	12:03pm Stanley: I'll join in the gloom!

	12:04pm Bill Mac: Gah! Mac n Cheese! I need it!!!
	12:05pm coelacanth∅: Howdy Bill & Zzzzzzero People
	12:05pm fleep: Hazy greetings
	12:06pm Jeff Golick: Wham bam thank you clam. Here we go.
	12:07pm coelacanth∅: i'll guess that a shot of clam broth would be as good as a shot of pickle juice after a shot of whiskey -but i'll never try it
	12:07pm Sem: Can't trust air you can't see, fleep.
	12:08pm KP in DC: Hello to Bill and all the Different Drummers~!
	12:11pm Bill Mac: Afternoon Mac-n-Cheesers!
	12:12pm chresti: Yximalloo!
	12:12pm rw: Morning! I'm sitting here wondering what Mr. Mac's sleep schedule is like. Heading out soon but will be listening from the road. I'm sure I'll be traveling very close to Zzzzzzero miles per Hour.
	12:13pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Bill. Did someone say pickle juice?
	12:14pm Bill Mac: rw Don't tell work how I've been spending my Fridays.
	12:15pm βrian: Our 5-year old asks for pickle juice. And the brine from black olives. Go figure.
	12:16pm Franco Twinkie: Hey RW, Sorry to hear that. God forbid it's the west side you have to crawl to.
	12:17pm Bill Mac: @Brian What, no paint chips?
	12:17pm rw: Topanga Canyon. West side was yesterday!
	12:17pm rw: Should be able to catch most of the show!
	12:19pm Franco Twinkie: Topanga, yikes!
	12:19pm coelacanth∅: good luck rw!
	12:25pm Brian in UK: What-Ho Bill. Go see Mdou Moctar at Monty Hall. You will not be disappointed. You may even be appointed.
	12:26pm Stanley: Tuareg Rawk!
	12:26pm Bill Mac: Yo Bri, I was just thinking that. Few good shows coming downstairs in the coming months
	12:26pm Sem: Blueman blues.
	12:27pm holland oats: record o' the year right here
	12:28pm Stanley: Sem. Very clever. I likes.
	12:29pm Bill Mac: Good stuff Holland - or should I say Mr Oats?
	12:29pm Brian in UK: Why would VW call a car Tuareg? Mind you Honda has a Jazz. Hyundai Speed Garage, anyone?
	12:30pm holland oats: just don't call me late for dinner - looking forward to the monty hall show
	12:30pm Sem: Stanley, I must tell you about going as far south in Morocco as you could before running into the insurgency over Western Sahara and the Moroccans. Eye and sphincter-opening, let me tell you.
	12:34pm Stanley: Hi Sem. It's a shame you can't go round West Africa that way. I have flown along the coast and, man, is it sparsely habited.
	12:35pm rw: Speaking of Mdou Moctar, my daughter and I saw the show last week in LA. He was selling jewelry at the merch table to raise funds for a school and in the confusion of the crowd and loud music I stupidly missed the opportunity to contribute. If any of y'all make it to any of the shows please thow a dollar or two in the hat for me!
	12:35pm rw: And I'm out. Thanks Bill! Have a great weekend everyone!
	12:36pm Franco Twinkie: From the Casbah to the Capri lounge. Good jump cut. Now, where is my mug frosty mug of pickle juice?
	12:37pm chresti: Same reason Jeep calls a car Cherokee, @BinUK?
	12:37pm Sem: Later, rw.
	12:38pm chresti: See ya, rw!
	12:40pm Brian in UK: @chresti, did not know that one. Thought Pinto or Bay would be more appropriate.
	12:47pm Stanley: Has anyone noticed that there's been a bit of a Suzi revival on WFMU lately?
	12:48pm Bill Mac: Who what?
	12:48pm Brian in UK: I remember an early interview with Suzi Q and she said that she was not a bull dyke. I had no idea what she was talking about.
	12:51pm Alex in Illinois: Toureg actually means: God Forsaken.
	12:53pm Bill Mac: Yeah I wouldnot wanna drive a Toureg.
	12:53pm chresti: hahaha
	12:56pm Alex In Illinois: I would want to drive a Nova. In Spanish, no va means: <he\|she\|it> does not go.
	12:56pm chresti: is that the car that had the cheating diesel version?
	12:57pm chresti: @Toureg
	12:57pm Brian in UK: Just opening new record turntable. Heard some wacky news the other day 8 track is making a comeback.
	12:57pm Alex In Illinois: I mean I would not want to drive a Nova.
	12:58pm Bill Mac: @BiUK Nooooooooooooo!!!
	12:58pm coelacanth: so that scumbag mickey most is trying to be recognised as a genius? laughable.
	12:58pm chresti: unless you didn't want to go anywhere@Alex
	12:59pm Uncle Lurker: Hey.
	12:59pm Alex In Illinois: @chresti Hahaha! Yes, I think so!
	12:59pm Brian in UK: @coelacanth thought Don Arden was our native lowlife.
	1:01pm chresti: Hey Uncle Lurker!
	1:03pm coelacanth∅: Brian there's room for both
	1:04pm Franco Twinkie: Suzi toured southeast Asia while the bullets were flying. She was one tough cookie.
	1:05pm holland oats: she'll always be leather to me
	1:07pm Franco Twinkie: Tom Waits version will make your hair stand up.
	1:09pm Bill Mac: Wow no kiddin'. I'll be looking for that one
	1:09pm Alex In Illinois: My sister says that breeders can't use the d-word. But we can use "camionesse".
	1:11pm KP in DC: So you're telling me Burton Cummings is worse than i imagined
	1:11pm Bill Mac: KP You don't like?
	1:17pm still b/p: I was in a place yesterday -- combination small performance and rehearsal and artist studio space -- and there are some art books around, including a good-size volume on Aubrey Beardsley sitting on the floor and leaning against the wall in one of the rest rooms. And while I regretted not having time to look through it, I thought that "Aubrey Bearsdley in the bathroom" would be a nice piece of a Tom Waits lyric.
	1:19pm coelacanth∅: (thought this was "peaches" for a few seconds)
	1:19pm holland oats: had this on black and white colored vinyl as a yoot
	1:20pm Bill Mac: @Holland We gots marbley vinyl
	1:20pm coelacanth∅: ...and for the record the nova was a good car!
	1:23pm holland oats: @bill there ya go - i think it was my 2nd colored vinyl behind elo's sweet talkin' woman purple 45
	1:24pm Bill Mac: I had one, engine ran great, but the body had majro cancer and a lot of water useta get in the trunk. There was a seal in the trunk that you had to remove to let the water out.
	1:26pm coelacanth∅: i have black and white on marble but never got into the album. probably listened to it a handful of times before giving up trying to like something i didn't like. that was >30 years ago. -good to hear that song today though.
	1:27pm Michael 98145: i confess i did like the Stranglers back then
	1:28pm holland oats: my favorite stranglers song is called 'rock it to the moon' - very devo, only appeared on a bonus 45 with stranglers 4
	1:28pm Brian in UK: I had an old Austin 1100. You had to wear wellingtons when it rained. Floor panels were dire.
	1:29pm coelacanth∅: Bill what year? i never had any issues of any kind until i slid it on it's side for ...100 yards? -and it slammed back down onto the road. -still i drove it away from that scene. (until i got stopped for driving a car with 2 flat tires on the road)
	1:31pm coelacanth∅: i was into the raven. i still listen to it now and then. (except i skip that duchess song! always did)
	1:32pm holland oats: selling some stranglers this weekend actually - sunday table h4 people! #plug
	1:36pm coelacanth∅: Brian i've had a few volvos that leak around the windscreen. one of them still after jamming lots of goo around the whole perimeter of it and eventually i figured out the water was getting in below the glass somewhere and the faster i went the more the water would be pushed up on the inside until it got to the top then dripped down.
	1:37pm Brian in UK: Bill, I think that the Stranglers were mistakenly put into the Punk category.
	1:38pm KP in DC: Bill, could it be the name, the Stranglers? Just a suggestion. I saw them early on. Dug "Peaches." That was it/
	1:38pm Brian in UK: Do you call Novas sub-compacts?
	1:39pm holland oats: best car song... electric eels - jaguar ride?
	1:41pm coelacanth∅: "mid-sized" i believe -at least back then. in the out of control piggyness that is the us now maybe it'd be called compact
	1:44pm Franco Twinkie: Top Stranglers song - No Mercy. Life lived and put to music.
	1:45pm coelacanth∅: Bill 1972 was when they still looked good but had some issues. i had an ugly '75 and i think they were generally excellent then. they'd gone from muscle car to modest middleclass worker car mine was passed down to me for a hundred bucks from my mother who had it passed to her from an old family friend
	1:47pm coelacanth∅: (when's Uncle Michael going to do a car song themed show?)
	1:47pm Bill Mac: @CC Lucky I think I spent over a thousand for mine. Always great to find a deal though,.
	1:47pm holland oats: datsun 510 holla
	1:49pm coelacanth∅: oh i was very lucky. my mother happened to get a new (used) car right when i was undertaking a rebuild project on my '69 volvo.
	1:49pm still b/p: Little Billy written for American Cancer Society. Hm. But was never given to them or used by them.
	1:50pm Bill Mac: @b/p I was wondering why they where laughing in the song
	1:51pm coelacanth∅: i had a datsun 510 coupe! 1978?
	1:53pm coelacanth∅: (...or, "hatchback"? )
	1:55pm βrian: I had a 1975 Datsun pickup that was hand-painted with a brush. The fenders flapped in the breeze, but boy was the beast reliable. When it finally died, someone paid me $200 to tow it away.
	1:55pm Bill Mac: Someone mentioned Pinto awhile ago. My buddy's parents had one that he drove around. We were always afraid of getting rear ended cos the gas tanks supposedly blew up on impact
	1:57pm Roberto: Wait, are we talking about Datsuns? My first car, an '81 510 hatchback in beige. I drove it for 17 years.
	1:59pm Michael 98145: a local boy had a Pinto with flames painted from the rear of the car
	1:59pm Bill Mac: @Michael Hey why lower your expectations!
	2:00pm coelacanth∅: Michael haha! i remember seeing pintos with bumper stickers that read "POW tank"
	2:04pm coelacanth∅: yeah datsun's were awesome. the same old family friend who unloaded his 75 nova that i ended up with had 2 datsun bluebirds in the early 60s. occasionally when our car was broken or when he needed to borrow it (big '57 bel air) my mother would use his (not his wife's) datsun and i loved it!
	2:05pm Jeff Golick: re flames painted on cars, see also: boingboing.net...
	2:06pm KP in DC: I saw the Who at Westbury Music Fair in 1968. They did "Little Billy," complete with coughs.
	2:07pm chresti: Vega, anyone?
	2:08pm Bill Mac: @KP Subtle!
	2:09pm Franco Twinkie: I had a '73 510. Slow as shit, but indestructible.
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: when vegas were introduced they were offered with either a 4 or a 2-cylinder engine. the 4 was painfully slow. i wonder if anyone ever bought a 2.
	2:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: Don't mind me. I'm sitting in the Zzzzzz row.
	2:17pm Bill Mac: I kin see you Ken, I'm standing on a chair
	2:18pm coelacanth∅: (that link doesn't work for me Jeff)
	2:19pm Brian in UK: Just started reading The Dharma Bums. First time reading Kerouac.
	2:20pm coelacanth∅: i had a volvo 240 wagon that i hand painted. i didn't want to do the flames thing so i painted blue water along the front, so it (theoretically) looked like i was plowing through water (or just coming out of it)
	2:21pm Bill Mac: @BiUK How's it going?
	2:23pm Bill Mac: Is it the Volvo that has the battery in the back seat?
	2:24pm Michael 98145: i loved the DogFaced Hermans ... thanks!
	2:25pm coelacanth∅: Bill...?
	2:25pm Bill Mac: I think Andy from the Ex was in them.
	2:26pm Bill Mac: Hey CC, what's up?
	2:27pm coelacanth∅: my volvo with a battery in the back seat? or a volvo that was designed that way? (either way, as you can guess, the answer is no!)
	2:29pm Bill Mac: A friend of mine had either a Volvo of an Audi and the battery was in the back seat, I swear!
	2:29pm coelacanth∅: ...although one car i carried an extra battery with me, on the back seat, for jump-starting because i couldn't figure out what was draining the battery.
	2:30pm Jeff Golick: BMWs of a certain vintage have the battery under the back seat.
	2:31pm Franco Twinkie: I'm trying to remember if it was my '64 Volvo wagon that had the battery under the back seat or was it my '68 VW wagon. I had them at the same time, so I'm mixing them up.
	2:32pm Bill Mac: @JG I just saw it mentioned that some BMWs had battery in the trunk
	2:33pm chresti: I had a battery in the back seat, might of been either the volvo or a vw rabbit
	2:33pm Franco Twinkie: I reprimered the right front fender, maan!
	2:33pm coelacanth∅: i know there's a volvo with the battery in the trunk/under the bed in the wagon model; but i wouldn't doubt the audi doing that. shitty cars. it may have been designed for 2 batteries, like some bmws, for all the unnecessary electrical crap -one in the engine compartment, one in the trunk (or maybe back seat!)
	2:35pm Bill Mac: @CC I remember him mentioning the car sucked
	2:36pm Sem: Nice, nice, nice. Lovely Tom.
	2:36pm coelacanth∅: oh yeah i think several cars used to do the under the seat thing. -REALLY not a good idea, in my opinion.
	2:36pm Bill Mac: @Franco I dig Mother with Ray Collins.... Hey Sem!
	2:36pm Franco Twinkie: Said hi to Tom Waits when he was sitting on a picnic bench eating a popsicle reading the paper.
	2:37pm coelacanth∅: was Tom friendly? i'll guess he would be.
	2:37pm Franco Twinkie: in this house Ray Collins is king!
	2:40pm Franco Twinkie: Yes he was. But he was dressed in black, top to toe on a really hot day!
	2:40pm Jeff Golick: Impressive run of cover designs on that last set, Bill.
	2:41pm nostrangerer: Yes, nothing on the schedule after this show. So opportunity there.
	2:42pm Brian in UK: Bill, bit late just eaten dinner. Only up to page 30. Think I can see at this distance how his writing in fluenced Sixties writing. Richard Brautigan?
	2:43pm Michael 98145: RIP, Gary Stewart - www.nytimes.com...
	2:43pm Brian in UK: Guy Stevens was from another place.
	2:46pm holland oats: almost 40 years later & i still don't know what santamassagana means
	2:46pm Bill Mac: @HO Maybe a bit of necessary scatting?
	2:46pm Brian in UK: The opening guitar chords on London Calling track aways gets my attention. 1979? Were they a Punk band? Originally maybe. They had a broad view.
	2:50pm holland oats: rasta term my guess
	2:50pm Franco Twinkie: In 1979 they were nothing but high speed racket live. Later I think they ditched that approach, wisely.
	2:50pm nostrangerer: Hope this show is archived for later playback. Keep getting interrupted by work calls. It's Friday afternoon. Just was to listen to the great sounds and do my paperwork in peace.
	2:51pm holland oats: the diplomat's son...
	2:51pm northguineahills: Was here briefly!
	2:51pm coelacanth∅: it's from the amharic (sp?) language. the meaning is some religious crap, like "give thanks and praises" kind of thing
	2:53pm Bill Mac: NGH!!!
	2:53pm Sem: Be seeing you again during your Stan stand-in (stand-up? sit-up? lay down?), Bill. Always a pleasure, they say there is no accounting for taste:-D Ciao of now.
	2:53pm holland oats: thanks and praises, coelacantho
	2:55pm Michael 98145: love me some Gal Costa, too.
	2:55pm Bill Mac: Later Semula!
	2:56pm Franco Twinkie: TGIF kinda vibe you threw down Bill. Thanks.
	2:57pm Michael 98145: Yes. Thank you, Bill M.
	2:57pm northguineahills: coel got it correct.
	2:57pm Brian in UK: Top job, Bill 'n Maxine. Be seeing you.
	2:58pm Bill Mac: Thanks all closing time in about 10 or so... see you all soon
	2:58pm still b/p: Much to enjoy today, including the "Patricia" talkover track.
	2:59pm northguineahills: awwew, I hope closing time was 10 (pm EDT).
	3:00pm Franco Twinkie: My sister saw a dehydrated/reconstituded Guess Who at a county fair . said they were great/awful.
	3:01pm KP in DC: Nice work bill. you missed the Dc storm, which is not another Soccer team'
	3:01pm Bill Mac: I think there's still something calling themselves that wandering around
	3:02pm Bill Mac: Thanks KP. Good name for a soccer team!
	3:06pm chresti: Thanks Bill Mac!
	3:06pm Bill Mac: Opening and closing the place, thanks Chresti!
	3:07pm coelacanth∅: Splendid Bill, just Splendid! Thanks! later on, y'all
	3:07pm nostrangerer: Thanks to Mszzzz Mac for playlist pics.
	3:08pm Franco Twinkie: Is this the actor?
	3:09pm Bill Mac: John freaking Reilly!!!!
	3:11pm Alex in Illinois: Tom Kastle does the best rendition of Fathom The Bowl. Especially if you are sitting at a table with him and you and the other Sea Chanty participants join in on the chorus
	3:11pm Brian in UK: Yes, he has played with the estimable Tom Brosseau.
	3:11pm Franco Twinkie: I saw him shopping at Whole foods. At first I thought it was a friend of mine, and I thought Gee, he sure looks awful. Then I realized it was he!
	3:14pm Brian in UK: Bill, lots of student riots in London & Paris in '68.
	3:15pm coelacanth∅: i forgot about this gem
	3:15pm Bill Mac: @BiUK Nuff said, I took it literally via the music
	3:16pm holland oats: this could rival garbage time's 'heavy metal'
	3:16pm Bill Mac: It's only fitting.... Happy Birthday Gary, wherever you are....
	3:17pm Bill Mac: I'll take that as a compliment HO
	3:18pm coelacanth∅: noooo! i wouldn't have to turn the radio off on tuesdays at 11 am if it were this song
	4:11pm Malloo: Thanks!

	11:52am Sem: Hello, Bill, chresti...got a sunny day, so I'll be listening from the deck, which I am replacing.
	11:53am Sem: BiUK is all chook up these days, he will elucidate.
	12:02pm Doug Schulkind: Bill's Clam House!
	12:03pm Stanley: I'll join in the gloom!
	12:04pm Artie: Let's get greasy!
	12:04pm Bill Mac: Gah! Mac n Cheese! I need it!!!
	12:05pm coelacanth∅: Howdy Bill & Zzzzzzero People
	12:05pm fleep: Hazy greetings
	12:06pm Jeff Golick: Wham bam thank you clam. Here we go.
	12:07pm coelacanth∅: i'll guess that a shot of clam broth would be as good as a shot of pickle juice after a shot of whiskey -but i'll never try it
	12:07pm Sem: Can't trust air you can't see, fleep.
	12:08pm KP in DC: Hello to Bill and all the Different Drummers~!
	12:11pm Bill Mac: Afternoon Mac-n-Cheesers!
	12:12pm chresti: Yximalloo!
	12:12pm rw: Morning! I'm sitting here wondering what Mr. Mac's sleep schedule is like. Heading out soon but will be listening from the road. I'm sure I'll be traveling very close to Zzzzzzero miles per Hour.
	12:13pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Bill. Did someone say pickle juice?
	12:14pm Bill Mac: rw Don't tell work how I've been spending my Fridays.
	12:15pm βrian: Our 5-year old asks for pickle juice. And the brine from black olives. Go figure.
	12:16pm Franco Twinkie: Hey RW, Sorry to hear that. God forbid it's the west side you have to crawl to.
	12:17pm Bill Mac: @Brian What, no paint chips?
	12:17pm rw: Topanga Canyon. West side was yesterday!
	12:17pm rw: Should be able to catch most of the show!
	12:19pm Franco Twinkie: Topanga, yikes!
	12:19pm coelacanth∅: good luck rw!
	12:25pm Brian in UK: What-Ho Bill. Go see Mdou Moctar at Monty Hall. You will not be disappointed. You may even be appointed.
	12:26pm Stanley: Tuareg Rawk!
	12:26pm Bill Mac: Yo Bri, I was just thinking that. Few good shows coming downstairs in the coming months
	12:26pm Sem: Blueman blues.
	12:27pm holland oats: record o' the year right here
	12:28pm Stanley: Sem. Very clever. I likes.
	12:29pm Bill Mac: Good stuff Holland - or should I say Mr Oats?
	12:29pm Brian in UK: Why would VW call a car Tuareg? Mind you Honda has a Jazz. Hyundai Speed Garage, anyone?
	12:30pm holland oats: just don't call me late for dinner - looking forward to the monty hall show
	12:30pm Sem: Stanley, I must tell you about going as far south in Morocco as you could before running into the insurgency over Western Sahara and the Moroccans. Eye and sphincter-opening, let me tell you.
	12:34pm Stanley: Hi Sem. It's a shame you can't go round West Africa that way. I have flown along the coast and, man, is it sparsely habited.
	12:35pm rw: Speaking of Mdou Moctar, my daughter and I saw the show last week in LA. He was selling jewelry at the merch table to raise funds for a school and in the confusion of the crowd and loud music I stupidly missed the opportunity to contribute. If any of y'all make it to any of the shows please thow a dollar or two in the hat for me!
	12:35pm rw: And I'm out. Thanks Bill! Have a great weekend everyone!
	12:36pm Franco Twinkie: From the Casbah to the Capri lounge. Good jump cut. Now, where is my mug frosty mug of pickle juice?
	12:37pm chresti: Same reason Jeep calls a car Cherokee, @BinUK?
	12:37pm Sem: Later, rw.
	12:38pm chresti: See ya, rw!
	12:40pm Brian in UK: @chresti, did not know that one. Thought Pinto or Bay would be more appropriate.
	12:47pm Stanley: Has anyone noticed that there's been a bit of a Suzi revival on WFMU lately?
	12:48pm Bill Mac: Who what?
	12:48pm Brian in UK: I remember an early interview with Suzi Q and she said that she was not a bull dyke. I had no idea what she was talking about.
	12:51pm Alex in Illinois: Toureg actually means: God Forsaken.
	12:53pm Bill Mac: Yeah I wouldnot wanna drive a Toureg.
	12:53pm chresti: hahaha
	12:56pm Alex In Illinois: I would want to drive a Nova. In Spanish, no va means: <he\|she\|it> does not go.
	12:56pm chresti: is that the car that had the cheating diesel version?
	12:57pm chresti: @Toureg
	12:57pm Brian in UK: Just opening new record turntable. Heard some wacky news the other day 8 track is making a comeback.
	12:57pm Alex In Illinois: I mean I would not want to drive a Nova.
	12:58pm Bill Mac: @BiUK Nooooooooooooo!!!
	12:58pm coelacanth: so that scumbag mickey most is trying to be recognised as a genius? laughable.
	12:58pm chresti: unless you didn't want to go anywhere@Alex
	12:59pm Uncle Lurker: Hey.
	12:59pm Alex In Illinois: @chresti Hahaha! Yes, I think so!
	12:59pm Brian in UK: @coelacanth thought Don Arden was our native lowlife.
	1:01pm chresti: Hey Uncle Lurker!
	1:03pm coelacanth∅: Brian there's room for both
	1:04pm Franco Twinkie: Suzi toured southeast Asia while the bullets were flying. She was one tough cookie.
	1:05pm holland oats: she'll always be leather to me
	1:07pm Franco Twinkie: Tom Waits version will make your hair stand up.
	1:09pm Bill Mac: Wow no kiddin'. I'll be looking for that one
	1:09pm Alex In Illinois: My sister says that breeders can't use the d-word. But we can use "camionesse".
	1:11pm KP in DC: So you're telling me Burton Cummings is worse than i imagined
	1:11pm Bill Mac: KP You don't like?
	1:17pm still b/p: I was in a place yesterday -- combination small performance and rehearsal and artist studio space -- and there are some art books around, including a good-size volume on Aubrey Beardsley sitting on the floor and leaning against the wall in one of the rest rooms. And while I regretted not having time to look through it, I thought that "Aubrey Bearsdley in the bathroom" would be a nice piece of a Tom Waits lyric.
	1:19pm coelacanth∅: (thought this was "peaches" for a few seconds)
	1:19pm holland oats: had this on black and white colored vinyl as a yoot
	1:20pm Bill Mac: @Holland We gots marbley vinyl
	1:20pm coelacanth∅: ...and for the record the nova was a good car!
	1:23pm holland oats: @bill there ya go - i think it was my 2nd colored vinyl behind elo's sweet talkin' woman purple 45
	1:24pm Bill Mac: I had one, engine ran great, but the body had majro cancer and a lot of water useta get in the trunk. There was a seal in the trunk that you had to remove to let the water out.
	1:26pm coelacanth∅: i have black and white on marble but never got into the album. probably listened to it a handful of times before giving up trying to like something i didn't like. that was >30 years ago. -good to hear that song today though.
	1:27pm Michael 98145: i confess i did like the Stranglers back then
	1:28pm holland oats: my favorite stranglers song is called 'rock it to the moon' - very devo, only appeared on a bonus 45 with stranglers 4
	1:28pm Brian in UK: I had an old Austin 1100. You had to wear wellingtons when it rained. Floor panels were dire.
	1:29pm coelacanth∅: Bill what year? i never had any issues of any kind until i slid it on it's side for ...100 yards? -and it slammed back down onto the road. -still i drove it away from that scene. (until i got stopped for driving a car with 2 flat tires on the road)
	1:31pm coelacanth∅: i was into the raven. i still listen to it now and then. (except i skip that duchess song! always did)
	1:32pm holland oats: selling some stranglers this weekend actually - sunday table h4 people! #plug
	1:36pm coelacanth∅: Brian i've had a few volvos that leak around the windscreen. one of them still after jamming lots of goo around the whole perimeter of it and eventually i figured out the water was getting in below the glass somewhere and the faster i went the more the water would be pushed up on the inside until it got to the top then dripped down.
	1:37pm Brian in UK: Bill, I think that the Stranglers were mistakenly put into the Punk category.
	1:38pm KP in DC: Bill, could it be the name, the Stranglers? Just a suggestion. I saw them early on. Dug "Peaches." That was it/
	1:38pm Brian in UK: Do you call Novas sub-compacts?
	1:39pm holland oats: best car song... electric eels - jaguar ride?
	1:41pm coelacanth∅: "mid-sized" i believe -at least back then. in the out of control piggyness that is the us now maybe it'd be called compact
	1:44pm Franco Twinkie: Top Stranglers song - No Mercy. Life lived and put to music.
	1:45pm coelacanth∅: Bill 1972 was when they still looked good but had some issues. i had an ugly '75 and i think they were generally excellent then. they'd gone from muscle car to modest middleclass worker car mine was passed down to me for a hundred bucks from my mother who had it passed to her from an old family friend
	1:47pm coelacanth∅: (when's Uncle Michael going to do a car song themed show?)
	1:47pm Bill Mac: @CC Lucky I think I spent over a thousand for mine. Always great to find a deal though,.
	1:47pm holland oats: datsun 510 holla
	1:49pm coelacanth∅: oh i was very lucky. my mother happened to get a new (used) car right when i was undertaking a rebuild project on my '69 volvo.
	1:49pm still b/p: Little Billy written for American Cancer Society. Hm. But was never given to them or used by them.
	1:50pm Bill Mac: @b/p I was wondering why they where laughing in the song
	1:51pm coelacanth∅: i had a datsun 510 coupe! 1978?
	1:53pm coelacanth∅: (...or, "hatchback"? )
	1:55pm βrian: I had a 1975 Datsun pickup that was hand-painted with a brush. The fenders flapped in the breeze, but boy was the beast reliable. When it finally died, someone paid me $200 to tow it away.
	1:55pm Bill Mac: Someone mentioned Pinto awhile ago. My buddy's parents had one that he drove around. We were always afraid of getting rear ended cos the gas tanks supposedly blew up on impact
	1:57pm Roberto: Wait, are we talking about Datsuns? My first car, an '81 510 hatchback in beige. I drove it for 17 years.
	1:59pm Michael 98145: a local boy had a Pinto with flames painted from the rear of the car
	1:59pm Bill Mac: @Michael Hey why lower your expectations!
	2:00pm coelacanth∅: Michael haha! i remember seeing pintos with bumper stickers that read "POW tank"
	2:04pm coelacanth∅: yeah datsun's were awesome. the same old family friend who unloaded his 75 nova that i ended up with had 2 datsun bluebirds in the early 60s. occasionally when our car was broken or when he needed to borrow it (big '57 bel air) my mother would use his (not his wife's) datsun and i loved it!
	2:05pm Jeff Golick: re flames painted on cars, see also: boingboing.net...
	2:06pm KP in DC: I saw the Who at Westbury Music Fair in 1968. They did "Little Billy," complete with coughs.
	2:07pm chresti: Vega, anyone?
	2:08pm Bill Mac: @KP Subtle!
	2:09pm Franco Twinkie: I had a '73 510. Slow as shit, but indestructible.
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: when vegas were introduced they were offered with either a 4 or a 2-cylinder engine. the 4 was painfully slow. i wonder if anyone ever bought a 2.
	2:15pm Ken From Hyde Park: Don't mind me. I'm sitting in the Zzzzzz row.
	2:17pm Bill Mac: I kin see you Ken, I'm standing on a chair
	2:18pm coelacanth∅: (that link doesn't work for me Jeff)
	2:19pm Brian in UK: Just started reading The Dharma Bums. First time reading Kerouac.
	2:20pm coelacanth∅: i had a volvo 240 wagon that i hand painted. i didn't want to do the flames thing so i painted blue water along the front, so it (theoretically) looked like i was plowing through water (or just coming out of it)
	2:21pm Bill Mac: @BiUK How's it going?
	2:23pm Bill Mac: Is it the Volvo that has the battery in the back seat?
	2:24pm Michael 98145: i loved the DogFaced Hermans ... thanks!
	2:25pm coelacanth∅: Bill...?
	2:25pm Bill Mac: I think Andy from the Ex was in them.
	2:26pm Bill Mac: Hey CC, what's up?
	2:27pm coelacanth∅: my volvo with a battery in the back seat? or a volvo that was designed that way? (either way, as you can guess, the answer is no!)
	2:29pm Bill Mac: A friend of mine had either a Volvo of an Audi and the battery was in the back seat, I swear!
	2:29pm coelacanth∅: ...although one car i carried an extra battery with me, on the back seat, for jump-starting because i couldn't figure out what was draining the battery.
	2:30pm Jeff Golick: BMWs of a certain vintage have the battery under the back seat.
	2:31pm Franco Twinkie: I'm trying to remember if it was my '64 Volvo wagon that had the battery under the back seat or was it my '68 VW wagon. I had them at the same time, so I'm mixing them up.
	2:32pm Bill Mac: @JG I just saw it mentioned that some BMWs had battery in the trunk
	2:33pm chresti: I had a battery in the back seat, might of been either the volvo or a vw rabbit
	2:33pm Franco Twinkie: I reprimered the right front fender, maan!
	2:33pm coelacanth∅: i know there's a volvo with the battery in the trunk/under the bed in the wagon model; but i wouldn't doubt the audi doing that. shitty cars. it may have been designed for 2 batteries, like some bmws, for all the unnecessary electrical crap -one in the engine compartment, one in the trunk (or maybe back seat!)
	2:35pm Bill Mac: @CC I remember him mentioning the car sucked
	2:36pm Sem: Nice, nice, nice. Lovely Tom.
	2:36pm coelacanth∅: oh yeah i think several cars used to do the under the seat thing. -REALLY not a good idea, in my opinion.
	2:36pm Bill Mac: @Franco I dig Mother with Ray Collins.... Hey Sem!
	2:36pm Franco Twinkie: Said hi to Tom Waits when he was sitting on a picnic bench eating a popsicle reading the paper.
	2:37pm coelacanth∅: was Tom friendly? i'll guess he would be.
	2:37pm Franco Twinkie: in this house Ray Collins is king!
	2:40pm Franco Twinkie: Yes he was. But he was dressed in black, top to toe on a really hot day!
	2:40pm Jeff Golick: Impressive run of cover designs on that last set, Bill.
	2:41pm nostrangerer: Yes, nothing on the schedule after this show. So opportunity there.
	2:42pm Brian in UK: Bill, bit late just eaten dinner. Only up to page 30. Think I can see at this distance how his writing in fluenced Sixties writing. Richard Brautigan?
	2:43pm Michael 98145: RIP, Gary Stewart - www.nytimes.com...
	2:43pm Brian in UK: Guy Stevens was from another place.
	2:46pm holland oats: almost 40 years later & i still don't know what santamassagana means
	2:46pm Bill Mac: @HO Maybe a bit of necessary scatting?
	2:46pm Brian in UK: The opening guitar chords on London Calling track aways gets my attention. 1979? Were they a Punk band? Originally maybe. They had a broad view.
	2:50pm holland oats: rasta term my guess
	2:50pm Franco Twinkie: In 1979 they were nothing but high speed racket live. Later I think they ditched that approach, wisely.
	2:50pm nostrangerer: Hope this show is archived for later playback. Keep getting interrupted by work calls. It's Friday afternoon. Just was to listen to the great sounds and do my paperwork in peace.
	2:51pm holland oats: the diplomat's son...
	2:51pm northguineahills: Was here briefly!
	2:51pm coelacanth∅: it's from the amharic (sp?) language. the meaning is some religious crap, like "give thanks and praises" kind of thing
	2:53pm Bill Mac: NGH!!!
	2:53pm Sem: Be seeing you again during your Stan stand-in (stand-up? sit-up? lay down?), Bill. Always a pleasure, they say there is no accounting for taste:-D Ciao of now.
	2:53pm holland oats: thanks and praises, coelacantho
	2:55pm Michael 98145: love me some Gal Costa, too.
	2:55pm Bill Mac: Later Semula!
	2:56pm Franco Twinkie: TGIF kinda vibe you threw down Bill. Thanks.
	2:57pm Michael 98145: Yes. Thank you, Bill M.
	2:57pm northguineahills: coel got it correct.
	2:57pm Brian in UK: Top job, Bill 'n Maxine. Be seeing you.
	2:58pm Bill Mac: Thanks all closing time in about 10 or so... see you all soon
	2:58pm still b/p: Much to enjoy today, including the "Patricia" talkover track.
	2:59pm northguineahills: awwew, I hope closing time was 10 (pm EDT).
	3:00pm Franco Twinkie: My sister saw a dehydrated/reconstituded Guess Who at a county fair . said they were great/awful.
	3:01pm KP in DC: Nice work bill. you missed the Dc storm, which is not another Soccer team'
	3:01pm Bill Mac: I think there's still something calling themselves that wandering around
	3:02pm Bill Mac: Thanks KP. Good name for a soccer team!
	3:06pm chresti: Thanks Bill Mac!
	3:06pm Bill Mac: Opening and closing the place, thanks Chresti!
	3:07pm coelacanth∅: Splendid Bill, just Splendid! Thanks! later on, y'all
	3:07pm nostrangerer: Thanks to Mszzzz Mac for playlist pics.
	3:08pm Franco Twinkie: Is this the actor?
	3:09pm Bill Mac: John freaking Reilly!!!!
	3:11pm Alex in Illinois: Tom Kastle does the best rendition of Fathom The Bowl. Especially if you are sitting at a table with him and you and the other Sea Chanty participants join in on the chorus
	3:11pm Brian in UK: Yes, he has played with the estimable Tom Brosseau.
	3:11pm Franco Twinkie: I saw him shopping at Whole foods. At first I thought it was a friend of mine, and I thought Gee, he sure looks awful. Then I realized it was he!
	3:14pm Brian in UK: Bill, lots of student riots in London & Paris in '68.
	3:15pm coelacanth∅: i forgot about this gem
	3:15pm Bill Mac: @BiUK Nuff said, I took it literally via the music
	3:16pm holland oats: this could rival garbage time's 'heavy metal'
	3:16pm Bill Mac: It's only fitting.... Happy Birthday Gary, wherever you are....
	3:17pm Bill Mac: I'll take that as a compliment HO
	3:18pm coelacanth∅: noooo! i wouldn't have to turn the radio off on tuesdays at 11 am if it were this song
	4:11pm Malloo: Thanks!
