	3:58pm DanChusid: ↳ Irwin @3:53 Luckily Cooper (the current) doesn't listen to the show or she might have thrown a shoe at the radio.
	3:58pm Irwin: ↳ DanChusid @3:55 Different Jan. See above.
	3:59pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "9th & Hennepin" by "Tom Waits" The best. I did a photo essay once at Ninth and Hennepin in MPLS. There was an adult bookstore but no doughnuts.
	4:00pm DanChusid: ↳ Irwin @3:58 Got it. One brother with a bad memory would be enough.
	4:02pm Feelin' Groovy: Much more radio in 2025. The app is awesome
	4:02pm Brendan: ↳ Song: "9th & Hennepin" by "Tom Waits" Tom quipped on Fernwood Tonight that he was currently living on the corner of Destitude & Squalor.
	4:04pm ∫ydniuß: I wonder if they can 💡
	4:04pm coelacanth∅: there are only 290 guitarists, so Lesley didn't really do so well.
	4:06pm Irwin: ↳ DanChusid @4:00 The other Jan has been listening to this station since the 1980s. Great photographer too. Like my bro.
	4:06pm C in Thailand: Just looked it up cuz that's what we do in the Global South the day after New Year. 246th is Paul Simon.
	4:07pm Mailman Tom: ↳ Song: "Long Red" by "Mountain" I saw Mountain perform at the Fillmore East in June 1969. Steve Miller opened for them. A much better guitar player than Leslie West!
	4:11pm Feelin' Groovy: ↳ Mailman Tom @4:07 WOW. I saw Leslie West in the mid 70's in Philly. Someone threw a damn sparkler that landed in his hair.
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TheWho still in their prime let LeslieWest join them on stage a little. You know that didn't happen with just anybody...
	4:13pm coelacanth∅: good thing that stupid didn't have a flair gun.
	4:14pm Feelin' Groovy: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:13 Amen to that/
	4:15pm Feelin' Groovy: "Machine Head" was one of the first albums I bought at age 11
	4:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I rely on quoting wigkey pages all the time ...but try & edit out RollingStone mag ratings ~ RnR HoF awards &tc. ...

	4:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the Psychedelicised stream one year paired Fillmore NewYears concerts - the celebrated Hendrix Band of Gypsys shows - & a Mountain with Leslie West a year or two later ? & - West held up his end of the comparison (that no Gittarist would want)...
	4:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:18 ...more than I expected...
	4:25pm Mailman Tom: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:18 Jimi Hendrix played the Fillmore on New Year's Eve 1969 and Leslie West played the venue on New Year's Eve 1970.
	4:27pm Towaco Marc: Happy New Year, Irwin. Gus and Old Codger if he is around.
	4:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Mailman Tom @4:25 Right Thx. A few months after Hendrix was no more.
	4:29pm Stevel: ↳ Song: "Irish Eyes" by "Rose Betts" Remarkable voice and song writer. I'll be looking into her a bit more. www.npr.org...

	4:41pm Irwin: ↳ Binky @4:40 And yes, PIANO. Beth is masterful. Lot of jazz influence.
	4:43pm Laura L: ↳ Binky @4:40 Hi ya Binky.
	4:43pm Stevel: ↳ Song: "Supersonic" by "Suddenly, Tammy!" Apparently my NY reolution was to add fantastic female vocalists to my listening habits. So good.

	5:10pm PC77: Lol :)
	5:11pm Jeff Moore: You want to know why nothing happened? Because a lot of computer programmers put in a lot of work in the years before the flip of the millennium to fix a bunch of old-ass systems which would otherwise have broken.
	5:13pm Irwin: ↳ Jeff Moore @5:11 Mose Allison: "When I first got to New York, the first thing that happened was -- nothing. Nothing was the first four things that happened."

	5:25pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Where the Hell Is Bill?" by "Camper Van Beethoven" I can't answer this one, but if there's anything we've learned from WFMU, it's that Paul's not home.
	5:26pm billylondon: I’m here where I’ve always been!
	5:26pm Schnormal: That was a hell of a segue
	5:28pm Dean: If I were CEO of Chrysler, I'd sue the daylights out the NYT, whose headline today reads, "Driver Rams Pickup Into Crowd..." But the homicidal maniac wasn't driving a Dodge Ram.

	3:58pm DanChusid: ↳ Irwin @3:53 Luckily Cooper (the current) doesn't listen to the show or she might have thrown a shoe at the radio.
	3:58pm Irwin: ↳ DanChusid @3:55 Different Jan. See above.
	3:59pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "9th & Hennepin" by "Tom Waits" The best. I did a photo essay once at Ninth and Hennepin in MPLS. There was an adult bookstore but no doughnuts.

	5:26pm Schnormal: That was a hell of a segue
	5:28pm Dean: If I were CEO of Chrysler, I'd sue the daylights out the NYT, whose headline today reads, "Driver Rams Pickup Into Crowd..." But the homicidal maniac wasn't driving a Dodge Ram.
