WFMU: Tony Coulter: Playlist from July 31, 2018

Listener comments!
	11:40am DDDJJJ666: Oh, the suspense.
	11:59am DDDJJJ666: Let's hope the show that plays today instead of my show is even better than the last show that played instead of my show.
	🥁 12:01pm listener james from westwood: Well, we've got Scritti Politti, so we're doing well so far!
	🥁 12:01pm Yvang: Secret hipsters secretly suck.
	12:02pm JtotheK: hello DDDJJJ666, hi everyone! wait - Tony didn't prank you again and play a repeat of his show???
	12:02pm Rich in Washington: Wait.. This isn't a repeat?
	🥁 12:03pm Yvang: Hi DDDJJJ666 and listeners!
	12:08pm JtotheK: @DDDJJJ666 - what type of punishment did you issue for the blunder that occurred during your last fill-in? do we need be concerned for Tony?
	12:08pm Sem: Hello, hello, I don't know why you say Dubai, I say hello.
	12:10pm DDDJJJ666: Hi all and thanks for your tolerance
	12:11pm DDDJJJ666: Tony was forced to sit in a corner and listen to major label music for his previous acting-out.
	12:13pm Rich in Washington: I am picturing a gimp mask with headphones and Three Dog Night piped into them for 24 hours.
	12:13pm DDDJJJ666: Appropriate music for the current administration.
	12:13pm Dean: Both FGtH and DD appeared on the comment board for Ira's recent fill-in, in which he asked for bands whose names incorporated singular, non-inflected first names.
	12:14pm Dean: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/80331
	12:14pm coelacanth∅: greetings Tonyer666djTJdj... and others
	12:15pm coelacanth∅: haven't heard this ol' chestnut in a minute.
	12:15pm JtotheK: @Rich - excellent visual. Perhaps with a Lawrence Welk record as well.
	12:15pm Dean: Which Tears for Fears will we hear...?
	12:15pm DDDJJJ666: Interesting, except that Duran Duran is not, technically, a first name, as Duran Duran misheard Barbarella, not realizing that his name is actually Durand Durand.
	12:16pm coelacanth∅: i always thought this must be influenced by Alan Vega
	12:17pm DDDJJJ666: Dean, I will be playing Tears For Fears covering Blood, sweat And Tears, of course.
	12:19pm Dean: Perhaps, but Duran is, at least potentially, a first name: https://www.babycenter.com/baby-names-duran-1463833.htm Another restriction was that the name couldn't be eponymous, i.e., one of the band member's, e.g., Huey Lewis & the News. Heh, Blood, Sweat & Tears for Fears
	12:20pm DDDJJJ666: I once happened to be at a now defunct venue in Portland venue called EJ's, eating lunch, where I got to see Dale Bozzio admonish her kids in a thick NY accent at the table next to me. Some later iteration of Missing Persons was playing there that evening. I feel like I REALLY got to see them live in that moment.
	12:21pm Rich in Washington: The keyboard player for Missing Persons now makes new agey 'relaxation music'.
	12:23pm DDDJJJ666: No wonder my bowels loosen when I listen to Missing Persons.
	12:25pm DDDJJJ666: Hey, Tony C, it's time to change your avatar already. Perhaps something from the film Avatar would be appropriate.
	12:25pm Rich in Washington: They're full of moral fiber. 10% more than Magazine.
	12:27pm DDDJJJ666: Regularity was the cornerstone of the new wave. In fact, it is how they made cornerstones.
	12:27pm chris: hi, everyone. that soft cell sure was difficult. but now we are rewarded with Devo. hooray!
	12:27pm Rich in Washington: I remember being a dumb teen and sending away for this cassette, not knowing what Muzak was. I just thought it was some 'whacky' spelling of music and then being really confused and disappointed upon finally hearing it.
	12:28pm Rich in Washington: That might be my third most embarrassing teenage years confession.
	12:28pm DDDJJJ666: If you listen to the Secret Tony Coulter show to avoid difficulty, you are doing it wrong.
	12:29pm DDDJJJ666: I guess it wasn't the tape u want.
	12:30pm coelacanth∅: i do everything wrong. i'm comfortable with consistency.
	12:30pm chris: :)
	12:30pm Rich in Washington: It was the tape I didn't want then, but now I want it back.
	12:30pm Dean: Devo should sue the current Secretary of Education for trademark infringement.
	12:33pm DDDJJJ666: Mark Mothersbaugh should walk around handing out business cards that say "Told ya!"
	12:36pm Dean: My most recent embarrassing AARP years confession (I'm pushing 60): I only last week caught the pun that is the name Adam Ant. And I remember when Dirk Wears White Sox was released.
	12:36pm DDDJJJ666: We had an exterminator out yesterday because Marco Peroni was chewing up our baseboards.
	12:36pm Dean: Rema Rema!
	12:38pm DDDJJJ666: And The Models
	12:40pm DDDJJJ666: The flexi in this Human League EP is the best.
	12:42pm DDDJJJ666: Now that Jeff Sessions has created a Religious Freedoms Task-force, maybe, finally, my Destroy Jeff Sessions religion will be validated.
	12:43pm DDDJJJ666: And, dean, always remember that AARP is an Odyssey.
	12:46pm DDDJJJ666: The Billy Idol autobiography, Dancing With Myself, is a pretty entertaining read. Especially if you like to read about heroin problems. See also Nikki Sixx's book.
	12:47pm Dean: I prefer De Quincey and Coleridge.
	12:48pm DDDJJJ666: Ancient Mariners are so overrated.
	12:48pm Dean: Never liked Oingo Boingo and its insufferable leader, but I have a vague recollection of seeing Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo on TV a long time ago. They were prancing around in gorilla outfits. "Ancient Mariners are so overrated." AARP begs to differ.
	🥁 12:51pm listener james from westwood: Was hoping Talk Talk might pop up!
	12:53pm DDDJJJ666: Speaking of heroin, it's funny to think of jazz musicians struggling with addiction and inequality, only to have the saxophone finally validated in popular culture in the new wave era by cheesy white musicians.
	12:53pm DDDJJJ666: Talk Talk in the hand is better than Duran Duran in Kate Bush.
	12:54pm Dean: I think you meant, "Talk Talk in The The hand..."
	12:56pm DDDJJJ666: If anyone has a Mystic Knights Of The Oingo Boingo 7" they are selling for a hundred bux, lemme know.
	12:57pm Dean: Roxy Music New Wave? I suppose...
	12:58pm DDDJJJ666: Roxy Muzak.
	12:58pm Dean: AKA Eno
	12:59pm Sem: Read that Roxy title as "Stalinesque".
	12:59pm crateslinger: This has so far been a great show for my lunch nap.
	1:00pm DDDJJJ666: Actually, this track is Eno-free.
	1:03pm Ike: Meow
	1:05pm northguineahills: haven't owned a baseball cap since I was 16. I wear heals better then my wife can. (I'm about 1500 miles south of NYC).
	1:08pm northguineahills: (I don't own any hockey jerseys, but I do have a few footy/soccer jerseys).
	1:09pm Dean: Bel, Biv, Devo
	1:11pm northguineahills: damnit Dean, beat me to it!
	1:14pm DDDJJJ666: I think that if you wear a backwards baseball hat, you should be required, by law, to walk backwards. Like an Egyptian.
	1:15pm Dean: At least have the decency to have your baseball hat custom-tailored backwards so that when you wear it it faces forward. Dead or Alive is the band that did "Sugar Magnolia," yes?
	1:19pm DDDJJJ666: I am grateful some of those people are dead.
	1:20pm DDDJJJ666: Maybe Trump should just hire Wall Of Voodoo to stand on the border with Mexico.
	1:21pm Rich in Washington: Wall of Voodoo is the first band I recall having a song officially used in a porno movie. It was Ring of Fire in Rinse Dream's Night Dreams.
	1:22pm DDDJJJ666: Ring Of Fire is definitely not the result you want after sex.
	1:28pm DDDJJJ666: Men Without Hats is the only real cure to the backwards baseball hat pandemic.
	1:30pm chris: men without (jimmy) hats might cause ring of fire
	1:32pm Rich in Washington: Teenagers making tapes is better than the internet because you can always just not play the tapes.
	1:32pm Dean: I've mentioned this before on various WFMU comment boards, but Wall of Voodoo -- either Marc or Stan -- called me to ask my band at the time to open for them at a show in Los Angeles. This was pre-"Mexican Radio." Other members of my band recall that they wanted us to play several shows on the West Coast with them. I have no such recollection. Anyway, we decided instead to break up.
	1:34pm DDDJJJ666: It's like my Mom always said: "always break up when Wall Of Voodoo asks you to play with them." Also: "stop masturbating in the kitchen."
	1:34pm crateslinger: This is like the guy in heavy metal weekend who refused to be interviewed for the "whatever happened to..."
	1:37pm DDDJJJ666: Unsolved Mysteries should tackle that problem.
	1:38pm Rich in Washington: Whatever happened to David Lanfair?
	1:39pm crateslinger: He changed his name and moved to Antarctica
	1:39pm DDDJJJ666: He lives in a Lanfill.
	1:39pm Dean: My mom never said anything similar, but when c.'70 I played the Hair soundtrack on the family stereo she emerged from the kitchen into the front room during "Sodomy" to ask what I was listening to. I explained. It was fine.
	🥁 1:40pm Yvang: This is Echo and the Bunnymen trying to sound like Joy Division... and Francis Bebe at the same time.
	1:41pm DDDJJJ666: See also my Hipsters Suck show from a few years ago called "Hey, Let's Sound Like Joy Division."
	1:42pm Dean: Never understood why Echo & the Bunnymen wasn't called Echo & the Bunnymencho & the Bunnymen.
	🥁 1:42pm Yvang: My boss sounds like Joy Division when I ask for a raise.
	1:43pm Rich in Washington: I wish just one member of Echo & The Bunnymen would tour as Bunnyman.
	1:43pm Dean: U2 asked my band to reunite to do a world tour with them. I told them to fuck off.
	🥁 1:44pm Yvang: Bunnyman and Plastikman on tour.
	1:45pm Rich in Washington: I remember fairly recently that Gene Loves Jezebel was playing - with I think only one original member - at some tiny shithole tavern in the town I live in, Vancouver Washington.
	1:45pm DDDJJJ666: I wish Echo, the drum machine from Echo and the Bunnymen and Dr. Avalanche, the drum machine from Sisters of Mercy, would tour under the name PRETENTIOUS.
	1:46pm Dean: Another I-remember-fun-stuff-back-in-the-good-old-more-or-less-days: I got to interview Vivabeat shortly after Rob Dean left Japan and joined them.
	1:46pm DDDJJJ666: You know, once Dean's old band asked for my old band to open for them, and we decided to become U2 instead.
	1:47pm Rich in Washington: They're now touring as Jay Aston's Gene Loves Jezebel, which is just a step away from Rod Torfulson's Armada featuring Herman Menderchuck
	1:48pm DDDJJJ666: I remeber when GLJ were in town, and I was like, which guy is still with them, Rob or Fab?
	1:49pm Dean: We only asked because we figured the Beach Boys would make a great warm-up act.
	🥁 1:51pm Yvang: I wonder which of the Thompson Twins is Tom Bailey.
	1:52pm DDDJJJ666: When Tom Bailey feels like a washed up star, thousands of miles away, Alannah Currey has the same sensation.
	1:53pm northguineahills: Is it wrong I love this Smith's instrumental?
	🥁 1:57pm Yvang: It's wrong if you love the Morrissey voice in it.
	2:01pm northguineahills: My friend and I found a Falco poster in a thrift store, and we put up on his front door. Falco died that weekend. He never put a poster on his front door again......
	2:03pm Rich in Washington: Have your friend put a trump poster up ASAP! And a pence poster! Pretty please?
	2:05pm Rich in Washington: awkward. sorry.
	2:07pm fred: I found a Benjamin Bret CD in my mailbox today. I didn't even know he had a new one out. I hope the station is getting a copy soon
	2:13pm JtotheK: is growing concerned ... only (less than) 1 hour left for Yello 'Oh Yeah' to be spun!
	2:15pm chris: or, yello's "the race"?
	2:15pm DDDJJJ666: Oh Yeah has been playing subliminally in the background for EVERY song, Bueller!
	2:16pm DDDJJJ666: Falco posters kill. Stay away, kids.
	2:17pm DDDJJJ666: Edie Falco yet lives, so I'm not joking!
	2:20pm northguineahills: @Rich: Even if I thought it would work, I don't think I could take one for the team, the image itself might kill me. (maybe it was the duplex in question, I can sneak there and tape it at night).
	2:21pm DDDJJJ666: Sorry, I went zero dark thirty for a second, I had to have an OMD.
	2:22pm Rich in Washington: I thought OMD was leet speak for Oh my dog.
	2:23pm DDDJJJ666: I would have told you that, but you didn't ASCII me.
	2:25pm DDDJJJ666: You don't need a Ted Allen cookbook if you have this track.
	2:28pm rf: this DJ is cracking me up and I love this music
	2:28pm Rich in Washington: I thought the title was 'Who's That Grill"
	2:29pm fred: That's a nice Depeche Mode cut
	2:29pm DDDJJJ666: Her name be Coleman.
	2:30pm DDDJJJ666: Do you think XM's First Wave will hire me after this show?
	2:30pm DDDJJJ666: Pimpf My Ride!
	2:31pm northguineahills: I didn't receive you, change, over!
	2:32pm Rich in Washington: I really like Soma FM's Underground 80s, which is pretty well curated, other than the inexplicable need to corkscrew Yazoo's Move Out into the ground every couple of hours.
	2:32pm DDDJJJ666: Sounds like all 80's nights in Portland
	2:33pm DDDJJJ666: Although, when I sell out to the dancefloor, I usually play Situation.
	2:33pm Rich in Washington: Cascade Community Radio used to have an edict against playing Eurythmics Sweet Dreams under any circumstances.
	2:33pm DDDJJJ666: I will say, however, very drunk dance crowds will dance to some pretty weird shite.
	2:35pm fred: Judging from the gaping hole in the station's budget, you don't sell out often or well enough
	2:35pm Rich in Washington: I loved Yazoo, and even liked Move Out, but jeez. SO much. And not even a remix of it.
	2:36pm DDDJJJ666: Really, Love Shack I understand (soundtrack to my recent vasectomy, BTW. True fact!), but Sweet Dreams? They made up for it by allowing Marilyn manson's cover of Sweet Dreams.
	2:36pm DDDJJJ666: Hopefully.
	2:37pm DDDJJJ666: Is the gaping hole in the budget roughly the size of a gaping wound in Drumpf's head?
	2:38pm Rich in Washington: My soundtrack to my vasectomy was me continually telling the surgeon that I am really, really resistant to novocaine, lidocaine, etc. for some reason and yelling.
	2:41pm ɛɨk: RISUG now! RISUG now! We want synthetic polymers... uh... in our basements now!
	2:42pm JtotheK: is this the comment board where we discuss /gaping/ holes of all types?
	2:47pm northguineahills: @Rich: I'm immune to novocaine, and nearly numb to lidocaine as well! (found that out while having toe surgery, the hard way). I got it from my mother.
	2:48pm northguineahills: I've been listening to the Cure in my car lately, I might finally make my D section of my old cds by this weekend....
	2:48pm melinda: Hi all
	2:49pm melinda: @Rich yow, that sounds awful
	2:49pm northguineahills: nearly immune to lidocaine....
	2:51pm fred: @ngh and Rich: there had to be a downside to the years you spent getting immune to iocane powder
	2:57pm DDDJJJ666: Thanks for listening humans and non-humans. As a bonus for listening to today's shows, you have all received sonic vasectomies. HOORAY!!!
	2:57pm JtotheK: thanks for the tunes, enjoyed the show!
	2:57pm DDDJJJ666: Oops, Rich, yours was reversed. My bad.
	2:57pm chris: yay! thanks!
	🥁 2:59pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, DDDJJJ666!!
	🥁 2:59pm Yvang: Thanks 666 times!
	2:59pm Rich in Washington: at my age, maybe the missus and I can raise a mutant brood right out of Geek Love. Where's my industrial varnish?
	3:00pm Rich in Washington: Thanks DDD!

	12:28pm Rich in Washington: That might be my third most embarrassing teenage years confession.
	12:28pm DDDJJJ666: If you listen to the Secret Tony Coulter show to avoid difficulty, you are doing it wrong.
	12:29pm DDDJJJ666: I guess it wasn't the tape u want.
	12:30pm coelacanth∅: i do everything wrong. i'm comfortable with consistency.
	12:30pm chris: :)
	12:30pm Rich in Washington: It was the tape I didn't want then, but now I want it back.
	12:30pm Dean: Devo should sue the current Secretary of Education for trademark infringement.
	12:33pm DDDJJJ666: Mark Mothersbaugh should walk around handing out business cards that say "Told ya!"
	12:36pm Dean: My most recent embarrassing AARP years confession (I'm pushing 60): I only last week caught the pun that is the name Adam Ant. And I remember when Dirk Wears White Sox was released.
	12:36pm DDDJJJ666: We had an exterminator out yesterday because Marco Peroni was chewing up our baseboards.
	12:36pm Dean: Rema Rema!
	12:38pm DDDJJJ666: And The Models
	12:40pm DDDJJJ666: The flexi in this Human League EP is the best.
	12:42pm DDDJJJ666: Now that Jeff Sessions has created a Religious Freedoms Task-force, maybe, finally, my Destroy Jeff Sessions religion will be validated.
	12:43pm DDDJJJ666: And, dean, always remember that AARP is an Odyssey.
	12:46pm DDDJJJ666: The Billy Idol autobiography, Dancing With Myself, is a pretty entertaining read. Especially if you like to read about heroin problems. See also Nikki Sixx's book.
	12:47pm Dean: I prefer De Quincey and Coleridge.
	12:48pm DDDJJJ666: Ancient Mariners are so overrated.
	12:48pm Dean: Never liked Oingo Boingo and its insufferable leader, but I have a vague recollection of seeing Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo on TV a long time ago. They were prancing around in gorilla outfits. "Ancient Mariners are so overrated." AARP begs to differ.
	🥁 12:51pm listener james from westwood: Was hoping Talk Talk might pop up!
	12:53pm DDDJJJ666: Speaking of heroin, it's funny to think of jazz musicians struggling with addiction and inequality, only to have the saxophone finally validated in popular culture in the new wave era by cheesy white musicians.
	12:53pm DDDJJJ666: Talk Talk in the hand is better than Duran Duran in Kate Bush.
	12:54pm Dean: I think you meant, "Talk Talk in The The hand..."
	12:56pm DDDJJJ666: If anyone has a Mystic Knights Of The Oingo Boingo 7" they are selling for a hundred bux, lemme know.
	12:57pm Dean: Roxy Music New Wave? I suppose...
	12:58pm DDDJJJ666: Roxy Muzak.
	12:58pm Dean: AKA Eno
	12:59pm Sem: Read that Roxy title as "Stalinesque".
	12:59pm crateslinger: This has so far been a great show for my lunch nap.
	1:00pm DDDJJJ666: Actually, this track is Eno-free.
	1:03pm Ike: Meow
	1:05pm northguineahills: haven't owned a baseball cap since I was 16. I wear heals better then my wife can. (I'm about 1500 miles south of NYC).
	1:08pm northguineahills: (I don't own any hockey jerseys, but I do have a few footy/soccer jerseys).
	1:09pm Dean: Bel, Biv, Devo
	1:11pm northguineahills: damnit Dean, beat me to it!
	1:14pm DDDJJJ666: I think that if you wear a backwards baseball hat, you should be required, by law, to walk backwards. Like an Egyptian.
	1:15pm Dean: At least have the decency to have your baseball hat custom-tailored backwards so that when you wear it it faces forward. Dead or Alive is the band that did "Sugar Magnolia," yes?
	1:19pm DDDJJJ666: I am grateful some of those people are dead.
	1:20pm DDDJJJ666: Maybe Trump should just hire Wall Of Voodoo to stand on the border with Mexico.
	1:21pm Rich in Washington: Wall of Voodoo is the first band I recall having a song officially used in a porno movie. It was Ring of Fire in Rinse Dream's Night Dreams.
	1:22pm DDDJJJ666: Ring Of Fire is definitely not the result you want after sex.
	1:28pm DDDJJJ666: Men Without Hats is the only real cure to the backwards baseball hat pandemic.
	1:30pm chris: men without (jimmy) hats might cause ring of fire
	1:32pm Rich in Washington: Teenagers making tapes is better than the internet because you can always just not play the tapes.
	1:32pm Dean: I've mentioned this before on various WFMU comment boards, but Wall of Voodoo -- either Marc or Stan -- called me to ask my band at the time to open for them at a show in Los Angeles. This was pre-"Mexican Radio." Other members of my band recall that they wanted us to play several shows on the West Coast with them. I have no such recollection. Anyway, we decided instead to break up.
	1:34pm DDDJJJ666: It's like my Mom always said: "always break up when Wall Of Voodoo asks you to play with them." Also: "stop masturbating in the kitchen."
	1:34pm crateslinger: This is like the guy in heavy metal weekend who refused to be interviewed for the "whatever happened to..."
	1:37pm DDDJJJ666: Unsolved Mysteries should tackle that problem.
	1:38pm Rich in Washington: Whatever happened to David Lanfair?
	1:39pm crateslinger: He changed his name and moved to Antarctica
	1:39pm DDDJJJ666: He lives in a Lanfill.
	1:39pm Dean: My mom never said anything similar, but when c.'70 I played the Hair soundtrack on the family stereo she emerged from the kitchen into the front room during "Sodomy" to ask what I was listening to. I explained. It was fine.
	🥁 1:40pm Yvang: This is Echo and the Bunnymen trying to sound like Joy Division... and Francis Bebe at the same time.
	1:41pm DDDJJJ666: See also my Hipsters Suck show from a few years ago called "Hey, Let's Sound Like Joy Division."
	1:42pm Dean: Never understood why Echo & the Bunnymen wasn't called Echo & the Bunnymencho & the Bunnymen.
	🥁 1:42pm Yvang: My boss sounds like Joy Division when I ask for a raise.
	1:43pm Rich in Washington: I wish just one member of Echo & The Bunnymen would tour as Bunnyman.
	1:43pm Dean: U2 asked my band to reunite to do a world tour with them. I told them to fuck off.
	🥁 1:44pm Yvang: Bunnyman and Plastikman on tour.
	1:45pm Rich in Washington: I remember fairly recently that Gene Loves Jezebel was playing - with I think only one original member - at some tiny shithole tavern in the town I live in, Vancouver Washington.
	1:45pm DDDJJJ666: I wish Echo, the drum machine from Echo and the Bunnymen and Dr. Avalanche, the drum machine from Sisters of Mercy, would tour under the name PRETENTIOUS.
	1:46pm Dean: Another I-remember-fun-stuff-back-in-the-good-old-more-or-less-days: I got to interview Vivabeat shortly after Rob Dean left Japan and joined them.
	1:46pm DDDJJJ666: You know, once Dean's old band asked for my old band to open for them, and we decided to become U2 instead.
	1:47pm Rich in Washington: They're now touring as Jay Aston's Gene Loves Jezebel, which is just a step away from Rod Torfulson's Armada featuring Herman Menderchuck
	1:48pm DDDJJJ666: I remeber when GLJ were in town, and I was like, which guy is still with them, Rob or Fab?
	1:49pm Dean: We only asked because we figured the Beach Boys would make a great warm-up act.
	🥁 1:51pm Yvang: I wonder which of the Thompson Twins is Tom Bailey.
	1:52pm DDDJJJ666: When Tom Bailey feels like a washed up star, thousands of miles away, Alannah Currey has the same sensation.
	1:53pm northguineahills: Is it wrong I love this Smith's instrumental?
	🥁 1:57pm Yvang: It's wrong if you love the Morrissey voice in it.
	2:01pm northguineahills: My friend and I found a Falco poster in a thrift store, and we put up on his front door. Falco died that weekend. He never put a poster on his front door again......
	2:03pm Rich in Washington: Have your friend put a trump poster up ASAP! And a pence poster! Pretty please?
	2:05pm Rich in Washington: awkward. sorry.
	2:07pm fred: I found a Benjamin Bret CD in my mailbox today. I didn't even know he had a new one out. I hope the station is getting a copy soon
	2:13pm JtotheK: is growing concerned ... only (less than) 1 hour left for Yello 'Oh Yeah' to be spun!
	2:15pm chris: or, yello's "the race"?
	2:15pm DDDJJJ666: Oh Yeah has been playing subliminally in the background for EVERY song, Bueller!
	2:16pm DDDJJJ666: Falco posters kill. Stay away, kids.
	2:17pm DDDJJJ666: Edie Falco yet lives, so I'm not joking!
	2:20pm northguineahills: @Rich: Even if I thought it would work, I don't think I could take one for the team, the image itself might kill me. (maybe it was the duplex in question, I can sneak there and tape it at night).
	2:21pm DDDJJJ666: Sorry, I went zero dark thirty for a second, I had to have an OMD.
	2:22pm Rich in Washington: I thought OMD was leet speak for Oh my dog.
	2:23pm DDDJJJ666: I would have told you that, but you didn't ASCII me.
	2:25pm DDDJJJ666: You don't need a Ted Allen cookbook if you have this track.
	2:28pm rf: this DJ is cracking me up and I love this music
	2:28pm Rich in Washington: I thought the title was 'Who's That Grill"
	2:29pm fred: That's a nice Depeche Mode cut
	2:29pm DDDJJJ666: Her name be Coleman.
	2:30pm DDDJJJ666: Do you think XM's First Wave will hire me after this show?
	2:30pm DDDJJJ666: Pimpf My Ride!
	2:31pm northguineahills: I didn't receive you, change, over!
	2:32pm Rich in Washington: I really like Soma FM's Underground 80s, which is pretty well curated, other than the inexplicable need to corkscrew Yazoo's Move Out into the ground every couple of hours.
	2:32pm DDDJJJ666: Sounds like all 80's nights in Portland
	2:33pm DDDJJJ666: Although, when I sell out to the dancefloor, I usually play Situation.
	2:33pm Rich in Washington: Cascade Community Radio used to have an edict against playing Eurythmics Sweet Dreams under any circumstances.
	2:33pm DDDJJJ666: I will say, however, very drunk dance crowds will dance to some pretty weird shite.
	2:35pm fred: Judging from the gaping hole in the station's budget, you don't sell out often or well enough
	2:35pm Rich in Washington: I loved Yazoo, and even liked Move Out, but jeez. SO much. And not even a remix of it.
	2:36pm DDDJJJ666: Really, Love Shack I understand (soundtrack to my recent vasectomy, BTW. True fact!), but Sweet Dreams? They made up for it by allowing Marilyn manson's cover of Sweet Dreams.
	2:36pm DDDJJJ666: Hopefully.
	2:37pm DDDJJJ666: Is the gaping hole in the budget roughly the size of a gaping wound in Drumpf's head?
	2:38pm Rich in Washington: My soundtrack to my vasectomy was me continually telling the surgeon that I am really, really resistant to novocaine, lidocaine, etc. for some reason and yelling.
	2:41pm ɛɨk: RISUG now! RISUG now! We want synthetic polymers... uh... in our basements now!
	2:42pm JtotheK: is this the comment board where we discuss /gaping/ holes of all types?
	2:47pm northguineahills: @Rich: I'm immune to novocaine, and nearly numb to lidocaine as well! (found that out while having toe surgery, the hard way). I got it from my mother.
	2:48pm northguineahills: I've been listening to the Cure in my car lately, I might finally make my D section of my old cds by this weekend....
	2:48pm melinda: Hi all
	2:49pm melinda: @Rich yow, that sounds awful
	2:49pm northguineahills: nearly immune to lidocaine....
	2:51pm fred: @ngh and Rich: there had to be a downside to the years you spent getting immune to iocane powder
	2:57pm DDDJJJ666: Thanks for listening humans and non-humans. As a bonus for listening to today's shows, you have all received sonic vasectomies. HOORAY!!!
	2:57pm JtotheK: thanks for the tunes, enjoyed the show!
	2:57pm DDDJJJ666: Oops, Rich, yours was reversed. My bad.
	2:57pm chris: yay! thanks!
	🥁 2:59pm listener james from westwood: Thanks, DDDJJJ666!!
	🥁 2:59pm Yvang: Thanks 666 times!
	2:59pm Rich in Washington: at my age, maybe the missus and I can raise a mutant brood right out of Geek Love. Where's my industrial varnish?
	3:00pm Rich in Washington: Thanks DDD!
