	3:16pm Mark in Toronto: @Van Winkle - where are you?
	♥ 3:17pm Bruce S.: one of the things I like about you Ira, you use words like ellipsis
	♥ 3:18pm Roberto: Ellipses? Use them sparingly. They are egregiously misused and overused of late.
	♥ 3:19pm Roberto: And the fakakta stream krapped out again.

	3:23pm Fredericks: When will get to hear the Du with an audible bass?
	♥ 3:23pm Roberto: "Algo más?" Is what your server says after you've finished your meal.
	♥ 3:23pm Hoboken Jack: That there was a tilde.
	♥ 3:23pm Gaylord Fields: Ese es un acento diacrítico monosílabo.
	♥ 3:23pm Ira: It's true, Roberto, I overuse the ellipsis. My #1 fault!
	♥ 3:24pm Roberto: A lot of folks seem to be afraid to put a period to their thoughts. It's okay, you can always start another sentence later.
	3:24pm lepson jooves: maybe we'll get some Great! Society
	3:25pm Van Winkle ;-): @ Mark in hogtown... I'm in East Van...waking and shaking up my neighborhood... ;-)

	♥ 3:28pm the Hurston moor-elf: I'm a semicolon kinda elf, but i'm hoping we see an interrobang before the show is over: en.wikipedia.org...

	3:30pm noisejerk: I apostrophe m not appreciating this theme. Like the idiot I am comma I am doing work in Pages and throwing into a clunky charting system that turns all my "s and other junk into ?s. !&$!

	3:31pm Van Winkle ;-): Hmmm...it's always so tricky trying to decide where to slot !!! when filing one's artists...
	3:32pm egould: More powerpop, more glam. Poof! Todd’s show.
	3:32pm noisejerk: Thanks, "Todd" & "Ken." Thanks, "acting."
	♥ 3:33pm Gaylord Fields: Damn! I was totally looking forward to hearing Tool's "Ænema" to represent the ligature.
	♥ 3:33pm adamdoesit: Ira! What a treat. Who could be diacritical at a time like this?
	3:34pm Victrola Tom: Ira keeping it in the family!

	3:36pm listener monica: that version of 53rd and 3rd I found myself wishing I could write a song like that.

	3:42pm Pomme d'Or: Hello Ira. Nice show
	♥ 3:43pm Gaylord Fields: @Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Better not break it to Georgia about Blondie.
	♥ 3:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'm an ellipsis addict ...no Buzzcocks song that I'm aware of...
	3:44pm Georgia: Blondie is a group the t-shirt doesn't lie.
	♥ 3:46pm Bruce S.: I've Just been calling them Dots all these years, but now I know...Ellipsis
	3:46pm Van Winkle ;-): Thanks Ira, for the "intro" to Phil Seymour...a new to moi, moi, moi artist...
	♥ 3:46pm Franco Twinkie: Hello again IRA!
	3:47pm Fredericks: Like a bulldozer mowing through a field of chickens, gently.
	♥ 3:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Georgia is a former Republic - which as we know is always on PaulMcCartney's mind.
	3:48pm Victrola Tom: Ira, Toddophonic-Todd is not a person, it’s a cult.
	♥ 3:48pm Gaylord Fields: @Van Winkle ;-): If you liked that, may I recommend also checking out Phil Seymour's partner in musical crime Dwight Twilley, if you are not familiar?
	3:49pm Greg g: Wonderful to have you back on the FMU airwaves Mr. K!
	♥ 3:51pm Ira: Really glad to be here, Greg g.
	3:52pm judy from croton: Oh how could I forgotten about this song? Wondrous thing. Thanks Ira
	3:52pm Fredericks: She's Not Worried sounded lovely.
	3:52pm Mark in Toronto: @Gaylord: think back to when you first heard I'm On Fire. The perfect song.
	♥ 3:55pm Bruce S.: is that a laugh track or is it an actual laughing person
	♥ 3:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Mark in Toronto: One of my all-time favorite songs, indeed, which typically gets a great reaction when I've played it out in Da Club! Also, happy belated Canada Day!
	♥ 3:56pm Hubig Pie: I have FMU on whether I'm listening or not
	3:58pm Mark in Toronto: @Ira: Do you know the Orbison song Southbound Jericho Parkway? I think you'd really like it. Originally just a B-side.
	4:00pm Mark in Toronto: Thanks Gaylord. Your comments are never throw-aways, always insightful.
	♥ 4:00pm Ira: I don't, Mark, but I will soon.
	4:02pm Wendy: great show @Ira.
	♥ 4:02pm Chili MacPagoda: Embarrassed to admit but I use a “smart” speaker to listen to radio. Most of the time I can say, “Hey asterisk play WFMU”. Easy peasy, there’s my favorite station. Does the station have key commands for the other streams yet? I’ve asked asterisk to play Rock N Soul or Give The Drummer but it never works. Just curious!
	♥ 4:04pm Gaylord Fields: @Mark @Ira: Todd-o-phonic Todd himself once played "Southbound Jericho Parkway" for me, and he described the experience of hearing it for the first time as when you're driving through the Lincoln Tunnel at a crawl and it's been what seems like 10 minutes, and then you finally spot the New York/New Jersey borderline ahead that's halfway through the tunnel. He may have meant that as a compliment.
	4:04pm noisejerk: Lenny the C was definitely an elliptical thinker and speaker (convenient call back!). There's a certain strain of drummers... (not Georgia...), who have a certain way with conversation... and dedication to music idears and fandoms. He turned me on to Toad Liquor, a since defunct Southern Lord band. Lenny wasn't too connected the Fleshtones trip (I think they were HS classmates??). Me? I love me some tones and toads.
	4:04pm Van Winkle ;-): I'm currently living in what's becoming a "new kind" of neighborHOod...never knew there was so much demand for cosmetic dentistry; pedicures; waxing salons; & hustle & spin "establishments"...
	♥ 4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Best version CatStevensSong.
	♥ 4:06pm Hubig Pie: My fave Yousef song
	♥ 4:06pm Franco Twinkie: I just went to my OLD neighborhood. I drove by the house where I use to buy illegal fireworks when I was kid. Ah, the memories!
	♥ 4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Decca's choice over Beatles ...gotta get songs somewhere :D ...
	4:06pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: The genius of Cat Stevens
	♥ 4:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they lived closer to the Label :) ...
	4:07pm Van Winkle ;-): So...any experts out there...is that a block or cow bell on the current tune with the whistling bits!?!
	♥ 4:08pm Pedro in Arlington: Happy belated Bobby Bonilla Day, Ira. Drinks are on Steve Cohen.
	4:08pm Mark in Toronto: Sounds more like a wood block.
	4:08pm chris_in_space: The frisbees in Toronto’s Bellwoods Park are flyin’ to the sounds of this great show! Good to hear ya, @Ira!
	♥ 4:09pm Bruce S.: oh yeah Ira, Buck is the Man
	4:09pm Libby’s Mom: Great tunes as always, thank you Ira. Just came across LA dj Jo la Tengo. Heard of him?
	4:10pm Mark in Toronto: @Chris: good, we need more Canadians. Go Trinity Bellwoods!
	4:11pm dano59: It’s! many thanks. I heard the Jags’ cover of HCMB last night for the first time. Epiphanies where you find them.
	4:12pm Mark in Toronto: @Gaylord: The specific tunnel references are a bit lost on me, but I know what you mean. Sweeping orchestral sound. Who worked on that? Someone like Bergen White?
	♥ 4:12pm John L: Love Pork. I first heard one of their songs, Wanna Ride, covered by the Silos, then backtracked from there.
	4:13pm dano59: Franco I’ve got some pre-pandemic fireworks here if you want to come over
	4:13pm Andres: Eleventh Dream Day everyday!
	4:14pm chris_in_space: @Mark in Toronto holla!
	4:16pm Mike W: happy for this show today
	4:17pm clarke: howdy from new orleans!!
	4:19pm yippie: once my friends crashed a car driving to a concert in maine, and the nurses at the hospital bought the rest of their acid
	♥ 4:20pm Ira: Don't tell DLR I started his song at the wrong speed.
	4:21pm Fredericks: David Lee Roth? I had no idea.
	4:21pm Mike W: Uh, oh man, I’m sorry, I uh...I just texted him
	♥ 4:21pm Chili MacPagoda: Here’s an excellent interview with Steve Boone, stumbled across it a little while ago. Worth a read: pleasekillme.com...
	4:23pm Georgia: Yes! Johnny Clarke!
	♥ 4:24pm DonJuanTijuana: David Lee Roth goes reggae?
	♥ 4:24pm Hubig Pie: Second version I hear of this Barbara Lynn tune 2-day on this here station
	4:24pm Andres: Love this!
	♥ 4:25pm Ira: @Hubig Pie: oops! I don't really listen to FMU all that much.
	♥ 4:26pm Hubig Pie: Ira, I think it was on Drummer stream so technically not the same station
	♥ 4:26pm Ira: Hang on! I withdraw the oops. As long as it was a different version. You can't hear If You Should Lose Me enough.
	♥ 4:27pm chresti: Johnny Clarke! Such a great voice.
	♥ 4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always thot uterine contractions might be one of the few physical hazards of LSD - but not taking my own word on that...
	4:29pm noisejerk: DLR spin makes me wonder which VH mach 1 covers might have happened during Chanukah shows.
	♥ 4:29pm Bruce S.: haha, thats great Rev Rab
	♥ 4:29pm JG: Later period Elvis country is so under appreciated
	4:29pm DG: That DLR track is great, didn't even realize it was him (from the same EP his cover hits of the Beach Boys & Louis Prima came from). He really could've switch directions and made an interesting album of covers, acoustic stuff, etc. but he seemed happy w/doing the same over-the-top shtick all the time. Now that he's "retired" (I think) wonder if he'll do that.
	4:30pm clarke: holy shit ronnie tutt!!
	4:31pm DG: I mean, even Van Halen covered an old jazz tune ("Big Bad Bill..."), & an album of stuff like that might make people reconsider DLR & his versatility.
	♥ 4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...lysergic acid of course derived from ergot - has relations to adrenaline & LSD was discovered in the process of researching potential migraine treatments ...turns out with Humans, chemically fooling around with the Flight or Fight chemistry this way has interesting effects on Awareness...
	♥ 4:32pm Ira: @noisejerk: Unless I'm forgetting something, Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love is the only one, and even that more often in the Minutemen's arrangement.
	♥ 4:33pm chresti: Chromosome damage to the developing fetus is a concern? RevRab@4:27
	4:33pm clarke: don't you fret, Groovies!!
	4:33pm chris_in_space: Agreed @JG and @DG. You have to think he did something in a reggae style. Can’t you just hear it now? I mean…
	♥ 4:34pm PaulRobeson1922: Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi
	4:34pm chris_in_space: DLR that is. Elvis too, I suppose.
	4:34pm Georgia: @Clarke: Ronnie Tutt, right on!
	4:34pm clarke: never ceases to amaze me.
	♥ 4:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: chresti - separate from that (credible - or otherwise) - hormonal contractions. Hormonal effects related to blood vessel contraction (headaches) & relating more to the pupil dilation & the like.
	4:35pm Mark in Toronto: You can really hear the brothers in the Dils becoming Rank and File.
	4:36pm Van Winkle ;-): Yeah, Yeah, Yeah ...the Kinman bros!!! Sadly...Tony passed in '18...I believe...truly one of my favorite bands of ALL Time!!! Thanks Ira...
	♥ 4:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...probly an effect not especially notable in most cases @ typical doses - &tc. ...
	♥ 4:37pm efd: late to the party, but glad to finally be here for part II of this weekend's Irathon!
	4:37pm clarke: hello evan D!!
	♥ 4:37pm patrick321: Hey Ira and all.

	♥ 4:42pm Barefoot Jimmy G: Awesome, Ira! Thanks for the Dils!
	4:43pm clarke: wow - con playboy
	♥ 4:43pm chresti: Wow that intro
	4:44pm egould: En Espanol! Mucho sabroso!
	4:44pm Pomme d'Or: Eso sí que es! Me gusta mucho
	♥ 4:44pm Bruce S.: unzipper the strings of my kite
	♥ 4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: From mishearing 'Lucy in the Sky' - which is charming.
	♥ 4:45pm efd: @Bruce S Glad to hear that, I'm really enjoying that time slot myself! Hopefully the great Freedman in the sky will see fit to keep me there when the schedule changes again.
	4:45pm Ignore Function: This ranks up there with The Silicon Teens version of Judy in Disguise.
	♥ 4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thoroughly enjoying the EFD Show Wed.s in the A.M. - a week late in Archves - so I can catch MaryWing on the DrummerStream in the Live time slot...
	4:49pm Andres: No bad versions!
	4:49pm egould: @efd really enjoyed waking up on the West Coast (Seattle) to your radio show. 6am Thursday will never be the same.

	5:03pm clarke: i saw dr. ike walking his salukis in coliseum square in spring, but have not yet connected with him, as i have been out of town.
	5:03pm Late Bloomer: Discovered Tommy recently (last year or so). That voice! So good
	5:04pm Late Bloomer: So glad to hear hear you on the radio again ira. Making my weekend 😎
	♥ 5:07pm LazArchives: The WFMU audience has missed you IRA!
	5:09pm Fredericks: Aerostar...? If this is not an NRBQ song, it should be.
	5:11pm clarke: that "run and get the..." part always screws me up!
	♥ 5:11pm Chili MacPagoda: Ace & Bev are just the ultimate rock rhythm duo, tied in my mind with Moon & The Ox.
	5:12pm egould: So jangly! Love this!
	5:12pm clarke: agree, chili!
	♥ 5:13pm dave miss: Love Dr. Ira and Schmoo

	♥ 5:15pm Chili MacPagoda: Yeah play it again!
	♥ 5:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love PinUps.
	♥ 5:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...as sort of a broad statement...
	5:17pm Van Winkle ;-): My first Bowie vinyl purchase as a teen was a used copy of Pinups...it was the cheapest in the bin...and there wasn't too much jingle in my pockets...back in the day...
	♥ 5:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...There Went the Night...
	5:18pm clarke: nice segue!!
	♥ 5:19pm Ira: That Rosalyn ending's trickier than the 2+2=? fake ending!

	♥ 5:25pm The Spoony: Thanks for the show, Ira! Such a welcome break from the other guy.
	5:25pm egould: I think I’ll change the strings on my EL-00. It’s a holiday weekend. What the hell?
	5:26pm clarke: Bruce S.: your comment reminds me of this guy at the old Circle Bar, who was always sloshy drunk. he would grab you by the lapels (or where they should be) and ask: Hey, am i havin' a good time?!?
	5:28pm Van Winkle ;-): Heh experts...what did "E" mean back when that fave tune was penned!?! Honest Q...
	5:28pm ChrisB.: Debbie was in the pool supply store where my brother works today.
	♥ 5:29pm dave miss: Hey Clark! Are you up on the Cape?

	♥ 5:32pm dave miss: @clark...did you ever get the sticker I made for the Rock Steady with the pirate skull?
	5:32pm Van Winkle ;-): I'm on a just opened chilled glass of rosé...too much dance action in the kitchen...need to hydrate...
	5:33pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Not that I am actually disputing what you said though.
	5:33pm Late Bloomer: i once heard ira is a milk and gin man
	5:33pm clarke: i did not but have plenty of cases that need stickers!!

	♥ 3:46pm Franco Twinkie: Hello again IRA!
	3:47pm Fredericks: Like a bulldozer mowing through a field of chickens, gently.
	♥ 3:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Georgia is a former Republic - which as we know is always on PaulMcCartney's mind.
	3:48pm Victrola Tom: Ira, Toddophonic-Todd is not a person, it’s a cult.
	♥ 3:48pm Gaylord Fields: @Van Winkle ;-): If you liked that, may I recommend also checking out Phil Seymour's partner in musical crime Dwight Twilley, if you are not familiar?

	3:52pm judy from croton: Oh how could I forgotten about this song? Wondrous thing. Thanks Ira
	3:52pm Fredericks: She's Not Worried sounded lovely.
	3:52pm Mark in Toronto: @Gaylord: think back to when you first heard I'm On Fire. The perfect song.
	♥ 3:55pm Bruce S.: is that a laugh track or is it an actual laughing person
	♥ 3:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Mark in Toronto: One of my all-time favorite songs, indeed, which typically gets a great reaction when I've played it out in Da Club! Also, happy belated Canada Day!
	♥ 3:56pm Hubig Pie: I have FMU on whether I'm listening or not
	3:58pm Mark in Toronto: @Ira: Do you know the Orbison song Southbound Jericho Parkway? I think you'd really like it. Originally just a B-side.
	4:00pm Mark in Toronto: Thanks Gaylord. Your comments are never throw-aways, always insightful.
	♥ 4:00pm Ira: I don't, Mark, but I will soon.
	4:02pm Wendy: great show @Ira.
	♥ 4:02pm Chili MacPagoda: Embarrassed to admit but I use a “smart” speaker to listen to radio. Most of the time I can say, “Hey asterisk play WFMU”. Easy peasy, there’s my favorite station. Does the station have key commands for the other streams yet? I’ve asked asterisk to play Rock N Soul or Give The Drummer but it never works. Just curious!
	♥ 4:04pm Gaylord Fields: @Mark @Ira: Todd-o-phonic Todd himself once played "Southbound Jericho Parkway" for me, and he described the experience of hearing it for the first time as when you're driving through the Lincoln Tunnel at a crawl and it's been what seems like 10 minutes, and then you finally spot the New York/New Jersey borderline ahead that's halfway through the tunnel. He may have meant that as a compliment.
	4:04pm noisejerk: Lenny the C was definitely an elliptical thinker and speaker (convenient call back!). There's a certain strain of drummers... (not Georgia...), who have a certain way with conversation... and dedication to music idears and fandoms. He turned me on to Toad Liquor, a since defunct Southern Lord band. Lenny wasn't too connected the Fleshtones trip (I think they were HS classmates??). Me? I love me some tones and toads.
	4:04pm Van Winkle ;-): I'm currently living in what's becoming a "new kind" of neighborHOod...never knew there was so much demand for cosmetic dentistry; pedicures; waxing salons; & hustle & spin "establishments"...
	♥ 4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Best version CatStevensSong.
	♥ 4:06pm Hubig Pie: My fave Yousef song
	♥ 4:06pm Franco Twinkie: I just went to my OLD neighborhood. I drove by the house where I use to buy illegal fireworks when I was kid. Ah, the memories!
	♥ 4:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Decca's choice over Beatles ...gotta get songs somewhere :D ...
	4:06pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: The genius of Cat Stevens
	♥ 4:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...they lived closer to the Label :) ...
	4:07pm Van Winkle ;-): So...any experts out there...is that a block or cow bell on the current tune with the whistling bits!?!
	♥ 4:08pm Pedro in Arlington: Happy belated Bobby Bonilla Day, Ira. Drinks are on Steve Cohen.
	4:08pm Mark in Toronto: Sounds more like a wood block.
	4:08pm chris_in_space: The frisbees in Toronto’s Bellwoods Park are flyin’ to the sounds of this great show! Good to hear ya, @Ira!
	♥ 4:09pm Bruce S.: oh yeah Ira, Buck is the Man
	4:09pm Libby’s Mom: Great tunes as always, thank you Ira. Just came across LA dj Jo la Tengo. Heard of him?
	4:10pm Mark in Toronto: @Chris: good, we need more Canadians. Go Trinity Bellwoods!
	4:11pm dano59: It’s! many thanks. I heard the Jags’ cover of HCMB last night for the first time. Epiphanies where you find them.
	4:12pm Mark in Toronto: @Gaylord: The specific tunnel references are a bit lost on me, but I know what you mean. Sweeping orchestral sound. Who worked on that? Someone like Bergen White?
	♥ 4:12pm John L: Love Pork. I first heard one of their songs, Wanna Ride, covered by the Silos, then backtracked from there.
	4:13pm dano59: Franco I’ve got some pre-pandemic fireworks here if you want to come over
	4:13pm Andres: Eleventh Dream Day everyday!
	4:14pm chris_in_space: @Mark in Toronto holla!
	4:16pm Mike W: happy for this show today

	4:19pm yippie: once my friends crashed a car driving to a concert in maine, and the nurses at the hospital bought the rest of their acid
	♥ 4:20pm Ira: Don't tell DLR I started his song at the wrong speed.
	4:21pm Fredericks: David Lee Roth? I had no idea.
	4:21pm Mike W: Uh, oh man, I’m sorry, I uh...I just texted him
	♥ 4:21pm Chili MacPagoda: Here’s an excellent interview with Steve Boone, stumbled across it a little while ago. Worth a read: pleasekillme.com...
	4:23pm Georgia: Yes! Johnny Clarke!
	♥ 4:24pm DonJuanTijuana: David Lee Roth goes reggae?
	♥ 4:24pm Hubig Pie: Second version I hear of this Barbara Lynn tune 2-day on this here station
	4:24pm Andres: Love this!
	♥ 4:25pm Ira: @Hubig Pie: oops! I don't really listen to FMU all that much.
	♥ 4:26pm Hubig Pie: Ira, I think it was on Drummer stream so technically not the same station
	♥ 4:26pm Ira: Hang on! I withdraw the oops. As long as it was a different version. You can't hear If You Should Lose Me enough.
	♥ 4:27pm chresti: Johnny Clarke! Such a great voice.
	♥ 4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always thot uterine contractions might be one of the few physical hazards of LSD - but not taking my own word on that...
	4:29pm noisejerk: DLR spin makes me wonder which VH mach 1 covers might have happened during Chanukah shows.
	♥ 4:29pm Bruce S.: haha, thats great Rev Rab
	♥ 4:29pm JG: Later period Elvis country is so under appreciated
	4:29pm DG: That DLR track is great, didn't even realize it was him (from the same EP his cover hits of the Beach Boys & Louis Prima came from). He really could've switch directions and made an interesting album of covers, acoustic stuff, etc. but he seemed happy w/doing the same over-the-top shtick all the time. Now that he's "retired" (I think) wonder if he'll do that.
	4:30pm clarke: holy shit ronnie tutt!!
	4:31pm DG: I mean, even Van Halen covered an old jazz tune ("Big Bad Bill..."), & an album of stuff like that might make people reconsider DLR & his versatility.
	♥ 4:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...lysergic acid of course derived from ergot - has relations to adrenaline & LSD was discovered in the process of researching potential migraine treatments ...turns out with Humans, chemically fooling around with the Flight or Fight chemistry this way has interesting effects on Awareness...
	♥ 4:32pm Ira: @noisejerk: Unless I'm forgetting something, Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love is the only one, and even that more often in the Minutemen's arrangement.
	♥ 4:33pm chresti: Chromosome damage to the developing fetus is a concern? RevRab@4:27
	4:33pm clarke: don't you fret, Groovies!!
	4:33pm chris_in_space: Agreed @JG and @DG. You have to think he did something in a reggae style. Can’t you just hear it now? I mean…
	♥ 4:34pm PaulRobeson1922: Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi
	4:34pm chris_in_space: DLR that is. Elvis too, I suppose.
	4:34pm Georgia: @Clarke: Ronnie Tutt, right on!
	4:34pm clarke: never ceases to amaze me.
	♥ 4:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: chresti - separate from that (credible - or otherwise) - hormonal contractions. Hormonal effects related to blood vessel contraction (headaches) & relating more to the pupil dilation & the like.
	4:35pm Mark in Toronto: You can really hear the brothers in the Dils becoming Rank and File.
	4:36pm Van Winkle ;-): Yeah, Yeah, Yeah ...the Kinman bros!!! Sadly...Tony passed in '18...I believe...truly one of my favorite bands of ALL Time!!! Thanks Ira...
	♥ 4:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...probly an effect not especially notable in most cases @ typical doses - &tc. ...

	♥ 4:44pm Bruce S.: unzipper the strings of my kite
	♥ 4:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: From mishearing 'Lucy in the Sky' - which is charming.
	♥ 4:45pm efd: @Bruce S Glad to hear that, I'm really enjoying that time slot myself! Hopefully the great Freedman in the sky will see fit to keep me there when the schedule changes again.
	4:45pm Ignore Function: This ranks up there with The Silicon Teens version of Judy in Disguise.

	♥ 5:07pm LazArchives: The WFMU audience has missed you IRA!
	5:09pm Fredericks: Aerostar...? If this is not an NRBQ song, it should be.
	5:11pm clarke: that "run and get the..." part always screws me up!
	♥ 5:11pm Chili MacPagoda: Ace & Bev are just the ultimate rock rhythm duo, tied in my mind with Moon & The Ox.
	5:12pm egould: So jangly! Love this!
