	12:01pm BC Sterrett: Welcome :)
	12:01pm chresti: Hiya BC and lost things!
	♥ 12:01pm Otis Fodder: Floating down and landed. Success, on the moon.
	12:03pm Listener Bob in PGH: Some heavenly sounds ....
	12:03pm Ursula1000: aloha
	12:03pm solo mon: Just arrived via coffee bubble and cat biscuits. Hello all!
	♥ 12:03pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): flapping wildly! hello!
	♥ 12:05pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): solo mon! Just found the Lynda Barry blast i missed on Monday. Saw you'd recently reread Cruddy. A total favorite. Lynda Barry changed my life and made me more popular!
	12:05pm StringOFperils: Jello's stack o wax. Nice !
	♥ 12:05pm Lotis Rhapsody: High Time we Kick out the Jams!
	12:06pm BC Sterrett: This is a "Them" cover song
	12:06pm Listener Bob in PGH: Wow, I've never seen this MC5 record cover! Looks like an early one.
	♥ 12:07pm joe: 'ello folks
	12:07pm StringOFperils: I have that volume of ReSearch Mag. It's an interesting read. Nice colour pic of Jello on the back, centrefold style, lying on a thousand exotica records, wearing tiger-claw gloves.
	♥ 12:07pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i like the vibe this set is setting
	12:08pm solo mon: Yes! Granny! I picked Cruddy up again last year. So intense and beautiful. What a story, what a point of view. It has really aged well. And gag worthy gore, written in a way I’ve never seen before!
	12:08pm chresti: I thought that MC5 sounded a little like Elevators
	♥ 12:08pm Lotis Rhapsody: The two go mighty well back-to-back.
	12:09pm Franco Twinkie: Elevators every goddamned day, fuck yeah!
	♥ 12:09pm Rich in Washington: Oh wow. I've had that version of I Can Only Give You Everything on a radio mix tape since the early 80s and didn't realize it was the MC5!
	12:09pm Franco Twinkie: Nazz!
	♥ 12:09pm Lotis Rhapsody: Yay, Nazz!
	♥ 12:10pm joe: Everything V.Vale and Juno put out is pretty amazing. There is also a great video floating around I think from Fuse of Jello going over is record colleciton
	♥ 12:10pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): solo mon: i took a couple of Lynda Barry's writing workshops and learned her process. Got to see original brush-painted drafts of Cruddy! (she wrote the first draft with hand-ground Japanese ink and brush!)
	12:10pm solo mon: Ahhhhh the nazzzzzzz
	12:10pm Mr Fab: I took Li’l Fab to a free-for-kids show Roky Erickson put on. There was ice cream. True story!
	♥ 12:11pm Lotis Rhapsody: Totally joe. Was just reading the Bodily Fluids RE/Search book the other day. Pranks is a fav too!
	♥ 12:11pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Mr Fab that's hilarious! Was there fried chicken, too?
	12:12pm solo mon: Little fab is one lucky kid!
	♥ 12:12pm Lotis Rhapsody: Fab - Did they serve Roxy Road Ice Cream ;)
	♥ 12:12pm joe: Here is the Jello video It's actually a two parter www.youtube.com...
	♥ 12:12pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i've had the experience of seeing Jello's record collection in person. It really is the most extraordinary collection i've ever seen.
	♥ 12:12pm Lotis Rhapsody: Roky Road that is. Roxy Road was at the Roxy club in NYC.
	12:13pm Franco Twinkie: I was at the flea market and I found this Nazz record and I showed it to a young friend and told her she had to buy it. She said she didn't buy 45's. I said BUY IT! She bought it.
	♥ 12:13pm joe: @Mr Fab that is amazing. Did he dedicate Your Gonna Miss Me to the ice cream
	12:13pm solo mon: You don’t love me yet you love my ice cream
	♥ 12:13pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Franco: you have to be stern with the young 'uns sometimes.
	12:14pm Mr Fab: Otis, You are not the first person to have made the Roky road joke! Nah, they missed that golden opportunity, just a truck handing out FrozeToes n stuff.
	12:17pm StringOFperils: Good Alice choice ! Takes me back to a 1974 basement.
	12:18pm solo mon: Gran I’d love to talk to you some time bout what you learned I’ve been fascinated by her work since I was young.
	♥ 12:19pm Rich in Washington: Hiya, BC!
	12:19pm Franco Twinkie: Granny, I know. If something is essential, not because it's on some list, but gets to the very heart of the matter, you must preach, plead, bully, convince, because it is the fundamental truth, and it will never change.
	12:19pm solo mon: Hey rich how’s it going?
	12:21pm BC Sterrett: Hello Rich, Franco, Solo Mom, String, Fab, Spicy, Joe, Lotis, Otis and silent listeners :)
	12:21pm solo mon: Weirdly I have been listening to a lot of Alice cooper lately. Loving the pretties for you album and easy action.
	♥ 12:21pm Rich in Washington: Hey, solo mon! Goin' swell!
	♥ 12:22pm Rich in Washington: I watched an interesting barrage of Jello Biafra videos last night - his What Would Jello Do? YouTube segments. He's got some interesting perspective on state riots.
	12:23pm Mr Fab: Jello has long been on my list of dream Sheena DJs. If you’re out there Jello, the gig is yours!
	♥ 12:24pm Hopey Sockmonkey: SPARKS!
	12:24pm BC Sterrett: Holy Cow that would be amazing!
	♥ 12:24pm Rich in Washington: I think he lives in Boulder now. Not 100% positive.
	12:25pm Mr Fab: I’ve always pondered the meaning of the phrase “Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables“. Any ideas?
	12:25pm solo mon: Sparks is 100 percent my favorite band of all the times.
	♥ 12:25pm joe: @Rich yeah Jello's spoken word albums were legit life changers for me. A friend of friends father gave us No More Cacoons when we were like 14 and nothing was the same again. As I got/get older I don't always see 100% eye to eye with Biafra but we absolutely play on the same field and I would rather hear from and have him influencing much more then others.
	♥ 12:25pm Jan Turkenburg: Had to come back to the screen to clicky star The Sparks!
	♥ 12:27pm joe: @Mr Fab I always took it to be the music as the Fruit and Jellos old man enemies the Rotten Vegetables
	♥ 12:27pm joe: I always loved what I took as a send up to LZ I as the cover
	12:27pm solo mon: I’m clicky starring this one too!
	♥ 12:27pm joe: Me too
	♥ 12:27pm Jan Turkenburg: I second that ;-)
	12:28pm Mr Fab: Speaking of bad cops, they really bungled the murder of Peter Ivers, host of New Wave Theater, and composer of the Lady in the Radiator song. Joe - makes sense to me, thx!
	12:30pm Mr Fab: Jello spoken word live was as exciting as a rock show. He came to my alma mater’s student union, also on the bill was Wanda Coleman and John Trubee.
	♥ 12:31pm joe: @Mr Fab I have to admit my iggnorence to Peter until the New Wave Theater started to appear on Night Flight channel. When I started to look back it was very disheartening to see some of the issues. I never dug very deep but I really should.
	♥ 12:32pm Rich in Washington: While sadly I've never been present for these happenings, my pal Toby has managed to drag Jello to KBOO studios on several occasions when he's in town to interview him and also record station IDs.
	♥ 12:33pm joe: We got to see Jello spoken word at City Gardens in Trenton about a year after being exposed to him. It was a really really heavy experience for us We were young The first time we had been in Trenton at a pretty volitile time there The Gulf War on the horizon. It was just really really intense. It's truly a moment I have not reflected on this much until I write this and realize how life impacting it was.
	♥ 12:33pm Rich in Washington: Toby used to live in SF and says he was at a table at the infamous Pere Ubu gig where everyone challenged Jello to put his money where his mouth is and run for mayor of San Francisco. They go way back.
	12:36pm Mr Fab: Wow, Twink the toy piano band is really going for a new sound!
	12:36pm Franco Twinkie: My brother-in-law told me that long ago his band was trying to get into this house that was locked so they could practice. One member of the band, who was notorious was with a young lady. As they worked on the challenge of breaking and entering, they wagered how long it would take the Lothario to work his magic. Ten minutes after they were inside, the swain and his companion were fucking under a table.
	12:37pm Listener Bob in PGH: 122 is one of my all-time favorites!!!
	12:37pm BC Sterrett: Ha ha, I used to think the two Twink artists were the same as well. I was like, what an odd development
	♥ 12:37pm joe: I mean Jello and the Dead Kennedys were directly or indirectly responsible for putting me on such trajectories socially and musically. My love NOMEANSNO starts with JB and DK my interest in surf can be subconsciously traced bay to EB Ray the reason I even come to know Ministry (Lard) So much
	12:37pm solo mon: Yes living in SF a certain time and you hung around the scene you knew Jello. He hung out at a bar down the street from my apartment. People were challenging him all of the time, in fact it seemed to be somewhat of a past time for some of the young punks. I actually felt bad for him a lot of the time, as people were kind of rude to him often.
	12:38pm Listener Bob in PGH: "You better shut up and listen!" Always good advice.
	12:38pm Franco Twinkie: Punish Or Be Damned in my opinion it the best song by The Screamers.
	♥ 12:42pm joe: Mr Fab I am now making my mission to find a way to get in touch with a man I have no relation to in anyway and offer him a spot on Sheena's :)
	♥ 12:42pm Rich in Washington: The last time Jello was on KBOO he was incredibly prickly and curmudgeonly live Don Rickles, but he was apparently being mobbed by people as he was just in town to shoot a segment on Portlandia.
	12:44pm Mr Fab: Ha, thx joe, good luck!
	♥ 12:45pm Rich in Washington: like Don Rickles... Dang stubby fingers..
	♥ 12:46pm joe: @Rich my understanding is that although Jello was never a guy you could have a casual conversation with after the Gilman attacked he kind of became pretty stand offish especially in enviroments that were not 100% his. I have heard the same thing you are saying many times over the last few years but I also know people who ran into him at the GWAR B Q and said he was very kind and approachable.
	12:47pm Ursula1000: such a great album
	♥ 12:48pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i love kabuki
	12:48pm BC Sterrett: Dana Countryman told me that he once had lunch with Vale and Biafra and could hardly get a word in. He just sat and listened.
	♥ 12:48pm Rich in Washington: I think you're right. He went off on an articulate rant on why he won't let people run up to him and take selfies with him. He also recently said on one of his videos how when he attends demonstrations, he is approached by people who look nothing like activists who try to dare him to do illegal stuff, vandalism, and when he tells them 'no' they call him a pussy sellout, etc.
	♥ 12:48pm joe: @BC that is exactly what I would expect
	♥ 12:49pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Vale and Jello can both get going on the talk, i can imagine how it would be if they got into it together! ha ha!
	♥ 12:49pm joe: GREAT SHOW THANK YOU
	♥ 12:49pm Rich in Washington: I would LOVE to interview Biafra. He's one of those dudes who just needs a single prompt and he just goes off. I get super nervous interviewing people, but I prefer those kinds of interviewees.
	♥ 12:49pm Otis: DJ'ed at show in SF in 2006 at god forget where... and while a few times previous was at parties/shows with Jello in attendance had not spoken to him. Had a nice smoke outside (back when I was still on the cigs) and he was utterly fantastic and super nice. Fun night with Dana Countryman and Jean-Jacques Perrey hosting by Vale & RE/Search. Few days later was meeting Fab in LA at the Knitting Factory. Good memories!
	♥ 12:50pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, BC!
	♥ 12:50pm joe: Oh yeah you are strictly there to give him bullets to work off of :)
	♥ 12:50pm Rich in Washington: That video segment for Cratediggers (no affiliation!) with Jello is just amazing. Hilarious. Loved his Mrs. Miller impersonation.
	12:51pm BC Sterrett: Thanks everyone :)
	♥ 12:51pm joe: You know to be honest with you outside of the Donhue show I don't konw if I've ever seen JB on video in an interview it's always just him talking :)
	♥ 12:51pm Otis: My fav Hawkwind here, first ones a corker.
	12:51pm solo mon: Love this record!!!!!
	♥ 12:51pm Rich in Washington: I interviewed Firesign Theatre once and was terrified but they were not only lovely blokes but I rarely got a word in edgewise.
	♥ 12:51pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): There's a young cartoonist in the Bay Area, Krusty Wheatfield, who has been interning with Vale and making comics based on their collaborations. Check it out! Great stuff!
	12:52pm solo mon: Love the name Krusty Wheatfield stunner.
	♥ 12:52pm Rich in Washington: I will, Granny! V and ReSearch was such a huge part of my weirdness cultivation.
	♥ 12:52pm joe: @Granny Spicy Tuna WOW I will. THeres another one. I would have known nothing about RE/Search if not for JB.
	12:53pm Ursula1000: fab show---catch ya on the b side
	♥ 12:54pm Rich in Washington: I daresay those ReSearch/Incredibly Strange Music comps really re-ignited my record collecting. I had sort of given up and had at that point even sold off a large portion of my record collection.
	12:54pm Mr Fab: That sounds cool GST, will look for that. A few years ago I was wondering what ReSearch was up to. Vale’s still doing his thing, only they're like little pamphlet/booklet type pressings now.
	12:55pm Domenic: Thanks.. enjoyed the Kabuki.
	♥ 12:55pm Otis: Will check out Granny, thanks! Another super show BC. Take care!
	♥ 12:55pm joe: I have to fill some later holes in my RE/S collection. Now that I'm back to work I'll have to hit the shop. By the way V's bday was the other day.
	12:56pm BC Sterrett: Thanks Otis and Domenic. Until next time!
	♥ 12:58pm Rich in Washington: Great show, BC!
	12:59pm Mr Fab: Fantastic show, BC! And now that party moves hee: www.wfmu.org...
	♥ 12:59pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Thank you, BC! That was Swell!!
	1:01pm chresti: Thanks BC! Great show!

	♥ 12:42pm joe: Mr Fab I am now making my mission to find a way to get in touch with a man I have no relation to in anyway and offer him a spot on Sheena's :)
	♥ 12:42pm Rich in Washington: The last time Jello was on KBOO he was incredibly prickly and curmudgeonly live Don Rickles, but he was apparently being mobbed by people as he was just in town to shoot a segment on Portlandia.
	12:44pm Mr Fab: Ha, thx joe, good luck!
	♥ 12:45pm Rich in Washington: like Don Rickles... Dang stubby fingers..
	♥ 12:46pm joe: @Rich my understanding is that although Jello was never a guy you could have a casual conversation with after the Gilman attacked he kind of became pretty stand offish especially in enviroments that were not 100% his. I have heard the same thing you are saying many times over the last few years but I also know people who ran into him at the GWAR B Q and said he was very kind and approachable.
	12:47pm Ursula1000: such a great album
	♥ 12:48pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): i love kabuki
	12:48pm BC Sterrett: Dana Countryman told me that he once had lunch with Vale and Biafra and could hardly get a word in. He just sat and listened.
	♥ 12:48pm Rich in Washington: I think you're right. He went off on an articulate rant on why he won't let people run up to him and take selfies with him. He also recently said on one of his videos how when he attends demonstrations, he is approached by people who look nothing like activists who try to dare him to do illegal stuff, vandalism, and when he tells them 'no' they call him a pussy sellout, etc.
	♥ 12:48pm joe: @BC that is exactly what I would expect
	♥ 12:49pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Vale and Jello can both get going on the talk, i can imagine how it would be if they got into it together! ha ha!
	♥ 12:49pm joe: GREAT SHOW THANK YOU
	♥ 12:49pm Rich in Washington: I would LOVE to interview Biafra. He's one of those dudes who just needs a single prompt and he just goes off. I get super nervous interviewing people, but I prefer those kinds of interviewees.
	♥ 12:49pm Otis: DJ'ed at show in SF in 2006 at god forget where... and while a few times previous was at parties/shows with Jello in attendance had not spoken to him. Had a nice smoke outside (back when I was still on the cigs) and he was utterly fantastic and super nice. Fun night with Dana Countryman and Jean-Jacques Perrey hosting by Vale & RE/Search. Few days later was meeting Fab in LA at the Knitting Factory. Good memories!
	♥ 12:50pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, BC!
	♥ 12:50pm joe: Oh yeah you are strictly there to give him bullets to work off of :)
	♥ 12:50pm Rich in Washington: That video segment for Cratediggers (no affiliation!) with Jello is just amazing. Hilarious. Loved his Mrs. Miller impersonation.
	12:51pm BC Sterrett: Thanks everyone :)
	♥ 12:51pm joe: You know to be honest with you outside of the Donhue show I don't konw if I've ever seen JB on video in an interview it's always just him talking :)
	♥ 12:51pm Otis: My fav Hawkwind here, first ones a corker.
	12:51pm solo mon: Love this record!!!!!
	♥ 12:51pm Rich in Washington: I interviewed Firesign Theatre once and was terrified but they were not only lovely blokes but I rarely got a word in edgewise.
	♥ 12:51pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): There's a young cartoonist in the Bay Area, Krusty Wheatfield, who has been interning with Vale and making comics based on their collaborations. Check it out! Great stuff!
	12:52pm solo mon: Love the name Krusty Wheatfield stunner.
	♥ 12:52pm Rich in Washington: I will, Granny! V and ReSearch was such a huge part of my weirdness cultivation.
	♥ 12:52pm joe: @Granny Spicy Tuna WOW I will. THeres another one. I would have known nothing about RE/Search if not for JB.
	12:53pm Ursula1000: fab show---catch ya on the b side
	♥ 12:54pm Rich in Washington: I daresay those ReSearch/Incredibly Strange Music comps really re-ignited my record collecting. I had sort of given up and had at that point even sold off a large portion of my record collection.
	12:54pm Mr Fab: That sounds cool GST, will look for that. A few years ago I was wondering what ReSearch was up to. Vale’s still doing his thing, only they're like little pamphlet/booklet type pressings now.
	12:55pm Domenic: Thanks.. enjoyed the Kabuki.
	♥ 12:55pm Otis: Will check out Granny, thanks! Another super show BC. Take care!
	♥ 12:55pm joe: I have to fill some later holes in my RE/S collection. Now that I'm back to work I'll have to hit the shop. By the way V's bday was the other day.
	12:56pm BC Sterrett: Thanks Otis and Domenic. Until next time!
	♥ 12:58pm Rich in Washington: Great show, BC!
	12:59pm Mr Fab: Fantastic show, BC! And now that party moves hee: www.wfmu.org...
	♥ 12:59pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Thank you, BC! That was Swell!!
	1:01pm chresti: Thanks BC! Great show!
