	♥ 6:29am HyperDose: Got White Castle in the freezer. I think Jim is trying to tell me something.
	6:29am Loris Karloff: Hi Will the Sound Guy, Amanda & Jim, fellow playlisters, and all animals of all level and manner of baditude
	♥ 6:30am dale: morning. sure wish i could hear purring in the morning instead of MEOW (tap). MEOW (tap tap).
	♥ 6:30am Amanda: Turkeys are absolutely brazen and unhinged
	♥ 6:31am Amanda: Lol I wish my cat would meow to wake me in the morning, instead he just bites my skin.
	6:32am P-90: Maybe he’s part turkey
	😼 ♥ 6:34am Will the Sound Guy: I'll try to get a picture next time, they wander over a bit.
	♥ 6:36am dale: i used to get a lot of turkeys. i think the winter with less snow cover might have thinned them out.
	😼 ♥ 6:36am Will the Sound Guy: I'd rather have the turkeys visit 🦃 than the deer 🦌... it's much safer on our plants, less ticks too.
	😼 ♥ 6:37am Will the Sound Guy: Hi Rob and dale!
	♥ 6:37am HyperDose: Aren't chickens worse though because they murder EVERYTHING lol
	♥ 6:40am Bobby: I was not ready for the bell. I froze and started looking for the source

	♥ 6:49am Amanda: THIS GUY GETS IT!
	😼 ♥ 6:50am Will the Sound Guy: it's buzzing, I'm working a show Sunday, and the Friday coming up ... summer is getting pretty booked up.
	6:54am Toothgrinder Tom: Every morning should begin with this cuckoo song.
	6:56am Rob from Maryland: Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird, she hollers when she flies (I think I got the words right) is from a song that Kristin Hersh recorded in the 90s
	6:56am Cooh John: Sounds good, Will. I usually thank the sound guys when I go to shows.🎶👍
	♥ 6:56am Dave the Spazz: And now my favorite Beach Men song! I'm sticking near the radio today...
	♥ 6:57am Jim the Poet: Keep it locked to the fun 91!
	6:58am Cooh John: Spazz alert!
	6:59am P-90: Jim sounds like (legendary actor) Lee J.Cobb
	7:04am Toothgrinder Tom: @Rob I’ve heard that song covered by many artists, I think it’s traditional.
	7:07am Rob from Maryland: @Toothgrinder, I guess I only know her version. It's definitely traditional.
	7:08am Rob from Maryland: @Amanda & Jim, thanks for playing the Rachel Sweet song. It's been sooo long since I've listened to that album.
	♥ 7:09am dale: the cuckoo goes waaaay back. en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 7:10am Dave the Spazz: Now I can start my day!
	♥ 7:11am john_zilla: wow cardigans
	7:12am Toothgrinder Tom: In fact it’s one of the first folk songs I remember hearing, when I was a child, on WETA’s folk program which my parents listened to faithfully.
	♥ 7:12am dale: were they really the first band on the moon? or was it faked on a soundstage?
	♥ 7:13am HyperDose: Me gusta!
	♥ 7:15am dday: Nina Persson..mmmmm
	♥ 7:15am dale: murphey's used to sell parakeets. i had a pair. an open window at night will kill them. ask how i know.
	♥ 7:17am dday: Murderous Chickens..good band name..but in other chicken news: relevantmagazine.com...
	♥ 7:17am HyperDose: Rocky and Bullwinkle <3
	7:19am Menlo Park: monk parrots or Quaker parrots are attracted to the heat given off by the transformers and other equipment high up on the utility poles.
	♥ 7:19am dale: didn't they pick their name by throwing a dart at a map of the u.s.? i know they wanted to sound more american so they wanted a city in their name.
	♥ 7:20am dday: And now Tick Talk . Opossums eat ticks & are harmless marsupials. Don't harm them. They eat ticks. How many ? Who knows for sure but even one less tick is good :) Opossums are also notable for their ability to clean themselves of ticks, which they then eat. Some estimates suggest they can eliminate up to 5,000 ticks in a season. More recent research indicates the large consumption of ticks may not be true.
	😼 ♥ 7:21am Will the Sound Guy: I support the opossum! 👍🏻
	7:24am P-90: Bad Boy Jim got dismissed from the Boy’s and Girl’s Choir?
	♥ 7:24am dday: Good Morning Amanda. Digitize your LP's. Preserves the audio which defrades just from being in storage. USB turntable & Audacity makes it easy. I did over 1000's LP's . Fit 2 versions of each LP on an external 5TB Seagate Slim Drive. Made the decision to sell my LP's after a heart attack in 2017. LP's are HEAVY. :)
	♥ 7:24am john_zilla: cool possum book just came out : www.quirkbooks.com...
	♥ 7:25am dday: Good Morning Will. Was thinking of you at Bob Mould last night. We sat right above the sound console (something I used to operate) A Sony Onyx I think.
	♥ 7:25am HyperDose: 24-bit/192kHz WAVs take up a lot of space!
	♥ 7:25am john_zilla: "Possums are not cute". from that famous IG possum sesame
	♥ 7:27am dale: when the light goes down in the california town and people are in for the evening.
	♥ 7:27am john_zilla: instagram.com...
	😼 ♥ 7:27am Will the Sound Guy: I try to sit near the mixer at shows I don't work too. ..
	♥ 7:28am TDK60: Good morning.
	♥ 7:28am HyperDose: As long as Will has a burger and his baby within arm's reach, he's in the zone
	♥ 7:29am dday: Morning HyperDose: I stored them as AIFF's & MP3's (because my current car is older & won't play some formats.). There comes a time when it's less about "pristine audio" which my 60's through 80's LP's relinquished long ago in favor of health & space considerations.
	😼 ♥ 7:31am Will the Sound Guy: HD, don't always need that kind of resolution.. I should digitize my albums too... I use sonic foundry, an old EMU 1616m Cardbus that has a RIAA phono preamp onboard, and my Technics turntable...
	♥ 7:32am dday: @Will. Yes. My theory is I'm hearing what they are hearing. Mould was solo electric...LOUD. With filtering construction type ear plugs in, it sounded good 1st row balcony. Without the plugs, kind of a jumble as he's a mid-rangey guitar sound & reedy vocalist. Show was great. J.Robbins opened with a really nice set with him on acoustic guitar & a cello player. Really nice mix.
	😼 ♥ 7:32am Will the Sound Guy: honestly, I normally am 24bit, 48kHz... encode to MP3 using LAME VBR q=1
	♥ 7:33am HyperDose: That EMU interface looks kinda like a MOTU
	♥ 7:34am dday: @Will: Not to mention, I'm 64, my hearing is unfortunately starting to degrade with age as well. Just like the LP's, as an old rocker..you can't take it with you :)
	♥ 7:34am HyperDose: Yeah 24/48 is usually what I bounce out at after mixing down. 48 always had a bit more low-end clarity to me than 44.1
	7:36am Ben from Toledo: Tyson vs. Secretariat The Slaughter on the Water
	😼 ♥ 7:36am Will the Sound Guy: I bought a set of fitted earplugs. They cast a mold of your ears. I think it was crystal guardian... different attention discs for the inside. I wish I took better care of my ears decades ago...
	♥ 7:38am dday: Don't we all, but it's never too late to start
	7:40am Rob from Maryland: Ok, birding time. Bye everyone, have a great rest of the weekend!
	♥ 7:40am dday: Echidna's Arf of You: www.youtube.com...
	7:40am Loris Karloff: The Point!!!
	♥ 7:41am HyperDose: Smooth transition!
	😼 ♥ 7:41am pgalub: Good morning everyone!
	😼 ♥ 7:41am Will the Sound Guy: I'm 41, but have worked and gone to many punk and hardcore shows... Some level of tinnitus most of the time... I like when I work with the funk soul band I mix... I gotta have them horns...
	♥ 7:42am dday: I remember when Plymouth used Nilsson's Me & My Arrow to promote their Arrow model in the 70's
	7:42am Rob from Maryland: @dday, one of two times I permanently lost hearing in the 80s was at a show where a band called MFD/Music for the Deaf was on the bill. I've always found that kind of funny
	♥ 7:43am dday: Horns are fun and can be a challenge but when you get them right it's beuatiful
	♥ 7:43am Jim the Poet: Coincidentally my friend Edith just did a cartoon newsletter about a birdsong identifier app drawinglinks.substack.com...
	7:44am Rob from Maryland: @Will the Sound Guy, I pretty much have permanent tinnitus, and have for quite a while. I'm 64 now.
	♥ 7:44am Jim the Poet: Possibly you have to pay to see that, but Edith's cartoon newsletter is the best
	♥ 7:44am Strandlund: Good Morning Jim, Amanda and all you animals out there, good and bad.
	7:45am josh: a little goes a long way with the panther sound effects folks.
	♥ 7:45am dday: @Rob: as kids we used think it was cool when you got home from a show with your ears ringing for days, not realizing the damage it was doing. Loudest shows for me were bands like SLADE & Blue Oyster Cult. I didn't do the punk scene. Too busy supporting a family to see shows.
	♥ 7:45am Jim the Poet: Also, PS, if you haven't already and can afford to, please help out our pal Bryce while your wallet is out www.gofundme.com...
	7:45am Rob from Maryland: @Jim the Poet, your friend's cartoon is amusing.
	♥ 7:46am Jim the Poet: I know! Edith is amazing!
	7:47am Rob from Maryland: @dday, SLADE!! come on, feel the noise! The other band where I obvioiusly permanently lost hearing in the 80s was the Clash ...
	♥ 7:47am dday: Sex Panther rrrrrrrrr: www.youtube.com...
	7:47am Rob from Maryland: Ok, we're definitely going birding. Hopefully we'll see dancing rabbits too.
	♥ 7:49am Jim the Poet: The Merlin Birds Identifier App merlin.allaboutbirds.org
	♥ 7:50am TDK60: Good morning.
	😼 ♥ 7:50am Will the Sound Guy: I should get my hearing tested and see if I'm missing anything... I did sound for a band called trenchfoot once, it ruined my ears for the rest of the bill.. even a few days later. it was a bad show to forget even a crummy pair of earplugs... I had to keep checking that my ears weren't bleeding...
	😼 ♥ 7:52am Will the Sound Guy: if we can replace the tinnitus hum with purring...
	♥ 7:53am dday: I feel a Tull reference coming on :)
	♥ 7:53am TDK60: Hello Will. Get your ears tested, especially in your work. I got mine tested, now have an aid in one ear. Hissing is always there. Who to blame?! Jefferson Airplane? The Who? Black Flag? Me?
	♥ 7:54am HyperDose: Poorly placed highly reflective surfaces at live venues sure don't help
	😼 ♥ 7:57am melinda: Good morning everyone
	😼 ♥ 7:58am melinda: How exciting
	😼 ♥ 7:58am Will the Sound Guy: Thanks TDK60, I hear that through the fog... I also work as a land surveyor. I'm on roads, construction sites, and other loud environments. try hitting an iron manhole with a sledge hammer... super loud. or a jackhammer on an excavator fust going to town on a rock...
	😼 ♥ 7:59am Will the Sound Guy: KITH is coming back, I've heard about it. definitely want to check it out.
	😼 ♥ 8:02am melinda: I didn’t realize until recently that this was a TVZ song, I’d only heard it covered by Isobel Campbell and Mark Lanegan.
	♥ 8:02am dday: @Will. 25 years installing & testing fire alarm systems here. Bells, piezo notification devices etc. all = 85 db@10' (code requirement)
	♥ 8:03am dday: this has me doing the Rattlesnake Shake...boogie
	♥ 8:04am HyperDose: First thing I do after getting a new piece of exercise equipment is remove the piezo buzzer. Annoying little things
	♥ 8:04am dday: The link didn't post : www.youtube.com...
	8:06am Kathleen from JC: Good morning from Pittsburgh! We’re high up on the banks of the Ohio River and there’s a pure white eartipped cat in the yard next door. Tons of bird noise, too.
	♥ 8:06am Jim the Poet: Hey Kathleen!
	♥ 8:06am dday: HD: yet..that is their purpose :) I often had people ask me "why does the fire alarm have to be so loud when it goes off?" hmmmm
	😼 ♥ 8:06am Will the Sound Guy: dday, that would do it for sure
	♥ 8:12am dday: Will: I took a break from alarm work for a year in 98-99 (11 years into the FA biz at that time) to attend a recording engineering school in AZ. We had our hearing tested & amazingly at 40 years old, my hearing was better than most of of my much younger classmates.
	♥ 8:13am HyperDose: @dday Luckily my microwave has a low volume setting. Don't need to be aggressively reminded I'm too stoned to get up and take the popcorn out haha
	♥ 8:14am dday: I yell at the microwave daily :)
	♥ 8:14am luka: gm animals
	😼 ♥ 8:15am Will the Sound Guy: dday: right on, that's pretty cool. My hearing is still pretty good, I hear transformers and balasts humming all the time. drives me nuts... I should get my hearing tested tho...
	😼 ♥ 8:15am dave wuz here: dog, coffee , thou.
	8:16am Chris from Maryland: Hey Kathleen! My mom was from Sewickley!
	♥ 8:18am dday: Will: People used to think I was nuts, but I used to hear the high pitch whine of old TV flyback transformers when you first turned the old CRT set on.
	♥ 8:20am HyperDose: I'm supersonic too, dday. Would always remind my late elderly neighbor across the hall at my last place that he left his TV on.
	😼 ♥ 8:20am Will the Sound Guy: dday, Oh I know the sound you're talking about. I remember that. i think we had an old quasar or zenith that used to do that.
	😼 ♥ 8:23am Will the Sound Guy: I have to work in high voltage easements from time to time... you can actually hear the power surging through the lines in addition to the 60 hz hum.
	♥ 8:23am dday: And watch that picture tube anode connection 10K to 35K volts will knock you back. The hair on my arms stood on edge for an hour after being hit
	♥ 8:24am HyperDose: How big of a Hum-X plug do you think you'd need to quell all that noise, Will? 😄
	😼 ♥ 8:25am Will the Sound Guy: HD, throw a switch at the power plant..
	8:32am Kathleen from JC: Hey Chris! I see where Sewickley is. Not far from a lovely Mexican restaurant where we ate last night. We’re in McKee’s Rocks.
	♥ 8:35am dday: Betty & Bam Bam .. "Nobody knows the Rubble's they've seen." If they're anything like my Drella..energy is on full display all the time
	♥ 8:36am Marley P. Dogg: Good morning Amanda and Jim! Someone adopt those kittens!
	♥ 8:37am Amanda: Good morning Marley P Dogg and everyone!!! Seconded!!
	8:38am Kathleen from JC: I’m loving this track! FMU’s own Abbie from Mars!
	♥ 8:39am Dano59: Abbie from Mars just continues to surprise. Also it was nice to hear both Satie (with crows) and Rachel Sweet this a.m.
	8:40am Listener Robert: "I am quite willing to be the black willing." Clear as a bell.
	♥ 8:41am mespr: I love your program. We are a cat family. My son has launched and wants to adopt a cat into his life. He's trying and earnest and good willed, but cat adoption is fraught with rules that belie the plight of not being adopted. Can you discuss this?
	♥ 8:43am dday: Kathleen: when I worked in Pittsburg for a few months back in the late 90's I used to go buy pierogis from a lady at her home home in McKee's Rocks. I want to say there was a little tiny diner there as well right up against a bridge abutment with great food.
	♥ 8:45am Amanda: @mespr Thank you for your kind words! I don't feel like this is the proper forum to address that issue, but it puts me in mind of an article that was published a year or so ago in... New York magazine, maybe? Or NYT? About dog adoption, not cat adoption, but it might be worth a read.
	♥ 8:49am mespr: Thank you. I have a friend who was recently so befuddled by dog adoption she went to a breeder. My cats are very happy with the programming btw.
	8:50am Kathleen from JC: Mespr - I believe in decriminalizing cat adoption. When rescues put up barriers, they’re trying to prevent abuse and abandonment, but that doesn’t work. A conversational, educational approach to cat adoption is what the National orgs promote these days. If someone wants to live and care for a cat, it’s the job of an adoption agency to guide that person to a cat who will fit their personality and lifestyle, and to ask the person if they have cat care questions. No “gotcha” questions or judgment. Truly unsuitable adopters are rare.
	😼 ♥ 8:52am DjLorraine: Good morning. A new show to love. Thanks Amanda and Jim the Poet (you make me laugh often) www.audiocheck.net...
	8:52am Xangoir: My chickens are fully disturbed by these elephant noises
	😼 ♥ 8:52am dave wuz here: ralphie my pet balloon!
	♥ 8:52am dday: Or find a stray that will love you :)
	♥ 8:52am Amanda: I'd be remiss in not plugging the awesome rescue org puppykittynyc or Puppy Kitty NY City! They helped me adopt my cat Junior and were so helpful. I get the sense they will always help us if we have questions about him.
	😼 ♥ 8:54am Will the Sound Guy: Thank you Amanda and Jim!!! Be well everyone!!!
	8:56am Kathleen from JC: Have a great day, all! Thanks, Amanda and Jim!
	♥ 8:57am dday: Fun Fact: Bobby Goldsboro taught Keith Richards the "open A" guitar tuning when The Stones opened for him in America in the '60's. And the rest is history.
	8:57am Listener Robert: It occurs to me that if the ASPCA had known what we were doing, they might not have allowed my parents to adopt a cat, knowing I was allergic to cats and therefore could not have them in the house. But all the pet cats in our neighborhood were alley cats who technically had owners.
	♥ 8:58am slugluv1313: BETTY and BAM BAM 😻😻 and Thai Elephant Orchestra 💜💜💜 coming up for air, been listening & loving the show -- THANK YOU!!!
	♥ 8:59am Dano59: Ray Davies is a (wait for it) phenomenal cat!
	♥ 8:59am Jim the Poet: Thanks everyone! Happy Birthday, Billy Joel!
	♥ 8:59am Amanda: THANK YOU ALL kind pets and peeps!

	6:23am Loris Karloff: The bird song coming from the window and the bird song coming from the speaker is all meshing together
	6:24am Crei6hton: Morning WFMU

	😼 ♥ 6:25am Will the Sound Guy: Be well morphe'
	😼 ♥ 6:26am Will the Sound Guy: Hi Loris and Crei6hton
	6:27am Rob from Maryland: Good morning to everyone!
	😼 ♥ 6:29am Will the Sound Guy: we had a turkey gobbling around a few minutes ago... must have wandered off to the neighbors yard.
	♥ 6:29am HyperDose: Got White Castle in the freezer. I think Jim is trying to tell me something.
	6:29am Loris Karloff: Hi Will the Sound Guy, Amanda & Jim, fellow playlisters, and all animals of all level and manner of baditude
	♥ 6:30am dale: morning. sure wish i could hear purring in the morning instead of MEOW (tap). MEOW (tap tap).
	♥ 6:30am Amanda: Turkeys are absolutely brazen and unhinged
	♥ 6:31am Amanda: Lol I wish my cat would meow to wake me in the morning, instead he just bites my skin.
	6:32am P-90: Maybe he’s part turkey
	😼 ♥ 6:34am Will the Sound Guy: I'll try to get a picture next time, they wander over a bit.
	♥ 6:36am dale: i used to get a lot of turkeys. i think the winter with less snow cover might have thinned them out.
	😼 ♥ 6:36am Will the Sound Guy: I'd rather have the turkeys visit 🦃 than the deer 🦌... it's much safer on our plants, less ticks too.
	😼 ♥ 6:37am Will the Sound Guy: Hi Rob and dale!
	♥ 6:37am HyperDose: Aren't chickens worse though because they murder EVERYTHING lol
	♥ 6:40am Bobby: I was not ready for the bell. I froze and started looking for the source
	😼 ♥ 6:41am Will the Sound Guy: HD, probably... they can be pretty brutal
	6:42am Cooh John: Good morning Jim, Amanda, and manimals, from the home of White Castle.
	😼 ♥ 6:42am Will the Sound Guy: Good morning Cooh John!
	♥ 6:43am Jim the Poet: Athens, GA!

	♥ 6:46am Bobby: This is the best thing ever
	6:48am Cooh John: Good morning Will. How is the sound biz?
	♥ 6:48am Dave the Spazz: I am so Looney Tuney touched in the head--please pass the ketchup I think I'll go to bed!
	♥ 6:49am Amanda: THIS GUY GETS IT!
	😼 ♥ 6:50am Will the Sound Guy: it's buzzing, I'm working a show Sunday, and the Friday coming up ... summer is getting pretty booked up.
	6:54am Toothgrinder Tom: Every morning should begin with this cuckoo song.
	6:56am Rob from Maryland: Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird, she hollers when she flies (I think I got the words right) is from a song that Kristin Hersh recorded in the 90s
	6:56am Cooh John: Sounds good, Will. I usually thank the sound guys when I go to shows.🎶👍
	♥ 6:56am Dave the Spazz: And now my favorite Beach Men song! I'm sticking near the radio today...
	♥ 6:57am Jim the Poet: Keep it locked to the fun 91!
	6:58am Cooh John: Spazz alert!
	6:59am P-90: Jim sounds like (legendary actor) Lee J.Cobb
	7:04am Toothgrinder Tom: @Rob I’ve heard that song covered by many artists, I think it’s traditional.
	7:07am Rob from Maryland: @Toothgrinder, I guess I only know her version. It's definitely traditional.
	7:08am Rob from Maryland: @Amanda & Jim, thanks for playing the Rachel Sweet song. It's been sooo long since I've listened to that album.
	♥ 7:09am dale: the cuckoo goes waaaay back. en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 7:10am Dave the Spazz: Now I can start my day!
	♥ 7:11am john_zilla: wow cardigans
	7:12am Toothgrinder Tom: In fact it’s one of the first folk songs I remember hearing, when I was a child, on WETA’s folk program which my parents listened to faithfully.
	♥ 7:12am dale: were they really the first band on the moon? or was it faked on a soundstage?
	♥ 7:13am HyperDose: Me gusta!
	♥ 7:15am dday: Nina Persson..mmmmm
	♥ 7:15am dale: murphey's used to sell parakeets. i had a pair. an open window at night will kill them. ask how i know.
	♥ 7:17am dday: Murderous Chickens..good band name..but in other chicken news: relevantmagazine.com...
	♥ 7:17am HyperDose: Rocky and Bullwinkle <3
	7:19am Menlo Park: monk parrots or Quaker parrots are attracted to the heat given off by the transformers and other equipment high up on the utility poles.
	♥ 7:19am dale: didn't they pick their name by throwing a dart at a map of the u.s.? i know they wanted to sound more american so they wanted a city in their name.
	♥ 7:20am dday: And now Tick Talk . Opossums eat ticks & are harmless marsupials. Don't harm them. They eat ticks. How many ? Who knows for sure but even one less tick is good :) Opossums are also notable for their ability to clean themselves of ticks, which they then eat. Some estimates suggest they can eliminate up to 5,000 ticks in a season. More recent research indicates the large consumption of ticks may not be true.
	😼 ♥ 7:21am Will the Sound Guy: I support the opossum! 👍🏻
	7:24am P-90: Bad Boy Jim got dismissed from the Boy’s and Girl’s Choir?
	♥ 7:24am dday: Good Morning Amanda. Digitize your LP's. Preserves the audio which defrades just from being in storage. USB turntable & Audacity makes it easy. I did over 1000's LP's . Fit 2 versions of each LP on an external 5TB Seagate Slim Drive. Made the decision to sell my LP's after a heart attack in 2017. LP's are HEAVY. :)
	♥ 7:24am john_zilla: cool possum book just came out : www.quirkbooks.com...
	♥ 7:25am dday: Good Morning Will. Was thinking of you at Bob Mould last night. We sat right above the sound console (something I used to operate) A Sony Onyx I think.
	♥ 7:25am HyperDose: 24-bit/192kHz WAVs take up a lot of space!
	♥ 7:25am john_zilla: "Possums are not cute". from that famous IG possum sesame
	♥ 7:27am dale: when the light goes down in the california town and people are in for the evening.
	♥ 7:27am john_zilla: instagram.com...
	😼 ♥ 7:27am Will the Sound Guy: I try to sit near the mixer at shows I don't work too. ..
	♥ 7:28am TDK60: Good morning.
	♥ 7:28am HyperDose: As long as Will has a burger and his baby within arm's reach, he's in the zone
	♥ 7:29am dday: Morning HyperDose: I stored them as AIFF's & MP3's (because my current car is older & won't play some formats.). There comes a time when it's less about "pristine audio" which my 60's through 80's LP's relinquished long ago in favor of health & space considerations.
	😼 ♥ 7:31am Will the Sound Guy: HD, don't always need that kind of resolution.. I should digitize my albums too... I use sonic foundry, an old EMU 1616m Cardbus that has a RIAA phono preamp onboard, and my Technics turntable...
	♥ 7:32am dday: @Will. Yes. My theory is I'm hearing what they are hearing. Mould was solo electric...LOUD. With filtering construction type ear plugs in, it sounded good 1st row balcony. Without the plugs, kind of a jumble as he's a mid-rangey guitar sound & reedy vocalist. Show was great. J.Robbins opened with a really nice set with him on acoustic guitar & a cello player. Really nice mix.
	😼 ♥ 7:32am Will the Sound Guy: honestly, I normally am 24bit, 48kHz... encode to MP3 using LAME VBR q=1
	♥ 7:33am HyperDose: That EMU interface looks kinda like a MOTU
	♥ 7:34am dday: @Will: Not to mention, I'm 64, my hearing is unfortunately starting to degrade with age as well. Just like the LP's, as an old rocker..you can't take it with you :)
	♥ 7:34am HyperDose: Yeah 24/48 is usually what I bounce out at after mixing down. 48 always had a bit more low-end clarity to me than 44.1
	7:36am Ben from Toledo: Tyson vs. Secretariat The Slaughter on the Water
	😼 ♥ 7:36am Will the Sound Guy: I bought a set of fitted earplugs. They cast a mold of your ears. I think it was crystal guardian... different attention discs for the inside. I wish I took better care of my ears decades ago...
	♥ 7:38am dday: Don't we all, but it's never too late to start
	7:40am Rob from Maryland: Ok, birding time. Bye everyone, have a great rest of the weekend!
	♥ 7:40am dday: Echidna's Arf of You: www.youtube.com...
	7:40am Loris Karloff: The Point!!!
	♥ 7:41am HyperDose: Smooth transition!
	😼 ♥ 7:41am pgalub: Good morning everyone!
	😼 ♥ 7:41am Will the Sound Guy: I'm 41, but have worked and gone to many punk and hardcore shows... Some level of tinnitus most of the time... I like when I work with the funk soul band I mix... I gotta have them horns...
	♥ 7:42am dday: I remember when Plymouth used Nilsson's Me & My Arrow to promote their Arrow model in the 70's
	7:42am Rob from Maryland: @dday, one of two times I permanently lost hearing in the 80s was at a show where a band called MFD/Music for the Deaf was on the bill. I've always found that kind of funny
	♥ 7:43am dday: Horns are fun and can be a challenge but when you get them right it's beuatiful
	♥ 7:43am Jim the Poet: Coincidentally my friend Edith just did a cartoon newsletter about a birdsong identifier app drawinglinks.substack.com...
	7:44am Rob from Maryland: @Will the Sound Guy, I pretty much have permanent tinnitus, and have for quite a while. I'm 64 now.
	♥ 7:44am Jim the Poet: Possibly you have to pay to see that, but Edith's cartoon newsletter is the best
	♥ 7:44am Strandlund: Good Morning Jim, Amanda and all you animals out there, good and bad.
	7:45am josh: a little goes a long way with the panther sound effects folks.
	♥ 7:45am dday: @Rob: as kids we used think it was cool when you got home from a show with your ears ringing for days, not realizing the damage it was doing. Loudest shows for me were bands like SLADE & Blue Oyster Cult. I didn't do the punk scene. Too busy supporting a family to see shows.
	♥ 7:45am Jim the Poet: Also, PS, if you haven't already and can afford to, please help out our pal Bryce while your wallet is out www.gofundme.com...
	7:45am Rob from Maryland: @Jim the Poet, your friend's cartoon is amusing.
	♥ 7:46am Jim the Poet: I know! Edith is amazing!
	7:47am Rob from Maryland: @dday, SLADE!! come on, feel the noise! The other band where I obvioiusly permanently lost hearing in the 80s was the Clash ...
	♥ 7:47am dday: Sex Panther rrrrrrrrr: www.youtube.com...
	7:47am Rob from Maryland: Ok, we're definitely going birding. Hopefully we'll see dancing rabbits too.
	♥ 7:49am Jim the Poet: The Merlin Birds Identifier App merlin.allaboutbirds.org
	♥ 7:50am TDK60: Good morning.
	😼 ♥ 7:50am Will the Sound Guy: I should get my hearing tested and see if I'm missing anything... I did sound for a band called trenchfoot once, it ruined my ears for the rest of the bill.. even a few days later. it was a bad show to forget even a crummy pair of earplugs... I had to keep checking that my ears weren't bleeding...
	😼 ♥ 7:52am Will the Sound Guy: if we can replace the tinnitus hum with purring...
	♥ 7:53am dday: I feel a Tull reference coming on :)
	♥ 7:53am TDK60: Hello Will. Get your ears tested, especially in your work. I got mine tested, now have an aid in one ear. Hissing is always there. Who to blame?! Jefferson Airplane? The Who? Black Flag? Me?
	♥ 7:54am HyperDose: Poorly placed highly reflective surfaces at live venues sure don't help
	😼 ♥ 7:57am melinda: Good morning everyone
	😼 ♥ 7:58am melinda: How exciting
	😼 ♥ 7:58am Will the Sound Guy: Thanks TDK60, I hear that through the fog... I also work as a land surveyor. I'm on roads, construction sites, and other loud environments. try hitting an iron manhole with a sledge hammer... super loud. or a jackhammer on an excavator fust going to town on a rock...
	😼 ♥ 7:59am Will the Sound Guy: KITH is coming back, I've heard about it. definitely want to check it out.
	😼 ♥ 8:02am melinda: I didn’t realize until recently that this was a TVZ song, I’d only heard it covered by Isobel Campbell and Mark Lanegan.
	♥ 8:02am dday: @Will. 25 years installing & testing fire alarm systems here. Bells, piezo notification devices etc. all = 85 db@10' (code requirement)
	♥ 8:03am dday: this has me doing the Rattlesnake Shake...boogie
	♥ 8:04am HyperDose: First thing I do after getting a new piece of exercise equipment is remove the piezo buzzer. Annoying little things
	♥ 8:04am dday: The link didn't post : www.youtube.com...
	8:06am Kathleen from JC: Good morning from Pittsburgh! We’re high up on the banks of the Ohio River and there’s a pure white eartipped cat in the yard next door. Tons of bird noise, too.
	♥ 8:06am Jim the Poet: Hey Kathleen!
	♥ 8:06am dday: HD: yet..that is their purpose :) I often had people ask me "why does the fire alarm have to be so loud when it goes off?" hmmmm
	😼 ♥ 8:06am Will the Sound Guy: dday, that would do it for sure
	♥ 8:12am dday: Will: I took a break from alarm work for a year in 98-99 (11 years into the FA biz at that time) to attend a recording engineering school in AZ. We had our hearing tested & amazingly at 40 years old, my hearing was better than most of of my much younger classmates.
	♥ 8:13am HyperDose: @dday Luckily my microwave has a low volume setting. Don't need to be aggressively reminded I'm too stoned to get up and take the popcorn out haha
	♥ 8:14am dday: I yell at the microwave daily :)
	♥ 8:14am luka: gm animals
	😼 ♥ 8:15am Will the Sound Guy: dday: right on, that's pretty cool. My hearing is still pretty good, I hear transformers and balasts humming all the time. drives me nuts... I should get my hearing tested tho...
	😼 ♥ 8:15am dave wuz here: dog, coffee , thou.
	8:16am Chris from Maryland: Hey Kathleen! My mom was from Sewickley!
	♥ 8:18am dday: Will: People used to think I was nuts, but I used to hear the high pitch whine of old TV flyback transformers when you first turned the old CRT set on.
	♥ 8:20am HyperDose: I'm supersonic too, dday. Would always remind my late elderly neighbor across the hall at my last place that he left his TV on.
	😼 ♥ 8:20am Will the Sound Guy: dday, Oh I know the sound you're talking about. I remember that. i think we had an old quasar or zenith that used to do that.
	😼 ♥ 8:23am Will the Sound Guy: I have to work in high voltage easements from time to time... you can actually hear the power surging through the lines in addition to the 60 hz hum.
	♥ 8:23am dday: And watch that picture tube anode connection 10K to 35K volts will knock you back. The hair on my arms stood on edge for an hour after being hit
	♥ 8:24am HyperDose: How big of a Hum-X plug do you think you'd need to quell all that noise, Will? 😄
	😼 ♥ 8:25am Will the Sound Guy: HD, throw a switch at the power plant..
	8:32am Kathleen from JC: Hey Chris! I see where Sewickley is. Not far from a lovely Mexican restaurant where we ate last night. We’re in McKee’s Rocks.
	♥ 8:35am dday: Betty & Bam Bam .. "Nobody knows the Rubble's they've seen." If they're anything like my Drella..energy is on full display all the time
	♥ 8:36am Marley P. Dogg: Good morning Amanda and Jim! Someone adopt those kittens!
	♥ 8:37am Amanda: Good morning Marley P Dogg and everyone!!! Seconded!!
	8:38am Kathleen from JC: I’m loving this track! FMU’s own Abbie from Mars!
	♥ 8:39am Dano59: Abbie from Mars just continues to surprise. Also it was nice to hear both Satie (with crows) and Rachel Sweet this a.m.
	8:40am Listener Robert: "I am quite willing to be the black willing." Clear as a bell.
	♥ 8:41am mespr: I love your program. We are a cat family. My son has launched and wants to adopt a cat into his life. He's trying and earnest and good willed, but cat adoption is fraught with rules that belie the plight of not being adopted. Can you discuss this?
	♥ 8:43am dday: Kathleen: when I worked in Pittsburg for a few months back in the late 90's I used to go buy pierogis from a lady at her home home in McKee's Rocks. I want to say there was a little tiny diner there as well right up against a bridge abutment with great food.
	♥ 8:45am Amanda: @mespr Thank you for your kind words! I don't feel like this is the proper forum to address that issue, but it puts me in mind of an article that was published a year or so ago in... New York magazine, maybe? Or NYT? About dog adoption, not cat adoption, but it might be worth a read.
	♥ 8:49am mespr: Thank you. I have a friend who was recently so befuddled by dog adoption she went to a breeder. My cats are very happy with the programming btw.
	8:50am Kathleen from JC: Mespr - I believe in decriminalizing cat adoption. When rescues put up barriers, they’re trying to prevent abuse and abandonment, but that doesn’t work. A conversational, educational approach to cat adoption is what the National orgs promote these days. If someone wants to live and care for a cat, it’s the job of an adoption agency to guide that person to a cat who will fit their personality and lifestyle, and to ask the person if they have cat care questions. No “gotcha” questions or judgment. Truly unsuitable adopters are rare.
	😼 ♥ 8:52am DjLorraine: Good morning. A new show to love. Thanks Amanda and Jim the Poet (you make me laugh often) www.audiocheck.net...
	8:52am Xangoir: My chickens are fully disturbed by these elephant noises
	😼 ♥ 8:52am dave wuz here: ralphie my pet balloon!
	♥ 8:52am dday: Or find a stray that will love you :)
	♥ 8:52am Amanda: I'd be remiss in not plugging the awesome rescue org puppykittynyc or Puppy Kitty NY City! They helped me adopt my cat Junior and were so helpful. I get the sense they will always help us if we have questions about him.
	😼 ♥ 8:54am Will the Sound Guy: Thank you Amanda and Jim!!! Be well everyone!!!
	8:56am Kathleen from JC: Have a great day, all! Thanks, Amanda and Jim!
	♥ 8:57am dday: Fun Fact: Bobby Goldsboro taught Keith Richards the "open A" guitar tuning when The Stones opened for him in America in the '60's. And the rest is history.
	8:57am Listener Robert: It occurs to me that if the ASPCA had known what we were doing, they might not have allowed my parents to adopt a cat, knowing I was allergic to cats and therefore could not have them in the house. But all the pet cats in our neighborhood were alley cats who technically had owners.
	♥ 8:58am slugluv1313: BETTY and BAM BAM 😻😻 and Thai Elephant Orchestra 💜💜💜 coming up for air, been listening & loving the show -- THANK YOU!!!
	♥ 8:59am Dano59: Ray Davies is a (wait for it) phenomenal cat!
	♥ 8:59am Jim the Poet: Thanks everyone! Happy Birthday, Billy Joel!
	♥ 8:59am Amanda: THANK YOU ALL kind pets and peeps!
