	1:01pm doctorjazz: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @1:01 Hi Andrew!
	1:02pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "I've Been Everywhere" by "Johnny Cash" All right!
	1:05pm WR: ↳ Song: "I've Been Everywhere" by "Johnny Cash" en.wikipedia.org... Just found out from Wikipedia that song was written by an Australian about Australia and then adapted for the USA.
	1:06pm Michael 98145: Speaking of road songs, gonna be 114F in Fresno this weekend.
	1:08pm Dan S: ↳ WR @1:05 Interesting. Someone should find and play the Australian version sometime. They've got some great-sounding place names there.
	1:09pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Get Your Kicks On) Route 66" by "Nat King Cole" Ah, the Nat trio. Classy.
	1:11pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "See The USA" by "Chevrolet Motors" I remember this ad when it was new. I'm dating myself.
	1:14pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Get Your Kicks On) Route 66" by "Nat King Cole" Love the Cole!
	1:15pm Tamar: Greetings, Summer and Michael and Sylvia, and Dan S and doctorjazz!
	1:24pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Deep in the Heart of Jersey" by "Cowboy Charlie" That's where I be!
	1:25pm TDK60: ↳ doctorjazz @1:24 Howdy! pardner docjazz.
	1:25pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Deep in the Heart of Jersey" by "Cowboy Charlie" Let's hear it for Uncle Floyd!
	1:26pm Michael 98145: Food Fest is the best way to celebrate the Fourth
	1:27pm doctorjazz: ↳ TDK60 @1:25 Howdy Mister Tapeman!
	1:27pm Michael 98145: and watching cartoons
	1:28pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Connie's Got Connections In Connecticut" by "Hoos... ;- )
	1:28pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "Connie's Got Connections In Connecticut" by "Hoos... The Hoosier Hot Shots are always appropriate.
	1:29pm Webhamster Henry: There are a whole buncha good state songs on John Linnell's Sate Songs record.
	1:39pm TDK60: I just read that the English in pre-US days called most of the Eastern seacoast Virginia.
	1:41pm Tamar: ↳ Webhamster Henry @1:29 Oh yes, the question is which one(s)?
	1:46pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Tamar @1:41 I'm kind of partial to Montana.
	1:49pm Dan S: You're covering all the American bases today, Tamar. Good job!
	1:51pm doctorjazz: Gotta run, thanks for the great trip Tamar!
	1:52pm Dean: https://www.nps.gov/articles/000/smith-map-of-virginia.htm
	1:55pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Rocky Mountain High" by "John Denver" Much put down and parodied, but it is a nice song, IMHO.
	1:56pm TDK60: ↳ Dan S @1:55 Dan, it's a good song.
	1:58pm Dean: If it weren't so long--approaching 40 minutes--Delius' Florida Suite would be nice.
	2:00pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "The Ten Commandments" by "George Carlin" All gods are pretty strange.
	2:03pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "The Ten Commandments" by "George Carlin" Are you listening, Louisiana? :)
	2:04pm Dean: Halle-fuckin'-lujah, George!
	2:05pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Oklahoma!" by "Alfred Drake, Joan Roberts, and Ch... Soon you'll be in Acid Jazz Hands territory, Tamar! :)
	2:05pm Bas NL: Hi Tamar! Great to have you filling in for David! Hi all!
	2:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "The Ten Commandments" by "George Carlin" i.pinimg.com...
	2:10pm rich: 10 commandments louisiana bible oklahoma though that includes the 10 commandments
	2:11pm Dean: @rich: Correct.
	2:14pm Dean: But then Jonathan moved to Marin, thence to Chico, CA.
	2:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Boston Beguine" by "Alice Ghostley" ...almost thot JudyGarland...
	2:20pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @2:14 I saw Johnathan talking about why he loved The Boston Museum of Fine Art. It was not the Cezanne's, but the girls from B.U. looking at the Cezanne's.
	2:21pm Dean: Jonathan: "Get a load o' them apples!"
	2:22pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Song: "Boston Beguine" by "Alice Ghostley" Wait, THAT Alice Ghostly? (or Ghostley?)
	2:23pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Jeff Moore @2:22 Yep! She was a NYC Revuer!
	2:23pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Franco Twinkie @2:20 I totally get that.
	2:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Franco Twinkie @2:20 ...gotta get 'em when they're young & Impressionismable...
	2:24pm Dan S: ↳ Franco Twinkie @2:20 Well, that was honest of him. Perhaps he had just read the Ten Commandments. :)
	2:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's ass. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife's ass.
	2:25pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:23 Cool! There are SO many people I know from doing speaking parts on the teevee whom I only realize decades later were singers or hoofers or full-on song and dance performers.
	2:26pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dan S @2:24 ....how did he put it - 'smoking French cigarette, long long hair, suede jackets, boots up to here...'
	2:28pm Dan S: ↳ Franco Twinkie @2:26 College co-ed look circa..?
	2:29pm Franco Twinkie: I'm thinking '69 -'70?
	2:30pm Dean: I would not tune out for Lynyrd Skynyrd, "Sweet Home Alabama."
	2:33pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @2:30 How about Los Angeles by X?
	2:34pm Dean: Nor that. It's one of the very few X songs I enjoy, another being their take on Dave Alvin's "Fourth of July."
	2:35pm Dan S: ↳ Dean @2:30 Or Warren Zevon's answer to it, "Play it all Night Long."
	2:36pm Dean: Minnesota's already covered, but an option was The Dictators' "Minnesota Strip." Word has it that Las Vegas won't be viva-ing a whole lot today.
	2:37pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Viva Las Vegas" by "Dead Kennedys" The Dead Kennedys do Elvis. Obviously. :)
	2:37pm Dean: Fear, "New York's Alright If You Like Saxophones"
	2:38pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @2:34 I managed to work Fourth of July into a set last Sunday. Hearing it coming out of big speakers, I realized I didn't like it as much as I thought I did.
	2:38pm Dean: X's or Dave's?
	2:39pm Franco Twinkie: X.
	2:40pm Dan S: I don't think we've heard any NY songs yet. Something by Lou Reed, maybe?
	2:40pm Tamar: Hi Dean, Jeff, Bas and Franco!
	2:40pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Viva! Sea-Tac" by "Robyn Hitchcock" This is clever.
	2:42pm Funky16Corners: Hi Tamar! Testify! coming up at 3PM ET: wfmu.org...
	2:42pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Tamar @2:40 Hi Tamar! Great show today.
	2:44pm Andrew in Toronto: What a wonderful show! Thanks, Tamar!
	2:45pm Dean: Heh.
	2:46pm Dean: Mark Lindsay, "Arizona"
	2:46pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Los Angeles" by "X" I love you Tamar!
	2:47pm Yvang: Great american show! Pure Joy! Thanks Tamar!
	2:48pm Dean: More suitable than Delius, I agree.
	2:49pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Tallahassee Lassie" by "Freddy Cannon" To become the Fla state song?
	2:51pm chresti: Thanks for the state-by-state tour, Tamar!
	2:54pm Dan S: A great show for July 4th, Tamar! Thanks so much for coming in on this holiday! If you're heading out afterward to the Jersey City festivities, enjoy! Whatever you're going to do, stay safe!
	2:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Mississippi God-Damn" by "Nina Simone" Still relevant, still painfully true.
	2:56pm WR: Great topical episode. Thank you!
	2:57pm Dean: And here I thought we'd be treated to Nina's lament about Randy Newman's "Baltimore." She was not a fan of the album that included the track.
	3:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Tamar ~
	3:00pm kev: Thanks try and keep your fingers
	3:01pm Bas NL: Thanks Tamar!

	2:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "The Ten Commandments" by "George Carlin" i.pinimg.com...
	2:10pm rich: 10 commandments louisiana bible oklahoma though that includes the 10 commandments
	2:11pm Dean: @rich: Correct.
	2:14pm Dean: But then Jonathan moved to Marin, thence to Chico, CA.
	2:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Boston Beguine" by "Alice Ghostley" ...almost thot JudyGarland...
	2:20pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @2:14 I saw Johnathan talking about why he loved The Boston Museum of Fine Art. It was not the Cezanne's, but the girls from B.U. looking at the Cezanne's.
	2:21pm Dean: Jonathan: "Get a load o' them apples!"
	2:22pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Song: "Boston Beguine" by "Alice Ghostley" Wait, THAT Alice Ghostly? (or Ghostley?)
	2:23pm Webhamster Henry: ↳ Jeff Moore @2:22 Yep! She was a NYC Revuer!
	2:23pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Franco Twinkie @2:20 I totally get that.
	2:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Franco Twinkie @2:20 ...gotta get 'em when they're young & Impressionismable...
	2:24pm Dan S: ↳ Franco Twinkie @2:20 Well, that was honest of him. Perhaps he had just read the Ten Commandments. :)
	2:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's ass. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife. Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife's ass.
	2:25pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Webhamster Henry @2:23 Cool! There are SO many people I know from doing speaking parts on the teevee whom I only realize decades later were singers or hoofers or full-on song and dance performers.
	2:26pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dan S @2:24 ....how did he put it - 'smoking French cigarette, long long hair, suede jackets, boots up to here...'
	2:28pm Dan S: ↳ Franco Twinkie @2:26 College co-ed look circa..?
	2:29pm Franco Twinkie: I'm thinking '69 -'70?
	2:30pm Dean: I would not tune out for Lynyrd Skynyrd, "Sweet Home Alabama."
	2:33pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @2:30 How about Los Angeles by X?
	2:34pm Dean: Nor that. It's one of the very few X songs I enjoy, another being their take on Dave Alvin's "Fourth of July."
	2:35pm Dan S: ↳ Dean @2:30 Or Warren Zevon's answer to it, "Play it all Night Long."
	2:36pm Dean: Minnesota's already covered, but an option was The Dictators' "Minnesota Strip." Word has it that Las Vegas won't be viva-ing a whole lot today.
	2:37pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Viva Las Vegas" by "Dead Kennedys" The Dead Kennedys do Elvis. Obviously. :)
	2:37pm Dean: Fear, "New York's Alright If You Like Saxophones"
	2:38pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @2:34 I managed to work Fourth of July into a set last Sunday. Hearing it coming out of big speakers, I realized I didn't like it as much as I thought I did.
	2:38pm Dean: X's or Dave's?
	2:39pm Franco Twinkie: X.
	2:40pm Dan S: I don't think we've heard any NY songs yet. Something by Lou Reed, maybe?
	2:40pm Tamar: Hi Dean, Jeff, Bas and Franco!
	2:40pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Viva! Sea-Tac" by "Robyn Hitchcock" This is clever.
	2:42pm Funky16Corners: Hi Tamar! Testify! coming up at 3PM ET: wfmu.org...
	2:42pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Tamar @2:40 Hi Tamar! Great show today.
	2:44pm Andrew in Toronto: What a wonderful show! Thanks, Tamar!
	2:45pm Dean: Heh.
	2:46pm Dean: Mark Lindsay, "Arizona"
	2:46pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Los Angeles" by "X" I love you Tamar!
	2:47pm Yvang: Great american show! Pure Joy! Thanks Tamar!
	2:48pm Dean: More suitable than Delius, I agree.
	2:49pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Tallahassee Lassie" by "Freddy Cannon" To become the Fla state song?
	2:51pm chresti: Thanks for the state-by-state tour, Tamar!
	2:54pm Dan S: A great show for July 4th, Tamar! Thanks so much for coming in on this holiday! If you're heading out afterward to the Jersey City festivities, enjoy! Whatever you're going to do, stay safe!
	2:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Mississippi God-Damn" by "Nina Simone" Still relevant, still painfully true.
	2:56pm WR: Great topical episode. Thank you!
	2:57pm Dean: And here I thought we'd be treated to Nina's lament about Randy Newman's "Baltimore." She was not a fan of the album that included the track.
	3:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Tamar ~
	3:00pm kev: Thanks try and keep your fingers
	3:01pm Bas NL: Thanks Tamar!
