	9:04am Dances with Moomins: Good Morning Modern Jersey
	9:05am John from Florham park: Hello fellow troublemakers
	♥ 9:06am Trouble: good morning good thursday people! steady on, november's coming...
	♥ 9:06am TDK60: Hey there Handy. My melancholy is still good, hasn't rotted yet.
	9:08am Snoochienucci: Nothing like a little trouble on a rainy morning
	♥ 9:09am karlward: More like "This is the Dope World."
	9:11am raszzyy (Sweden): Good Morning-Afternoon from six hours into the future. Ain't time travel grand!
	9:15am Izzy: good afternoon, from the future, liebe moderne Welt
	♥ 9:19am ParUbi: Good morning, Trouble, ibrahim el-salahi, and troubledors
	♥ 9:21am briania: Hang 'em high, Trouble.
	♥ 9:21am Strandlund: This set just gets better and better!!
	9:21am Listener Robert: Ah, the Ray-O-Vac jingle.
	9:21am John from Florham park: @Parubi morning
	♥ 9:22am ParUbi: Good morning, John fFp!
	9:28am Tootsiepop: A Chiiwahwah good morning everyone
	♥ 9:28am melinda: morning Trouble and everyone
	♥ 9:31am Ken From Hyde Park: Yay, a Medal of Freedom for Lonnie Holley! Much more deserved than a random loud-mouthed goon who gets one these days.
	♥ 9:33am Trouble: right? i'm in that camp@ken from hyde park
	9:38am andrewhsini: morning trouble! the babe is digging the tunes! so are we! xo
	9:39am John from Florham park: @Trouble as much as I feel bad about rush having lung cancer I thought the medal was a little much
	♥ 9:42am Roberto: Wow, Lonnie's 70? The dude is ageless!
	♥ 9:42am Vivian: Did anyone notice that Rush was awarded the medal on Rosa Park's birthday? Such an insult to her memory.
	♥ 9:43am Trouble: it's all distraction peeps, don't pay attention and march onward! work for social justice and environmental rights in your communities!
	♥ 9:43am TDK60: Vivian. Rosa Parks interests me. Not that other person.
	♥ 9:44am Handy Haversack: Well said, Trouble. Nailed it in one!
	♥ 9:45am Roberto: Yes, tRump is Palpatine and we're all Jedis ;)
	♥ 9:45am Roberto: Except Palpatine is kinda cool in a way. tRump, not so much.
	9:46am John from Florham park: Thank you trouble
	♥ 9:46am ParUbi: Right, the Spectacle and the passivity it encourages only helps the status quo
	9:48am JakeGould: Trouble is right. But be careful of empowered bigots in the aftermath of this all. Nobody here really can affect the nonsense that is happening with Drumpf and his thugs. But the reality is I think everyone here has the power to be more aware of nonsense happening around them in the real world. Meaning, morons who see Drumpf’s non-impeachment as validation of behavior might just decide to be more racist, hateful and bigoted. That is not needed. That should be reacted to.
	♥ 9:48am CHUCK ROAST: Greetings from the Mid-Atlantic, y'all.
	9:49am John from Florham park: If it is not for this station and a couple of others I would go really bonkers
	♥ 9:51am Vivian: @well said JackGould.
	9:51am Wm from Denton: I'd like to thank this station for getting me through the dentist.
	9:52am JakeGould: Also, tons of undeserving things win awards all the time. For example, what film won best picture Oscar in 1980? “Ordinary People” a film most people didn’t care about by 1981. You know what film also came out in 1980 that is still popular, taught in film school and considered a classic? “Raging Bull.” It didn’t win an Oscar but it’s respect and well regarded? How did that happen!
	♥ 9:52am melinda: Enjoying the synth. Also, soft boiled eggies is the cutest band name.
	♥ 9:53am Hubig Pie: My dentist plays all the hits
	♥ 9:54am Yes: hey all
	♥ 9:54am melinda: I loved Ordinary People. But you are right Jake, the Oscars suck.
	9:54am Izzy: I can't overstate how much I love the band name"Soft Boiled Eggies", and not just because that's my go-to brekkie food
	9:57am peonie:
	9:57am John from Florham park: @Melinda morning Hey my fellow troublemakers I listen to a lot of international news like the The BBC and the CBC, radio Australia and RNZI, because frankly I cants stand cable news with its all trump all the time bullshit
	♥ 10:03am βrian: Entrez, les oiseaux !
	♥ 10:06am jdaAndAnoukFromKöln: wasnt that song used for any ad-spot?
	♥ 10:07am jdaAndAnoukFromKöln: 1997… good i am getting old… www.youtube.com...

	10:16am krpprltrbf: Very nice show and artwork today!
	10:16am will from Hampton: @Trouble email joe mcgasko? I’m not certain who to reach out to
	♥ 10:17am melinda: Godfather of plant music, haha! I love Plantasia.
	♥ 10:18am Trouble: yes@adrian, sounds like a great day out of the city
	♥ 10:18am Adrian in London: Actually more than just Lonnie turnercontemporary.org...
	♥ 10:18am Trouble: merci@krppr...
	♥ 10:18am CHUCK ROAST: Coneheads !
	♥ 10:19am βrian: Do we lose our pumpkins on Valentine's Day?
	♥ 10:20am Trouble: scott williams is the man in charge of voluteer wrangling. scott@wfmudotorg
	♥ 10:20am Phillippe Bastille: God morning
	♥ 10:21am Handy Haversack: Happy holydays, Phillippe Bastille!
	10:22am Tootsiepop: Art Is Life: Don't Kill It
	♥ 10:22am melinda: I think the Soft Cell version of Where Did Our Love Go is the first one I heard, still my favorite.
	♥ 10:24am Jeff Moore: Is this Soft Cell jam meant to be a way to escape briefly from the dumpster fire we live in? It's kind of working for me.
	♥ 10:25am melinda: The dance troupe Pilobolus used this in a performance I saw on PBS a long time ago.
	♥ 10:26am Phillippe Bastille: Thanks Handy! I have 2 pay for each O I use so I try 2 keep them 2 a minimum
	10:26am Matthew: You are killing it Trouble great mix
	10:26am MG: Have never heard this version of To The End! So lovely. Thanks, Trouble.
	♥ 10:27am waters7: merci merci merci
	♥ 10:27am Trouble: isn't that my show every week@jeff moore?
	♥ 10:28am Handy Haversack: Ooo, that's rough tough stough, @Phillippe! Also: Trouble, this is a wonderful set.
	♥ 10:29am The Oscar: Been busy working, but today's show is especially killer so far. Never heard this Blur/Francoise!
	10:29am peonie: This is sick
	♥ 10:30am Phillippe Bastille: @Handy It appears u purchased many at a bulk rate
	♥ 10:31am Adrian in London: Who is singing Helen's Song? It sounds like Virginia Astley
	♥ 10:31am melinda: I'm watching a video about a tiny house in New Zealand with the sound off, this is good soundtrack.
	♥ 10:33am βrian: Crepescule is a weird word.
	♥ 10:34am Handy Haversack: @Phillippe: Discount for Oulipos!
	♥ 10:35am Trouble: yes it is virginia asteley with jean-paul goude as the dream makers @adrian
	10:36am prudy: lovely piano for a grey day, or any day for that matter...thanks Trouble
	♥ 10:39am Adrian in London: @Trouble Thanks. She's a poet now; occasionally does readings here in the UK
	♥ 10:39am βrian: A lovely bright day on the isthmus today. On the other hand, we have our first confirmed case of corona virus on campus.
	♥ 10:41am Trouble: gracias@ prudy, matthew, waters7, MG, peonie, et all. glad to be of musical service on this gray day
	10:41am Snoochienucci: theres something about this corona virus that seems very fishy to me. I think theres alot more going on in china than they lead on
	♥ 10:41am melinda: Good snow music as well.
	♥ 10:42am Jeff Moore: @Trouble: yes, it is, but today it seems like the music with more quiet contemplative space between the notes is leaving room for the garbage juice to seep back in. May next week and the week after leave me better able to let go into calm!
	♥ 10:42am Trouble: event celbratin the theremin this saturday: ambient.church...
	♥ 10:44am CHUCK ROAST: Will Lothar be there ?
	♥ 10:45am steveo: Good morning; quietly lurking about today & enjoying greatly; i'm looking at John McCowen, solo contrabass clarinet, for Saturday eve in Downtown Brooklyn
	10:45am John from Florham park: @Prudy one if those days I just want to crawl back into bed, but I have things to do @Snooch you think it was biological warfare that China was trying to do?
	10:45am krpprltrbf: Really splendid work. I am not often able to listen to this live (afternoon in NL) but it really adds to the experience. Goose bumps. Are there any episodes where you talk about how you became a DJ/got involved with WFMU, @trouble?
	♥ 10:46am TDK60: That Theremin event sounds fab! Are tix pricey? Chuck: I saw Lothar & the Hand People once; it's true.
	10:47am Skitch: Disappointed that the Met's Theremin is not on their audio tour. A major omittance. Not good. Looks good - sounds silent. Great show!!!!!!
	♥ 10:48am steveo: @skitch, i love to look at the Met's musical instrument collection but, yeah, i always think "does anyone ever get to play these?"
	♥ 10:50am Phillippe Bastille: @snoochi Aljazeera has been taking it seriously. Their reporting on the coronavirus has been their lead story for days.
	10:50am prudy: jfp: yes, yesterday's demonstration of government irrationality has rendered this great experiment just that. It's only going to get worse...days in bed seem a good option...
	10:51am Skitch: @steveo Clearly no. Not much. Same in Berlin. Their musical instrument museum has an Ondes Martenot and other cool pieces. Don' think about hearing them except on the third Sunday after Lent between 3:00 and 3:12. Sheesh.
	10:52am Snoochienucci: @jffp i mean i wouldnt be surprised. I saw a clip on the news last night of a supposed hosipital in china with bodyies lined up in bags on stretchers in parking lots. Un-verified of course, but still scary stuff
	10:52am Snoochienucci: @phillippe ill have to check it out, i feel like there are def more deaths in china than they have been reporting
	10:53am Snoochienucci: glad im on the east coast and far from the main land china lol
	10:53am Sketch: Brap brap brap
	♥ 10:53am Passaic River Blues: Cornell Campbell!
	♥ 10:53am TDK60: Steveo: I was in the Met instruments room once, looking at old guitars. An apparently-famous violinist came in and staff took out an old fiddle from the glass cases; he played it. He had museum staff around him, maybe to keep anyone back from falling into the violin.
	10:53am Sketch: Big Up Cornel Campbell today is his nephew Joseph's birthday
	♥ 10:54am Passaic River Blues: Oops! Sorry, Horace--heard the Gorgon and just assumed.
	10:56am Sketch: He's doing cornels tune tho.
	10:56am Sketch: Cornel is the brother of Jah Wise, legendary record collector. Many people know him as the man who paints the lion of judah on horsemouths motorcycle in the movie rockers
	10:58am Sketch: Jah wise has a son Joseph who is an amazing singer under the name Di Ras, and today is his earth strong. Big up the Campbell family!
	♥ 10:58am steveo: @TDK that sounds nice
	10:59am The Gutterman: I've NEVER been able to find the dang lyrics to that better collie. Any help? Lyric sites give lyrics to wrong song, some glitch or something'.
	11:00am The Butterman: its supposed to be the BUTTERMAN-stupid computer
	♥ 11:01am Hubig Pie: Claudine Longet ?
	11:02am John from Florham park: @Snooch sounded like something that Hoyt out of hand and might do a number on them
	♥ 11:02am Strandlund: Sharp shooter Claudine Longet?
	11:02am John from Florham park: @Gutterman try using Shazam they are great for lyrics
	11:03am Snoochienucci: i love me them birdies
	♥ 11:03am Hubig Pie: Hey Claudine , whats that in your upper drawer ? Since when do you pack a 44 ?
	11:04am Skitch: Love Claudine! Discovered her in 1967. Wow.
	♥ 11:07am The Oscar: One time a friend said, apropos of nothing, "I'm the ghost of Clara Rockmore-- wooOOOOooooOOOoooOOO!" I couldn't breathe for a good five minutes.
	♥ 11:08am Webhamster Henry: There'll be lots of Theremin activities this year!
	♥ 11:08am Handy Haversack: Year of the Theremin! That's a calendar I can get behind!
	11:09am Skitch: @Handy I second that sentiment.
	♥ 11:10am Roberto: Oh yeah that happened to me a couple of years ago, the conjunctivitis. It actually happened while I was on a plane. I wore my sunglasses for the entire flight.
	11:10am Skitch: More long sets please, Trouble.
	♥ 11:13am TDK60: Been playin' guitar/singing at open mikes recently, enduring the usually-maybe-almost-funny comics with my "heh-hehs".
	♥ 11:16am steveo: @tdk you should write a song made up of bad jokes so you fit in
	11:19am Skitch: OK here we go.
	11:21am morning: I love your show so much. I’ve been listening for years. I rarely get to listen real time so it’s a treat as I drive to work. ❤️ Sare - From portland Oregon
	♥ 11:21am the Master: Awesome journey ahead!
	11:22am Fletchernyc: Thank you so much for playing Fripp/Eno!!
	♥ 11:23am steveo: that was a very nice segue; i think it's been several minutes now of thinking i don't remember this part of the heron oblivion, haha
	♥ 11:23am TDK60: Quaint reel to reel tape echo..
	11:24am Skitch: The disc pops n scratches are nice. Understand Fripp only used a Studer Revox for his loops. (drool) Spare no expense Bob.
	♥ 11:24am Passaic River Blues: I've been listening to the Eno-Fripp albums after reading Geeta Dayal's 33 1/3 book on "Another Green World" (she gets into the Fripp collaborations) and watching the Eno documentary Trouble mentioned several weeks ago. They all still hold up.
	11:25am Skitch: @Passaic - Agree
	11:27am luker duker: Misty day soundtrack
	♥ 11:27am Ike: Great show.
	♥ 11:28am Rich in Washington: This is a balm for my work addled soul. Thanks for playing this, Trouble!
	♥ 11:28am Rich in Washington: This song is da balm.
	11:29am Skitch: Baby's on Fire maybe????
	♥ 11:31am Trouble: no@krpprltrbf. it's not a very exciting story: i had friends who were dj's and i guested on a show. after that ken asked me to make a demo tape. i worked at a record store while i was in art school and dj'ed at the tap room at same art school. My husband is a musician who listens to tons of stuff. he hips me to sounds i had overlooked ( like this fripp/eno cut)
	♥ 11:32am Hubig Pie: Robert Fripp knows what god gave him his fingers for
	♥ 11:33am G: Saw Fripp do material like this live in an Ann Arbor bar down the street from where I lived, 1977 or 78. Just Fripp and a loop machine with a fade setting. I think he called himself something like a small, highly intelligent mobile unit, i.e., the opposite of bands like Zep and Yes that traveled with dozens of trailers of equipment.
	♥ 11:33am Handy Haversack: @G, which bar was that?
	♥ 11:34am Carmichael: Heya Trouble and troublesome peeps.
	♥ 11:35am βrian: Joe's Star Bar, maybe?
	♥ 11:38am steveo: wonderful piece of music this
	♥ 11:39am βrian: Or The Blind Pig?
	11:39am Skitch: Trouble you are a National Treasure.
	♥ 11:41am G: @Handy: So long ago! Blind Pig??
	11:41am Skitch: Of course I could be wrong.
	♥ 11:42am Handy Haversack: Blind Pig would make sense. I was working in bars in Ann Arbor, and a friend came to visit. I took him around, and at the end of the night he asked me, "Why are all the bars in this town named after hurt animals? It's like Robinson Jeffers opened them all!" @G: Understood! Thanks!
	11:42am Maria D: Cheers all around for Mystic Males!
	♥ 11:46am Listener Gregory: Missed most of the show due to snow removal but enjoying the last half hour.
	♥ 11:50am Yes: these girl called eddy tracks i've heard are nice
	♥ 11:51am Trouble: thanks for all the good vibes while sitting in today, winter kittens!
	11:52am Snoochienucci: thanks for the great show Trouble! Always a nice time
	♥ 11:53am Phillippe Bastille: Thanks trouble!
	♥ 11:53am Jeff Moore: Thanks as always!
	♥ 11:53am Handy Haversack: Look at the time. Look at it! Thanks, Trouble. Fantabulous show.
	11:54am Snoochienucci: @Handy, im looking and what i see is 6 more hours of work!!! lol
	♥ 11:55am Passaic River Blues: Thank you, Trouble!
	11:56am Micheal: Thank you, Trouble! Always a great way to spend a morning, and fantastic to learn about new music.
	11:56am John from Florham park: Thanks trouble for a wonderful show for a dreary day
	♥ 11:57am Yes: thanks all
	11:57am sass2grass: omg if this music represents the day, it’s gonna be a long one!
	♥ 11:58am thriftstoreleather: what great show, Trouble! thanks
	♥ 11:58am SSS: Missed the set...had...trouble. Nice to catch the end, though. Very lovely.
	♥ 11:59am steveo: i guess when i get that letter there will be hell to pay :)
	12:10pm JT: Play something from the new KOC! Ooops... free form radio imma shut up now

	♥ 9:31am Ken From Hyde Park: Yay, a Medal of Freedom for Lonnie Holley! Much more deserved than a random loud-mouthed goon who gets one these days.
	♥ 9:33am Trouble: right? i'm in that camp@ken from hyde park
	9:38am andrewhsini: morning trouble! the babe is digging the tunes! so are we! xo
	9:39am John from Florham park: @Trouble as much as I feel bad about rush having lung cancer I thought the medal was a little much
	♥ 9:42am Roberto: Wow, Lonnie's 70? The dude is ageless!
	♥ 9:42am Vivian: Did anyone notice that Rush was awarded the medal on Rosa Park's birthday? Such an insult to her memory.
	♥ 9:43am Trouble: it's all distraction peeps, don't pay attention and march onward! work for social justice and environmental rights in your communities!
	♥ 9:43am TDK60: Vivian. Rosa Parks interests me. Not that other person.
	♥ 9:44am Handy Haversack: Well said, Trouble. Nailed it in one!
	♥ 9:45am Roberto: Yes, tRump is Palpatine and we're all Jedis ;)
	♥ 9:45am Roberto: Except Palpatine is kinda cool in a way. tRump, not so much.
	9:46am John from Florham park: Thank you trouble
	♥ 9:46am ParUbi: Right, the Spectacle and the passivity it encourages only helps the status quo
	9:48am JakeGould: Trouble is right. But be careful of empowered bigots in the aftermath of this all. Nobody here really can affect the nonsense that is happening with Drumpf and his thugs. But the reality is I think everyone here has the power to be more aware of nonsense happening around them in the real world. Meaning, morons who see Drumpf’s non-impeachment as validation of behavior might just decide to be more racist, hateful and bigoted. That is not needed. That should be reacted to.
	♥ 9:48am CHUCK ROAST: Greetings from the Mid-Atlantic, y'all.
	9:49am John from Florham park: If it is not for this station and a couple of others I would go really bonkers
	♥ 9:51am Vivian: @well said JackGould.
	9:51am Wm from Denton: I'd like to thank this station for getting me through the dentist.
	9:52am JakeGould: Also, tons of undeserving things win awards all the time. For example, what film won best picture Oscar in 1980? “Ordinary People” a film most people didn’t care about by 1981. You know what film also came out in 1980 that is still popular, taught in film school and considered a classic? “Raging Bull.” It didn’t win an Oscar but it’s respect and well regarded? How did that happen!
	♥ 9:52am melinda: Enjoying the synth. Also, soft boiled eggies is the cutest band name.
	♥ 9:53am Hubig Pie: My dentist plays all the hits
	♥ 9:54am Yes: hey all
	♥ 9:54am melinda: I loved Ordinary People. But you are right Jake, the Oscars suck.
	9:54am Izzy: I can't overstate how much I love the band name"Soft Boiled Eggies", and not just because that's my go-to brekkie food
	9:57am peonie:
	9:57am John from Florham park: @Melinda morning Hey my fellow troublemakers I listen to a lot of international news like the The BBC and the CBC, radio Australia and RNZI, because frankly I cants stand cable news with its all trump all the time bullshit
	♥ 10:03am βrian: Entrez, les oiseaux !
	♥ 10:06am jdaAndAnoukFromKöln: wasnt that song used for any ad-spot?

	♥ 10:13am Adrian in London: Good afternoon,Trouble and listeners

	♥ 10:14am Trouble: marathon starts on feb 29 and runs through march 15, phone answerers welcome!
	♥ 10:15am Adrian in London: Hang on, I;ve just read that there's an exhibition of Lonnie Holley's artworks at Turner Contemporary in Margate, on the south coast of England. I can recommend good restaurants there if anyone's going…
	10:16am krpprltrbf: Very nice show and artwork today!
	10:16am will from Hampton: @Trouble email joe mcgasko? I’m not certain who to reach out to
	♥ 10:17am melinda: Godfather of plant music, haha! I love Plantasia.
	♥ 10:18am Trouble: yes@adrian, sounds like a great day out of the city
	♥ 10:18am Adrian in London: Actually more than just Lonnie turnercontemporary.org...
	♥ 10:18am Trouble: merci@krppr...
	♥ 10:18am CHUCK ROAST: Coneheads !

	♥ 10:20am Phillippe Bastille: God morning
	♥ 10:21am Handy Haversack: Happy holydays, Phillippe Bastille!
	10:22am Tootsiepop: Art Is Life: Don't Kill It
	♥ 10:22am melinda: I think the Soft Cell version of Where Did Our Love Go is the first one I heard, still my favorite.
	♥ 10:24am Jeff Moore: Is this Soft Cell jam meant to be a way to escape briefly from the dumpster fire we live in? It's kind of working for me.
	♥ 10:25am melinda: The dance troupe Pilobolus used this in a performance I saw on PBS a long time ago.
	♥ 10:26am Phillippe Bastille: Thanks Handy! I have 2 pay for each O I use so I try 2 keep them 2 a minimum
	10:26am Matthew: You are killing it Trouble great mix
	10:26am MG: Have never heard this version of To The End! So lovely. Thanks, Trouble.
	♥ 10:27am waters7: merci merci merci
	♥ 10:27am Trouble: isn't that my show every week@jeff moore?
	♥ 10:28am Handy Haversack: Ooo, that's rough tough stough, @Phillippe! Also: Trouble, this is a wonderful set.
	♥ 10:29am The Oscar: Been busy working, but today's show is especially killer so far. Never heard this Blur/Francoise!
	10:29am peonie: This is sick
	♥ 10:30am Phillippe Bastille: @Handy It appears u purchased many at a bulk rate
	♥ 10:31am Adrian in London: Who is singing Helen's Song? It sounds like Virginia Astley
	♥ 10:31am melinda: I'm watching a video about a tiny house in New Zealand with the sound off, this is good soundtrack.
	♥ 10:33am βrian: Crepescule is a weird word.
	♥ 10:34am Handy Haversack: @Phillippe: Discount for Oulipos!
	♥ 10:35am Trouble: yes it is virginia asteley with jean-paul goude as the dream makers @adrian
	10:36am prudy: lovely piano for a grey day, or any day for that matter...thanks Trouble
	♥ 10:39am Adrian in London: @Trouble Thanks. She's a poet now; occasionally does readings here in the UK
	♥ 10:39am βrian: A lovely bright day on the isthmus today. On the other hand, we have our first confirmed case of corona virus on campus.
	♥ 10:41am Trouble: gracias@ prudy, matthew, waters7, MG, peonie, et all. glad to be of musical service on this gray day
	10:41am Snoochienucci: theres something about this corona virus that seems very fishy to me. I think theres alot more going on in china than they lead on
	♥ 10:41am melinda: Good snow music as well.
	♥ 10:42am Jeff Moore: @Trouble: yes, it is, but today it seems like the music with more quiet contemplative space between the notes is leaving room for the garbage juice to seep back in. May next week and the week after leave me better able to let go into calm!
	♥ 10:42am Trouble: event celbratin the theremin this saturday: ambient.church...
	♥ 10:44am CHUCK ROAST: Will Lothar be there ?
	♥ 10:45am steveo: Good morning; quietly lurking about today & enjoying greatly; i'm looking at John McCowen, solo contrabass clarinet, for Saturday eve in Downtown Brooklyn
	10:45am John from Florham park: @Prudy one if those days I just want to crawl back into bed, but I have things to do @Snooch you think it was biological warfare that China was trying to do?
	10:45am krpprltrbf: Really splendid work. I am not often able to listen to this live (afternoon in NL) but it really adds to the experience. Goose bumps. Are there any episodes where you talk about how you became a DJ/got involved with WFMU, @trouble?
	♥ 10:46am TDK60: That Theremin event sounds fab! Are tix pricey? Chuck: I saw Lothar & the Hand People once; it's true.
	10:47am Skitch: Disappointed that the Met's Theremin is not on their audio tour. A major omittance. Not good. Looks good - sounds silent. Great show!!!!!!
	♥ 10:48am steveo: @skitch, i love to look at the Met's musical instrument collection but, yeah, i always think "does anyone ever get to play these?"
	♥ 10:50am Phillippe Bastille: @snoochi Aljazeera has been taking it seriously. Their reporting on the coronavirus has been their lead story for days.
	10:50am prudy: jfp: yes, yesterday's demonstration of government irrationality has rendered this great experiment just that. It's only going to get worse...days in bed seem a good option...
	10:51am Skitch: @steveo Clearly no. Not much. Same in Berlin. Their musical instrument museum has an Ondes Martenot and other cool pieces. Don' think about hearing them except on the third Sunday after Lent between 3:00 and 3:12. Sheesh.
	10:52am Snoochienucci: @jffp i mean i wouldnt be surprised. I saw a clip on the news last night of a supposed hosipital in china with bodyies lined up in bags on stretchers in parking lots. Un-verified of course, but still scary stuff
	10:52am Snoochienucci: @phillippe ill have to check it out, i feel like there are def more deaths in china than they have been reporting
	10:53am Snoochienucci: glad im on the east coast and far from the main land china lol
	10:53am Sketch: Brap brap brap
	♥ 10:53am Passaic River Blues: Cornell Campbell!
	♥ 10:53am TDK60: Steveo: I was in the Met instruments room once, looking at old guitars. An apparently-famous violinist came in and staff took out an old fiddle from the glass cases; he played it. He had museum staff around him, maybe to keep anyone back from falling into the violin.
	10:53am Sketch: Big Up Cornel Campbell today is his nephew Joseph's birthday
	♥ 10:54am Passaic River Blues: Oops! Sorry, Horace--heard the Gorgon and just assumed.
	10:56am Sketch: He's doing cornels tune tho.
	10:56am Sketch: Cornel is the brother of Jah Wise, legendary record collector. Many people know him as the man who paints the lion of judah on horsemouths motorcycle in the movie rockers
	10:58am Sketch: Jah wise has a son Joseph who is an amazing singer under the name Di Ras, and today is his earth strong. Big up the Campbell family!
	♥ 10:58am steveo: @TDK that sounds nice
	10:59am The Gutterman: I've NEVER been able to find the dang lyrics to that better collie. Any help? Lyric sites give lyrics to wrong song, some glitch or something'.
	11:00am The Butterman: its supposed to be the BUTTERMAN-stupid computer
	♥ 11:01am Hubig Pie: Claudine Longet ?
	11:02am John from Florham park: @Snooch sounded like something that Hoyt out of hand and might do a number on them
	♥ 11:02am Strandlund: Sharp shooter Claudine Longet?
	11:02am John from Florham park: @Gutterman try using Shazam they are great for lyrics
	11:03am Snoochienucci: i love me them birdies
	♥ 11:03am Hubig Pie: Hey Claudine , whats that in your upper drawer ? Since when do you pack a 44 ?
	11:04am Skitch: Love Claudine! Discovered her in 1967. Wow.
	♥ 11:07am The Oscar: One time a friend said, apropos of nothing, "I'm the ghost of Clara Rockmore-- wooOOOOooooOOOoooOOO!" I couldn't breathe for a good five minutes.
	♥ 11:08am Webhamster Henry: There'll be lots of Theremin activities this year!
	♥ 11:08am Handy Haversack: Year of the Theremin! That's a calendar I can get behind!
	11:09am Skitch: @Handy I second that sentiment.
	♥ 11:10am Roberto: Oh yeah that happened to me a couple of years ago, the conjunctivitis. It actually happened while I was on a plane. I wore my sunglasses for the entire flight.
	11:10am Skitch: More long sets please, Trouble.
	♥ 11:13am TDK60: Been playin' guitar/singing at open mikes recently, enduring the usually-maybe-almost-funny comics with my "heh-hehs".
	♥ 11:16am steveo: @tdk you should write a song made up of bad jokes so you fit in
	11:19am Skitch: OK here we go.
	11:21am morning: I love your show so much. I’ve been listening for years. I rarely get to listen real time so it’s a treat as I drive to work. ❤️ Sare - From portland Oregon
	♥ 11:21am the Master: Awesome journey ahead!
	11:22am Fletchernyc: Thank you so much for playing Fripp/Eno!!
	♥ 11:23am steveo: that was a very nice segue; i think it's been several minutes now of thinking i don't remember this part of the heron oblivion, haha
	♥ 11:23am TDK60: Quaint reel to reel tape echo..
	11:24am Skitch: The disc pops n scratches are nice. Understand Fripp only used a Studer Revox for his loops. (drool) Spare no expense Bob.
	♥ 11:24am Passaic River Blues: I've been listening to the Eno-Fripp albums after reading Geeta Dayal's 33 1/3 book on "Another Green World" (she gets into the Fripp collaborations) and watching the Eno documentary Trouble mentioned several weeks ago. They all still hold up.
	11:25am Skitch: @Passaic - Agree
	11:27am luker duker: Misty day soundtrack
	♥ 11:27am Ike: Great show.
	♥ 11:28am Rich in Washington: This is a balm for my work addled soul. Thanks for playing this, Trouble!
	♥ 11:28am Rich in Washington: This song is da balm.
	11:29am Skitch: Baby's on Fire maybe????
	♥ 11:31am Trouble: no@krpprltrbf. it's not a very exciting story: i had friends who were dj's and i guested on a show. after that ken asked me to make a demo tape. i worked at a record store while i was in art school and dj'ed at the tap room at same art school. My husband is a musician who listens to tons of stuff. he hips me to sounds i had overlooked ( like this fripp/eno cut)
	♥ 11:32am Hubig Pie: Robert Fripp knows what god gave him his fingers for
	♥ 11:33am G: Saw Fripp do material like this live in an Ann Arbor bar down the street from where I lived, 1977 or 78. Just Fripp and a loop machine with a fade setting. I think he called himself something like a small, highly intelligent mobile unit, i.e., the opposite of bands like Zep and Yes that traveled with dozens of trailers of equipment.
	♥ 11:33am Handy Haversack: @G, which bar was that?
	♥ 11:34am Carmichael: Heya Trouble and troublesome peeps.
	♥ 11:35am βrian: Joe's Star Bar, maybe?
	♥ 11:38am steveo: wonderful piece of music this
	♥ 11:39am βrian: Or The Blind Pig?
	11:39am Skitch: Trouble you are a National Treasure.
	♥ 11:41am G: @Handy: So long ago! Blind Pig??
	11:41am Skitch: Of course I could be wrong.
	♥ 11:42am Handy Haversack: Blind Pig would make sense. I was working in bars in Ann Arbor, and a friend came to visit. I took him around, and at the end of the night he asked me, "Why are all the bars in this town named after hurt animals? It's like Robinson Jeffers opened them all!" @G: Understood! Thanks!
	11:42am Maria D: Cheers all around for Mystic Males!
	♥ 11:46am Listener Gregory: Missed most of the show due to snow removal but enjoying the last half hour.
	♥ 11:50am Yes: these girl called eddy tracks i've heard are nice
	♥ 11:51am Trouble: thanks for all the good vibes while sitting in today, winter kittens!
	11:52am Snoochienucci: thanks for the great show Trouble! Always a nice time
	♥ 11:53am Phillippe Bastille: Thanks trouble!
	♥ 11:53am Jeff Moore: Thanks as always!
	♥ 11:53am Handy Haversack: Look at the time. Look at it! Thanks, Trouble. Fantabulous show.
	11:54am Snoochienucci: @Handy, im looking and what i see is 6 more hours of work!!! lol
	♥ 11:55am Passaic River Blues: Thank you, Trouble!
	11:56am Micheal: Thank you, Trouble! Always a great way to spend a morning, and fantastic to learn about new music.
	11:56am John from Florham park: Thanks trouble for a wonderful show for a dreary day
	♥ 11:57am Yes: thanks all
	11:57am sass2grass: omg if this music represents the day, it’s gonna be a long one!
	♥ 11:58am thriftstoreleather: what great show, Trouble! thanks
	♥ 11:58am SSS: Missed the set...had...trouble. Nice to catch the end, though. Very lovely.
	♥ 11:59am steveo: i guess when i get that letter there will be hell to pay :)
	12:10pm JT: Play something from the new KOC! Ooops... free form radio imma shut up now
