	5:03pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @5:03 どうだったか？
	5:04pm Andres: Hi, Mike. Digging the sinister sounding surf instro!
	5:04pm Aitch: Hey Mike-san and crew.
	5:05pm Mike Rogers: Hey Aitch san! How are You? Glad you are here!!!!
	5:06pm Domenic: Mike San and crew. Hello!
	5:06pm Aitch: Time change show now 7am start, easy enough but 6am for you a bit ouch
	5:08pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Domenic @5:06 Domenic san! おひさしぶり！ (It's been a while! Thanks for coming by!
	5:08pm Domenic: ↳ Aitch @5:06 United States thinking they can just "move" time... ugh. i'm in the 'FMU zone so its no biggie.
	5:09pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:06 THanks Aitch san! This ain't nuttin! Yesterday I interviewed Josie Cotton. I had to wake up at 2 am for that. But she is such a huge star, I said, "Of course!!!" Soon on Youtube )Oh! and also Richie Ramone too!)
	5:10pm mochy: The two-man live is tomorrow, so I'll talk to you in the chat on Sunday. Have you ever played Akaikurage?
	5:13pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @5:10 No! I have never even heard of that band! But if the bands don't send me their music, I can't play it!
	5:15pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:06 This time change stuff is confsinf because every country does it a different day!
	5:17pm Aitch: Half our states don't do it at all and one is a half hour different. 2 hrs different from one side to the other.
	5:17pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Domenic @5:08 It's really bad here in Japan because we are basicaly first for the new day, so, say UK says "Sunday morning at 8 am) That is my Sunday night at 11 pm or something like that.... And the USA picks a a different day too!
	5:18pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:17 I think in the uSA only Arizona doesn't do it... That must make people so confused for about a week!
	5:18pm mochy: I'll talk to you when I go to the live show.
	5:19pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mike Rogers @5:13 If you have Akaikurage, please send it!
	5:19pm Aitch: Not sure many people live there? New Zealand is first, already 9am there, but then minus 10 years.
	5:20pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:19 "Minus 10 years?" Bwa! Ha! ha!
	5:23pm Aitch: Just being cheeky, know loads of Kiwis, but because so many come here, more opportunity
	5:25pm Mr Fab: ↳ Aitch @5:19 Boom! haha. So the running joke in the "Flight of the Conchords" show about rivalry with Australians has some basis in reality?
	5:27pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:23 I have been to New Zealnad twice but never to Australia... I hear Australia has lots of creepy crawlies! I don't like those!!!!! ;
	5:27pm Mike Rogers: ;)
	5:28pm Mike Rogers: Oh, my wife would faint if she saw one of those Australain Black killer spiders... Don't they get to be the size of dogs?
	5:30pm mochy: Akaikurage's YouTube I sent it to mike-san's messenger. Please listen to the image to the last. If you like it, please message me.
	5:32pm Aitch: Yes Mr Fab, very real, but friendly. mike we mostly live in nice clean modern cities and the giant dog-spiders are mostly house-trained and obedient unless you forget to feed them their venom-grubs
	5:33pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @5:30 Oh? OK. How did you send it to me? FB messnger, Twitter? Instagram, what ever? I can't keep track!
	5:34pm Mr Fab: I'm sure no young people will ever sneak a card out of parent's wallet, run to the store, sneak it back. Would never OCCUR to them. It's really a foolproof plan.
	5:34pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:32 Dog spiders pets? Wow! I'll be that could be the next most popular pet in Japan & China!
	5:34pm Andres: Self checkout machines rife for underage beer purchase abuse? It’s going to set off a wave of teen tourism. Spring break! It’s the new Amsterdam! ;)
	5:35pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @5:34 Wow! Mr. Fab! I had never thught of that! You devious guy you!!!!
	5:36pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Andres @5:34 Yeah! Come on down...
	5:37pm mochy: Tsushima Mire is here! Tomorrow at the Tokoenji UFO Club Two-man live with Akai kurage!
	5:37pm Mike Rogers: By the way, when I was a 10 year old boy, I used to sneak drinks from my dad's whisky. Really.... And steal his cigarettes too. I'm glad I could overcome those bad traits to be a proud WFMU DJ today.
	5:38pm Mike Rogers: Did anyof you guys drink your dad's booze? I did it a lot when I was about 10... Then pass out on the sofa. Really!
	5:39pm Aitch: My dad had a wine cellar and my best mate's dad owned a pub.
	5:40pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:39 Aitch! We know you did it. Admit it! ADMIT IT!!!! Or you are going to jail!
	5:40pm Aitch: Guilty your honour
	5:41pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:40 OK. You are given a "Normal Kid Award!" Ha! Ha! Ha!
	5:42pm Mike Rogers: I'd drink my dad's whisky and the try to rpelace it so he wouldn't notice it with water and soy sauce. No kidding.
	5:42pm Mike Rogers: I asked him after I graduated from college and he never knew!
	5:43pm Mike Rogers: But my mom was shocked I used to get drunk when I was 10.
	5:46pm Mike Rogers: But it was OK. Because I was 22 and graduated from college...And was drink when I told them....
	5:46pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Sacrifice" by "Sleez Sisters" This one is really good
	5:47pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:46 These girls love the Deadboys!
	5:47pm Aitch: Tea (black) is better, same colour as the whiskey.
	5:49pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:47 My mom was Japanese so we only had green tea... But I'll make sure to hide to black tea somewhere where the kids can't find it! ;)
	5:51pm Mike Rogers: Actually, I was surprised my dad never caught on... I think I stopped drinking from 12 years old ~ 20 or so.
	5:51pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Love with a Prostitute" by "Su Ko D Koi" This one's pretty interesting - started off a typical Ramones rip (which is ok by me) but then went in all kinds of directions. I'm dizzy.
	5:52pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @5:51 This song is banned on Japanese FM radio. No kidding.
	5:53pm Mike Rogers: The FM station I am on refused to let me play it this week!
	5:54pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mike Rogers @5:52 Well that song title certainly points to another interesting thing about that song. I can only imagine what it's about...
	5:57pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @5:54 You'd be surprised. That band sings songs like 50s bands, "He hit me and it felt like a kiss" really. Those kinds of lyrics... I'll play one of their fr¥irst hits next.... People write to the station and saind they were crying listening to this song
	5:58pm mochy: Su凸koD凹koi→suttodokkoi
	5:58pm Hunterian: ↳ Song: "Love with a Prostitute" by "Su Ko D Koi" 風俗嬢との恋 amazing song
	5:59pm mochy: That's a good song.
	6:00pm Domenic: ↳ Song: "Anything Goes" by "Tetsuko" interesting story! thanks
	6:01pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @5:58 いいえない！
	6:01pm mochy: It's like an ugly cute love story.
	6:01pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Hunterian @5:58 Hunterian san!　Good Morning! Thank you!
	6:01pm Feldy: Hey Mike san! Check out that poster!
	6:02pm Mr Fab: Can't tell if they're being ironic or satirical.
	6:04pm Domenic: Can these dogs stick their stupid precious heads out the windows?
	6:06pm Andres: I blame Totoro. They saw that cat bus and then the dogs demanded some sort of equivalent.
	6:06pm Feldy: One of my favorite The Onion news stories is "Local Dog Doesn't Know It Just Graduated" and a photo of a dog with a grad cap on
	6:07pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Feldy @6:01 What poster???
	6:08pm Domenic: ↳ Feldy @6:06 if you eat enough homework.....
	6:09pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:02 No. It's not a joke here in Japan. People here take their dogs for walks by letting them ride in carriages (like Baby carts)... My neighbor (who has a dg, of course) told me that other neighbors dogs were "stuck Up!" No kidding.
	6:10pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Domenic @6:04 Of course! poochy gets to stick his head out the window. Oh, isn't he so cute?
	6:10pm Feldy: ↳ Mike Rogers @6:07 Grapefruit!
	6:11pm mochy: Certainly recently There are a lot of people who wear clothes to small dogs.
	6:11pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Feldy @6:06 Maybe that photo was taken before he received his diploma?
	6:12pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @6:11 It's on the song list (Of course, every week!)
	6:12pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Feldy @6:01 Oh good morning Feldy san!!!!!
	6:13pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Andres @6:06 Andres san! Good morning! I saw that cartoon when my son was small (weird assed cartoon!)
	6:13pm Feldy: The price of that dog bus trip is crazy, but taking your dogs places is fun and social (for them as well as yourself)
	6:15pm Andres: ↳ Feldy @6:13 I bet it also has potential for meeting a future spouse, assuming the dogs get along of course.
	6:16pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Feldy @6:13 I take my dog out for a smoke everyday.... But it seems he doesn't like cigarettes!
	6:17pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Andres @6:15 Hmmm? Maybe, but usually only married and old people have dogs in Japan. Dogs are VERY expensive here. Like $1000 for a puppy! No kidding.... mUch more if you buy from a pet store!
	6:18pm mochy: るせるせ〜ジャパンインディーズアワードのライブはみんなでるせるせしましょう！
	6:18pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Feldy @6:13 My dog doesn't know he is a dog. He hates all other dogs. No kidding. But what can I say? He is actually my wife's dog (and she is used to Japanese way!)
	6:19pm Andres: ↳ Mike Rogers @6:17 Not too far off prices for certain breeds or mixes here. But many more single people with dogs here. The dog park dating/pickup scene is real!
	6:20pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @6:18 Yeah! I'm looking so much forward to Japan Indies Music Awards. Tetsuko will headline... I am hoping this is the night she breaks big!!!!!!
	6:20pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Andres @6:19 Really? I have heard that before. Dog dating? I wonder if dogs are embarrassed when they have t take a dump in front of humans?
	6:21pm mochy: I'll be at work soon. Saitama is raining a little. Thank you very much😊
	6:21pm Mike Rogers: When I was a kid, we raised many dogs, but those dogs were for hunting ducks & pheasants... Not s much for pets...
	6:22pm Mike Rogers: Mochy san! It's raining? AGAIN!
	6:22pm mochy: ruse ruse ruse〜
	6:22pm mochy: そうです。二子玉は？
	6:24pm Mike Rogers: Going to start soon!
	6:24pm Mike Rogers: I LOVE this Japanese rock!!!!
	6:25pm Andres: ↳ Mike Rogers @6:20 Ha! Dating for the people. Pet dog is the icebreaker/prop.
	6:26pm Mike Rogers: Who cares if it's difficult to pick out what they are singing about (I need several listens to do so, and many times I still can't!) But that's like real rock & roll!!!
	6:27pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Andres @6:25 This is serious, I knew a guy who used to walk around town pulling a vacuum cleaner. No kidding.
	6:27pm Mike Rogers: And that was in Japan.
	6:27pm mochy: マイクさんありがとうございました
	6:28pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @6:27 Thanks Mochy san! がんばって！
	6:31pm Mike Rogers: Oh, my baby!
	6:33pm mochy: ありがとうございます！
	6:33pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @6:33 tondemonai!
	6:35pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Tsukikaage no Rendevous" by "Keiko Mari" loved it, that was so groovy mod kitschy. Do you have more stuff like it, Mike?
	6:36pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:35 Oh, I have a half ton of that kind fo stuff. You want it? "Oh, my daring?"
	6:38pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mike Rogers @6:36 If it's as good as that tune, heck yeah, I'll take it!
	6:40pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:38 Well, I send you the entire compilation today... There's lots of samba, and weird stuff on their... Never hits on Japanese radio... You know "Nippon Girls" series?
	6:41pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:38 It's kinda like Nuggets or Pebbles but Japanese pop (not big stars)
	6:41pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:38 Well there a are a few big stars, but these are definitley not their hits
	6:43pm Mr Fab: I do have some of those, maybe..? Not coming up in my hard drive search.
	6:43pm Mike Rogers: Kind of like Frank Sinatra singing about golfing or BBQ'ing.
	6:47pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:43 Oh, god. I have so many massive hard drives too... I know I have some songs, but can't find them... Then it is a pain in the neck to rip the CDs again.　Gotta even find the CDs (they are in order, but not perfect order! Some CDs I've been looking for for months!)
	6:50pm Mike Rogers: And I screwed up because put film projects and music stuff on the same hard drives, so I can't remember where I put something... Then have to plug them in again and search... Unplug them, and plug in a new one...
	6:51pm Mike Rogers: Feldy san! Did you see the poster??? It's so fab. We are going to win best poster award at Raindance! You'll see (I mean if they will do that this year!)
	6:58pm Mr Fab: BYYYEEE!
	6:59pm Mike Rogers: Bye! Mr. Fab san!!!!
	6:59pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:58 When am I switching to Saturday nites?
	7:00pm Feldy: ↳ Mike Rogers @6:51 That would be great, Mike!
	7:00pm Mike Rogers: Bye! Everyone!
	7:00pm Feldy: Thanks Mike!

	5:19pm Aitch: Not sure many people live there? New Zealand is first, already 9am there, but then minus 10 years.
	5:20pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:19 "Minus 10 years?" Bwa! Ha! ha!
	5:23pm Aitch: Just being cheeky, know loads of Kiwis, but because so many come here, more opportunity
	5:25pm Mr Fab: ↳ Aitch @5:19 Boom! haha. So the running joke in the "Flight of the Conchords" show about rivalry with Australians has some basis in reality?
	5:27pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:23 I have been to New Zealnad twice but never to Australia... I hear Australia has lots of creepy crawlies! I don't like those!!!!! ;
	5:27pm Mike Rogers: ;)
	5:28pm Mike Rogers: Oh, my wife would faint if she saw one of those Australain Black killer spiders... Don't they get to be the size of dogs?
	5:30pm mochy: Akaikurage's YouTube I sent it to mike-san's messenger. Please listen to the image to the last. If you like it, please message me.
	5:32pm Aitch: Yes Mr Fab, very real, but friendly. mike we mostly live in nice clean modern cities and the giant dog-spiders are mostly house-trained and obedient unless you forget to feed them their venom-grubs
	5:33pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @5:30 Oh? OK. How did you send it to me? FB messnger, Twitter? Instagram, what ever? I can't keep track!
	5:34pm Mr Fab: I'm sure no young people will ever sneak a card out of parent's wallet, run to the store, sneak it back. Would never OCCUR to them. It's really a foolproof plan.
	5:34pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:32 Dog spiders pets? Wow! I'll be that could be the next most popular pet in Japan & China!
	5:34pm Andres: Self checkout machines rife for underage beer purchase abuse? It’s going to set off a wave of teen tourism. Spring break! It’s the new Amsterdam! ;)
	5:35pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @5:34 Wow! Mr. Fab! I had never thught of that! You devious guy you!!!!
	5:36pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Andres @5:34 Yeah! Come on down...
	5:37pm mochy: Tsushima Mire is here! Tomorrow at the Tokoenji UFO Club Two-man live with Akai kurage!
	5:37pm Mike Rogers: By the way, when I was a 10 year old boy, I used to sneak drinks from my dad's whisky. Really.... And steal his cigarettes too. I'm glad I could overcome those bad traits to be a proud WFMU DJ today.
	5:38pm Mike Rogers: Did anyof you guys drink your dad's booze? I did it a lot when I was about 10... Then pass out on the sofa. Really!
	5:39pm Aitch: My dad had a wine cellar and my best mate's dad owned a pub.
	5:40pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:39 Aitch! We know you did it. Admit it! ADMIT IT!!!! Or you are going to jail!
	5:40pm Aitch: Guilty your honour
	5:41pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:40 OK. You are given a "Normal Kid Award!" Ha! Ha! Ha!
	5:42pm Mike Rogers: I'd drink my dad's whisky and the try to rpelace it so he wouldn't notice it with water and soy sauce. No kidding.
	5:42pm Mike Rogers: I asked him after I graduated from college and he never knew!
	5:43pm Mike Rogers: But my mom was shocked I used to get drunk when I was 10.
	5:46pm Mike Rogers: But it was OK. Because I was 22 and graduated from college...And was drink when I told them....
	5:46pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Sacrifice" by "Sleez Sisters" This one is really good
	5:47pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:46 These girls love the Deadboys!
	5:47pm Aitch: Tea (black) is better, same colour as the whiskey.
	5:49pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Aitch @5:47 My mom was Japanese so we only had green tea... But I'll make sure to hide to black tea somewhere where the kids can't find it! ;)
	5:51pm Mike Rogers: Actually, I was surprised my dad never caught on... I think I stopped drinking from 12 years old ~ 20 or so.
	5:51pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Love with a Prostitute" by "Su Ko D Koi" This one's pretty interesting - started off a typical Ramones rip (which is ok by me) but then went in all kinds of directions. I'm dizzy.
	5:52pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @5:51 This song is banned on Japanese FM radio. No kidding.
	5:53pm Mike Rogers: The FM station I am on refused to let me play it this week!
	5:54pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mike Rogers @5:52 Well that song title certainly points to another interesting thing about that song. I can only imagine what it's about...
	5:57pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @5:54 You'd be surprised. That band sings songs like 50s bands, "He hit me and it felt like a kiss" really. Those kinds of lyrics... I'll play one of their fr¥irst hits next.... People write to the station and saind they were crying listening to this song
	5:58pm mochy: Su凸koD凹koi→suttodokkoi
	5:58pm Hunterian: ↳ Song: "Love with a Prostitute" by "Su Ko D Koi" 風俗嬢との恋 amazing song
	5:59pm mochy: That's a good song.
	6:00pm Domenic: ↳ Song: "Anything Goes" by "Tetsuko" interesting story! thanks
	6:01pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @5:58 いいえない！
	6:01pm mochy: It's like an ugly cute love story.
	6:01pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Hunterian @5:58 Hunterian san!　Good Morning! Thank you!
	6:01pm Feldy: Hey Mike san! Check out that poster!
	6:02pm Mr Fab: Can't tell if they're being ironic or satirical.
	6:04pm Domenic: Can these dogs stick their stupid precious heads out the windows?
	6:06pm Andres: I blame Totoro. They saw that cat bus and then the dogs demanded some sort of equivalent.
	6:06pm Feldy: One of my favorite The Onion news stories is "Local Dog Doesn't Know It Just Graduated" and a photo of a dog with a grad cap on
	6:07pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Feldy @6:01 What poster???
	6:08pm Domenic: ↳ Feldy @6:06 if you eat enough homework.....
	6:09pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:02 No. It's not a joke here in Japan. People here take their dogs for walks by letting them ride in carriages (like Baby carts)... My neighbor (who has a dg, of course) told me that other neighbors dogs were "stuck Up!" No kidding.
	6:10pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Domenic @6:04 Of course! poochy gets to stick his head out the window. Oh, isn't he so cute?
	6:10pm Feldy: ↳ Mike Rogers @6:07 Grapefruit!
	6:11pm mochy: Certainly recently There are a lot of people who wear clothes to small dogs.
	6:11pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Feldy @6:06 Maybe that photo was taken before he received his diploma?
	6:12pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @6:11 It's on the song list (Of course, every week!)
	6:12pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Feldy @6:01 Oh good morning Feldy san!!!!!
	6:13pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Andres @6:06 Andres san! Good morning! I saw that cartoon when my son was small (weird assed cartoon!)
	6:13pm Feldy: The price of that dog bus trip is crazy, but taking your dogs places is fun and social (for them as well as yourself)
	6:15pm Andres: ↳ Feldy @6:13 I bet it also has potential for meeting a future spouse, assuming the dogs get along of course.
	6:16pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Feldy @6:13 I take my dog out for a smoke everyday.... But it seems he doesn't like cigarettes!
	6:17pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Andres @6:15 Hmmm? Maybe, but usually only married and old people have dogs in Japan. Dogs are VERY expensive here. Like $1000 for a puppy! No kidding.... mUch more if you buy from a pet store!
	6:18pm mochy: るせるせ〜ジャパンインディーズアワードのライブはみんなでるせるせしましょう！
	6:18pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Feldy @6:13 My dog doesn't know he is a dog. He hates all other dogs. No kidding. But what can I say? He is actually my wife's dog (and she is used to Japanese way!)
	6:19pm Andres: ↳ Mike Rogers @6:17 Not too far off prices for certain breeds or mixes here. But many more single people with dogs here. The dog park dating/pickup scene is real!
	6:20pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @6:18 Yeah! I'm looking so much forward to Japan Indies Music Awards. Tetsuko will headline... I am hoping this is the night she breaks big!!!!!!
	6:20pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Andres @6:19 Really? I have heard that before. Dog dating? I wonder if dogs are embarrassed when they have t take a dump in front of humans?
	6:21pm mochy: I'll be at work soon. Saitama is raining a little. Thank you very much😊
	6:21pm Mike Rogers: When I was a kid, we raised many dogs, but those dogs were for hunting ducks & pheasants... Not s much for pets...
	6:22pm Mike Rogers: Mochy san! It's raining? AGAIN!
	6:22pm mochy: ruse ruse ruse〜
	6:22pm mochy: そうです。二子玉は？
	6:24pm Mike Rogers: Going to start soon!
	6:24pm Mike Rogers: I LOVE this Japanese rock!!!!
	6:25pm Andres: ↳ Mike Rogers @6:20 Ha! Dating for the people. Pet dog is the icebreaker/prop.
	6:26pm Mike Rogers: Who cares if it's difficult to pick out what they are singing about (I need several listens to do so, and many times I still can't!) But that's like real rock & roll!!!
	6:27pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Andres @6:25 This is serious, I knew a guy who used to walk around town pulling a vacuum cleaner. No kidding.
	6:27pm Mike Rogers: And that was in Japan.
	6:27pm mochy: マイクさんありがとうございました
	6:28pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @6:27 Thanks Mochy san! がんばって！
	6:31pm Mike Rogers: Oh, my baby!
	6:33pm mochy: ありがとうございます！
	6:33pm Mike Rogers: ↳ mochy @6:33 tondemonai!
	6:35pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Tsukikaage no Rendevous" by "Keiko Mari" loved it, that was so groovy mod kitschy. Do you have more stuff like it, Mike?
	6:36pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:35 Oh, I have a half ton of that kind fo stuff. You want it? "Oh, my daring?"
	6:38pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mike Rogers @6:36 If it's as good as that tune, heck yeah, I'll take it!
	6:40pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:38 Well, I send you the entire compilation today... There's lots of samba, and weird stuff on their... Never hits on Japanese radio... You know "Nippon Girls" series?
	6:41pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:38 It's kinda like Nuggets or Pebbles but Japanese pop (not big stars)
	6:41pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:38 Well there a are a few big stars, but these are definitley not their hits
	6:43pm Mr Fab: I do have some of those, maybe..? Not coming up in my hard drive search.
	6:43pm Mike Rogers: Kind of like Frank Sinatra singing about golfing or BBQ'ing.
	6:47pm Mike Rogers: ↳ Mr Fab @6:43 Oh, god. I have so many massive hard drives too... I know I have some songs, but can't find them... Then it is a pain in the neck to rip the CDs again.　Gotta even find the CDs (they are in order, but not perfect order! Some CDs I've been looking for for months!)
	6:50pm Mike Rogers: And I screwed up because put film projects and music stuff on the same hard drives, so I can't remember where I put something... Then have to plug them in again and search... Unplug them, and plug in a new one...
	6:51pm Mike Rogers: Feldy san! Did you see the poster??? It's so fab. We are going to win best poster award at Raindance! You'll see (I mean if they will do that this year!)
	6:58pm Mr Fab: BYYYEEE!
