	♥ 12:15pm slugluv1313: Good afternoon, Diane & everyone!

	12:19pm Cliff: Wish I could dream in infrared

	♥ 12:20pm JP from KC: Whitney Houston's Crypt is a fucking sweet band name.
	🎸 ♥ 12:21pm Ken From Hyde Park: Glad that Lindsay can make it on this fine day. Her missing last week left the door open for some timely Prince tracks.
	♥ 12:29pm Rich in Washington: WIPERS!
	12:40pm Cheri Pi: THANKYOU DIANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	12:44pm Dean: Claw Hammer mangles this Devo tune nicely, too.
	12:44pm Cheri Pi: that Mommy was great
	12:45pm miketp: Couldn't resist the memory of wrestler Killer Kowalski. I'm sure no relation to your guest. Thank you for entertaining me Diane!
	12:46pm Cheri Pi: what coelacanth said at @12:09
	12:49pm Cecile: hola, all!
	12:50pm Cheri Pi: CECILE
	12:51pm Cecile: PI
	12:55pm Cliff: Haven't heard the Kowalskis before, but now they're my new favorite band :D
	12:55pm Chris from DC: Th'Samoans!
	♥ 1:03pm Stevel: I went to school in Fort Collins. OK town, and haven't been for years. Austin of Colorado is a very nice thing to say. Beautiful country.
	1:06pm Cecile: it's bad when people move to NYC to escape the rising costs of London and Tokyo.
	1:12pm JakeGould: Love this conversation. And yeah, HotTopic seems like a cheap way out/in but growing up in deep Brooklyn in the 1970s and 1980s, I used to get hassled just for the 1" inch buttons I wore on my denim jacket… And taking the subway to “the city” took 1 hour but it was worth it…
	1:12pm geezerette: she's actually right about that,our conception of time is different now,and privacy.
	1:13pm Dean: Technology, technology, technology. It distracts us and it seeks an immediate response. It is completely okay to regret Luddite-like the way the "network effect" now demands our compliance. (He said on a web comment board.)
	1:14pm geezerette: the problem is that our neurology is the same.
	1:15pm geezerette: @DEAN: yep! paradox.
	1:16pm geezerette: right about reagen too. actually reagen/thatcher
	1:16pm Cliff: Bwahaha, Reagan being the best thing for punk rock! (And Margaret Thatcher over in Ingerland)
	1:16pm Cecile: need some MOBY stories
	1:18pm V Priceless: "was it a white whale?"
	1:18pm Cecile: Yeah, hardcore had its stupid moments. I'm glad I was a little older when it happened.
	1:18pm JakeGould: Technology is great nowadays. I wish I had the tech we had now when I was a teen. So much easier to learn about cool things… But the downside is local scenes don’t form the way they used to. Nowadays people are compartmentalized into exactly what they like. So if you live in the middle of nowhere, the metal kids, punk kids, queer kids, hardcore kids and others have less and less reason to form a “Freak and Geek” group of their own.
	1:20pm Cecile: and parents are so afraid of older people being friends with younger people (thanks to creeps who have abused this) that it's almost like there's no different perspective or voice of reason in these scenes.
	1:22pm Dean: Not saying there isn't an upside to technology. I live in California and listen regularly to a "radio" station out of New Jersey! But there are costs we neglect to take into account. We pay dearly for convenience and access to "information."
	1:22pm Cliff: Wow, I had no idea Moby started out in 80's hardcore...worlds colliding
	1:22pm JakeGould: I do almost think in some areas that are not 100% hick, but not 100% city scenes can form because of a need for local knowledge. Like deep parts of Brooklyn or parts of NJ that are close enough to the PATH to get to “the city” but still a pain.
	1:23pm Cecile: Lindsay is cutting out on my end
	1:24pm Dean: Believe me, there is value to not having photos. For example, I attended every Grateful Dead live show ever, and nobody has the pictures to prove otherwise.
	1:24pm JakeGould: That kind of “final mile” of knowledge can breed scenes. But saying tech is destroying things is regressive… Yeah, I have fond memories of the old ways of trying to be cool, but still… There will always be new things.
	1:24pm geezerette: @Jake:it's a bigger problem than most people are willing to acknowledge. this is what net neutrality was about. there's been so much corporate media consolidation that tech interfaces are extremely mediated. there is a trojan horse aspect even though we all love tech it's important to maintain critical thinking skills.
	1:26pm geezerette: ...also,getting good at things takes time and focus.
	1:27pm Cheri Pi: I never remember dates, I only remember visual cues
	1:28pm Cliff: Heh, I always remember the weather and what the crowd was like, but the date or even what year it was? Nope
	1:28pm geezerette: @Cheri:me too
	1:29pm Cecile: me too for the most part, Pi.
	1:29pm JakeGould: Eh, I’m not too worried. Forget about net neutrality; posting your own personal blog nowadays is impractical because of many different reasons… It’s almost at the point where coming up with some print zine/blog hybrid is worth it for some things. In the art world zine (printed) are making a comeback. People will always figure out ways to communicate in a way that works for them.
	1:32pm geezerette: all I'm saying is that history is important and being aware of macro is as important as micro. my bias,I'll admit.
	1:33pm Dean: Lindsey is obviously sparking a lot of ideas here on the side board. I have a kinda trivial question: Did she know the Claw Hammer cover of Devo before Kowalskis decided to cover it, too? @JakeGould: "People will always figure out ways to communicate in a way that works for them." Amen. I think of Harold Love's book about "Scribal Publication in Seventeenth-century England." Well into the second century of print technology there were pockets of publication of handwritten documents.
	1:35pm Dean: Red C/Kross, Salvation Army/Three O'Clock...
	1:35pm V Priceless: what's a fax? : )
	1:36pm Dean: Plural of fact
	♥ 1:36pm timurf: Loyal to 'The Royal' we stay!
	1:37pm Cecile: there has been a surge in fine pen and stationery use and making even with email.
	1:37pm Cecile: Yazoo/Yaz
	♥ 1:38pm Michael 98145: a good pen is a pleasure forever
	1:39pm Dean: General Motors/Led Zeppelin [Just kidding.]
	1:39pm Cecile: I am happy they kept making Rotring drawing fountain pens. They are the best!
	1:39pm Cheri Pi: YAY
	1:40pm Dean: I have to agree re: Rezillos.
	1:41pm Dean: Hey, VP, just got an email announcing the top three entries here: https://www.burningshed.com/store/progressive/collection/465/
	1:42pm Cheri Pi: this record meant everything to younger me
	1:44pm JakeGould: I’m picking up drawing again. I work in tech and played around with sketch apps. I hate them and only see them useful if I have no choice. I invested in a few sketch pads and even some speedball pens to get me to create again. Works better for me.
	1:45pm Cecile: I tried a few sketch apps. I either have to use my laptop and a stylus or pen and paper. Too hard on those apps.
	1:46pm V Priceless: @ Dean - yeah, I just saw this yesterday - that upcoming live double dvd will not disappoint!
	1:48pm Cliff: I've been playing with Tilt Brush (3D sketching) a bit but need a lot more practice...
	♥ 1:50pm Rev. Turnip Druid: just here. and yes. Idjit Savant is very nearly perfect.
	1:53pm geezerette: @Jake @Cecile @Cliff I used Flash for illustration which was fun because that's not really what it's for, but you get neuromuscular feedback using markers,pens,brushes etc. against the drag on paper. Great to do both,like knowing more than one language.
	1:53pm Cheri Pi: I've always gravitated to talent "management"
	1:54pm Cheri Pi: PAPA!
	1:55pm jmignault: @geezerette: Me too. I like using both apps like Paper and Sketchbook, but there's nothing like mark-making on a physical surface
	♥ 1:56pm Rev. Turnip Druid: PI. C. DK. FOKES.
	1:56pm Cheri Pi: the 90s were a blur, 70s & 80's bands had peaked and it really depressed me.
	1:56pm geezerette: This is a great interview!!! @jmignault: :) !!!!
	1:57pm Dean: I read Fanfare reviews cover to cover during the '90s. That's when my classical collection exploded, relatively speaking.
	1:58pm Cecile: I listened to rap, jazz and GBV in the 90s. I was saddened by much rock music.
	♥ 1:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: The '90s barely existed. If it wasn't for AmRep releases & psytrance, I would have checked out entirely...
	1:59pm Cecile: AmRep had some nice moments.
	1:59pm Cecile: And people like Chris Knox always were doing interesting things.
	2:00pm Cheri Pi: my 90s were a Digable Planets/Billy Childish void with a dash of Esquivel.
	♥ 2:00pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Was in Tucson for the decade. Some AmRep tours came to town (cows, supernova, etc) ... and that first Cluster tour, natch..
	2:02pm Wild Neil: PEACE all. I used to go to Blues Travelers gigs at Mondo Perso, Mondo Kane, Nightinggales and Wetlands for their first album release party (went until 4am)...This was the early 90's...
	2:03pm geezerette: @Cheri Pi: sounds about right!
	2:03pm jmignault: @geezerette: although I guess a phone is a physical surface too, though you probably shouldn't use a paintbrush on it :)
	2:03pm Dean: Well, there were a handful of Zeke records, too.
	♥ 2:04pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @Neil: whoa, Wetlands... I hit that once, made the journey from DC to see Hawkwind there (89 or 90?). Quite a spot..
	2:04pm Cecile: There is a club in my old hometown which is modern industrial and quite excellent. It is a contrast to the rec room style bars in the rest of town.
	2:05pm JakeGould: @WildNeil: Wow. Might have crossed paths. I had friends into that whole Blues Traveller/Spin Doctors world… Not my scene but I went out with them a few times. Remember seeing Joan Osbourne at Mondo Kane. Another planet.
	2:05pm Cheri Pi: I've tried to do that in Cincinnati, but its too polarized.
	2:05pm geezerette: @jmignault:hahaha! :D
	2:06pm Dean: Damn straight! No entitlement to an opinion. You gotta work for it!
	2:06pm JakeGould: I saw Beat Happening and Nation of Ulysses (I think? Or an early Make*Up lineup) at Wetlands back in the day.
	2:06pm Wild Neil: @REV-you are my new hero for seeing HAWKWIND at WETLANDS. @Jake Gould-I dated John Popper's sister a couple times....and they played in our attic (or my friend's attic) in Syracuse one time....they were from Princeton.Yeah, spin doctors they were all roomates or something...
	2:07pm Cecile: I'm glad you are going out on a limb Lindsay! That is so cool.
	2:07pm JakeGould: Excellent interview.
	♥ 2:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Architectural Metaphor opened that Hawkwind gig, if I remember correctly. Also "quite" memorable was the downstairs @ Wetlands that evening...
	2:09pm Cecile: that is very true.
	2:09pm Wild Neil: @Rev-downstairs at Wetlands...yeah I remember that too!
	2:09pm V Priceless: all failure reserved for the program after this one...
	2:10pm Wild Neil: Cool interview!!!!!
	2:11pm Cecile: my friend is telling his young daughter - "The Internet hates women. Please be careful." It's really sad.
	2:11pm Wild Neil: Violent trolls suck. I am so sorry you have to deal with cretins like that Lindsey!
	2:12pm JakeGould: The Internet just amplifies what already exists; women get treated like crap whenever opportunity strikes.
	♥ 2:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: fiddy!
	2:13pm Dean: Current NYT: "Social Media, Where Sports Fans Congregate and Misogyny Runs Amok"
	♥ 2:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: i'm just a couple years behind you... need to brainstorm an apocalyptic party...
	2:14pm JakeGould: Before the Internet was really a thing in the 1990s, I remember watching local scene promoters in the midwest kill off house parties and such. The reality is if all tech were to disappear right now, human garbage would figure out some way to “troll” others in the non-tech world as well.
	2:15pm Dean: Er, since when have we lived in a non-tech world? [Not trolling, I swear.]
	2:15pm Wild Neil: I would nominate Killing Joke's song "Eighties"...kinda forgotten...
	2:16pm JakeGould: @Dean: If we went back thousands of years to a cave and someone in the cave figured out a nice way to do something with the twigs that were collected, some other asshole in the cave would come along and ruin it. Human nature. We’re animals in ways people sometimes don’t get.
	2:17pm Wild Neil: @Diane-if you see Ken tell him I am sorry I tried his patience yesterday. Apparently I was tedious.
	2:17pm Dean: Clarification: When I ranted against "technology, technology, technology," I was hammering away at digital technology, Moore's Law, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, etc., but also assembly lines, Fordism, Taylorism...
	2:17pm JakeGould: The wheel really ruined the world of schlepping.
	2:18pm Dean: That makes sense, though, @JakeGould, because animals are animals in ways they don't get.
	2:18pm Dean: Exactly! We really do need to reinvent the wheel.
	2:20pm V Priceless: I'd settle for reinventing the wheelie
	2:20pm Dean: Heh, or the Wheel-O.
	2:21pm V Priceless: ha
	2:22pm V Priceless: peter hammill should cover this
	2:22pm Polyus: Remember when this was used to sell car insurance?
	2:24pm Dean: Hammill's version would be "I Want to Destroy Double You."
	2:27pm Cheri Pi: Hey everyone, can we get some good vibes out there for listener B23? He's in the ICU right now following emergency surgery to remove a vital part of his body after suffering for decades. He's recovering but it's going to be a long process.
	2:27pm geezerette: Love X
	2:27pm Cecile: YES. Get well B23!!!
	2:28pm Dean: The ICU, ugh. Emitting good vibes...
	♥ 2:29pm Michael 98145: Salute to B23
	2:29pm geezerette: Feel better and get healthy B23!
	2:30pm Polyus: Ommmmmmmmm (healing frequency)
	2:30pm V Priceless: Sending Healing Rock & Roll Energy to you, B23! Feel better!
	2:30pm Cliff: Well wishes to B23
	♥ 2:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Je Suis B23!
	2:31pm Cecile: OH. I lamed out and missed Kvelertak because my friend was in a minor car accident. Sigh. And I had homework.
	♥ 2:33pm coelacanth: healing vibes to B23. hang in there.
	2:34pm Cecile: I feel you, Lindsay
	2:37pm Cecile: but they didn't really escape it.
	2:37pm Cecile: bingo!
	2:38pm geezerette: worked for Blondie cause she was tough but still could be packaged as sex object.
	♥ 2:38pm chris: Love and speedy healing to B23!
	♥ 2:40pm chris: really loving the interview... thanks so much, Lindsay! thanks for your time and for sharing so much of your world with us... you're a real hero. Thanks for bringing her to the air, Diane!
	2:40pm Cecile: scrawl got f'd over that way. Great band period.
	2:41pm Cheri Pi: I hope you got some powerful "supplements" B23
	2:42pm Cheri Pi: Oh no Cecile! that suckkkks. Is your friend ok? Is Kvelertak ok?
	🎸 ♥ 2:42pm Ken From Hyde Park: B1 to B22 and B24 and on are counting on you, B23. Get well soon.
	2:43pm Cecile: Kvelertak are probably fine. My friend is OK. But I think he should stop driving. He's a really distracted driver.
	2:44pm Cecile: I dunno. I found X kind of not real dynamic in concert.
	2:44pm Cecile: Ginger from the Wildhearts gives great interviews.
	2:45pm Cecile: I saw them open for the Darkness. They were pretty great.
	2:45pm Cheri Pi: Oh that's the worst, Mr CP is too, he's always at the body shop getting minor repair work done.
	♥ 2:45pm Sean from Bridgeport: I think the hard sell on X was made with the song Wild Thing.
	2:47pm Cecile: yeah, I am making a rule I am not going to talk to him in the car unless it's absolutely necessary.
	♥ 2:48pm Michael 98145: @Cecile, X at Madame Wong's was pretty in your face dynamic. But we all got older. They say we are all aging at the same rate.
	2:48pm geezerette: Can't believe how great this interview is! Have to listen again & share,(Good things about tech :D !!!)
	2:49pm Cecile: We were going to see the replacements open for them and left 1/2 way through. Felt like they were phoning it in.
	2:49pm Cliff: Yes, this was great listening to, thank you Diane & Lindsey :D
	2:51pm geezerette: ( Yo Cliff! )
	2:52pm Cliff: (geezerette!)
	2:52pm Cheri Pi: Yaah great interview, lots of what she said could have been my life too, except for being a musician and club owner.
	2:53pm Cecile: Female rock fans get it both ways - you're too girly (guys) or not girly enough (women)
	2:54pm Cecile: it's not going to change in my lifetime, if ever.
	2:55pm jmignault: @geezerette: Ditto. What an interesting convo and music.
	2:56pm V Priceless: my kinda band name....fun show, goils...thanks!
	2:56pm Cecile: speaking of the garage rock, the Hives have been ridiculously consistent and get next to no press. I've heard they still put on amazing shows.
	2:57pm Cecile: there are a lot of them on metalsludge.com That's where I heard about them 15 or so years ago.
	🎸 ♥ 2:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks much, DK. One week to Cinco de Mayo!
	♥ 2:58pm coelacanth: Thanks Diane and Thanks Lindsay!
	2:59pm Cecile: I remember this song vividly.
	2:59pm Cecile: great show!
	2:59pm Wild Neil: Alice Cooper+Andy Newman minus The Monkees divided by Frank Zappa
	3:01pm Cecile: WOW, cool guest
	9:55am kittykowalski: Hi guys! Thanks to the most gracious host Diane for having me on. It was really fun and just always good to think about good music and the time and place in which it was created.

	1:22pm Cliff: Wow, I had no idea Moby started out in 80's hardcore...worlds colliding
	1:22pm JakeGould: I do almost think in some areas that are not 100% hick, but not 100% city scenes can form because of a need for local knowledge. Like deep parts of Brooklyn or parts of NJ that are close enough to the PATH to get to “the city” but still a pain.
	1:23pm Cecile: Lindsay is cutting out on my end
	1:24pm Dean: Believe me, there is value to not having photos. For example, I attended every Grateful Dead live show ever, and nobody has the pictures to prove otherwise.
	1:24pm JakeGould: That kind of “final mile” of knowledge can breed scenes. But saying tech is destroying things is regressive… Yeah, I have fond memories of the old ways of trying to be cool, but still… There will always be new things.
	1:24pm geezerette: @Jake:it's a bigger problem than most people are willing to acknowledge. this is what net neutrality was about. there's been so much corporate media consolidation that tech interfaces are extremely mediated. there is a trojan horse aspect even though we all love tech it's important to maintain critical thinking skills.
	1:26pm geezerette: ...also,getting good at things takes time and focus.
	1:27pm Cheri Pi: I never remember dates, I only remember visual cues
	1:28pm Cliff: Heh, I always remember the weather and what the crowd was like, but the date or even what year it was? Nope
	1:28pm geezerette: @Cheri:me too
	1:29pm Cecile: me too for the most part, Pi.
	1:29pm JakeGould: Eh, I’m not too worried. Forget about net neutrality; posting your own personal blog nowadays is impractical because of many different reasons… It’s almost at the point where coming up with some print zine/blog hybrid is worth it for some things. In the art world zine (printed) are making a comeback. People will always figure out ways to communicate in a way that works for them.
	1:32pm geezerette: all I'm saying is that history is important and being aware of macro is as important as micro. my bias,I'll admit.
	1:33pm Dean: Lindsey is obviously sparking a lot of ideas here on the side board. I have a kinda trivial question: Did she know the Claw Hammer cover of Devo before Kowalskis decided to cover it, too? @JakeGould: "People will always figure out ways to communicate in a way that works for them." Amen. I think of Harold Love's book about "Scribal Publication in Seventeenth-century England." Well into the second century of print technology there were pockets of publication of handwritten documents.
	1:35pm Dean: Red C/Kross, Salvation Army/Three O'Clock...
	1:35pm V Priceless: what's a fax? : )
	1:36pm Dean: Plural of fact
	♥ 1:36pm timurf: Loyal to 'The Royal' we stay!
	1:37pm Cecile: there has been a surge in fine pen and stationery use and making even with email.
	1:37pm Cecile: Yazoo/Yaz
	♥ 1:38pm Michael 98145: a good pen is a pleasure forever
	1:39pm Dean: General Motors/Led Zeppelin [Just kidding.]
	1:39pm Cecile: I am happy they kept making Rotring drawing fountain pens. They are the best!
	1:39pm Cheri Pi: YAY
	1:40pm Dean: I have to agree re: Rezillos.
	1:41pm Dean: Hey, VP, just got an email announcing the top three entries here: https://www.burningshed.com/store/progressive/collection/465/
	1:42pm Cheri Pi: this record meant everything to younger me
	1:44pm JakeGould: I’m picking up drawing again. I work in tech and played around with sketch apps. I hate them and only see them useful if I have no choice. I invested in a few sketch pads and even some speedball pens to get me to create again. Works better for me.
	1:45pm Cecile: I tried a few sketch apps. I either have to use my laptop and a stylus or pen and paper. Too hard on those apps.
	1:46pm V Priceless: @ Dean - yeah, I just saw this yesterday - that upcoming live double dvd will not disappoint!
	1:48pm Cliff: I've been playing with Tilt Brush (3D sketching) a bit but need a lot more practice...
	♥ 1:50pm Rev. Turnip Druid: just here. and yes. Idjit Savant is very nearly perfect.
	1:53pm geezerette: @Jake @Cecile @Cliff I used Flash for illustration which was fun because that's not really what it's for, but you get neuromuscular feedback using markers,pens,brushes etc. against the drag on paper. Great to do both,like knowing more than one language.
	1:53pm Cheri Pi: I've always gravitated to talent "management"
	1:54pm Cheri Pi: PAPA!
	1:55pm jmignault: @geezerette: Me too. I like using both apps like Paper and Sketchbook, but there's nothing like mark-making on a physical surface
	♥ 1:56pm Rev. Turnip Druid: PI. C. DK. FOKES.
	1:56pm Cheri Pi: the 90s were a blur, 70s & 80's bands had peaked and it really depressed me.
	1:56pm geezerette: This is a great interview!!! @jmignault: :) !!!!
	1:57pm Dean: I read Fanfare reviews cover to cover during the '90s. That's when my classical collection exploded, relatively speaking.
	1:58pm Cecile: I listened to rap, jazz and GBV in the 90s. I was saddened by much rock music.
	♥ 1:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: The '90s barely existed. If it wasn't for AmRep releases & psytrance, I would have checked out entirely...
	1:59pm Cecile: AmRep had some nice moments.
	1:59pm Cecile: And people like Chris Knox always were doing interesting things.
	2:00pm Cheri Pi: my 90s were a Digable Planets/Billy Childish void with a dash of Esquivel.
	♥ 2:00pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Was in Tucson for the decade. Some AmRep tours came to town (cows, supernova, etc) ... and that first Cluster tour, natch..
	2:02pm Wild Neil: PEACE all. I used to go to Blues Travelers gigs at Mondo Perso, Mondo Kane, Nightinggales and Wetlands for their first album release party (went until 4am)...This was the early 90's...
	2:03pm geezerette: @Cheri Pi: sounds about right!
	2:03pm jmignault: @geezerette: although I guess a phone is a physical surface too, though you probably shouldn't use a paintbrush on it :)
	2:03pm Dean: Well, there were a handful of Zeke records, too.
	♥ 2:04pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @Neil: whoa, Wetlands... I hit that once, made the journey from DC to see Hawkwind there (89 or 90?). Quite a spot..
	2:04pm Cecile: There is a club in my old hometown which is modern industrial and quite excellent. It is a contrast to the rec room style bars in the rest of town.
	2:05pm JakeGould: @WildNeil: Wow. Might have crossed paths. I had friends into that whole Blues Traveller/Spin Doctors world… Not my scene but I went out with them a few times. Remember seeing Joan Osbourne at Mondo Kane. Another planet.
	2:05pm Cheri Pi: I've tried to do that in Cincinnati, but its too polarized.
	2:05pm geezerette: @jmignault:hahaha! :D
	2:06pm Dean: Damn straight! No entitlement to an opinion. You gotta work for it!
	2:06pm JakeGould: I saw Beat Happening and Nation of Ulysses (I think? Or an early Make*Up lineup) at Wetlands back in the day.
	2:06pm Wild Neil: @REV-you are my new hero for seeing HAWKWIND at WETLANDS. @Jake Gould-I dated John Popper's sister a couple times....and they played in our attic (or my friend's attic) in Syracuse one time....they were from Princeton.Yeah, spin doctors they were all roomates or something...
	2:07pm Cecile: I'm glad you are going out on a limb Lindsay! That is so cool.
	2:07pm JakeGould: Excellent interview.
	♥ 2:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Architectural Metaphor opened that Hawkwind gig, if I remember correctly. Also "quite" memorable was the downstairs @ Wetlands that evening...
	2:09pm Cecile: that is very true.
	2:09pm Wild Neil: @Rev-downstairs at Wetlands...yeah I remember that too!
	2:09pm V Priceless: all failure reserved for the program after this one...
	2:10pm Wild Neil: Cool interview!!!!!
	2:11pm Cecile: my friend is telling his young daughter - "The Internet hates women. Please be careful." It's really sad.
	2:11pm Wild Neil: Violent trolls suck. I am so sorry you have to deal with cretins like that Lindsey!
	2:12pm JakeGould: The Internet just amplifies what already exists; women get treated like crap whenever opportunity strikes.
	♥ 2:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: fiddy!
	2:13pm Dean: Current NYT: "Social Media, Where Sports Fans Congregate and Misogyny Runs Amok"
	♥ 2:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid: i'm just a couple years behind you... need to brainstorm an apocalyptic party...
	2:14pm JakeGould: Before the Internet was really a thing in the 1990s, I remember watching local scene promoters in the midwest kill off house parties and such. The reality is if all tech were to disappear right now, human garbage would figure out some way to “troll” others in the non-tech world as well.
	2:15pm Dean: Er, since when have we lived in a non-tech world? [Not trolling, I swear.]
	2:15pm Wild Neil: I would nominate Killing Joke's song "Eighties"...kinda forgotten...
	2:16pm JakeGould: @Dean: If we went back thousands of years to a cave and someone in the cave figured out a nice way to do something with the twigs that were collected, some other asshole in the cave would come along and ruin it. Human nature. We’re animals in ways people sometimes don’t get.
	2:17pm Wild Neil: @Diane-if you see Ken tell him I am sorry I tried his patience yesterday. Apparently I was tedious.
	2:17pm Dean: Clarification: When I ranted against "technology, technology, technology," I was hammering away at digital technology, Moore's Law, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, etc., but also assembly lines, Fordism, Taylorism...
	2:17pm JakeGould: The wheel really ruined the world of schlepping.
	2:18pm Dean: That makes sense, though, @JakeGould, because animals are animals in ways they don't get.
	2:18pm Dean: Exactly! We really do need to reinvent the wheel.
	2:20pm V Priceless: I'd settle for reinventing the wheelie
	2:20pm Dean: Heh, or the Wheel-O.
	2:21pm V Priceless: ha
	2:22pm V Priceless: peter hammill should cover this
	2:22pm Polyus: Remember when this was used to sell car insurance?
	2:24pm Dean: Hammill's version would be "I Want to Destroy Double You."
	2:27pm Cheri Pi: Hey everyone, can we get some good vibes out there for listener B23? He's in the ICU right now following emergency surgery to remove a vital part of his body after suffering for decades. He's recovering but it's going to be a long process.
	2:27pm geezerette: Love X
	2:27pm Cecile: YES. Get well B23!!!
	2:28pm Dean: The ICU, ugh. Emitting good vibes...
	♥ 2:29pm Michael 98145: Salute to B23
	2:29pm geezerette: Feel better and get healthy B23!
	2:30pm Polyus: Ommmmmmmmm (healing frequency)
	2:30pm V Priceless: Sending Healing Rock & Roll Energy to you, B23! Feel better!
	2:30pm Cliff: Well wishes to B23
	♥ 2:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Je Suis B23!
	2:31pm Cecile: OH. I lamed out and missed Kvelertak because my friend was in a minor car accident. Sigh. And I had homework.
	♥ 2:33pm coelacanth: healing vibes to B23. hang in there.
	2:34pm Cecile: I feel you, Lindsay
	2:37pm Cecile: but they didn't really escape it.
	2:37pm Cecile: bingo!
	2:38pm geezerette: worked for Blondie cause she was tough but still could be packaged as sex object.
	♥ 2:38pm chris: Love and speedy healing to B23!
	♥ 2:40pm chris: really loving the interview... thanks so much, Lindsay! thanks for your time and for sharing so much of your world with us... you're a real hero. Thanks for bringing her to the air, Diane!
	2:40pm Cecile: scrawl got f'd over that way. Great band period.
	2:41pm Cheri Pi: I hope you got some powerful "supplements" B23
	2:42pm Cheri Pi: Oh no Cecile! that suckkkks. Is your friend ok? Is Kvelertak ok?
	🎸 ♥ 2:42pm Ken From Hyde Park: B1 to B22 and B24 and on are counting on you, B23. Get well soon.
	2:43pm Cecile: Kvelertak are probably fine. My friend is OK. But I think he should stop driving. He's a really distracted driver.
	2:44pm Cecile: I dunno. I found X kind of not real dynamic in concert.
	2:44pm Cecile: Ginger from the Wildhearts gives great interviews.
	2:45pm Cecile: I saw them open for the Darkness. They were pretty great.
	2:45pm Cheri Pi: Oh that's the worst, Mr CP is too, he's always at the body shop getting minor repair work done.
	♥ 2:45pm Sean from Bridgeport: I think the hard sell on X was made with the song Wild Thing.
	2:47pm Cecile: yeah, I am making a rule I am not going to talk to him in the car unless it's absolutely necessary.
	♥ 2:48pm Michael 98145: @Cecile, X at Madame Wong's was pretty in your face dynamic. But we all got older. They say we are all aging at the same rate.
	2:48pm geezerette: Can't believe how great this interview is! Have to listen again & share,(Good things about tech :D !!!)
	2:49pm Cecile: We were going to see the replacements open for them and left 1/2 way through. Felt like they were phoning it in.
	2:49pm Cliff: Yes, this was great listening to, thank you Diane & Lindsey :D
	2:51pm geezerette: ( Yo Cliff! )
	2:52pm Cliff: (geezerette!)
	2:52pm Cheri Pi: Yaah great interview, lots of what she said could have been my life too, except for being a musician and club owner.
	2:53pm Cecile: Female rock fans get it both ways - you're too girly (guys) or not girly enough (women)
	2:54pm Cecile: it's not going to change in my lifetime, if ever.
	2:55pm jmignault: @geezerette: Ditto. What an interesting convo and music.
	2:56pm V Priceless: my kinda band name....fun show, goils...thanks!
	2:56pm Cecile: speaking of the garage rock, the Hives have been ridiculously consistent and get next to no press. I've heard they still put on amazing shows.
	2:57pm Cecile: there are a lot of them on metalsludge.com That's where I heard about them 15 or so years ago.
	🎸 ♥ 2:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks much, DK. One week to Cinco de Mayo!
	♥ 2:58pm coelacanth: Thanks Diane and Thanks Lindsay!
	2:59pm Cecile: I remember this song vividly.
	2:59pm Cecile: great show!
	2:59pm Wild Neil: Alice Cooper+Andy Newman minus The Monkees divided by Frank Zappa
	3:01pm Cecile: WOW, cool guest
	9:55am kittykowalski: Hi guys! Thanks to the most gracious host Diane for having me on. It was really fun and just always good to think about good music and the time and place in which it was created.
