	10:01pm Mike Lupica: Welcome, pitcrew! Scott, I trust you made it back from Bonerfeast w/o contracting the dreaded Boner Flu?
	10:02pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:01 Homer voice---> "Mmmmm.... future tuna..."
	🥁 10:02pm Chop Scott: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:01 I am intact!
	10:03pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Chop Scott @10:02 Whew! Now you can just catch Starlite Lounge Lung like the rest of us.
	🥁 10:03pm Alex from Media: ↳ Yvang @10:00 Yvang! Glad you're here. I had a rough ride with the double vax last night. Might want to split it up.
	10:04pm Ike: I got the 'VID booster recently and from what everyone's reporting, I expected some bad shit, but it was fine.
	🥁 10:05pm egal: yeehaw.
	10:06pm Mike Lupica: ↳ egal @10:05 So say we all.
	10:07pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "Hey Merle" by "Tampico Bombers" This is my favorite shit-kickin' twang record of 2024. (Checks notes and confirms it is really the ONLY shit-kickin' twang record I've spent any time with this year.)
	🥁 10:08pm Yvang: ↳ Alex from Media @10:03 Hey Alex! I hope it's over, vaxwise and viruswise for you.
	🥁 10:09pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:02 yess....just about an hour into the future luckily... have had no reactions fro vaxxes
	10:10pm spodiodi: Greetings, Mike and all
	🥁 10:10pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Jeepster" by "Electrik Cokernut" The mandatory fartsy synth!
	🥁 10:11pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Jeepster" by "Electrik Cokernut" these covers are all only about a year old when record was made...kinda on the ball
	10:11pm Mike Lupica: I've done fine with all the vaxxes except for the second shingles shot, which I absent-mindedly paired with a Very Special Gummy and thusly spent the following 36 hours in puddle form.
	10:11pm Mike Lupica: ↳ spodiodi @10:10 Welcome!
	🥁 10:11pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Jeepster" by "Electrik Cokernut" I gotta say the titles included in this comp are intriguing.
	10:11pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @10:10 It must be Saturday!
	10:12pm Ike: Is a Jeepster an extra-shitty Jeep, or a reformed Jeep, or no kind of Jeep at all?
	10:13pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Ike @10:12 None of the above! en.wikipedia.org...
	🥁 10:14pm tom tom the pipers son: think it has to do with this Eugene the Jeep was a small, magical creature in the Popeye cartoons who could go anywhere and do anything. The Willys-Overland company chose the name "Jeep" for their new line of military vehicles, which were designed to be tough and capable of handling any terrain.
	10:14pm StringOFperils: Hey, good evening bunker-dwellers! Hi, Mike!
	🥁 10:14pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:14 say more the cartoon character
	10:16pm Mike Lupica: ↳ StringOFperils @10:14 Welcome back!
	10:17pm coelacanth∅: greetings Mike and all
	🥁 10:18pm tom tom the pipers son: hads a girlfriend with cats ....jeep....and spacely
	10:19pm Mike Lupica: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:17 Wow, Saturday Night Pitcrew's all here!
	🥁 10:27pm Alex from Media: Positive feedback! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
	10:27pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "Ramble Tamble" by "Creedence Clearwater Revival" NOW we're chooglin"!
	10:28pm Mike Lupica: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:27 The chooglinest choogle that ever there choogled. Or some such playful folly.
	10:28pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "Ramble Tamble" by "Creedence Clearwater Revival" I very much enjoy air-everything-ing to this song.
	10:28pm StringOFperils: Choogle 'til you're jeepstered
	10:30pm StringOFperils: Jeff Lebowski's sweater makes me laugh.
	10:30pm Mike Lupica: A wise friend of mine (who is also a former WFMU DJ of long ago) once enlightened me by saying: "Every aggro guitar band of the 1990s stands on the shoulders of 'Ramble Tamble' whether they know it or not." I've never forgotten this, and the fact that she was pretty drunk when she told me this has little impact on the revelatory truths of the statement.
	10:31pm Mike Lupica: ↳ StringOFperils @10:28 Hahaha! I sense a theme (or at least a pitcrew in-joke_) emerging.
	10:33pm coelacanth∅: i'm just a jeepster for your choogle
	🥁 10:34pm tom tom the pipers son: funny how creedence turned the choogling off for the instrumental section...
	🥁 10:34pm Pauly from Clifton: Hey Mike, gang! Ensconced with family in beautiful Montclair for a long weekend.
	🥁 10:35pm Pauly from Clifton: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:30 Concur. Cosmos Factory is an excellent rekkid.
	🥁 10:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:34 i didn't think they could help themselves to not choogle
	10:38pm StringOFperils: The Shoulders of Ramble Tamble ought to be a constellation, or some part a vital organ, or a single malt scotch.....or...a guitar pedal?
	10:39pm coelacanth∅: all the ccr albums are excellent (the 6 real ones) their i put a spell on you on the 1st one has a git solo that comes about as close to Hendrix as anyone besides Hendrix ever got
	10:44pm Mike Lupica: ↳ StringOFperils @10:38 Hard agree! Love this quotable quote!
	10:47pm StringOFperils: LOL. Yeah...that'd be a real ice breaker. Heh.
	🥁 10:52pm tom tom the pipers son: the hated...? i think they took things too personally...
	10:53pm StringOFperils: They all wore hats. And were misunderstood.
	10:54pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:52 I totally overlooked this band when they were functioning. Funny that all their stuff is now being re-upped by Numero. I think this is what the brief flash when Gen-X is calling the cultural shots looks like: Kamala Harris, rando 80s bands getting re-issued by Numero... and that's about it.
	🥁 10:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ StringOFperils @10:53 and that name was taken
	10:56pm David Shortell: Is that Bender depicted on top?
	10:57pm Mike Lupica: ↳ David Shortell @10:56 Ha! Proto-Bender for sure.
	🥁 10:57pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:54 hmm that's interesting analysis...the photo op of harris coming out of record shop....was real? what did she buy?
	10:58pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:57 She seemingly buys lots of vinyl. Lots of classic Blue Note Jazz and soul. And you know what? I'll fuckin' take it.
	🥁 10:58pm Alex from Media: Still not getting a satisfactory answer of what exactly an aggro guitar band is from the interwebs. Little help...
	10:59pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "Where You Live" by "Government Issue" I hope you all appreciate that John Stabb is headbanging in time with this song...
	🥁 10:59pm Roberto: Mike, because you mandated it, I'm about to hotwire the big cash money wad to WFMU.
	11:00pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @10:58 Tune in to my Singles Going Steady (all 45s) show week on 10/14. All shall be revealed!
	11:00pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @10:59 Right on! Thank you Roberto!
	11:01pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:00 * week OF
	🥁 11:02pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:58 i'm just glad i'm not running for president
	🥁 11:02pm Alex from Media: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:00 You're both a pitch man and a DJ it seems.
	11:02pm StringOFperils: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:02 I'm glad I'm not running from the President...yet.
	11:03pm StringOFperils: Scratch that....no politics. Srry.
	11:04pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @11:02 I can actually do both while suspended over a pit of lava and while playing a tiny saxophone.
	🥁 11:05pm tom tom the pipers son: ha! somehow i'm imagining that will be when we are all living in caves trying to "discover" fire again.... ; )
	🥁 11:09pm tom tom the pipers son: that tuna sandwich kinda hit the spot
	🥁 11:09pm Roberto: Aaaaaaand done.
	🥁 11:09pm Yvang: Eye want his shirt en.wikipedia.org...
	🥁 11:10pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Yvang @11:09 that is groovy...
	🥁 11:11pm Roberto: Yo I got a pumpkin an shit!
	11:11pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @11:09 The two left-most band members in that photo used to be in a band called the Drones who were booked to play on my show ~20 years ago but had to cancel at the last minute. Glad they are still at it -- this TFS record is FIERCE!
	🥁 11:14pm Yvang: Also : unusual ladies/gentleman proportion in a band.
	🥁 11:16pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Yvang @11:14 on the surface ...a little manson sex cult-ish.....ON THE SURFACE!!
	11:16pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @11:14 True. I think it's cool!
	🥁 11:17pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Dat is Mjn Verdriet" by "Wild Classical Music Ens... Like!
	11:17pm StringOFperils: That shirt is a total chic magnet
	🥁 11:21pm tom tom the pipers son: was it in feb 2003? iraq war protest ....2004...summer republican convention protests
	11:27pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:21 I'd have to check the deep archive files, but quite possibly.
	🥁 11:29pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Push n Shuv" by "Lava La Rue" sounds tom tom club to me... maybe crossed with "let the music play"
	11:32pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:29 Check their vids on YouTube. As a longtime student / fanboy of British Youth Culture (ranging from 60s skinhead reggae to post punk to grime), I see them as a total cultural benchmark that I fervently hope doesn't get overlooked. (Would say the same about Billy Nomates, who is playing as I type this...)
	🥁 11:33pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:32 interesting ...i'll look
	🥁 11:35pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Time to Go" by "Homeboy Sandman" 😮genre switch there was great.
	11:36pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @11:35 Hat tip. Also, Buddy Fo samples were not on my 2024 bingo card.
	🥁 11:42pm tom tom the pipers son: Not NYT Junk Poetry The Doorman of the Wreck of a Ghost Ship Worries About Their Future Alleging Layoffs, Mergers and Ego Clashes of a Fly Brain in Stunning Detail While Moving Into Disaster-Prone Areas Embracing Record Levels of Oil and Gas and Wants to Create the Crypto Capital of the Planet With The Crushing Power of Corporate Meat In The Only Patriotic Choice of Battle of the Network Co-Stars
	11:44pm StringOFperils: Eggsellent
	🥁 11:45pm Yvang: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:42 You blow my fly mind!
	11:45pm Mike Lupica: "Crushing Power of Corporate Meat" = a parable for our times.
	🥁 11:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Yvang @11:45 haha....thx
	🥁 11:47pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Punks Get Off the Grass" by "Edith Massey" This is from 1982. I'm sure I heard it on Dr. Demento.
	11:47pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @11:47 That definitely tracks.
	🥁 11:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:45 that phrase was lifted 'whole hog' from the paper...i just exploited it's ambiguity
	🥁 11:48pm Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:47 So either the album title is wrong or you mistyped.
	11:49pm StringOFperils: ↳ Roberto @11:47 DISCOGS has the single form, yes! 1982. That was the B side of Big Girls Don't Cry
	11:49pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @11:48 The song is from '82, but it was included on a (more recent) comp (which is what I played.)
	🥁 11:50pm Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:49 Curious. Well, just making sure I get my money's worth. I specified in my donation that some of it should go towards more-accu playlists.
	11:51pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @11:50 Noted!
	🥁 11:55pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Into The Void" by "Edmund Welles" Luv me some bassoon, cue the Ray Harryhausen skeletons.
	🥁 11:55pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:51 y'know mike, there's just so much misinformation the universe can bear...dating an edith massey record "incorrectly" might just swing the election in trump's favor....y'know a butterfly's wings in bali....
	🥁 11:56pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Alex from Media @11:55 that would be a nice gif
	11:57pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:55 We all live on the knife's edge.
	🥁 11:58pm Roberto: One of my best friends was an exceptional bassoonist! Until the accident, that is.
	12:00am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @11:58 I'm not even 100% sure what a bassoon sounds like. Or looks like, for that matter. No wonder I got kicked out of HS band.
	🥁 12:03am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:00 it looks like a diggeridoo w/ accoutrements
	🥁 12:07am Roberto: Gimme pizza, p-i-z-z-a
	🥁 12:08am Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:00 It's big and bassoonish.
	🥁 12:09am Roberto: The stories coming out about Kris are nuts! I had no idea he did all that.
	12:11am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:09 It's just Willie now. Everyone else is gone. 🥲🥲🥲🥲
	12:15am Mike Lupica: Unrelated: Indian pizza is a gift from god. I hope they have it where you live.
	🥁 12:21am Yvang: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:15 They don't but I'll suggest they add the tikka massala to the menu next time my friday pizza truck is there.
	🥁 12:23am Yvang: ...Which is next friday as you can guess.
	12:24am Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @12:23 Excelsior!
	12:28am Mike Lupica: Hey, we hit double digits on our pledge count! Well done, pitcrew! This round's on the house!
	🥁 12:29am Alex from Media: Gotta tap out. Running on FOMO for the last half hour. Thanks for the show Mike! Cheers all!
	12:29am Mike Lupica: If we get 57 more bucks pledged tonight, Station Manager Ken will UP my goal to a STRETCH figure.
	12:30am Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @12:29 Peas out, Alex. See you off with some Mary Timony.
	🥁 12:34am Yvang: ↳ Song: "No Thirds" by "Mary Timony" Sounds like a hit!
	12:35am Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @12:34 Truth!
	🥁 12:37am Yvang: ↳ Song: "Night Boat to Cairo" by "Madness" Hit after hit!
	🥁 12:37am tom tom the pipers son: @ mike....you have not "filled us in" ...have you?
	🥁 12:38am Roberto: ↳ Song: "Night Boat to Cairo" by "Madness" Oi!
	12:38am Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @12:37 This randomly popped in my Youtube feed this week. Has been stuck in my head ever since.
	12:38am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:37 ??
	🥁 12:38am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:38 hinky dinky
	12:40am Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @12:38 Ahh! Yes, Uncle Michael will be filling in for me here for me next week. I'll be back with my all-45 show for Singles Going Steady week the Saturday afterwards.
	🥁 12:42am tom tom the pipers son: speaking of youtube....i mentioned a video that i had not watched in years on the fmu chatboard and a couple days later it shows up on my you tube feed....as yvang pointed out elsewhere, you leave a digital trail no matter where you go on the web
	🥁 12:42am Yvang: The three musicians on the gif were probably thinking : "we have too many girls in the audience, let's figure out something".
	🥁 12:44am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Yvang @12:42 and the ladies ripped off their trenchcoats and viola!
	🥁 12:45am Roberto: Catch you in two weeks, not-Uncle Michael!
	12:46am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:45 Indeed! If all goes according to plan, I'll have the Starlite Lounge webcam up and running for the Singles Going Steady show.
	12:47am spodiodi: Thank you, Mike!
	12:49am Mike Lupica: ↳ spodiodi @12:47 Cheers -- thanks for hanging out tonight!

	🥁 12:52am Yvang: Thank you, Mike! Excellent unthemed show!

	🥁 10:10pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Jeepster" by "Electrik Cokernut" The mandatory fartsy synth!
	🥁 10:11pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Jeepster" by "Electrik Cokernut" these covers are all only about a year old when record was made...kinda on the ball
	10:11pm Mike Lupica: I've done fine with all the vaxxes except for the second shingles shot, which I absent-mindedly paired with a Very Special Gummy and thusly spent the following 36 hours in puddle form.
	10:11pm Mike Lupica: ↳ spodiodi @10:10 Welcome!
	🥁 10:11pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Jeepster" by "Electrik Cokernut" I gotta say the titles included in this comp are intriguing.
	10:11pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @10:10 It must be Saturday!
	10:12pm Ike: Is a Jeepster an extra-shitty Jeep, or a reformed Jeep, or no kind of Jeep at all?
	10:13pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Ike @10:12 None of the above! en.wikipedia.org...
	🥁 10:14pm tom tom the pipers son: think it has to do with this Eugene the Jeep was a small, magical creature in the Popeye cartoons who could go anywhere and do anything. The Willys-Overland company chose the name "Jeep" for their new line of military vehicles, which were designed to be tough and capable of handling any terrain.
	10:14pm StringOFperils: Hey, good evening bunker-dwellers! Hi, Mike!
	🥁 10:14pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:14 say more the cartoon character
	10:16pm Mike Lupica: ↳ StringOFperils @10:14 Welcome back!
	10:17pm coelacanth∅: greetings Mike and all
	🥁 10:18pm tom tom the pipers son: hads a girlfriend with cats ....jeep....and spacely
	10:19pm Mike Lupica: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:17 Wow, Saturday Night Pitcrew's all here!
	🥁 10:27pm Alex from Media: Positive feedback! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
	10:27pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "Ramble Tamble" by "Creedence Clearwater Revival" NOW we're chooglin"!
	10:28pm Mike Lupica: ↳ coelacanth∅ @10:27 The chooglinest choogle that ever there choogled. Or some such playful folly.
	10:28pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "Ramble Tamble" by "Creedence Clearwater Revival" I very much enjoy air-everything-ing to this song.
	10:28pm StringOFperils: Choogle 'til you're jeepstered
	10:30pm StringOFperils: Jeff Lebowski's sweater makes me laugh.
	10:30pm Mike Lupica: A wise friend of mine (who is also a former WFMU DJ of long ago) once enlightened me by saying: "Every aggro guitar band of the 1990s stands on the shoulders of 'Ramble Tamble' whether they know it or not." I've never forgotten this, and the fact that she was pretty drunk when she told me this has little impact on the revelatory truths of the statement.
	10:31pm Mike Lupica: ↳ StringOFperils @10:28 Hahaha! I sense a theme (or at least a pitcrew in-joke_) emerging.
	10:33pm coelacanth∅: i'm just a jeepster for your choogle
	🥁 10:34pm tom tom the pipers son: funny how creedence turned the choogling off for the instrumental section...
	🥁 10:34pm Pauly from Clifton: Hey Mike, gang! Ensconced with family in beautiful Montclair for a long weekend.
	🥁 10:35pm Pauly from Clifton: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:30 Concur. Cosmos Factory is an excellent rekkid.
	🥁 10:36pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:34 i didn't think they could help themselves to not choogle
	10:38pm StringOFperils: The Shoulders of Ramble Tamble ought to be a constellation, or some part a vital organ, or a single malt scotch.....or...a guitar pedal?
	10:39pm coelacanth∅: all the ccr albums are excellent (the 6 real ones) their i put a spell on you on the 1st one has a git solo that comes about as close to Hendrix as anyone besides Hendrix ever got
	10:44pm Mike Lupica: ↳ StringOFperils @10:38 Hard agree! Love this quotable quote!
	10:47pm StringOFperils: LOL. Yeah...that'd be a real ice breaker. Heh.
	🥁 10:52pm tom tom the pipers son: the hated...? i think they took things too personally...
	10:53pm StringOFperils: They all wore hats. And were misunderstood.
	10:54pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:52 I totally overlooked this band when they were functioning. Funny that all their stuff is now being re-upped by Numero. I think this is what the brief flash when Gen-X is calling the cultural shots looks like: Kamala Harris, rando 80s bands getting re-issued by Numero... and that's about it.
	🥁 10:54pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ StringOFperils @10:53 and that name was taken
	10:56pm David Shortell: Is that Bender depicted on top?
	10:57pm Mike Lupica: ↳ David Shortell @10:56 Ha! Proto-Bender for sure.
	🥁 10:57pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:54 hmm that's interesting analysis...the photo op of harris coming out of record shop....was real? what did she buy?
	10:58pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:57 She seemingly buys lots of vinyl. Lots of classic Blue Note Jazz and soul. And you know what? I'll fuckin' take it.
	🥁 10:58pm Alex from Media: Still not getting a satisfactory answer of what exactly an aggro guitar band is from the interwebs. Little help...
	10:59pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "Where You Live" by "Government Issue" I hope you all appreciate that John Stabb is headbanging in time with this song...
	🥁 10:59pm Roberto: Mike, because you mandated it, I'm about to hotwire the big cash money wad to WFMU.
	11:00pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @10:58 Tune in to my Singles Going Steady (all 45s) show week on 10/14. All shall be revealed!
	11:00pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @10:59 Right on! Thank you Roberto!
	11:01pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:00 * week OF
	🥁 11:02pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:58 i'm just glad i'm not running for president
	🥁 11:02pm Alex from Media: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:00 You're both a pitch man and a DJ it seems.
	11:02pm StringOFperils: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:02 I'm glad I'm not running from the President...yet.
	11:03pm StringOFperils: Scratch that....no politics. Srry.
	11:04pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @11:02 I can actually do both while suspended over a pit of lava and while playing a tiny saxophone.
	🥁 11:05pm tom tom the pipers son: ha! somehow i'm imagining that will be when we are all living in caves trying to "discover" fire again.... ; )
	🥁 11:09pm tom tom the pipers son: that tuna sandwich kinda hit the spot
	🥁 11:09pm Roberto: Aaaaaaand done.
	🥁 11:09pm Yvang: Eye want his shirt en.wikipedia.org...
	🥁 11:10pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Yvang @11:09 that is groovy...
	🥁 11:11pm Roberto: Yo I got a pumpkin an shit!
	11:11pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @11:09 The two left-most band members in that photo used to be in a band called the Drones who were booked to play on my show ~20 years ago but had to cancel at the last minute. Glad they are still at it -- this TFS record is FIERCE!
	🥁 11:14pm Yvang: Also : unusual ladies/gentleman proportion in a band.
	🥁 11:16pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Yvang @11:14 on the surface ...a little manson sex cult-ish.....ON THE SURFACE!!
	11:16pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @11:14 True. I think it's cool!
	🥁 11:17pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Dat is Mjn Verdriet" by "Wild Classical Music Ens... Like!
	11:17pm StringOFperils: That shirt is a total chic magnet
	🥁 11:21pm tom tom the pipers son: was it in feb 2003? iraq war protest ....2004...summer republican convention protests
	11:27pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:21 I'd have to check the deep archive files, but quite possibly.
	🥁 11:29pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Push n Shuv" by "Lava La Rue" sounds tom tom club to me... maybe crossed with "let the music play"
	11:32pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:29 Check their vids on YouTube. As a longtime student / fanboy of British Youth Culture (ranging from 60s skinhead reggae to post punk to grime), I see them as a total cultural benchmark that I fervently hope doesn't get overlooked. (Would say the same about Billy Nomates, who is playing as I type this...)
	🥁 11:33pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:32 interesting ...i'll look
	🥁 11:35pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Time to Go" by "Homeboy Sandman" 😮genre switch there was great.
	11:36pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @11:35 Hat tip. Also, Buddy Fo samples were not on my 2024 bingo card.
	🥁 11:42pm tom tom the pipers son: Not NYT Junk Poetry The Doorman of the Wreck of a Ghost Ship Worries About Their Future Alleging Layoffs, Mergers and Ego Clashes of a Fly Brain in Stunning Detail While Moving Into Disaster-Prone Areas Embracing Record Levels of Oil and Gas and Wants to Create the Crypto Capital of the Planet With The Crushing Power of Corporate Meat In The Only Patriotic Choice of Battle of the Network Co-Stars
	11:44pm StringOFperils: Eggsellent
	🥁 11:45pm Yvang: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:42 You blow my fly mind!
	11:45pm Mike Lupica: "Crushing Power of Corporate Meat" = a parable for our times.
	🥁 11:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Yvang @11:45 haha....thx
	🥁 11:47pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Punks Get Off the Grass" by "Edith Massey" This is from 1982. I'm sure I heard it on Dr. Demento.
	11:47pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @11:47 That definitely tracks.
	🥁 11:47pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:45 that phrase was lifted 'whole hog' from the paper...i just exploited it's ambiguity
	🥁 11:48pm Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:47 So either the album title is wrong or you mistyped.
	11:49pm StringOFperils: ↳ Roberto @11:47 DISCOGS has the single form, yes! 1982. That was the B side of Big Girls Don't Cry
	11:49pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @11:48 The song is from '82, but it was included on a (more recent) comp (which is what I played.)
	🥁 11:50pm Roberto: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:49 Curious. Well, just making sure I get my money's worth. I specified in my donation that some of it should go towards more-accu playlists.
	11:51pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @11:50 Noted!
	🥁 11:55pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Into The Void" by "Edmund Welles" Luv me some bassoon, cue the Ray Harryhausen skeletons.
	🥁 11:55pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:51 y'know mike, there's just so much misinformation the universe can bear...dating an edith massey record "incorrectly" might just swing the election in trump's favor....y'know a butterfly's wings in bali....
	🥁 11:56pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Alex from Media @11:55 that would be a nice gif
	11:57pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:55 We all live on the knife's edge.
	🥁 11:58pm Roberto: One of my best friends was an exceptional bassoonist! Until the accident, that is.
	12:00am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @11:58 I'm not even 100% sure what a bassoon sounds like. Or looks like, for that matter. No wonder I got kicked out of HS band.
	🥁 12:03am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:00 it looks like a diggeridoo w/ accoutrements
	🥁 12:07am Roberto: Gimme pizza, p-i-z-z-a

	12:15am Mike Lupica: Unrelated: Indian pizza is a gift from god. I hope they have it where you live.
	🥁 12:21am Yvang: ↳ Mike Lupica @12:15 They don't but I'll suggest they add the tikka massala to the menu next time my friday pizza truck is there.
	🥁 12:23am Yvang: ...Which is next friday as you can guess.
	12:24am Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @12:23 Excelsior!
	12:28am Mike Lupica: Hey, we hit double digits on our pledge count! Well done, pitcrew! This round's on the house!
	🥁 12:29am Alex from Media: Gotta tap out. Running on FOMO for the last half hour. Thanks for the show Mike! Cheers all!
	12:29am Mike Lupica: If we get 57 more bucks pledged tonight, Station Manager Ken will UP my goal to a STRETCH figure.
	12:30am Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @12:29 Peas out, Alex. See you off with some Mary Timony.
	🥁 12:34am Yvang: ↳ Song: "No Thirds" by "Mary Timony" Sounds like a hit!
	12:35am Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @12:34 Truth!
	🥁 12:37am Yvang: ↳ Song: "Night Boat to Cairo" by "Madness" Hit after hit!

	🥁 12:42am tom tom the pipers son: speaking of youtube....i mentioned a video that i had not watched in years on the fmu chatboard and a couple days later it shows up on my you tube feed....as yvang pointed out elsewhere, you leave a digital trail no matter where you go on the web
	🥁 12:42am Yvang: The three musicians on the gif were probably thinking : "we have too many girls in the audience, let's figure out something".
	🥁 12:44am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Yvang @12:42 and the ladies ripped off their trenchcoats and viola!
	🥁 12:45am Roberto: Catch you in two weeks, not-Uncle Michael!
	12:46am Mike Lupica: ↳ Roberto @12:45 Indeed! If all goes according to plan, I'll have the Starlite Lounge webcam up and running for the Singles Going Steady show.
