	9:26am Barbikat: I thought Carlo was hot! This is another level of sexiness!
	9:26am glenn: is joe still hung over from the super bowl?
	9:26am TheLoneliestMonk: @JM you're a little early with this one, joe. this shoulda been your valentine's show...for lovers only!
	9:26am Linda Lee: Barbikat's had quite a morning
	9:26am annie: this show is too "mellow" for me to listen the way i'd like... archives later. headphones mandatory.

	9:28am braveness23: and... I'm spent!
	9:29am Barbikat: Vincent, nooo! My hitachi would break!
	9:29am glenn: it's like the aural version of the magic wand.
	9:29am sydnius: Maybe Joe's reacting to Crashing, which has been great, I'm so happy for Pete.

	9:42am Diezel Tea: Hey folks. Finally got my computer set up at my office. Look forward to participating on the regular once again)) Love from Yerevan.
	9:43am The Oscar: One of the nice things about listening to WFMU is that it allows me to keep up with new GBV without buying every album. A guy can go broke that way fast!
	9:44am Linda Lee: i do love Me & the Bees! adorable.
	9:45am Linda Lee: you know how it is, dave. off-key singing always signals authentic feeling.

	9:50am Summer and Michael and Sylvia: Morning, Joe! Sounding great!
	9:50am spamoni: Good morning Joe and all ! I see a lot of my fellow Saturday morning crew here ,hi all.
	9:51am Sem: Greets, spamoni!
	👻 9:52am NotARealDoctor: Joe McG has single handedly created an Anthony Newley market bubble this morning. I have already purchased a sealed copy of the album from eBay for a whopping 500% markup over Joe's purchase price.
	9:52am Joe McG: Hey, everybody, thanks for stopping by and saying hello. @NotaRealDoctor: My work here is done!
	👻 9:52am Brian in UK: Hey Joe Wub a dub a dub dub a dub a dub. Anthony Newley did a 'jazz' version of Pop Goes the Weasel.
	9:52am JP from KC: I''ve got to say, Joe- I don't think there's ever been a time I tuned into your show and didn't immediately love what I was hearing. This is fantastic.
	9:52am Brendan: Sex sells!
	9:53am annie: hey spamoni, good to see you! i'm just leaving...thanks, joe, hitting up the archive later!
	9:53am davefromtoronto: lucky for that guy, @linda lee...
	9:53am spamoni: By annie have a great day !
	9:54am spamoni: Bye
	9:54am Linda Lee: wow that price is really engorged!
	9:54am Doobois: You’re killing me, man. What a set.
	9:54am Joe McG: Many thanks, JP!
	9:56am Linda Lee: @davefromtoronto ~ people love it. they'll even sit still for Marianne Faithfull.
	9:56am Linda Lee: what a pretty set, Joe! perfect for a cold shower.
	👻 9:57am NotARealDoctor: I can't wait for the album to arrive. I can imagine it now, cellophane glistening like wet dew on the cover of sleeve. The anticipation fills me like the ocean waves filling in our beautiful bonfire.
	9:57am davefromtoronto: well i can't deny i love lou reed...
	9:59am Linda Lee: at last lou was always in tune!
	👻 10:00am NotARealDoctor: Found an auction for 2000lbs of used records (not counted weighed), buy it now price was just $100. The only problem is I'd have to rent a U-Haul and drive 5 hours to collect it and then I'd have to figure out where to store it while I sorted through a literal ton of records.
	👻 10:01am NotARealDoctor: Looking through online auctions can be a dangerous endeavor.
	10:02am Linda Lee: NARD, that sounds like a long term van rental. wouldn't buy anything i can't have a peek at. it might be 3 recordings!
	10:04am Pete: Hey Joe! Where ya goin' with that Sundays record in your hand? Show's sounding great!
	👻 10:04am NotARealDoctor: They had photos of the unsorted rubbermaid totes (not included in purchase) and it was definitely a mixture of all sorts of records from pop to punk to soul to rap to gospel.
	10:05am Joe McG: @Pete: I know! I forgot it was Monday!
	10:07am Linda Lee: what happened? record store go under? you'd definitely have multiples there. same with a distributor. a radio station would be better.
	10:08am Pete: @Joe: Haha!
	10:08am Cheri Pi: Nice one, Hello Joe
	10:10am Linda Lee: i'd still have a look before i shelled out. the storage issues alone! you'd best really want what you're buying.
	👻 10:11am NotARealDoctor: Indeed, Linda Lee, not quite sure it was being sold by a thrift store, so I think it must be something like that. I'd never really be able to deal with it. But I must admit it's tempting just for the sheer joy of discovery.
	10:12am Linda Lee: oh i know. trust me i know. :-D
	10:13am Linda Lee: this is why God made retail.
	10:16am steveo: I was in SE Pennsylvania yesterday and I heard Heron Oblivion on WXPN and I was like, woah, how did those folks find out about this?!
	10:17am John in Bklyn: The Smarmfest was funny, but this set is great!!
	10:18am otto: wow! never been here monday mornings... LOVING the show! Thanks Joe!
	10:18am passiflora: good morning music
	10:19am Joe McG: Thanks for dropping in, otto!
	10:19am pantz: Keep coming back @otto. One of the best ways to start the week is with Surface Noise.
	10:20am listener monica: this is lovely, joe.
	10:20am Marc Francis: Damn. This song is gorgeous.
	10:23am prudy: really enjoying these gi-tars!
	10:26am βrian: Guítar goodness.
	10:27am Davee: It's SINGLE time!!!
	10:33am KP in DC: I am a lert.
	10:34am Brendan: It’s not as seductive as Tony Newley’s EAS , but functional.
	10:34am Boomer: Brah
	10:35am lukavino: Joe, when you said Alice cover i knew it was going to be off Special Forces.
	10:35am Joe McG: @Brendan: Ha ha ha
	10:35am lukavino: what a record.
	10:35am The Oscar: I knew it was going to be "7 and 7 Is," but I was really hoping it would be "The Red Telephone." I think Alice could actually pull that off pretty well.
	10:35am Rich in Washington: Even though I loathed them when they came out, I've sort of warmed to Alice's Alice goes New Wave records now.
	10:36am KP in DC: Love it
	10:36am Rich in Washington: I have really become fond of his Clones (We're All). Someone really should cover it.
	10:36am listener monica: big fan of alice over here.
	10:37am The Oscar: +10 points for the ending!
	10:38am MplsCoco: These are amazing!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Hi Joe!
	10:38am Pete: Alice didn't the coda? That's the best part! Ah well, it's his birthday, so he can do whatever he wants.
	10:38am Rich in Washington: Oh. I'm thinking of his album Flush the Fashion, which came out a year earlier. Another of his New Wave-ish albums...
	10:38am Agent Peter: best cover ever
	10:38am duke: The Mag Men. I used to see them in York PA.
	10:40am Listener Alexandra: Good morning, Joe--greetings from soggy SoCal!
	10:41am joe: Now play Dave the Spazz's cover of Smash the Mirror :p
	10:41am Joe McG: @Pete: He liked those bip-bops too much. @duke: How were they live? I read that James Brown liked them so much he hopped on stage at the Apollo to join them for 45 minutes!
	10:42am Mike Sin: The whole Assembled Multitude LP is actually very interesting. I think this track was a top #10 single!
	10:45am Joe McG: @Mike: I know, it was a bigger hit than the original! @joe: Great idea!
	10:45am duke: @Joe. They put on a great live show. At the time the York/Harrisburg PA area was filled with soul bands. The Mag Men were the only ones who made it semi-big.
	10:45am Krys O.: I adore this Lords of the New Church song 4 ever!
	10:48am Joe McG: @Krys: Those lyrics are very special! :)
	👻 10:48am Hughie Considine: How I wondered what Doctor Good was!
	10:49am Joe McG: Hey, Alex! Sorry it's so soggy out there!
	10:49am Agent Peter: a song that always brings a tear to the eye :-)
	10:49am melinda: Cher!
	10:49am lukavino: the girls who worked at the local steakhouse used to play this Cher song at my college local every night after their shift.
	10:49am prudy: check out the Scud Mountain Boys cover of this song.
	10:49am Booz: Today's show hits four or five different kinds of sweet spots, then starts the series over again. Spit-take (Newley, Alice Cooper), best-songs-ever (Sundays, Lords of the New Church), fresh-baked (Gunn, Tyler, Kero Kero), and AAAHHH (Lai, Cher).
	10:50am John in Bklyn: If it was now, Cher could have mobilized an army on social media to call out the racists and bigots!!
	10:50am davefromtoronto: tramp is right...
	10:50am Krys O.: Stiv was a cutie pie!
	10:50am Booz: Joe, you play us like a cat piano.
	10:50am βrian: Ah, the classic fade-out!
	👻 10:51am Hughie Considine: That's pretty harsh, @Dave. Seriously?
	10:51am Marc Francis: Easy there Dave from Toronto.
	10:51am Booz: Krys, agreed about Handsome Stiv
	10:52am joe: Jesus how powerful Dolly's voice was even then at such a young age.
	10:52am Joe McG: @Booz: Ha ha ha! Meow!
	👻 10:54am Hughie Considine: Stiv gave a beautiful performance as Bobo in John Waters's "Polyester"
	10:54am Bill W: FUN FACT: In the '70s, my grandma pronounced Cher's name as "churr."
	10:55am melinda: @John haha
	👻 10:55am Hughie Considine: @Bill W, I bet she had a nice way of saying Sade.
	👻 10:57am karlward: Pumping?
	10:57am davefromtoronto: yes i am seriously referring to a character in a fictional song as a tramp... keep your pants on! both of you!
	10:57am Joe McG: @karl: At least they didn't say his erect piano.
	11:03am joe: Wow I think Alice Cooper just got 20 years older since your last break :)
	11:07am Joe McG: Graham's bandcamp: grahambrice.bandcamp.com
	11:23am paul b: Graham's vocals remind me a bit of Nick Saloman at times -- which is a complement because I like the Bevis Frond.
	11:25am Joe McG: I hear that, paul! I hear some Costello in there, too, I think. Maybe even a little Kevin Ayers, if he were an indie rocker!
	11:26am maestroso: I hear a little bit of Richard Thompson too.
	11:27am ChrisB.: I'm hearing Wesley Stace in the solo stuff. Nice.
	👻 11:29am Brian in UK: I'm hearing Graham Brice.
	11:29am Joe McG: Very nicely put, Brian. :)
	11:30am James Douglas: Reminds me of Pete Townshend! (Compliment)
	11:31am Hoboken Jack: @chrisb was also going to mention John Wesley Harding!
	11:32am Brendan: I know a guy who knows a guy who can do that identity thing . For a price.
	11:32am Hoboken Jack: And if course Stace was compared to Costello early on, and the world keeps spinning....
	11:33am Joe McG: John Wesley Harding also had that rich voice!
	👻 11:38am Brian in UK: John Peel sessons remembered. Miss him still.
	11:39am Joe McG: Wow, Brian, what a very nice compliment! Thank you.
	11:39am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @steveo-one of the kids in The Wire (McNulty's kids) was listeing to something really heavy. McNulty walks in (he's got them for visitation that weekend) and he says"What's that?" and they go "Dead Meadow". I was kinda impressed. That was as good a TV moment as The Dickies on CPO Sharkey back in the 70's.
	11:40am Brendan: Hearing some Joe Jackson chord changes in the mix too
	11:41am Joe McG: @Brendan: Graham has a very nice mix of influences that he's assimilated so beautifully.
	11:41am Marshall Stacks: Wow, I'm really enjoying Graham Brice's music, singing and songwriting both.
	11:42am Mike Sin: @Brendan -- I was about to say the same thing! That singing along with the descending changes reminded of that '80-era Joe Jackson. @Joe McG -- Man, this "Ask Me To" is a helleuva track to be recorded for your show! It's fabulous!
	11:46am davefromtoronto: great stuff! love the lyrics.
	11:46am Mike tp: driving about Bergen county NJ heard wooden hills snow day..song really popped.thanks to all who makes this joy possible..!!!
	11:50am ?: great live show! wonderful bday playlist...thank you! Wait I share a bday with AC?
	11:51am annie: imade it back for the last ten minutes!!
	11:51am Carmichael: Just saw Richard Thompson Saturday night, so his music is still fresh in my yoooge cranium. I hear a lot of him in Brice.
	👻 11:51am 12539: Thanks Graham! Thanks Joe!
	11:52am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: It snowed so hard a couple weeks ago they closed the ski resort near me a couple of Thursdays ago.
	11:54am Dr Poop: I had a dream last night that i pooped my pants; then I woke up and realized it wasnt just a dream.
	11:54am steveo: Thanks Joe & Graham -- great show!
	11:55am Joe McG: Thanks a lot for listening and commenting, everybody! Have a great week and I'll see you next time.
	11:55am annie: love this incident: a neighbour in this building was telling me she is on the lookout for a new tape player... outside the trash-drop door last night was a SONY cd/tape/radio player... i think thisis what i'm good for...
	11:55am blee: I hear your mom calling, Dr.
	11:56am Brendan: Thanks to you Graham, Joe , your engineer, fellow listeners and, last but not least, the goat alarm for not going off in that first set.
	11:56am Dr Poop: My mother died a while back
	11:56am steveo: @neil I don't know dead meadow :)
	11:56am blee: Great show Joe and Graham. Sounded really warm.
	1:33pm Graham Brice: Thank you for having me Joe and Mario! And thank you to everyone for the kind words!

	9:26am Barbikat: I thought Carlo was hot! This is another level of sexiness!
	9:26am glenn: is joe still hung over from the super bowl?
	9:26am TheLoneliestMonk: @JM you're a little early with this one, joe. this shoulda been your valentine's show...for lovers only!
	9:26am Linda Lee: Barbikat's had quite a morning

	9:42am Diezel Tea: Hey folks. Finally got my computer set up at my office. Look forward to participating on the regular once again)) Love from Yerevan.

	9:44am Linda Lee: i do love Me & the Bees! adorable.

	👻 9:52am NotARealDoctor: Joe McG has single handedly created an Anthony Newley market bubble this morning. I have already purchased a sealed copy of the album from eBay for a whopping 500% markup over Joe's purchase price.
	9:52am Joe McG: Hey, everybody, thanks for stopping by and saying hello. @NotaRealDoctor: My work here is done!
	👻 9:52am Brian in UK: Hey Joe Wub a dub a dub dub a dub a dub. Anthony Newley did a 'jazz' version of Pop Goes the Weasel.
	9:52am JP from KC: I''ve got to say, Joe- I don't think there's ever been a time I tuned into your show and didn't immediately love what I was hearing. This is fantastic.
	9:52am Brendan: Sex sells!
	9:53am annie: hey spamoni, good to see you! i'm just leaving...thanks, joe, hitting up the archive later!
	9:53am davefromtoronto: lucky for that guy, @linda lee...

	9:54am Linda Lee: wow that price is really engorged!
	9:54am Doobois: You’re killing me, man. What a set.
	9:54am Joe McG: Many thanks, JP!
	9:56am Linda Lee: @davefromtoronto ~ people love it. they'll even sit still for Marianne Faithfull.
	9:56am Linda Lee: what a pretty set, Joe! perfect for a cold shower.
	👻 9:57am NotARealDoctor: I can't wait for the album to arrive. I can imagine it now, cellophane glistening like wet dew on the cover of sleeve. The anticipation fills me like the ocean waves filling in our beautiful bonfire.
	9:57am davefromtoronto: well i can't deny i love lou reed...
	9:59am Linda Lee: at last lou was always in tune!
	👻 10:00am NotARealDoctor: Found an auction for 2000lbs of used records (not counted weighed), buy it now price was just $100. The only problem is I'd have to rent a U-Haul and drive 5 hours to collect it and then I'd have to figure out where to store it while I sorted through a literal ton of records.
	👻 10:01am NotARealDoctor: Looking through online auctions can be a dangerous endeavor.
	10:02am Linda Lee: NARD, that sounds like a long term van rental. wouldn't buy anything i can't have a peek at. it might be 3 recordings!
	10:04am Pete: Hey Joe! Where ya goin' with that Sundays record in your hand? Show's sounding great!
	👻 10:04am NotARealDoctor: They had photos of the unsorted rubbermaid totes (not included in purchase) and it was definitely a mixture of all sorts of records from pop to punk to soul to rap to gospel.
	10:05am Joe McG: @Pete: I know! I forgot it was Monday!
	10:07am Linda Lee: what happened? record store go under? you'd definitely have multiples there. same with a distributor. a radio station would be better.
	10:08am Pete: @Joe: Haha!
	10:08am Cheri Pi: Nice one, Hello Joe
	10:10am Linda Lee: i'd still have a look before i shelled out. the storage issues alone! you'd best really want what you're buying.
	👻 10:11am NotARealDoctor: Indeed, Linda Lee, not quite sure it was being sold by a thrift store, so I think it must be something like that. I'd never really be able to deal with it. But I must admit it's tempting just for the sheer joy of discovery.
	10:12am Linda Lee: oh i know. trust me i know. :-D
	10:13am Linda Lee: this is why God made retail.
	10:16am steveo: I was in SE Pennsylvania yesterday and I heard Heron Oblivion on WXPN and I was like, woah, how did those folks find out about this?!
	10:17am John in Bklyn: The Smarmfest was funny, but this set is great!!

	10:18am passiflora: good morning music

	10:20am listener monica: this is lovely, joe.
	10:20am Marc Francis: Damn. This song is gorgeous.
	10:23am prudy: really enjoying these gi-tars!
	10:26am βrian: Guítar goodness.
	10:27am Davee: It's SINGLE time!!!
	10:33am KP in DC: I am a lert.
	10:34am Brendan: It’s not as seductive as Tony Newley’s EAS , but functional.
	10:34am Boomer: Brah
	10:35am lukavino: Joe, when you said Alice cover i knew it was going to be off Special Forces.
	10:35am Joe McG: @Brendan: Ha ha ha
	10:35am lukavino: what a record.
	10:35am The Oscar: I knew it was going to be "7 and 7 Is," but I was really hoping it would be "The Red Telephone." I think Alice could actually pull that off pretty well.
	10:35am Rich in Washington: Even though I loathed them when they came out, I've sort of warmed to Alice's Alice goes New Wave records now.
	10:36am KP in DC: Love it
	10:36am Rich in Washington: I have really become fond of his Clones (We're All). Someone really should cover it.
	10:36am listener monica: big fan of alice over here.
	10:37am The Oscar: +10 points for the ending!
	10:38am MplsCoco: These are amazing!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Hi Joe!
	10:38am Pete: Alice didn't the coda? That's the best part! Ah well, it's his birthday, so he can do whatever he wants.
	10:38am Rich in Washington: Oh. I'm thinking of his album Flush the Fashion, which came out a year earlier. Another of his New Wave-ish albums...
	10:38am Agent Peter: best cover ever
	10:38am duke: The Mag Men. I used to see them in York PA.
	10:40am Listener Alexandra: Good morning, Joe--greetings from soggy SoCal!
	10:41am joe: Now play Dave the Spazz's cover of Smash the Mirror :p
	10:41am Joe McG: @Pete: He liked those bip-bops too much. @duke: How were they live? I read that James Brown liked them so much he hopped on stage at the Apollo to join them for 45 minutes!
	10:42am Mike Sin: The whole Assembled Multitude LP is actually very interesting. I think this track was a top #10 single!
	10:45am Joe McG: @Mike: I know, it was a bigger hit than the original! @joe: Great idea!
	10:45am duke: @Joe. They put on a great live show. At the time the York/Harrisburg PA area was filled with soul bands. The Mag Men were the only ones who made it semi-big.
	10:45am Krys O.: I adore this Lords of the New Church song 4 ever!
	10:48am Joe McG: @Krys: Those lyrics are very special! :)
	👻 10:48am Hughie Considine: How I wondered what Doctor Good was!
	10:49am Joe McG: Hey, Alex! Sorry it's so soggy out there!
	10:49am Agent Peter: a song that always brings a tear to the eye :-)
	10:49am melinda: Cher!
	10:49am lukavino: the girls who worked at the local steakhouse used to play this Cher song at my college local every night after their shift.
	10:49am prudy: check out the Scud Mountain Boys cover of this song.
	10:49am Booz: Today's show hits four or five different kinds of sweet spots, then starts the series over again. Spit-take (Newley, Alice Cooper), best-songs-ever (Sundays, Lords of the New Church), fresh-baked (Gunn, Tyler, Kero Kero), and AAAHHH (Lai, Cher).
	10:50am John in Bklyn: If it was now, Cher could have mobilized an army on social media to call out the racists and bigots!!
	10:50am davefromtoronto: tramp is right...
	10:50am Krys O.: Stiv was a cutie pie!
	10:50am Booz: Joe, you play us like a cat piano.
	10:50am βrian: Ah, the classic fade-out!
	👻 10:51am Hughie Considine: That's pretty harsh, @Dave. Seriously?
	10:51am Marc Francis: Easy there Dave from Toronto.
	10:51am Booz: Krys, agreed about Handsome Stiv
	10:52am joe: Jesus how powerful Dolly's voice was even then at such a young age.
	10:52am Joe McG: @Booz: Ha ha ha! Meow!
	👻 10:54am Hughie Considine: Stiv gave a beautiful performance as Bobo in John Waters's "Polyester"
	10:54am Bill W: FUN FACT: In the '70s, my grandma pronounced Cher's name as "churr."
	10:55am melinda: @John haha
	👻 10:55am Hughie Considine: @Bill W, I bet she had a nice way of saying Sade.
	👻 10:57am karlward: Pumping?
	10:57am davefromtoronto: yes i am seriously referring to a character in a fictional song as a tramp... keep your pants on! both of you!
	10:57am Joe McG: @karl: At least they didn't say his erect piano.
	11:03am joe: Wow I think Alice Cooper just got 20 years older since your last break :)
	11:07am Joe McG: Graham's bandcamp: grahambrice.bandcamp.com
	11:23am paul b: Graham's vocals remind me a bit of Nick Saloman at times -- which is a complement because I like the Bevis Frond.
	11:25am Joe McG: I hear that, paul! I hear some Costello in there, too, I think. Maybe even a little Kevin Ayers, if he were an indie rocker!
	11:26am maestroso: I hear a little bit of Richard Thompson too.
	11:27am ChrisB.: I'm hearing Wesley Stace in the solo stuff. Nice.
	👻 11:29am Brian in UK: I'm hearing Graham Brice.
	11:29am Joe McG: Very nicely put, Brian. :)
	11:30am James Douglas: Reminds me of Pete Townshend! (Compliment)
	11:31am Hoboken Jack: @chrisb was also going to mention John Wesley Harding!
	11:32am Brendan: I know a guy who knows a guy who can do that identity thing . For a price.
	11:32am Hoboken Jack: And if course Stace was compared to Costello early on, and the world keeps spinning....
	11:33am Joe McG: John Wesley Harding also had that rich voice!
	👻 11:38am Brian in UK: John Peel sessons remembered. Miss him still.
	11:39am Joe McG: Wow, Brian, what a very nice compliment! Thank you.
	11:39am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @steveo-one of the kids in The Wire (McNulty's kids) was listeing to something really heavy. McNulty walks in (he's got them for visitation that weekend) and he says"What's that?" and they go "Dead Meadow". I was kinda impressed. That was as good a TV moment as The Dickies on CPO Sharkey back in the 70's.
	11:40am Brendan: Hearing some Joe Jackson chord changes in the mix too
	11:41am Joe McG: @Brendan: Graham has a very nice mix of influences that he's assimilated so beautifully.
	11:41am Marshall Stacks: Wow, I'm really enjoying Graham Brice's music, singing and songwriting both.
	11:42am Mike Sin: @Brendan -- I was about to say the same thing! That singing along with the descending changes reminded of that '80-era Joe Jackson. @Joe McG -- Man, this "Ask Me To" is a helleuva track to be recorded for your show! It's fabulous!
	11:46am davefromtoronto: great stuff! love the lyrics.
	11:46am Mike tp: driving about Bergen county NJ heard wooden hills snow day..song really popped.thanks to all who makes this joy possible..!!!
	11:50am ?: great live show! wonderful bday playlist...thank you! Wait I share a bday with AC?
	11:51am annie: imade it back for the last ten minutes!!
	11:51am Carmichael: Just saw Richard Thompson Saturday night, so his music is still fresh in my yoooge cranium. I hear a lot of him in Brice.
	👻 11:51am 12539: Thanks Graham! Thanks Joe!
	11:52am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: It snowed so hard a couple weeks ago they closed the ski resort near me a couple of Thursdays ago.
	11:54am Dr Poop: I had a dream last night that i pooped my pants; then I woke up and realized it wasnt just a dream.
	11:54am steveo: Thanks Joe & Graham -- great show!
	11:55am Joe McG: Thanks a lot for listening and commenting, everybody! Have a great week and I'll see you next time.
	11:55am annie: love this incident: a neighbour in this building was telling me she is on the lookout for a new tape player... outside the trash-drop door last night was a SONY cd/tape/radio player... i think thisis what i'm good for...
	11:55am blee: I hear your mom calling, Dr.
	11:56am Brendan: Thanks to you Graham, Joe , your engineer, fellow listeners and, last but not least, the goat alarm for not going off in that first set.
	11:56am Dr Poop: My mother died a while back
	11:56am steveo: @neil I don't know dead meadow :)
	11:56am blee: Great show Joe and Graham. Sounded really warm.
	1:33pm Graham Brice: Thank you for having me Joe and Mario! And thank you to everyone for the kind words!
