	🎸 ♥ 3:26pm Barney Grubbs: aqua boogie long island
	3:26pm Barbie: I heard Sun Ra last night at Town Hall, they were great.
	♥ 3:26pm zzz: agree! arkestra led by marshall allen doing the live soundtrack to a screening space is the place, at the winter jazz fest a few years ago was incredible! arent they planning on doing this again some time?
	🎸 ♥ 3:27pm Barney Grubbs: long island has marathon-crushing place names
	🎸 ♥ 3:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: If Eubie Blake is still playing, then him.
	3:28pm modern blaze: thanks!
	♥ 3:29pm tim from champaign (now washington): The giving up buying coffee at work method really works in order to up your monthly pledge amount.
	♥ 3:29pm Aquebogue: I hired the Arkestra to play my wedding. The log drum was terrific and Billy Bang came too! Marshall is a treasure.
	♥ 3:30pm Aquebogue: Highly recommend it to anyone.
	3:31pm $mall ¢hange: sup everyone cheers cheers. sun ra going in 3min or so
	3:31pm Cocoa: Sea anenomes, wfmu, listeners... I smell a T-shirt idea....
	3:33pm Cocoa: I saw the Arkestra (and I think Sun Ra....?) play at a super-large pool outside in Queens one summer back in the late 80's. It was really fun
	3:34pm McGroovey: I totally love horse solos. I can't resist playing air horse!
	3:35pm ?: Small ch-ch-change!
	🎸 ♥ 3:35pm Barney Grubbs: Thanks Fabio & small change--I will enjoy it.
	🎸 ♥ 3:36pm Handy Haversack: Nice, @Barney!
	3:38pm Cocoa: Here's a genre name...: white boy funk----I do not like it
	🎸 ♥ 3:38pm The Oscar: If you haven't heard it, I highly recommend National Lampoon's "Art Rock Suite." It's Christopher Guest parodying every prog/AOR artist he can think of, circa 1974, and it's phenomenal.
	3:39pm Cocoa: Satyayt Ray--one of my fave directors and fave movies (the Apu Trilogy)
	♥ 3:39pm tim from champaign (now washington): I really need to see these.
	3:40pm P-90: The cringey term Art Rock was around for a few years, while people were still trying to figure out what to call that certain broad category of bands. Ultimately “Prog” won out.
	3:40pm Cocoa: SatyajIt Ray, I should say
	3:40pm morphe': I recommend the Ray films.... Abu steals a mango and then..... Re: Prog - according to BBC - Genesis is going on tour - not recommended just an FYI
	3:41pm Cocoa: Small Change--I love you. You funny.
	3:41pm P-90: Genesis only announced for England (at least now)
	3:43pm P-90: Call it the “Art Phone Room”
	🎸 ♥ 3:43pm chresti: Collections Department
	3:43pm Cocoa: Volunteer room: The amazon mailroom of WFMU
	🎸 ♥ 3:45pm Bas NL: I just watched Tarkovsky's 'Solaris' again..
	3:45pm P-90: “Profundo Rosso “ (1975)
	3:47pm morphe': FYI: the fmu Volunteers, in my phone times - were known as Phone Slaves....
	🎸 ♥ 3:48pm Handy Haversack: Was "Licornes" from the Progemium also?
	3:49pm McGroovey: The term Art Rock also got applied to some of the arty new wavers (Talking Heads, Pere Ubu, Wire, ...). It never really meant anything stylistic; just that the band wasn't just doing 3-chord songs about sex, and the songwriter might be a painter in his/her spare time.
	♥ 3:50pm Aquebogue: Anyone listen to Pied Nu?
	♥ 3:52pm Aquebogue: @Bas NL - masterpiece. Just watched Stalker again.
	🎸 ♥ 3:53pm chresti: Art damage
	🎸 ♥ 3:54pm Handy Haversack: Is he?
	♥ 3:54pm tim from champaign (now washington): Are Mike and the Mechanics considered art rock?
	3:56pm Cocoa: Laurie Anderson=art rocker?
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Records DO NOT "drop." "Dropping" is something that happens behind creatures at a petting-zoo. You may quote me.
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Also: hello.
	3:58pm P-90: McGroovey: yes! “Art Rock”, which had definitely floated around in the seventies for what’s now just called “Prog,” was briefly floated again in the eighties for (some of) what became “New Wave.”
	3:58pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: He played GOBLIN, for God's sake. Who does that? Drop some more of those golden vinyls.
	3:58pm Cocoa: People keep trying to make "the record industry" and rock and roll "cool" and "dangerous" --maybe record company peeps came up with that term? (records dropping)
	🎸 ♥ 3:58pm Bas NL: Isn't it 'dropping a tab'? (Prog in mind)
	3:59pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Cocoa, you nailed it. A f#cking marketing term, one-hundred percent.
	3:59pm Cocoa: dropping the needle on the record, baby?
	🎸 ♥ 4:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Drop is what the stock market does.
	🎸 ♥ 4:01pm chresti: Many bands in the late 70s-early eighties went to art school
	4:02pm P-90: “...like Herb Alpert on steroids...”
	🎸 ♥ 4:02pm The Oscar: Oh hell yeah! Love me some Tarkovsky!
	🎸 ♥ 4:03pm Handy Haversack: Andre Rubleyev is great! Saw it at Film Forum ... a long time ago. There's a bell! And witches(?)! Way to go, @The Oscar!
	♥ 4:03pm Aquebogue: At our art school in the midwest Sun Ra was king. Stockhausen, Ligeti, Amirkhanian, Cage, Carl Stone!! Love Carl.
	♥ 4:06pm Aquebogue: Thanks Fabio!!
	4:06pm Cocoa: Will there be a happy ending?
	4:07pm Cocoa: Good slogan for a wfmu show: "The show with a happy ending"
	4:08pm morphe': "Long time listener - first time caller - love the show" is an Andy Breckman phrase ... that has made it into fmu argot..
	🎸 ♥ 4:09pm chresti: Fabio the model and performer, came to mind when I first tuned in a few years ago
	🎸 ♥ 4:10pm KenW: BROTHER, I'm not able to listen live today, BUT, I've just pledged to STF! Thank You Thank You THANK YOU for all of the beautiful weirdness that you consistently bring to these airwaves, it's forever appreciated!
	4:10pm morphe': Cocoa: When listening to Clay - W&B - if I must go shopping (=food) I always say/wrte : "I'll be back for the happy ending... Rated G for all audiences.."
	4:11pm Cocoa: @KenW: you talkin' to me?
	♥ 4:11pm northguineahills: Olive is my hero!
	4:12pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow grouchy listeners
	4:12pm Cocoa: @morphe'---ha ha!
	4:14pm Cocoa: I love hearing human utterances backwards. I wanna hear other species!
	🎸 ♥ 4:14pm Handy Haversack: Hey, John from FP. Did you catch your dedication on Julie's show?
	4:15pm Fabio: @KenW: THANK YOU KEN!!!
	♥ 4:17pm tim from champaign (now washington): Aquebogue - What was your midwest school?
	4:17pm John from Florham park: @handy no I missed it what happened?
	🎸 ♥ 4:18pm Handy Haversack: @John: Dedicated my pledge to you for telling me about that show in the first place. Thanks!
	4:20pm John from Florham park: @Handy your welcome too bad I missed it will catch the archives later
	🎸 ♥ 4:21pm Handy Haversack: Sure thing! After the set where she played Marianne Faithfull.
	4:21pm Cocoa: love this
	🎸 ♥ 4:22pm Carmichael: Faust, baby. Heya Fabs and $mall ₵hange.
	♥ 4:23pm Brian in UK: Hello Fabio & Small Change. Guess it has been mentioned that Genesis are to tour the UK. NOT the early Seventies variety though.
	♥ 4:24pm Brian in UK: Ever been to Portmeirion?
	4:24pm John from Florham park: Thanks handy bow I know where to look
	♥ 4:25pm tim from champaign (now washington): Does the cough button ensure that listeners won't get coronavirus from a WFMU DJ?
	4:25pm P-90: “xxxxRESIGNEDxxxx”
	♥ 4:28pm Brian in UK: You'll wonder where the yellow went, when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent.
	🎸 ♥ 4:31pm Carmichael: From the Commitments: - I used to play in a band. - What did they do? - Depeche Mode. Aztec Camera. - Fckin' art-school stuff. - The Beatles went to art school. - So did Roxy Music, and you liked them. It's who it's aimed at. Wankers with funny haircuts and rich dads with fck-all to do.
	♥ 4:32pm Brian in UK: All we had over here was John Peel. He travelled a parallel path to FMU.
	♥ 4:33pm Brian in UK: @Carmichael. Flock of Seagulls?
	🎸 ♥ 4:33pm Carmichael: Flock of Budgies.
	🎸 ♥ 4:33pm Handy Haversack: "I still like Flock o' Budgies."
	♥ 4:33pm tim from champaign (now washington): I 100% agree with what Fabio and Small Change are talking about. Whenever I listen to public radio, college radio or community radio, it's so bad. It's slick, uninteresting and feels like commercial radio little league.
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm Carmichael: Better than yours, bleedin' Cosmic Lineup.
	4:35pm John from Florham park: @Handy I am ticked Pink thanks again dude
	♥ 4:37pm steveo: Prague is a 6-letter word!
	🎸 ♥ 4:37pm Handy Haversack: No, John from FP -- thank YOU! OK, failures. Heading out. Will try to catch the end from an Even Longer Island. L8r, sk8rs!
	4:38pm John from Florham park: @Handy safe travels home
	♥ 4:38pm Marcel M: Fabio!
	♥ 4:40pm Brian in UK: Premiata Forneria Marconi from Italy were on ELP's label. Just saying.
	♥ 4:41pm melinda: I learned about library music from FMU.
	♥ 4:41pm steveo: RIP, Joyce Gordon, the voice in the ubiquitous recording that advised telephone callers in the 1980s and ’90s that “the number you have reached is no longer in service.”
	♥ 4:43pm Mr. Pumpy: Hello Fabio, Small Change and the Failure Crew! I'll try and be better behaved than last week so Fabio doesn't have to stop the car and scold us again. Great tunessssss!!!
	4:43pm Cocoa: BoUnCy bass
	🎸 ♥ 4:44pm dale: herro dere. what did i miss?
	4:45pm James Roland: Hoping I win this - please make it so!
	4:46pm John from Florham park: @Mr pumpy yeah right:)
	♥ 4:50pm tim from champaign (now washington): Go to Portland, Maine, Fabio. That place is great!
	♥ 4:53pm Mr. Pumpy: @John...ha! I mean it this time...
	🎸 ♥ 4:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: I'm mentally adding the $mall ¢hange sound effects to the bed music.
	♥ 4:56pm Mr. Pumpy: La Jetée is such an amazing film!
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm ifeelfatnsassy: Superior Viaduct are the folks that took over Aquarius Records out in SFO. Good people, but damn I miss Aquarius.
	4:57pm ignatatus666: Any film buffs on here? Without research what year was the first Peter Pan released?
	4:57pm John from Florham park: Ok me pumpy I believe you
	4:58pm ignatatus666: Good Morning everyone
	4:58pm miss g: Just watched "12 Monkeys" and then "La Jetée!" Then read James Tiptree, Jr. "The Last Flight of Doctor Ain!" So great to hear this
	4:59pm John from Florham park: Hi iggy and no I don’t know when the first Peter Pan movie was
	♥ 5:00pm Mr. Pumpy: miss g...just now?!
	🎸 ♥ 5:00pm dale: this is pretty trippy.
	♥ 5:00pm steveo: i loved 12 monkeys, never saw la jetee, but it seems to be on youtubE!
	5:02pm Sally: Wow, La Jetee is such a great film and I'd never really noticed the soundtrack is great too! It's great to hear it by itself. Thanks for playing...
	♥ 5:03pm Mr. Pumpy: @steveo...watch it if you can. Just listen to this! Gilliam dug on it so much he created 12 Monkeys...so there's that.
	5:03pm miss g: Mr. Pumpy I watched them in the last month and so was surprised at the coincidence. Prompted by reading the Tiptree story (which is not credited as an influence.)
	♥ 5:04pm Mr. Pumpy: Fabio...it really does bring it to mind. I can smell textures and everything. Seriously, it's been a while and that track did bring it back home.
	♥ 5:04pm Mr. Pumpy: @miss g...I see. Very nice.
	5:05pm ignatatus666: @JFFP Silent film black and tan? 1924
	5:05pm miss g: The Tiptree story is available online at Lightspeed Magazine.
	5:06pm John from Florham park: Guys as a rule I try to stay away from end of the world type movies, too damn depressing
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: I wonder how Ye Olde Hampton is doing?
	♥ 5:06pm Mr. Pumpy: miss g...I wonder if that is going on now! Although, there is little need for a person to go around spreading a virus these days with the amount of travel that occurs on its own. I guess it wouldn't hurt though!
	♥ 5:06pm steveo: totally gonna watch it, mr. p
	🎸 ♥ 5:07pm Barney Grubbs: @ifeelfatnsassy: I'm still in mourning about Aquarius
	5:07pm John from Florham park: @iggy cool
	♥ 5:07pm Mr. Pumpy: @John...stay away from the news then. I'm thinking you do.
	♥ 5:07pm steveo: (i had a cat named mr. p. but the p was for pickles; i didn't name her)
	♥ 5:08pm Mr. Pumpy: A female cat named Mr. Pickles? I like it.
	5:08pm miss g: Yeah, only when I was well into "12 Monkeys" did I think to myself "hey this might not be such an inspiring film at this moment" but, anyway, that's how it happened.
	♥ 5:09pm steveo: i liked the person who named her so much, i asked her to marry me
	♥ 5:09pm Bobby: WFMU is my favorite restaurant
	♥ 5:09pm steveo: (the person, not the cat)
	5:09pm John from Florham park: @Mr pumpy I listen to the BBC and the CBC, I stay away from cable news
	5:09pm miss g: "La Jetée" is timeless however and an LP from Superior Viaduct sounds amazing.
	♥ 5:10pm Mr. Pumpy: @steveo...good for you!
	♥ 5:11pm Mr. Pumpy: @John...I'm with you.
	5:12pm John from Florham park: @Mr pumpy or I will listen to abc from Australia and RNZI from New Zealand they don’t talk about you know who all the time
	🎸 ♥ 5:12pm dale: this is fab's premium? cause i'm getting his. and i like this.
	🎸 ♥ 5:13pm Mike da Scag: only one moving shot. Oof. The real deal, that film.
	♥ 5:14pm Mr. Pumpy: @John...the US news cycle is demented and tiring. I don't know how many do it!
	5:16pm Dano312: Good pick on the soundtrack. La Jetee happens to be MY fave film too!
	5:17pm John from Florham park: @Me pumpy I don’t watch cable news anymore, I will k ok is ten to local news like WCBS or WINS
	🎸 ♥ 5:17pm ParUbi: Hey everyone
	5:19pm Adam West Coaster: @Barney Grubbs, I’m right there with ya! I miss Andee, Allan and Cup!
	5:19pm John from Florham park: @Parubi howdy
	🎸 ♥ 5:20pm Rev. Turnip Druid: TAKE BACK REALITY.
	5:21pm geezerettw: Howdy all. Been thinking about Venezuela and hoping that's not our future. The sources of stress are stacking up faster than pancakes on a plate.
	🎸 ♥ 5:22pm dale: florida is near warwick - home of polka king jimmy sturr. the black dirt region.
	5:22pm John from Florham park: @fabio it happened after ginas show on Monday night
	🎸 ♥ 5:23pm Handy Haversack: Well, I made it home without apocalypse, so that's something. I thought that Aphrodite's Child sounded pretty killer! Hey, Mr. Pumpy!
	♥ 5:23pm Mr. Pumpy: Handy...how does it hangeth?
	🎸 ♥ 5:24pm dale: toronto's harmonium is my fave. maneige has some weird prog jazz fabio would probably like. look for 'libre service'
	🎸 ♥ 5:24pm Handy Haversack: Not too bad. Heading out for some punk rock in a couple hours. Just gotta recharge!
	🎸 ♥ 5:25pm Barney Grubbs: @Adam, their new releases list kept me going through years of living far away from record stores. (Andee's band Common Eider, King Eider has put out some pleasantly threatening releases over the last few years.)
	5:27pm Cocoa: they don't have balls?
	5:29pm John from Florham park: @Handy enjoy your punk
	5:29pm Brendan: You should definitely hit the bleep button when saying balls. That is to say make sure you cut your balls. Otherwise the FCC will cut your balls off. Either way suture self
	♥ 5:30pm Mr. Pumpy: Enjoy the punk, punk. Is it punk...or art rock? Seems like it might only be a chord or twp of difference!
	🎸 ♥ 5:30pm dale: ha ha! yoko freaked my cat squeakers out.
	♥ 5:31pm Mr. Pumpy: @Brendan...or cauterize.
	5:31pm geezerettw: Love this! They're playing together like kids. Sweet & funny.
	🎸 ♥ 5:33pm mrdonutsu: In the context of when I share my music with "conventional" musicians, and get - quite frequently - a response of complete silence, it always is such a solace to hear stuff like this on the WFMU. Yeah, John Fucking Lennon busted these moves, so just get over yourself Mr. Guitar Tabs.
	♥ 5:33pm Mr. Pumpy: Yeah...take that Mr. GT!
	5:41pm Jersey Cowboy: That some good $#!T thanks fabio
	5:41pm Buddha of Suburbia: Hi gang. I'm volunteering tomorrow morning at FMU. Please call in. I'm working the phones.
	5:41pm miss g: Danced to this at Mudd/Hurrah/Limelight so many times! ($mall ¢hange you once played this with an overdub/slowed down, did you do that?)
	5:42pm Buddha of Suburbia: I'm talking to u too, DALE!
	5:43pm Buddha of Suburbia: Miss G i used to go to Limelight in the early 90s. My friend John was a promoter and cage dancer.
	🎸 ♥ 5:43pm dale: oh - hey boodsy.
	5:43pm Adam West Coaster: @ Barney, YESSSS! I wish he was hooked up with WFMU, but do you ever listen to Andee’s show on Gimme Metal? It’s great!
	🎸 ♥ 5:44pm dale: danceteria was my fancy. then aztec lounge or pyramid.
	5:44pm Buddha of Suburbia: Hi ya Dulio Iglesias!
	🎸 ♥ 5:45pm Handy Haversack: This is great.
	5:45pm Buddha of Suburbia: There was also the Copa and Sound Factory
	5:47pm John from Florham park: Hey boods this is a surprise seeing you in the afternoon on the accu board
	5:48pm miss g: Great bands at Hurrah (Tuxedomoon as well!) Howl just showed Merrill Aldighieri's "V.J. Diaries" with many clips from bands.
	🎸 ♥ 5:48pm listener 126464: kinda remember dB's/Necessaries with Chris Spedding... Wreckless Eric at Hurrah
	♥ 5:49pm ultradamno: Electro + Convulsive...I can follow it.
	🎸 ♥ 5:51pm dale: small change sounds like billy crystal doing sammy davis jr.
	🎸 ♥ 5:51pm Barney Grubbs: @Adam: is that Battleflutes & Backwards Skulls? I keep meaning to listen but haven’t yet
	5:51pm John from Florham park: @Dale:)
	5:51pm Buddha of Suburbia: I am going see LCBD JFFP. Crashing at her house tonight and we're driving in tomorrow
	♥ 5:51pm Mr. Pumpy: @dale...I catch your drift, baby
	5:52pm Adam West Coaster: @Barney, indeed it is!
	5:52pm MelindafromAustin: Will there be another Fabio + Clay P. duo dynamo?
	5:52pm miss g: BofS wow, Limelight was so crazy in the early 90s. You must have had an amazing time!
	🎸 ♥ 5:52pm Handy Haversack: I will be calling in tomorrow when Glistentown is in full effect, Boodz!
	5:53pm MelindafromAustin: Gotta go - I’ve got instagram selfie stuff to do ....
	🎸 ♥ 5:53pm Carmichael: Next week, Melinda.
	5:54pm MelindafromAustin: YAASSS
	5:55pm MelindafromAustin: Thanks Carmichael
	5:55pm Buddha of Suburbia: Miss G Especially Disco 2000 on Wednesdays with naked night
	♥ 5:57pm tim from champaign (now washington): I'm pro Unfinished Music. And Yoko's Plastic Ono Band which sounds like PiL and Neu before both bands existed.
	🎸 ♥ 5:57pm Handy Haversack: Great show, Fabio and $mall ¢hange. Marathoned!
	5:58pm miss g: Great show and the DJ Premium "Prog... Is Not a Four Letter Word" sounds fab.

	🎸 ♥ 3:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: If Eubie Blake is still playing, then him.
	3:28pm modern blaze: thanks!
	♥ 3:29pm tim from champaign (now washington): The giving up buying coffee at work method really works in order to up your monthly pledge amount.
	♥ 3:29pm Aquebogue: I hired the Arkestra to play my wedding. The log drum was terrific and Billy Bang came too! Marshall is a treasure.
	♥ 3:30pm Aquebogue: Highly recommend it to anyone.
	3:31pm $mall ¢hange: sup everyone cheers cheers. sun ra going in 3min or so
	3:31pm Cocoa: Sea anenomes, wfmu, listeners... I smell a T-shirt idea....
	3:33pm Cocoa: I saw the Arkestra (and I think Sun Ra....?) play at a super-large pool outside in Queens one summer back in the late 80's. It was really fun
	3:34pm McGroovey: I totally love horse solos. I can't resist playing air horse!
	3:35pm ?: Small ch-ch-change!
	🎸 ♥ 3:35pm Barney Grubbs: Thanks Fabio & small change--I will enjoy it.
	🎸 ♥ 3:36pm Handy Haversack: Nice, @Barney!
	3:38pm Cocoa: Here's a genre name...: white boy funk----I do not like it
	🎸 ♥ 3:38pm The Oscar: If you haven't heard it, I highly recommend National Lampoon's "Art Rock Suite." It's Christopher Guest parodying every prog/AOR artist he can think of, circa 1974, and it's phenomenal.
	3:39pm Cocoa: Satyayt Ray--one of my fave directors and fave movies (the Apu Trilogy)
	♥ 3:39pm tim from champaign (now washington): I really need to see these.
	3:40pm P-90: The cringey term Art Rock was around for a few years, while people were still trying to figure out what to call that certain broad category of bands. Ultimately “Prog” won out.
	3:40pm Cocoa: SatyajIt Ray, I should say
	3:40pm morphe': I recommend the Ray films.... Abu steals a mango and then..... Re: Prog - according to BBC - Genesis is going on tour - not recommended just an FYI
	3:41pm Cocoa: Small Change--I love you. You funny.
	3:41pm P-90: Genesis only announced for England (at least now)
	3:43pm P-90: Call it the “Art Phone Room”
	🎸 ♥ 3:43pm chresti: Collections Department
	3:43pm Cocoa: Volunteer room: The amazon mailroom of WFMU
	🎸 ♥ 3:45pm Bas NL: I just watched Tarkovsky's 'Solaris' again..
	3:45pm P-90: “Profundo Rosso “ (1975)
	3:47pm morphe': FYI: the fmu Volunteers, in my phone times - were known as Phone Slaves....
	🎸 ♥ 3:48pm Handy Haversack: Was "Licornes" from the Progemium also?
	3:49pm McGroovey: The term Art Rock also got applied to some of the arty new wavers (Talking Heads, Pere Ubu, Wire, ...). It never really meant anything stylistic; just that the band wasn't just doing 3-chord songs about sex, and the songwriter might be a painter in his/her spare time.
	♥ 3:50pm Aquebogue: Anyone listen to Pied Nu?
	♥ 3:52pm Aquebogue: @Bas NL - masterpiece. Just watched Stalker again.
	🎸 ♥ 3:53pm chresti: Art damage
	🎸 ♥ 3:54pm Handy Haversack: Is he?
	♥ 3:54pm tim from champaign (now washington): Are Mike and the Mechanics considered art rock?
	3:56pm Cocoa: Laurie Anderson=art rocker?
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Records DO NOT "drop." "Dropping" is something that happens behind creatures at a petting-zoo. You may quote me.
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Also: hello.
	3:58pm P-90: McGroovey: yes! “Art Rock”, which had definitely floated around in the seventies for what’s now just called “Prog,” was briefly floated again in the eighties for (some of) what became “New Wave.”
	3:58pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: He played GOBLIN, for God's sake. Who does that? Drop some more of those golden vinyls.
	3:58pm Cocoa: People keep trying to make "the record industry" and rock and roll "cool" and "dangerous" --maybe record company peeps came up with that term? (records dropping)
	🎸 ♥ 3:58pm Bas NL: Isn't it 'dropping a tab'? (Prog in mind)
	3:59pm Itzall ClearD'me Nåu: Cocoa, you nailed it. A f#cking marketing term, one-hundred percent.
	3:59pm Cocoa: dropping the needle on the record, baby?
	🎸 ♥ 4:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Drop is what the stock market does.
	🎸 ♥ 4:01pm chresti: Many bands in the late 70s-early eighties went to art school
	4:02pm P-90: “...like Herb Alpert on steroids...”
	🎸 ♥ 4:02pm The Oscar: Oh hell yeah! Love me some Tarkovsky!
	🎸 ♥ 4:03pm Handy Haversack: Andre Rubleyev is great! Saw it at Film Forum ... a long time ago. There's a bell! And witches(?)! Way to go, @The Oscar!
	♥ 4:03pm Aquebogue: At our art school in the midwest Sun Ra was king. Stockhausen, Ligeti, Amirkhanian, Cage, Carl Stone!! Love Carl.
	♥ 4:06pm Aquebogue: Thanks Fabio!!
	4:06pm Cocoa: Will there be a happy ending?
	4:07pm Cocoa: Good slogan for a wfmu show: "The show with a happy ending"
	4:08pm morphe': "Long time listener - first time caller - love the show" is an Andy Breckman phrase ... that has made it into fmu argot..
	🎸 ♥ 4:09pm chresti: Fabio the model and performer, came to mind when I first tuned in a few years ago
	🎸 ♥ 4:10pm KenW: BROTHER, I'm not able to listen live today, BUT, I've just pledged to STF! Thank You Thank You THANK YOU for all of the beautiful weirdness that you consistently bring to these airwaves, it's forever appreciated!
	4:10pm morphe': Cocoa: When listening to Clay - W&B - if I must go shopping (=food) I always say/wrte : "I'll be back for the happy ending... Rated G for all audiences.."
	4:11pm Cocoa: @KenW: you talkin' to me?
	♥ 4:11pm northguineahills: Olive is my hero!
	4:12pm John from Florham park: Hello fellow grouchy listeners
	4:12pm Cocoa: @morphe'---ha ha!
	4:14pm Cocoa: I love hearing human utterances backwards. I wanna hear other species!
	🎸 ♥ 4:14pm Handy Haversack: Hey, John from FP. Did you catch your dedication on Julie's show?
	4:15pm Fabio: @KenW: THANK YOU KEN!!!
	♥ 4:17pm tim from champaign (now washington): Aquebogue - What was your midwest school?
	4:17pm John from Florham park: @handy no I missed it what happened?
	🎸 ♥ 4:18pm Handy Haversack: @John: Dedicated my pledge to you for telling me about that show in the first place. Thanks!
	4:20pm John from Florham park: @Handy your welcome too bad I missed it will catch the archives later
	🎸 ♥ 4:21pm Handy Haversack: Sure thing! After the set where she played Marianne Faithfull.
	4:21pm Cocoa: love this
	🎸 ♥ 4:22pm Carmichael: Faust, baby. Heya Fabs and $mall ₵hange.
	♥ 4:23pm Brian in UK: Hello Fabio & Small Change. Guess it has been mentioned that Genesis are to tour the UK. NOT the early Seventies variety though.
	♥ 4:24pm Brian in UK: Ever been to Portmeirion?
	4:24pm John from Florham park: Thanks handy bow I know where to look
	♥ 4:25pm tim from champaign (now washington): Does the cough button ensure that listeners won't get coronavirus from a WFMU DJ?
	4:25pm P-90: “xxxxRESIGNEDxxxx”
	♥ 4:28pm Brian in UK: You'll wonder where the yellow went, when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent.
	🎸 ♥ 4:31pm Carmichael: From the Commitments: - I used to play in a band. - What did they do? - Depeche Mode. Aztec Camera. - Fckin' art-school stuff. - The Beatles went to art school. - So did Roxy Music, and you liked them. It's who it's aimed at. Wankers with funny haircuts and rich dads with fck-all to do.
	♥ 4:32pm Brian in UK: All we had over here was John Peel. He travelled a parallel path to FMU.
	♥ 4:33pm Brian in UK: @Carmichael. Flock of Seagulls?
	🎸 ♥ 4:33pm Carmichael: Flock of Budgies.
	🎸 ♥ 4:33pm Handy Haversack: "I still like Flock o' Budgies."
	♥ 4:33pm tim from champaign (now washington): I 100% agree with what Fabio and Small Change are talking about. Whenever I listen to public radio, college radio or community radio, it's so bad. It's slick, uninteresting and feels like commercial radio little league.
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm Carmichael: Better than yours, bleedin' Cosmic Lineup.
	4:35pm John from Florham park: @Handy I am ticked Pink thanks again dude
	♥ 4:37pm steveo: Prague is a 6-letter word!
	🎸 ♥ 4:37pm Handy Haversack: No, John from FP -- thank YOU! OK, failures. Heading out. Will try to catch the end from an Even Longer Island. L8r, sk8rs!
	4:38pm John from Florham park: @Handy safe travels home
	♥ 4:38pm Marcel M: Fabio!
	♥ 4:40pm Brian in UK: Premiata Forneria Marconi from Italy were on ELP's label. Just saying.
	♥ 4:41pm melinda: I learned about library music from FMU.
	♥ 4:41pm steveo: RIP, Joyce Gordon, the voice in the ubiquitous recording that advised telephone callers in the 1980s and ’90s that “the number you have reached is no longer in service.”
	♥ 4:43pm Mr. Pumpy: Hello Fabio, Small Change and the Failure Crew! I'll try and be better behaved than last week so Fabio doesn't have to stop the car and scold us again. Great tunessssss!!!
	4:43pm Cocoa: BoUnCy bass
	🎸 ♥ 4:44pm dale: herro dere. what did i miss?
	4:45pm James Roland: Hoping I win this - please make it so!
	4:46pm John from Florham park: @Mr pumpy yeah right:)
	♥ 4:50pm tim from champaign (now washington): Go to Portland, Maine, Fabio. That place is great!
	♥ 4:53pm Mr. Pumpy: @John...ha! I mean it this time...
	🎸 ♥ 4:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: I'm mentally adding the $mall ¢hange sound effects to the bed music.
	♥ 4:56pm Mr. Pumpy: La Jetée is such an amazing film!
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm ifeelfatnsassy: Superior Viaduct are the folks that took over Aquarius Records out in SFO. Good people, but damn I miss Aquarius.
	4:57pm ignatatus666: Any film buffs on here? Without research what year was the first Peter Pan released?
	4:57pm John from Florham park: Ok me pumpy I believe you
	4:58pm ignatatus666: Good Morning everyone
	4:58pm miss g: Just watched "12 Monkeys" and then "La Jetée!" Then read James Tiptree, Jr. "The Last Flight of Doctor Ain!" So great to hear this
	4:59pm John from Florham park: Hi iggy and no I don’t know when the first Peter Pan movie was
	♥ 5:00pm Mr. Pumpy: miss g...just now?!
	🎸 ♥ 5:00pm dale: this is pretty trippy.
	♥ 5:00pm steveo: i loved 12 monkeys, never saw la jetee, but it seems to be on youtubE!
	5:02pm Sally: Wow, La Jetee is such a great film and I'd never really noticed the soundtrack is great too! It's great to hear it by itself. Thanks for playing...
	♥ 5:03pm Mr. Pumpy: @steveo...watch it if you can. Just listen to this! Gilliam dug on it so much he created 12 Monkeys...so there's that.
	5:03pm miss g: Mr. Pumpy I watched them in the last month and so was surprised at the coincidence. Prompted by reading the Tiptree story (which is not credited as an influence.)
	♥ 5:04pm Mr. Pumpy: Fabio...it really does bring it to mind. I can smell textures and everything. Seriously, it's been a while and that track did bring it back home.
	♥ 5:04pm Mr. Pumpy: @miss g...I see. Very nice.
	5:05pm ignatatus666: @JFFP Silent film black and tan? 1924
	5:05pm miss g: The Tiptree story is available online at Lightspeed Magazine.
	5:06pm John from Florham park: Guys as a rule I try to stay away from end of the world type movies, too damn depressing
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: I wonder how Ye Olde Hampton is doing?
	♥ 5:06pm Mr. Pumpy: miss g...I wonder if that is going on now! Although, there is little need for a person to go around spreading a virus these days with the amount of travel that occurs on its own. I guess it wouldn't hurt though!
	♥ 5:06pm steveo: totally gonna watch it, mr. p
	🎸 ♥ 5:07pm Barney Grubbs: @ifeelfatnsassy: I'm still in mourning about Aquarius
	5:07pm John from Florham park: @iggy cool
	♥ 5:07pm Mr. Pumpy: @John...stay away from the news then. I'm thinking you do.
	♥ 5:07pm steveo: (i had a cat named mr. p. but the p was for pickles; i didn't name her)
	♥ 5:08pm Mr. Pumpy: A female cat named Mr. Pickles? I like it.
	5:08pm miss g: Yeah, only when I was well into "12 Monkeys" did I think to myself "hey this might not be such an inspiring film at this moment" but, anyway, that's how it happened.
	♥ 5:09pm steveo: i liked the person who named her so much, i asked her to marry me
	♥ 5:09pm Bobby: WFMU is my favorite restaurant
	♥ 5:09pm steveo: (the person, not the cat)
	5:09pm John from Florham park: @Mr pumpy I listen to the BBC and the CBC, I stay away from cable news
	5:09pm miss g: "La Jetée" is timeless however and an LP from Superior Viaduct sounds amazing.
	♥ 5:10pm Mr. Pumpy: @steveo...good for you!
	♥ 5:11pm Mr. Pumpy: @John...I'm with you.
	5:12pm John from Florham park: @Mr pumpy or I will listen to abc from Australia and RNZI from New Zealand they don’t talk about you know who all the time
	🎸 ♥ 5:12pm dale: this is fab's premium? cause i'm getting his. and i like this.
	🎸 ♥ 5:13pm Mike da Scag: only one moving shot. Oof. The real deal, that film.
	♥ 5:14pm Mr. Pumpy: @John...the US news cycle is demented and tiring. I don't know how many do it!
	5:16pm Dano312: Good pick on the soundtrack. La Jetee happens to be MY fave film too!
	5:17pm John from Florham park: @Me pumpy I don’t watch cable news anymore, I will k ok is ten to local news like WCBS or WINS
	🎸 ♥ 5:17pm ParUbi: Hey everyone
	5:19pm Adam West Coaster: @Barney Grubbs, I’m right there with ya! I miss Andee, Allan and Cup!
	5:19pm John from Florham park: @Parubi howdy
	🎸 ♥ 5:20pm Rev. Turnip Druid: TAKE BACK REALITY.
	5:21pm geezerettw: Howdy all. Been thinking about Venezuela and hoping that's not our future. The sources of stress are stacking up faster than pancakes on a plate.
	🎸 ♥ 5:22pm dale: florida is near warwick - home of polka king jimmy sturr. the black dirt region.
	5:22pm John from Florham park: @fabio it happened after ginas show on Monday night
	🎸 ♥ 5:23pm Handy Haversack: Well, I made it home without apocalypse, so that's something. I thought that Aphrodite's Child sounded pretty killer! Hey, Mr. Pumpy!
	♥ 5:23pm Mr. Pumpy: Handy...how does it hangeth?
	🎸 ♥ 5:24pm dale: toronto's harmonium is my fave. maneige has some weird prog jazz fabio would probably like. look for 'libre service'
	🎸 ♥ 5:24pm Handy Haversack: Not too bad. Heading out for some punk rock in a couple hours. Just gotta recharge!
	🎸 ♥ 5:25pm Barney Grubbs: @Adam, their new releases list kept me going through years of living far away from record stores. (Andee's band Common Eider, King Eider has put out some pleasantly threatening releases over the last few years.)
	5:27pm Cocoa: they don't have balls?
	5:29pm John from Florham park: @Handy enjoy your punk
	5:29pm Brendan: You should definitely hit the bleep button when saying balls. That is to say make sure you cut your balls. Otherwise the FCC will cut your balls off. Either way suture self
	♥ 5:30pm Mr. Pumpy: Enjoy the punk, punk. Is it punk...or art rock? Seems like it might only be a chord or twp of difference!
	🎸 ♥ 5:30pm dale: ha ha! yoko freaked my cat squeakers out.
	♥ 5:31pm Mr. Pumpy: @Brendan...or cauterize.
	5:31pm geezerettw: Love this! They're playing together like kids. Sweet & funny.
	🎸 ♥ 5:33pm mrdonutsu: In the context of when I share my music with "conventional" musicians, and get - quite frequently - a response of complete silence, it always is such a solace to hear stuff like this on the WFMU. Yeah, John Fucking Lennon busted these moves, so just get over yourself Mr. Guitar Tabs.
	♥ 5:33pm Mr. Pumpy: Yeah...take that Mr. GT!
	5:41pm Jersey Cowboy: That some good $#!T thanks fabio

	5:42pm Buddha of Suburbia: I'm talking to u too, DALE!
	5:43pm Buddha of Suburbia: Miss G i used to go to Limelight in the early 90s. My friend John was a promoter and cage dancer.
	🎸 ♥ 5:43pm dale: oh - hey boodsy.
	5:43pm Adam West Coaster: @ Barney, YESSSS! I wish he was hooked up with WFMU, but do you ever listen to Andee’s show on Gimme Metal? It’s great!
