	9:21pm Stevel: I liked it this much! www.youtube.com...
	9:22pm Marmalade Kitty: Have they given charles manson his guitar back yet? If not why not?
	9:22pm Callieflower: Hi, Evan. Hi everyone!
	9:22pm john: I saw these guys open for the Stranglers a million years ago. They didn't sound anywhere near this good live.
	9:23pm Lonious Monk: OHAYO WFMU ! OHAYO EVAN ! OHAYO LISTENERS
	9:23pm neelc23: You psyched for baseball season to begin, efd?
	9:24pm efd: OHAYO Lonius! And john, KP, Loretta, Stevel, Holly, Callieflower, will, M. Kitty, Ken FHP, Mike, Sean and everyone else! Glad to have you all here tonight!
	9:24pm efd: yes I am, Neel!
	9:25pm Holly in NC: Oh my gosh, just yesterday I was just dling all the artifacts/yclept stuff from the FMA, including the earliest SBT releases, what a bizarre coincidence.
	9:25pm EL: Home at last! Howdy efd and all y'all!
	9:27pm neelc23: The vocalist kinda sounds like Rod Stewart.
	9:27pm Holly in NC: Baseball season can't come quickly enough (says this highly disgruntled NCAA basketball fan, grumble grumble)
	9:28pm neelc23: I sympathize with you, Holly.
	9:30pm Lonely Planet Boy: this Yankee fan not looking forward to new season
	9:31pm Callieflower: Is this the year I rediscover baseball? Probably not. But I'll support the baseball love of people I care about
	9:33pm Lonely Planet Boy: 1st time since '79 that a research triangle school missed Sweet 16.
	9:36pm neelc23: @Lonely Planet Boy It could be worse. You could be a Mets fan. jumps off bridge
	9:36pm Holly in NC: @LPB - I know. I don't know what to do with myself! Also, as a fellow Yankee fan I say ...I'm going to focus on the Durham Bulls ;-)
	9:42pm Lonely Planet Boy: not a Star Wars fan, but saw Bulls will wear R2D2 theme jerseys May 4th @ home. funny.
	9:42pm EL: Gnarly.
	9:43pm Stevel: Amazing. I will see Py Py if they come anywhere close to Fort Wayne. Pray for us.
	9:43pm Holly in NC: I really like pypy. And more CanCon!
	9:50pm Mike Lupica: Yeah, that PyPy record rules. I like how they decided to sound like Liquid Liquid on one song, and then go back to screaming their guts out.
	9:52pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Mr. Lupica! Nice to see you. Miss your show.
	9:53pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): So who caught the Upper Crust show last weekend? Wish I could've made it down.
	9:53pm efd: Aargh, I wish I had but I had other obligations last weekend. Next time for sure.
	9:54pm Holly in NC: @MikeLupica, yes, I meant to say hi earlier. You need to sub some shows, I have pretty much gone through all your archives. All.
	9:55pm Mike Lupica: Ha! Thanks @Holly. I know, I am jonesin' BAD. Hey Evan, let me know if you need a fill-in soon!
	9:56pm Mike Lupica: @Pete from Boston (and NJ)! Holy guacamole, it's like the FMU messageboard reunion tonight!
	10:00pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Yes indeed. Where are Parq, Tor, Pampellone, and Raad_Man?
	10:01pm Mike Lupica: I think that's the first Raad_Man reference of 2014 (or 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010...) Email Ken, I think he's supposed to buy you dinner or something.
	10:03pm Uncle Michael: Hello!
	10:03pm Holly in NC: Parq is around, often on the GTDS stream
	10:05pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I was super psyched one time, pulled over in a parking lot in Rocky Hill, CT to call in a pledge (I really did shuttle between my namesake places for many years) when Parq answered the phone.
	10:07pm Santos L Halper: Evening Evan; will look forward to this live set from the squad next month. Holly, saw that SCOTS link when i looked at last week's comments later; thanks! Will try to catch that when i'm up there in August. Oh my lard yes.
	10:09pm steve: hey efd and friends, just tuning in. im relatively new to the comments board, but i have a vague memory of a young Petey calling the Best Show mid 2000s to talk about a guy named Rad Man who was obsessed with Arnold Schwartzenegger. is that at all accurate? or did i dream/hallucinate?
	10:09pm Holly in NC: @Santos - So glad you saw!
	10:09pm efd: Parq checks in here too, from time to time. Mike, I actually just booked a west coast trip for the beginning of September. Let's talk after the next schedule change.
	10:10pm efd: hi ho Uncle Michael, Santos, steve and Pete!
	10:11pm Mike Lupica: Right on, EFD. As always, it my honor to serve!
	10:13pm Barkevious Shabazz: Best segue of the week? Split Squad Messin' Around into Aladin Sane. Luv those nutty ivories.
	10:14pm Uncle Michael: I hope the Coho Lips aren't related to the Insane Coho Lips.
	10:15pm efd: Not related, but that's where they got their name!
	10:17pm Uncle Michael: Speaking of, efd, have you seen the White Sox' new penis race suits?
	10:17pm efd: ?!
	10:18pm Uncle Michael: thechicagohomer.com...
	10:19pm efd: ha! That's pretty good actually.
	10:19pm Uncle Michael: I'm thinking Hawk Harrelson is something Cubs and Red Sox fans can find common ground about.
	10:19pm KP: Goblin!
	10:19pm Holly in NC: @Trouble in Mind, are you lurking this evening? Thumbs up for Espectrostatic! + 2 thumbs up to efd for seguing into Goblin.
	10:20pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Steve -- Petey was a WMFU message board poster in its waning days, when Raad_Man was around and Tom's board was new. I should probably not have this much to say about this. That was around when Ken pulled the plug on the whole thing because, in his immortal words, "it wasn't even stupid anymore."
	10:20pm Uncle Michael: What's good about it?! Except for making fun of it...
	10:21pm pacific standard simon: Sick. And people made fun of The Giants' "Crazy Crab".
	10:22pm ottovonbqe: I listen to this show for the bed sample. Is that wrong?
	10:22pm steve: Goblin, best show of 2013, imo
	10:23pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): (edit: not Ken's words, his quoting of another)
	10:24pm steve: wow Pete, that means a lot coming from Ken. wish i coulda been there.
	10:24pm steve: ...or whoever actually said it
	10:24pm Holly in NC: As @LonelyPlanet Boy noted, Durham Bulls Star Wars uniform will CRUSH all others twitter.com...
	10:25pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Missed that damned Goblin show, &%@$#.
	10:27pm Danne D: Hi EFD :) Hi Funk Fans :) Hi Holly :)
	10:28pm Holly in NC: Hi Danne!!!
	10:28pm KP: Hey Danne D
	10:29pm KP: Half of Everything But the Girl
	10:30pm onlyonesportsworld: Did you get a flat tire in Rocky Hill to? Where there a Jen there? OK, I've asked my questions. Now I'm going to bed.
	10:32pm Holly in NC: I jsut misheard efd as saying "Lloyd Dobler". I still want to marry Lloyd Dobler.
	10:34pm Danne D: Heya KP Yeah the WFMU message boards were...um...something. Honestly worse than even the typical crappy message boards of that or any era. Really bad. Of course the good thing is that out of necessity these playlist comments boards were board in their place. These are really beautiful little set pieces. (I've rolled around in my head the concept of a "best of the comments board premium/prize" of some sort. I really do think there's a good chunk of found art on these. I'm also honest enough to admit that I have contributed almost zero of this found art in spite of my voluminous comments.
	10:34pm Aharon: Ah! Just finished the book "Rip It Up and Start Again"!
	10:35pm ian_: ORANGE JUUUUUUUUUUICE! (p.s. @Aharon, how good was that book??)
	10:35pm Danne D: Hey Aharon :) So by this time next week your team will be destroying mine in fantasy baseball yet again
	10:37pm Holly in NC: @Aharon - GREAT book. The online-only discography addendum is also amazing.
	10:37pm pacific standard simon: Say Holly -- the other day, I made fillet of turduken -- chicken breast poached in brine, wrapped in sliced turkey breast, and fried in duck fat. It was divine.
	10:38pm efd: hey Aharon, hey Danne! Jeez, we've got almost half the fantasy league here tonight!
	10:38pm Aharon: @ian: I thought it was too much of a good thing; maybe read it too quickly. Loved it but felt he kind of got lost in his desire to be comprehensive. But I might reread. @Holly: Oh, cool! @Danne: Every year you say that, and it rarely comes to pass...
	10:38pm efd: Ian! Just heard you mention these Orange Juice reissues... power of suggestion maybe?
	10:40pm ian_: @efd: haha! i'll gladly take the credit. @Aharon: you may already know this, but the UK edition of "Rip It Up" has ~100 additional pages. Why? I don't know, and Simon Reynolds claims even HE doesn't know. So if you have the U.S. version, it might be worthwhile to track down the other one.
	10:40pm Aharon: Also: hello, Evan, Danne, and everyone else! Including those I only know from the comment board and those I know both from the comment board AND other online zones.
	10:41pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): In all fairness, the WFMU message board did not start out bad, but went downhill like they all do. It was a pretty great place to check in during the Jonesy 100h41m. It was the only place, in fact.
	10:41pm Everyone else: Howdy!
	10:41pm Danne D: @Aharon umm when the heck is the last time I finished ahead of you - ever?
	10:41pm Holly in NC: @pss - That sounds beyond delicious!!!!!! Wow. I think I need to try that next week. No, I definitely need to try that next week. Please tell me more about your chicken poaching liquid! Turkey breast - deli or real?
	10:42pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I have known Aharonians but never an Aharon. Welcome.
	10:42pm Holly in NC: Fleep, you trickster.
	10:43pm Danne D: @Pete sigh I unfortunately missed most of the Jonesy marathon that year (though I was around for the last bit) as I went away to visit family in NC that weekend (as I often do around Memorial Day)
	10:43pm pacific standard simon: The only things I remember about the old message board were some fool who was obsessed with Ray Davies, and my developing antipathy for Chris T.
	10:44pm Danne D: Fleep you're just like Evveryone else :o)
	10:44pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Who was obsessed with Ray Davies? I remember that!
	10:45pm Danne D: I know I was on the old message board a little bit (that's where I started using the Danne D name dontcha know) but I also know I didn't go on there much.
	10:46pm Aharon: @Ian: yeah, a friend of mine in DC has both, and has been staring at them longingly while he reads tax code... @Holly: I didn't even consider the secondary enriching materials @Danne: I feel like it's always a bloody fight to the finish, and that you've come out ahead more than a few times. But who's counting? (Clearly not I) @PB(N)J (if that's what you go by): Yeah, the Aharonians are probably Armenians...a wholly different oppressed minority, with better cooking!
	10:47pm pacific standard simon: @Holly - just a tablespoon of salt per quart of water. Turkey was sliced from a turkey breast in front of my eyes at my local deli counter -- should be about an eighth of an inch thick.
	10:48pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): The Jones marathon was the defining moment of WFMU for me. Anyone who knew about it was consumed with it. It was my first taste of the WFMU community. We drove by the station and chatted with random folks doing the same, just to offer encouragement. There was a couple camping in the parking lot in solidarity.
	10:48pm Holly in NC: Before I get in the car I must remark on (and not for the first time) how much I enjoy eastlink.
	10:49pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Aharon -- yes indeed. I am one of those oppressed cooks myself.
	10:49pm ian_: i watched the 2nd game! did NOT get up/stay up for the first one.
	10:49pm pacific standard simon: @Pete - Don't remember who it was. It was around the time that Ray got stabbed or something in New Orleans.
	10:51pm KP: There was a tv hookup for jonesy. That was mesmerizing for me
	10:52pm Aharon: @Pete: haven't been to Armenia yet (would love to go), but I've been to Watertown...
	10:54pm efd: Ian, I'd've thought that game 1 start time might have been more agreeable to west coasters!
	10:55pm ian_: @efd not for old men like me! can't remember the last time i was awake at 1 am and not playing a show.
	10:55pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Watertown is as close as I've been, and as close a substitute as you get without going to Glendale or Beirut.
	10:56pm KP: I used to be only able to listen when I drove into Manhattan for work. We would have a time after 6 we could move cars closer to office and I would stretch it to listen shows in that hour, some of which were incredibly funny
	10:56pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Eat the losh kebab at the market next to Target in Watertown. That is my parting wisdom as I go to bed.
	10:58pm Holly in NC: @Aharon - sometimes the addendum is hard to find, it keeps getting yanked from various sources. If you (or anyone else) can't access, email me & I'll send you the pdf. ~58 pages.
	10:59pm Danne D: I do remember seeing a couple of Jonesy's interviews :)
	11:01pm KP: The bad video made it that much more gripping
	11:01pm Uncle Michael: @PSS, pasteurized eggs have finally reached Kansas...I'm back in the hollandaise again.
	11:04pm Shin-Soo: Oh yeah!
	11:05pm fleep: There's no place like home for the hollandaise.
	11:05pm Aharon: Thanks, (sleeping?) Pete! Next time I'm by there, will do. And thanks, Holly! May take you up on that.
	11:05pm Danne D: Wow The Walrus was in Badfinger
	11:06pm ian_: I'll never understand why Badfinger didn't become the biggest band in the world. Just going to put it down to Apple Records fuckery and most people having horrible taste in music.
	11:07pm Whooda: @fleep Your killing me man!
	11:07pm pacific standard simon: Able was I, ere I saw hollandaise.
	11:12pm ?: Hollandaise: still preferable to Hollandoates
	11:14pm pacific standard simon: @? - I was reaching for something like that, but couldn't find it.
	11:15pm Uncle Michael: fleep won that round.
	11:16pm pacific standard simon: No kidding.
	11:16pm Danne D: If EFD were the voice of MoviePhone it would still be around - just sayin'
	11:18pm pacific standard simon: Hey, "Funk" -- where's the tickets for something on MY side of the continent, huh?
	11:20pm pacific standard simon: For a second, I thought this might be John Entwhistle's "My Size"...
	11:21pm ian_: need to spend some more time with this Mount Carmel record. (this was definitely my favorite track when I checked it out last week, though.)
	11:22pm Uncle Michael: I love the stoner rock.
	11:23pm ScottC: Glen Matlock + Sylvain Sylvain = Rich Pistols? ?? Sex Kids? Sex Dolls! BINGO!
	11:24pm efd: I'm a little disappointed they didn't go with the 1973 Topps design for this album cover.
	11:30pm Uncle Michael: for which, Evan?
	11:31pm efd: Mount Carmel - their previous album cover was mimicking the Topps 1972 card design.
	11:32pm steve: now we're talkin
	11:33pm ian_: i really, really liked Real Women. new one didn't hit me like that. maybe i just like 'em better when they're aping Free?
	11:35pm efd: I only had a chance to skim the new one tonight - need to try to give it a proper listen later on.
	11:35pm efd: steve, glad you were still listening for that g.u.!
	11:37pm steve: me too
	11:37pm Uncle Michael: I gotta turn in. I'll listen to the rest in the dark. Thanks Evan...night all.
	11:38pm efd: thanks for listening UM!
	11:38pm ian_: whoa, this Split Signals track is solid. digging this.
	11:43pm Danne D: @EFD I have a friend I went to college who literally had dozens of house mix CDs that he did (all of which were labeleld "House") - no idea what they are like (Wasn't my thing) but I can inquire if you so desire.
	11:52pm efd: Thanks Danne, I think my itch has been sufficiently scratched by the comps that have come out over the past year or so but I appreciate the offer!
	11:52pm Danne D: no problem Evan :)
	11:53pm steve: Danne - just curious, roughly what year did he make them?
	11:56pm Danne D: late 80s to the very early 90s I don't know if his itch was every scratched he might have kept right on makin' em
	11:57pm Danne D: I gotta pack up now. Thanks for a great show as always Evan :) Have a good night everyone :) Go New Jersey Knuckles!!! :)
	11:57pm fleep: Thanks, efd!
	11:57pm Holly in NC: Runing in to say thank you, efd!
	11:58pm efd: goodnight all, and thanks for listening!
	11:59pm ian_: thanks for the killer chunes!

	9:25pm Holly in NC: Oh my gosh, just yesterday I was just dling all the artifacts/yclept stuff from the FMA, including the earliest SBT releases, what a bizarre coincidence.
	9:25pm EL: Home at last! Howdy efd and all y'all!
	9:27pm neelc23: The vocalist kinda sounds like Rod Stewart.
	9:27pm Holly in NC: Baseball season can't come quickly enough (says this highly disgruntled NCAA basketball fan, grumble grumble)
	9:28pm neelc23: I sympathize with you, Holly.
	9:30pm Lonely Planet Boy: this Yankee fan not looking forward to new season
	9:31pm Callieflower: Is this the year I rediscover baseball? Probably not. But I'll support the baseball love of people I care about
	9:33pm Lonely Planet Boy: 1st time since '79 that a research triangle school missed Sweet 16.
	9:36pm neelc23: @Lonely Planet Boy It could be worse. You could be a Mets fan. jumps off bridge
	9:36pm Holly in NC: @LPB - I know. I don't know what to do with myself! Also, as a fellow Yankee fan I say ...I'm going to focus on the Durham Bulls ;-)
	9:42pm Lonely Planet Boy: not a Star Wars fan, but saw Bulls will wear R2D2 theme jerseys May 4th @ home. funny.
	9:42pm EL: Gnarly.
	9:43pm Stevel: Amazing. I will see Py Py if they come anywhere close to Fort Wayne. Pray for us.
	9:43pm Holly in NC: I really like pypy. And more CanCon!
	9:50pm Mike Lupica: Yeah, that PyPy record rules. I like how they decided to sound like Liquid Liquid on one song, and then go back to screaming their guts out.
	9:52pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Mr. Lupica! Nice to see you. Miss your show.
	9:53pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): So who caught the Upper Crust show last weekend? Wish I could've made it down.
	9:53pm efd: Aargh, I wish I had but I had other obligations last weekend. Next time for sure.
	9:54pm Holly in NC: @MikeLupica, yes, I meant to say hi earlier. You need to sub some shows, I have pretty much gone through all your archives. All.
	9:55pm Mike Lupica: Ha! Thanks @Holly. I know, I am jonesin' BAD. Hey Evan, let me know if you need a fill-in soon!
	9:56pm Mike Lupica: @Pete from Boston (and NJ)! Holy guacamole, it's like the FMU messageboard reunion tonight!
	10:00pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Yes indeed. Where are Parq, Tor, Pampellone, and Raad_Man?
	10:01pm Mike Lupica: I think that's the first Raad_Man reference of 2014 (or 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010...) Email Ken, I think he's supposed to buy you dinner or something.
	10:03pm Uncle Michael: Hello!
	10:03pm Holly in NC: Parq is around, often on the GTDS stream
	10:05pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I was super psyched one time, pulled over in a parking lot in Rocky Hill, CT to call in a pledge (I really did shuttle between my namesake places for many years) when Parq answered the phone.
	10:07pm Santos L Halper: Evening Evan; will look forward to this live set from the squad next month. Holly, saw that SCOTS link when i looked at last week's comments later; thanks! Will try to catch that when i'm up there in August. Oh my lard yes.
	10:09pm steve: hey efd and friends, just tuning in. im relatively new to the comments board, but i have a vague memory of a young Petey calling the Best Show mid 2000s to talk about a guy named Rad Man who was obsessed with Arnold Schwartzenegger. is that at all accurate? or did i dream/hallucinate?
	10:09pm Holly in NC: @Santos - So glad you saw!
	10:09pm efd: Parq checks in here too, from time to time. Mike, I actually just booked a west coast trip for the beginning of September. Let's talk after the next schedule change.
	10:10pm efd: hi ho Uncle Michael, Santos, steve and Pete!
	10:11pm Mike Lupica: Right on, EFD. As always, it my honor to serve!
	10:13pm Barkevious Shabazz: Best segue of the week? Split Squad Messin' Around into Aladin Sane. Luv those nutty ivories.
	10:14pm Uncle Michael: I hope the Coho Lips aren't related to the Insane Coho Lips.
	10:15pm efd: Not related, but that's where they got their name!
	10:17pm Uncle Michael: Speaking of, efd, have you seen the White Sox' new penis race suits?
	10:17pm efd: ?!
	10:18pm Uncle Michael: thechicagohomer.com...
	10:19pm efd: ha! That's pretty good actually.
	10:19pm Uncle Michael: I'm thinking Hawk Harrelson is something Cubs and Red Sox fans can find common ground about.
	10:19pm KP: Goblin!
	10:19pm Holly in NC: @Trouble in Mind, are you lurking this evening? Thumbs up for Espectrostatic! + 2 thumbs up to efd for seguing into Goblin.
	10:20pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Steve -- Petey was a WMFU message board poster in its waning days, when Raad_Man was around and Tom's board was new. I should probably not have this much to say about this. That was around when Ken pulled the plug on the whole thing because, in his immortal words, "it wasn't even stupid anymore."
	10:20pm Uncle Michael: What's good about it?! Except for making fun of it...
	10:21pm pacific standard simon: Sick. And people made fun of The Giants' "Crazy Crab".
	10:22pm ottovonbqe: I listen to this show for the bed sample. Is that wrong?
	10:22pm steve: Goblin, best show of 2013, imo
	10:23pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): (edit: not Ken's words, his quoting of another)
	10:24pm steve: wow Pete, that means a lot coming from Ken. wish i coulda been there.
	10:24pm steve: ...or whoever actually said it
	10:24pm Holly in NC: As @LonelyPlanet Boy noted, Durham Bulls Star Wars uniform will CRUSH all others twitter.com...
	10:25pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Missed that damned Goblin show, &%@$#.
	10:27pm Danne D: Hi EFD :) Hi Funk Fans :) Hi Holly :)
	10:28pm Holly in NC: Hi Danne!!!
	10:28pm KP: Hey Danne D
	10:29pm KP: Half of Everything But the Girl
	10:30pm onlyonesportsworld: Did you get a flat tire in Rocky Hill to? Where there a Jen there? OK, I've asked my questions. Now I'm going to bed.
	10:32pm Holly in NC: I jsut misheard efd as saying "Lloyd Dobler". I still want to marry Lloyd Dobler.
	10:34pm Danne D: Heya KP Yeah the WFMU message boards were...um...something. Honestly worse than even the typical crappy message boards of that or any era. Really bad. Of course the good thing is that out of necessity these playlist comments boards were board in their place. These are really beautiful little set pieces. (I've rolled around in my head the concept of a "best of the comments board premium/prize" of some sort. I really do think there's a good chunk of found art on these. I'm also honest enough to admit that I have contributed almost zero of this found art in spite of my voluminous comments.
	10:34pm Aharon: Ah! Just finished the book "Rip It Up and Start Again"!
	10:35pm ian_: ORANGE JUUUUUUUUUUICE! (p.s. @Aharon, how good was that book??)
	10:35pm Danne D: Hey Aharon :) So by this time next week your team will be destroying mine in fantasy baseball yet again
	10:37pm Holly in NC: @Aharon - GREAT book. The online-only discography addendum is also amazing.
	10:37pm pacific standard simon: Say Holly -- the other day, I made fillet of turduken -- chicken breast poached in brine, wrapped in sliced turkey breast, and fried in duck fat. It was divine.
	10:38pm efd: hey Aharon, hey Danne! Jeez, we've got almost half the fantasy league here tonight!
	10:38pm Aharon: @ian: I thought it was too much of a good thing; maybe read it too quickly. Loved it but felt he kind of got lost in his desire to be comprehensive. But I might reread. @Holly: Oh, cool! @Danne: Every year you say that, and it rarely comes to pass...
	10:38pm efd: Ian! Just heard you mention these Orange Juice reissues... power of suggestion maybe?
	10:40pm ian_: @efd: haha! i'll gladly take the credit. @Aharon: you may already know this, but the UK edition of "Rip It Up" has ~100 additional pages. Why? I don't know, and Simon Reynolds claims even HE doesn't know. So if you have the U.S. version, it might be worthwhile to track down the other one.
	10:40pm Aharon: Also: hello, Evan, Danne, and everyone else! Including those I only know from the comment board and those I know both from the comment board AND other online zones.
	10:41pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): In all fairness, the WFMU message board did not start out bad, but went downhill like they all do. It was a pretty great place to check in during the Jonesy 100h41m. It was the only place, in fact.
	10:41pm Everyone else: Howdy!
	10:41pm Danne D: @Aharon umm when the heck is the last time I finished ahead of you - ever?
	10:41pm Holly in NC: @pss - That sounds beyond delicious!!!!!! Wow. I think I need to try that next week. No, I definitely need to try that next week. Please tell me more about your chicken poaching liquid! Turkey breast - deli or real?
	10:42pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I have known Aharonians but never an Aharon. Welcome.
	10:42pm Holly in NC: Fleep, you trickster.
	10:43pm Danne D: @Pete sigh I unfortunately missed most of the Jonesy marathon that year (though I was around for the last bit) as I went away to visit family in NC that weekend (as I often do around Memorial Day)
	10:43pm pacific standard simon: The only things I remember about the old message board were some fool who was obsessed with Ray Davies, and my developing antipathy for Chris T.
	10:44pm Danne D: Fleep you're just like Evveryone else :o)
	10:44pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Who was obsessed with Ray Davies? I remember that!
	10:45pm Danne D: I know I was on the old message board a little bit (that's where I started using the Danne D name dontcha know) but I also know I didn't go on there much.
	10:46pm Aharon: @Ian: yeah, a friend of mine in DC has both, and has been staring at them longingly while he reads tax code... @Holly: I didn't even consider the secondary enriching materials @Danne: I feel like it's always a bloody fight to the finish, and that you've come out ahead more than a few times. But who's counting? (Clearly not I) @PB(N)J (if that's what you go by): Yeah, the Aharonians are probably Armenians...a wholly different oppressed minority, with better cooking!
	10:47pm pacific standard simon: @Holly - just a tablespoon of salt per quart of water. Turkey was sliced from a turkey breast in front of my eyes at my local deli counter -- should be about an eighth of an inch thick.
	10:48pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): The Jones marathon was the defining moment of WFMU for me. Anyone who knew about it was consumed with it. It was my first taste of the WFMU community. We drove by the station and chatted with random folks doing the same, just to offer encouragement. There was a couple camping in the parking lot in solidarity.
	10:48pm Holly in NC: Before I get in the car I must remark on (and not for the first time) how much I enjoy eastlink.
	10:49pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Aharon -- yes indeed. I am one of those oppressed cooks myself.
	10:49pm ian_: i watched the 2nd game! did NOT get up/stay up for the first one.
	10:49pm pacific standard simon: @Pete - Don't remember who it was. It was around the time that Ray got stabbed or something in New Orleans.
	10:51pm KP: There was a tv hookup for jonesy. That was mesmerizing for me
	10:52pm Aharon: @Pete: haven't been to Armenia yet (would love to go), but I've been to Watertown...
	10:54pm efd: Ian, I'd've thought that game 1 start time might have been more agreeable to west coasters!
	10:55pm ian_: @efd not for old men like me! can't remember the last time i was awake at 1 am and not playing a show.
	10:55pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Watertown is as close as I've been, and as close a substitute as you get without going to Glendale or Beirut.
	10:56pm KP: I used to be only able to listen when I drove into Manhattan for work. We would have a time after 6 we could move cars closer to office and I would stretch it to listen shows in that hour, some of which were incredibly funny
	10:56pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Eat the losh kebab at the market next to Target in Watertown. That is my parting wisdom as I go to bed.
	10:58pm Holly in NC: @Aharon - sometimes the addendum is hard to find, it keeps getting yanked from various sources. If you (or anyone else) can't access, email me & I'll send you the pdf. ~58 pages.
	10:59pm Danne D: I do remember seeing a couple of Jonesy's interviews :)
	11:01pm KP: The bad video made it that much more gripping
	11:01pm Uncle Michael: @PSS, pasteurized eggs have finally reached Kansas...I'm back in the hollandaise again.
	11:04pm Shin-Soo: Oh yeah!
	11:05pm fleep: There's no place like home for the hollandaise.
	11:05pm Aharon: Thanks, (sleeping?) Pete! Next time I'm by there, will do. And thanks, Holly! May take you up on that.
	11:05pm Danne D: Wow The Walrus was in Badfinger
	11:06pm ian_: I'll never understand why Badfinger didn't become the biggest band in the world. Just going to put it down to Apple Records fuckery and most people having horrible taste in music.
	11:07pm Whooda: @fleep Your killing me man!
	11:07pm pacific standard simon: Able was I, ere I saw hollandaise.
	11:12pm ?: Hollandaise: still preferable to Hollandoates
	11:14pm pacific standard simon: @? - I was reaching for something like that, but couldn't find it.
	11:15pm Uncle Michael: fleep won that round.
	11:16pm pacific standard simon: No kidding.
	11:16pm Danne D: If EFD were the voice of MoviePhone it would still be around - just sayin'
	11:18pm pacific standard simon: Hey, "Funk" -- where's the tickets for something on MY side of the continent, huh?
	11:20pm pacific standard simon: For a second, I thought this might be John Entwhistle's "My Size"...
	11:21pm ian_: need to spend some more time with this Mount Carmel record. (this was definitely my favorite track when I checked it out last week, though.)
	11:22pm Uncle Michael: I love the stoner rock.
	11:23pm ScottC: Glen Matlock + Sylvain Sylvain = Rich Pistols? ?? Sex Kids? Sex Dolls! BINGO!
	11:24pm efd: I'm a little disappointed they didn't go with the 1973 Topps design for this album cover.
	11:30pm Uncle Michael: for which, Evan?
	11:31pm efd: Mount Carmel - their previous album cover was mimicking the Topps 1972 card design.
	11:32pm steve: now we're talkin
	11:33pm ian_: i really, really liked Real Women. new one didn't hit me like that. maybe i just like 'em better when they're aping Free?
	11:35pm efd: I only had a chance to skim the new one tonight - need to try to give it a proper listen later on.
	11:35pm efd: steve, glad you were still listening for that g.u.!
	11:37pm steve: me too
	11:37pm Uncle Michael: I gotta turn in. I'll listen to the rest in the dark. Thanks Evan...night all.
	11:38pm efd: thanks for listening UM!
	11:38pm ian_: whoa, this Split Signals track is solid. digging this.
	11:43pm Danne D: @EFD I have a friend I went to college who literally had dozens of house mix CDs that he did (all of which were labeleld "House") - no idea what they are like (Wasn't my thing) but I can inquire if you so desire.
	11:52pm efd: Thanks Danne, I think my itch has been sufficiently scratched by the comps that have come out over the past year or so but I appreciate the offer!
	11:52pm Danne D: no problem Evan :)
	11:53pm steve: Danne - just curious, roughly what year did he make them?
	11:56pm Danne D: late 80s to the very early 90s I don't know if his itch was every scratched he might have kept right on makin' em
	11:57pm Danne D: I gotta pack up now. Thanks for a great show as always Evan :) Have a good night everyone :) Go New Jersey Knuckles!!! :)
	11:57pm fleep: Thanks, efd!
	11:57pm Holly in NC: Runing in to say thank you, efd!
	11:58pm efd: goodnight all, and thanks for listening!
	11:59pm ian_: thanks for the killer chunes!
