	11:01am clarke: yesterday was your DAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY??
	11:01am Listener Baby: Baby 3:16

	11:01am Squints: ok then. heyHEYhey now.
	11:03am Jimmy Wipper: ↳ clarke @11:01 Me too!
	11:03am clarke: wipper - son, how goes??
	11:04am Bob: Nick and Elvis this summer at Meadowbrook music festival outside of Detroit. First saw both there in nineteen hundred and eighty four. That's thirty nine years! Nick blew Elvis away and will again.
	11:04am Jimmy Wipper: All good!
	11:04am clarke: how's ever'thang on Uzzle St?
	11:05am Jimmy Wipper: Just waiting for a double shot of Stinkfinger.

	11:06am listener phat in Lincoln: Morning all
	11:06am clarke: phat phuzz!
	11:07am egould: EC and Nick Lowe on June 9, Woodinville, WA. Pricey tickets.
	11:07am clarke: and then costello made Goodbye Cruel World and lost the plot.
	11:08am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "You Little Fool" by "Elvis Costello" I think it was Christgau or someone similar who took Elvis to task for that major panning effect in "You Little Fool." He was outraged by the sheer sonic trickery of it!
	11:08am Scott from Boston: Tickets are outrageous! Love that Imperial Bedroom though!
	11:08am joe mulligan: Moon Mullican, not related
	11:08am Joey!: Love Little Fool!!
	11:08am Hughie Considine: Hey Clarke!
	11:08am Bob: ↳ clarke @11:07 that was the tour I saw. Elvis seemed to think he was Frank Sinatra. Ring a ding not good
	11:09am clarke: mornin' hugh! howzit in cackalacky??
	11:09am Fred And Alan: Hello Michael. Fred and Alan.
	11:09am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @11:06 Morning Clarke!
	11:10am clarke: ↳ Bob @11:08 he might be the new sinatra, but them songs took a dive - or a dip.
	11:10am Hughie Considine: It's humid as heck and kinda rainy -- should be OK by the time the Dreamville fest kicks off -- they're expecting 100,000 in Raleigh!
	11:10am Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:08 Hughie, he needed to focus on the actual, you know, record. What a great record.
	11:10am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:10 wow! and who's in that fest?
	11:11am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @11:01 ?
	11:11am Hughie Considine: ↳ Squints @11:10 Totally agree -- I adored Imperial Bedroom when it came out though -- I was into excessive production.
	11:11am clarke: baby. Baby? BABY!!!!!
	11:12am Hughie Considine: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:11 OK, Squints, I get your meaning now. Yeah, Xgau was just a heap of opinions and very little about the music.
	11:12am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:11 Imperial B looms large in me legend.
	11:12am Listener Baby: Hey Now!
	11:12am drr: If only all drummers could play like this.
	11:13am clarke: there he is!! how goes in Victorville? snow?
	11:13am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:12 Heh. But are you fussy about your drums?
	11:13am clarke: ↳ drr @11:12 u don't like the shuffle.
	11:14am Listener Baby: Baby 3:16. And God said: Thou shall never miss The Michael Shelley Show
	11:14am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:13 drums are drums - you beat on them!
	11:14am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:10 Usher, Drake, J. Cole and a host of others whose music I wouldn't be able to identify.
	11:15am clarke: ouch!!
	11:15am listener phat in Lincoln: I finally get to see Nick Lowe opening for Elvis Costello in a few weeks.
	11:15am Bob: Ernest Ranglin is God. Tell Clapton fans.
	11:15am Hughie Considine: I won't be there!
	11:15am drr: Nothing wrong with the shuffle...I guess I'm venting about one particular drummer. Never mind.
	11:15am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:15 no Kingsbury Manx?? ha ha.
	11:16am clarke: ridin' in my car? hmm...
	11:16am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:15 Now Clarke, be nice
	11:16am Peter Horvath: Happy Saturday, #1’ers
	11:16am myron feld: You can see Elvis/Nick/Los Straitjackets at a former minor league ballpark in Bridgeport CT (RIP Bluefish!) in the upper deck for $80. No thanks. Last time I saw EC, it was underwhelming. Nick and LS, however, were great last summer.
	11:16am Bob: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:15 That NL/LS act is so on fire right now
	11:16am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Everybody's Talkin'" by "Ernest Ranglin" The Jazz Butcher does a nice "Everybody's Talkin'" too
	11:17am clarke: RIP Bluefish!
	11:18am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Bob @11:16 I really want to see Nick Lowe. I love EC, but for some reason, I'm not quite as excited about him. I hope it's good, as someone mentioned, the tics were expensive.
	11:18am clarke: damn - this guitar!!
	11:18am Cooh John: Hello Michael and #1 fools.
	11:19am HyperDose: Cooh John 😎
	11:19am clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:18 are you kidding?!? both will be fantastic!!
	11:19am clarke: where's the day-drinkin' a-hole ? guy??
	11:19am Moammar: That solo verged into Greg Ginn territory.
	11:20am Bob: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:18 I walked out on Elvis a year or so ago. I'm fingers crossed it will be better in a great outdoor venue. Charlie Sexton adds absolutely nothing to my ears.
	11:20am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @11:19 I'm sure. I really, really dig Nick Lowe.
	11:20am Handy Haversack: Hey now! Michael and all the Shellegamers!
	11:20am clarke: ↳ Bob @11:20 hopefully, EC's latest album will improve thangs.
	11:21am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:20 couldn't get a slip at the dock?
	11:21am ChrisB.: EC seems to come to our area twice a year in one iteration or other.
	11:22am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:21 Getting brunch in, doing dishes, putting in a load of laundry. Do I know how to Saturday or what?
	11:22am clarke: ↳ ChrisB. @11:21 for as much as EC claimed to love nola, he sure hasn't come around since, uh, just post-katrina.
	11:23am nycmusicnerd: Greetings fellow nerds...I AM GOING to see NL/EC at the Beacon on July 12! Might be seeing them in Boston as well.
	11:23am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 handy knows how to live!! bagpipe on the other hand(y)?
	11:23am Bob: I do like that Elvis still hits Encore records for a few hours everytime he comes to Ann Arbor. Still a record nut. He buys a lot of classical records but also anything from punk to Don Rickles albums!
	11:24am nycmusicnerd: I wasn't too impressed with EC either. He seems like he's just phoning it in these days. But NL is always a treat, especially when he's got Los Straitjackets behind him. If you've never seen NL with Los Straitjackets, you've GOT to go! It's not to be missed!
	11:25am listener phat in Lincoln: I think the #1 hits are finishing off this cold I've had the past few days.
	11:25am clarke: hope so!
	11:26am clarke: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Love (demo)" by "Boudleaux And Felice Bry... that was certainly a cold-killer!
	11:26am CalZone!: Curtis!
	11:26am Listener Baby: Umm Speaking of drums..
	11:26am Corey: Morning Michael and listeners from snowy Traverse City, MI!
	11:27am Bob: ↳ nycmusicnerd @11:24 I've seen Nick with LS maybe five times at this point. The last one was just stunning. The best Nick performance i saw him do in the forty years I've been faithfully going.
	11:27am clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @11:26 yes yes.
	11:27am johnk77: dave robinson has a twitter feed twitter.com/Robbo1000
	11:27am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ♄Saturday FMUvianz ~ ⦿Sun in ♈︎Aries, Year of Fire 🐕Dog Ronald Frederick Lane 1 April 1946 – 4 June 1997
	11:28am clarke: 7/10
	11:28am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Michael & all!
	11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:23 And NOW I'm taking a COVID test. Everybody's workin' for the weekend!
	11:28am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Bob @11:27 I think Michael hit the nail on the head last summer when he commented that while they've always been good together, they're really starting to gel now. They really listen to each other when they play. And that makes a huge difference.
	11:29am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 gotta go back to the hospital? if so, i am sorry that has to happen, etc.
	11:30am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:29 Yeah, going back Mon. But also I was out of town and in big crowds and planes so just monitoring daily for a while.
	11:30am clarke: zone 5 will be unattended, next week.
	11:30am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:30 gotcha. sorry about the hospital tho.
	11:31am bobobob plasticland: nobody hates # 1 hits or you!!!!
	11:31am Greg from ZONE 5: Hope you guys like EDM!
	11:31am Bob: I've been off Facebook for going on three years and it's a great place to be. Facebook is 11% less funny without me but I gotta do what's best for me.
	11:31am clarke: ha ha ha. nope.
	11:31am Crei6hton: Morning WFMU
	11:32am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:30 Thanks. Our friend is going to be in there another month, probably, so more visits to come. I'm going to try to go MWTh this week after work, at least for a bit.
	11:32am Squints: I was that way in HS about Skynyrd and Geils because my little brother liked them. Then got to college and realized, "you idiot." Love my bubba. We get along great so long as we don't share a room. 8^)
	11:32am Scott from Boston: Gene’s love letter to the Beatles!
	11:32am Bob: Gene sounds like Eric Carmen
	11:32am listener phat in Lincoln: KISS were partially responsible for my one and only appearance in Billboard magazine
	11:32am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:32 jeez, sorry!
	11:33am Hughie Considine: There's a new documentary about Neil Bogart and Casablanca Records....
	11:33am Listener Baby: Didn’t Paul Lennon write this?
	11:33am clarke: ↳ Song: "See You Tonight" by "KISS" the old E-minor!
	11:33am drr: AAC stream is squirrely today.
	11:33am egould: Stanley/Simmons > Lennon/McCartney
	11:33am myron feld: ↳ Song: "See You Tonight" by "KISS" Eugene "Gene Simmons" Klein is in my sister's high school yearbook. True story.
	11:33am clarke: you had to mention squirrels - now that will wake FuZZ up!
	11:34am nycmusicnerd: ↳ clarke @11:33 Don't you know that it's different for squirrels?
	11:35am Hughie Considine: ↳ myron feld @11:33 I'm sure Eugene was quite the charming rogue!
	11:35am Listener Baby: PS. You on FIRE, Baby.
	11:35am Moammar: ↳ Song: "Nobody's Fool" by "Dan Penn" Best song ever to emanate from Muscle Shoals?
	11:35am myron feld: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:35 It's a pretty dashing portrait.
	11:35am herb.nyc: Righto, the paper had lotsa news. I sent this poem(?) to friends- Really, ya wanna put the President under arrest? Like, did he grab a pussy, did he grab a breast?
	11:36am Bob: Alex Chilton does a great version. No surprise
	11:36am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "See You Tonight" by "KISS" The Kiss song crashed my WoofMoo app!
	11:36am clarke: ↳ nycmusicnerd @11:34 i thought i knew that.
	11:36am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:32 Sorry to hear that
	11:37am clarke: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:36 Woodsy!!
	11:38am rx scabin: Good morning, Michael and Everyone.
	11:38am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ clarke @11:37 Hiya! Happy Saturday, or something. I would say Happy April Fools day but I already fell for one gag in the worst way...
	11:38am clarke: RX how's thangs? hope better!
	11:39am clarke: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:38 do tell!
	11:40am rx scabin: @clarke things are getting much better. Thank you.
	11:40am clarke: that's really good, mate!!
	11:40am Handy Haversack: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:36 Thanks, phat! How's NE treating you?
	11:41am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ clarke @11:39 A local ice cream place (bear in mind that I'm up near Bar Harbor) called Udder Heaven posted an announcement about how they're going to install a giant ferris wheel to give tourists a great view of Acadia National Park at 200 feet...to be called the "Uddah Wheel." Me & Mrs. Woods are like...THAT'S A FANTASTIC IDEA!! ...duh.
	11:42am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:40 I have a cold. Spring is finally almost here, sort of. The government is run by lunatics. I play a lot of guitar lately. That's about it.
	11:43am clarke: ha ha ha!! the missus - obviously in on it!
	11:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:42 Yeah. Math checks out.
	11:43am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Everybody Plays The Fool" by "Chosen Few" Certainly a classic of the "fool" genre - I thought this would pop up, but was expecting the version by Cuba Gooding Sr.
	11:43am clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:42 ignorance is bliss!
	11:43am ?: Damn I was just stuck on the train with some unmasked creep who kept coughing away. It rules that infecting people with disease is a personality trait now. ‘I’ll do me you do you’ 🤡💀
	11:44am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ clarke @11:43 Nope! She read it off of fb to me. Ha! Now our summer is ruined! No Uddah Wheel!!!!!
	11:45am clarke: no Uddah Wheel but, why ask for the moon when we have the stars??
	11:45am Alan in Marblehead: ↳ Song: "Hot Dog" by "Four Shells" Ringo the dog says "Good Morning Michael and everyone. Hot Dog is my FAVORITE song and favorite treat - woof!"
	11:46am clarke: ↳ Alan in Marblehead @11:45 as ringo in Magic Chrisian says: hot doggie??
	11:47am Bob: I'm not really a prankster guy in general but one time on Facebook's NRBQ page I posted a dead link for the raw footage of the film shot for the NRBQ reunion shows that has never been seen. A few people thought it was hilarious.
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ⦿Sun in ♈︎Aries, Year of Earth 🐂Ox Gilbert "Gil" Scott-Heron April 1, 1949 – May 27, 2011
	11:48am Squidocto: Oh-kah-sic? I’ve been saying it wrong all these years?
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Squidocto @11:48 - right ?
	11:48am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Slip Away" by "Ian Lloyd" Ahhh.... a gem from that magical era when you turn on the radio and catch hits by Bram Tchaikovsky and the Records...
	11:49am Hoboken Jack: Hot dog rec noted but... Ok for a mid-50a guy to lie on the grass of Mamaroneck High?
	11:49am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:48 apparently, the REVolution WILL be televised, after all.
	11:50am clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:49 jaaack!! quite enjoyed Quiet Girl - thanks!!
	11:50am HyperDose: ↳ clarke @11:49 The revolution starts the moment that Bob Dylan death tape gets played
	11:50am Handy Haversack: I keep missing the witty banter while I continue to do boring things! Saturday sucks so far!
	11:50am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Squidocto @11:48 I've always said "oh-kay-sic"
	11:50am Squints: The tough part of the show when I need to go the beer fridge for more sodas but don't want to miss any of this.
	11:51am Squints: ↳ Squints @11:50 Piss poor preparation. I'll be right back.
	11:51am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:50 make up your mind, dude! beer or soda?
	11:51am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:50 Actually, on reflection, I think I switch sometimes. Lol.
	11:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Slip Away" by "Ian Lloyd" A Fiorucci suit (?) : images.asos-media.com...$XXL$&wid=513&fit=constrain
	11:51am Hoboken Jack: ↳ clarke @11:50 Hey Clarke!! So glad you liked it!
	11:52am clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:51 yeah, i shed a few tears, there!
	11:53am clarke: then i followed that up with Angela's Ashes (2nd view).. oof!!
	11:53am Red: Loving todays theme.
	11:53am Listener Baby: It’s not how many, but where.
	11:54am clarke: i still contend that costello prank was the best april fool's thang EVER!
	11:55am Hoboken Jack: ↳ Listener Baby @11:53 Oh Baby!!
	11:55am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:51 Heh. "My GOD, man." It's a beer fridge, but sometimes a man's got to know his limitations. I actually don't keep a lot of beer in the house any more except to have around to entertain company. Two beers and it's nap time pretty quickly if I'm not out. So I drink mostly when I'm out.
	11:55am clarke: oh. BABY!!
	11:56am Squints: ↳ Song: "Chain Of Fools" by "Jimmy Brown" G. G. Y.
	11:56am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:55 and for me to use the phrase "soda" - anomaly. being a good suhthun boy, we always say whatev the drink is.
	11:56am Handy Haversack: ↳ Squints @11:55 I drank more beer over the past week than I had since the beginning of the pandemic.
	11:56am prof.fuzz: howdy y'all
	11:57am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:56 G G Sq
	11:57am prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @11:56 dr pepper, man
	11:57am clarke: FuZZZZZZZZZZZ!!! good day, sir!!
	11:57am drr: ↳ clarke @11:56 "Get you a Co-Cola."
	11:57am clarke: he's a pepper!!
	11:58am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:56 Is Loosiania close enough to Texas that everything's a Coke?
	11:58am prof.fuzz: ClarkEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! back atcha! hey dave!
	11:58am clarke: ↳ drr @11:57 now that's chatanoogin'!!
	11:58am Hoboken Jack: ↳ clarke @11:57 Hi Fuzz
	11:58am Handy Haversack: What up, prof.?
	11:58am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:58 naw, we just say whatever the drink is - NOT orange coke.
	11:59am prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:58 hey handy! packing up for an away show in waco this evening.
	11:59am Squints: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:56 Was at a buddy's wedding near Clearwater last weekend. Lotta beer. Whole lotta beer. Got home and detoxed with a bunch of Guinesses.
	11:59am Handy Haversack: And COVID test negative!
	11:59am Bob: We need something to watch. Tried Slower Horses but Gary Oldman's scene chewing is too much for me. Is he a bigger ham than Samuel L. Jackson? Watched the Waco docuseries on Netflix, which is pretty good. Flawed but worth the new footage and reminder of what a crazy story it was
	11:59am clarke: whoohooo!!!
	11:59am prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:59 that's a positive!
	12:00pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Squints @11:59 Strictly medicinal. I'm having the official cocktail of WFMU Saturdays right now -- the Lunkhead. It's last night's one-vodka-soda-too-many stuck in the fridge overnight and then freshened up a mite for a brand new day.
	12:00pm Bob: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:59 Nice work
	12:00pm clarke: i got something pretty cool for FuZZ, this morning. not april fools.
	12:01pm clarke: leftover love.
	12:01pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @12:00 oh. hey!
	12:01pm Jeff The Nerd: Happy Saturday!!!! Always the best with a lil Woof MOO!
	12:01pm Drugthedummer: If you're going to the Beatles est, you MUST interview Glenn Burtnik.
	12:02pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:01 i'll be shipping, this week!
	12:02pm Squints: ↳ Squints @11:59 Probably pints at the pub this afternnon when the Broons are on.
	12:02pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "Slip Away" by "Ian Lloyd" We saw The Smithereens last night (who were great, of course), and DJ Miriam Linna spun this song! A very un-Nortonesque choice but so great.
	12:02pm rx scabin: Thank you, Michael. I am going to visit my mother (94) in the non-Amy Winehouse type rehab.
	12:03pm clarke: so>? the actual subject is the band Van Duren? i'm IN!
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ rx scabin @12:02 all the best, RX!!
	12:03pm Listener Baby: ↳ Bob @11:59 I used see his records all the time in thrift stores. The covers were always so bad, I never thought to buy one. I guess everybody wore tight satin pants back then. You are never too old to learn something.
	12:04pm WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:59 Yay!
	12:04pm Bob: Thanks for the Van Duren tip. Been wanting to see that. What I hate about most music docs is Dave Grohl is always in there.
	12:05pm Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @12:03 tubitv.com...
	12:05pm Squints: ↳ Bob @12:04 Him in particular, or just said ubiquity?
	12:05pm paul: ↳ Bob @12:04 And at every tribute concert.
	12:05pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:05 danke, sir!
	12:06pm Hoboken Jack: Agree, Michael, re: "making of" a documentary. I had a boss years ago who asked us to change something we'd put a lot of effort into. He said no one cares how difficult it was, they just want the finished product. Was annoyed at the time but the lesson has stuck with me.
	12:06pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Song: "Judy" by "dBs, The" bass!
	12:06pm clarke: rigby = drums!! bueno!
	12:07pm Bob: ↳ Squints @12:05 Ubiquity I guess. He seems like a nice guy. I don't know.
	12:07pm clarke: and bass (holder)!!
	12:07pm drr: Did the "making of" doc framing kinda start with Spinal Tap, or were they making fun of it too?
	12:09pm clarke: i wish all drums were Like This!
	12:09pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" by "Bob Seger System, The" We can all go home now!
	12:09pm PatrickMC: Bob Seger super awesome #1
	12:09pm luka: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" by "Bob Seger System, The" by god that’s Clay Pigeon’s music!!
	12:10pm drr: "Just put those claps anywhere, that's great."
	12:10pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" by "Bob Seger System, The" Speaking of drums. God I love this
	12:10pm Bob: Early Bob Seger singles are so great. It's a shame everyone doesn't know. Bob doesn't help by burying this stuff.
	12:10pm drr: These drums are OPPRESSIVE!!
	12:10pm johnk77: grew up in ne ohio but this seger track is part of the reason the rock hall should have been in michigan
	12:11pm Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @12:09 You need this set up: townsquare.media...
	12:11pm clarke: but, yes, the shuffle is in the kick.
	12:11pm jt: Ramblin' Gamblin' Man describes me exactly...minus the rambling and gambling part..you can have your funky world
	12:11pm Squints: ↳ Bob @12:07 I guess if one's making a documentary and is going to feature talking heads, one wants prominent talking heads. And he's sure one. You're right. He's does seem like a regular guy. But we don't really have more than casual interest in what he knows or thinks about any given band except that one. (About which we're of course All. Ears.)
	12:11pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:11 ha ha ha. NOOO!!!
	12:12pm Bob: TWOFER Saturday?
	12:12pm Squints: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" by "Bob Seger System, The" One of those songs I love because there's no mistaking that drum opening. You know from 0:00:01. Another one I don't favorite on the playlist because DUH.
	12:12pm Corey: Seger! Just got out of Denver. Actually pretty nice. Probably less paranoid and weird than a lot of Michigan these days!
	12:12pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" by "Bob Seger System, The" Among the Number Onest of all Number Ones. Glenn Frey on a barely audible acoustic guitar.
	12:12pm Jimmy Wipper: A double shot of Seger!
	12:12pm BobPgh: Not Dave Edmunds??
	12:13pm Squints: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:10 What phat said. Yup.
	12:13pm clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @12:12 but not Stinkfinger??
	12:13pm PatrickMC: I was worried Bob had died when we got a double play
	12:13pm Bob: How did this song get in the pub rock setlists anyway? Rockpile, Eddie and the Hotrods, a bunch of them did it.
	12:13pm drr: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:11 OMG that is great. They must have had a great van.
	12:13pm Jimmy Wipper: ↳ clarke @12:13 It’s not too late!
	12:13pm Moammar: ↳ Song: "Get Out Of Denver" by "Bob Seger" Every time I start digging a Seger song I can't help thinking of his late 70s/early 80s schlock and the glow fades. Still, this is great.
	12:13pm jmd: Dang-heck, Whatta double whammy
	12:14pm Squints: ↳ Moammar @12:13 He did become Middle-Aged Man in no time flat once he made it.
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @12:13 you've called the News Dept!
	12:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Moammar @12:13 Years of "Like a Rock" in car ads was a lot to bear.
	12:15pm Moammar: ↳ Squints @12:14 We've got tonight, Squints.
	12:15pm Daybreak is Curious...: Even people with long hair could be casual victims of the police… I don't like the way you look boy, you better get out of Denver!
	12:15pm Cooh John: I agree, johnk77. Grew up in Toledo. Bob hung around there.
	12:15pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:14 Speaking of ubiquity. Does that mean Grohl is the new Bob Seger?
	12:15pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "The Fool" by "Jimmy Gilmer" Waltz-time covers don't get enough love.
	12:16pm PatrickMC: ↳ Moammar @12:13 Night Moves is great
	12:16pm Bob: Way up firm and high. Bob's high school is just down the road from me. Him and the Stooges
	12:16pm drr: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:11 Also, is that drummer the inspiration for Animal? That collar looks like something they would have had to put a leash on.
	12:16pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ myron feld @12:15 This is disorienting.
	12:16pm Squidocto: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:15 Ouch
	12:17pm Squints: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:14 When he cut the long long hair and started looking like Kenny Rogers the mirror might have told him he needed to sound like that. Although the early Kenny Rogers did make some real innaresting records -- Condition, Something's Burning, Ruby.....
	12:17pm Listener Baby: Jeez Baby. What did have for breakfast this morning?
	12:17pm Squints: ↳ PatrickMC @12:16 Yup. The last really great one.
	12:17pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Squidocto @12:16 It's funny cause it might be true!
	12:17pm Handy Haversack: clarke, you seen Tim lately? I have a PURE MICHIGAN hypothesis I want to run by him.
	12:18pm clarke: THREE bass drums!!
	12:18pm Joey!: Met Ian Lloyd at a Chiller Convention years ago!! What a fantastic guy!!
	12:19pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:17 tim was on EFD's chat.
	12:19pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Joey! @12:18 does he have a Horror connection? Or was he there as a fan?
	12:20pm drr: ↳ Squints @12:17 Ernie K-Doe, when he was still around and "running" his bar (with a lot of help from his wife Antoinette), would sometimes make the whole place be quiet and listen to Kenny sing "The Gambler". I tell you, I reconsidered Mr. Rogers from then on, and now really appreciate his work. It's nice to see him with Lionel Richie, who wrote one of his biggest hits. Kenny Rogers is good.
	12:20pm Squints: ↳ Song: "Mohair Sam" by "Peggy Lee" Makes you wish Peggy Lee had been around to do some "Soul Of Vh-1" like Tom Jones. Ponder Peggy in a bar belting r'n'b covers.
	12:20pm clarke: boin, dave, boin!!
	12:21pm johnk77: ↳ Cooh John @12:15 grew up in mansfield w/music explosion, sir tim & the royals, ohio express etc.
	12:21pm Squints: ↳ drr @12:20 Yep. Later stuff is just not my bag, is all. I also prefer Waylon's more bompy version of "Lucille." But Waylon makes everything better.
	12:22pm clarke: also, if you notice in that photo there are a bunch of drums melded together up on the ceiling of the stage.
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Squints @12:21 IT'S NOT MY BAG, BABY!!!
	12:23pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:22 No, those are his extra toms!! They've added some curvy parts to direct the sound toward the audience.
	12:23pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @12:22 looks like drum head on HVAC ductwork!
	12:23pm jmd: Always a #1 boost when you start with the chorus.
	12:23pm Listener Baby: Was Levon Helm in this band, Baby?
	12:23pm drr: ↳ drr @12:23 That poor bass player.
	12:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "If You Really Want To Hurt Somebody" by "Pencils,... ...okay Pencils ...you've made your point...
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:23 yeah not sure what's going on there.
	12:24pm johnk77: thanks for the drum photo selecter:> looks like a live gig i see at least 4 bass drums
	12:24pm Squints: ↳ drr @12:23 There's such a thing as extra toms? Can there ever be too many?
	12:25pm clarke: yes.
	12:25pm Sam: ↳ Song: "If You Really Want To Hurt Somebody" by "Pencils,... This might’ve been a bigger hit if the sound was less muddy and the instrumentals less stark.
	12:25pm drr: ↳ johnk77 @12:24 Reminds me of seeing "The Misfits" (or an approximation of same opening for Gwar) and they had a huge marching band drum as the bass, and floor toms mounted on the kit as rack toms. My god it looked so stupid.
	12:25pm Gaston: Nice music, strange lyrics
	12:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Tell All The Fools" by "Dennis Diken With Bell So... + DennisD Time ! +
	12:26pm drr: ↳ Squints @12:24 idk, ask Terry Bozzio.
	12:26pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:25 i ain't no goddam sonofabitch!
	12:27pm clarke: (actually, i am).
	12:27pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:26 great goddam song. I actually got to sing it from the drummer throne with my silly band in Austin.
	12:28pm Handy Haversack: Some friends recently got squeezed out of a practice space by the ever-expanding kit of the drummer from [a famous nineties band]. It was pretty comical.
	12:28pm clarke: good tune.
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:28 ha ha ha
	12:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ drr @12:26 Yeah but Terry should have all the drums he wants.
	12:28pm drr: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:28 oh come on, you can't leave us hanging like that. A hint at least.
	12:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:28 ...saving for the SpinalTap sequel...
	12:29pm PatrickMC: Another twofer. Awesome
	12:29pm clarke: are these handclaps random enough for you dave?
	12:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Love's Made A Fool Of You" by "Buddy Holly" Buddy Holly Lives
	12:30pm turtles: I’m sad how few listens The Pencils have in Spotify.
	12:30pm HyperDose: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:29 On an island with Biggie and Tupac
	12:30pm Handy Haversack: ↳ drr @12:28 It became clear and vivid: time's up.
	12:30pm Squints: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:29 Well, if he's a drummer, that'll be a cameo.
	12:30pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Love's Made A Fool Of You" by "Buddy Holly" Interesting how Bobby Fuller drained a little of the Bo Diddley and made it more Holly
	12:31pm Moammar: ↳ PatrickMC @12:30 This isn't the version I'm used to. Maybe a later overdub version?
	12:32pm clarke: Leo Nocentelli is again doing a set at JazzFest - april 26th 2pm
	12:32pm Listener Baby: ↳ PatrickMC @12:30 Keen insight, Moamar.
	12:32pm egould: Fool Me by Smokescreens LA A Fool Like You by The Last Sunset’s Fool by Deaf Wish Fool Is A Man by Chesterfields Fools Noone by Penicillin Baby Life’s Greatest Fool by Gene Clark Some Kinda Fool by Sneakers Who Do You Wanna Fool by Hard-ons Fool by ALL
	12:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ HyperDose @12:30 ...I thot it was upsidedown in one of the YoungOnes' bedrooms - but I'll entertain theories...
	12:32pm drr: ↳ Song: "Educated Fool" by "Eddie Hill" This "Educated Fool" is like "Christmas Moppers" by Sparrow, at least that seems like the obvious comparison to me.
	12:33pm Bob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:32 Lentils again, Neil?
	12:33pm clarke: ↳ Moammar @12:31 buddy cut some demo's on his home tape rig, in nyc.
	12:33pm alan the painter: hey Michael, thank you 4 spinin, springs unwinding all around us, my favorite seasoning, ann u helping with carpet o'sound, big thanks 4 warm music... My fav. gFrnd around us, take it as she give it, mother nature i luff yoU!
	12:34pm Hubig Pie: Educated fool Polluted water in the pool
	12:34pm egould: Koo koooo daddy longlegs…
	12:35pm Moammar: ↳ clarke @12:33 I've got a a completely random bunch of released sides, home tapes from Lubbock, Fifth Avenue etc. etc. Can't keep them all straight.
	12:35pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:34 i got a crawfish stain on my hubig's tshirt!!
	12:35pm Carl from providence: Pearl has roto Tom drum set with tube reflectors. Can’t find a picture tho
	12:35pm drr: Damn, strings. I saw the Tams open for Bo Diddley in about 1988. They only had one original member, and he just rolled out on a Rascal, sang the one line "Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy" and rolled back off, to a loud ovation. He actually sounded a lot like this version.
	12:36pm Moammar: ↳ Moammar @12:35 My father in law was in the Monterey High School band with Jerry Allison. Brushes with greatness.
	12:36pm clarke: ↳ Moammar @12:35 did you ever get the (vinyl) buddy box-set? worth the $
	12:36pm bobobob plasticland Atlanta: I sold a guitar to a guy in this band..A fake Les Paul ..an Ibanez sunburst
	12:36pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:30 Really? Wil Calhoun?
	12:37pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Song: "Only A Fool Breaks His Own Heart" by "Dandy Livin... Mellotron?
	12:37pm Hubig Pie: ↳ clarke @12:35 Seems apropos
	12:38pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:37 Sounds like it.
	12:38pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:37 could be - but, i am guessing ondioline?
	12:38pm PatrickMC: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:37 Thanks, maybe later
	12:38pm Handy Haversack: OK, this brunch casserole thing was worth the wait.
	12:38pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:37 they are big and tasty this year. tis the season!!
	12:39pm Michael Shelley: HEY - I hear actual Hubig Pies are BACK!?
	12:40pm clarke: they ARE! but theres competition.
	12:40pm bobob: t rundgren
	12:40pm clarke: Haydel's started making Hand Pies.
	12:40pm Hubig Pie: ↳ clarke @12:38 Still snow season here . 206 inches so far. More to come next week.
	12:40pm drr: ↳ Song: "Fooling Around" by "Lemon Twigs, The" Grr, Lemon Twigs played here in N.O. this week, but the show was absolutely unpublicized. I heard about it (that it was great) the next day.
	12:40pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:40 Damn.
	12:41pm PatrickMC: ↳ bobob @12:40 In the best sense
	12:41pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:40 whhhhaaaaa??? fuuuuuck!!
	12:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Fooling Around" by "Lemon Twigs, The" ...had to check this wasn't RundgrenRelated...
	12:41pm bobob: I was speaking of the Atlanta Tams
	12:42pm clarke: there's no f'n unity here - as far as events calendar, etc.
	12:43pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:42 It was at "Toulouse Theater" which is apparently being run as something of a private club.
	12:43pm clarke: i do know that The New Pornographers are at Tip's in may??
	12:43pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:43 shiiiiit!! that's the old one eyed jacks though.
	12:44pm clarke: right?
	12:44pm drr: Right? You need to tell people about the shows, it's a big room. Looked about 1/3 full from the pics I saw.
	12:44pm Gaylord Fields: ↳ Song: "Waiting For You" by "Baytovens, The" One of my top tier Fake Beatles tunes right there, I tell ya!
	12:44pm Listener Baby: Sugarballs’ band should cover this! A gem!
	12:45pm clarke: top tier, Fields - you love this dirty town!!

	11:07am egould: EC and Nick Lowe on June 9, Woodinville, WA. Pricey tickets.
	11:07am clarke: and then costello made Goodbye Cruel World and lost the plot.
	11:08am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "You Little Fool" by "Elvis Costello" I think it was Christgau or someone similar who took Elvis to task for that major panning effect in "You Little Fool." He was outraged by the sheer sonic trickery of it!
	11:08am Scott from Boston: Tickets are outrageous! Love that Imperial Bedroom though!
	11:08am joe mulligan: Moon Mullican, not related
	11:08am Joey!: Love Little Fool!!
	11:08am Hughie Considine: Hey Clarke!
	11:08am Bob: ↳ clarke @11:07 that was the tour I saw. Elvis seemed to think he was Frank Sinatra. Ring a ding not good
	11:09am clarke: mornin' hugh! howzit in cackalacky??
	11:09am Fred And Alan: Hello Michael. Fred and Alan.
	11:09am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @11:06 Morning Clarke!
	11:10am clarke: ↳ Bob @11:08 he might be the new sinatra, but them songs took a dive - or a dip.
	11:10am Hughie Considine: It's humid as heck and kinda rainy -- should be OK by the time the Dreamville fest kicks off -- they're expecting 100,000 in Raleigh!
	11:10am Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:08 Hughie, he needed to focus on the actual, you know, record. What a great record.
	11:10am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:10 wow! and who's in that fest?
	11:11am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @11:01 ?
	11:11am Hughie Considine: ↳ Squints @11:10 Totally agree -- I adored Imperial Bedroom when it came out though -- I was into excessive production.
	11:11am clarke: baby. Baby? BABY!!!!!
	11:12am Hughie Considine: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:11 OK, Squints, I get your meaning now. Yeah, Xgau was just a heap of opinions and very little about the music.
	11:12am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:11 Imperial B looms large in me legend.
	11:12am Listener Baby: Hey Now!
	11:12am drr: If only all drummers could play like this.
	11:13am clarke: there he is!! how goes in Victorville? snow?
	11:13am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:12 Heh. But are you fussy about your drums?
	11:13am clarke: ↳ drr @11:12 u don't like the shuffle.
	11:14am Listener Baby: Baby 3:16. And God said: Thou shall never miss The Michael Shelley Show
	11:14am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:13 drums are drums - you beat on them!
	11:14am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:10 Usher, Drake, J. Cole and a host of others whose music I wouldn't be able to identify.
	11:15am clarke: ouch!!
	11:15am listener phat in Lincoln: I finally get to see Nick Lowe opening for Elvis Costello in a few weeks.
	11:15am Bob: Ernest Ranglin is God. Tell Clapton fans.
	11:15am Hughie Considine: I won't be there!
	11:15am drr: Nothing wrong with the shuffle...I guess I'm venting about one particular drummer. Never mind.
	11:15am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:15 no Kingsbury Manx?? ha ha.
	11:16am clarke: ridin' in my car? hmm...
	11:16am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:15 Now Clarke, be nice
	11:16am Peter Horvath: Happy Saturday, #1’ers
	11:16am myron feld: You can see Elvis/Nick/Los Straitjackets at a former minor league ballpark in Bridgeport CT (RIP Bluefish!) in the upper deck for $80. No thanks. Last time I saw EC, it was underwhelming. Nick and LS, however, were great last summer.
	11:16am Bob: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:15 That NL/LS act is so on fire right now
	11:16am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Everybody's Talkin'" by "Ernest Ranglin" The Jazz Butcher does a nice "Everybody's Talkin'" too
	11:17am clarke: RIP Bluefish!
	11:18am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Bob @11:16 I really want to see Nick Lowe. I love EC, but for some reason, I'm not quite as excited about him. I hope it's good, as someone mentioned, the tics were expensive.
	11:18am clarke: damn - this guitar!!
	11:18am Cooh John: Hello Michael and #1 fools.
	11:19am HyperDose: Cooh John 😎
	11:19am clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:18 are you kidding?!? both will be fantastic!!
	11:19am clarke: where's the day-drinkin' a-hole ? guy??
	11:19am Moammar: That solo verged into Greg Ginn territory.
	11:20am Bob: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:18 I walked out on Elvis a year or so ago. I'm fingers crossed it will be better in a great outdoor venue. Charlie Sexton adds absolutely nothing to my ears.
	11:20am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @11:19 I'm sure. I really, really dig Nick Lowe.
	11:20am Handy Haversack: Hey now! Michael and all the Shellegamers!
	11:20am clarke: ↳ Bob @11:20 hopefully, EC's latest album will improve thangs.
	11:21am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:20 couldn't get a slip at the dock?
	11:21am ChrisB.: EC seems to come to our area twice a year in one iteration or other.
	11:22am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:21 Getting brunch in, doing dishes, putting in a load of laundry. Do I know how to Saturday or what?
	11:22am clarke: ↳ ChrisB. @11:21 for as much as EC claimed to love nola, he sure hasn't come around since, uh, just post-katrina.
	11:23am nycmusicnerd: Greetings fellow nerds...I AM GOING to see NL/EC at the Beacon on July 12! Might be seeing them in Boston as well.
	11:23am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 handy knows how to live!! bagpipe on the other hand(y)?
	11:23am Bob: I do like that Elvis still hits Encore records for a few hours everytime he comes to Ann Arbor. Still a record nut. He buys a lot of classical records but also anything from punk to Don Rickles albums!
	11:24am nycmusicnerd: I wasn't too impressed with EC either. He seems like he's just phoning it in these days. But NL is always a treat, especially when he's got Los Straitjackets behind him. If you've never seen NL with Los Straitjackets, you've GOT to go! It's not to be missed!
	11:25am listener phat in Lincoln: I think the #1 hits are finishing off this cold I've had the past few days.
	11:25am clarke: hope so!
	11:26am clarke: ↳ Song: "Bye Bye Love (demo)" by "Boudleaux And Felice Bry... that was certainly a cold-killer!
	11:26am CalZone!: Curtis!
	11:26am Listener Baby: Umm Speaking of drums..
	11:26am Corey: Morning Michael and listeners from snowy Traverse City, MI!
	11:27am Bob: ↳ nycmusicnerd @11:24 I've seen Nick with LS maybe five times at this point. The last one was just stunning. The best Nick performance i saw him do in the forty years I've been faithfully going.
	11:27am clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @11:26 yes yes.
	11:27am johnk77: dave robinson has a twitter feed twitter.com/Robbo1000

	11:28am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Michael & all!
	11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:23 And NOW I'm taking a COVID test. Everybody's workin' for the weekend!
	11:28am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Bob @11:27 I think Michael hit the nail on the head last summer when he commented that while they've always been good together, they're really starting to gel now. They really listen to each other when they play. And that makes a huge difference.
	11:29am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 gotta go back to the hospital? if so, i am sorry that has to happen, etc.
	11:30am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:29 Yeah, going back Mon. But also I was out of town and in big crowds and planes so just monitoring daily for a while.
	11:30am clarke: zone 5 will be unattended, next week.
	11:30am clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:30 gotcha. sorry about the hospital tho.
	11:31am bobobob plasticland: nobody hates # 1 hits or you!!!!
	11:31am Greg from ZONE 5: Hope you guys like EDM!
	11:31am Bob: I've been off Facebook for going on three years and it's a great place to be. Facebook is 11% less funny without me but I gotta do what's best for me.
	11:31am clarke: ha ha ha. nope.
	11:31am Crei6hton: Morning WFMU
	11:32am Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @11:30 Thanks. Our friend is going to be in there another month, probably, so more visits to come. I'm going to try to go MWTh this week after work, at least for a bit.
	11:32am Squints: I was that way in HS about Skynyrd and Geils because my little brother liked them. Then got to college and realized, "you idiot." Love my bubba. We get along great so long as we don't share a room. 8^)
	11:32am Scott from Boston: Gene’s love letter to the Beatles!
	11:32am Bob: Gene sounds like Eric Carmen
	11:32am listener phat in Lincoln: KISS were partially responsible for my one and only appearance in Billboard magazine

	11:33am egould: Stanley/Simmons > Lennon/McCartney
	11:33am myron feld: ↳ Song: "See You Tonight" by "KISS" Eugene "Gene Simmons" Klein is in my sister's high school yearbook. True story.
	11:33am clarke: you had to mention squirrels - now that will wake FuZZ up!
	11:34am nycmusicnerd: ↳ clarke @11:33 Don't you know that it's different for squirrels?
	11:35am Hughie Considine: ↳ myron feld @11:33 I'm sure Eugene was quite the charming rogue!
	11:35am Listener Baby: PS. You on FIRE, Baby.
	11:35am Moammar: ↳ Song: "Nobody's Fool" by "Dan Penn" Best song ever to emanate from Muscle Shoals?
	11:35am myron feld: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:35 It's a pretty dashing portrait.
	11:35am herb.nyc: Righto, the paper had lotsa news. I sent this poem(?) to friends- Really, ya wanna put the President under arrest? Like, did he grab a pussy, did he grab a breast?
	11:36am Bob: Alex Chilton does a great version. No surprise
	11:36am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "See You Tonight" by "KISS" The Kiss song crashed my WoofMoo app!
	11:36am clarke: ↳ nycmusicnerd @11:34 i thought i knew that.
	11:36am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:32 Sorry to hear that
	11:37am clarke: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @11:36 Woodsy!!
	11:38am rx scabin: Good morning, Michael and Everyone.
	11:38am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ clarke @11:37 Hiya! Happy Saturday, or something. I would say Happy April Fools day but I already fell for one gag in the worst way...
	11:38am clarke: RX how's thangs? hope better!

	11:40am Handy Haversack: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:36 Thanks, phat! How's NE treating you?
	11:41am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ clarke @11:39 A local ice cream place (bear in mind that I'm up near Bar Harbor) called Udder Heaven posted an announcement about how they're going to install a giant ferris wheel to give tourists a great view of Acadia National Park at 200 feet...to be called the "Uddah Wheel." Me & Mrs. Woods are like...THAT'S A FANTASTIC IDEA!! ...duh.
	11:42am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:40 I have a cold. Spring is finally almost here, sort of. The government is run by lunatics. I play a lot of guitar lately. That's about it.
	11:43am clarke: ha ha ha!! the missus - obviously in on it!
	11:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:42 Yeah. Math checks out.
	11:43am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Everybody Plays The Fool" by "Chosen Few" Certainly a classic of the "fool" genre - I thought this would pop up, but was expecting the version by Cuba Gooding Sr.
	11:43am clarke: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:42 ignorance is bliss!
	11:43am ?: Damn I was just stuck on the train with some unmasked creep who kept coughing away. It rules that infecting people with disease is a personality trait now. ‘I’ll do me you do you’ 🤡💀
	11:44am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ clarke @11:43 Nope! She read it off of fb to me. Ha! Now our summer is ruined! No Uddah Wheel!!!!!
	11:45am clarke: no Uddah Wheel but, why ask for the moon when we have the stars??
	11:45am Alan in Marblehead: ↳ Song: "Hot Dog" by "Four Shells" Ringo the dog says "Good Morning Michael and everyone. Hot Dog is my FAVORITE song and favorite treat - woof!"
	11:46am clarke: ↳ Alan in Marblehead @11:45 as ringo in Magic Chrisian says: hot doggie??
	11:47am Bob: I'm not really a prankster guy in general but one time on Facebook's NRBQ page I posted a dead link for the raw footage of the film shot for the NRBQ reunion shows that has never been seen. A few people thought it was hilarious.
	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ⦿Sun in ♈︎Aries, Year of Earth 🐂Ox Gilbert "Gil" Scott-Heron April 1, 1949 – May 27, 2011

	11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Squidocto @11:48 - right ?
	11:48am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Slip Away" by "Ian Lloyd" Ahhh.... a gem from that magical era when you turn on the radio and catch hits by Bram Tchaikovsky and the Records...
	11:49am Hoboken Jack: Hot dog rec noted but... Ok for a mid-50a guy to lie on the grass of Mamaroneck High?
	11:49am clarke: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @11:48 apparently, the REVolution WILL be televised, after all.
	11:50am clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:49 jaaack!! quite enjoyed Quiet Girl - thanks!!
	11:50am HyperDose: ↳ clarke @11:49 The revolution starts the moment that Bob Dylan death tape gets played
	11:50am Handy Haversack: I keep missing the witty banter while I continue to do boring things! Saturday sucks so far!
	11:50am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Squidocto @11:48 I've always said "oh-kay-sic"
	11:50am Squints: The tough part of the show when I need to go the beer fridge for more sodas but don't want to miss any of this.
	11:51am Squints: ↳ Squints @11:50 Piss poor preparation. I'll be right back.
	11:51am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:50 make up your mind, dude! beer or soda?
	11:51am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @11:50 Actually, on reflection, I think I switch sometimes. Lol.

	11:53am clarke: then i followed that up with Angela's Ashes (2nd view).. oof!!
	11:53am Red: Loving todays theme.
	11:53am Listener Baby: It’s not how many, but where.
	11:54am clarke: i still contend that costello prank was the best april fool's thang EVER!
	11:55am Hoboken Jack: ↳ Listener Baby @11:53 Oh Baby!!
	11:55am Squints: ↳ clarke @11:51 Heh. "My GOD, man." It's a beer fridge, but sometimes a man's got to know his limitations. I actually don't keep a lot of beer in the house any more except to have around to entertain company. Two beers and it's nap time pretty quickly if I'm not out. So I drink mostly when I'm out.
	11:55am clarke: oh. BABY!!
	11:56am Squints: ↳ Song: "Chain Of Fools" by "Jimmy Brown" G. G. Y.
	11:56am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:55 and for me to use the phrase "soda" - anomaly. being a good suhthun boy, we always say whatev the drink is.
	11:56am Handy Haversack: ↳ Squints @11:55 I drank more beer over the past week than I had since the beginning of the pandemic.
	11:56am prof.fuzz: howdy y'all

	11:58am Hoboken Jack: ↳ clarke @11:57 Hi Fuzz
	11:58am Handy Haversack: What up, prof.?
	11:58am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:58 naw, we just say whatever the drink is - NOT orange coke.
	11:59am prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:58 hey handy! packing up for an away show in waco this evening.
	11:59am Squints: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:56 Was at a buddy's wedding near Clearwater last weekend. Lotta beer. Whole lotta beer. Got home and detoxed with a bunch of Guinesses.
	11:59am Handy Haversack: And COVID test negative!
	11:59am Bob: We need something to watch. Tried Slower Horses but Gary Oldman's scene chewing is too much for me. Is he a bigger ham than Samuel L. Jackson? Watched the Waco docuseries on Netflix, which is pretty good. Flawed but worth the new footage and reminder of what a crazy story it was
	11:59am clarke: whoohooo!!!
	11:59am prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:59 that's a positive!
	12:00pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Squints @11:59 Strictly medicinal. I'm having the official cocktail of WFMU Saturdays right now -- the Lunkhead. It's last night's one-vodka-soda-too-many stuck in the fridge overnight and then freshened up a mite for a brand new day.
	12:00pm Bob: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:59 Nice work
	12:00pm clarke: i got something pretty cool for FuZZ, this morning. not april fools.
	12:01pm clarke: leftover love.
	12:01pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @12:00 oh. hey!
	12:01pm Jeff The Nerd: Happy Saturday!!!! Always the best with a lil Woof MOO!
	12:01pm Drugthedummer: If you're going to the Beatles est, you MUST interview Glenn Burtnik.
	12:02pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:01 i'll be shipping, this week!
	12:02pm Squints: ↳ Squints @11:59 Probably pints at the pub this afternnon when the Broons are on.
	12:02pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "Slip Away" by "Ian Lloyd" We saw The Smithereens last night (who were great, of course), and DJ Miriam Linna spun this song! A very un-Nortonesque choice but so great.
	12:02pm rx scabin: Thank you, Michael. I am going to visit my mother (94) in the non-Amy Winehouse type rehab.
	12:03pm clarke: so>? the actual subject is the band Van Duren? i'm IN!
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ rx scabin @12:02 all the best, RX!!
	12:03pm Listener Baby: ↳ Bob @11:59 I used see his records all the time in thrift stores. The covers were always so bad, I never thought to buy one. I guess everybody wore tight satin pants back then. You are never too old to learn something.
	12:04pm WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:59 Yay!
	12:04pm Bob: Thanks for the Van Duren tip. Been wanting to see that. What I hate about most music docs is Dave Grohl is always in there.
	12:05pm Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @12:03 tubitv.com...
	12:05pm Squints: ↳ Bob @12:04 Him in particular, or just said ubiquity?
	12:05pm paul: ↳ Bob @12:04 And at every tribute concert.
	12:05pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:05 danke, sir!
	12:06pm Hoboken Jack: Agree, Michael, re: "making of" a documentary. I had a boss years ago who asked us to change something we'd put a lot of effort into. He said no one cares how difficult it was, they just want the finished product. Was annoyed at the time but the lesson has stuck with me.
	12:06pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Song: "Judy" by "dBs, The" bass!
	12:06pm clarke: rigby = drums!! bueno!
	12:07pm Bob: ↳ Squints @12:05 Ubiquity I guess. He seems like a nice guy. I don't know.
	12:07pm clarke: and bass (holder)!!
	12:07pm drr: Did the "making of" doc framing kinda start with Spinal Tap, or were they making fun of it too?
	12:09pm clarke: i wish all drums were Like This!
	12:09pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" by "Bob Seger System, The" We can all go home now!
	12:09pm PatrickMC: Bob Seger super awesome #1
	12:09pm luka: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" by "Bob Seger System, The" by god that’s Clay Pigeon’s music!!
	12:10pm drr: "Just put those claps anywhere, that's great."
	12:10pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" by "Bob Seger System, The" Speaking of drums. God I love this
	12:10pm Bob: Early Bob Seger singles are so great. It's a shame everyone doesn't know. Bob doesn't help by burying this stuff.
	12:10pm drr: These drums are OPPRESSIVE!!
	12:10pm johnk77: grew up in ne ohio but this seger track is part of the reason the rock hall should have been in michigan
	12:11pm Michael Shelley: ↳ clarke @12:09 You need this set up: townsquare.media...
	12:11pm clarke: but, yes, the shuffle is in the kick.
	12:11pm jt: Ramblin' Gamblin' Man describes me exactly...minus the rambling and gambling part..you can have your funky world
	12:11pm Squints: ↳ Bob @12:07 I guess if one's making a documentary and is going to feature talking heads, one wants prominent talking heads. And he's sure one. You're right. He's does seem like a regular guy. But we don't really have more than casual interest in what he knows or thinks about any given band except that one. (About which we're of course All. Ears.)
	12:11pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:11 ha ha ha. NOOO!!!
	12:12pm Bob: TWOFER Saturday?
	12:12pm Squints: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" by "Bob Seger System, The" One of those songs I love because there's no mistaking that drum opening. You know from 0:00:01. Another one I don't favorite on the playlist because DUH.
	12:12pm Corey: Seger! Just got out of Denver. Actually pretty nice. Probably less paranoid and weird than a lot of Michigan these days!
	12:12pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man" by "Bob Seger System, The" Among the Number Onest of all Number Ones. Glenn Frey on a barely audible acoustic guitar.
	12:12pm Jimmy Wipper: A double shot of Seger!
	12:12pm BobPgh: Not Dave Edmunds??
	12:13pm Squints: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:10 What phat said. Yup.
	12:13pm clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @12:12 but not Stinkfinger??
	12:13pm PatrickMC: I was worried Bob had died when we got a double play
	12:13pm Bob: How did this song get in the pub rock setlists anyway? Rockpile, Eddie and the Hotrods, a bunch of them did it.
	12:13pm drr: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:11 OMG that is great. They must have had a great van.
	12:13pm Jimmy Wipper: ↳ clarke @12:13 It’s not too late!
	12:13pm Moammar: ↳ Song: "Get Out Of Denver" by "Bob Seger" Every time I start digging a Seger song I can't help thinking of his late 70s/early 80s schlock and the glow fades. Still, this is great.
	12:13pm jmd: Dang-heck, Whatta double whammy
	12:14pm Squints: ↳ Moammar @12:13 He did become Middle-Aged Man in no time flat once he made it.
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ Jimmy Wipper @12:13 you've called the News Dept!
	12:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Moammar @12:13 Years of "Like a Rock" in car ads was a lot to bear.
	12:15pm Moammar: ↳ Squints @12:14 We've got tonight, Squints.
	12:15pm Daybreak is Curious...: Even people with long hair could be casual victims of the police… I don't like the way you look boy, you better get out of Denver!
	12:15pm Cooh John: I agree, johnk77. Grew up in Toledo. Bob hung around there.
	12:15pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:14 Speaking of ubiquity. Does that mean Grohl is the new Bob Seger?
	12:15pm myron feld: ↳ Song: "The Fool" by "Jimmy Gilmer" Waltz-time covers don't get enough love.
	12:16pm PatrickMC: ↳ Moammar @12:13 Night Moves is great
	12:16pm Bob: Way up firm and high. Bob's high school is just down the road from me. Him and the Stooges
	12:16pm drr: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:11 Also, is that drummer the inspiration for Animal? That collar looks like something they would have had to put a leash on.
	12:16pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ myron feld @12:15 This is disorienting.
	12:16pm Squidocto: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:15 Ouch
	12:17pm Squints: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @12:14 When he cut the long long hair and started looking like Kenny Rogers the mirror might have told him he needed to sound like that. Although the early Kenny Rogers did make some real innaresting records -- Condition, Something's Burning, Ruby.....
	12:17pm Listener Baby: Jeez Baby. What did have for breakfast this morning?
	12:17pm Squints: ↳ PatrickMC @12:16 Yup. The last really great one.
	12:17pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Squidocto @12:16 It's funny cause it might be true!
	12:17pm Handy Haversack: clarke, you seen Tim lately? I have a PURE MICHIGAN hypothesis I want to run by him.
	12:18pm clarke: THREE bass drums!!
	12:18pm Joey!: Met Ian Lloyd at a Chiller Convention years ago!! What a fantastic guy!!
	12:19pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:17 tim was on EFD's chat.
	12:19pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Joey! @12:18 does he have a Horror connection? Or was he there as a fan?
	12:20pm drr: ↳ Squints @12:17 Ernie K-Doe, when he was still around and "running" his bar (with a lot of help from his wife Antoinette), would sometimes make the whole place be quiet and listen to Kenny sing "The Gambler". I tell you, I reconsidered Mr. Rogers from then on, and now really appreciate his work. It's nice to see him with Lionel Richie, who wrote one of his biggest hits. Kenny Rogers is good.
	12:20pm Squints: ↳ Song: "Mohair Sam" by "Peggy Lee" Makes you wish Peggy Lee had been around to do some "Soul Of Vh-1" like Tom Jones. Ponder Peggy in a bar belting r'n'b covers.
	12:20pm clarke: boin, dave, boin!!
	12:21pm johnk77: ↳ Cooh John @12:15 grew up in mansfield w/music explosion, sir tim & the royals, ohio express etc.
	12:21pm Squints: ↳ drr @12:20 Yep. Later stuff is just not my bag, is all. I also prefer Waylon's more bompy version of "Lucille." But Waylon makes everything better.
	12:22pm clarke: also, if you notice in that photo there are a bunch of drums melded together up on the ceiling of the stage.
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Squints @12:21 IT'S NOT MY BAG, BABY!!!
	12:23pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:22 No, those are his extra toms!! They've added some curvy parts to direct the sound toward the audience.
	12:23pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @12:22 looks like drum head on HVAC ductwork!
	12:23pm jmd: Always a #1 boost when you start with the chorus.
	12:23pm Listener Baby: Was Levon Helm in this band, Baby?
	12:23pm drr: ↳ drr @12:23 That poor bass player.
	12:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "If You Really Want To Hurt Somebody" by "Pencils,... ...okay Pencils ...you've made your point...
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:23 yeah not sure what's going on there.
	12:24pm johnk77: thanks for the drum photo selecter:> looks like a live gig i see at least 4 bass drums
	12:24pm Squints: ↳ drr @12:23 There's such a thing as extra toms? Can there ever be too many?
	12:25pm clarke: yes.
	12:25pm Sam: ↳ Song: "If You Really Want To Hurt Somebody" by "Pencils,... This might’ve been a bigger hit if the sound was less muddy and the instrumentals less stark.
	12:25pm drr: ↳ johnk77 @12:24 Reminds me of seeing "The Misfits" (or an approximation of same opening for Gwar) and they had a huge marching band drum as the bass, and floor toms mounted on the kit as rack toms. My god it looked so stupid.
	12:25pm Gaston: Nice music, strange lyrics
	12:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Tell All The Fools" by "Dennis Diken With Bell So... + DennisD Time ! +
	12:26pm drr: ↳ Squints @12:24 idk, ask Terry Bozzio.
	12:26pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:25 i ain't no goddam sonofabitch!
	12:27pm clarke: (actually, i am).
	12:27pm drr: ↳ clarke @12:26 great goddam song. I actually got to sing it from the drummer throne with my silly band in Austin.
	12:28pm Handy Haversack: Some friends recently got squeezed out of a practice space by the ever-expanding kit of the drummer from [a famous nineties band]. It was pretty comical.
	12:28pm clarke: good tune.
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:28 ha ha ha
	12:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ drr @12:26 Yeah but Terry should have all the drums he wants.
	12:28pm drr: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:28 oh come on, you can't leave us hanging like that. A hint at least.
	12:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:28 ...saving for the SpinalTap sequel...
	12:29pm PatrickMC: Another twofer. Awesome
	12:29pm clarke: are these handclaps random enough for you dave?
	12:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Love's Made A Fool Of You" by "Buddy Holly" Buddy Holly Lives
	12:30pm turtles: I’m sad how few listens The Pencils have in Spotify.
	12:30pm HyperDose: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:29 On an island with Biggie and Tupac
	12:30pm Handy Haversack: ↳ drr @12:28 It became clear and vivid: time's up.
	12:30pm Squints: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:29 Well, if he's a drummer, that'll be a cameo.
	12:30pm PatrickMC: ↳ Song: "Love's Made A Fool Of You" by "Buddy Holly" Interesting how Bobby Fuller drained a little of the Bo Diddley and made it more Holly
	12:31pm Moammar: ↳ PatrickMC @12:30 This isn't the version I'm used to. Maybe a later overdub version?
	12:32pm clarke: Leo Nocentelli is again doing a set at JazzFest - april 26th 2pm
	12:32pm Listener Baby: ↳ PatrickMC @12:30 Keen insight, Moamar.
	12:32pm egould: Fool Me by Smokescreens LA A Fool Like You by The Last Sunset’s Fool by Deaf Wish Fool Is A Man by Chesterfields Fools Noone by Penicillin Baby Life’s Greatest Fool by Gene Clark Some Kinda Fool by Sneakers Who Do You Wanna Fool by Hard-ons Fool by ALL
	12:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ HyperDose @12:30 ...I thot it was upsidedown in one of the YoungOnes' bedrooms - but I'll entertain theories...
	12:32pm drr: ↳ Song: "Educated Fool" by "Eddie Hill" This "Educated Fool" is like "Christmas Moppers" by Sparrow, at least that seems like the obvious comparison to me.
	12:33pm Bob: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @12:32 Lentils again, Neil?
	12:33pm clarke: ↳ Moammar @12:31 buddy cut some demo's on his home tape rig, in nyc.

	12:34pm Hubig Pie: Educated fool Polluted water in the pool
	12:34pm egould: Koo koooo daddy longlegs…
	12:35pm Moammar: ↳ clarke @12:33 I've got a a completely random bunch of released sides, home tapes from Lubbock, Fifth Avenue etc. etc. Can't keep them all straight.
	12:35pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:34 i got a crawfish stain on my hubig's tshirt!!
	12:35pm Carl from providence: Pearl has roto Tom drum set with tube reflectors. Can’t find a picture tho
	12:35pm drr: Damn, strings. I saw the Tams open for Bo Diddley in about 1988. They only had one original member, and he just rolled out on a Rascal, sang the one line "Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy" and rolled back off, to a loud ovation. He actually sounded a lot like this version.
	12:36pm Moammar: ↳ Moammar @12:35 My father in law was in the Monterey High School band with Jerry Allison. Brushes with greatness.
	12:36pm clarke: ↳ Moammar @12:35 did you ever get the (vinyl) buddy box-set? worth the $
