Listener comments!
	👻 9:02am 12539: Hey, I remember this show. Once upon a time you used to be on late Saturday night, right?

	9:04am Joe McG: @12539: Just a rumor!
	9:04am Amanda: I love it. LOVE it! Good morning, Joe!
	9:04am Holly in NC: Just wanted to say hey, Joe! Just got back from walking dogs and now have to run, will catch up via archive :-) Happy Thursday!
	9:05am KevinfromBayRidge: We'll have to put drunken listenin on hold ,mostly ( in this timezone)
	👻 9:05am Brian in UK: Hello Joe, everything you know is wrong.
	9:06am Joe McG: Hey, everybody! Wow, this is mighty early for me. I'll need some time to settle in. Hey, Amanda! Holly, so nice to see you so early!
	9:06am Doug S.: Go Joe go!
	9:06am DCE: maiden voyage. reporting for duty.
	9:06am Cheri Pi: Welcome Joe- what an uplifter!!!
	9:06am duke: Chicago wishes Astrud could have sung for them.
	9:07am G: At least I don't get called away to have sex during this time slot :p Back to work and listening for me...
	9:08am PKNY: Man, this is a great version of "Beginnings", two thumbs up!
	9:09am duke: @G are you saying that you left off listening to WFMU for sex?
	9:10am fleep: Wow it's early. 6:09 am. Good morning, Joe, it's Only The Beginning.
	👻 9:10am Brian in UK: Alan McGee is starting a new record label. www.independent.co.uk... What is his connection to Rev-Ola?
	9:10am G: it can happen dude :p
	9:10am KevinfromBayRidge: @G, I like that better than the drunk listening thing!
	9:13am G: I'm just gonna hazard a guess that midnight to three AM Saturday night is not an uncommon time for that. Small discs with big holes has probably furnished a soundtrack for that for people, yeah.
	👻 9:14am Ken From Hyde Park: Thursday, June 13, 2013 - Joe McGasko sees the sun for the first time in ??? years. Don't look directly into the sun; it's not good for your eyes.
	9:15am G: We have just determined that he is not a vampire.
	9:16am duke: If Jersey City is anything like upstate NY. He isn't likely to see the sun today.
	9:16am Joe McG: I am not a vampire! Still a monster, though.
	9:18am A Phlebotomist Writes: @G Choose your words carefully.
	9:19am Rob Weisberg: Good morning Joe! Bright-eyed, bushy-tailed... I'll miss seeing you on Saturdays but great to start the home stretch of the work week with you...
	9:21am Dr. Goot: Lovin' the covers!
	9:21am Joe McG: Thanks, Rob, much appreciated! Hey, Doug! Hey duke, G, and all of the phlebotomists.
	👻 9:21am 12539: Will Single File begin promptly around 10:36 or so?
	9:23am Joe McG: @12539: Ha! You got me pegged. I'll try to tighten it up for the daytime.
	9:24am PKNY: I love Millie and Isaac, but I figured they'd take that track to a much dirtier place, considering the subject matter. I guess Isaac was holding Millie back.
	9:25am HEAT: lolll "Oh lord" -Joe
	9:26am DCE: got my tie on
	9:26am buısןǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ: you've rejoined the Land of the Living
	9:26am HEAT: I am in business casual attire
	9:26am common: no tie. just a helmet.
	9:27am fleep: I'm cloaked in mystery.
	9:28am Ralphine: Are you going to play "Tighten Up," by Archie Bell and the Drells of Houston, Texas? I hear they don't only sing, but they dance just as good as they walk.
	9:28am Dave B: Hey Joe!
	9:30am Joe McG: @Ralphine: Anything can happen. And probably will. Hey, Dave B!
	9:31am David Cameron: I will have to turn off the radio now. Not allowed to listen to The Smiths. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/10102406/David-Cameron-hunts-for-new-band-after-being-banned-from-listening-to-The-Smiths.html
	9:31am r i s k y: Glad to hear you this morning Joe! Don't Stop-A-Rockin!
	9:32am Faye: HEYYYY JOE MUCKASKOOOOO NICE JUNE BRIDES TUNE!!!!!
	9:33am Cheri Pi: Bizness casualty, as usual.
	9:33am Joe McG: This set is all for you, Faye!
	9:34am Ralphine: What about us?
	👻 9:34am 12539: Hey Faye, where's our gif?
	9:34am Cheri Pi: Hi Faye! I miss you but I love Joe's baby-Faye set.
	9:34am Mike Sin: I'm in my tie and will try to listen live without jeopardizing my livelihood. Good luck in the new time slot , Joe.
	9:34am G: someone must have done a parody at some point of "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting" with the f-verb changed...
	9:35am Faye: ahhh yess!!! I'm beaming! a light appears in a dark week. @12539 new gif Saturday night ;) HI CHERI!
	9:35am HEAT: hi faye!!!
	9:37am Faye: hallow HEAT!! glad you're all getting along with your new Thursday morning master! he's the best guy!
	9:37am fleep: Dolphin song? Eeeexcellent.

	9:38am rob gee (Vietnam): ah! 14 Iced Bears! one of my all time fave bands : ) thanks
	9:39am Chop Scott: Good Morning Joe!!
	9:40am Joe McG: Hey, Fred! Archives aren't for everyone. Rob from Vietnam! How cool! Chop Scott, my friend! So good to see you in the daytime!
	9:44am HEAT: Joe it sounds awesome so far!!!
	9:44am Joe McG: Look out, Dave Cameron, it's on its way...
	9:44am Cecile: hiya!
	9:45am Cheri Pi: Cecile! howdya feel?
	👻 9:45am 12539: Odds are, a Little Darla selection would be playing at this time even in the old days.
	9:46am pat.dc: long time listener, first time commenter.....or something.
	9:46am Faye: hahahahaha nice choice nice choice I know all the words
	9:47am Cecile: better than yesterday. I'm at about...45% thanks to the healing power of Run Tell That BBQ takeaway. I'm not into any Little Darlas that made records after 1965.
	9:47am Joe McG: @Faye: :)
	9:49am Meghan.: This is one of my favorite Smiths songs..... Yay!
	9:50am Joe McG: Ladies and gentlemen, please don't miss Meghan's fine program every Thursday morning!
	9:52am Cecile: I have a question. Is anyone else experiencing cognitive dissonance seeing Carrie Brownstein in a AMEX commercial?
	👻 9:53am tim from champaign: Great show, Joe! Very nice Thursday morning coming down jams.
	9:54am DCE: I haven't seen that yet, Cecile, but I saw some of my friends disillusioned comments on FB
	9:54am Joe McG: @tim: Thanks, Tim. Easing in. The musique concrete comes later.
	9:56am David Cameron: Thanks for the warning, Joe. It's David by the way.
	👻 9:56am tim from champaign: Cecile - I did a triple take when I saw Carrie Brownstein ad. Hmmmm. Do you think she directed it?
	9:56am Ralphine: Not as much cognitive dissonance as hearing Henry Rollins do an Infiniti car commercial.
	👻 9:57am Brian in UK: Secret Affair?
	9:57am pat from the district of columbia: "cognitive dissonance?" You mean nausea? I haven't seen it either and hope I don't.
	9:58am pat from the district of columbia: Actually Rollins has said many times he'll do just about anything for dough.
	9:58am Joe McG: @DC: Erp, sorry David. Morning eyes. Many sleepers still lodged therein.
	9:58am Cecile: I'm pretty annoyed at that as well. It's like OK SO I TRIED TO TREAD MY OWN PATH AND NOT BE A CREEP_ASS SELLOUT and what do I get for it? NOTHING. AND THAT WAS THE POINT. YOU TRIED NOT TO BE A CREEP-ASS SELLOUT because it was the RIGHT THING TO DO. NOT BECAUSE YOU GOT ENDORSEMENTS.
	9:58am egal: Iggy Pop selling Chryslers.
	9:59am amEdeo: Oh my goodness!!! What-- How-- Joe-- JOE MCGASKO!!
	10:00am HEAT: @Cecile I haven't seen the commercial yet either but I think it would be a weird experience. I'm going to just have to avoid seeing it
	10:00am pat from the district of columbia: Eh, I just don't expect anything else from Iggy. Rollins is a complete enigma. I remember when everyone got pissed at Watt for allowing a minutemen tune to be in a car commercial. He said all the dough went to help pay for an operation for d boon's mom. So...
	10:00am Cecile: Rollins never tried to pass himself off as idealistic. I think partly it's because it helps Detroit (that's why Seger licensed Like A Rock), and partly because at this point Ig might as well be Robert Plant - he's living in a different stratosphere than us.
	👻 10:01am Brian in UK: Plough your own furrow. What did pop stars ever teach us? For that is all they are. Look at me Ma.
	10:02am pat from the district of columbia: Now if I saw Tom Waits selling a car--THAT I would have a big problem with.
	10:02am pat from the district of columbia: ..unless it was a used Pontiac...
	10:02am Cecile: He could be selling a car in his front yard with a hand made sign. That would be OK.
	10:03am Cecile: hahahahaha, pat.
	10:03am egal: @Brian in UK I thought life would be Swedish magazines
	10:03am KP: First Faye leaves us and now it's raining again.
	10:03am pat from the district of columbia: EXACTLY Cecile...
	10:04am braveness23: I <3 Morrissey for pretty much all the reasons people hate him
	10:04am Cecile: Morrissey can be pretty hysterically funny.
	10:04am KP: Delugional.
	👻 10:05am tim from champaign: I was shocked when I heard the Dirtbombs' "Can't Stop Thinking About It" for a Chrysler ad. I think what was weirdest was that a janky, out of tune song was used to sell something of that stature. I hope Mick and co got paid well.
	10:05am braveness23: I have to assume that he knows how pathetic he sounds and really pushes it to the limits. Otherwise he really is pathetic.
	👻 10:05am Brian in UK: To hate someone first you have to acknowledge their existence.
	10:06am Cecile: I do too. Probably some of their friends and fam got to go back to work too.
	👻 10:08am tim from champaign: Has Carrie Brownstein said anything about shilling for Amex yet?
	10:08am Joe McG: @Cecile: I love Morrissey. I agree that he's truly hilarious.
	👻 10:08am Brian in UK: Think some of these names might FALL on barren ground.
	10:08am pat from the district of columbia: Yeah, for some reason Dirtbombs doing car commercials doesn't bother me at all. They could definitely use a few extra bucks to finance the next album for one thing.
	10:09am pat from the district of columbia: I just don't care about Morrissey one way or the other...He seems nice..
	10:09am pat from the district of columbia: JEEZus, I'm talky today.
	10:09am nickybones: Something so unseemly about that Carrie Brownstein ad.
	10:09am Cecile: I haven't looked it up. Joe, it's especially apparent when someone else covers his song. Erlend Oye does some great ones.
	10:11am Cecile: Between you, me and the tree, Milllie Jackson speaks way more to me about kicking against the pricks than anything Sleater-Kinney ever did. And Barbara Manning wrote more memorable melodies in her sleep.
	10:11am pat from the district of columbia: FYI, this song sounds like crap on 32k mp3. Out of phase or something
	10:11am Cecile: I am very crabby. I must be getting better.
	10:11am Joe McG: @Cecile: I LOVE the Kings of Convenience.
	👻 10:12am tim from champaign: re: the Dirtbombs. Yeah, it didn't bother me a bit. I was just really surprised.
	10:12am DCE: how long does this tune go for? does he name everybody who ever lived?
	10:12am Cecile: I have learned to love them a lot. And Erlend is a great club DJ from what I've heard, I'm told he breaks into song frequently.
	10:12am Joe McG: @pat: Sorry about that, Pat. I just did something. Did that help?
	10:13am pat from the district of columbia: the vocals are just an inaudible buzz....hmm, nope it's the same
	10:13am KP: Morning, Joe. I put my face on for you.
	10:13am pat from the district of columbia: I checked 128k and it sounds fine...weird.
	10:13am Karen in Sleepy Hollow: Yea! Work Thursday with Joe! I can still hear you over the thunder, for now. Raining buckets up here.
	10:13am Cecile: ha, joe, you played Millie. awesome.
	10:14am KP: Inaudible buzz is Joe's style.
	10:14am Joe McG: @pat: Hmm, puzzled! Well, fortunately, it only has 19 minutes to go. Just kidding! Two more minutes. of Bieberosity.
	10:14am pat from the district of columbia: jeeze can't even hear the piano on 32k. Not complaining just thought you should know.
	10:14am Cecile: it was blowing and raining horizontally in Mpls yesterday. Horrible.
	10:14am KP: Inaudible buzz is Joe's style.
	10:14am Joe McG: @KP: That face is looking fine, sir. @Karen: Karen! How you?
	👻 10:14am tim from champaign: I marginally liked Sleater Kinney but I love Wild Flag. Mary Timony and Janet Weiss kick super ass. I really want to hear their cover of See No Evil.
	👻 10:15am Brian in UK: Shame you are playing the shortened version today, Joe!!
	10:16am Andrew Waterloo: Whenever I hear something like that in a commercial, TV show, or movie, I just think it means someone cool managed to slip something into the process. I tend to worry more that a favourite song of mine is suddenly associated with a flavour of the week TV show.
	10:16am Ralphine: Apparently Rollins will do anything for dough. www.flickr.com...
	10:16am amEdeo: Ahahaha.
	10:17am pat from the district of columbia: ah, the Fall sounds perfect on 32k. Wow, haven't got around to listening to this album yet!
	10:17am Cecile: hahahaha Ralphine
	👻 10:17am Brian in UK: 'He'll do anything for 50 bucks' Frank Zappa.
	10:17am Cecile: Oh, Mark E Smith. You and your Boniva addled mind.
	10:17am Ralphine: That house has since sold.
	10:18am Cecile: SELLOUT
	10:19am pat from the district of columbia: Mark E gettin back to his roots..
	10:20am KP: The Fall weather report calls for rain and wind with dangerous gust-ahs,
	👻 10:20am tim from champaign: I looked for the Motorbooty Henry Rollins chicken hawk Calvin Klein spoof ad but couldn't find it.
	10:20am PKNY: Not many people could take on a Betty Davis song convincingly, but Iggy is one of them.
	10:21am Joe McG: This is just an excuse to play more Betty Davis!
	10:21am SeanG: rrrrrrrradio
	10:22am pat from the district of columbia: say did anyone see when Rollins was guest VJ on MTV about a million years ago? Funny as hell. He made fun of every video he had to play.
	10:22am Karen in Sleepy Hollow: Still awaiting your visit to our fine village. Just don't come in July cuz I'll be on crutches for much of it. Your show is going swimmingly!
	10:23am Andrew Waterloo: I liked Henry Rollins until I released that he doesn't have an off switch.
	10:23am PKNY: @Joe - oh hell yes!
	10:24am pat from the district of columbia: I think you nailed it Andrew.
	10:25am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Yo Joe! Soundin' good.
	10:28am PKNY: Aww man, I haven't heard this Gil track in waaaaaay too long! Nothing but sure shots today, Joe!
	10:28am Ralphine: I think my cognitive dissonance was more surprise that Infiniti would pick Rollins to do voiceovers than that Rollins would do them.
	10:29am pat from the district of columbia: Right Ralphine, which is I think why he does that kind of shit...outside of anything for a buck.
	10:30am andymorphic: thats what makes him so enduring
	10:31am KP: Having seen the movie i think he's right.
	10:31am Ralphine: I thought it was steroids.
	10:31am Andrew Waterloo: Hank fancies himself a public intellectual, it's only natural that he'd want to be any voice of authority.
	10:32am pat from the district of columbia: well he kind of is a public intellectual. He's pretty with it despite what you might think of him.
	10:34am duke: I have never heard Rex play the Fall. Is there some sort of fine if a DJ doesn't play the fall?
	10:35am fleep: And away we go!
	👻 10:36am 12539: 10:35, a minute early!
	10:36am Joe McG: @duke: What do you mean? He plays at least one per week, just like John Peel. ;)
	10:37am buısןǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ: wow wow cool toon just enough disco to tweak the tastebuds
	10:37am Joe McG: @fleep: Ah, the change of the avatar! @12539: So much for tightening....
	10:37am Matt from Springfield: All right Joe! Still can't listen in from this computer, but wanted to show support for SINGLE FILE! In the A.M.!!
	👻 10:37am Brian in UK: @12539 Harsh if true.
	10:38am Matt from Springfield: First daytime edition...yow!! Glad fleep has made it, with avatar switch! :)
	10:38am Joe McG: Nice to see you as always, Matt!
	👻 10:39am Brian in UK: Pull the blinds down and use your imagination.
	👻 10:40am 12539: I love the lateness of Single File. I just fear it's followed by the Kevin Ayers loop. Pavlovian conditioning at 2 am may send me to sleep.
	10:40am Parq: Just getting on the puter, Joe, but caught much of the first hour. Opening set was beautiful. Bon voyage in your new slot.
	10:40am Ralphine: Good one, Duke.
	10:41am nickybones: Nice! Dave Dee, et al.
	10:42am Andrew Waterloo: Rollins is with it, but he doesn't add much to the conversation either.
	10:42am Matt from Springfield: Glad to see you, as always! :) Also glad to see the morning edition looks the same as the midnight show: Millie! with Isaac!, Gil Scott-Heron, The Chesterfields (weren't they a CD86 band?), that "Justin Bieber" song! And 14 Iced Bears, sounds like an interesting one...
	10:42am Joe McG: Many thanks, Parq! Glad to have you along.
	👻 10:43am tim from champaign: Single File...that's a great name for a show within a show.
	👻 10:43am Brian in UK: This band would have politically correct names these days.
	10:43am CTEmpress: Single File RULES! And I thought that was just thunder I was hearing! Welcome Joe!
	10:44am duke: great collection of singles
	10:45am Tome: great to be here now ,,,, JoeMcG in AM .. yea !!!
	10:45am Matt from Springfield: @CTEmpress: It's not just thunder, but lightning too! Single File brings the POWER, then makes some NOISE!
	10:45am Joe McG: Thanks, CTEmpress! Nice to have you along.. Hey, Tome!
	10:47am Cheri Pi: I love your singles segment JMcG.
	10:48am Joe McG: Thanks, Cheri! It's so much fun, every "single" week!
	10:48am KP: Matt! You are the stormbringer
	10:48am HEAT: So glad to know that there is a band called The Hot Dogs
	10:49am KP: Hot Dogs cut the mustard.
	10:49am Greg from Bloomfield: First time catching your show, Joe– so far, so awesome!
	10:50am efd: It's weird to be listening to your show when I'm not in a car in the dark.
	10:51am Cecile: bobby
	10:52am Joe McG: @efd: Ha! It's weird since I usually do this thing alone in a dark studio in the middle of the night.
	10:52am Matt from Springfield: @KP: I prefer "stormmonger". I can bring to you a wide variety of storms, in any color you like!
	10:53am Matt from Springfield: Bobby Womack, 'nother Surface Noise legend!
	10:53am DCE: I gotta have it too!
	10:53am amEdeo: Can't wait for you to break out the Youth Brigade and/or Dead Kennedys 7"s, Joe!!
	10:54am CTEmpress: Bobby WOMACK ooohh yeah!Rode a plane back from the UK with his band: the days when you could smoke and drink on planes!
	10:56am Joe McG: @Matt: I do go to the Bobby well pretty frequently. @amEdeo: Hardcore right around the corner, definitely. At noon.
	10:56am duke: Julie London, wow. I could listen to her all day.
	10:57am Glenn m: good morning Joe!
	10:57am duke: I wonder if these guys get requests for Louie Louie
	10:58am common: hell yea, john foxx!
	10:59am Joe McG: Wow, this is a particularly random assortment this week, guys. Hope no one gets whiplash.
	10:59am G: NP, Joe, the station's format is whiplash. used to it by now :p
	11:00am CTEmpress: John Foxx yes! Thanks!
	11:00am DCE: yeah, if you're listening to WFMU and NOT getting whiplash, something's not right
	11:02am joe: 'ello folks
	11:02am Matt from Springfield: @Joe: And, with a vast daytime audience tuning in, proudly introduce them to the SF format with the randomest 45s you can find.
	11:03am joe: I think this is the first time I've been able to listen to Joe live since the marathon.
	11:04am KP: Heat, can the Hamburgers be far behind?
	11:04am HEAT: I like the single file
	11:04am HEAT: The Hamburglers
	11:05am HEAT: The Sauerkraut
	11:05am KP: Now that i think is already a group.
	11:06am G: The Random Condiments
	11:07am HEAT: The Buns
	11:07am Matt from Springfield: The Sour Krauts punk band, opening for the Hot Gods...
	11:07am KP: Cecilia un de Sauerkrauts.
	11:08am Mike VL: Great to hear you in the AM, Joe!
	11:09am Matt from Springfield: @KP: An Alsatian romance film, "Amour de les Sauerkrauts".
	11:09am Dave B: heh - new tag line - "JMc in the AMc"
	11:09am frenchee: JOE FRANK! I missed it, I'll listen to the archives. Is that SProg like frog or Sprague like plague?
	11:10am KP: Heat are you saying condiment bands is a concept you relish?
	11:10am frenchee: LOL, JMc in the AMc, love it
	11:11am G: aint enough mustard in the world to cover that hot dog
	11:11am KP: Cecilia's version of Midnight to Six was huge hit on FMu. or as much a hit as one can have here.
	11:12am KP: Frenchee, isnt a little early for you.
	11:12am Joe McG: Hey, frenchee! JM in the AM, x2! Yikes!
	11:12am Matt from Springfield: Ante McGasko! :D
	11:13am DCE: gawd, keep the Rodion GA coming, it's the best!
	11:13am HEAT: There needs to be a festival featuring only bands with food names and an ongoing buffet. Everyone must be dressed in hot dog costumes
	👻 11:14am Liz Berg: Yay for Rodion G.A. and yay for daytime Joe McG!
	11:14am KP: Joe, Ken is going to have to come get you on his waterproof bicycle.
	11:14am Matt from Springfield: @KP: A "WFMU frequently played" is the top of our pops. Like Doug Hream Blunt's "Gentle Persuasion"--I think it was Therese who just played that again, two years after it was topping our internal charts here.
	11:15am andymorphic: cut and paste and i am looking at the order page....10$ for shipping to canada....but do want
	11:16am Ike: HEAT, I bet someone is already working on that. Dig the Rodion G.A.!
	11:16am Joe McG: Liz Berg, you are the bestest and you know it!
	11:17am Matt from Springfield: During Sandy's runup last year, we had discussed with Scott W the necessity of connecting WFMU DJs homes to the studio with zip lines -- so you can get in and out of the station regardless of what's going on on the ground.
	11:17am HEAT: @Ike I can't wait!
	11:19am KP: Andy, is too late to get in on your order.
	11:21am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Diggin' this robotic song. Do robots punch a time clock?
	11:21am andymorphic: no. 17 pounds plus shipping for double vinyl
	11:22am andymorphic: are you in toronto?
	11:24am northguineahills: I enjoy how Joe keeps one of the most meticulous playlists.
	11:26am Joe McG: Why, thanks you, ngh, I like to dot my "i"s.
	11:28am KP: Double vinyl of what?
	11:28am Listener Alexandra: Great show!
	11:29am Mike East: welcome to Thursday, Joe McG
	11:29am Ike: Jennique, is the first letter of your name supposed to be a garbled box of untranslatable-ness? Maybe I just don't have the right fonts installed. I can see the "ennique" though.
	11:30am KP: Did i miss Boring Instrumental?
	11:30am Joe McG: Thanks, Mike. Thanks, Alexandra! Nice to be here with my galoshes on.
	11:31am KP: Sun's almost out now.
	11:32am Matt from Springfield: @Joe: With all the news coming from Turkey lately, I'm reminded of that annoying Turkish "i" that isn't dotted (ı)--makes letters harder to distinguish!
	11:32am andymorphic: kp@ sorry i thought you wanted get in on a rodion order?
	11:35am KP: Thanks, andymorphic. could not figure it out. Will look into it.
	11:35am Matt from Springfield: Have to go now, nice to see that Surface Noise is a runaway hit in the morning! Have a good afternoon, Joe and everyone!
	11:35am Lonely Planet Boy: I was checking out the playlist. Wish I could listen. Kinda hard to do @ work. One of the hazards of being a librarian; all that quiet.
	11:36am CTEmpress: What a positively wonderful electronica set to type to: we really ARE DEVO!
	11:36am PKNY: This Deutsche Elektronische Musik 2 comp is a winner across the board.
	11:36am Joe McG: @Matt: Really appreciate you stopping by to say hi, Matt!
	11:38am andymorphic: i wish i had seen that micheal rother doing neu this a few years back
	11:39am Jeff: Welcome to the morning, Gentleman Joe!
	11:40am Joe McG: Thanks, Jeff! I'm wearing my Thursday Go to Meeting tie! @Glenn: Hey, Glenn m(issed you there).
	11:43am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: @Ike, yeah I got all fancy pants and found a goofy font that made a J look like something swirly. I should just stick to regular letters, or go by Ennique (Iglesias).
	11:43am KevinfromBayRidge: Well... It seems that we have our second "Killer Joe" of the weekday schedule. So you and Belock will have to differentiate yourselves. Great show!
	11:44am northguineahills: Deutsche Elektronische Musik 1 is pretty kick ass as well, as w/ anything from Soul Jazz Recs.
	11:44am efd: Their cover of this song is just about the best thing the Goo Goo Dolls ever did.
	11:45am Joe McG: @Kevin: I'll NEVER be as kick-ass as Mr. Belock. I'm more like kick shin.
	👻 11:45am tim from champaign: I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought the Dinger/Japandorf jam sounded like the Prince jam.
	11:45am Mike East: Love this Prince track!
	11:45am Joe McG: @efd: Is it my imagination, or does the Japandorf song sound A LOT like this one?
	11:46am Mike East: (singing along)
	11:47am Ralphine: If you ever get a chance to see Prince live, do it.
	11:47am Joe McG: @tim: You were right on, Tim!
	11:47am northguineahills: It's quite a different experience listening to Joe awake and sober.
	11:47am joe: I have come to terms with the fact that there is no middle ground with Prince for me. Either I love a song or I can not stand it.
	11:47am andymorphic: this is just a killer set...welcome to thursday morning
	11:48am Joe McG: @Ralphine: Totally agree. Now THERE's a guy that kicks a little ass. Or a little guy who kicks a lot of ass.
	11:48am efd: @Joe I have to confess that I was distracted by work; I'll have to re-listen later. But tim thinks so, so that's good enough for me!
	11:48am Joe McG: Thanks, andymorphic. More fun in daylight than I would've thought possible!
	11:49am joe: @Ralphine I have not but everything I hear is to experience him live is a whole different experience.
	11:49am andymorphic: except the getting up part
	11:49am Lonely Planet Boy: Prince's two new songs he played on Jimmy Fallon were awesome!
	11:49am KP: joe i have to reluctantly agree with andymorphic.
	11:51am KevinfromBayRidge: @Jennique(11:43), Not a bad thing to graphically look like Jello.
	11:51am KP: That "boring instrumental' title reminds me a friend was once told by a hamptons bar owner to "leave the instrumentals in the garage."
	11:51am Joe McG: @LPB: Agree! When's that new album coming out already?
	11:52am Ralphine: joe@11:49 (eastern time): At the show I saw two tours ago, he did a solo acoustic guitar set in between his main sets that was out of this world.
	11:53am quinn: hi joe!
	👻 11:53am tim from champaign: Dwain Vinyard? I'm dubious of that name. I think it's an alias for Duane Harriot.
	11:54am northguineahills: ha, Tim.
	11:54am Joe McG: Hey Quinn!
	11:55am joe: @Ralphine I've heard of many casual fans converting to full blown obsession after seeing him play
	11:55am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: @Tim - it would not surprise me that Dwain and Duane were the same person.
	11:55am KP: Well Joe, you made my day. Now back to bed.
	11:55am Joe McG: Hey, I want to thank everyone for listening! You made it really easy for me to settle into this new blue-sky chair. Have a great week, and see you next Thursday!
	👻 11:56am 12539: Great show, Joe. Maybe I'll take a nap now for old time's sake.
	11:56am KP: OK!
	11:56am Lonely Planet Boy: I haven't seen a date for a new album.
	11:57am fleep: Based on the volume and variety of listener comments, the show ported to daylight perfectly. Thanks, Joe!
	11:58am Ralphine: There is a line in the book "The Human Stain" that captures how I felt EXACTLY: "That's Irving Berlin. I hear that and everything in me just sort of unclenches, and the wish not to die, never to die, becomes almost too great to bear.''
	11:58am northguineahills: Thanks, Joe!
	👻 11:58am James in ATL: Welcome to Thursday!

	9:05am KevinfromBayRidge: We'll have to put drunken listenin on hold ,mostly ( in this timezone)
	👻 9:05am Brian in UK: Hello Joe, everything you know is wrong.

	9:06am duke: Chicago wishes Astrud could have sung for them.
	9:07am G: At least I don't get called away to have sex during this time slot :p Back to work and listening for me...
	9:08am PKNY: Man, this is a great version of "Beginnings", two thumbs up!
	9:09am duke: @G are you saying that you left off listening to WFMU for sex?
	9:10am fleep: Wow it's early. 6:09 am. Good morning, Joe, it's Only The Beginning.
	👻 9:10am Brian in UK: Alan McGee is starting a new record label. www.independent.co.uk... What is his connection to Rev-Ola?
	9:10am G: it can happen dude :p
	9:10am KevinfromBayRidge: @G, I like that better than the drunk listening thing!
	9:13am G: I'm just gonna hazard a guess that midnight to three AM Saturday night is not an uncommon time for that. Small discs with big holes has probably furnished a soundtrack for that for people, yeah.
	👻 9:14am Ken From Hyde Park: Thursday, June 13, 2013 - Joe McGasko sees the sun for the first time in ??? years. Don't look directly into the sun; it's not good for your eyes.
	9:15am G: We have just determined that he is not a vampire.
	9:16am duke: If Jersey City is anything like upstate NY. He isn't likely to see the sun today.
	9:16am Joe McG: I am not a vampire! Still a monster, though.
	9:18am A Phlebotomist Writes: @G Choose your words carefully.
	9:19am Rob Weisberg: Good morning Joe! Bright-eyed, bushy-tailed... I'll miss seeing you on Saturdays but great to start the home stretch of the work week with you...

	9:21am Joe McG: Thanks, Rob, much appreciated! Hey, Doug! Hey duke, G, and all of the phlebotomists.
	👻 9:21am 12539: Will Single File begin promptly around 10:36 or so?
	9:23am Joe McG: @12539: Ha! You got me pegged. I'll try to tighten it up for the daytime.
	9:24am PKNY: I love Millie and Isaac, but I figured they'd take that track to a much dirtier place, considering the subject matter. I guess Isaac was holding Millie back.
	9:25am HEAT: lolll "Oh lord" -Joe
	9:26am DCE: got my tie on
	9:26am buısןǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ: you've rejoined the Land of the Living
	9:26am HEAT: I am in business casual attire
	9:26am common: no tie. just a helmet.
	9:27am fleep: I'm cloaked in mystery.
	9:28am Ralphine: Are you going to play "Tighten Up," by Archie Bell and the Drells of Houston, Texas? I hear they don't only sing, but they dance just as good as they walk.
	9:28am Dave B: Hey Joe!
	9:30am Joe McG: @Ralphine: Anything can happen. And probably will. Hey, Dave B!
	9:31am David Cameron: I will have to turn off the radio now. Not allowed to listen to The Smiths. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/music/10102406/David-Cameron-hunts-for-new-band-after-being-banned-from-listening-to-The-Smiths.html
	9:31am r i s k y: Glad to hear you this morning Joe! Don't Stop-A-Rockin!
	9:32am Faye: HEYYYY JOE MUCKASKOOOOO NICE JUNE BRIDES TUNE!!!!!
	9:33am Cheri Pi: Bizness casualty, as usual.
	9:33am Joe McG: This set is all for you, Faye!
	9:34am Ralphine: What about us?
	👻 9:34am 12539: Hey Faye, where's our gif?
	9:34am Cheri Pi: Hi Faye! I miss you but I love Joe's baby-Faye set.
	9:34am Mike Sin: I'm in my tie and will try to listen live without jeopardizing my livelihood. Good luck in the new time slot , Joe.
	9:34am G: someone must have done a parody at some point of "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting" with the f-verb changed...
	9:35am Faye: ahhh yess!!! I'm beaming! a light appears in a dark week. @12539 new gif Saturday night ;) HI CHERI!
	9:35am HEAT: hi faye!!!
	9:37am Faye: hallow HEAT!! glad you're all getting along with your new Thursday morning master! he's the best guy!
	9:37am fleep: Dolphin song? Eeeexcellent.
	9:38am fred: Good morning Joe, I'm glad I can finally listen to your show
	9:38am rob gee (Vietnam): ah! 14 Iced Bears! one of my all time fave bands : ) thanks
	9:39am Chop Scott: Good Morning Joe!!
	9:40am Joe McG: Hey, Fred! Archives aren't for everyone. Rob from Vietnam! How cool! Chop Scott, my friend! So good to see you in the daytime!
	9:44am HEAT: Joe it sounds awesome so far!!!
	9:44am Joe McG: Look out, Dave Cameron, it's on its way...
	9:44am Cecile: hiya!
	9:45am Cheri Pi: Cecile! howdya feel?
	👻 9:45am 12539: Odds are, a Little Darla selection would be playing at this time even in the old days.
	9:46am pat.dc: long time listener, first time commenter.....or something.
	9:46am Faye: hahahahaha nice choice nice choice I know all the words
	9:47am Cecile: better than yesterday. I'm at about...45% thanks to the healing power of Run Tell That BBQ takeaway. I'm not into any Little Darlas that made records after 1965.
	9:47am Joe McG: @Faye: :)
	9:49am Meghan.: This is one of my favorite Smiths songs..... Yay!
	9:50am Joe McG: Ladies and gentlemen, please don't miss Meghan's fine program every Thursday morning!
	9:52am Cecile: I have a question. Is anyone else experiencing cognitive dissonance seeing Carrie Brownstein in a AMEX commercial?
	👻 9:53am tim from champaign: Great show, Joe! Very nice Thursday morning coming down jams.
	9:54am DCE: I haven't seen that yet, Cecile, but I saw some of my friends disillusioned comments on FB
	9:54am Joe McG: @tim: Thanks, Tim. Easing in. The musique concrete comes later.
	9:56am David Cameron: Thanks for the warning, Joe. It's David by the way.
	👻 9:56am tim from champaign: Cecile - I did a triple take when I saw Carrie Brownstein ad. Hmmmm. Do you think she directed it?
	9:56am Ralphine: Not as much cognitive dissonance as hearing Henry Rollins do an Infiniti car commercial.
	👻 9:57am Brian in UK: Secret Affair?
	9:57am pat from the district of columbia: "cognitive dissonance?" You mean nausea? I haven't seen it either and hope I don't.
	9:58am pat from the district of columbia: Actually Rollins has said many times he'll do just about anything for dough.
	9:58am Joe McG: @DC: Erp, sorry David. Morning eyes. Many sleepers still lodged therein.
	9:58am Cecile: I'm pretty annoyed at that as well. It's like OK SO I TRIED TO TREAD MY OWN PATH AND NOT BE A CREEP_ASS SELLOUT and what do I get for it? NOTHING. AND THAT WAS THE POINT. YOU TRIED NOT TO BE A CREEP-ASS SELLOUT because it was the RIGHT THING TO DO. NOT BECAUSE YOU GOT ENDORSEMENTS.
	9:58am egal: Iggy Pop selling Chryslers.
	9:59am amEdeo: Oh my goodness!!! What-- How-- Joe-- JOE MCGASKO!!
	10:00am HEAT: @Cecile I haven't seen the commercial yet either but I think it would be a weird experience. I'm going to just have to avoid seeing it
	10:00am pat from the district of columbia: Eh, I just don't expect anything else from Iggy. Rollins is a complete enigma. I remember when everyone got pissed at Watt for allowing a minutemen tune to be in a car commercial. He said all the dough went to help pay for an operation for d boon's mom. So...
	10:00am Cecile: Rollins never tried to pass himself off as idealistic. I think partly it's because it helps Detroit (that's why Seger licensed Like A Rock), and partly because at this point Ig might as well be Robert Plant - he's living in a different stratosphere than us.
	👻 10:01am Brian in UK: Plough your own furrow. What did pop stars ever teach us? For that is all they are. Look at me Ma.
	10:02am pat from the district of columbia: Now if I saw Tom Waits selling a car--THAT I would have a big problem with.
	10:02am pat from the district of columbia: ..unless it was a used Pontiac...
	10:02am Cecile: He could be selling a car in his front yard with a hand made sign. That would be OK.
	10:03am Cecile: hahahahaha, pat.
	10:03am egal: @Brian in UK I thought life would be Swedish magazines
	10:03am KP: First Faye leaves us and now it's raining again.
	10:03am pat from the district of columbia: EXACTLY Cecile...
	10:04am braveness23: I <3 Morrissey for pretty much all the reasons people hate him
	10:04am Cecile: Morrissey can be pretty hysterically funny.
	10:04am KP: Delugional.
	👻 10:05am tim from champaign: I was shocked when I heard the Dirtbombs' "Can't Stop Thinking About It" for a Chrysler ad. I think what was weirdest was that a janky, out of tune song was used to sell something of that stature. I hope Mick and co got paid well.
	10:05am braveness23: I have to assume that he knows how pathetic he sounds and really pushes it to the limits. Otherwise he really is pathetic.
	👻 10:05am Brian in UK: To hate someone first you have to acknowledge their existence.
	10:06am Cecile: I do too. Probably some of their friends and fam got to go back to work too.
	👻 10:08am tim from champaign: Has Carrie Brownstein said anything about shilling for Amex yet?
	10:08am Joe McG: @Cecile: I love Morrissey. I agree that he's truly hilarious.
	👻 10:08am Brian in UK: Think some of these names might FALL on barren ground.
	10:08am pat from the district of columbia: Yeah, for some reason Dirtbombs doing car commercials doesn't bother me at all. They could definitely use a few extra bucks to finance the next album for one thing.
	10:09am pat from the district of columbia: I just don't care about Morrissey one way or the other...He seems nice..
	10:09am pat from the district of columbia: JEEZus, I'm talky today.
	10:09am nickybones: Something so unseemly about that Carrie Brownstein ad.
	10:09am Cecile: I haven't looked it up. Joe, it's especially apparent when someone else covers his song. Erlend Oye does some great ones.
	10:11am Cecile: Between you, me and the tree, Milllie Jackson speaks way more to me about kicking against the pricks than anything Sleater-Kinney ever did. And Barbara Manning wrote more memorable melodies in her sleep.
	10:11am pat from the district of columbia: FYI, this song sounds like crap on 32k mp3. Out of phase or something
	10:11am Cecile: I am very crabby. I must be getting better.
	10:11am Joe McG: @Cecile: I LOVE the Kings of Convenience.
	👻 10:12am tim from champaign: re: the Dirtbombs. Yeah, it didn't bother me a bit. I was just really surprised.
	10:12am DCE: how long does this tune go for? does he name everybody who ever lived?
	10:12am Cecile: I have learned to love them a lot. And Erlend is a great club DJ from what I've heard, I'm told he breaks into song frequently.
	10:12am Joe McG: @pat: Sorry about that, Pat. I just did something. Did that help?
	10:13am pat from the district of columbia: the vocals are just an inaudible buzz....hmm, nope it's the same
	10:13am KP: Morning, Joe. I put my face on for you.
	10:13am pat from the district of columbia: I checked 128k and it sounds fine...weird.
	10:13am Karen in Sleepy Hollow: Yea! Work Thursday with Joe! I can still hear you over the thunder, for now. Raining buckets up here.
	10:13am Cecile: ha, joe, you played Millie. awesome.
	10:14am KP: Inaudible buzz is Joe's style.
	10:14am Joe McG: @pat: Hmm, puzzled! Well, fortunately, it only has 19 minutes to go. Just kidding! Two more minutes. of Bieberosity.
	10:14am pat from the district of columbia: jeeze can't even hear the piano on 32k. Not complaining just thought you should know.
	10:14am Cecile: it was blowing and raining horizontally in Mpls yesterday. Horrible.
	10:14am KP: Inaudible buzz is Joe's style.
	10:14am Joe McG: @KP: That face is looking fine, sir. @Karen: Karen! How you?
	👻 10:14am tim from champaign: I marginally liked Sleater Kinney but I love Wild Flag. Mary Timony and Janet Weiss kick super ass. I really want to hear their cover of See No Evil.
	👻 10:15am Brian in UK: Shame you are playing the shortened version today, Joe!!
	10:16am Andrew Waterloo: Whenever I hear something like that in a commercial, TV show, or movie, I just think it means someone cool managed to slip something into the process. I tend to worry more that a favourite song of mine is suddenly associated with a flavour of the week TV show.
	10:16am Ralphine: Apparently Rollins will do anything for dough. www.flickr.com...
	10:16am amEdeo: Ahahaha.
	10:17am pat from the district of columbia: ah, the Fall sounds perfect on 32k. Wow, haven't got around to listening to this album yet!
	10:17am Cecile: hahahaha Ralphine
	👻 10:17am Brian in UK: 'He'll do anything for 50 bucks' Frank Zappa.
	10:17am Cecile: Oh, Mark E Smith. You and your Boniva addled mind.
	10:17am Ralphine: That house has since sold.
	10:18am Cecile: SELLOUT
	10:19am pat from the district of columbia: Mark E gettin back to his roots..
	10:20am KP: The Fall weather report calls for rain and wind with dangerous gust-ahs,
	👻 10:20am tim from champaign: I looked for the Motorbooty Henry Rollins chicken hawk Calvin Klein spoof ad but couldn't find it.
	10:20am PKNY: Not many people could take on a Betty Davis song convincingly, but Iggy is one of them.
	10:21am Joe McG: This is just an excuse to play more Betty Davis!
	10:21am SeanG: rrrrrrrradio
	10:22am pat from the district of columbia: say did anyone see when Rollins was guest VJ on MTV about a million years ago? Funny as hell. He made fun of every video he had to play.
	10:22am Karen in Sleepy Hollow: Still awaiting your visit to our fine village. Just don't come in July cuz I'll be on crutches for much of it. Your show is going swimmingly!
	10:23am Andrew Waterloo: I liked Henry Rollins until I released that he doesn't have an off switch.
	10:23am PKNY: @Joe - oh hell yes!
	10:24am pat from the district of columbia: I think you nailed it Andrew.
	10:25am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Yo Joe! Soundin' good.
	10:28am PKNY: Aww man, I haven't heard this Gil track in waaaaaay too long! Nothing but sure shots today, Joe!
	10:28am Ralphine: I think my cognitive dissonance was more surprise that Infiniti would pick Rollins to do voiceovers than that Rollins would do them.
	10:29am pat from the district of columbia: Right Ralphine, which is I think why he does that kind of shit...outside of anything for a buck.
	10:30am andymorphic: thats what makes him so enduring
	10:31am KP: Having seen the movie i think he's right.
	10:31am Ralphine: I thought it was steroids.
	10:31am Andrew Waterloo: Hank fancies himself a public intellectual, it's only natural that he'd want to be any voice of authority.
	10:32am pat from the district of columbia: well he kind of is a public intellectual. He's pretty with it despite what you might think of him.
	10:34am duke: I have never heard Rex play the Fall. Is there some sort of fine if a DJ doesn't play the fall?
	10:35am fleep: And away we go!
	👻 10:36am 12539: 10:35, a minute early!
	10:36am Joe McG: @duke: What do you mean? He plays at least one per week, just like John Peel. ;)
	10:37am buısןǝɥ uoʌ pǝɹɟ: wow wow cool toon just enough disco to tweak the tastebuds
	10:37am Joe McG: @fleep: Ah, the change of the avatar! @12539: So much for tightening....
	10:37am Matt from Springfield: All right Joe! Still can't listen in from this computer, but wanted to show support for SINGLE FILE! In the A.M.!!
	👻 10:37am Brian in UK: @12539 Harsh if true.
	10:38am Matt from Springfield: First daytime edition...yow!! Glad fleep has made it, with avatar switch! :)
	10:38am Joe McG: Nice to see you as always, Matt!
	👻 10:39am Brian in UK: Pull the blinds down and use your imagination.
	👻 10:40am 12539: I love the lateness of Single File. I just fear it's followed by the Kevin Ayers loop. Pavlovian conditioning at 2 am may send me to sleep.
	10:40am Parq: Just getting on the puter, Joe, but caught much of the first hour. Opening set was beautiful. Bon voyage in your new slot.
	10:40am Ralphine: Good one, Duke.
	10:41am nickybones: Nice! Dave Dee, et al.
	10:42am Andrew Waterloo: Rollins is with it, but he doesn't add much to the conversation either.
	10:42am Matt from Springfield: Glad to see you, as always! :) Also glad to see the morning edition looks the same as the midnight show: Millie! with Isaac!, Gil Scott-Heron, The Chesterfields (weren't they a CD86 band?), that "Justin Bieber" song! And 14 Iced Bears, sounds like an interesting one...
	10:42am Joe McG: Many thanks, Parq! Glad to have you along.
	👻 10:43am tim from champaign: Single File...that's a great name for a show within a show.
	👻 10:43am Brian in UK: This band would have politically correct names these days.
	10:43am CTEmpress: Single File RULES! And I thought that was just thunder I was hearing! Welcome Joe!
	10:44am duke: great collection of singles
	10:45am Tome: great to be here now ,,,, JoeMcG in AM .. yea !!!
	10:45am Matt from Springfield: @CTEmpress: It's not just thunder, but lightning too! Single File brings the POWER, then makes some NOISE!
	10:45am Joe McG: Thanks, CTEmpress! Nice to have you along.. Hey, Tome!
	10:47am Cheri Pi: I love your singles segment JMcG.
	10:48am Joe McG: Thanks, Cheri! It's so much fun, every "single" week!
	10:48am KP: Matt! You are the stormbringer
	10:48am HEAT: So glad to know that there is a band called The Hot Dogs
	10:49am KP: Hot Dogs cut the mustard.
	10:49am Greg from Bloomfield: First time catching your show, Joe– so far, so awesome!
	10:50am efd: It's weird to be listening to your show when I'm not in a car in the dark.
	10:51am Cecile: bobby
	10:52am Joe McG: @efd: Ha! It's weird since I usually do this thing alone in a dark studio in the middle of the night.
	10:52am Matt from Springfield: @KP: I prefer "stormmonger". I can bring to you a wide variety of storms, in any color you like!
	10:53am Matt from Springfield: Bobby Womack, 'nother Surface Noise legend!
	10:53am DCE: I gotta have it too!
	10:53am amEdeo: Can't wait for you to break out the Youth Brigade and/or Dead Kennedys 7"s, Joe!!
	10:54am CTEmpress: Bobby WOMACK ooohh yeah!Rode a plane back from the UK with his band: the days when you could smoke and drink on planes!
	10:56am Joe McG: @Matt: I do go to the Bobby well pretty frequently. @amEdeo: Hardcore right around the corner, definitely. At noon.
	10:56am duke: Julie London, wow. I could listen to her all day.
	10:57am Glenn m: good morning Joe!
	10:57am duke: I wonder if these guys get requests for Louie Louie
	10:58am common: hell yea, john foxx!
	10:59am Joe McG: Wow, this is a particularly random assortment this week, guys. Hope no one gets whiplash.
	10:59am G: NP, Joe, the station's format is whiplash. used to it by now :p
	11:00am CTEmpress: John Foxx yes! Thanks!
	11:00am DCE: yeah, if you're listening to WFMU and NOT getting whiplash, something's not right
	11:02am joe: 'ello folks
	11:02am Matt from Springfield: @Joe: And, with a vast daytime audience tuning in, proudly introduce them to the SF format with the randomest 45s you can find.
	11:03am joe: I think this is the first time I've been able to listen to Joe live since the marathon.
	11:04am KP: Heat, can the Hamburgers be far behind?
	11:04am HEAT: I like the single file
	11:04am HEAT: The Hamburglers
	11:05am HEAT: The Sauerkraut
	11:05am KP: Now that i think is already a group.
	11:06am G: The Random Condiments
	11:07am HEAT: The Buns
	11:07am Matt from Springfield: The Sour Krauts punk band, opening for the Hot Gods...
	11:07am KP: Cecilia un de Sauerkrauts.
	11:08am Mike VL: Great to hear you in the AM, Joe!
	11:09am Matt from Springfield: @KP: An Alsatian romance film, "Amour de les Sauerkrauts".
	11:09am Dave B: heh - new tag line - "JMc in the AMc"
	11:09am frenchee: JOE FRANK! I missed it, I'll listen to the archives. Is that SProg like frog or Sprague like plague?
	11:10am KP: Heat are you saying condiment bands is a concept you relish?
	11:10am frenchee: LOL, JMc in the AMc, love it
	11:11am G: aint enough mustard in the world to cover that hot dog
	11:11am KP: Cecilia's version of Midnight to Six was huge hit on FMu. or as much a hit as one can have here.
	11:12am KP: Frenchee, isnt a little early for you.
	11:12am Joe McG: Hey, frenchee! JM in the AM, x2! Yikes!
	11:12am Matt from Springfield: Ante McGasko! :D
	11:13am DCE: gawd, keep the Rodion GA coming, it's the best!
	11:13am HEAT: There needs to be a festival featuring only bands with food names and an ongoing buffet. Everyone must be dressed in hot dog costumes
	👻 11:14am Liz Berg: Yay for Rodion G.A. and yay for daytime Joe McG!
	11:14am KP: Joe, Ken is going to have to come get you on his waterproof bicycle.
	11:14am Matt from Springfield: @KP: A "WFMU frequently played" is the top of our pops. Like Doug Hream Blunt's "Gentle Persuasion"--I think it was Therese who just played that again, two years after it was topping our internal charts here.
	11:15am andymorphic: cut and paste and i am looking at the order page....10$ for shipping to canada....but do want
	11:16am Ike: HEAT, I bet someone is already working on that. Dig the Rodion G.A.!
	11:16am Joe McG: Liz Berg, you are the bestest and you know it!
	11:17am Matt from Springfield: During Sandy's runup last year, we had discussed with Scott W the necessity of connecting WFMU DJs homes to the studio with zip lines -- so you can get in and out of the station regardless of what's going on on the ground.
	11:17am HEAT: @Ike I can't wait!
	11:19am KP: Andy, is too late to get in on your order.
	11:21am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Diggin' this robotic song. Do robots punch a time clock?
	11:21am andymorphic: no. 17 pounds plus shipping for double vinyl
	11:22am andymorphic: are you in toronto?
	11:24am northguineahills: I enjoy how Joe keeps one of the most meticulous playlists.
	11:26am Joe McG: Why, thanks you, ngh, I like to dot my "i"s.
	11:28am KP: Double vinyl of what?
	11:28am Listener Alexandra: Great show!
	11:29am Mike East: welcome to Thursday, Joe McG
	11:29am Ike: Jennique, is the first letter of your name supposed to be a garbled box of untranslatable-ness? Maybe I just don't have the right fonts installed. I can see the "ennique" though.
	11:30am KP: Did i miss Boring Instrumental?
	11:30am Joe McG: Thanks, Mike. Thanks, Alexandra! Nice to be here with my galoshes on.
	11:31am KP: Sun's almost out now.
	11:32am Matt from Springfield: @Joe: With all the news coming from Turkey lately, I'm reminded of that annoying Turkish "i" that isn't dotted (ı)--makes letters harder to distinguish!
	11:32am andymorphic: kp@ sorry i thought you wanted get in on a rodion order?
	11:35am KP: Thanks, andymorphic. could not figure it out. Will look into it.
	11:35am Matt from Springfield: Have to go now, nice to see that Surface Noise is a runaway hit in the morning! Have a good afternoon, Joe and everyone!
	11:35am Lonely Planet Boy: I was checking out the playlist. Wish I could listen. Kinda hard to do @ work. One of the hazards of being a librarian; all that quiet.
	11:36am CTEmpress: What a positively wonderful electronica set to type to: we really ARE DEVO!
	11:36am PKNY: This Deutsche Elektronische Musik 2 comp is a winner across the board.
	11:36am Joe McG: @Matt: Really appreciate you stopping by to say hi, Matt!
	11:38am andymorphic: i wish i had seen that micheal rother doing neu this a few years back
	11:39am Jeff: Welcome to the morning, Gentleman Joe!
	11:40am Joe McG: Thanks, Jeff! I'm wearing my Thursday Go to Meeting tie! @Glenn: Hey, Glenn m(issed you there).
	11:43am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: @Ike, yeah I got all fancy pants and found a goofy font that made a J look like something swirly. I should just stick to regular letters, or go by Ennique (Iglesias).
	11:43am KevinfromBayRidge: Well... It seems that we have our second "Killer Joe" of the weekday schedule. So you and Belock will have to differentiate yourselves. Great show!
	11:44am northguineahills: Deutsche Elektronische Musik 1 is pretty kick ass as well, as w/ anything from Soul Jazz Recs.
	11:44am efd: Their cover of this song is just about the best thing the Goo Goo Dolls ever did.
	11:45am Joe McG: @Kevin: I'll NEVER be as kick-ass as Mr. Belock. I'm more like kick shin.
	👻 11:45am tim from champaign: I'm glad I wasn't the only one who thought the Dinger/Japandorf jam sounded like the Prince jam.
	11:45am Mike East: Love this Prince track!
	11:45am Joe McG: @efd: Is it my imagination, or does the Japandorf song sound A LOT like this one?
	11:46am Mike East: (singing along)
	11:47am Ralphine: If you ever get a chance to see Prince live, do it.
	11:47am Joe McG: @tim: You were right on, Tim!
	11:47am northguineahills: It's quite a different experience listening to Joe awake and sober.
	11:47am joe: I have come to terms with the fact that there is no middle ground with Prince for me. Either I love a song or I can not stand it.
	11:47am andymorphic: this is just a killer set...welcome to thursday morning
	11:48am Joe McG: @Ralphine: Totally agree. Now THERE's a guy that kicks a little ass. Or a little guy who kicks a lot of ass.
	11:48am efd: @Joe I have to confess that I was distracted by work; I'll have to re-listen later. But tim thinks so, so that's good enough for me!
	11:48am Joe McG: Thanks, andymorphic. More fun in daylight than I would've thought possible!
	11:49am joe: @Ralphine I have not but everything I hear is to experience him live is a whole different experience.
	11:49am andymorphic: except the getting up part
	11:49am Lonely Planet Boy: Prince's two new songs he played on Jimmy Fallon were awesome!
	11:49am KP: joe i have to reluctantly agree with andymorphic.
	11:51am KevinfromBayRidge: @Jennique(11:43), Not a bad thing to graphically look like Jello.
	11:51am KP: That "boring instrumental' title reminds me a friend was once told by a hamptons bar owner to "leave the instrumentals in the garage."
	11:51am Joe McG: @LPB: Agree! When's that new album coming out already?
	11:52am Ralphine: joe@11:49 (eastern time): At the show I saw two tours ago, he did a solo acoustic guitar set in between his main sets that was out of this world.
	11:53am quinn: hi joe!
	👻 11:53am tim from champaign: Dwain Vinyard? I'm dubious of that name. I think it's an alias for Duane Harriot.
	11:54am northguineahills: ha, Tim.
	11:54am Joe McG: Hey Quinn!
	11:55am joe: @Ralphine I've heard of many casual fans converting to full blown obsession after seeing him play
	11:55am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: @Tim - it would not surprise me that Dwain and Duane were the same person.
	11:55am KP: Well Joe, you made my day. Now back to bed.
	11:55am Joe McG: Hey, I want to thank everyone for listening! You made it really easy for me to settle into this new blue-sky chair. Have a great week, and see you next Thursday!
	👻 11:56am 12539: Great show, Joe. Maybe I'll take a nap now for old time's sake.
	11:56am KP: OK!
	11:56am Lonely Planet Boy: I haven't seen a date for a new album.
	11:57am fleep: Based on the volume and variety of listener comments, the show ported to daylight perfectly. Thanks, Joe!
	11:58am Ralphine: There is a line in the book "The Human Stain" that captures how I felt EXACTLY: "That's Irving Berlin. I hear that and everything in me just sort of unclenches, and the wish not to die, never to die, becomes almost too great to bear.''
	11:58am northguineahills: Thanks, Joe!
	👻 11:58am James in ATL: Welcome to Thursday!
