Listener comments!
	10:35am Listener Baby: You know, Baby? I’ve been thinking. With your #1 Hits, and my exquisite taste, we could do some things. No?

	11:01am Frank In Queens: ↳ myron feld @11:01 WHO TOLD YOU THAT?!?!?!
	11:01am Hoboken Jack: Happy new year Michael, BABY, Handy (I saw Nosferatu last night, eh, 7 out of 10), Frank, Greg, everybody!!
	11:02am Frank In Queens: ↳ Song: "Better Things" by "Kinks, The" The best

	11:03am Michael Shelley: ↳ Listener Baby @10:35 YES! Big things!
	11:04am luka: ↳ Ciggy @11:03 hot tamale
	11:04am Ciggy: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:00 Play some Haystacks Balboa
	11:04am George Kopp: Better Things in 2025! HNY EVERYONE!
	11:04am Frank In Queens: ↳ Song: "Better Things" by "Kinks, The" Is it ok if I find Better Things today?
	11:04am Chris Crash: Hey yo Mike!
	11:05am Frank In Queens: ↳ Chris Crash @11:04 CHRIS CRASH!!
	11:05am Squints: ok then. hey HEY hey now.
	11:06am John L: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:01 That's higher than my ranking.Maybe a 4. Adds nothing new to the story, the cinematography was too dark and Bill Skarsgård sounded like he was auditioning for a death metal band.
	11:06am Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:03 That’s the right answer, my friend.
	11:06am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Cry For A Shadow" by "Beatles, The" YES YES YES! This has become one of my favorite Beatles tracks lately, and one of the best recordings of Macca's original Hofner bass. Man, those guys were good in Hamburg...
	11:06am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Cry For A Shadow" by "Beatles, The" Is this Ringo or Pete?
	11:07am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Cry For A Shadow" by "Beatles, The" Lennon's original Rickenbacker 325 also sounds amazing on this track
	11:07am Squints: ↳ Song: "Cry For A Shadow" by "Beatles, The" Translator did a real nice loving cover of this.
	11:07am Hughie Considine: ↳ Squints @11:07 That's impossible, that's imposs!
	11:08am listener phat in Lincoln: Morning all!
	11:08am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Michael and Everyone.
	11:08am Hoboken Jack: ↳ Ciggy @11:03 Hot tamale
	11:09am clarke: hey now - i don't FEEL tardy.
	11:10am rx "rexy" scabin: @Ciggy I remember hearing them on a local AM station when I was 14.
	11:10am StringOFperils: Old folks boogie now. 'The wheelchairs were locked arm in arm.'
	11:11am Hoboken Jack: ↳ John L @11:06 Once we could start seeing Skarsgard I wasn't crazy about his portrayal, seemed too modern. Young Depp attractive but not the strongest actor.
	11:11am Charles in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @11:10 Let the fogeys use it Let the fogeys lose it Let all the fogeys boogie
	11:11am ?: One of the Better Things about A Complete Unknown is hearing Dylan stick up for the Kinks as You Really Got Me is playing. Don't know if it's true, hope it is.
	11:12am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Simon Says" by "Curtis Knight And The Squires" This game is sweeping the nation!
	11:12am annette: not asking fer a request, but lets all give a bless to Martin Mull
	11:12am gf2002: The new movies I want to see are the Dylan movie and that SNL movie. But I did watch The Monkees' "Head" last night in full for the first time in years. Amazing film.
	11:13am Chris Crash: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:05 Frank!! Enjoying a lazy saturday.
	11:13am egould: ↳ Song: "Simon Says" by "Curtis Knight And The Squires" The guitar is really putting a lot of heart into a novelty song.
	11:14am Hoboken Jack: ↳ George Kopp @11:04 Better birthdays, George!!
	11:14am common: ↳ gf2002 @11:12 great film! love the opening
	11:14am Hoboken Jack: ↳ gf2002 @11:12 I did like the Dylan movie a lot! 8 out of 10
	11:15am Moammar: ↳ egould @11:13 Jimi could do no other.
	11:16am Dr. Jeff: Hey Michael! Rev. Cleophus Robinson - “World Famous Preacher and Singer” - had a TV show here in St Louis for years!
	11:16am gf2002: ↳ common @11:14 Amazing, especially set to Carole King's "Porpoise Song". The entire soundtrack has some great songs and film sequences to enhance those tunes. "As We Go Along", the song and the video sequence, is stunning.
	11:16am common: ↳ gf2002 @11:16 agreed!
	11:17am Mark T: Good morning
	11:17am clarke: ↳ Song: "Run, Run, Run" by "Explorers Club, The" yes!
	11:17am myron feld: ↳ clarke @11:17 yes yes yes!!!
	11:18am gf2002: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:14 I've been skeptical but I've heard nothing but praise for the film so it's definitely on my list! My concerns were that I'd be nitpicking the historical details rather than enjoying the film
	11:18am Frank In Queens: ↳ Chris Crash @11:13 Not lazy for me today. I have to tend to "unfinished business", but I'm thrilled to do so.
	11:18am egould: ↳ Moammar @11:15 Did not know that was Jimi. Makes sense now.
	11:18am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:18 on the subject of Movies???
	11:19am myron feld: ↳ gf2002 @11:18 I forced myself to not nitpick and really enjoyed the movie. Edward Norton IS Pete Seeger!
	11:19am George Kopp: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:14 Thanks, Jack!! Cheers.
	11:20am Listener Baby: ↳ myron feld @11:19 I sure had my issues with movie. The music just carried it. Plain and simple.
	11:20am Mark T: Wait a minute, wait a minute! Stop the presses! So hear me out. Curtis Knight and the Squires? Is that like Otis Day and the Knights from “Animal House?”
	11:21am myron feld: ↳ Song: "Run, Run, Run" by "Explorers Club, The" Saw the 4-piece Explorers Club a couple years ago -- disappointing. The big band version was far superior.
	11:21am Charles in Chicago: ↳ gf2002 @11:18 Pitchfork calls it "A flimsy slice of Bob Dylan" pitchfork.com... the only negative review I've seen (I have not seen the film)
	11:21am egould: ↳ Mark T @11:20 A little bit louder now.
	11:21am Michael Shelley: ↳ myron feld @11:19 yes!
	11:21am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "You're No Good" by "Jose Feliciano" This is awesome
	11:21am clarke: she's always on the go so i'm in love with saturday's child
	11:22am Mark T: ↳ egould @11:21 😂🤣 Yep, that’s it!
	11:22am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Run, Run, Run" by "Explorers Club, The" I saw a Beach Boys tribute band last summer, and one of the members had been in the Explorers Club (possibly the guy who sang Run Run Run?) They were a fantastic Beach Boys cover band.-- probably better than the current Beach Boys.
	11:22am Michael Shelley: Here's a really badly written negative review: www.bostonglobe.com...
	11:22am Squints: ↳ Mark T @11:20 Uddah way around, methinks, theah.
	11:22am Mark T: ↳ Song: "You're No Good" by "Jose Feliciano" What an awesome cover! Badass
	11:23am Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:22 Paywall.
	11:23am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:22 you have, erah, turned the phrase around, theyah.
	11:24am listener phat in Lincoln: I was just looking up who was playing bass.
	11:24am myron feld: ↳ McGroovey @11:22 McGroovey, was it Sail On? They are great! And it used to be the Explorers Club full lineup actually making money, then they went without Jason Brewer (head EC guy) and were still really good.
	11:24am ?: I loved the Al Kooper Like a Rolling Stone scene. When the organ kicks in, so does the movie.
	11:25am Corey: Good morning Michael and listeners! Nice to have some #1 hit music on the radio as the snow falls.
	11:25am gf2002: ↳ clarke @11:21 Nice one! I love the Guided By Voices cover of it, but the original has those guitars just rocking out. I think Louis Shelton was one of the two leads
	11:26am DJ Johnny Cool: I can barely hear this.
	11:26am clarke: ↳ gf2002 @11:25 louiei and tommy
	11:26am listener phat in Lincoln: https://www.discogs.com/artist/289823-Hugh-McDonald
	11:26am McGroovey: ↳ Mark T @11:20 In upstate NY, we claim Wilmer and the Dukes inspired Otis Day and the Knights. Flashcubes side-project The Fab Cats did a fine Wilmer and the Dukes cover on one of their albums. en.wikipedia.org...
	11:26am John L: I watched Blitz last night, which was just OK, but Paul Weller has a small part. One of his first scenes takes place during an air raid, so he is seen going underground, seeking safety in the tube station. Not sure what time is was; coulda been midnight.
	11:26am Montmaster J: ↳ myron feld @11:19 100%-the judge should have let him play the song. :)
	11:26am berbo: another in the pantheon of 'Run Run Run' songs
	11:27am egould: He’s neat!
	11:27am Moammar: ↳ John L @11:26 Disappointing film. Gotta say.
	11:27am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ John L @11:26 Lol
	11:27am Listener Baby: Man Baby.Your AI lyric skills are notable.
	11:28am myron feld: Van Gogh didn't win MVP three times.
	11:29am Ciggy: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:10 The guitarist was a band mate of my brothers back in '67.. They once played on Zacherley's UHF TV show Disco Teen on Ch 68
	11:29am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:26 Wait. No. Wilmer cover wasn't by the Fab Cats. Who was it? ... Now I have to figure it out...
	11:29am Listener Baby: ↳ myron feld @11:28 And Vincent couldn’t call a game to save his life.
	11:29am clarke: i am not looking for a xmas movie.
	11:30am Ken From Hyde Park: Anyone yet to see the "Vengeance Most Fowl" Wallace & Gromit movie?
	11:30am berbo: Does Van Gogh have any iconic and humorous quotes?
	11:30am Jeff formerly from Rahway: Glad you went to the 9/11 museum. I was working on the JC waterfront in 2001 and I'd rather erase that day from my mind. Hifivicky and I LOVED the Bob Dylan film. I recognized many of the filming locations. Was it distracting from the plot? Maybe, but I found it fun.
	11:31am TimG: Love Wallace & Gromit….always a blast
	11:31am Bob: Juror #2 terrible. I see the Dylan on NYE largely due to this board. Very good. The liberties were indeed fine and served the big picture. They got the essence right.
	11:31am John L: ↳ Moammar @11:27 A few moments, but kind of bland. I loved much of director Steve McQueen's Small Axe series and Hunger; hard to believe it was the same director.
	11:31am myron feld: If the Dylan movie was made 30 years ago, Johnny Cash would've been played by John Doe.
	11:31am Squints: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:30 Not yet. Did make a point to refamiliarize myself with "Wrong Trousers" first the other day.
	11:32am V: Saw a Ghostlight on Prime. So emotional and great!
	11:32am egould: I watched ‘Hit Man’ this week. It stars Bernie Casey and Pam Grier. Pam Grier’s character is mauled to death by a lion. Highly recommend.
	11:32am Greg from ZONE 5: Anora was definitely the best (new) movie I saw this year. After that and The Florida Project Sean Baker is making a play to become one of my favorite directors.
	11:32am DJ Johnny Cool: The Dylan/Cash bootleg series set is one of my favorites.
	11:32am evancuts: Watched "Yacht Rock: A Dockumentary" last night on Max. Thoroughly enjoyed it. If you don't have HBO, feel free to come over one night--I'd gladly watch it a second time.
	11:32am Moammar: ↳ John L @11:31 Likewise. Small Axe was great. This felt like Hollywood tripe. Cliches and preposterous stuff all the way down.
	11:33am V: BOOKIE on HBO
	11:33am clarke: speaking of locations that are familiar, i caught the film Nightmare, last night - wow. never had seen - amazing. all filmed in new orleans and a plantation nearby. highly recommend.
	11:33am Mr. Jones: ↳ Song: "Wanted Man (take one)" by "Bob Dylan and Johnny C... <3
	11:33am Montmaster J: We liked Juror #2. Thought Toni Collette was excellent as the DA. If you wonder why cases come back on appeal or get dismissed after review here's your answer. Everything wrong with criminal justice system is here. It's not perfect or very realistic but rang true to me.
	11:34am Mark T: ↳ Song: "Wanted Man (take one)" by "Bob Dylan and Johnny C... Cool ass song.
	11:34am John L: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @11:32 Check out his earlier films, like Take Out, Starlet and Tangerine.
	11:34am Listener Baby: The review of movie I sent to Baby, right after seeing movie. Pure, raw, and from the heart. Dylan. Hollywood turd stain. Got through it. Liked first 1/3. Overly long for no good reason. Dude could have cut 10 minutes off the film by just eliminating 5 of the 15 shots of peoples faces being transfixed by the music. oi vey. Norton was great. Read a review that nailed it for me. He called it a Wikipedia page, turned screenplay. The Al Cooper stuff was so poorly done, and so unnecessary. Anyway, the music speaks for itself, and my eyes are just now coming back from the back of my head. Could have been amazing with the tools they had at hand.
	11:34am money&pain: Love the scene in Eat This Document where Cash, sweetly but firmly, explains to Dylan that he's singing I Still Miss Someone wrong.
	11:34am rockity: Love the library shout out, it’s true - museum passes are an excellent resource that your library probably has. Mine even has one for the MOMA, and since it’s a member card you get to cut the line at special exhibits 😻
	11:35am StringOFperils: ↳ evancuts @11:32 Rick Beato expresses his frustration, about a week ago > www.youtube.com...
	11:36am rx "rexy" scabin: @Ciggy I remember the song as Autumn Queen or Harvest Queen or something like that. My brother and I liked it.
	11:36am JG: Michael your comments on Complete Unknown are pretty much what I thought. Really enjoyed it for same reasons you said. Music great. Gets the story right I think. Any inaccuracy regarding specific historical details no big deal. One inaccuracy that I happened to notice though was Dave Van Ronk was sort of shown but really seemed to play no role in the story they were telling. Which is fine, but I think he was actually an influence on Dylan in real life
	11:36am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ John L @11:34 I've seen Tangerine and Take Out (and Red Rocket), but I'll check out Starlet ASAP!
	11:36am onthetrain: morning #1'ers .
	11:37am rx "rexy" scabin: It's good when you hear the DJ gleefully rubbing his hands together.
	11:37am Mark T: ↳ Squints @11:22 I know, I know. It was a joke.
	11:38am DJ Johnny Cool: Rachel Sweet covered I Go To Pieces.
	11:38am Mark T: ↳ myron feld @11:28 😂🤣😆
	11:39am Corey: ↳ Song: "I Go to Pieces" by "Lloyd Brown" Sooo good. Went to click the star, but already clicked. Ha.
	11:39am Joe B: ↳ Song: "I Go to Pieces" by "Lloyd Brown" great version!
	11:40am Bob: The biggest thing the Dylan movie did for me was send me on a Bob jag. Rewatched the Rolling Thunder doc which is fascinating in every way. Watched Don’t Look Back and a bunch of YouTube things. There’s a long (too) thing with the 66 tour drummer Mickey and his home movies. He’s a blowhard for sure but there’s a lot of interesting stuff in it.
	11:40am gf2002: ↳ JG @11:36 Again I haven't seen it but yes I'd think Dave Van Ronk would have been a bigger character in this film than Johnny Cash. I should rewatch the Coen Brothers' "Inside Llewyn Davis" as an appetizer before seeing the Dylan film
	11:40am Denny Diken: wow, never heard this version of “I Go To Pieces,” cool! it’s one of my favorite songs. The Peter & Gordon version ranks among the finest slabs of recorded sound, IMHO.
	11:41am clarke: schultz: i know nothing!
	11:41am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:29 To answer the question no one asked, it was the Fab Cats. The song is Give Me One More Chance, which is an absolute #1 hit: youtu.be...
	11:41am clarke: ↳ Denny Diken @11:40 i like del's version, too!
	11:42am Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Song: "Ooh, I Don't Feel Nothin'" by "Mande Dahl" I hear Lou Reed/VU "Rock & Roll" in this song.
	11:42am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Ooh, I Don't Feel Nothin'" by "Mande Dahl" Still a lot of shag carpet in recording studios on the day this was recorded. Dead was in, and on it’s way out.
	11:42am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Ooh, I Don't Feel Nothin'" by "Mande Dahl" These tracks are dry as a bone...maybe the studio didn't have a single echo chamber or reverb unit in the house!
	11:42am StringOFperils: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @11:42 No kidding.
	11:42am egould: www.mandedahl.com...
	11:44am Pedro in Arlington: I'm biopic-phobic but in the mid-90s at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, I watched an unrecognized Pete Seegar walk the Mall picking up any trash and shoving it into his pocket. He looked like any old guy in jeans. Then he met up with Toshie, who was hanging with a few friends on blanket. Was surprised to see her smoking cigarettes, funding Big Tobacco. They were also eating popsicles. True story. Pete was playing the Festival that night.
	11:44am StringOFperils: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @11:42 Oh! Sweet Nuthin', actually
	11:44am clarke: 8/10
	11:44am Moammar: Wise use of bongo feet.
	11:44am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Livin' Lovin' Wreck" by "Ian and the Zodiacs" Man. Bands sure seemed to be able to go into a studio, and lite it up, back then. And 10 out of 10, Baby!
	11:45am JG: ↳ gf2002 @11:40 Llewyn Davis is a classic. Awesome movie. Funny , sad.... terrific music. I think that movie and its sound track got me into Folk music on a really deeper level.
	11:45am egould: Well placed bongo feet.
	11:46am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, Michael and Everyone. I must go.
	11:46am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:41 I couldn't find the Fab Cats covering Wilmer and the Dukes, but here they are giving the Byrds covering Dylan youtu.be...
	11:46am clarke: ↳ JG @11:45 certainly Llewelyn stands up over time!! haven't seen dylan, but that would be difficult to top.
	11:46am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:46 *covering the Byrds
	11:48am Pedro in Arlington: What I absolutely don't understand is people buying the soundtrack to hear Chalamet cover some of the greatest records ever made. The same doofuses own the soundtrack to Beatlemania.
	11:48am Ciggy: Joni Mitchell's negative comments on Dylan - his breath - made me wonder, wasn't she a big smoker
	11:48am Moammar: ↳ Song: "People Are Talking" by "William Bollinger" Good fake Impressions.
	11:48am Bob: Roy Head #1 radio id. That’s how it’s done
	11:49am StringOFperils: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:48 Think about something better. Something worthwhile.
	11:50am Joe B: ↳ Listener Baby @11:34 "He called it a Wikipedia page, turned screenplay." basically every music bio pic ever made!
	11:50am Hughie Considine: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:48 "Yeah, man, unpopular opinion but I prefer the soundtrack to 'Backbeat' to the original songs."
	11:51am Hughie Considine: ↳ Ciggy @11:48 Yep, but Joni was Canadian, so she flossed.
	11:51am Pedro in Arlington: And if you lived in Chicago in the 80s, Sam Lay would invite you to his house and show the home movies he shot at Newport, having played drums for Butterfield and Bob. Lovely guy and family.
	11:52am clarke: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:51 good drummah!
	11:52am Joe B: ↳ Song: "I'll Never Fall In Love Again" by "Ella Fitzgerald" produced by the recently departed richard perry
	11:52am Listener Baby: ↳ Joe B @11:50 Correct, Joe.
	11:53am Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Song: "I'll Never Fall In Love Again" by "Ella Fitzgerald" This is great. I was only aware of the version by East Orange's Dionne Warwick.
	11:53am Mark T: ↳ McGroovey @11:26 Ok. That’s interesting. Going to 2004, I lived in Rochester for a year, Syracuse for about 6 months, and Kingston for 15 months. 20 years ago I Rochester I was still an active alcoholic. While I went to a few shows here and there, all I remember was a year of way too much snow.
	11:53am clarke: ↳ Joe B @11:52 RIP Perry! that slipped by me.
	11:53am Michael Shelley: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:48 AGREE!
	11:54am clarke: ↳ Song: "He'd Be A Diamond" by "Bevis Frond, The" SO yes!!
	11:54am Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Song: "He'd Be A Diamond" by "Bevis Frond, The" Oh sheesh I think my band covered this song in 1992.
	11:55am Bob: ↳ Ciggy @11:48 Bevis Frond is touring the US for the first time in 25 years and playing a tiny Detroit bar. So psyched!
	11:55am Marie in Chicago: Hi Michael, hi Everyone! Sounding gooooood
	11:55am Squints: ↳ Song: "He'd Be A Diamond" by "Bevis Frond, The" I thrash the crap out of this at the open mics.
	11:55am SJ Taper: Bevis Frond! Coming to the states in March!!
	11:56am StringOFperils: ↳ SJ Taper @11:55 Good to know. Maybe he'll swing north.
	11:56am myron feld: ↳ Joe B @11:52 I bought an album(forget which one) at an estate sale and inside was a note from Richard Perry: "To Harold -- Here are some things for Theo to listen to. I'll be sending more shortly. Have a good trip back. Best regards, Richard."
	11:57am Joe B: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:48 bought the beatlemania soundtrack at the winter garden theater after the show!
	11:57am the nOggin: Sounds like elvis costello
	11:57am Hughie Considine: Why would it be pronounced beh-vis though? The Twilight Zone was very clear about Mr. Beevis.
	11:57am StringOFperils: R.I.P. Richard Perry
	11:57am onthetrain: so #1ers what had a friend of a friend ask ( on social media) is music dead. i went on to introduce him to 3 new for 24 songs i heard on wfmu . so my new year's resolution is to spread the good news of musics not dead but spotify is.
	11:57am Kotzwinkled: Nice to hear a surprise Beavis chuckle.
	11:57am Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ SJ Taper @11:55 Nick Saloman played a show in Brooklyn a decade ago and he was a super nice guy. He let me drink all of his beer at the venue.
	11:58am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:57 tis the way they say it
	11:59am Pedro in Arlington: ↳ Joe B @11:57 I'm waiting for the US mono remaster box.
	11:59am Ciggy: ↳ Song: "He'd Be A Diamond" by "Bevis Frond, The" I'm just an old chunk of coal
	11:59am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:58 Well then I respect it, but looking at the word I'd use a long 'e.' Long live the frond!
	12:00pm Joe B: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:59 i love those types of soundtracks. some are great, some a fabulous train wrecks. The recent Elvis one is one of my faves. Thought i think it was digital only.
	12:00pm newton: I finished it, great fun! sorry about your eye Hughie
	12:01pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:59 what happened to your eye???
	12:01pm Joe B: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:59 beatlemania anthology! though the Rutles beat them too it with archeology
	12:02pm Hughie Considine: ↳ newton @12:00 Thanks so much, Newton! Totally appreciate you taking a chance! It's all better now (although it's a little smaller than the other one...)
	12:02pm clarke: Archeology is FAB !!
	12:02pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:01 You're gonna have to read the book, schnook!
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:02 ah - long ago!
	12:03pm Handy Haversack: OK, well, we'll see what happens. I don't think I'm going to see the Dylan movie. The other vampire movie out right now seems more interesting.
	12:03pm Moammar: ↳ Song: "Don't It Make You Want to Go Home?" by "Dave Kirby" Nice modulation, champ.
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:02 i remember that - thought something more recent happened.
	12:04pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:03 Ah, I see (said the blindman as he picked up his hammer and saw)
	12:04pm Bob Tankenstein: Wassup Michael and the gang. Diggin the tunes per usual
	12:04pm StringOFperils: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:03 *ouch
	12:05pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:01 Happy New Year, Jack! Yeah, that tracks. Although, unless we're grading on a curve, that's better than 99 percent of the movies out there.
	12:05pm listener 126464: ↳ Song: "Ooh, I Don't Feel Nothin'" by "Mande Dahl" Holy moly. Saw them around 79 in the village somewhere. Bought a record with a very pink cover.
	12:05pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:04 i have yet to check my email, sorry
	12:05pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Uncomplicated" by "Elvis Costello" I straight-up love this record. I think it's my fave EC. This song is great.
	12:06pm Joe B: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:05 same!
	12:07pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:05 As I said in June 2023 when Michael played this!
	12:07pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Uncomplicated" by "Elvis Costello" Funny, a few of his late middle period songs are right up there for me. This one for sure.
	12:08pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Joe B @12:06 This song, "Tokyo Storm Warning," and "I Want You" are all-time classics. If those three songs were your whole career, you could look back in pride.
	12:08pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Uncomplicated" by "Elvis Costello" they don't make 'em like this, anymore.
	12:08pm evancuts: The other day I was going through old scrapbooks and found my ticket stubs for Elvis on Broadway from 1986. This song was certainly a highlight. BTW... The five nights (I went to all) cost a total of $100. That's less than half of what the Wellmont is charging for EC and Steve Nieve this spring.
	12:09pm BottleCap: Great show today. Thank you.
	12:09pm Pedro in Arlington: If you want a REAL Bob movie, check out 1987's "Hearts of Fire" with Zimmy, Rupert Everett and Fiona as the triangle love interest. It's Bob's own mid-60s Elvis movie, with tunes found nowhere else. Bob's aging rocker Billy Parker is just waiting to get smacked by a Barbara Stanwyck not in the film.
	12:10pm Moammar: Seabra Marisqueira, baby!
	12:11pm P-90: We’d like to hear a description and review of this Portugese seafood
	12:11pm Hoboken Jack: What subways did you ride, Michael?
	12:11pm Joe B: For someone that works nights in the city, congestion pricing is fucking bullshit. It is literally a cash grab. Has ZERO to do with the environment
	12:12pm Hoboken Jack: The congestion pricing is not that much for the occasional drive in. Turns out to be an extra $6 from NJ.
	12:12pm Handy Haversack: ↳ evancuts @12:08 I just committed myself to two nights of hotel in freaking Tarrytown to see both nights of Magnetic Fields doing 69 Love Songs since I missed it in NYC. I guess you can't take it with you, right? Tarrytown, Dude.
	12:12pm McGroovey: Congestion pricing: I think it's probably the right thing, and if I had a vote, I'd vote for it, but I won't be glad to pay the tolls.
	12:12pm Kotzwinkled: Congestion pricing is good. If you want to cosplay as a New Yorker, you gotta pay the price. But yeah the money will be misused, so it's a wash.
	12:12pm StringOFperils: A transition away from petroleum will not come without pain. And reluctance. And opportunities for corruption and corrupting political capital at every turn.
	12:13pm Guy: It is a tax on people who work in person
	12:13pm Joe B: if they cared about the environment, why not ban ALL non-commercial traffic from the zone?
	12:13pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:11 wouldn't there be passes for regular commuters??
	12:13pm Joe B: ↳ clarke @12:13 there are not
	12:13pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Kotzwinkled @12:12 Every place in the world where it's been put in place, it faced massive anger, lawsuits, intense pressure to cancel it, and severe backlash -- and then everyone came around and started to love it because it actually, measurably decreases unnecessary car traffic.
	12:13pm Peter: "A cash grab" - real NY Post lingo. . How about this...less people driving private vehicles into the core of Manhattan is a win for -everyone- including drivers.
	12:13pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Most live shows in NYC have moved to the far reaches of Brooklyn and Queens. Mass transit crossing the Hudson River is slow, infrequent and expensive. Driving is insanely slow and I live less than 20 miles from Manhattan. I'm considering seeing shows in Philly or Kingston. Too much of a slow, expensive PITA to head to NYC.
	12:13pm Joe B: ↳ Peter @12:13 why not ban uber/lyft?
	12:13pm AYAYRON: Don’t know the dates, but this sounds like “Btown Eyed Girl”
	12:13pm Greg from ZONE 5: Like everything else, it will only affect working/middle class people. Wealthy people will continue driving everywhere unaffected.
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:13 well, that is some bullshit right thar.
	12:14pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @12:13 There are vanishingly few regular car commuters to Manhattan.
	12:14pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:12 Tarrytown isn't a bad place. I thought of buying tickets for one or both of those, but I haven't pulled the trigger. I think other friends of mine are going.
	12:14pm Peter: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:13 Yup - it's like when smokng was going to banned on planes and in the workplace.
	12:14pm Count Reeshard: How close to “Brown-Eyed Girl” could the Raiders get without getting a call from the copyright lawyers?
	12:14pm evancuts: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:12 Saw Richard Thompson in Tarrytown back in Nov. Great venue. The drive from Montclair was only 40 minutes. Easier than driving to NYC for us Jersey folks.
	12:14pm Joe B: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @12:13 exactly. hence, cash grab
	12:14pm Hoboken Jack: For the Joe Belocks of the world, there needs to be a subsidy.
	12:15pm BottleCap: Buy generic. Brand name NyQuil is too expensive.
	12:15pm egould: ↳ Song: "Birds Of A Feather" by "Paul Revere And The Raiders" Number One.
	12:15pm Joe B: ↳ Peter @12:14 it's nothing like that
	12:15pm Guy: It is also a beggar thy neighbor policy. The wealthy who live in Manhattan can foist costs onto those who must work in person and commute
	12:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ evancuts @12:14 We have to leave from Queens at 4 ... I tremble to think what it will be like to get up there!
	12:15pm Lizardner Dave !: What the anti-car folks forget is that a tax on cars is a tax on the mobility impaired. Try getting around NY in a wheelchair or even with one bad leg and a cane without using a taxi or Uber. It's not fun.
	12:15pm newton: Im not happy about the tax on drivers. I work with stuff and so have to move around stuff. Also always have a dog in tow. cant carry 150 lbs of camera and film and a dog and get in and out the subway, and then to wherever, and back
	12:15pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: NJT from Rahway to NYC is slower, less reliable and offers fewer trains now than in the 1980s.
	12:16pm Peter: The avg income of people who drive in far exceeds those that take public transport. And the number of people who drive in is tiny compared to the above.
	12:16pm Joe B: all the people who are for it are also the same people who ask me for rides or can afford to splurge for an uber.
	12:16pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Lizardner Dave ! @12:15 Ive read there are many exemptions
	12:17pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:16 Exemptions seem to be only for NY State drivers with NY EzPass.
	12:17pm Joe B: ↳ Peter @12:16 i'd love to never drive. public transportation is way insufficient and this shit will not address anything regarding NJ Transit and PATH
	12:17pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Joe B @12:16 lol !
	12:17pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Joe B @12:16 Joe, we'd be honored to pick you up on the drive in to NYC. WFMU needs to start a rideshare board!
	12:18pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Joe B @12:17 Yup
	12:18pm newton: I didnt see any real exemptions. if you make less than 60k AND drive in more than 10 times a month then the drives OVER the first ten will be discounted, they havent said how much
	12:18pm Joe B: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:17 i have been taking names!
	12:18pm evancuts: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:15 In that case sounds like a great idea to book a hotel and make a mini-vacation. Lots of interesting things to see in Tarrytown. Beautiful walks along the Hudson and lots of historic houses to visit.
	12:18pm Joe B: ↳ Peter @12:16 you completely miss the point.
	12:18pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "Mr. Whiz" by "Jerry Reed" "I'm the fastest there is" is kind of a weird flex, Jerry.
	12:18pm Guy: Cities need to cut costs or raise their revenue. NYC wastes its money. Therefore the government will try to raise money any way it can. They will rationalize it with progressive justifications as a way to mollify voters.
	12:19pm Montmaster J: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:12 Well...the Music Hall is great place to see a show.
	12:19pm Michael Shelley: ↳ BottleCap @12:15 Agree!
	12:19pm Michael Shelley: ↳ evancuts @12:14 Philly is easier!
	12:19pm misterdavid: Always emotionally shattering, thanks
	12:19pm clarke: denny!
	12:19pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Sigh, I miss Maxwell's.
	12:20pm Joe B: everyone cheering for this never was waiting at port authority for a NJ Transit bus that never showed at 2:30 am after a 12-hour workday.
	12:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ evancuts @12:18 Yeah, that's the plan. We were going to go just for Sat. night, and then we realized, well, it's always the shows you miss that you regret, not the ones you go to. Mostly.
	12:20pm StringOFperils: Maybe the new federal regime's anti-environmental mandate will simply (or not simply) hobble the state and city efforts to implement it.
	12:20pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Go Now" by "Bessie Banks" This is one of my single favorite songs. It might actually be my all time favorite songs. I bought the Moody Blues version, not realizing that they changed sound drastically and I kind of decided I didn't like any other Moody Blues.
	12:21pm Pedro in Arlington: FYI To save money for congestion pricing, the REAL Bob movie "Hearts of Fire" can be streamed FREE through the public library app "hoopla."
	12:21pm Joe B: ↳ StringOFperils @12:20 nah, they will enjoy hurting cities, which this will do.
	12:21pm listener phat in Lincoln: Always gives a tear or two, without fail.
	12:21pm Handy Haversack: ↳ StringOFperils @12:20 This is why it's going into effect now, even though Governor Coward had already postponed it until after the election and slashed the revenue it will raise.
	12:21pm egould: ↳ Guy @12:18 The Washington State government urges people to drive electric vehicles and take public transportation. People buy electric cars and take public transportation. The State of Washington complains of budget shortfalls due to declining gasoline tax revenues. Government is fucked.
	12:22pm Guy: ↳ egould @12:21 Yes
	12:22pm Michael Shelley: ↳ evancuts @12:14 By The Way = just saw RT at South Orange Whole Foods - freezing cold day - he was in shorts
	12:23pm McGroovey: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @12:13 Yeah, as it is, it costs me $25-40 in tolls round-trip (cheaper if I go through Manhattan) already to get to Brooklyn. It costs me $14 round-trip on mass transit, but it takes 2+ hours to get home (vs 45 min in the car) after midnight. Yeah, this is why it's a pita to go to Brooklyn for shows.
	12:23pm StringOFperils: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:21 That's the sort of thing I expect to see. That and absurdly unilateral reversals. Time will tell.
	12:23pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Tus Ojos" by "Edmuno Arais" Sucker for this sound.
	12:23pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:22 his legs are bulletproof!
	12:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ StringOFperils @12:23 In the meantime, my letters to the City Council about banning kids from parks are going totally ignored!
	12:24pm Guy: ↳ McGroovey @12:23 Country life has some nice features.
	12:24pm StringOFperils: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:24 Ha ha ha. Soldier on Handy.
	12:25pm Joe B: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:21 'slashed the revenue it will raise.' so it is not about the environment at all.
	12:25pm BobOnStatenIsland: Congestion Pricing will raise prices on everything in Manhattan, ruin downtown & midtown businesses, generate millions to be money laundered to who knows who (the MTA will NEVER be in the black, it is an enormous money laundering scheme disguised as a transit system. Remember when it was caught running two sets of books years ago? Nobody was fired, nobody went to jail, then they raised fairs). Now, let's say this scheme runs for 4 weeks, then is determined unconstitutional, is the State required to return the money to those it robbed?
	12:26pm Pedro in Arlington: To save more money for congestion pricing, check if your library offers "Kanopy." Lots of excellent free streaming including a lot of Criterion collection.
	12:26pm clarke: that cupcake is causing Turntable One to protest.
	12:26pm jack: don't know if anyone answered, but he wasn't drunk. Just talking about his love for someone feels close to death
	12:26pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Don't Worry About the Government (Live At CBGB 10... Not that CD player, the other one.
	12:26pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Song: "Don't Worry About the Government (Live At CBGB 10... Michael, stop dancing around the studio. You're making the turntable bounce.
	12:26pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Don't Worry About the Government (Live At CBGB 10... Jesus goddamn Christ they were great, and seemingly, great out of the booth. And there's just nothing like them.
	12:26pm Squints: I like how Michael is respecting the non-disparagement agreement with Turntable One.
	12:26pm evancuts: I guess we SHOULD worry about the government.
	12:26pm Guy: ↳ Joe B @12:25 The government would not create a new tax just for the environment. Taxes are created to raise revenue for the government
	12:27pm listener phat in Lincoln: Clean the stylus!
	12:27pm egould: ↳ egould @12:21 You know what is not fucked? This crème brulée latté. It’s freaking delicious.
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ Squints @12:26 there is a gag order.
	12:27pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Joe B @12:25 Joe, I love you and so don't want to argue, but the revenue is meant to maintain and expand the MTA, and public transit rather than cars is desperately needed for the environment. I don't know enough about NJ politics to know why the NJT budget has been slashed and service is so terrible, but it seems like that was a political choice at some point.
	12:27pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:26 Another DJ was having trouble with a CD player the other day. Probably that one.
	12:27pm GeoSinPhilly: ↳ Song: "Don't Worry About the Government (Live At CBGB 10... Love the bass line in the "Loved ones, Loved Ones" section.
	12:27pm Joe B: ↳ Guy @12:26 i am aware of that. but many others are not
	12:27pm Handy Haversack: ↳ egould @12:27 I'm worried about this vegan strata.
	12:28pm Guy: ↳ Joe B @12:27 Yes
	12:28pm clarke: the heads had a tempo issue at CB's.
	12:28pm Guy: Best recording ever. Just let it play like that for a while.
	12:29pm Joe B: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 but if no one drives, there will be no revenue from this plan. but people will keep driving, and paying, because the MTA will not make improvements, or good enough improvements. it is a scam.
	12:29pm Marit: can happend to the best
	12:29pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Don't Worry About the Government (Live At CBGB 10... Good morning. Technical difficulties notwithstanding, I am very much enjoying this live record!
	12:29pm Michael Shelley: ↳ evancuts @12:08 And that's before he had permanent laryngitis
	12:29pm Joe B: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 'public transit rather than cars is desperately needed for the environment.' this plan will do nothing to that end.
	12:29pm Michael Shelley: ↳ BottleCap @12:09 THANKS BC!
	12:30pm egould: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 What’s that Talking Heads song? ‘Don’t Worry About the Vegan Strata’?
	12:30pm pgalub: Hey Michael and everyone. Happy New Year!
	12:31pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 People don't want to "subsidize" transit... Even though they complain about traffic, and complain about NJT fares, and about NJT service. But they don't even think about how much they subsidize road construction and repairs. Except they complain about paying taxes, and cheer when taxes are cut. And then complain when services are cut. People
	12:31pm Handy Haversack: ↳ egould @12:30 NOW we gotta worry about CD Player 1!
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ pgalub @12:30 hello. hello.
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:31 the union rep is on the way down. but, he has transit issues.
	12:32pm Marie in Chicago: the South as depicted in 60s pop--a den of dysfunction--wiiiild
	12:33pm McGroovey: ↳ Joe B @12:29 Why do you think this money won't help transit? "Because politicians always steal the money." is too Trump.
	12:33pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:33 Trumpy
	12:34pm egould: Time for kitchen duty. Fresh squeezed oj mimosas. Greek omelette (sundried tomatoes, green onion, kalamata olives, feta cheese). Leftover pork chop. Thanks Michael!
	12:34pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:33 actually MS said that, not joe
	12:34pm StringOFperils: C.W. McCall's real name was Howard Taft Feinstein
	12:34pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:34 A lot of people say that, not just MS.
	12:34pm Guy: MTA is not making enough money to cover costs. Therefore it must raise prices (which is politically impractical) or money must come from other sources.
	12:34pm evancuts: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:22 We hung out w/ RT at W's holiday party. He wore trousers. BTW You were missed!
	12:34pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @12:33 look at the MTA's track (pun) record. and also, why is none of this going to help the transit from MJ/CT/upstate?
	12:35pm Joe B: ↳ Joe B @12:34 NJ
	12:35pm clarke: new jersey - pants optional.
	12:36pm McGroovey: ↳ Joe B @12:34 We should obviously have a regional, interstate transit agency, but that would require federal legislation, and Republicans would never vote for it
	12:36pm Guy: A commuter tax is politically expedient because out of state voters have no say in the matter
	12:37pm Michael Shelley: ↳ evancuts @12:34 Juniper's birthday...
	12:38pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @12:33 when I drive to Brooklyn from Bayonne, I play the double tolls - Verrazano and Bayonne bridges. I don't complain about that. Because there are bridges. that are maintained and that work.
	12:38pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:37 HB JS!!
	12:38pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 The Port Authority was set up as such an agency 80 years ago but speaking as someone who worked for a PANYNJ Commissioner, the board is extremely parochial, with the individual board members reporting to their respective governors' political whims and ignoring the overall needs of the entire region.
	12:38pm Mark T: What’s up with your CD player dude? Somebody feeding it Gummies? lol
	12:38pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Guy @12:34 Or... cut the mismanagement
	12:39pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 if the congestion pricing had some kind of actual plan, like a percentage was going to upgrade transit to and from the city, then fine. that is not what this is.
	12:39pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Vamos Chegar Pra Lá" by "Jackson do Pandiero" What an earworm!
	12:40pm Guy: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:38 And stop the fair beaters. Also, make the subways safe so that more people can use them.
	12:41pm drr: ↳ John L @11:26 did he have a takeaway curry?
	12:41pm Joe B: all these people cheering for it will happily hop in an uber the next time they are out late because they can afford it.
	12:41pm clarke: always a dreamer!
	12:42pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Insecre" by "Joan Jett" I guess it wasn't a bad Talking Heads CD.
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:42 the evidence is clear, but union disagrees.
	12:43pm clarke: can i buy a vowel, pat?
	12:43pm Mark T: Joan Jett have a stutter?
	12:43pm McGroovey: ↳ Joe B @12:41 I've never used Uber (or the others) because I'm a cheapskate. I can walk or take the bus, if I'm not driving.
	12:44pm berbo: I liked the Joan Jett doc "Bad Reputation", a lot.
	12:44pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:43 this raises a question: is there a way to cycle to the island??
	12:45pm Handy Haversack: OK, vegan strata -- here we go!
	12:45pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:39 The wormiest
	12:45pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Got Any Money?" by "Los Shakers" Was there any question?
	12:45pm clarke: the musical answer: nope.
	12:46pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Got Any Money?" by "Los Shakers" Andrew Hickey's episode on these guys is so appreciated.
	12:46pm McGroovey: And despite the negative media attention now, I think the subways and the streets of NYC are pretty safe--especially compared to NYC in the '80s and early '90s, and to, say, New Orleans today (and I'm not talking about the terrorist guy--that's an anomaly anywhere outside the Middle East).
	12:46pm Moammar: ↳ Song: "Got Any Money?" by "Los Shakers" Lovely harmony. Terrible grammar. "Yes, I got job."
	12:46pm listener phat in Lincoln: This reminds me that I probably still need to make a beat music.
	12:46pm drr: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @11:32 Starlet is great, and I re-watched Red Rocket last week--I really liked the character Lonnie. I need to rewatch Tangerine next. But, yeah, big fan of Sean Baker. I actually went to a building called a THE-ATER to see Anora, so: high praise.
	12:47pm listener phat in Lincoln: Best music record...
	12:47pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:46 public transit in nola is much improved these days.
	12:47pm KWilde: Hit after hit
	12:48pm Listener Baby: ↳ KWilde @12:47 I’ll say!
	12:48pm Hubig Pie: ↳ clarke @12:47 I hear they gots a streetcar in the Nin't Ward!
	12:48pm BobOnStatenIsland: ↳ Guy @12:36 MTA already gets State & Fed subsidies 🤷‍♂️
	12:48pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @12:47 It seems like a relatively easy town to get around, although I've had rides from you both times I've been there.
	12:49pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:48 sorta
	12:49pm lentils: Awesome show, Mike!
	12:49pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:48 da tracks only go a little bit into da nint.
	12:49pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:45 K8's review: "Super tasty!" We'll call it a win.
	12:49pm Guy: ↳ McGroovey @12:46 What happened to improve subway safety after the early 90s?
	12:49pm bobob Plasticland: slot better than the Fortunes
	12:51pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Tears A Go-Go" by "Charlie Rich" CHARLES!!
	12:52pm Listener Baby: Shoes at the Whiskey. So amazing. Ric Menck on the drums. Crowded House also memorable there. The Plugz too. So many.
	12:53pm StringOFperils: Great show, Michael. Thanks for getting us from there to here, in the most un-taxing way possible!
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @12:52 damn!
	12:53pm JG: ↳ Joe B @12:41 And they are trying to force you onto their shitty mass transit where you can be stabbed, lit on fire or shoved in front of an oncoming train. It is bullshit indeed.
	12:53pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Song: "Tears A Go-Go" by "Charlie Rich" During prohibition I ran a place, Whiskey-a-No-No
	12:54pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:53 it was a speak-difficult
	12:54pm Listener Baby: Shows just flooding back. Wall of Voodoo shows at Whiskey, so electrifying.

	12:55pm clarke: i'm kinda diggin' this...
	12:55pm egould: I saw a million shows at the Whisky. Fu Manchu, Shonen Knife, Sonic Youth, White Zombie, Redd Kross, Circle Jerks, Dickies, Big Drill Car, Further. Many many more. My best memory was being super high on acid (and other stuff) and having my brain completely shattered at a Monster Magnet show. Fun times.
	12:55pm Squints: Player One ain't movin' no rope.
	12:56pm Hughie Considine: I thought I was the only one who burns stuff onto expensive blank CDs. I use a two-well AIWA that i had to replace after about 20 years, but it's not a bad way of digitizing songs from LPs.
	12:56pm newton: ↳ McGroovey @12:46 I know someone was pushed onto the tracks a few weeks ago. nypost reported minor injuries - he just spent 2 weeks in ICU. I dont think they are pretty safe. the nurses in icu said they typically have 7 patients who were pushed in the subway at any time
	12:56pm neveract: you need the 45rpm CD's..
	12:56pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, MS! See you all on the trains, Shellegamers!
	12:56pm steveo: I for one enjoyed hearing the broken CD player and I consider it a minimalist masterpiece
	12:57pm Hughie Considine: ↳ newton @12:56 That is horrifying. I always keep away from the edge.
	12:57pm StringOFperils: Badly Byrned.
	12:57pm Hoboken Jack: Thank you, Michael!
	12:57pm drr: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:48 No, it's ridiculous. Just for me to get down town I have to hope a drawbridge isn't up or a train isn't crossing the main street that goes that way. And I live like three miles from downtown. Important roads have car-swallowing potholes.
	12:57pm Handy Haversack: ↳ newton @12:56 Out of literally millions. If we want anecdotal evidence, I have lived in Brooklyn for over twenty-five years and never, ever seen any violence on the subway.
	12:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Michael. Next DJ coming up on or close to schedule.
	12:57pm clarke: no one's calling...
	12:57pm listener phat in Lincoln: Essential part of one of the favorite records I ever made.

	12:58pm clarke: ever get the feelin' you been kenned?? good nite...
	12:58pm listener phat in Lincoln: Thanks Michael. Happy New Year everyone!
	12:58pm steveo: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:57 Darn straight.
	12:59pm clarke: what is it good for?
	12:59pm KWilde: Thanks MS!
	1:00pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ drr @12:57 I did notice the rough roads. They're terrible here, too, so I don't really think about them normally.

	11:05am Squints: ok then. hey HEY hey now.
	11:06am John L: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:01 That's higher than my ranking.Maybe a 4. Adds nothing new to the story, the cinematography was too dark and Bill Skarsgård sounded like he was auditioning for a death metal band.
	11:06am Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:03 That’s the right answer, my friend.
	11:06am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Cry For A Shadow" by "Beatles, The" YES YES YES! This has become one of my favorite Beatles tracks lately, and one of the best recordings of Macca's original Hofner bass. Man, those guys were good in Hamburg...
	11:06am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Cry For A Shadow" by "Beatles, The" Is this Ringo or Pete?
	11:07am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Cry For A Shadow" by "Beatles, The" Lennon's original Rickenbacker 325 also sounds amazing on this track
	11:07am Squints: ↳ Song: "Cry For A Shadow" by "Beatles, The" Translator did a real nice loving cover of this.
	11:07am Hughie Considine: ↳ Squints @11:07 That's impossible, that's imposs!

	11:08am Hoboken Jack: ↳ Ciggy @11:03 Hot tamale
	11:09am clarke: hey now - i don't FEEL tardy.
	11:10am rx "rexy" scabin: @Ciggy I remember hearing them on a local AM station when I was 14.
	11:10am StringOFperils: Old folks boogie now. 'The wheelchairs were locked arm in arm.'
	11:11am Hoboken Jack: ↳ John L @11:06 Once we could start seeing Skarsgard I wasn't crazy about his portrayal, seemed too modern. Young Depp attractive but not the strongest actor.
	11:11am Charles in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @11:10 Let the fogeys use it Let the fogeys lose it Let all the fogeys boogie
	11:11am ?: One of the Better Things about A Complete Unknown is hearing Dylan stick up for the Kinks as You Really Got Me is playing. Don't know if it's true, hope it is.
	11:12am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Simon Says" by "Curtis Knight And The Squires" This game is sweeping the nation!
	11:12am annette: not asking fer a request, but lets all give a bless to Martin Mull
	11:12am gf2002: The new movies I want to see are the Dylan movie and that SNL movie. But I did watch The Monkees' "Head" last night in full for the first time in years. Amazing film.
	11:13am Chris Crash: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:05 Frank!! Enjoying a lazy saturday.
	11:13am egould: ↳ Song: "Simon Says" by "Curtis Knight And The Squires" The guitar is really putting a lot of heart into a novelty song.
	11:14am Hoboken Jack: ↳ George Kopp @11:04 Better birthdays, George!!
	11:14am common: ↳ gf2002 @11:12 great film! love the opening
	11:14am Hoboken Jack: ↳ gf2002 @11:12 I did like the Dylan movie a lot! 8 out of 10
	11:15am Moammar: ↳ egould @11:13 Jimi could do no other.
	11:16am Dr. Jeff: Hey Michael! Rev. Cleophus Robinson - “World Famous Preacher and Singer” - had a TV show here in St Louis for years!
	11:16am gf2002: ↳ common @11:14 Amazing, especially set to Carole King's "Porpoise Song". The entire soundtrack has some great songs and film sequences to enhance those tunes. "As We Go Along", the song and the video sequence, is stunning.
	11:16am common: ↳ gf2002 @11:16 agreed!
	11:17am Mark T: Good morning
	11:17am clarke: ↳ Song: "Run, Run, Run" by "Explorers Club, The" yes!
	11:17am myron feld: ↳ clarke @11:17 yes yes yes!!!
	11:18am gf2002: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:14 I've been skeptical but I've heard nothing but praise for the film so it's definitely on my list! My concerns were that I'd be nitpicking the historical details rather than enjoying the film
	11:18am Frank In Queens: ↳ Chris Crash @11:13 Not lazy for me today. I have to tend to "unfinished business", but I'm thrilled to do so.
	11:18am egould: ↳ Moammar @11:15 Did not know that was Jimi. Makes sense now.
	11:18am clarke: ↳ Frank In Queens @11:18 on the subject of Movies???
	11:19am myron feld: ↳ gf2002 @11:18 I forced myself to not nitpick and really enjoyed the movie. Edward Norton IS Pete Seeger!
	11:19am George Kopp: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:14 Thanks, Jack!! Cheers.
	11:20am Listener Baby: ↳ myron feld @11:19 I sure had my issues with movie. The music just carried it. Plain and simple.
	11:20am Mark T: Wait a minute, wait a minute! Stop the presses! So hear me out. Curtis Knight and the Squires? Is that like Otis Day and the Knights from “Animal House?”
	11:21am myron feld: ↳ Song: "Run, Run, Run" by "Explorers Club, The" Saw the 4-piece Explorers Club a couple years ago -- disappointing. The big band version was far superior.
	11:21am Charles in Chicago: ↳ gf2002 @11:18 Pitchfork calls it "A flimsy slice of Bob Dylan" pitchfork.com... the only negative review I've seen (I have not seen the film)
	11:21am egould: ↳ Mark T @11:20 A little bit louder now.
	11:21am Michael Shelley: ↳ myron feld @11:19 yes!
	11:21am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "You're No Good" by "Jose Feliciano" This is awesome
	11:21am clarke: she's always on the go so i'm in love with saturday's child
	11:22am Mark T: ↳ egould @11:21 😂🤣 Yep, that’s it!
	11:22am McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Run, Run, Run" by "Explorers Club, The" I saw a Beach Boys tribute band last summer, and one of the members had been in the Explorers Club (possibly the guy who sang Run Run Run?) They were a fantastic Beach Boys cover band.-- probably better than the current Beach Boys.
	11:22am Michael Shelley: Here's a really badly written negative review: www.bostonglobe.com...
	11:22am Squints: ↳ Mark T @11:20 Uddah way around, methinks, theah.
	11:22am Mark T: ↳ Song: "You're No Good" by "Jose Feliciano" What an awesome cover! Badass
	11:23am Listener Baby: ↳ Michael Shelley @11:22 Paywall.
	11:23am clarke: ↳ Squints @11:22 you have, erah, turned the phrase around, theyah.
	11:24am listener phat in Lincoln: I was just looking up who was playing bass.
	11:24am myron feld: ↳ McGroovey @11:22 McGroovey, was it Sail On? They are great! And it used to be the Explorers Club full lineup actually making money, then they went without Jason Brewer (head EC guy) and were still really good.
	11:24am ?: I loved the Al Kooper Like a Rolling Stone scene. When the organ kicks in, so does the movie.
	11:25am Corey: Good morning Michael and listeners! Nice to have some #1 hit music on the radio as the snow falls.
	11:25am gf2002: ↳ clarke @11:21 Nice one! I love the Guided By Voices cover of it, but the original has those guitars just rocking out. I think Louis Shelton was one of the two leads
	11:26am DJ Johnny Cool: I can barely hear this.
	11:26am clarke: ↳ gf2002 @11:25 louiei and tommy
	11:26am listener phat in Lincoln: https://www.discogs.com/artist/289823-Hugh-McDonald
	11:26am McGroovey: ↳ Mark T @11:20 In upstate NY, we claim Wilmer and the Dukes inspired Otis Day and the Knights. Flashcubes side-project The Fab Cats did a fine Wilmer and the Dukes cover on one of their albums. en.wikipedia.org...
	11:26am John L: I watched Blitz last night, which was just OK, but Paul Weller has a small part. One of his first scenes takes place during an air raid, so he is seen going underground, seeking safety in the tube station. Not sure what time is was; coulda been midnight.
	11:26am Montmaster J: ↳ myron feld @11:19 100%-the judge should have let him play the song. :)
	11:26am berbo: another in the pantheon of 'Run Run Run' songs
	11:27am egould: He’s neat!
	11:27am Moammar: ↳ John L @11:26 Disappointing film. Gotta say.
	11:27am listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ John L @11:26 Lol
	11:27am Listener Baby: Man Baby.Your AI lyric skills are notable.
	11:28am myron feld: Van Gogh didn't win MVP three times.
	11:29am Ciggy: ↳ rx "rexy" scabin @11:10 The guitarist was a band mate of my brothers back in '67.. They once played on Zacherley's UHF TV show Disco Teen on Ch 68
	11:29am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:26 Wait. No. Wilmer cover wasn't by the Fab Cats. Who was it? ... Now I have to figure it out...
	11:29am Listener Baby: ↳ myron feld @11:28 And Vincent couldn’t call a game to save his life.
	11:29am clarke: i am not looking for a xmas movie.
	11:30am Ken From Hyde Park: Anyone yet to see the "Vengeance Most Fowl" Wallace & Gromit movie?
	11:30am berbo: Does Van Gogh have any iconic and humorous quotes?
	11:30am Jeff formerly from Rahway: Glad you went to the 9/11 museum. I was working on the JC waterfront in 2001 and I'd rather erase that day from my mind. Hifivicky and I LOVED the Bob Dylan film. I recognized many of the filming locations. Was it distracting from the plot? Maybe, but I found it fun.
	11:31am TimG: Love Wallace & Gromit….always a blast
	11:31am Bob: Juror #2 terrible. I see the Dylan on NYE largely due to this board. Very good. The liberties were indeed fine and served the big picture. They got the essence right.
	11:31am John L: ↳ Moammar @11:27 A few moments, but kind of bland. I loved much of director Steve McQueen's Small Axe series and Hunger; hard to believe it was the same director.
	11:31am myron feld: If the Dylan movie was made 30 years ago, Johnny Cash would've been played by John Doe.
	11:31am Squints: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:30 Not yet. Did make a point to refamiliarize myself with "Wrong Trousers" first the other day.
	11:32am V: Saw a Ghostlight on Prime. So emotional and great!
	11:32am egould: I watched ‘Hit Man’ this week. It stars Bernie Casey and Pam Grier. Pam Grier’s character is mauled to death by a lion. Highly recommend.
	11:32am Greg from ZONE 5: Anora was definitely the best (new) movie I saw this year. After that and The Florida Project Sean Baker is making a play to become one of my favorite directors.
	11:32am DJ Johnny Cool: The Dylan/Cash bootleg series set is one of my favorites.
	11:32am evancuts: Watched "Yacht Rock: A Dockumentary" last night on Max. Thoroughly enjoyed it. If you don't have HBO, feel free to come over one night--I'd gladly watch it a second time.
	11:32am Moammar: ↳ John L @11:31 Likewise. Small Axe was great. This felt like Hollywood tripe. Cliches and preposterous stuff all the way down.
	11:33am V: BOOKIE on HBO
	11:33am clarke: speaking of locations that are familiar, i caught the film Nightmare, last night - wow. never had seen - amazing. all filmed in new orleans and a plantation nearby. highly recommend.
	11:33am Mr. Jones: ↳ Song: "Wanted Man (take one)" by "Bob Dylan and Johnny C... <3
	11:33am Montmaster J: We liked Juror #2. Thought Toni Collette was excellent as the DA. If you wonder why cases come back on appeal or get dismissed after review here's your answer. Everything wrong with criminal justice system is here. It's not perfect or very realistic but rang true to me.
	11:34am Mark T: ↳ Song: "Wanted Man (take one)" by "Bob Dylan and Johnny C... Cool ass song.
	11:34am John L: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @11:32 Check out his earlier films, like Take Out, Starlet and Tangerine.
	11:34am Listener Baby: The review of movie I sent to Baby, right after seeing movie. Pure, raw, and from the heart. Dylan. Hollywood turd stain. Got through it. Liked first 1/3. Overly long for no good reason. Dude could have cut 10 minutes off the film by just eliminating 5 of the 15 shots of peoples faces being transfixed by the music. oi vey. Norton was great. Read a review that nailed it for me. He called it a Wikipedia page, turned screenplay. The Al Cooper stuff was so poorly done, and so unnecessary. Anyway, the music speaks for itself, and my eyes are just now coming back from the back of my head. Could have been amazing with the tools they had at hand.
	11:34am money&pain: Love the scene in Eat This Document where Cash, sweetly but firmly, explains to Dylan that he's singing I Still Miss Someone wrong.
	11:34am rockity: Love the library shout out, it’s true - museum passes are an excellent resource that your library probably has. Mine even has one for the MOMA, and since it’s a member card you get to cut the line at special exhibits 😻
	11:35am StringOFperils: ↳ evancuts @11:32 Rick Beato expresses his frustration, about a week ago > www.youtube.com...
	11:36am rx "rexy" scabin: @Ciggy I remember the song as Autumn Queen or Harvest Queen or something like that. My brother and I liked it.
	11:36am JG: Michael your comments on Complete Unknown are pretty much what I thought. Really enjoyed it for same reasons you said. Music great. Gets the story right I think. Any inaccuracy regarding specific historical details no big deal. One inaccuracy that I happened to notice though was Dave Van Ronk was sort of shown but really seemed to play no role in the story they were telling. Which is fine, but I think he was actually an influence on Dylan in real life
	11:36am Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ John L @11:34 I've seen Tangerine and Take Out (and Red Rocket), but I'll check out Starlet ASAP!
	11:36am onthetrain: morning #1'ers .
	11:37am rx "rexy" scabin: It's good when you hear the DJ gleefully rubbing his hands together.
	11:37am Mark T: ↳ Squints @11:22 I know, I know. It was a joke.
	11:38am DJ Johnny Cool: Rachel Sweet covered I Go To Pieces.
	11:38am Mark T: ↳ myron feld @11:28 😂🤣😆
	11:39am Corey: ↳ Song: "I Go to Pieces" by "Lloyd Brown" Sooo good. Went to click the star, but already clicked. Ha.
	11:39am Joe B: ↳ Song: "I Go to Pieces" by "Lloyd Brown" great version!
	11:40am Bob: The biggest thing the Dylan movie did for me was send me on a Bob jag. Rewatched the Rolling Thunder doc which is fascinating in every way. Watched Don’t Look Back and a bunch of YouTube things. There’s a long (too) thing with the 66 tour drummer Mickey and his home movies. He’s a blowhard for sure but there’s a lot of interesting stuff in it.
	11:40am gf2002: ↳ JG @11:36 Again I haven't seen it but yes I'd think Dave Van Ronk would have been a bigger character in this film than Johnny Cash. I should rewatch the Coen Brothers' "Inside Llewyn Davis" as an appetizer before seeing the Dylan film
	11:40am Denny Diken: wow, never heard this version of “I Go To Pieces,” cool! it’s one of my favorite songs. The Peter & Gordon version ranks among the finest slabs of recorded sound, IMHO.
	11:41am clarke: schultz: i know nothing!
	11:41am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:29 To answer the question no one asked, it was the Fab Cats. The song is Give Me One More Chance, which is an absolute #1 hit: youtu.be...
	11:41am clarke: ↳ Denny Diken @11:40 i like del's version, too!
	11:42am Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Song: "Ooh, I Don't Feel Nothin'" by "Mande Dahl" I hear Lou Reed/VU "Rock & Roll" in this song.
	11:42am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Ooh, I Don't Feel Nothin'" by "Mande Dahl" Still a lot of shag carpet in recording studios on the day this was recorded. Dead was in, and on it’s way out.
	11:42am gf2002: ↳ Song: "Ooh, I Don't Feel Nothin'" by "Mande Dahl" These tracks are dry as a bone...maybe the studio didn't have a single echo chamber or reverb unit in the house!
	11:42am StringOFperils: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @11:42 No kidding.
	11:42am egould: www.mandedahl.com...
	11:44am Pedro in Arlington: I'm biopic-phobic but in the mid-90s at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival, I watched an unrecognized Pete Seegar walk the Mall picking up any trash and shoving it into his pocket. He looked like any old guy in jeans. Then he met up with Toshie, who was hanging with a few friends on blanket. Was surprised to see her smoking cigarettes, funding Big Tobacco. They were also eating popsicles. True story. Pete was playing the Festival that night.
	11:44am StringOFperils: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @11:42 Oh! Sweet Nuthin', actually
	11:44am clarke: 8/10
	11:44am Moammar: Wise use of bongo feet.
	11:44am Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Livin' Lovin' Wreck" by "Ian and the Zodiacs" Man. Bands sure seemed to be able to go into a studio, and lite it up, back then. And 10 out of 10, Baby!
	11:45am JG: ↳ gf2002 @11:40 Llewyn Davis is a classic. Awesome movie. Funny , sad.... terrific music. I think that movie and its sound track got me into Folk music on a really deeper level.
	11:45am egould: Well placed bongo feet.
	11:46am rx "rexy" scabin: Thank you, Michael and Everyone. I must go.
	11:46am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:41 I couldn't find the Fab Cats covering Wilmer and the Dukes, but here they are giving the Byrds covering Dylan youtu.be...
	11:46am clarke: ↳ JG @11:45 certainly Llewelyn stands up over time!! haven't seen dylan, but that would be difficult to top.
	11:46am McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @11:46 *covering the Byrds
	11:48am Pedro in Arlington: What I absolutely don't understand is people buying the soundtrack to hear Chalamet cover some of the greatest records ever made. The same doofuses own the soundtrack to Beatlemania.
	11:48am Ciggy: Joni Mitchell's negative comments on Dylan - his breath - made me wonder, wasn't she a big smoker
	11:48am Moammar: ↳ Song: "People Are Talking" by "William Bollinger" Good fake Impressions.
	11:48am Bob: Roy Head #1 radio id. That’s how it’s done
	11:49am StringOFperils: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:48 Think about something better. Something worthwhile.
	11:50am Joe B: ↳ Listener Baby @11:34 "He called it a Wikipedia page, turned screenplay." basically every music bio pic ever made!
	11:50am Hughie Considine: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:48 "Yeah, man, unpopular opinion but I prefer the soundtrack to 'Backbeat' to the original songs."
	11:51am Hughie Considine: ↳ Ciggy @11:48 Yep, but Joni was Canadian, so she flossed.
	11:51am Pedro in Arlington: And if you lived in Chicago in the 80s, Sam Lay would invite you to his house and show the home movies he shot at Newport, having played drums for Butterfield and Bob. Lovely guy and family.
	11:52am clarke: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:51 good drummah!
	11:52am Joe B: ↳ Song: "I'll Never Fall In Love Again" by "Ella Fitzgerald" produced by the recently departed richard perry
	11:52am Listener Baby: ↳ Joe B @11:50 Correct, Joe.
	11:53am Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Song: "I'll Never Fall In Love Again" by "Ella Fitzgerald" This is great. I was only aware of the version by East Orange's Dionne Warwick.
	11:53am Mark T: ↳ McGroovey @11:26 Ok. That’s interesting. Going to 2004, I lived in Rochester for a year, Syracuse for about 6 months, and Kingston for 15 months. 20 years ago I Rochester I was still an active alcoholic. While I went to a few shows here and there, all I remember was a year of way too much snow.
	11:53am clarke: ↳ Joe B @11:52 RIP Perry! that slipped by me.
	11:53am Michael Shelley: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:48 AGREE!
	11:54am clarke: ↳ Song: "He'd Be A Diamond" by "Bevis Frond, The" SO yes!!
	11:54am Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Song: "He'd Be A Diamond" by "Bevis Frond, The" Oh sheesh I think my band covered this song in 1992.
	11:55am Bob: ↳ Ciggy @11:48 Bevis Frond is touring the US for the first time in 25 years and playing a tiny Detroit bar. So psyched!
	11:55am Marie in Chicago: Hi Michael, hi Everyone! Sounding gooooood
	11:55am Squints: ↳ Song: "He'd Be A Diamond" by "Bevis Frond, The" I thrash the crap out of this at the open mics.
	11:55am SJ Taper: Bevis Frond! Coming to the states in March!!
	11:56am StringOFperils: ↳ SJ Taper @11:55 Good to know. Maybe he'll swing north.
	11:56am myron feld: ↳ Joe B @11:52 I bought an album(forget which one) at an estate sale and inside was a note from Richard Perry: "To Harold -- Here are some things for Theo to listen to. I'll be sending more shortly. Have a good trip back. Best regards, Richard."
	11:57am Joe B: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:48 bought the beatlemania soundtrack at the winter garden theater after the show!
	11:57am the nOggin: Sounds like elvis costello
	11:57am Hughie Considine: Why would it be pronounced beh-vis though? The Twilight Zone was very clear about Mr. Beevis.
	11:57am StringOFperils: R.I.P. Richard Perry
	11:57am onthetrain: so #1ers what had a friend of a friend ask ( on social media) is music dead. i went on to introduce him to 3 new for 24 songs i heard on wfmu . so my new year's resolution is to spread the good news of musics not dead but spotify is.
	11:57am Kotzwinkled: Nice to hear a surprise Beavis chuckle.
	11:57am Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ SJ Taper @11:55 Nick Saloman played a show in Brooklyn a decade ago and he was a super nice guy. He let me drink all of his beer at the venue.
	11:58am clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:57 tis the way they say it
	11:59am Pedro in Arlington: ↳ Joe B @11:57 I'm waiting for the US mono remaster box.
	11:59am Ciggy: ↳ Song: "He'd Be A Diamond" by "Bevis Frond, The" I'm just an old chunk of coal
	11:59am Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @11:58 Well then I respect it, but looking at the word I'd use a long 'e.' Long live the frond!
	12:00pm Joe B: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:59 i love those types of soundtracks. some are great, some a fabulous train wrecks. The recent Elvis one is one of my faves. Thought i think it was digital only.
	12:00pm newton: I finished it, great fun! sorry about your eye Hughie
	12:01pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @11:59 what happened to your eye???
	12:01pm Joe B: ↳ Pedro in Arlington @11:59 beatlemania anthology! though the Rutles beat them too it with archeology
	12:02pm Hughie Considine: ↳ newton @12:00 Thanks so much, Newton! Totally appreciate you taking a chance! It's all better now (although it's a little smaller than the other one...)
	12:02pm clarke: Archeology is FAB !!
	12:02pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:01 You're gonna have to read the book, schnook!
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:02 ah - long ago!
	12:03pm Handy Haversack: OK, well, we'll see what happens. I don't think I'm going to see the Dylan movie. The other vampire movie out right now seems more interesting.
	12:03pm Moammar: ↳ Song: "Don't It Make You Want to Go Home?" by "Dave Kirby" Nice modulation, champ.
	12:03pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:02 i remember that - thought something more recent happened.
	12:04pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:03 Ah, I see (said the blindman as he picked up his hammer and saw)
	12:04pm Bob Tankenstein: Wassup Michael and the gang. Diggin the tunes per usual
	12:04pm StringOFperils: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:03 *ouch
	12:05pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hoboken Jack @11:01 Happy New Year, Jack! Yeah, that tracks. Although, unless we're grading on a curve, that's better than 99 percent of the movies out there.
	12:05pm listener 126464: ↳ Song: "Ooh, I Don't Feel Nothin'" by "Mande Dahl" Holy moly. Saw them around 79 in the village somewhere. Bought a record with a very pink cover.
	12:05pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:04 i have yet to check my email, sorry
	12:05pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Uncomplicated" by "Elvis Costello" I straight-up love this record. I think it's my fave EC. This song is great.
	12:06pm Joe B: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:05 same!
	12:07pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:05 As I said in June 2023 when Michael played this!
	12:07pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Uncomplicated" by "Elvis Costello" Funny, a few of his late middle period songs are right up there for me. This one for sure.
	12:08pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Joe B @12:06 This song, "Tokyo Storm Warning," and "I Want You" are all-time classics. If those three songs were your whole career, you could look back in pride.
	12:08pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Uncomplicated" by "Elvis Costello" they don't make 'em like this, anymore.
	12:08pm evancuts: The other day I was going through old scrapbooks and found my ticket stubs for Elvis on Broadway from 1986. This song was certainly a highlight. BTW... The five nights (I went to all) cost a total of $100. That's less than half of what the Wellmont is charging for EC and Steve Nieve this spring.
	12:09pm BottleCap: Great show today. Thank you.
	12:09pm Pedro in Arlington: If you want a REAL Bob movie, check out 1987's "Hearts of Fire" with Zimmy, Rupert Everett and Fiona as the triangle love interest. It's Bob's own mid-60s Elvis movie, with tunes found nowhere else. Bob's aging rocker Billy Parker is just waiting to get smacked by a Barbara Stanwyck not in the film.
	12:10pm Moammar: Seabra Marisqueira, baby!
	12:11pm P-90: We’d like to hear a description and review of this Portugese seafood
	12:11pm Hoboken Jack: What subways did you ride, Michael?
	12:11pm Joe B: For someone that works nights in the city, congestion pricing is fucking bullshit. It is literally a cash grab. Has ZERO to do with the environment
	12:12pm Hoboken Jack: The congestion pricing is not that much for the occasional drive in. Turns out to be an extra $6 from NJ.
	12:12pm Handy Haversack: ↳ evancuts @12:08 I just committed myself to two nights of hotel in freaking Tarrytown to see both nights of Magnetic Fields doing 69 Love Songs since I missed it in NYC. I guess you can't take it with you, right? Tarrytown, Dude.
	12:12pm McGroovey: Congestion pricing: I think it's probably the right thing, and if I had a vote, I'd vote for it, but I won't be glad to pay the tolls.
	12:12pm Kotzwinkled: Congestion pricing is good. If you want to cosplay as a New Yorker, you gotta pay the price. But yeah the money will be misused, so it's a wash.
	12:12pm StringOFperils: A transition away from petroleum will not come without pain. And reluctance. And opportunities for corruption and corrupting political capital at every turn.
	12:13pm Guy: It is a tax on people who work in person
	12:13pm Joe B: if they cared about the environment, why not ban ALL non-commercial traffic from the zone?
	12:13pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:11 wouldn't there be passes for regular commuters??
	12:13pm Joe B: ↳ clarke @12:13 there are not
	12:13pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Kotzwinkled @12:12 Every place in the world where it's been put in place, it faced massive anger, lawsuits, intense pressure to cancel it, and severe backlash -- and then everyone came around and started to love it because it actually, measurably decreases unnecessary car traffic.
	12:13pm Peter: "A cash grab" - real NY Post lingo. . How about this...less people driving private vehicles into the core of Manhattan is a win for -everyone- including drivers.
	12:13pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Most live shows in NYC have moved to the far reaches of Brooklyn and Queens. Mass transit crossing the Hudson River is slow, infrequent and expensive. Driving is insanely slow and I live less than 20 miles from Manhattan. I'm considering seeing shows in Philly or Kingston. Too much of a slow, expensive PITA to head to NYC.
	12:13pm Joe B: ↳ Peter @12:13 why not ban uber/lyft?
	12:13pm AYAYRON: Don’t know the dates, but this sounds like “Btown Eyed Girl”
	12:13pm Greg from ZONE 5: Like everything else, it will only affect working/middle class people. Wealthy people will continue driving everywhere unaffected.
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:13 well, that is some bullshit right thar.
	12:14pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @12:13 There are vanishingly few regular car commuters to Manhattan.
	12:14pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:12 Tarrytown isn't a bad place. I thought of buying tickets for one or both of those, but I haven't pulled the trigger. I think other friends of mine are going.
	12:14pm Peter: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:13 Yup - it's like when smokng was going to banned on planes and in the workplace.
	12:14pm Count Reeshard: How close to “Brown-Eyed Girl” could the Raiders get without getting a call from the copyright lawyers?
	12:14pm evancuts: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:12 Saw Richard Thompson in Tarrytown back in Nov. Great venue. The drive from Montclair was only 40 minutes. Easier than driving to NYC for us Jersey folks.
	12:14pm Joe B: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @12:13 exactly. hence, cash grab
	12:14pm Hoboken Jack: For the Joe Belocks of the world, there needs to be a subsidy.
	12:15pm BottleCap: Buy generic. Brand name NyQuil is too expensive.
	12:15pm egould: ↳ Song: "Birds Of A Feather" by "Paul Revere And The Raiders" Number One.
	12:15pm Joe B: ↳ Peter @12:14 it's nothing like that
	12:15pm Guy: It is also a beggar thy neighbor policy. The wealthy who live in Manhattan can foist costs onto those who must work in person and commute
	12:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ evancuts @12:14 We have to leave from Queens at 4 ... I tremble to think what it will be like to get up there!
	12:15pm Lizardner Dave !: What the anti-car folks forget is that a tax on cars is a tax on the mobility impaired. Try getting around NY in a wheelchair or even with one bad leg and a cane without using a taxi or Uber. It's not fun.
	12:15pm newton: Im not happy about the tax on drivers. I work with stuff and so have to move around stuff. Also always have a dog in tow. cant carry 150 lbs of camera and film and a dog and get in and out the subway, and then to wherever, and back
	12:15pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: NJT from Rahway to NYC is slower, less reliable and offers fewer trains now than in the 1980s.
	12:16pm Peter: The avg income of people who drive in far exceeds those that take public transport. And the number of people who drive in is tiny compared to the above.
	12:16pm Joe B: all the people who are for it are also the same people who ask me for rides or can afford to splurge for an uber.
	12:16pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Lizardner Dave ! @12:15 Ive read there are many exemptions
	12:17pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:16 Exemptions seem to be only for NY State drivers with NY EzPass.
	12:17pm Joe B: ↳ Peter @12:16 i'd love to never drive. public transportation is way insufficient and this shit will not address anything regarding NJ Transit and PATH
	12:17pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Joe B @12:16 lol !
	12:17pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Joe B @12:16 Joe, we'd be honored to pick you up on the drive in to NYC. WFMU needs to start a rideshare board!
	12:18pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Joe B @12:17 Yup
	12:18pm newton: I didnt see any real exemptions. if you make less than 60k AND drive in more than 10 times a month then the drives OVER the first ten will be discounted, they havent said how much
	12:18pm Joe B: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:17 i have been taking names!
	12:18pm evancuts: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:15 In that case sounds like a great idea to book a hotel and make a mini-vacation. Lots of interesting things to see in Tarrytown. Beautiful walks along the Hudson and lots of historic houses to visit.
	12:18pm Joe B: ↳ Peter @12:16 you completely miss the point.
	12:18pm Greg from ZONE 5: ↳ Song: "Mr. Whiz" by "Jerry Reed" "I'm the fastest there is" is kind of a weird flex, Jerry.
	12:18pm Guy: Cities need to cut costs or raise their revenue. NYC wastes its money. Therefore the government will try to raise money any way it can. They will rationalize it with progressive justifications as a way to mollify voters.
	12:19pm Montmaster J: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:12 Well...the Music Hall is great place to see a show.
	12:19pm Michael Shelley: ↳ BottleCap @12:15 Agree!
	12:19pm Michael Shelley: ↳ evancuts @12:14 Philly is easier!
	12:19pm misterdavid: Always emotionally shattering, thanks
	12:19pm clarke: denny!
	12:19pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Sigh, I miss Maxwell's.
	12:20pm Joe B: everyone cheering for this never was waiting at port authority for a NJ Transit bus that never showed at 2:30 am after a 12-hour workday.
	12:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ evancuts @12:18 Yeah, that's the plan. We were going to go just for Sat. night, and then we realized, well, it's always the shows you miss that you regret, not the ones you go to. Mostly.
	12:20pm StringOFperils: Maybe the new federal regime's anti-environmental mandate will simply (or not simply) hobble the state and city efforts to implement it.
	12:20pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Go Now" by "Bessie Banks" This is one of my single favorite songs. It might actually be my all time favorite songs. I bought the Moody Blues version, not realizing that they changed sound drastically and I kind of decided I didn't like any other Moody Blues.
	12:21pm Pedro in Arlington: FYI To save money for congestion pricing, the REAL Bob movie "Hearts of Fire" can be streamed FREE through the public library app "hoopla."
	12:21pm Joe B: ↳ StringOFperils @12:20 nah, they will enjoy hurting cities, which this will do.
	12:21pm listener phat in Lincoln: Always gives a tear or two, without fail.
	12:21pm Handy Haversack: ↳ StringOFperils @12:20 This is why it's going into effect now, even though Governor Coward had already postponed it until after the election and slashed the revenue it will raise.
	12:21pm egould: ↳ Guy @12:18 The Washington State government urges people to drive electric vehicles and take public transportation. People buy electric cars and take public transportation. The State of Washington complains of budget shortfalls due to declining gasoline tax revenues. Government is fucked.
	12:22pm Guy: ↳ egould @12:21 Yes
	12:22pm Michael Shelley: ↳ evancuts @12:14 By The Way = just saw RT at South Orange Whole Foods - freezing cold day - he was in shorts
	12:23pm McGroovey: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @12:13 Yeah, as it is, it costs me $25-40 in tolls round-trip (cheaper if I go through Manhattan) already to get to Brooklyn. It costs me $14 round-trip on mass transit, but it takes 2+ hours to get home (vs 45 min in the car) after midnight. Yeah, this is why it's a pita to go to Brooklyn for shows.
	12:23pm StringOFperils: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:21 That's the sort of thing I expect to see. That and absurdly unilateral reversals. Time will tell.
	12:23pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Tus Ojos" by "Edmuno Arais" Sucker for this sound.
	12:23pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:22 his legs are bulletproof!
	12:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ StringOFperils @12:23 In the meantime, my letters to the City Council about banning kids from parks are going totally ignored!
	12:24pm Guy: ↳ McGroovey @12:23 Country life has some nice features.
	12:24pm StringOFperils: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:24 Ha ha ha. Soldier on Handy.
	12:25pm Joe B: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:21 'slashed the revenue it will raise.' so it is not about the environment at all.
	12:25pm BobOnStatenIsland: Congestion Pricing will raise prices on everything in Manhattan, ruin downtown & midtown businesses, generate millions to be money laundered to who knows who (the MTA will NEVER be in the black, it is an enormous money laundering scheme disguised as a transit system. Remember when it was caught running two sets of books years ago? Nobody was fired, nobody went to jail, then they raised fairs). Now, let's say this scheme runs for 4 weeks, then is determined unconstitutional, is the State required to return the money to those it robbed?
	12:26pm Pedro in Arlington: To save more money for congestion pricing, check if your library offers "Kanopy." Lots of excellent free streaming including a lot of Criterion collection.
	12:26pm clarke: that cupcake is causing Turntable One to protest.
	12:26pm jack: don't know if anyone answered, but he wasn't drunk. Just talking about his love for someone feels close to death
	12:26pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Don't Worry About the Government (Live At CBGB 10... Not that CD player, the other one.
	12:26pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Song: "Don't Worry About the Government (Live At CBGB 10... Michael, stop dancing around the studio. You're making the turntable bounce.
	12:26pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Don't Worry About the Government (Live At CBGB 10... Jesus goddamn Christ they were great, and seemingly, great out of the booth. And there's just nothing like them.
	12:26pm Squints: I like how Michael is respecting the non-disparagement agreement with Turntable One.
	12:26pm evancuts: I guess we SHOULD worry about the government.
	12:26pm Guy: ↳ Joe B @12:25 The government would not create a new tax just for the environment. Taxes are created to raise revenue for the government
	12:27pm listener phat in Lincoln: Clean the stylus!
	12:27pm egould: ↳ egould @12:21 You know what is not fucked? This crème brulée latté. It’s freaking delicious.
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ Squints @12:26 there is a gag order.
	12:27pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Joe B @12:25 Joe, I love you and so don't want to argue, but the revenue is meant to maintain and expand the MTA, and public transit rather than cars is desperately needed for the environment. I don't know enough about NJ politics to know why the NJT budget has been slashed and service is so terrible, but it seems like that was a political choice at some point.
	12:27pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:26 Another DJ was having trouble with a CD player the other day. Probably that one.
	12:27pm GeoSinPhilly: ↳ Song: "Don't Worry About the Government (Live At CBGB 10... Love the bass line in the "Loved ones, Loved Ones" section.
	12:27pm Joe B: ↳ Guy @12:26 i am aware of that. but many others are not
	12:27pm Handy Haversack: ↳ egould @12:27 I'm worried about this vegan strata.
	12:28pm Guy: ↳ Joe B @12:27 Yes
	12:28pm clarke: the heads had a tempo issue at CB's.
	12:28pm Guy: Best recording ever. Just let it play like that for a while.
	12:29pm Joe B: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 but if no one drives, there will be no revenue from this plan. but people will keep driving, and paying, because the MTA will not make improvements, or good enough improvements. it is a scam.
	12:29pm Marit: can happend to the best
	12:29pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Don't Worry About the Government (Live At CBGB 10... Good morning. Technical difficulties notwithstanding, I am very much enjoying this live record!
	12:29pm Michael Shelley: ↳ evancuts @12:08 And that's before he had permanent laryngitis
	12:29pm Joe B: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 'public transit rather than cars is desperately needed for the environment.' this plan will do nothing to that end.
	12:29pm Michael Shelley: ↳ BottleCap @12:09 THANKS BC!
	12:30pm egould: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 What’s that Talking Heads song? ‘Don’t Worry About the Vegan Strata’?
	12:30pm pgalub: Hey Michael and everyone. Happy New Year!
	12:31pm McGroovey: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:27 People don't want to "subsidize" transit... Even though they complain about traffic, and complain about NJT fares, and about NJT service. But they don't even think about how much they subsidize road construction and repairs. Except they complain about paying taxes, and cheer when taxes are cut. And then complain when services are cut. People
	12:31pm Handy Haversack: ↳ egould @12:30 NOW we gotta worry about CD Player 1!
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ pgalub @12:30 hello. hello.
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:31 the union rep is on the way down. but, he has transit issues.
	12:32pm Marie in Chicago: the South as depicted in 60s pop--a den of dysfunction--wiiiild
	12:33pm McGroovey: ↳ Joe B @12:29 Why do you think this money won't help transit? "Because politicians always steal the money." is too Trump.
	12:33pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:33 Trumpy
	12:34pm egould: Time for kitchen duty. Fresh squeezed oj mimosas. Greek omelette (sundried tomatoes, green onion, kalamata olives, feta cheese). Leftover pork chop. Thanks Michael!
	12:34pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:33 actually MS said that, not joe
	12:34pm StringOFperils: C.W. McCall's real name was Howard Taft Feinstein
	12:34pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:34 A lot of people say that, not just MS.
	12:34pm Guy: MTA is not making enough money to cover costs. Therefore it must raise prices (which is politically impractical) or money must come from other sources.
	12:34pm evancuts: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:22 We hung out w/ RT at W's holiday party. He wore trousers. BTW You were missed!
	12:34pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @12:33 look at the MTA's track (pun) record. and also, why is none of this going to help the transit from MJ/CT/upstate?
	12:35pm Joe B: ↳ Joe B @12:34 NJ
	12:35pm clarke: new jersey - pants optional.
	12:36pm McGroovey: ↳ Joe B @12:34 We should obviously have a regional, interstate transit agency, but that would require federal legislation, and Republicans would never vote for it
	12:36pm Guy: A commuter tax is politically expedient because out of state voters have no say in the matter
	12:37pm Michael Shelley: ↳ evancuts @12:34 Juniper's birthday...
	12:38pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @12:33 when I drive to Brooklyn from Bayonne, I play the double tolls - Verrazano and Bayonne bridges. I don't complain about that. Because there are bridges. that are maintained and that work.
	12:38pm clarke: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:37 HB JS!!
	12:38pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 The Port Authority was set up as such an agency 80 years ago but speaking as someone who worked for a PANYNJ Commissioner, the board is extremely parochial, with the individual board members reporting to their respective governors' political whims and ignoring the overall needs of the entire region.
	12:38pm Mark T: What’s up with your CD player dude? Somebody feeding it Gummies? lol
	12:38pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Guy @12:34 Or... cut the mismanagement
	12:39pm Joe B: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 if the congestion pricing had some kind of actual plan, like a percentage was going to upgrade transit to and from the city, then fine. that is not what this is.
	12:39pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Vamos Chegar Pra Lá" by "Jackson do Pandiero" What an earworm!
	12:40pm Guy: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:38 And stop the fair beaters. Also, make the subways safe so that more people can use them.
	12:41pm drr: ↳ John L @11:26 did he have a takeaway curry?
	12:41pm Joe B: all these people cheering for it will happily hop in an uber the next time they are out late because they can afford it.
	12:41pm clarke: always a dreamer!
	12:42pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Insecre" by "Joan Jett" I guess it wasn't a bad Talking Heads CD.
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:42 the evidence is clear, but union disagrees.
	12:43pm clarke: can i buy a vowel, pat?
	12:43pm Mark T: Joan Jett have a stutter?
	12:43pm McGroovey: ↳ Joe B @12:41 I've never used Uber (or the others) because I'm a cheapskate. I can walk or take the bus, if I'm not driving.
	12:44pm berbo: I liked the Joan Jett doc "Bad Reputation", a lot.
	12:44pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:43 this raises a question: is there a way to cycle to the island??
	12:45pm Handy Haversack: OK, vegan strata -- here we go!
	12:45pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:39 The wormiest
	12:45pm Listener Baby: ↳ Song: "Got Any Money?" by "Los Shakers" Was there any question?
	12:45pm clarke: the musical answer: nope.
	12:46pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ Song: "Got Any Money?" by "Los Shakers" Andrew Hickey's episode on these guys is so appreciated.
	12:46pm McGroovey: And despite the negative media attention now, I think the subways and the streets of NYC are pretty safe--especially compared to NYC in the '80s and early '90s, and to, say, New Orleans today (and I'm not talking about the terrorist guy--that's an anomaly anywhere outside the Middle East).
	12:46pm Moammar: ↳ Song: "Got Any Money?" by "Los Shakers" Lovely harmony. Terrible grammar. "Yes, I got job."
	12:46pm listener phat in Lincoln: This reminds me that I probably still need to make a beat music.
	12:46pm drr: ↳ Greg from ZONE 5 @11:32 Starlet is great, and I re-watched Red Rocket last week--I really liked the character Lonnie. I need to rewatch Tangerine next. But, yeah, big fan of Sean Baker. I actually went to a building called a THE-ATER to see Anora, so: high praise.
	12:47pm listener phat in Lincoln: Best music record...
	12:47pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:46 public transit in nola is much improved these days.
	12:47pm KWilde: Hit after hit
	12:48pm Listener Baby: ↳ KWilde @12:47 I’ll say!
	12:48pm Hubig Pie: ↳ clarke @12:47 I hear they gots a streetcar in the Nin't Ward!
	12:48pm BobOnStatenIsland: ↳ Guy @12:36 MTA already gets State & Fed subsidies 🤷‍♂️
	12:48pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ clarke @12:47 It seems like a relatively easy town to get around, although I've had rides from you both times I've been there.
	12:49pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:48 sorta
	12:49pm lentils: Awesome show, Mike!
	12:49pm clarke: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:48 da tracks only go a little bit into da nint.
	12:49pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:45 K8's review: "Super tasty!" We'll call it a win.
	12:49pm Guy: ↳ McGroovey @12:46 What happened to improve subway safety after the early 90s?
	12:49pm bobob Plasticland: slot better than the Fortunes
	12:51pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Tears A Go-Go" by "Charlie Rich" CHARLES!!
	12:52pm Listener Baby: Shoes at the Whiskey. So amazing. Ric Menck on the drums. Crowded House also memorable there. The Plugz too. So many.
	12:53pm StringOFperils: Great show, Michael. Thanks for getting us from there to here, in the most un-taxing way possible!
	12:53pm clarke: ↳ Listener Baby @12:52 damn!
	12:53pm JG: ↳ Joe B @12:41 And they are trying to force you onto their shitty mass transit where you can be stabbed, lit on fire or shoved in front of an oncoming train. It is bullshit indeed.
	12:53pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Song: "Tears A Go-Go" by "Charlie Rich" During prohibition I ran a place, Whiskey-a-No-No
	12:54pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:53 it was a speak-difficult
	12:54pm Listener Baby: Shows just flooding back. Wall of Voodoo shows at Whiskey, so electrifying.
	12:55pm Hoboken Jack: Gift article for those interested: Subway Violence Stubbornly Defies All Efforts to Quell It www.nytimes.com...
	12:55pm clarke: i'm kinda diggin' this...
	12:55pm egould: I saw a million shows at the Whisky. Fu Manchu, Shonen Knife, Sonic Youth, White Zombie, Redd Kross, Circle Jerks, Dickies, Big Drill Car, Further. Many many more. My best memory was being super high on acid (and other stuff) and having my brain completely shattered at a Monster Magnet show. Fun times.
	12:55pm Squints: Player One ain't movin' no rope.
	12:56pm Hughie Considine: I thought I was the only one who burns stuff onto expensive blank CDs. I use a two-well AIWA that i had to replace after about 20 years, but it's not a bad way of digitizing songs from LPs.
	12:56pm newton: ↳ McGroovey @12:46 I know someone was pushed onto the tracks a few weeks ago. nypost reported minor injuries - he just spent 2 weeks in ICU. I dont think they are pretty safe. the nurses in icu said they typically have 7 patients who were pushed in the subway at any time
	12:56pm neveract: you need the 45rpm CD's..
	12:56pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, MS! See you all on the trains, Shellegamers!
	12:56pm steveo: I for one enjoyed hearing the broken CD player and I consider it a minimalist masterpiece
	12:57pm Hughie Considine: ↳ newton @12:56 That is horrifying. I always keep away from the edge.
	12:57pm StringOFperils: Badly Byrned.
	12:57pm Hoboken Jack: Thank you, Michael!
	12:57pm drr: ↳ listener phat in Lincoln @12:48 No, it's ridiculous. Just for me to get down town I have to hope a drawbridge isn't up or a train isn't crossing the main street that goes that way. And I live like three miles from downtown. Important roads have car-swallowing potholes.
	12:57pm Handy Haversack: ↳ newton @12:56 Out of literally millions. If we want anecdotal evidence, I have lived in Brooklyn for over twenty-five years and never, ever seen any violence on the subway.
	12:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Michael. Next DJ coming up on or close to schedule.
	12:57pm clarke: no one's calling...
	12:57pm listener phat in Lincoln: Essential part of one of the favorite records I ever made.
	12:58pm Squints: Thanks, Michael. Time to decompress for an hour or so then hit the broories and dives.
	12:58pm clarke: ever get the feelin' you been kenned?? good nite...
	12:58pm listener phat in Lincoln: Thanks Michael. Happy New Year everyone!
	12:58pm steveo: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:57 Darn straight.
	12:59pm clarke: what is it good for?
	12:59pm KWilde: Thanks MS!
	1:00pm listener phat in Lincoln: ↳ drr @12:57 I did notice the rough roads. They're terrible here, too, so I don't really think about them normally.
