	9:15am Itzall Ablurr: Good morning Joe, hope you are having a fine day.

	9:25am mb: Good morning to you , Joe!
	👻 9:27am tadpoles: An FMU Dj is like a collagist...putting together a new piece of art for our enjoyment each week. Already your picture is looking great Joe. Thanks!
	9:27am Joe McG: Good morning, folks! @tadpoles: What a nice way to put it. Sometimes my collage comes out like a kid's drawing, but today I'm feeling like Picasso! :)

	9:43am davefromtoronto: was she a drag queen? sounds like it.
	9:44am Jeff: Yes, we've definitely found the inspiration for one of Mr. Lane's theatrical declaiming styles. All the rest of y'all probably realized this years ago.
	9:44am JakeGould: Sophie Tucker is a theme.
	9:47am Cheri Pi: sounds perfect @Joe
	9:47am themutante: Thanks for your service, Joe.
	9:47am Whosondephone: You sound like you have a stuffy nose.
	9:47am Jeff: Nope, you're right maybe too close in the room here at home over the speakers.
	9:48am JakeGould: You know how I have said your voice for the past few weeks sounded too dead center in the mix? Now this week. You now sound perfectly in line with your bed music today.
	9:50am Matt Warwick: I LOVE British Joe Mcgasko
	9:50am Jeff: !!
	9:50am Whosondephone: I think Ken was trying to play is IPhone into the mic through his eustachian tube again.
	9:51am Jeff: Joey Meatpies.
	9:53am thedunkel: Uncle Joe's Listening Party (Extravaganza)!
	9:54am BEAVO: Marion Davies was famous for being the MISTRESS OF Hearst she was never his wife,quite a scandal at the time.
	9:54am BnowB: I know your voice. Your very kind on radio. 30 year listener and know most DJ's by their voice. lol Cheers have a great day everybody.
	9:55am BnowB: love this song! :) smiles
	9:55am Greg from ZONE 5: NICELY PLAYED
	9:55am Cheri Pi: !!!
	9:56am The Oscar: Whoa-- heard this song in an art supply store in western Mass on Saturday, and it's been stuck in my head ALL WEEKEND. Freaky!
	9:56am frozen_peas: I get super nostalgic every time I hear this song.
	9:58am Kagi: Me too, frozen_peas. Me, too.
	9:59am Joe McG: This song sounds even better to me now than it did then.
	9:59am JakeGould: Very 80s.
	10:00am Joe McG: @TheOscar: That's crazy! I swear I wasn't in western Mass this weekend.
	10:01am βrian: Oh Laetitia.
	10:02am howard in nyc: I don't feel quite as sad when I hear that first New Order album. Still, a little sad.
	10:03am Itzall Ablurr: I may run out of stars if this continues... Latetia Sadier S.E. helps ease the pain of no more you-know-whoey-o-lab
	10:03am Uncle Michael: "Committed" sure is lovely.
	10:07am Joe McG: @itzall: I can't wait to see her here in August.
	10:07am Jeff: Ooh - and Lætitia Sadier offers an opportunity to bust out the "æ" glyph!
	10:08am JakeGould: I was listening to some Genesis this weekend. They are better than the crappy “Phil Collins is lame” detractors would make one think.
	10:09am The Oscar: (without checking player) "Who is this?" (drum fill) "Ahhhh."
	10:10am Itzall Ablurr: Dear JakeGould, I couldn't agree more. It may be cool (?) to dislike him, but he has given the world a lot of great music, sue-sue-sudio notwithstanding.
	10:10am maestroso: Wow, haven't heard this in years. Reminds me of why I liked it back then.
	10:10am Joe McG: @Jeff: I just have to observe that I'm stunned by your early rising today, Jeff! Hope everything is OK.
	10:12am Jeff: It's a mystery to me as well. Popped awake early and decided to go with it instead of lying there angry that I wasn't sleeping. Don't worry, I'll be miserable later in the day.
	10:12am Wendy del Formaggio: Good morning, Joe! Ooh, I hear the opening strains of Yo La Tengo. Is "strain" the right word? That seems so...negative. As if it's an effort to listen. It's too bad I'm not a writer and could figure this out on my own.
	10:14am Jeff: @Wendy: Too bad you're not, like, a journalist or anything.
	10:14am Summer and Michael: Ah, this Yo La Tengo record brings back some memories. So sweet. Great show, as ever, Joe.
	10:14am Joe McG: @Wendy: Don't worry, Wendy, someday you'll be able to put a few words together. ;)
	10:15am Greg from ZONE 5: I already have my YLT Marathon request in my pocket. Looking to go 3-for-3…
	10:16am Joe McG: @S&M: Isn't that a pretty one? @Greg: I'm dying to know what it is!
	10:18am Wendy del Formaggio: @Jeff and Joe: Yeah, I keep hoping there's hope for me.
	10:19am Wendy del Formaggio: @Greg: Does this mean you won't do your laundry until late-Feb/early-March? I mean, what if the ink runs on the little piece of paper where you've written your request? I suggest a tattoo.
	10:19am Joe McG: @Itzall: This is a little hard to admit, but I kind of like "Sussudio."
	10:22am melinda: Hi folks!
	10:23am Charley C: What was that song about 1 hour and 40 minutes into Glen Jones' 6/25 show. And who did that song? The one about a guy complaining to his woman about her throwing tables in his face.
	10:25am Joe McG: @Charley: Maybe some of the listeners might know?
	10:28am Itzall Ablurr: Seriously, I'll take "Sussudio" over that super annoying, not even fun ironically Felder song in a heartbeat.
	10:28am βrian: Gray skies over Otis' isthmus today.
	10:30am melinda: Darn, missed the Collins.
	10:30am JakeGould: Phil Collins is better than any Millennial Whoop song.
	10:30am MD: Stereolab at the House???
	👻 10:32am tadpoles: "Hold Me" is an old PJ Proby hit. Great stuff!
	10:34am The Oscar: Speaking of Mr. Collins, here's a pretty great patch I stumbled across recently: notbadluck.bigcartel.com...
	10:34am coelacanth∅: 'morning Joe and all
	10:35am pantz: Oh Wow! General Public and New Order in one show. I'm transported to the Orange Julius.
	10:35am Joe McG: Hey Will, if you're listening, there's some oboe on this record!
	10:37am herb.nyc: hi all. i've mentioned this before, but, when first GENERAL PUBIC record came out they were giving it away at the ritz (now webster hall, later to be...). i went in the afternoon and it was kinda sparse.
	10:38am steveo: Hi! Sorry I'm late! Will check archives later for cubist masterpiece!
	10:39am herb.nyc: i'm a semi-collector of music poop, but why don't people bring vinyl to sell, outside this book store tonight, for collectors will be there: www.mcnallyjackson.com...
	10:41am The Oscar: This song is delightful.
	10:41am Wendy del Formaggio: Oh my goodness. "Puppy Dog Song" is my new theme song.
	10:41am Mick: That is a bassett hound of a bass line if I've ever heard one - in the best possible sense.
	10:42am Joe McG: @Mick: Good ears! Chuck Rainey solo project!
	10:42am KH in Bloomington: Just got me a puppy dog and her name is Frankie. Good karma!
	10:43am Joe McG: @KH: Amazing! That segueway was meant to be!
	10:46am Wendy del Formaggio: Are you going to play "Run Joey Run" by David Geddes next?
	10:47am JakeGould: I don’t know about this “poor little white trash” ditty despite the fact it speaks a lot to me. A tad too literal.
	10:47am Listener Alexandra: Good morning, Joe! And I thought maybe I was still half asleep, but you did really find a song called "Poor Little White Trash"....
	10:48am Whosondephone: Transmitter work 91.1?
	10:48am Joe McG: @Wendy: No, but I wish I had Dionne's "Windows of the World" on 45. That little riff at the end of "Poor Little White Trash" is a direct lift of that riff. @Alex: I did, I did!
	10:48am johnk77: broadcast signal at 91.1 is faltering show is great listening in south bronx only static at this moment
	10:48am melinda: @Jake what is a millennial whoop song?
	10:48am Wild Neil: People say "redneck" when they really mean "poor white trash"...and they don't know the difference anyfuxkingway. Ignorant pricks.
	10:49am Brendan: Good morning . Love the duck on the 1 beat of this song
	10:49am Wendy del Formaggio: @Joe: Ooh, I missed that. I'll go back later to the archives. I wish you had Dionne's "Windows" too. What a fabulous song.
	10:49am krissy b: 91.1 ain't workinnnnnn
	10:49am Listener Alexandra: Well done as always, Joe!
	10:50am Joe McG: @johnk77 & krissyb: Oops, bad news! I'm sure Ken and Jeff are on the case as I write this.
	10:52am JakeGould: @melinda: There is no specific song called “Millennial Whoop” but it’s rather a vocal phrasing (?) in more tha a few modern pop songs. Google it. Wah oh wah oh!
	10:53am Stay Frosty: I need my morning fix of Joe McG!!! Break the silence!!!
	10:54am -Ken: @krissy @stayforsty - thanks! Working on it now
	10:54am Agent Peter: #fakewfmu
	10:55am Stay Frosty: You're the man, Ken. You're the man.
	10:57am Jeremy: Strangely, the signal seems to have moved from 91.1 to 91.9 in Manhattan.
	10:57am themutante: listen to that cheese
	10:57am herb.nyc: wfmu fm not working? the stereo is on at home, for my cat. she's probably tearing up the place. tho she likes andy breckman, so maybe she's saying "oh good".
	10:58am -Ken: No power at the transmitter site, so 91.1 fm could be down for anywhere from 5 minutes to 5 hours.
	10:58am Kurt Gottschalk: you totally had time for another single, dammit.
	👻 10:58am Ken From Hyde Park: Hamsters, activate!
	👻 10:59am doctorjazz: OOO, sad,, sounding fine through the Pop-up.
	11:00am Jeremy: Weird! If the power is down, how am I able to listen on 91.9??
	11:00am βrian: "Que sera sera," says Doris
	11:02am Stay Frosty: This is karmic payback for Joe only playing Yes once every ten years. I think that Comet Kahoutek will be swinging by around the same time.
	11:02am herb.nyc: @Jeremy - if you can hear wfmu on fm, then play extra loud and open yr windows.
	11:04am Agent Peter: Yeah, 91.9 fine in Manhattan..
	11:04am Caroline: Phil Collins/ Yes= slippery slope my friend. Easy does it.
	11:06am βrian: Uncle Michael has played Kansas, but maybe the stream is a bit more resilient.
	11:07am Jeremy: @Herb: I would, but I boarded up all my windows after Drumpf got elected.
	11:08am The Oscar: I get unreasonably excited whenever lost silent movies are uncovered and shown. Still holding out hope for London After Midnight.
	👻 11:09am Webhamster Henry: You can read a little more about Marion Davies in the excellent if possibly fictitious in places memoir "BRING ON THE GIRLS!" by P.G. Wodehouse on his theatrical life with partner Guy Bolton.
	11:11am Wild Neil: I LOVE me some STYX. They really rock. Un-ironically. Also the Knack. And The Cars Candy-O. Its like the stuff that Clay plays which is awesome power pop. I also like 75 dollar bill, Horse Lords and Dirty Beaches. And Merl Haggard. Its the Redneck in me I'm sure.
	11:11am Carmichael: Heya Joe and Monday people. Lots of Ms. Sadier and Tremeloes this past weekend.
	11:11am herb.nyc: @Jeremy - Drumpf entering thru our windows, like zombies impolitely do. and George Romero died, and Film Forum is showing his "night of the living dead" in oct (i think). it's all connected.
	11:11am knowitall@aol.com: The Marion Davies reputation comes mainly from Citizen Kane. Welles himself says he went too far in his portrayal of her.
	11:14am Brendan: Sweet jam
	11:21am Joe McG: Some helpful notes for you about the songs: "Luces blancas" is about when cars pass each other and there are headlights and also traffic lights reflecting on each other; "El Mar" is about the sea; "Tricotosa" is a type of toy sewing machine popular with a generation of kids in Spain.
	11:22am Joe McG: Here is a link to Isasa's bandcamp page: isasa.bandcamp.com... I'll announce some upcoming tour dates shortly.
	11:24am wendyfaye: Saw him Saturday at a tiny show in Philly. Was feeling sad and it cheered me up immensely. Was suprised to hear it again this morning, a very pleasant suprise and nice reminder to stay in a good place. Thank-you!
	11:26am Joe McG: @wendyfaye: So glad you caught him! For local folks, he'll be back in the area this coming Saturday playing Troost in Brooklyn.
	11:27am Own CrabappleSatellite Johnzon: Good morning! Good job! You are a true Armenian hero WFMU DJ! I have a request... play some Univore! Or just... check out Univore at your leisure! Really just trying to spread awareness of my pals Univore!.... ... .... Univore! www.youtube.com... if you're not familiar, their most popular video is "champagne taste" but there are a bunch of other good ones... basically everything they do is good but I particularly like Angela, Scorpions & Brazil, Ghost of Me, Vendetta, I've been trying to run into you, and Indulgences.
	👻 11:27am doctorjazz: This is LOVELY! I'd go se him it he's around the NY/NJ area. Brooklyn, huh?
	11:27am steveo: Joe: cool! tri·cot ˈtrēkō/ noun a fine knitted fabric made of a natural or man-made fiber.
	11:27am steveo: also, Tricot is a math rock band from Kyoto, Japan. Known for their intricate rhythms and visual identity, they have released four EPs and three full-length albums.
	11:29am Greg from ZONE 5: Soothing sounds
	11:29am Joe McG: More notes: "Aina" is apparently referencing a Spanish hardcore band of the '90s! Apparently Isasa used to be in the hardcore scene back then. @OwnCrab: Will check them out, thanks! @drjazz: Yes, a very nice intimate spot in Brooklyn next Saturday. I'll announce the other dates, too, in case some of you are listening in North Carolina or Maryland. He's in Durham tonight, Asheville on Tuesday, Chapel Hill on Thursday, Baltimore on Friday, and Brooklyn is the tour end on Saturday.
	11:30am Joe McG: @steveo: Never heard of tricot, but that makes perfect sense, thks!
	11:32am βrian: Math rock? That's Sesame Street, right?
	11:33am Carmichael: I though math rock was an after school special.
	11:33am ike: @Itzall@10:28, agreed! But then I'd also take being vomited on by a rhino over Don Felder. (But preferably, a rhino vomiting on Don Felder. While eagles peck him for slandering their good bird name.)
	11:34am Andal: very soothing... your show is a great compensation for monday anguish. also, thank you for the wonderful swag work!
	11:34am βrian: I hope Isasa makes it inland eventually. This is great.
	11:34am ike: Anyway, this Isasa is super darn nice.
	11:35am Joe McG: My pleasure, Andal!
	11:37am Itzall Ablurr: Gorgeous. Sorry to see this end.
	11:39am Andal: JoeMcG thanks, I might be able to see Isasa in Durham! nightlight in chapel hill is a great little venue too.
	11:39am herb.nyc: he's doing a house show? from hardcore to hushy guitar to house music? he is good.
	11:43am steveo: Durham deets for tonight: Isasa / Christian Cail's Cream Pie / Evan Morgan Public · Hosted by Evan Morgan and 3 others Today at 8:30 PM - 12 AM Jul 24 at 8:30 PM to Jul 25 at 12 AM 1206 Clarendon St, Durham, NC 27705-3537, United States ( www.facebook.com... )
	11:44am Joe McG: @Andal: Oh, please go, you'll really love it. Thanks steveo for the details about Durham tonight.
	11:44am ike: OMFG commenters above were NOT making that up about 91.9. Good signal in JC. WTF?!?!?!?!?
	11:45am Andal: Indeed, thanks @steveo!
	11:47am Sem Chumbo: Hiya, Joe. A Defcon 4 deadline came out of nowhere and all about are losing control of major muscle groups. Been listening right along, trying to keep my wits about me. Thanks for the spins. Now to get out of this Hazmat suit and into a cool tumbler of rocket fuel. Later.
	11:47am Wild Neil: Matt Warwick Garbage time? He rocks!
	11:47am Joe McG: @Sem: Thanks for standing firm! See you next time.
	11:47am Joe McG: Hey everybody, be sure to tell Daddy Garbage that I played him today.
	11:48am tuner fish: Where is this Matthew Warwick coming from? Is it an official release or anything? Sounds great!
	👻 11:48am Ken From Hyde Park: Math Rock > Meth Rock
	11:48am Joe McG: @tuner fish: No, he just sent it to me. I like it a lot!
	11:48am northguineahills: Meth Rock > Meh Rock (?)
	👻 11:51am doctorjazz: Walked out of my room, came back, heard one of my guitar heros, RT playing, great!
	👻 11:51am doctorjazz: (his least selling album...)
	👻 11:52am doctorjazz: Missed Matt,though, have to check out the archive.
	11:53am Mick: Great guitarry ending to a great show. Thanks for the Matthew WW surprise!
	11:53am Michael 98145: nice set, thanks
	11:56am judy from croton: Like this but let's rename the band 'ghosts of john and bert'
	11:56am joe mulligan: Great show Joe, and that last set flowed quite well
	👻 11:57am Ken From Hyde Park: Nice work today, Joe. If at all possible, please return the favor to Matt and send him your improvisations for him to play.
	11:58am Joe McG: @Ken: Ha ha! Thanks for listening, everybody! Have a great week and see you next time.

	9:15am Itzall Ablurr: Good morning Joe, hope you are having a fine day.
	9:16am Jeff: Funny thing. Listening to Sophie Tucker's voice, my first impression was that it really sounded like Nathan Lane.

	9:43am davefromtoronto: was she a drag queen? sounds like it.
	9:44am Jeff: Yes, we've definitely found the inspiration for one of Mr. Lane's theatrical declaiming styles. All the rest of y'all probably realized this years ago.
	9:44am JakeGould: Sophie Tucker is a theme.
	9:47am Cheri Pi: sounds perfect @Joe
	9:47am themutante: Thanks for your service, Joe.
	9:47am Whosondephone: You sound like you have a stuffy nose.
	9:47am Jeff: Nope, you're right maybe too close in the room here at home over the speakers.
	9:48am JakeGould: You know how I have said your voice for the past few weeks sounded too dead center in the mix? Now this week. You now sound perfectly in line with your bed music today.
	9:50am Matt Warwick: I LOVE British Joe Mcgasko
	9:50am Jeff: !!
	9:50am Whosondephone: I think Ken was trying to play is IPhone into the mic through his eustachian tube again.
	9:51am Jeff: Joey Meatpies.
	9:53am thedunkel: Uncle Joe's Listening Party (Extravaganza)!
	9:54am BEAVO: Marion Davies was famous for being the MISTRESS OF Hearst she was never his wife,quite a scandal at the time.
	9:54am BnowB: I know your voice. Your very kind on radio. 30 year listener and know most DJ's by their voice. lol Cheers have a great day everybody.
	9:55am BnowB: love this song! :) smiles
	9:55am Greg from ZONE 5: NICELY PLAYED
	9:55am Cheri Pi: !!!
	9:56am The Oscar: Whoa-- heard this song in an art supply store in western Mass on Saturday, and it's been stuck in my head ALL WEEKEND. Freaky!
	9:56am frozen_peas: I get super nostalgic every time I hear this song.
	9:58am Kagi: Me too, frozen_peas. Me, too.
	9:59am Joe McG: This song sounds even better to me now than it did then.
	9:59am JakeGould: Very 80s.
	10:00am Joe McG: @TheOscar: That's crazy! I swear I wasn't in western Mass this weekend.
	10:01am βrian: Oh Laetitia.
	10:02am howard in nyc: I don't feel quite as sad when I hear that first New Order album. Still, a little sad.
	10:03am Itzall Ablurr: I may run out of stars if this continues... Latetia Sadier S.E. helps ease the pain of no more you-know-whoey-o-lab
	10:03am Uncle Michael: "Committed" sure is lovely.
	10:07am Joe McG: @itzall: I can't wait to see her here in August.
	10:07am Jeff: Ooh - and Lætitia Sadier offers an opportunity to bust out the "æ" glyph!
	10:08am JakeGould: I was listening to some Genesis this weekend. They are better than the crappy “Phil Collins is lame” detractors would make one think.
	10:09am The Oscar: (without checking player) "Who is this?" (drum fill) "Ahhhh."
	10:10am Itzall Ablurr: Dear JakeGould, I couldn't agree more. It may be cool (?) to dislike him, but he has given the world a lot of great music, sue-sue-sudio notwithstanding.
	10:10am maestroso: Wow, haven't heard this in years. Reminds me of why I liked it back then.
	10:10am Joe McG: @Jeff: I just have to observe that I'm stunned by your early rising today, Jeff! Hope everything is OK.
	10:12am Jeff: It's a mystery to me as well. Popped awake early and decided to go with it instead of lying there angry that I wasn't sleeping. Don't worry, I'll be miserable later in the day.
	10:12am Wendy del Formaggio: Good morning, Joe! Ooh, I hear the opening strains of Yo La Tengo. Is "strain" the right word? That seems so...negative. As if it's an effort to listen. It's too bad I'm not a writer and could figure this out on my own.
	10:14am Jeff: @Wendy: Too bad you're not, like, a journalist or anything.
	10:14am Summer and Michael: Ah, this Yo La Tengo record brings back some memories. So sweet. Great show, as ever, Joe.
	10:14am Joe McG: @Wendy: Don't worry, Wendy, someday you'll be able to put a few words together. ;)
	10:15am Greg from ZONE 5: I already have my YLT Marathon request in my pocket. Looking to go 3-for-3…
	10:16am Joe McG: @S&M: Isn't that a pretty one? @Greg: I'm dying to know what it is!
	10:18am Wendy del Formaggio: @Jeff and Joe: Yeah, I keep hoping there's hope for me.
	10:19am Wendy del Formaggio: @Greg: Does this mean you won't do your laundry until late-Feb/early-March? I mean, what if the ink runs on the little piece of paper where you've written your request? I suggest a tattoo.
	10:19am Joe McG: @Itzall: This is a little hard to admit, but I kind of like "Sussudio."
	10:22am melinda: Hi folks!
	10:23am Charley C: What was that song about 1 hour and 40 minutes into Glen Jones' 6/25 show. And who did that song? The one about a guy complaining to his woman about her throwing tables in his face.
	10:25am Joe McG: @Charley: Maybe some of the listeners might know?
	10:28am Itzall Ablurr: Seriously, I'll take "Sussudio" over that super annoying, not even fun ironically Felder song in a heartbeat.
	10:28am βrian: Gray skies over Otis' isthmus today.
	10:30am melinda: Darn, missed the Collins.
	10:30am JakeGould: Phil Collins is better than any Millennial Whoop song.
	10:30am MD: Stereolab at the House???
	👻 10:32am tadpoles: "Hold Me" is an old PJ Proby hit. Great stuff!
	10:34am The Oscar: Speaking of Mr. Collins, here's a pretty great patch I stumbled across recently: notbadluck.bigcartel.com...
	10:34am coelacanth∅: 'morning Joe and all
	10:35am pantz: Oh Wow! General Public and New Order in one show. I'm transported to the Orange Julius.
	10:35am Joe McG: Hey Will, if you're listening, there's some oboe on this record!
	10:37am herb.nyc: hi all. i've mentioned this before, but, when first GENERAL PUBIC record came out they were giving it away at the ritz (now webster hall, later to be...). i went in the afternoon and it was kinda sparse.
	10:38am steveo: Hi! Sorry I'm late! Will check archives later for cubist masterpiece!
	10:39am herb.nyc: i'm a semi-collector of music poop, but why don't people bring vinyl to sell, outside this book store tonight, for collectors will be there: www.mcnallyjackson.com...
	10:41am The Oscar: This song is delightful.
	10:41am Wendy del Formaggio: Oh my goodness. "Puppy Dog Song" is my new theme song.
	10:41am Mick: That is a bassett hound of a bass line if I've ever heard one - in the best possible sense.
	10:42am Joe McG: @Mick: Good ears! Chuck Rainey solo project!
	10:42am KH in Bloomington: Just got me a puppy dog and her name is Frankie. Good karma!
	10:43am Joe McG: @KH: Amazing! That segueway was meant to be!
	10:46am Wendy del Formaggio: Are you going to play "Run Joey Run" by David Geddes next?
	10:47am JakeGould: I don’t know about this “poor little white trash” ditty despite the fact it speaks a lot to me. A tad too literal.
	10:47am Listener Alexandra: Good morning, Joe! And I thought maybe I was still half asleep, but you did really find a song called "Poor Little White Trash"....
	10:48am Whosondephone: Transmitter work 91.1?
	10:48am Joe McG: @Wendy: No, but I wish I had Dionne's "Windows of the World" on 45. That little riff at the end of "Poor Little White Trash" is a direct lift of that riff. @Alex: I did, I did!
	10:48am johnk77: broadcast signal at 91.1 is faltering show is great listening in south bronx only static at this moment
	10:48am melinda: @Jake what is a millennial whoop song?
	10:48am Wild Neil: People say "redneck" when they really mean "poor white trash"...and they don't know the difference anyfuxkingway. Ignorant pricks.
	10:49am Brendan: Good morning . Love the duck on the 1 beat of this song
	10:49am Wendy del Formaggio: @Joe: Ooh, I missed that. I'll go back later to the archives. I wish you had Dionne's "Windows" too. What a fabulous song.
	10:49am krissy b: 91.1 ain't workinnnnnn
	10:49am Listener Alexandra: Well done as always, Joe!
	10:50am Joe McG: @johnk77 & krissyb: Oops, bad news! I'm sure Ken and Jeff are on the case as I write this.
	10:52am JakeGould: @melinda: There is no specific song called “Millennial Whoop” but it’s rather a vocal phrasing (?) in more tha a few modern pop songs. Google it. Wah oh wah oh!
	10:53am Stay Frosty: I need my morning fix of Joe McG!!! Break the silence!!!
	10:54am -Ken: @krissy @stayforsty - thanks! Working on it now
	10:54am Agent Peter: #fakewfmu
	10:55am Stay Frosty: You're the man, Ken. You're the man.
	10:57am Jeremy: Strangely, the signal seems to have moved from 91.1 to 91.9 in Manhattan.
	10:57am themutante: listen to that cheese
	10:57am herb.nyc: wfmu fm not working? the stereo is on at home, for my cat. she's probably tearing up the place. tho she likes andy breckman, so maybe she's saying "oh good".
	10:58am -Ken: No power at the transmitter site, so 91.1 fm could be down for anywhere from 5 minutes to 5 hours.
	10:58am Kurt Gottschalk: you totally had time for another single, dammit.
	👻 10:58am Ken From Hyde Park: Hamsters, activate!
	👻 10:59am doctorjazz: OOO, sad,, sounding fine through the Pop-up.
	11:00am Jeremy: Weird! If the power is down, how am I able to listen on 91.9??
	11:00am βrian: "Que sera sera," says Doris
	11:02am Stay Frosty: This is karmic payback for Joe only playing Yes once every ten years. I think that Comet Kahoutek will be swinging by around the same time.
	11:02am herb.nyc: @Jeremy - if you can hear wfmu on fm, then play extra loud and open yr windows.
	11:04am Agent Peter: Yeah, 91.9 fine in Manhattan..
	11:04am Caroline: Phil Collins/ Yes= slippery slope my friend. Easy does it.
	11:06am βrian: Uncle Michael has played Kansas, but maybe the stream is a bit more resilient.
	11:07am Jeremy: @Herb: I would, but I boarded up all my windows after Drumpf got elected.
	11:08am The Oscar: I get unreasonably excited whenever lost silent movies are uncovered and shown. Still holding out hope for London After Midnight.
	👻 11:09am Webhamster Henry: You can read a little more about Marion Davies in the excellent if possibly fictitious in places memoir "BRING ON THE GIRLS!" by P.G. Wodehouse on his theatrical life with partner Guy Bolton.
	11:11am Wild Neil: I LOVE me some STYX. They really rock. Un-ironically. Also the Knack. And The Cars Candy-O. Its like the stuff that Clay plays which is awesome power pop. I also like 75 dollar bill, Horse Lords and Dirty Beaches. And Merl Haggard. Its the Redneck in me I'm sure.
	11:11am Carmichael: Heya Joe and Monday people. Lots of Ms. Sadier and Tremeloes this past weekend.
	11:11am herb.nyc: @Jeremy - Drumpf entering thru our windows, like zombies impolitely do. and George Romero died, and Film Forum is showing his "night of the living dead" in oct (i think). it's all connected.
	11:11am knowitall@aol.com: The Marion Davies reputation comes mainly from Citizen Kane. Welles himself says he went too far in his portrayal of her.
	11:14am Brendan: Sweet jam
	11:21am Joe McG: Some helpful notes for you about the songs: "Luces blancas" is about when cars pass each other and there are headlights and also traffic lights reflecting on each other; "El Mar" is about the sea; "Tricotosa" is a type of toy sewing machine popular with a generation of kids in Spain.
	11:22am Joe McG: Here is a link to Isasa's bandcamp page: isasa.bandcamp.com... I'll announce some upcoming tour dates shortly.
	11:24am wendyfaye: Saw him Saturday at a tiny show in Philly. Was feeling sad and it cheered me up immensely. Was suprised to hear it again this morning, a very pleasant suprise and nice reminder to stay in a good place. Thank-you!
	11:26am Joe McG: @wendyfaye: So glad you caught him! For local folks, he'll be back in the area this coming Saturday playing Troost in Brooklyn.
	11:27am Own CrabappleSatellite Johnzon: Good morning! Good job! You are a true Armenian hero WFMU DJ! I have a request... play some Univore! Or just... check out Univore at your leisure! Really just trying to spread awareness of my pals Univore!.... ... .... Univore! www.youtube.com... if you're not familiar, their most popular video is "champagne taste" but there are a bunch of other good ones... basically everything they do is good but I particularly like Angela, Scorpions & Brazil, Ghost of Me, Vendetta, I've been trying to run into you, and Indulgences.
	👻 11:27am doctorjazz: This is LOVELY! I'd go se him it he's around the NY/NJ area. Brooklyn, huh?
	11:27am steveo: Joe: cool! tri·cot ˈtrēkō/ noun a fine knitted fabric made of a natural or man-made fiber.
	11:27am steveo: also, Tricot is a math rock band from Kyoto, Japan. Known for their intricate rhythms and visual identity, they have released four EPs and three full-length albums.
	11:29am Greg from ZONE 5: Soothing sounds
	11:29am Joe McG: More notes: "Aina" is apparently referencing a Spanish hardcore band of the '90s! Apparently Isasa used to be in the hardcore scene back then. @OwnCrab: Will check them out, thanks! @drjazz: Yes, a very nice intimate spot in Brooklyn next Saturday. I'll announce the other dates, too, in case some of you are listening in North Carolina or Maryland. He's in Durham tonight, Asheville on Tuesday, Chapel Hill on Thursday, Baltimore on Friday, and Brooklyn is the tour end on Saturday.
	11:30am Joe McG: @steveo: Never heard of tricot, but that makes perfect sense, thks!
	11:32am βrian: Math rock? That's Sesame Street, right?
	11:33am Carmichael: I though math rock was an after school special.
	11:33am ike: @Itzall@10:28, agreed! But then I'd also take being vomited on by a rhino over Don Felder. (But preferably, a rhino vomiting on Don Felder. While eagles peck him for slandering their good bird name.)
	11:34am Andal: very soothing... your show is a great compensation for monday anguish. also, thank you for the wonderful swag work!
	11:34am βrian: I hope Isasa makes it inland eventually. This is great.
	11:34am ike: Anyway, this Isasa is super darn nice.
	11:35am Joe McG: My pleasure, Andal!
	11:37am Itzall Ablurr: Gorgeous. Sorry to see this end.
	11:39am Andal: JoeMcG thanks, I might be able to see Isasa in Durham! nightlight in chapel hill is a great little venue too.
	11:39am herb.nyc: he's doing a house show? from hardcore to hushy guitar to house music? he is good.
	11:43am steveo: Durham deets for tonight: Isasa / Christian Cail's Cream Pie / Evan Morgan Public · Hosted by Evan Morgan and 3 others Today at 8:30 PM - 12 AM Jul 24 at 8:30 PM to Jul 25 at 12 AM 1206 Clarendon St, Durham, NC 27705-3537, United States ( www.facebook.com... )
	11:44am Joe McG: @Andal: Oh, please go, you'll really love it. Thanks steveo for the details about Durham tonight.
	11:44am ike: OMFG commenters above were NOT making that up about 91.9. Good signal in JC. WTF?!?!?!?!?
	11:45am Andal: Indeed, thanks @steveo!
	11:47am Sem Chumbo: Hiya, Joe. A Defcon 4 deadline came out of nowhere and all about are losing control of major muscle groups. Been listening right along, trying to keep my wits about me. Thanks for the spins. Now to get out of this Hazmat suit and into a cool tumbler of rocket fuel. Later.
	11:47am Wild Neil: Matt Warwick Garbage time? He rocks!
	11:47am Joe McG: @Sem: Thanks for standing firm! See you next time.
	11:47am Joe McG: Hey everybody, be sure to tell Daddy Garbage that I played him today.
	11:48am tuner fish: Where is this Matthew Warwick coming from? Is it an official release or anything? Sounds great!
	👻 11:48am Ken From Hyde Park: Math Rock > Meth Rock
	11:48am Joe McG: @tuner fish: No, he just sent it to me. I like it a lot!
	11:48am northguineahills: Meth Rock > Meh Rock (?)
	👻 11:51am doctorjazz: Walked out of my room, came back, heard one of my guitar heros, RT playing, great!
