	👻 3:41pm DjLorraine: Gus may be an Ohm buds man!
	3:41pm The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Winter Baby / New Jersey Blues" by "070 Shake" Having that weird experience as a WFMU listener where I look up what I assume is an indie artist and learn they are actually massively popular and famous. Anyway, that was real cool.
	3:45pm Handy Haversack: ↳ The Oscar @3:41 At first I thought it was Jonathan Something, an extremely indie, Irwin-presented artist.
	3:48pm The Oscar: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:45 The biggest shock was Big Thief, who I assumed I'd find on a modest Bandcamp, only to discover shudder TikTok Discourse.
	3:48pm Carmichael: I see you're still on your Procul Harem kick, Irwin. Sorry I missed Homburg. Now, Spooky Tooth in the same show would be too much to ask, perhaps ...
	3:48pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Something Has Changed" by "Oscar Lang" It's wall-to-wall Oscars!
	👻 3:50pm d-_-b __Listener Jonny in MA: ↳ Song: "Something Has Changed" by "Oscar Lang" That's neat.
	👻 3:50pm egould: ↳ Song: "Something Has Changed" by "Oscar Lang" This is pleasant.
	3:51pm Irwin: ↳ egould @3:50 It's one of those perfect pop songs. Checks every box.
	3:52pm Irwin: ↳ Carmichael @3:48 Spooky Tooth -- right before Halloween? YMBJ.
	3:53pm Handy Haversack: Gotta get out of here and head home and collapse. Thanks, Irwin! Will catch the end of the shore from there if possible.
	👻 3:53pm estebangrande: ↳ Song: "A Long Goodbye" by "Mr. Griddles" hi Irwin, what's this little grooviness? i bet it's from the UK too
	3:53pm Picante Mint: ↳ Song: "A Long Goodbye" by "Mr. Griddles" This is great. Reminds me a bit of Ween's Pink Eye.
	3:53pm Irwin: ↳ estebangrande @3:53 Mystery artist!! Came out about 20 yrs ago.
	👻 3:54pm winston legthigh: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:53 stand clear of the closing doors!
	3:54pm Handy Haversack: ↳ winston legthigh @3:54 They best stand clear of ME!
	3:55pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Rain Dogs" by "Tom Waits" No fair, Irwin! I'm trying to get out of here!
	3:56pm Irwin: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:55 UR my prisoner.
	3:57pm Irwin: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:55 "Where's Handy? He should've been home an hour ago."
	3:57pm The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Rain Dogs" by "Tom Waits" It's been too long since I've listened to Mr. Waits. My wife hates his music, but loves him as an actor.
	3:58pm Matt from Springfield: Oh man, missed Gus because I got roped into a discussion of THEORY!! 😠 Hopefully the afternoon pathways are clear from here out...
	3:58pm Deano de los Muertos: is the human centipede from the UK still single? 🐛
	👻 3:59pm winston legthigh: theories about theory can be intense.
	👻 3:59pm estebangrande: ↳ The Oscar @3:57 he's great in that Musiquarium of Dr. Sardonicus
	4:00pm Joey C says: ↳ Song: "Rain Dogs" by "Tom Waits" Marc Ribot guitar. Special.
	👻 4:00pm zachary: ↳ Song: "Gus Wargames the Political Betting Markets" by "G... I missed it!
	4:01pm farce: Election?? What election? Bwa hahahaha let’s make a new reality!
	4:01pm The Oscar: ↳ estebangrande @3:59 I think my favorite might be The Ballad of Buster Scruggs-- I can't believe it took that long for someone to cast him as a grizzled gold prospector!
	👻 4:01pm estebangrande: ↳ The Oscar @4:01 so good in that role!
	4:02pm Cronbat: ↳ Song: "Rain Dogs" by "Tom Waits" Ah, Tom Waits/ I had misattributed that to Strongbad.
	👻 4:02pm DjLorraine: IKE! That cool cat on the move? ;)
	4:03pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ zachary @4:00 I as well - but TGFArchives!
	4:05pm UFOspecialist: How do I block images from this website? :)
	4:05pm Adi From Sheffield: Good evening.
	4:07pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ The Oscar @4:01 That movie seemed right up my alley, but had a really hard time getting through it for some reason. Need to give it another chance. I liked him as Renfield in Dracula.
	👻 4:08pm zachary: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:03 Hell, yeah! I love'em. It's what made me fall in love with WFMU.
	4:08pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ winston legthigh @3:59 "In theory there is no difference between theory and practice - in practice there is." - Yogi Berra
	👻 4:08pm zachary: Thanks for the jazz, Irwin.
	4:08pm Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Cronbat @4:02 Strongbad mentioned! 🥊
	👻 4:08pm egould: Everything I know about opera I learned from Bugs Bunny. Everything I know about jazz I learned from Irwin Chusid.
	👻 4:10pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:16 I know we all like Moondog here, but weather conditions are just right to produce sundogs this afternoon.
	4:10pm Irwin: ↳ egould @4:08 Carl Stalling was quite the musical educator. People miss that part of his genius.
	4:11pm UFOspecialist: ↳ egould @4:08 JA in the AM is my jazz teacher.
	4:11pm patrick321: Hey Irwin and all
	4:11pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:10 Sundogs - the more hot dog!
	👻 4:14pm winston legthigh: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:08 yogi-isms are so great!
	👻 4:18pm egould: ↳ Song: "The Maze" by "Herbie Hancock" Man, that Herbie Hancock blows a mean saxophone. Thanks Irwin.
	👻 4:18pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "The Maze" by "Herbie Hancock" Love this (Hancock played recently at NJPAC, but I had to miss it, sad)
	4:20pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "The Maze" by "Herbie Hancock" And Herbie - he's one who is jazz, but also so much more. Funk, Latin, electro, hip-hop...one of the true "fusers" out there.
	👻 4:20pm zachary: ↳ Song: "The Maze" by "Herbie Hancock" Good ol' Herbie and the boys.
	👻 4:21pm zachary: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:20 Gluing'em up. Epoxy, baby!
	4:21pm Irwin: ↳ egould @4:18 Herbie's one of the tenor greats, no?
	👻 4:21pm doctorjazz: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:20 I believe this current tour is with a fusion band.
	👻 4:22pm zachary: ↳ egould @4:18 Dexter Gordon is blowing on this song. Herbie is on the keys. en.wikipedia.org...
	👻 4:23pm zachary: ↳ Irwin @4:21 Tenor, baritone, bass, soprano--he plays all the keys.
	4:23pm Irwin: ↳ zachary @4:22 You're SO mistaken.
	👻 4:24pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "When All You Can Manage is a Sigh" by "Georgia Ge... Watermelon Man and Driftin'are 2 classics from this album.
	4:24pm Irwin: ↳ Irwin @4:23 I mean, c'mon!
	4:25pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "When All You Can Manage is a Sigh" by "Georgia Ge... Wow, lovely song from Georgia Gets By! Has a '70s singer-songwriter feel to it.
	4:25pm Irwin: ↳ zachary @4:22 You're pullen our leg. Stoppit!
	4:25pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ zachary @4:21 Gluing, welding, melding, however he does it, I like it!
	👻 4:26pm zachary: ↳ Irwin @4:25 Alright. Sorry, Irwin. I'll quite pullen. Ha!
	👻 4:27pm zachary: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:25 He does it all. Sometimes he just slaps it together for a dry fit and it sounds wonderful.
	4:29pm jan: ↳ Song: "Marcella" by "The Beach Boys" Hey is that Surf Music? Again?
	👻 4:36pm estebangrande: it was Bodenheim
	4:36pm PaulRobeson1924: Constant dehydration
	👻 4:36pm xtrakrispy: Jack has even more hot sauce in his basement.
	4:38pm Irwin: ↳ xtrakrispy @4:36 NO! In his basement he has "dusties." Look it up.
	4:38pm Carmichael: ↳ Song: "Art for Art’s Sake" by "10cc" The live version of this (Live in Japan '91) is wonderful.
	4:39pm Matt from OK: I prefer to think of myself as the custodian of an archive of rescued media.
	4:39pm Carmichael: ↳ Carmichael @4:38 It might be "Alive in Japan" ...
	4:39pm judy from croton: I'm just loving 10cc so much lately, Thank you, Irwin
	4:40pm Irwin: ↳ judy from croton @4:39 Masters of the songwriting craft.
	4:41pm Borg9: ↳ Song: "Art for Art’s Sake" by "10cc" Somewhere between Sparks and Steely Dan
	4:42pm KWilde: I tend to forget how great these 10cc records were
	👻 4:42pm winston legthigh: gotta skedaddle, thanks irwin and all!
	4:42pm Ike: Hi all! I was busy in the live music room taking a call from my doctor about how my arms are going to fall off if I do anything strenuous with them, so I’m just tuning in now. Have I missed anything important?
	👻 4:43pm winston legthigh: ↳ Song: "Big Bottom" by "Spinal Tap" I see a trend here.
	👻 4:43pm DjLorraine: π π π
	4:43pm Irwin: ↳ Ike @4:42 Nah. Saving all the good stuff for the final hour.
	👻 4:43pm estebangrande: ↳ Ike @4:42 hi Ike. you didn't miss this...
	👻 4:43pm zachary: ↳ Song: "Big Bottom" by "Spinal Tap" Ahhh. Spinal Tap.
	4:44pm coelacanth∅: is this kiss?
	4:44pm The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Big Bottom" by "Spinal Tap" TAP.
	4:44pm Irwin: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:44 Is this Prog?
	4:44pm coelacanth∅: nah, a little too sophisticated for kiss
	4:44pm Handy Haversack: Back in time for Spinal Tap!
	4:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Big Bottom" by "Spinal Tap" The prescient genius of Spinal Tap. People are into a butt & a half these days awlright...
	4:45pm The Oscar: ↳ Irwin @4:44 No, but "Jazz Odyssey" is.
	👻 4:45pm zachary: ↳ Song: "Big Bottom" by "Spinal Tap" Now I need to watch the documentary again.
	4:47pm coelacanth∅: i've never seen this is spinal tap. been on my list since it came out but i've never known anyone who wanted to see it (who hadn't already)
	4:47pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ winston legthigh @3:54 Please!
	4:47pm Hubig Pie: We pick Lenny Kravitz!
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:47 Absolutely brilliant. But I do wanna say ...TheRutles were earlier.
	👻 4:48pm zachary: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:47 You should really watch it. Great documentary about what of the most underrated metal bands of the 80s era. After you watch it, you should call in to Jim the Poet's show, Three Thumbs Up (Tuesdays, 6-7pm), and tell him what you thought.
	4:48pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:47 Always time to join the fan club! For the WFMU-inclined, it is essential viewing. I recommend.
	4:49pm listener 126464: My ride’s here
	4:49pm The Oscar: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:47 I was a baby when it came out, and my parents took me with them to the drive-in to see it. They expected me to fall asleep, but I was apparently alert and attentive through the entire film. I've always considered this my origin story.
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'This Is Spinal Tap' pairs Weill with 'Decline of Western Civilization Part II'.
	4:50pm Billybob: ↳ Borg9 @4:41 Never thought of 10cc that way, but yeah!
	4:50pm Erik/VT: ↳ Borg9 @4:41 Ah - good hybridization mash! 👏 Couldn’t quite nail that myself 😅. Have a fellow music collector pal that totally Loves 10cc & most of Steely Dan, yet has no interest in the Sparks catalog 🤷‍♂️.
	4:51pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:48 oh i know...not an original idea. still. that folk band satire movie looks a little boring though, even the the concept seems good. ?
	4:51pm Sproutsonic: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:49 "Anvil! The Story of Anvil" is another gooder to add to that bill.
	4:52pm coelacanth∅: ↳ zachary @4:48 okay! (i may never see it though. unless i hook up with someone who likes movies.)
	4:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I wonder if 'Metallica : Some Kind of Monster' might make it a marathon watch party...
	👻 4:53pm zachary: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:49 I have not seen that one. Maybe some clips? I'll have to check it out.
	👻 4:54pm zachary: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:52 I take it you don't like watching movies by yourself?
	4:54pm Billybob: ↳ Erik/VT @4:50 One thing I hate is when people equate Sparks with Queen. Grrrrr...
	4:55pm Irwin: ↳ Billybob @4:54 I equate them because I mostly don't like either.
	4:55pm coelacanth∅: ↳ The Oscar @4:49 ha -if someone brought a baby to a spinal tap movie now someone would call the department of child welfare!
	4:56pm PaulRobeson1924: Oral Thrush
	4:57pm The Oscar: ↳ Billybob @4:54 Didn't Ron once try to poach Brian May, or is that just an urban myth?
	4:58pm Irwin: ↳ The Oscar @4:57 He had the recipe, but was missing some essential ingredients, so he made a casserole instead.
	4:58pm coelacanth∅: ↳ zachary @4:54 i've never been to a movie theatre alone, and only have watched a few movies on tv. mostly documentaries. never rented a movie for myself; but i've gone through phases of watching lots of movies with other people, and usually enjoy them. - it's just not a priority when there's so much to listen to (and other things to do)
	5:04pm kendraplex: sup
	👻 5:05pm zachary: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:58 Ahhhh. Alright. That paints a richer picture. I went a couple of times to a movie theatre alone, but that was a number of years ago. I am not a huge movie person for similar reasons: a lot to create, read, listen, and observe. If you like metal music and comedy, This is Spinal Tap is a great movie to check out. May you find someone who is interested in watching it with you soon.
	👻 5:05pm zachary: Your goal is $3000, Irwin.
	👻 5:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:58 I wonder if a movie meet-up website would be a viable business model? Person A and Person B both express interest in some movie that's playing. Through the website or phone app, they agree to see the movie together and promise not to stalk each other.
	5:06pm NJM: What happened to Monty Hall? Is it not allowing to host live music anymore?
	5:07pm coelacanth∅: ↳ zachary @5:05 yes, all those reasons! but i do look forward to seeing it. time's running out though!
	5:07pm mndave: ↳ zachary @5:05 this has been my M.O. - i'd rather experience the "wait, you haven't seen THAT?" movie/show with someone who reacts that way rather than on my own
	👻 5:11pm zachary: ↳ mndave @5:07 Hear, hear! It's always fun to have someone want to show you something that they find special. Makes it a bit more magical.
	👻 5:12pm zachary: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:07 Time is running out?
	5:12pm dale: afternoon. always interesting to log in to clicky star something (this time it was the slapp happy) and see that i've already clickied it. nice to know my tastes haven't changed.
	5:14pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "It'll Take a Long Time" by "Sandy Denny" Sandy!
	5:14pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "It'll Take a Long Time" by "Sandy Denny" Sandy Eternally...💖
	👻 5:15pm zachary: ↳ dale @5:12 Ha! Consistency.
	5:15pm Billybob: ↳ Irwin @4:55 I dunno, but I think it would be funny if Sparks covered a Queen song. I'm thinking something from Queen II...one of those wild proggy songs from that album.
	👻 5:16pm combokid: Irwin, every show is a journey. thanks
	👻 5:16pm zachary: ↳ NJM @5:06 Not sure. Looking at past events, it looks like it has been about a year since a band was live. There have been a few performances, but the events have been movie nights, meet-ups, sales, and other one-off activities.
	5:17pm Irwin: ↳ Irwin @4:55 Of popular bands whose music I know somewhat, I also don't like Dire Straits. Or Harry Chapin. What kind of a name for a band is "Harry Chapin" anyway?
	5:18pm Billybob: ↳ Irwin @4:55 Fair enough : ) I actually don't mind that people don't like Sparks. Makes me feel like I'm in some kinda exclusive club.
	👻 5:18pm DjLorraine: Teo Torriatte always makes me cry
	5:19pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @5:17 I believe it's meant to be said "hairy chappin'", a facetious reference to the moustaches on all 6 members of that funk-soul outfit.
	5:19pm Irwin: ↳ Billybob @5:18 It's not even that I don't like Sparks -- I find their music really annoying. I don't question their talent (or Queen's). I just get irked and want it to stop.
	5:20pm jneim: hold up I thought I was listening to music of mind control
	5:20pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Buffalo Replaced" by "Mitski" Mitski -- another obscure indie artist with 28M monthly listeners on Spotty.
	5:24pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Beluga" by "Vero" Fan of Shakespearean sonnets!
	👻 5:26pm DjLorraine: Queens Lily of the Valley mentions "the timing of the beast"...
	👻 5:28pm DjLorraine: ↳ DjLorraine @5:26 I was mistaken " is there time enough for peace?"
	5:30pm Hubig Pie: photos.app.goo.gl... Happy Halloween!
	5:32pm Glistener MW: always great hearing Brooklyn legend Brian Dewan pop-up on here!
	5:33pm Billybob: ↳ Irwin @5:19 I totally get it. You're not alone. "Annoying" is a word I've heard often about Sparks. A lotta people think Russell's vocals are nails on a chalkboard.
	5:34pm Irwin: ↳ Glistener MW @5:32 He's been living in Catskill for about 15 years. Weird house full to the brim with BRIAN STUFF.
	5:34pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Gus Returns from Hiatus and is Agog with Fascinat... Caterer "Freentrée"
	5:35pm Jake: Knoebbels! Gus has been to NE PA!
	5:35pm Irwin: ↳ Jake @5:35 Gus LOVES Knoebbels. Goes often, always raves about the place.
	5:36pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Gus Returns from Hiatus and is Agog with Fascinat... I recently thought of that Cybertruck redone with internal combustion engine (much more sensible) recently. I bought a UPS for my computer, and thought about replacing the electric battery with a ICE, down there by my computer, indoors, not ventilated...
	5:36pm Jake: Next week can we hear about his visit to Jim Thorpe?
	5:37pm Jake: Jim Thorpe was where the first roller coaster was invented of course.
	5:37pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Gus Returns from Hiatus and is Agog with Fascinat... Fugue state, but now he's Bach, and will Chorale his thoughts.
	👻 5:39pm estebangrande: "fascination" in the background
	5:39pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @5:35 This is much farther away, but the Italian sauce company DelGrosso's actually has a family-oriented amusement park, way over by Altoona! en.wikipedia.org...
	5:40pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ estebangrande @5:39 Gus has also used the Human League's "Human", when he killed that GusAI.
	5:41pm Jake: Oh I am well aware of Bland's park as it was known for years before the name change. The oldest wooden roller coaster is nearby at Lakemont Park as well.
	5:42pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Jake @5:41 There seem to be many such amusements all over the vast state (commonwealth) of PA.
	5:44pm Billybob: That picture up top is great, but "Pooky Park" is the best use of AI I've seen to date. It's a commercial for an imaginary theme park. It's on Youtube.
	👻 5:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Graceful Ghost Rag" by "Chihiro Yamanaka" This is lovely!
	5:48pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Graceful Ghost Rag" by "Chihiro Yamanaka" A truly graceful ghost rag! No hazards here.
	👻 5:49pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Graceful Ghost Rag" by "Chihiro Yamanaka" Some improv, not strictly following the sheet music, like it!
	👻 5:51pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Crepuscule with Nellie" by "Esbjörn Svensson Trio" This is a wild and wonderful tune! Nice version! Thanks Irwin!
	5:52pm Irwin: ↳ doctorjazz @5:48 "Graceful Ghost" by Wm Bolcolm has been covered dozens of times, and almost every version is unique and wonderful. It's a tune you can't kill.
