Listener comments!
	9:03am Cheri Pi: Clicky Star 3 seconds in, Good morning Joe!
	9:03am DCE: morning Joe! Those aliens always alienate me with their quick dismissals of musics.
	9:04am Sem Chumbo: Hiya, Joe. Good morning, good opening groove!
	9:05am Joe McG: Cheri, good morning! Hey DCE--ALIEN-ate, like it! Hey, Sem! Welcome!
	9:06am common: morning cheri, dce, sem and joe. those aliens never cease to make me chuckle.
	👻 9:06am tim from champaign: Hey Joe and folks. Only 6 minutes tardy.
	9:07am Joe McG: Very impressed, tim! Hey, common! Welcome all.
	9:07am duke: I like this Cat mask tune. Good start. Even the aliens would like it.
	👻 9:10am tim from champaign: I listened to Bob Seger System's "Mongrel" last night. I have to say I like Bob Seger and his System much more than his Silver Bullet Band.
	9:11am Joe McG: @tim: Was there a big change of band members from System to Silver Bullet? I always thought they were more or less the same (hairy) dudes.
	👻 9:14am tim from champaign: Good question. Maybe they went from being long haired and side burneded to bearded with feathered hair. I think though that the difference is in the songs. I did not hear nary a beer or truck commercial on "Mongrel".
	👻 9:16am Brian in UK: Hello Joe, looking forward to Mr Forsyth not part 2?
	9:17am Joe McG: I think you have something there. Feathered hair = pickup truck ads. Hey, duke! Hey, Brian! There are four big parts. We'll make-do with one today!
	9:17am DCE: the continetal breakfast at the Solar Motel is astounding...
	9:20am KP: Like these instros
	9:21am KP: Don't go, Continental Breakfast ... It's toast
	👻 9:25am Brian in UK: @DCE It is full of stars there, you will fit in well.
	9:26am DCE: it's a very...LIGHT...breakfast!! hahahahahahahaha
	9:26am DCE: (dork alert)
	9:28am Joe McG: Don't worry, DCE, never too early for a dorky joke on this show.
	9:30am Marcel M: Damn awesome set so far
	👻 9:31am Brian in UK: @KP just read a piece with James Petralli of White Denim and he is 'obsessed with SF Sorrow especially Loneliest Person.
	👻 9:33am tim from champaign: I've got a fool proof scheme for the ultimate breakfast restaurant. It'll make me millions! I'm going to open a "jazz brunch" restaurant. Plus, it will be all fusion themed. Fusion jazz - Rippingtons, Spyro Gyra, etc; fusion foods - ie, eggs benedict with naan instead of English muffins. The restaurant is called........"Montage"! PM me if you'd like to make a 100% sound investment.
	9:34am tomasz.: this is great stuff right here
	9:36am Marcel M: oh baby wake up time
	9:36am Joe McG: @tim: I can't wait to have the pancakes in truffle oil at Montage.
	👻 9:38am Brian in UK: Joe there was some discussion on Bill Mac's show last week about Rhys Chatham and Glenn Branca. @Tim thanks but no thanks. Spyro Gyra. Granola and tripe. Yum.
	9:40am Joe McG: @Brian: Two peas in a pod. Or guitar case, as it were.
	👻 9:40am tim from champaign: Now you're talking, Joe. Excellent opening Guitar Army set for sure.
	9:41am duke: This has been one hell of a set.
	9:49am Joe McG: Glad y'all liked the geetars. Onward we go...
	9:51am Mike East: damn...looks like I missed a sweet first set. Glad to be catching more of the show than usual due to having to be at work earlier than usual. Gotta stay positive.
	👻 9:54am Brian in UK: Marlena Shaw puts me in mind of St Germain and Michael Shelley's premium.
	9:56am Guido (Cologne): Charles Stepney: arranger for Rotary Connection. (love his work.)
	9:56am Joe McG: Hey, Mike, welcome as always. @Brian: That live cut on Michael's premium is premium indeed.
	9:56am Joe McG: @Guido: Oh, man, and the Dells and so many others. Me, too!
	9:57am Guido (Cologne): the Dells, coool!
	9:59am Mike East: @Joe McG - I had an idea for fmu swag - bandanas. Would probably be reasonably cheap, and I'd want one or ten for sure. Don't know if its ever been done, but just throwin it out there.
	10:01am Joe McG: Ah, dew rag for the brainbox. Now that it's out there, it will be hard to resist, Mike. Thanks for the suggestion! Anybody else have swag ideas for the future?
	👻 10:03am Brian in UK: My dell is playing up. Man coming round tomorrow to look at it and fix it I hope.
	10:04am Sem Chumbo: Meghan leave some of her West African sides behind, Joe? This is great.
	10:04am Mike East: also works as a snot rag for the nose piece.
	10:04am Joe McG: @Sem: Ha, yes! Isn't this cool?
	10:05am trish: Fleece hats! Both sorta-tight and not-so-tight fitting varieties.
	10:05am βrian: A bandana is on my pre-departure checklist each morning. 100% cotton. Gotta have it.
	👻 10:05am Brian in UK: Sahel Sounds are copacetic. Support them.
	👻 10:06am 12539: J'aime beaucoup cet orgue.
	10:07am Mike East: (or handkerchief if you wanna be classy about it) @Brian, me too
	10:08am Joe McG: I like the hankie idea! Monogrammed with the logo, of course.
	10:09am βrian: For us on the isthmus a bandana is a handkerchief. Or a mini-scarf, etc. Even a coffee filter when camping.
	👻 10:09am Brian in UK: Getting a Jeeves and Wooster?
	10:09am Guido (Cologne): Anyone seen one of YMGs shows recently? Worthwhile?
	10:10am Joe McG: @Guido: I wish. Think they'll ever come to the US again?
	10:11am Mike East: @Brian - SO many uses, right? tourniquet, god forbid. napkin. etc.
	10:11am trish: Coffee sleeves, maybe? In thick, heavy felt. Better than plastic or paper.
	10:13am Mike East: ooh - togo coffee mugs! Although decent ones would probably cost a pretty penny and that's something you don't wanna skimp on. Nothing worse than a leaky togo cup.
	👻 10:13am tim from champaign: Woof Moo pint glasses? Might be pricey to ship.
	10:14am DCE: actually our local station in CLE had nice ceramic to-go mugs with a rubber-like cap, and their budget is just a wee might smaller than FMU's!
	👻 10:14am tim from champaign: A date with X Ray Burns?
	10:15am Joe McG: @tim: How many dates do you think we could convince him to go on?
	10:15am Mike East: @tim - I think a few years back they were giving away a date with Glen AND X.Ray. I don't think I could afford what it cost to be in the running, though.
	10:17am βrian: Why does the cow's belly contract at the end of the interaction? And was the result edited out?
	👻 10:18am tim from champaign: @Joe - Probably as many dates as you can bribe him with sandwiches. @Mike - I think the question is could you afford the emotional baggage you'd carry with you after a night with Jonesy and X Ray?
	10:22am Mike East: would like to get a list of gear that Juana Molina uses...
	10:24am Guido (Cologne): @Joe concerning YMG: maybe ask them directly ... www.facebook.com...
	10:25am Cheri Pi: I'm making due with my John Allen shot glass currently for all liquids, sure would be nice-but not necessary- to have something bigger to drink out of.
	10:25am Joe McG: Thanks, Guido, maybe I will!
	10:26am Guido (Cologne): Almost worked: - female version 45 RPM - male version 33 RPM
	10:28am Joe McG: @Guido: Perfect score, as usual!
	10:29am Cecile: snow is here! yay!
	10:31am βrian: Snow in the UP?
	👻 10:31am tim from champaign: @cecile - lucky duck! I love snow.
	10:32am Cecile: Snow in Minneapolis. I like it until February-ish. Then it gets a little old. But yay! snow.
	10:32am Parq: Cartoon a number of years back. Little green men getting out of a flying saucer. One goes up to an astonished earthling standing near and says: "We come from the planet Uranus -- AND WE'VE ALREADY HEARD ALL OF THEM."
	10:33am βrian: Here's a secret phonetics trick: to pronounce the french "u" (as in "du"), form your mouth to pronounce "ooooo", but say "eeee." Try it, it's fun!
	10:36am efd: Thumbs up for this lesser-known Carter-Lewis Ohio Express tune!
	10:36am Joe McG: I'm doing it right now, Brian. It keeps coming out OOOOO-WEEEE!
	10:37am Guido (Cologne): Thumbs up for Cozy Cole!
	10:38am Mike East: this IS fun, Brian.
	10:39am βrian: Clamp your fingers around your lips, so they won't move. (Then do the next back-announce ...)
	10:39am Davee: loving the 45's!
	👻 10:40am 12539: Also on the back-announce, chew gum and rub your stomach.
	10:41am Davee: I know some folks who need a lip clamp!
	10:42am steve: nice funk!
	10:42am Davee: funky fresh!
	10:45am Sem Chumbo: Funny comment, Joe. Totally agree: just say "no" to the extended version.
	10:47am paula pc: vocals so sharply recorded...nice stuff!!!! THANKS, Joe!!
	10:47am βrian: Get your embouchure on. You can do it!
	10:49am Joe McG: You bet, Paula pc! Nice to see you!
	10:50am Guido (Cologne): Who is Georgia Raye? Any info available?
	10:52am Joe McG: @Guido: I don't know nothin'! If you find something out, let me know. It's a fab record.
	10:55am Sem Chumbo: "I ain't giving up nothing" Perfect song for the mayor who's gonna smoke crack and get drunk and stay on the job. Oh, Toronto: gawker.com...
	10:58am trish: @Sem He's hosting 'take our kids to work day' wiht a bunch of grade 9ers. Not fit to coach a hs football team, and yet..
	11:01am Sem Chumbo: Trish: impossible environment for up and coming satirists in the Great White North, for sure.
	11:03am KP: Still have the touch for the Plum Pitiful.
	11:05am Cecile: I don't care if my elected officials are whoring it up or drugging it up as long as they are not using public funds or unable to do their job, or cracking down on the same behavior they are doing. Or hurting their family. If that all falls into place, then have at it, politicos! But unfortunately...
	11:05am glenn: hey! leave mayor bootygrabber alone!
	11:06am glenn: cecile, whooping it up is one thing, extortion and murder are another thing.
	11:07am Sem Chumbo: glenn: hoped you were listening/reading. So now you're an apologist for the Ford theatre?
	11:08am Cecile: glenn, ITA. That is just nuts. I'm just talking in general.
	11:09am glenn: oh fuck no. i've told everybody who will listen that he's a moron, and that everybody who voted for him is a moron. and his brother is worse.
	11:09am glenn: google anthony smith murder.
	11:09am Cecile: I'm just excited we have a woman DFL'er who is not part of the machine as mayor.
	11:10am trish: I like the 'Hey Kids!!' comedy is the very dark funny.
	11:11am Jeff: Jeez, Joe, I don't think we were listening to the same J. Jonn Jones lyrics. I heard a whole different set of plot points from what you summarized in your talkin' time.
	11:11am Cecile: Joe, SF Seals and Brian Manning are a good way to transition into the 90s.
	11:11am Cecile: Play Fraternity! Bon Scott!
	11:11am Cecile: YAYAYAYAYYAYAYAY
	11:12am trish: Er, 'it's the very dark funny'. Making light and dark.
	11:12am Cecile: I miss him and Captain Beefheart every damn day of my life.
	11:13am Joe McG: @Jeff: It's like those records with the horse race where the outcome is different every time you play it! @Cecile: Hi, Cecile! Glad you like the Bonnie.
	11:17am Cecile: Oh this is cool. My favorite six songs on Pandora: Love Cry - Four Tet Quimbara [Live] - Celia Cruz The Battle Of New Orleans - Johnny Horton Atx237 V.7 - Aphex Twin Lost - Plastikman Pirana - Hector Lavoe
	11:17am Cecile: I would have never guessed anything but the Johnny Horton.
	👻 11:18am tim from champaign: @glenn - so you don't buy Ford's "I'm just a beer-swilling lunkhead who's sticking it top the man" schtick?
	👻 11:20am Brian in UK: @Cecile bum buddy biddy biddy bim bum baa. Cruz Rules.
	11:20am Cecile: play some Coloured Balls
	11:20am Cecile: Brian, she does!
	👻 11:21am tim from champaign: I wonder if Beta Band ever listened to Tully?
	11:21am Cheri Pi: What Cecile requested! I won a Coloured Balls LP last year from BT's show.
	11:22am Jeff: @Joe: I'm always on the edge of my seat when Pride and Heartache are tearing around that track.
	11:22am Cecile: Frodo....hahahahahahaha
	11:22am glenn: no i don't, and i never did. he's a criminal. his whole family are criminals.
	👻 11:22am tim from champaign: I recently picked up a Rose Tattoo LP. I love it.
	👻 11:23am Brian in UK: @glenn the brothers are the dodgy ones. Think Carter. Billy beer?
	11:23am Cecile: Roger Clinton, bless his heart.
	11:24am glenn: read this. www.vice.com...
	11:24am trish: But @glenn, he returns phone calls. He solves tier 1 support calls.
	11:24am Cecile: you could follow that up with "Frodo, don't wear the ring" by FOTC. hahaha
	11:25am Cecile: this sounds like Martin Philipps listened to a lot of Tull in the off years.
	👻 11:26am Brian in UK: First you have to find the heart. This M&S is out of the blue.
	11:26am Joe McG: Cat Stevens cover, lovely!
	11:26am Cecile: God, Glenn, this disillusions me. This isn't the earnest, clean-living Toronto of Flashpoint!
	11:27am glenn: he's never once returned one of mine.
	11:27am Cecile: Keith Mars runs a tight, but caring ship.
	11:28am glenn: my old pal hugh dillon is the star of flashpoint, and also the singer for the headstones.
	11:29am Cecile: Between you and me, he's a hottie for sure. That's really cool. He's a great character. For a show like that, it's really well-acted and only moderately eye-rolling.
	👻 11:30am Brian in UK: Oh those flat vowels.
	11:31am Joe McG: @Brian: Ha ha ha!
	11:31am trish: What shitty tv sitcom can the necon nonsense in Canada be compared to, I wonder? It is all pretty much a rerun from elsewhere. Jobs were driven north, I figure.
	11:32am Cecile: play M
	11:33am glenn: it's the wire, the sopranos, and the beachcombers rolled into one, with a script written by wayne and shuster.
	11:33am Cecile: trish, probably Charlie Sheen's horrible sitcom Anger Management.
	11:33am Cecile: Beachcombers! hahahahah we watched that growing up
	11:34am Andrew Waterloo: @trish, probably Home Improvement. It's not threatening, it's not funny, it's just tedious and dumb.
	11:34am Parq: 'Cile, this is as good a time as any to mention that Mayor Ryback was a college pal of mine. We lived across the dorm hall from each other freshman year.
	11:35am Cecile: That's cool, Parq. He's done a lot of good for the city, if I've disagreed with him on individual points here and there.
	11:36am trish: It's gotta make life worse for parents. Some shitty teen crap.
	11:37am Cecile: how about Unhappily Ever After? It made enough episodes to go into syndication, but nobody apart from Croatia and Germany ever airs it because it's so crappy.
	11:37am trish: Spongebob? Barney ? It hits the tedium time range pretty well.
	11:37am Cecile: THANK YOU!!!!
	11:37am Cecile: BALL POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	11:38am Parq: You wouldn't believe how much his appearance has changed, 'Cile. The first time I saw a news photo of him from his mayoralty, I thought maybe someone else was using the name somehow.
	11:38am Joe McG: How can I deny Cecile AND Cheri Pi?
	11:38am Cecile: I'll bet!!! aw joe!!!
	11:41am Whosondephone: YEAHHHHHH!!! BABBY!!!
	👻 11:47am tim from champaign: Jim Price has a nice singing voice.
	11:48am Joe McG: @tim: You should ask him to sing a little something on his show next week!
	11:49am jamesie: just packing my wife's Dylan Books and CDs Records into cardboard boxes. It runs to 12 large
	11:49am kat330: Wow -- Dylan's pipes never sounded so smooth. L♥ve this. Thanks, Joe.
	👻 11:49am Brian in UK: In Dutch.
	11:50am SeanG: Zimmy!
	11:50am Chris M.: great show today
	11:52am Joe McG: Sure, kat! Thanks, Chris!
	👻 11:52am Brian in UK: It is dark, damp and cold right now. Beer o'clock.
	11:53am Parq: "Sign on the Window" was originally from the "New Morning" album. Less than a half-hour long, it is unlike any other Dylan album I know, and must surely have been an inspiration to other off-mainstream singer-songwriters like Allen Price and Nick Drake.
	11:53am northguineahills: Man, another great show, Joe!
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: Nice one, Joe. Glug, glug.
	11:55am Sem Chumbo: Much obliged for the past three hours, Joe. Been a real treat, thanks. Next time!
	11:55am Joe McG: Thanks for listening, everybody! Have a great Thursday, weekend, and week!
	11:57am Mike East: thanks for dj'ing, Joe!
	👻 11:58am 12539: Great show, Joe!
	11:58am Parq: Smooth sailing, Joe.
	11:59am trish: And lovely listening.
	11:59am Greg from Bloomfield: Thanks, Joe!
	11:59am Mike Noble: Zamrock indeed.

	👻 9:10am tim from champaign: I listened to Bob Seger System's "Mongrel" last night. I have to say I like Bob Seger and his System much more than his Silver Bullet Band.
	9:11am Joe McG: @tim: Was there a big change of band members from System to Silver Bullet? I always thought they were more or less the same (hairy) dudes.
	👻 9:14am tim from champaign: Good question. Maybe they went from being long haired and side burneded to bearded with feathered hair. I think though that the difference is in the songs. I did not hear nary a beer or truck commercial on "Mongrel".
	👻 9:16am Brian in UK: Hello Joe, looking forward to Mr Forsyth not part 2?
	9:17am Joe McG: I think you have something there. Feathered hair = pickup truck ads. Hey, duke! Hey, Brian! There are four big parts. We'll make-do with one today!
	9:17am DCE: the continetal breakfast at the Solar Motel is astounding...
	9:20am KP: Like these instros
	9:21am KP: Don't go, Continental Breakfast ... It's toast
	👻 9:25am Brian in UK: @DCE It is full of stars there, you will fit in well.
	9:26am DCE: it's a very...LIGHT...breakfast!! hahahahahahahaha
	9:26am DCE: (dork alert)
	9:28am Joe McG: Don't worry, DCE, never too early for a dorky joke on this show.
	9:30am Marcel M: Damn awesome set so far
	👻 9:31am Brian in UK: @KP just read a piece with James Petralli of White Denim and he is 'obsessed with SF Sorrow especially Loneliest Person.
	👻 9:33am tim from champaign: I've got a fool proof scheme for the ultimate breakfast restaurant. It'll make me millions! I'm going to open a "jazz brunch" restaurant. Plus, it will be all fusion themed. Fusion jazz - Rippingtons, Spyro Gyra, etc; fusion foods - ie, eggs benedict with naan instead of English muffins. The restaurant is called........"Montage"! PM me if you'd like to make a 100% sound investment.
	9:34am tomasz.: this is great stuff right here
	9:36am Marcel M: oh baby wake up time
	9:36am Joe McG: @tim: I can't wait to have the pancakes in truffle oil at Montage.
	👻 9:38am Brian in UK: Joe there was some discussion on Bill Mac's show last week about Rhys Chatham and Glenn Branca. @Tim thanks but no thanks. Spyro Gyra. Granola and tripe. Yum.
	9:40am Joe McG: @Brian: Two peas in a pod. Or guitar case, as it were.
	👻 9:40am tim from champaign: Now you're talking, Joe. Excellent opening Guitar Army set for sure.
	9:41am duke: This has been one hell of a set.
	9:49am Joe McG: Glad y'all liked the geetars. Onward we go...
	9:51am Mike East: damn...looks like I missed a sweet first set. Glad to be catching more of the show than usual due to having to be at work earlier than usual. Gotta stay positive.
	👻 9:54am Brian in UK: Marlena Shaw puts me in mind of St Germain and Michael Shelley's premium.
	9:56am Guido (Cologne): Charles Stepney: arranger for Rotary Connection. (love his work.)
	9:56am Joe McG: Hey, Mike, welcome as always. @Brian: That live cut on Michael's premium is premium indeed.
	9:56am Joe McG: @Guido: Oh, man, and the Dells and so many others. Me, too!
	9:57am Guido (Cologne): the Dells, coool!
	9:59am Mike East: @Joe McG - I had an idea for fmu swag - bandanas. Would probably be reasonably cheap, and I'd want one or ten for sure. Don't know if its ever been done, but just throwin it out there.
	10:01am Joe McG: Ah, dew rag for the brainbox. Now that it's out there, it will be hard to resist, Mike. Thanks for the suggestion! Anybody else have swag ideas for the future?
	👻 10:03am Brian in UK: My dell is playing up. Man coming round tomorrow to look at it and fix it I hope.
	10:04am Sem Chumbo: Meghan leave some of her West African sides behind, Joe? This is great.
	10:04am Mike East: also works as a snot rag for the nose piece.
	10:04am Joe McG: @Sem: Ha, yes! Isn't this cool?
	10:05am trish: Fleece hats! Both sorta-tight and not-so-tight fitting varieties.
	10:05am βrian: A bandana is on my pre-departure checklist each morning. 100% cotton. Gotta have it.
	👻 10:05am Brian in UK: Sahel Sounds are copacetic. Support them.
	👻 10:06am 12539: J'aime beaucoup cet orgue.
	10:07am Mike East: (or handkerchief if you wanna be classy about it) @Brian, me too
	10:08am Joe McG: I like the hankie idea! Monogrammed with the logo, of course.
	10:09am βrian: For us on the isthmus a bandana is a handkerchief. Or a mini-scarf, etc. Even a coffee filter when camping.
	👻 10:09am Brian in UK: Getting a Jeeves and Wooster?
	10:09am Guido (Cologne): Anyone seen one of YMGs shows recently? Worthwhile?
	10:10am Joe McG: @Guido: I wish. Think they'll ever come to the US again?
	10:11am Mike East: @Brian - SO many uses, right? tourniquet, god forbid. napkin. etc.
	10:11am trish: Coffee sleeves, maybe? In thick, heavy felt. Better than plastic or paper.
	10:13am Mike East: ooh - togo coffee mugs! Although decent ones would probably cost a pretty penny and that's something you don't wanna skimp on. Nothing worse than a leaky togo cup.
	👻 10:13am tim from champaign: Woof Moo pint glasses? Might be pricey to ship.
	10:14am DCE: actually our local station in CLE had nice ceramic to-go mugs with a rubber-like cap, and their budget is just a wee might smaller than FMU's!
	👻 10:14am tim from champaign: A date with X Ray Burns?
	10:15am Joe McG: @tim: How many dates do you think we could convince him to go on?
	10:15am Mike East: @tim - I think a few years back they were giving away a date with Glen AND X.Ray. I don't think I could afford what it cost to be in the running, though.
	10:17am βrian: Why does the cow's belly contract at the end of the interaction? And was the result edited out?
	👻 10:18am tim from champaign: @Joe - Probably as many dates as you can bribe him with sandwiches. @Mike - I think the question is could you afford the emotional baggage you'd carry with you after a night with Jonesy and X Ray?
	10:22am Mike East: would like to get a list of gear that Juana Molina uses...
	10:24am Guido (Cologne): @Joe concerning YMG: maybe ask them directly ... www.facebook.com...
	10:25am Cheri Pi: I'm making due with my John Allen shot glass currently for all liquids, sure would be nice-but not necessary- to have something bigger to drink out of.
	10:25am Joe McG: Thanks, Guido, maybe I will!
	10:26am Guido (Cologne): Almost worked: - female version 45 RPM - male version 33 RPM
	10:28am Joe McG: @Guido: Perfect score, as usual!
	10:29am Cecile: snow is here! yay!
	10:31am βrian: Snow in the UP?
	👻 10:31am tim from champaign: @cecile - lucky duck! I love snow.
	10:32am Cecile: Snow in Minneapolis. I like it until February-ish. Then it gets a little old. But yay! snow.
	10:32am Parq: Cartoon a number of years back. Little green men getting out of a flying saucer. One goes up to an astonished earthling standing near and says: "We come from the planet Uranus -- AND WE'VE ALREADY HEARD ALL OF THEM."
	10:33am βrian: Here's a secret phonetics trick: to pronounce the french "u" (as in "du"), form your mouth to pronounce "ooooo", but say "eeee." Try it, it's fun!
	10:36am efd: Thumbs up for this lesser-known Carter-Lewis Ohio Express tune!
	10:36am Joe McG: I'm doing it right now, Brian. It keeps coming out OOOOO-WEEEE!
	10:37am Guido (Cologne): Thumbs up for Cozy Cole!
	10:38am Mike East: this IS fun, Brian.
	10:39am βrian: Clamp your fingers around your lips, so they won't move. (Then do the next back-announce ...)
	10:39am Davee: loving the 45's!
	👻 10:40am 12539: Also on the back-announce, chew gum and rub your stomach.
	10:41am Davee: I know some folks who need a lip clamp!
	10:42am steve: nice funk!
	10:42am Davee: funky fresh!
	10:45am Sem Chumbo: Funny comment, Joe. Totally agree: just say "no" to the extended version.
	10:47am paula pc: vocals so sharply recorded...nice stuff!!!! THANKS, Joe!!
	10:47am βrian: Get your embouchure on. You can do it!
	10:49am Joe McG: You bet, Paula pc! Nice to see you!
	10:50am Guido (Cologne): Who is Georgia Raye? Any info available?
	10:52am Joe McG: @Guido: I don't know nothin'! If you find something out, let me know. It's a fab record.
	10:55am Sem Chumbo: "I ain't giving up nothing" Perfect song for the mayor who's gonna smoke crack and get drunk and stay on the job. Oh, Toronto: gawker.com...
	10:58am trish: @Sem He's hosting 'take our kids to work day' wiht a bunch of grade 9ers. Not fit to coach a hs football team, and yet..
	11:01am Sem Chumbo: Trish: impossible environment for up and coming satirists in the Great White North, for sure.
	11:03am KP: Still have the touch for the Plum Pitiful.
	11:05am Cecile: I don't care if my elected officials are whoring it up or drugging it up as long as they are not using public funds or unable to do their job, or cracking down on the same behavior they are doing. Or hurting their family. If that all falls into place, then have at it, politicos! But unfortunately...
	11:05am glenn: hey! leave mayor bootygrabber alone!
	11:06am glenn: cecile, whooping it up is one thing, extortion and murder are another thing.
	11:07am Sem Chumbo: glenn: hoped you were listening/reading. So now you're an apologist for the Ford theatre?
	11:08am Cecile: glenn, ITA. That is just nuts. I'm just talking in general.
	11:09am glenn: oh fuck no. i've told everybody who will listen that he's a moron, and that everybody who voted for him is a moron. and his brother is worse.
	11:09am glenn: google anthony smith murder.
	11:09am Cecile: I'm just excited we have a woman DFL'er who is not part of the machine as mayor.
	11:10am trish: I like the 'Hey Kids!!' comedy is the very dark funny.
	11:11am Jeff: Jeez, Joe, I don't think we were listening to the same J. Jonn Jones lyrics. I heard a whole different set of plot points from what you summarized in your talkin' time.
	11:11am Cecile: Joe, SF Seals and Brian Manning are a good way to transition into the 90s.
	11:11am Cecile: Play Fraternity! Bon Scott!
	11:11am Cecile: YAYAYAYAYYAYAYAY
	11:12am trish: Er, 'it's the very dark funny'. Making light and dark.
	11:12am Cecile: I miss him and Captain Beefheart every damn day of my life.
	11:13am Joe McG: @Jeff: It's like those records with the horse race where the outcome is different every time you play it! @Cecile: Hi, Cecile! Glad you like the Bonnie.
	11:17am Cecile: Oh this is cool. My favorite six songs on Pandora: Love Cry - Four Tet Quimbara [Live] - Celia Cruz The Battle Of New Orleans - Johnny Horton Atx237 V.7 - Aphex Twin Lost - Plastikman Pirana - Hector Lavoe
	11:17am Cecile: I would have never guessed anything but the Johnny Horton.
	👻 11:18am tim from champaign: @glenn - so you don't buy Ford's "I'm just a beer-swilling lunkhead who's sticking it top the man" schtick?
	👻 11:20am Brian in UK: @Cecile bum buddy biddy biddy bim bum baa. Cruz Rules.
	11:20am Cecile: play some Coloured Balls
	11:20am Cecile: Brian, she does!
	👻 11:21am tim from champaign: I wonder if Beta Band ever listened to Tully?
	11:21am Cheri Pi: What Cecile requested! I won a Coloured Balls LP last year from BT's show.
	11:22am Jeff: @Joe: I'm always on the edge of my seat when Pride and Heartache are tearing around that track.
	11:22am Cecile: Frodo....hahahahahahaha
	11:22am glenn: no i don't, and i never did. he's a criminal. his whole family are criminals.
	👻 11:22am tim from champaign: I recently picked up a Rose Tattoo LP. I love it.
	👻 11:23am Brian in UK: @glenn the brothers are the dodgy ones. Think Carter. Billy beer?
	11:23am Cecile: Roger Clinton, bless his heart.
	11:24am glenn: read this. www.vice.com...
	11:24am trish: But @glenn, he returns phone calls. He solves tier 1 support calls.
	11:24am Cecile: you could follow that up with "Frodo, don't wear the ring" by FOTC. hahaha
	11:25am Cecile: this sounds like Martin Philipps listened to a lot of Tull in the off years.
	👻 11:26am Brian in UK: First you have to find the heart. This M&S is out of the blue.
	11:26am Joe McG: Cat Stevens cover, lovely!
	11:26am Cecile: God, Glenn, this disillusions me. This isn't the earnest, clean-living Toronto of Flashpoint!
	11:27am glenn: he's never once returned one of mine.
	11:27am Cecile: Keith Mars runs a tight, but caring ship.
	11:28am glenn: my old pal hugh dillon is the star of flashpoint, and also the singer for the headstones.
	11:29am Cecile: Between you and me, he's a hottie for sure. That's really cool. He's a great character. For a show like that, it's really well-acted and only moderately eye-rolling.
	👻 11:30am Brian in UK: Oh those flat vowels.
	11:31am Joe McG: @Brian: Ha ha ha!
	11:31am trish: What shitty tv sitcom can the necon nonsense in Canada be compared to, I wonder? It is all pretty much a rerun from elsewhere. Jobs were driven north, I figure.
	11:32am Cecile: play M
	11:33am glenn: it's the wire, the sopranos, and the beachcombers rolled into one, with a script written by wayne and shuster.
	11:33am Cecile: trish, probably Charlie Sheen's horrible sitcom Anger Management.
	11:33am Cecile: Beachcombers! hahahahah we watched that growing up
	11:34am Andrew Waterloo: @trish, probably Home Improvement. It's not threatening, it's not funny, it's just tedious and dumb.
	11:34am Parq: 'Cile, this is as good a time as any to mention that Mayor Ryback was a college pal of mine. We lived across the dorm hall from each other freshman year.
	11:35am Cecile: That's cool, Parq. He's done a lot of good for the city, if I've disagreed with him on individual points here and there.
	11:36am trish: It's gotta make life worse for parents. Some shitty teen crap.
	11:37am Cecile: how about Unhappily Ever After? It made enough episodes to go into syndication, but nobody apart from Croatia and Germany ever airs it because it's so crappy.
	11:37am trish: Spongebob? Barney ? It hits the tedium time range pretty well.
	11:37am Cecile: THANK YOU!!!!
	11:37am Cecile: BALL POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	11:38am Parq: You wouldn't believe how much his appearance has changed, 'Cile. The first time I saw a news photo of him from his mayoralty, I thought maybe someone else was using the name somehow.
	11:38am Joe McG: How can I deny Cecile AND Cheri Pi?
	11:38am Cecile: I'll bet!!! aw joe!!!
	11:41am Whosondephone: YEAHHHHHH!!! BABBY!!!
	👻 11:47am tim from champaign: Jim Price has a nice singing voice.
	11:48am Joe McG: @tim: You should ask him to sing a little something on his show next week!
	11:49am jamesie: just packing my wife's Dylan Books and CDs Records into cardboard boxes. It runs to 12 large
	11:49am kat330: Wow -- Dylan's pipes never sounded so smooth. L♥ve this. Thanks, Joe.
	👻 11:49am Brian in UK: In Dutch.
	11:50am SeanG: Zimmy!
	11:50am Chris M.: great show today
	11:52am Joe McG: Sure, kat! Thanks, Chris!
	👻 11:52am Brian in UK: It is dark, damp and cold right now. Beer o'clock.
	11:53am Parq: "Sign on the Window" was originally from the "New Morning" album. Less than a half-hour long, it is unlike any other Dylan album I know, and must surely have been an inspiration to other off-mainstream singer-songwriters like Allen Price and Nick Drake.
	11:53am northguineahills: Man, another great show, Joe!
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: Nice one, Joe. Glug, glug.
	11:55am Sem Chumbo: Much obliged for the past three hours, Joe. Been a real treat, thanks. Next time!
	11:55am Joe McG: Thanks for listening, everybody! Have a great Thursday, weekend, and week!
	11:57am Mike East: thanks for dj'ing, Joe!
	👻 11:58am 12539: Great show, Joe!
	11:58am Parq: Smooth sailing, Joe.
	11:59am trish: And lovely listening.
	11:59am Greg from Bloomfield: Thanks, Joe!
	11:59am Mike Noble: Zamrock indeed.
