	9:14am Cricket: meow meow love tom meow
	9:30am James in ATL: Bob, Thanks for another Tommy show. The thing I love about NRBQ is they take more chances on stage in one night than many bands take in their entire career.
	9:55am john: "Roll Call" is such a beautiful song.
	10:11am Ben: WPRB is 103.3 and they broadcast live on the internet wprb.org
	10:19am moe: my daughter loves the frogs, thanks...
	10:20am Josh Norton: The instrumental version of Smackaroo is on the Through The Eyes Of A Quartet compilation on Demon, released in the UK. That sound you referred to is a chainsaw, played by Phil Collison, a member of the NRBQ road crew.
	10:22am Jeff: Listening in Rio de Janeiro Rest in peace, Tommy I'll be at Iridium on Tuesday to see Terry and the boys Thanks Bob
	10:23am Alicia Renee: beautiful.

	9:44am Robbie: Thanks for such a great tribute show Bob. I have a VHS tape of NRBQ Playing with John Sebastian at the Wax Museum in DC in 1982. I think NRBQ released an audio CD of that show, but my VHS tape has the entire performance. I remember at one poit John Sebastian fell backwards over a monitor during one song, and got up and said "What a pratfall".
	4:25pm Vicki Clark: Thanks Bob, this playlist is a terrific survey of NRBQ and friends, and a fitting tribute to Tom. Saw NRBQ Jan 13 2012 at VA Beach, band was high energy and sounded great.
	11:01pm Gina Roma: Great show and props to Robbie from the wax museum and the awesome john s comment- I was there too and watched the 'prat fall' Such a fab comment!
