	9:21am Brian in UK: Hello trouble. Stevie sounds as fresh as ever. Cherry blossoms just starting to say hello. Heavy winds mean they may not stay too long.
	9:21am erella: Triish, thank you for the tip. I think it might be easier for Trouble because people always ask a few times (usually not just me) who is today's artist.

	9:26am Vorsprung durch Technik: morning, robots!
	9:26am trouble: we are drawing up plans for the bespoke chicken coop, asking friends for wood (they are coming through!) they might have laying about. want to plant an herb garden atop to make into a cold frame come fall. hope to have the girls by may. thanks for asking!
	9:27am lane: ZOOROPA!
	9:27am trouble: good morning lane! welcome aboard. bonjour lucky!
	9:28am Brian in UK: Good luck, it's funny we end up calling them the 'girls'.
	9:28am lane: oh... and on that tip, today is my brother Chad's birthday, and in honor of that I'm going to see my therapist... all that mushroom shit, YES!!!!!!
	9:29am PKNY: Donny Hathaway is so necessary today, thanks for playing.
	9:30am Vivian: Trouble-thanks for the update! Once decided, will you post your coop plans on a future playlist?
	9:32am Van in DC: @trouble @9:09 - Yes the cherry blossoms are pretty much gone here. But! The shuttle Discovery should be buzzing us here in oh, about half an hour :)
	9:34am Josh: I loved the Cage. The wonder and the Wyatt. Thanks trouble. On the train to work at Columbia U.
	9:34am Josh: Trouble. Please delete two of my triplicates. This iPhone app is sometimes problematic.
	9:37am Simon: Just checking the playlist to see who that was, and I thought I should pitch in with: CRACKING MUSIC, thanks!
	9:38am Braveness23: This sounds like my back yard...
	9:39am common: calendar is quite rapid
	9:45am dc pat: Sunny Afternoon! WOO! Technically, the Emancipation Proclamation freed all the slaves in the South. Lincoln was primarily interested in sticking it to the South. Wasn't until the 13th Amendment that slavery was outlawed everywhere in the US.
	9:46am Cecile: Businesses in our area who start up in the suburbs are now working with transit to improve mass transit so they can get inner city workers to good entry-level jobs. I think that is a huge part of the puzzle.
	9:48am Brian in UK: Like the suede trousers, got them in Lord Johns on the Kings Road. There're fab don't you think. Saw Paul & Jane outside.
	9:50am lane: omg, it's so good to be back!... I love you FMU!
	9:50am Cecile: Juneteenth is when the government went into Texas and said, "hey now. Get with the program."
	9:56am Tom - In Gravesend Brooklyn: Great show as always when I can catch it now in real Time !!! ... loving the sunny great days also but at the same time thinking bout a rain dance y'all !!!
	9:59am trouble: yes tom in gravesend! i am concerned about lack of water, (lack of water in relation to mosquitos=good), but we need it now...
	10:02am herb: oops, sorry - i'm not tuning in to yr show now, trouble. reason: new STEVIE (belle & s) JACKSON cd, "(i can't get no) stevie jackson" (cute, eh?). he's got a 'french' song, "where do all the good girls go?". very nice; he played it last thur at the bell house. try it!
	10:03am Kevin: trouble, thanks for making tuesday afternoons in sweden so sweet
	10:03am Tom - In Gravesend Brooklyn: ... at little disturbing also , when I was on the train going over the Manhattan bridge yesterday , is this weird sludgy stuff running down the center of the East River... just enjoying the Tunes now ,, and now the birds and soon to hear your voice and your occasional infectious sweet laugh to investigate it further now....
	10:06am Aaron in Jcity: VOTE 2A 4A 5A!
	10:07am Cecile: The Feds have to step in.
	10:08am Edwrd HJJ: Yes Trouble. By all means, continue to yammer. Yammer on girl!!!
	10:08am trouble: hey do sverige! love to all things swedish
	10:09am sugarwolf: Hey hey, listening at work... There was an article in the paper this morning about how it could be a hot dry summer and a possible drought.
	10:10am trouble: merci aaron!! thanks herb sounds great, will look for it! good morning sugarwolf!
	10:10am Cecile: I didn't believe stuff like that happened anymore until I saw footage of the Newark sheriff's department tearing down Cory Booker posters during his first run.
	10:11am Jennique: Morning Trouble. Biked in this morning and saw many birds along the river on the way. Funny thing, this weekend I actually saw a Peregrine Falcon fighting with a red tailed hawk over the river. The falcon tumbled into the water and swam to the shore accompanied by some Canadian geese. When I got closer he flew away. All in NYC. Cray•zee.
	10:12am dc pat: falcons can swim?
	10:14am Tom - In Gravesend Brooklyn: watch out for those Swans though > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vv3DReGpPAw
	10:14am Mike East: Morning everyone. What're we talking about? Birds? Water? Local politics?
	10:14am Jennique: Not very well, but yeah, falcons can swim.
	10:16am Brian in UK: Ofcourse Jane went on to act & bake yummy cakes. Well Paul, you know, met someone else. But on the Kings Road they looked so happy.
	10:16am patrick: good morning trouble. its always a good time for some wings!
	10:16am kwhitehead: Love the wheezy organ in this Wings song!
	10:20am Jennique: Tom in Gravesend Brooklyn - some swans did that very same thing to my dog, a Boston terrier. It was like the reaction you get when you put a cross in front of Dracula's face, lots of hissing and revulsion.
	10:21am herb: on that skool thread, i grew up in bklyn and went to SHEEPSHEAD BAY H.S. but now they're in trouble. i learned about it via <sheepsheadbites.com>; they've been writing about it for awhile. go to the site & scroll (the v.voice said this was 1 of the best nyc sites. yeah!)
	10:21am vanya: thank you for great music trouble! i DO enjoy! and luck with your elections in NJ. we in moscow also have some election-related problem
	10:21am Tom - In Gravesend Brooklyn: yep thought the Geese for sure would win out !!! go Figure ....
	10:22am Marmalade Kitty: morning/afternoon! palemaleirregulars.blogspot.com/2008/.../swimming-falcon-and-pale-male-and-lolas.html
	10:23am moose: checking in to say i've been having to be listening on archives
	10:26am Mike East: Roberta Flack comes in here sometimes. She seems like a pretty nice lady - especially for a diva (is she considered a diva?)
	10:27am dc pat: freakin space shuttle just flew over our building!
	10:27am Cecile: she is a singing diva, maybe not a diva-personality.
	10:27am Van in DC: Wow, that was awesome. The shuttle Discovery just took DC by storm. Thousands upon thousands on the national mall.
	10:28am triish: is devo the male equivalent to diva?
	10:28am trouble: wow vanya in moscow! yes you do have some election problems of your own, good luck with that!
	10:29am triish: ..I never made it past this Diva definition: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082269/
	10:30am Tom - In Gravesend Brooklyn: ... wouldn't that be Dino... haha...
	10:31am lane: it's so weird how pop music and rock and roll is this distillation from the black church. and as such is really just "preachin' the word" minus the mystic jew... AMEN Sister! I'm feelin' the love!
	10:31am trouble: whoa, there is just way too much fab convo on this playlist today: shuttles overhead, swimming fighting hawks, far away cities, i feel elated and exhausted just trying to absorb it all.
	10:34am dc pat: mahalia's silent night is in the Xmas time playlist rotation nowadays...
	10:35am lane: amen...
	10:36am Jennique: Van in DC: that is incredible! I am jealous you got to see the shuttle Discovery fly overhead! I thought seeing the Blue Angels was cool, but that wins, hands down.
	10:38am Van in DC: Not just me for sure lol. I've not seen that many people on the national mall in a very long time...I think the locals outnumbered the tourists for once :) That was very special and moving though. For me anyway.
	10:41am asjon: saw Shabazz Palaces this weekend, they were really good live
	10:42am northguineahills: Working on a very whacked sleeping schedule. Woke up during Julies's set, went back to sleep around 5ish, and now woke up in the middle of Trouble's.
	10:50am Van in DC: Live - Final Discovery landing http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/discovery/index.html
	10:50am Junior Barnes: I'm gonna get you Cos, you gunky.
	10:53am dc pat: grew up listening to Cos records. Chicken heart is great.
	10:54am G: Today's news says a shuttle will overfly NYC in the same way this coming Monday, before it is landed at JFK and driven to the Intrepid museum on the west side of midtown Manhattan...
	10:55am Mike East: big fan of Chicken Heart, dc pat. I incorporated it into some experimental 4 track recording I was doing about 10 years ago...though it was processed to be almost unrecognizable.
	10:56am Brian in UK: Meghan played 'Revenge' last week in her themed programme. He was never that popular over here, personally cannot get enough of him. Loved the name of his record label Tetragrammaton.
	10:56am Van in DC: You can track all of the Shuttle activities very nicely right about... here... :) http://www.collectspace.com/shuttles/
	10:57am Cecile: even a lot of his 80s stuff is funny. I still crack up at his whole bit about being drunk "I LOVE YOU TOILET BOWL!"
	10:58am Brian in UK: trouble I take issue; Cosby is monologues not standups. He does not tell jokes as such.
	10:58am David: I was on the fence about seeing Shabazz Palaces tonight in Bmore, but now I'm on it. Thanks for the extra push!
	10:59am Cecile: Brian, over here stand-up is pretty much any comedian standing in front on an audience. It's just a catch-all.
	10:59am Brian in UK: David, I did not go when they came to London not so long ago. Still regretting it. Do it.
	11:00am Cecile: you could just teach art in general. Go to the vet's admin and sit down with some folks and paint.
	11:01am Brian in UK: Thanks Cecile, there are so many over here trying to be funny it is desparate.
	11:02am Ken From Hyde Park: Wow....that's a lot of folks taking their own lives. Lots of family members affected, of course. Truly sad.
	11:02am Marmalade kitty: horrible, but It makes sense.. in a crazy harsh real way :(
	11:03am Cecile: I have to say, Brian, please take no offense, that I find British comic actors and presenters way funnier than much of the stand-up I've seen over here (and I get most of the jokes, being an Anglophile and whatnot). I think Top Gear is one of the funniest shows of all time.
	11:03am dc pat: what was the statistic again? I missed it.
	11:03am allan: 18 vet suicides a day. folks in the military get frequent "anti-suicide" checkups. what would you do after multiple tours upon coming home and finding out no one really cares?
	11:03am I X Key!: irresponsible! truly irresponsible op us!
	11:03am moose reading comments: the shuttle in ny will go by boat up the hudson
	11:04am lane: "The Modern World with Trouble"... indeed.
	11:04am Cecile: Trouble, what's even harder to deal with is that many of the vet resources that were there for Vietnam are gone.
	11:06am trouble: dc pat: for every one death overseas 25 returning veterans take their own lives here.
	11:07am Cecile: I think people are more conscious of what veterans go through. But it's the whole gap beween knowing about it, and doing something about it.
	11:08am triish: Maybe the chain of command form of mgt was more prevalent in society years ago, making for an easier transition to and fro? Unquestioned authority?
	11:08am dc pat: thanks trouble. terrible.
	11:08am northguineahills: @dc pat, I was watching the footage of Discovery, did it land in Andrews AFB?
	11:08am Kayt: bom dia trouble! gosto da musica-- nao exishte molieado iguao au prantu, lula cortese zey ramalieu
	11:09am stu: You preach Girl ! ( mighty woman ) We all need to do more keep our counrty out of wars that are not about defending the counrty( which pretty much means everything after WWII)...which leaves vets feeling like the killing they participate in is more criminal than patriotic. Then Cecile's idea of support for vets any way we can is IT. and all I was gonna say was "great show !" huh!
	11:09am dc pat: ngh: I dunno, I was just sitting here and it flew over (Arlington). I didn't know it was happening.
	11:09am Van in DC: Discovery landed at Dulles. The Smithsonian Air & Space museum there will be her new home.
	11:12am northguineahills: ahhh, I just thought it would be inconvenient to clear up a whole runway for awhile at a busy commercial airport.
	11:12am northguineahills: I see the commercial craft now....
	11:13am dc pat: the problem is, we have lost any common sense. Right-wingers define when/how we go to war, and then convince the country that it's socialism to take care of the vets when they come home. Hopeless.
	11:14am Van in DC: I believe it was runway "1A Right" :)
	11:14am Jennique: Thanks for the news about the shuttle Enterprise coming to NYC next week. I knew that the Intrepid was going to host a shuttle but now I know all the particulars. Trouble, if you find a way to volunteer your art services for veterans, please keep me in the loop as it sounds like something I would be interested in as well.
	11:14am Aaron in Jcity: its a sports website but the names is good http://cosbysweaters.com/
	11:16am ?: more cowbell
	11:18am trouble: jennique! you know a certain young man who is going to be excited about the enterprise heading to one of his favorite museums...dulles airport arm of the air and space museum is truly incredible for those who have not visited.
	11:20am trouble: has everybody seen henri the cat faux french nouvelle vague superstar of youtube? SO FAB. i put up a link on the facebook page for the show.www.facebook.com...
	11:22am Van in DC: Indeed about the Air & Space museum! I was honored to have seen the Enterprise ALSO fly piggyback into Scott AFB for an air show in 84 I think it was. We got to go aboard her. What a thrill that was.
	11:29am lane: hey Van, I saw that same shuttle tour! at Hill AFB. funny. Reposted the link to the show on FB... u know, my evangelical tendencies. I really gotta get more Paul Weller... I-Tunes!
	11:30am David: I started listening to your show when I tuned in randomly one day and heard you play Georgia. Love her! I saw in her in Bmore recently and she's just truth, such a pure musical soul (and her beats ain't bad either)
	11:34am trouble: david, she does put out a gorgeous vibe on stage!
	11:34am Van in DC: Awesome lane :)
	11:34am pierre: Bonjour Trouble! Bonjour listeners!
	11:36am trouble: hey pierre! hey to stu too!
	11:37am lane: it was quite a sight wasn't it van, piggy backed on that 747... The Modern World INDEED!
	11:39am Van in DC: Amazing sight. Back then and today :)
	11:43am Cheri Pi: I had the pleasure of posting that cat video on Pierre's fb page-sorry mon ami!
	11:46am Kayt: quasi la trouble! sorry, i should have included spaces
	11:47am Cecile: "Pay attention to the cat. They never do."
	11:47am mg: Aww. France Gall. Thanks, Trouble.
	11:49am pierre: @CheriPi: merci beaucoup i couldnt watch it yet, im keeping it for later :)
	11:53am trouble: kayt, thanks for your undying support even though it's apparent it appears I don't have the innate gene to learn portugese.
	11:58am trouble: toottles friends! merci and sunshiney week to all

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	10:03am Kevin: trouble, thanks for making tuesday afternoons in sweden so sweet
	10:03am Tom - In Gravesend Brooklyn: ... at little disturbing also , when I was on the train going over the Manhattan bridge yesterday , is this weird sludgy stuff running down the center of the East River... just enjoying the Tunes now ,, and now the birds and soon to hear your voice and your occasional infectious sweet laugh to investigate it further now....
	10:06am Aaron in Jcity: VOTE 2A 4A 5A!
	10:07am Cecile: The Feds have to step in.
	10:08am Edwrd HJJ: Yes Trouble. By all means, continue to yammer. Yammer on girl!!!
	10:08am trouble: hey do sverige! love to all things swedish
	10:09am sugarwolf: Hey hey, listening at work... There was an article in the paper this morning about how it could be a hot dry summer and a possible drought.
	10:10am trouble: merci aaron!! thanks herb sounds great, will look for it! good morning sugarwolf!
	10:10am Cecile: I didn't believe stuff like that happened anymore until I saw footage of the Newark sheriff's department tearing down Cory Booker posters during his first run.
	10:11am Jennique: Morning Trouble. Biked in this morning and saw many birds along the river on the way. Funny thing, this weekend I actually saw a Peregrine Falcon fighting with a red tailed hawk over the river. The falcon tumbled into the water and swam to the shore accompanied by some Canadian geese. When I got closer he flew away. All in NYC. Cray•zee.
	10:12am dc pat: falcons can swim?
	10:14am Tom - In Gravesend Brooklyn: watch out for those Swans though > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vv3DReGpPAw
	10:14am Mike East: Morning everyone. What're we talking about? Birds? Water? Local politics?
	10:14am Jennique: Not very well, but yeah, falcons can swim.
	10:16am Brian in UK: Ofcourse Jane went on to act & bake yummy cakes. Well Paul, you know, met someone else. But on the Kings Road they looked so happy.
	10:16am patrick: good morning trouble. its always a good time for some wings!
	10:16am kwhitehead: Love the wheezy organ in this Wings song!
	10:20am Jennique: Tom in Gravesend Brooklyn - some swans did that very same thing to my dog, a Boston terrier. It was like the reaction you get when you put a cross in front of Dracula's face, lots of hissing and revulsion.
	10:21am herb: on that skool thread, i grew up in bklyn and went to SHEEPSHEAD BAY H.S. but now they're in trouble. i learned about it via <sheepsheadbites.com>; they've been writing about it for awhile. go to the site & scroll (the v.voice said this was 1 of the best nyc sites. yeah!)
	10:21am vanya: thank you for great music trouble! i DO enjoy! and luck with your elections in NJ. we in moscow also have some election-related problem
	10:21am Tom - In Gravesend Brooklyn: yep thought the Geese for sure would win out !!! go Figure ....
	10:22am Marmalade Kitty: morning/afternoon! palemaleirregulars.blogspot.com/2008/.../swimming-falcon-and-pale-male-and-lolas.html
	10:23am moose: checking in to say i've been having to be listening on archives
	10:26am Mike East: Roberta Flack comes in here sometimes. She seems like a pretty nice lady - especially for a diva (is she considered a diva?)
	10:27am dc pat: freakin space shuttle just flew over our building!
	10:27am Cecile: she is a singing diva, maybe not a diva-personality.
	10:27am Van in DC: Wow, that was awesome. The shuttle Discovery just took DC by storm. Thousands upon thousands on the national mall.
	10:28am triish: is devo the male equivalent to diva?
	10:28am trouble: wow vanya in moscow! yes you do have some election problems of your own, good luck with that!
	10:29am triish: ..I never made it past this Diva definition: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082269/
	10:30am Tom - In Gravesend Brooklyn: ... wouldn't that be Dino... haha...
	10:31am lane: it's so weird how pop music and rock and roll is this distillation from the black church. and as such is really just "preachin' the word" minus the mystic jew... AMEN Sister! I'm feelin' the love!
	10:31am trouble: whoa, there is just way too much fab convo on this playlist today: shuttles overhead, swimming fighting hawks, far away cities, i feel elated and exhausted just trying to absorb it all.
	10:34am dc pat: mahalia's silent night is in the Xmas time playlist rotation nowadays...
	10:35am lane: amen...
	10:36am Jennique: Van in DC: that is incredible! I am jealous you got to see the shuttle Discovery fly overhead! I thought seeing the Blue Angels was cool, but that wins, hands down.
	10:38am Van in DC: Not just me for sure lol. I've not seen that many people on the national mall in a very long time...I think the locals outnumbered the tourists for once :) That was very special and moving though. For me anyway.
	10:41am asjon: saw Shabazz Palaces this weekend, they were really good live
	10:42am northguineahills: Working on a very whacked sleeping schedule. Woke up during Julies's set, went back to sleep around 5ish, and now woke up in the middle of Trouble's.
	10:50am Van in DC: Live - Final Discovery landing http://www.nasa.gov/externalflash/discovery/index.html
	10:50am Junior Barnes: I'm gonna get you Cos, you gunky.
	10:53am dc pat: grew up listening to Cos records. Chicken heart is great.
	10:54am G: Today's news says a shuttle will overfly NYC in the same way this coming Monday, before it is landed at JFK and driven to the Intrepid museum on the west side of midtown Manhattan...
	10:55am Mike East: big fan of Chicken Heart, dc pat. I incorporated it into some experimental 4 track recording I was doing about 10 years ago...though it was processed to be almost unrecognizable.
	10:56am Brian in UK: Meghan played 'Revenge' last week in her themed programme. He was never that popular over here, personally cannot get enough of him. Loved the name of his record label Tetragrammaton.
	10:56am Van in DC: You can track all of the Shuttle activities very nicely right about... here... :) http://www.collectspace.com/shuttles/
	10:57am Cecile: even a lot of his 80s stuff is funny. I still crack up at his whole bit about being drunk "I LOVE YOU TOILET BOWL!"
	10:58am Brian in UK: trouble I take issue; Cosby is monologues not standups. He does not tell jokes as such.
	10:58am David: I was on the fence about seeing Shabazz Palaces tonight in Bmore, but now I'm on it. Thanks for the extra push!
	10:59am Cecile: Brian, over here stand-up is pretty much any comedian standing in front on an audience. It's just a catch-all.
	10:59am Brian in UK: David, I did not go when they came to London not so long ago. Still regretting it. Do it.
	11:00am Cecile: you could just teach art in general. Go to the vet's admin and sit down with some folks and paint.
	11:01am Brian in UK: Thanks Cecile, there are so many over here trying to be funny it is desparate.
	11:02am Ken From Hyde Park: Wow....that's a lot of folks taking their own lives. Lots of family members affected, of course. Truly sad.
	11:02am Marmalade kitty: horrible, but It makes sense.. in a crazy harsh real way :(
	11:03am Cecile: I have to say, Brian, please take no offense, that I find British comic actors and presenters way funnier than much of the stand-up I've seen over here (and I get most of the jokes, being an Anglophile and whatnot). I think Top Gear is one of the funniest shows of all time.
	11:03am dc pat: what was the statistic again? I missed it.
	11:03am allan: 18 vet suicides a day. folks in the military get frequent "anti-suicide" checkups. what would you do after multiple tours upon coming home and finding out no one really cares?
	11:03am I X Key!: irresponsible! truly irresponsible op us!
	11:03am moose reading comments: the shuttle in ny will go by boat up the hudson
	11:04am lane: "The Modern World with Trouble"... indeed.
	11:04am Cecile: Trouble, what's even harder to deal with is that many of the vet resources that were there for Vietnam are gone.
	11:06am trouble: dc pat: for every one death overseas 25 returning veterans take their own lives here.
	11:07am Cecile: I think people are more conscious of what veterans go through. But it's the whole gap beween knowing about it, and doing something about it.
	11:08am triish: Maybe the chain of command form of mgt was more prevalent in society years ago, making for an easier transition to and fro? Unquestioned authority?
	11:08am dc pat: thanks trouble. terrible.
	11:08am northguineahills: @dc pat, I was watching the footage of Discovery, did it land in Andrews AFB?
	11:08am Kayt: bom dia trouble! gosto da musica-- nao exishte molieado iguao au prantu, lula cortese zey ramalieu
	11:09am stu: You preach Girl ! ( mighty woman ) We all need to do more keep our counrty out of wars that are not about defending the counrty( which pretty much means everything after WWII)...which leaves vets feeling like the killing they participate in is more criminal than patriotic. Then Cecile's idea of support for vets any way we can is IT. and all I was gonna say was "great show !" huh!
	11:09am dc pat: ngh: I dunno, I was just sitting here and it flew over (Arlington). I didn't know it was happening.
	11:09am Van in DC: Discovery landed at Dulles. The Smithsonian Air & Space museum there will be her new home.
	11:12am northguineahills: ahhh, I just thought it would be inconvenient to clear up a whole runway for awhile at a busy commercial airport.
	11:12am northguineahills: I see the commercial craft now....
	11:13am dc pat: the problem is, we have lost any common sense. Right-wingers define when/how we go to war, and then convince the country that it's socialism to take care of the vets when they come home. Hopeless.
	11:14am Van in DC: I believe it was runway "1A Right" :)
	11:14am Jennique: Thanks for the news about the shuttle Enterprise coming to NYC next week. I knew that the Intrepid was going to host a shuttle but now I know all the particulars. Trouble, if you find a way to volunteer your art services for veterans, please keep me in the loop as it sounds like something I would be interested in as well.
	11:14am Aaron in Jcity: its a sports website but the names is good http://cosbysweaters.com/
	11:16am ?: more cowbell
	11:18am trouble: jennique! you know a certain young man who is going to be excited about the enterprise heading to one of his favorite museums...dulles airport arm of the air and space museum is truly incredible for those who have not visited.
	11:20am trouble: has everybody seen henri the cat faux french nouvelle vague superstar of youtube? SO FAB. i put up a link on the facebook page for the show.www.facebook.com...
	11:22am Van in DC: Indeed about the Air & Space museum! I was honored to have seen the Enterprise ALSO fly piggyback into Scott AFB for an air show in 84 I think it was. We got to go aboard her. What a thrill that was.
	11:29am lane: hey Van, I saw that same shuttle tour! at Hill AFB. funny. Reposted the link to the show on FB... u know, my evangelical tendencies. I really gotta get more Paul Weller... I-Tunes!
	11:30am David: I started listening to your show when I tuned in randomly one day and heard you play Georgia. Love her! I saw in her in Bmore recently and she's just truth, such a pure musical soul (and her beats ain't bad either)
	11:34am trouble: david, she does put out a gorgeous vibe on stage!
	11:34am Van in DC: Awesome lane :)
	11:34am pierre: Bonjour Trouble! Bonjour listeners!
	11:36am trouble: hey pierre! hey to stu too!
	11:37am lane: it was quite a sight wasn't it van, piggy backed on that 747... The Modern World INDEED!
	11:39am Van in DC: Amazing sight. Back then and today :)
	11:43am Cheri Pi: I had the pleasure of posting that cat video on Pierre's fb page-sorry mon ami!
	11:46am Kayt: quasi la trouble! sorry, i should have included spaces
	11:47am Cecile: "Pay attention to the cat. They never do."
	11:47am mg: Aww. France Gall. Thanks, Trouble.
	11:49am pierre: @CheriPi: merci beaucoup i couldnt watch it yet, im keeping it for later :)
	11:53am trouble: kayt, thanks for your undying support even though it's apparent it appears I don't have the innate gene to learn portugese.
	11:58am trouble: toottles friends! merci and sunshiney week to all
