	9:20am judy from croton: This Desertion is gorgeous and conversational
	9:20am steveo: Good morning Scott & everyone. Sounds wonderful.
	9:20am poo-mania: pick any Canadian city
	9:20am glenn: west end of toronto.
	9:22am TDK60: Ah, Toronto. Maltese I hear is a unique language. I know there's also a Portuguese section of your fair city.
	9:22am poo-mania: more pressingly, where's croton?
	9:23am JakeGould: Scott, poo-mania is a troll. Same entity has shown up recently on many different playlists spiting the same nonsense.
	9:24am poo-mania: how dare u sir!
	9:24am glenn: the portugese are kinda everywhere.
	9:24am poo-mania: i refute those allegations strongly
	9:24am TDK60: Getachew!
	9:24am JakeGould: But at least he isn’t talking politics, amirite?
	9:25am fred: This Getachew reminds me of Jason Elbogen. Has anyone been in touch with him lately?
	9:25am Chris from DC: Thought I recognized this. Cool.
	9:25am poo-mania: the definition of troll is not; 'something that Jake thinks is nonsense'
	9:26am glenn: deny the allegations and defy the alligators.
	9:27am poo-mania: i could always tell you the temperature where I am if u prfer that
	9:27am poo-mania: or i could take my own temperature; but i choose where to stick the thermometer
	9:29am poo-mania: in fact, i live in a small town called Pootle, hence the name
	9:29am poo-mania: killer baseline
	9:30am TDK60: ..the temperament here (U$A) is reactionary+.
	9:32am poo-mania: remember when Jaye bared her chest?
	9:32am randyfrommichigan: My wife grew up in Hamtramck, her mother still lives there ... a guy decorated his house like Disneyland ... gotta be the inspiration for that song!
	9:34am poo-mania: a guy, u say; there is no link, i take it, between your mother, her house, and this decorator freak?
	9:34am TDK60: randy: I have a pal who lives in NE Detroit, not far from the border with Hamtramck.
	9:34am randyfrommichigan: no my wife's mother ... he lives in same little city - Hamtramck
	9:36am randyfrommichigan: @TDK60 cool! I drove from Hamtramck to Warren a few weeks ago and had to drive thru NE Detroit, pretty scary area, hopefully your pal is in a decent part
	9:36am Ike: Hello!
	9:36am TDK60: G. Makurya did some fun live stuff with Dutch art-punx, The Ex.
	9:37am randyfrommichigan: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/hamtramck-disneyland
	9:37am poo-mania: Anyone got Ethiopiques 13? I think its the one with the female piano player, i gave it away to someone, but the wrong person. I should have given it to the person who really liked it, but i didnt.
	9:37am steveo: scott, it's totally that jaye p morgan jayepmorgan.com
	9:38am TDK60: Been there, my pal is a tough union radical, white dude, friends with all his black neighbors.
	9:38am randyfrommichigan: googled the previous link plus this ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CV3Shz86AwY
	9:38am randyfrommichigan: @Scott yes it's the same Jaye P. Morgan from The Gong Show
	9:39am Registered Listener: I think the spirit of Harnessed in Slums would fit well with wake & bake.
	9:39am poo-mania: of course it is, she only released one album in the 70s, a soul/disco album
	9:39am Scott McDowell: Hey everybody, Anteloper in studio today. YEAH
	9:39am poo-mania: YEAHHHHHH Scotty
	9:41am randyfrommichigan: @TDK60 that's cool, that's what you gotta do ... my mother-in-law is the same, tough German lady, friends with her non-white neighbors in Hamtramck, they help each other out to survive there
	9:42am The Oscar: Mornin'! Not sure if he remembers me, but I'm 90% sure I used to work with Jason from Anteloper at a major chain bookstore in Boston maybe 15 years ago. If so, tell him I say howdy!
	9:43am TDK60: ..he told me he's had some close calls; once at a traffic stop some kids put a pistol in his face. He ripped the gun out of their hand and drove off.
	9:43am poo-mania: Barnes & Noble then
	9:44am randyfrommichigan: @davefromtoronto has been there too many years ago ... wassup bro?
	9:44am TDK60: ..another time he was sitting in a mainly black bar and the cops came in and beat up everybody, for no reason.
	9:45am randyfrommichigan: @TDK60 wow! I wish I didn't know that ... I try to avoid driving thru that area ... when I did it back in December it was the evening, I think I might have only seen one or two cars during 10 min of driving, almost no houses or people, was relieved when I crossed 8 mile rd!
	9:45am randyfrommichigan: @TDK60 wow again
	9:47am Brendan: TDK, was his name by chance, Walt Kowalski? I’m getting a visual from Grand Torino.
	9:47am The Oscar: @poo-mania Yep-- in the music department, which attracted a very specific strain of batshit customer. We had not one, but two regulars who were street clowns (named Bobo and Scruffy). They were literally feuding. It was insane.
	9:48am TDK60: Brendan: No, Mike. Obviously not easily intimidated.
	9:48am randyfrommichigan: @Brendan LOL totally! Loved that movie BTW.
	9:49am poo-mania: did the clowns buy music books or cds
	9:52am The Oscar: @poo-mania I don't remember if Scruffy ever bought anything, but Bobo would exclusively buy Lou Monte CDs, which he would order 5 or 6 at a time. He eventually exhausted the supply at the warehouse, and subsequently threw a fit.
	9:54am βrian: Was there a recent change to the CSS for the playlist? The comments text is cut off on the right.
	9:55am poo-mania: if thats true, then it must have been quite a bizarre thing to witness. I wonder what ever happened to Bobo
	9:55am coelacanth∅: good morning Scott & others
	9:58am The Oscar: @poo-mania I still see him around town occasionally, which never fails to make my blood run cold. My girlfriend describes my reaction as "Like when a cat sees another cat."
	9:59am poo-mania: does that make u a clown in her eyes?
	10:01am The Oscar: Ha-- If there's one thing I learned from the experience, it's that we're all just a few steps away from becoming just another unstable balloon clown.
	10:01am poo-mania: pretty much sums me up
	10:02am Brendan: Brian, CSS? Nobody says that and lives - not in this here town! Thats high falutin web developer talk! He’s one of them! Git a rope!
	10:02am randyfrommichigan: @The Oscar yup so true!
	10:03am JakeGould: @TheOscar: So these were balloon guys? Weird middle aged men to hang out in the malls, main streets and near playgrounds making balloons and people accept that as if that is normal?
	10:05am poo-mania: i expected this reaction from Jake
	10:06am poo-mania: clowns are lovely, trying ti make everyones day happy; at least when on duty
	10:06am Brendan: Seriously Jake , thats a clown question.
	10:08am βrian: @Brendan: I'll tell you I honestly believe javascript is the root of all evil, if that helps.
	10:08am The Oscar: @Jake To be fair, I don't think anyone could take a look at either Bobo or Scruffy and think "normal." The only times I ever saw Bobo "on duty" was in the subway, which was even more unnerving. We had a news clipping behind the register from when Bobo got arrested for making lewd balloon animals. I swear I am not making this up.
	10:09am Brendan: @Brian I ++ that.
	10:10am coelacanth∅: my next band: "lewd balloon animals"
	10:10am poo-mania: u sure these werent just homeless guys who found some funky clothes and a bag of balloons
	10:12am poo-mania: my worst fear if i was homeless is where am i gonna take my next hi
	10:13am The Oscar: @poo-mania Honestly, that's probably a pretty apt description of Scruffy. Bobo at least had a phone number, which I had to call whenever his Lou Monte CDs came in. His outgoing message had calliope music on it, and ended with him making calliope noises with is mouth (which didn't line up at all with the actual background music).
	10:13am Listener Gregory: Any idea if this is composed or a group improvisation?
	10:14am coelacanth∅: so you have poo-phobia?
	10:14am JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: How many bands have you had?
	10:14am Krys O.: Don't feed the trolls.
	10:15am poo-mania: @TheOscar, these tales are charming if true, but beware, they are almost at the level where some in here may call u out as a troll, or a clown if youre lucky
	10:16am TDK60: Alice shall please all..
	10:16am βrian: Cat has found lap ...
	10:19am poo-mania: itll be almost Criminal now is Scott doesny ask Jason about Bobo n Scruffy.
	10:21am The Oscar: I promise these are all true (and they're not even the craziest stories!). I have friends who worked at Tower Records in Cambridge who also had to deal with him. He was something of a scourge for a while there. I think he finally got banned a year or two after I quit.
	10:21am βrian: Got my diving phins on.
	10:23am Barney Grubbs: Jaye P. Morgan also featured on an episode of the Muppet Show www.youtube.com...
	10:23am JakeGould: @KrysO: Exactly. But hey, what do I know.
	10:24am mb: oh Jaimie Branch. Maybe i delay turning myself in to the police until this afternoon.
	10:24am Chris from DC: Wow, this.
	10:24am TDK60: this stuff should be climbing the WFMU charts.
	10:25am steveo: could have used another 20 minutes of this
	10:25am coelacanth∅: Oscar, anyone who's worked with the public -or gets out of the house now & then, knows there's nothing unbelievable about your tales. especially in specific markets, like book stores; health food stores, etc.
	10:25am steveo: oh good, it's still going
	10:26am TDK60: ..are these folks tryin' to whip us into a frenzied trance?
	10:26am coelacanth∅: JG -1.
	10:27am Chris from DC: Into the Bandcamp wish list that goes.
	10:27am The Oscar: @coelacanth Oh, for sure. I went on to work at an actual record store for many years, which had a similar (and slightly overlapping) rogue's gallery, but B&N had a special breed.
	10:29am JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: Can you clarify your -1? Me asking about bands or me +1ing KrysO’s comment about trolls on the chat-comments thing-a-ma-jig.
	10:30am JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: “Oscar, anyone who's worked with the public—or gets out of the house now & then—knows there's nothing unbelievable about your tales.” This is really obnoxious for no reason. Oscar’s tales are valid and unique.
	10:31am coelacanth∅: yeah the health food stores had their own special breed as well.
	10:32am brick layer: feelin this one
	10:32am JakeGould: @TheOScar: Did you see this Improv Everywhere prank where they got Anton Chekov to do a reading at the old Barnes and Noble on 23rd and 6th Avenue in Manhattan? SO GOOD! youtu.be...
	10:32am TDK60: ..hats off to all WFMU staff -normal & weirdo- for forging ahead.
	10:32am poo-mania: Jake forgot his tablets
	10:34am steveo: just got written up by my supervisor for "chair boogie"
	10:34am The Oscar: @JG Oh man-- bookmarking that for lunchbreak viewing!
	10:35am coelacanth∅: Jake -the former. Jake - "you think this is really obnoxious, for no reason".
	10:36am Listener Gregory: I looked it up, and the Turiya song by Cyrille et al. was written by Smith. You're welcome.
	10:36am JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: Look, not all of us can be as world experienced as you.
	10:36am JakeGould: @TheOscar: It’s really amazing.
	10:37am The Oscar: @JG I think coel's comment was in response to poo-mania's earlier comment about potential doubt. It's all good :)
	10:37am randyfrommichigan: the current song album cover looks like my view today ... well without the mountains :)
	10:37am steveo: i think -1 was the number of bands?
	10:38am steveo: (ok now i'm the troll, please ignore me)
	10:39am Brendan: Lets all huddle up and group hug. , If for no other reason than its freezing outside. And no pervy clown groping.
	10:40am JakeGould: @Brendan: No. @steveo: Now that burn is keeping me warm!
	10:40am TDK60: ..if all else fails, we could talk about the music. or meditate or both..
	10:41am ben abs: This comments board was better when it focussed on pastries ;)
	10:42am davefromtoronto: hey randyfrommichigan- can i get a whoop-whoop?
	10:45am TDK60: ben abs- that's it! we'll bring in an Englishman to referee.
	10:45am coelacanth∅: Oscar (@10.37) Thank you. thought it was obvious.
	10:47am yippie: ew ah
	10:47am TDK60: ..sorry, Welsh!
	10:48am mb: This is shopping for licorice music. I can feel the floorboards creaking below my feet.
	10:48am yippie: MANX
	10:48am TDK60: Sun Ra's truly climbing the WFMU charts, it's out of this world.
	10:50am randyfrommichigan: @davefromtoronto whoop WHOOP!
	10:51am ben abs: hahahaha - TDK60! - Correct!
	10:51am davefromtoronto: HEY NOW!!!
	10:53am steveo: sun ra might be the most-played artist of all time here... yay -- anteloper!
	10:53am TDK60: so, cheese Danish, or croissant?
	10:55am randyfrommichigan: jimball kimball

	11:15am TDK60: ..this just in> negotiations have finally taken a positive turn between the prog rockers and the post-post-punk-what-have-yous..
	11:17am Listener Gregory: The sound quality is extremely good for a live set. I keep thinking, "What record IS this?" Nice work.
	11:19am Passaic River Blues: @Listener Gregory: absolutely. Props to Rachel Herman.
	11:19am Ken From Hyde Park: Blah, I hope the Bandcamp link I posted isn't referring to some other band. Sorry if it caused confusion.

	9:16am poo-mania: but its still dam good
	9:18am glenn: howdy. -20c [-31c with wind chill] here in little malta. www.youtube.com...

	9:20am glenn: west end of toronto.
	9:22am TDK60: Ah, Toronto. Maltese I hear is a unique language. I know there's also a Portuguese section of your fair city.
	9:22am poo-mania: more pressingly, where's croton?
	9:23am JakeGould: Scott, poo-mania is a troll. Same entity has shown up recently on many different playlists spiting the same nonsense.

	9:29am poo-mania: killer baseline
	9:30am TDK60: ..the temperament here (U$A) is reactionary+.
	9:32am poo-mania: remember when Jaye bared her chest?
	9:32am randyfrommichigan: My wife grew up in Hamtramck, her mother still lives there ... a guy decorated his house like Disneyland ... gotta be the inspiration for that song!
	9:34am poo-mania: a guy, u say; there is no link, i take it, between your mother, her house, and this decorator freak?
	9:34am TDK60: randy: I have a pal who lives in NE Detroit, not far from the border with Hamtramck.
	9:34am randyfrommichigan: no my wife's mother ... he lives in same little city - Hamtramck
	9:36am randyfrommichigan: @TDK60 cool! I drove from Hamtramck to Warren a few weeks ago and had to drive thru NE Detroit, pretty scary area, hopefully your pal is in a decent part
	9:36am Ike: Hello!
	9:36am TDK60: G. Makurya did some fun live stuff with Dutch art-punx, The Ex.
	9:37am randyfrommichigan: https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/hamtramck-disneyland
	9:37am poo-mania: Anyone got Ethiopiques 13? I think its the one with the female piano player, i gave it away to someone, but the wrong person. I should have given it to the person who really liked it, but i didnt.
	9:37am steveo: scott, it's totally that jaye p morgan jayepmorgan.com
	9:38am TDK60: Been there, my pal is a tough union radical, white dude, friends with all his black neighbors.
	9:38am randyfrommichigan: googled the previous link plus this ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CV3Shz86AwY
	9:38am randyfrommichigan: @Scott yes it's the same Jaye P. Morgan from The Gong Show
	9:39am Registered Listener: I think the spirit of Harnessed in Slums would fit well with wake & bake.
	9:39am poo-mania: of course it is, she only released one album in the 70s, a soul/disco album
	9:39am Scott McDowell: Hey everybody, Anteloper in studio today. YEAH
	9:39am poo-mania: YEAHHHHHH Scotty
	9:41am randyfrommichigan: @TDK60 that's cool, that's what you gotta do ... my mother-in-law is the same, tough German lady, friends with her non-white neighbors in Hamtramck, they help each other out to survive there
	9:42am The Oscar: Mornin'! Not sure if he remembers me, but I'm 90% sure I used to work with Jason from Anteloper at a major chain bookstore in Boston maybe 15 years ago. If so, tell him I say howdy!
	9:43am TDK60: ..he told me he's had some close calls; once at a traffic stop some kids put a pistol in his face. He ripped the gun out of their hand and drove off.
	9:43am poo-mania: Barnes & Noble then
	9:44am randyfrommichigan: @davefromtoronto has been there too many years ago ... wassup bro?
	9:44am TDK60: ..another time he was sitting in a mainly black bar and the cops came in and beat up everybody, for no reason.
	9:45am randyfrommichigan: @TDK60 wow! I wish I didn't know that ... I try to avoid driving thru that area ... when I did it back in December it was the evening, I think I might have only seen one or two cars during 10 min of driving, almost no houses or people, was relieved when I crossed 8 mile rd!
	9:45am randyfrommichigan: @TDK60 wow again
	9:47am Brendan: TDK, was his name by chance, Walt Kowalski? I’m getting a visual from Grand Torino.
	9:47am The Oscar: @poo-mania Yep-- in the music department, which attracted a very specific strain of batshit customer. We had not one, but two regulars who were street clowns (named Bobo and Scruffy). They were literally feuding. It was insane.
	9:48am TDK60: Brendan: No, Mike. Obviously not easily intimidated.
	9:48am randyfrommichigan: @Brendan LOL totally! Loved that movie BTW.
	9:49am poo-mania: did the clowns buy music books or cds
	9:52am The Oscar: @poo-mania I don't remember if Scruffy ever bought anything, but Bobo would exclusively buy Lou Monte CDs, which he would order 5 or 6 at a time. He eventually exhausted the supply at the warehouse, and subsequently threw a fit.
	9:54am βrian: Was there a recent change to the CSS for the playlist? The comments text is cut off on the right.
	9:55am poo-mania: if thats true, then it must have been quite a bizarre thing to witness. I wonder what ever happened to Bobo
	9:55am coelacanth∅: good morning Scott & others
	9:58am The Oscar: @poo-mania I still see him around town occasionally, which never fails to make my blood run cold. My girlfriend describes my reaction as "Like when a cat sees another cat."
	9:59am poo-mania: does that make u a clown in her eyes?
	10:01am The Oscar: Ha-- If there's one thing I learned from the experience, it's that we're all just a few steps away from becoming just another unstable balloon clown.
	10:01am poo-mania: pretty much sums me up
	10:02am Brendan: Brian, CSS? Nobody says that and lives - not in this here town! Thats high falutin web developer talk! He’s one of them! Git a rope!
	10:02am randyfrommichigan: @The Oscar yup so true!
	10:03am JakeGould: @TheOscar: So these were balloon guys? Weird middle aged men to hang out in the malls, main streets and near playgrounds making balloons and people accept that as if that is normal?
	10:05am poo-mania: i expected this reaction from Jake
	10:06am poo-mania: clowns are lovely, trying ti make everyones day happy; at least when on duty
	10:06am Brendan: Seriously Jake , thats a clown question.
	10:08am βrian: @Brendan: I'll tell you I honestly believe javascript is the root of all evil, if that helps.
	10:08am The Oscar: @Jake To be fair, I don't think anyone could take a look at either Bobo or Scruffy and think "normal." The only times I ever saw Bobo "on duty" was in the subway, which was even more unnerving. We had a news clipping behind the register from when Bobo got arrested for making lewd balloon animals. I swear I am not making this up.
	10:09am Brendan: @Brian I ++ that.
	10:10am coelacanth∅: my next band: "lewd balloon animals"
	10:10am poo-mania: u sure these werent just homeless guys who found some funky clothes and a bag of balloons
	10:12am poo-mania: my worst fear if i was homeless is where am i gonna take my next hi
	10:13am The Oscar: @poo-mania Honestly, that's probably a pretty apt description of Scruffy. Bobo at least had a phone number, which I had to call whenever his Lou Monte CDs came in. His outgoing message had calliope music on it, and ended with him making calliope noises with is mouth (which didn't line up at all with the actual background music).
	10:13am Listener Gregory: Any idea if this is composed or a group improvisation?
	10:14am coelacanth∅: so you have poo-phobia?
	10:14am JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: How many bands have you had?
	10:14am Krys O.: Don't feed the trolls.
	10:15am poo-mania: @TheOscar, these tales are charming if true, but beware, they are almost at the level where some in here may call u out as a troll, or a clown if youre lucky
	10:16am TDK60: Alice shall please all..
	10:16am βrian: Cat has found lap ...
	10:19am poo-mania: itll be almost Criminal now is Scott doesny ask Jason about Bobo n Scruffy.
	10:21am The Oscar: I promise these are all true (and they're not even the craziest stories!). I have friends who worked at Tower Records in Cambridge who also had to deal with him. He was something of a scourge for a while there. I think he finally got banned a year or two after I quit.
	10:21am βrian: Got my diving phins on.
	10:23am Barney Grubbs: Jaye P. Morgan also featured on an episode of the Muppet Show www.youtube.com...
	10:23am JakeGould: @KrysO: Exactly. But hey, what do I know.
	10:24am mb: oh Jaimie Branch. Maybe i delay turning myself in to the police until this afternoon.
	10:24am Chris from DC: Wow, this.
	10:24am TDK60: this stuff should be climbing the WFMU charts.
	10:25am steveo: could have used another 20 minutes of this
	10:25am coelacanth∅: Oscar, anyone who's worked with the public -or gets out of the house now & then, knows there's nothing unbelievable about your tales. especially in specific markets, like book stores; health food stores, etc.
	10:25am steveo: oh good, it's still going
	10:26am TDK60: ..are these folks tryin' to whip us into a frenzied trance?
	10:26am coelacanth∅: JG -1.
	10:27am Chris from DC: Into the Bandcamp wish list that goes.
	10:27am The Oscar: @coelacanth Oh, for sure. I went on to work at an actual record store for many years, which had a similar (and slightly overlapping) rogue's gallery, but B&N had a special breed.
	10:29am JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: Can you clarify your -1? Me asking about bands or me +1ing KrysO’s comment about trolls on the chat-comments thing-a-ma-jig.
	10:30am JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: “Oscar, anyone who's worked with the public—or gets out of the house now & then—knows there's nothing unbelievable about your tales.” This is really obnoxious for no reason. Oscar’s tales are valid and unique.
	10:31am coelacanth∅: yeah the health food stores had their own special breed as well.
	10:32am brick layer: feelin this one
	10:32am JakeGould: @TheOScar: Did you see this Improv Everywhere prank where they got Anton Chekov to do a reading at the old Barnes and Noble on 23rd and 6th Avenue in Manhattan? SO GOOD! youtu.be...
	10:32am TDK60: ..hats off to all WFMU staff -normal & weirdo- for forging ahead.
	10:32am poo-mania: Jake forgot his tablets
	10:34am steveo: just got written up by my supervisor for "chair boogie"
	10:34am The Oscar: @JG Oh man-- bookmarking that for lunchbreak viewing!
	10:35am coelacanth∅: Jake -the former. Jake - "you think this is really obnoxious, for no reason".
	10:36am Listener Gregory: I looked it up, and the Turiya song by Cyrille et al. was written by Smith. You're welcome.
	10:36am JakeGould: @coelacanth∅: Look, not all of us can be as world experienced as you.
	10:36am JakeGould: @TheOscar: It’s really amazing.
	10:37am The Oscar: @JG I think coel's comment was in response to poo-mania's earlier comment about potential doubt. It's all good :)
	10:37am randyfrommichigan: the current song album cover looks like my view today ... well without the mountains :)
	10:37am steveo: i think -1 was the number of bands?
	10:38am steveo: (ok now i'm the troll, please ignore me)
	10:39am Brendan: Lets all huddle up and group hug. , If for no other reason than its freezing outside. And no pervy clown groping.
	10:40am JakeGould: @Brendan: No. @steveo: Now that burn is keeping me warm!
	10:40am TDK60: ..if all else fails, we could talk about the music. or meditate or both..
	10:41am ben abs: This comments board was better when it focussed on pastries ;)
	10:42am davefromtoronto: hey randyfrommichigan- can i get a whoop-whoop?
	10:45am TDK60: ben abs- that's it! we'll bring in an Englishman to referee.
	10:45am coelacanth∅: Oscar (@10.37) Thank you. thought it was obvious.
	10:47am yippie: ew ah
	10:47am TDK60: ..sorry, Welsh!
	10:48am mb: This is shopping for licorice music. I can feel the floorboards creaking below my feet.
	10:48am yippie: MANX
	10:48am TDK60: Sun Ra's truly climbing the WFMU charts, it's out of this world.
	10:50am randyfrommichigan: @davefromtoronto whoop WHOOP!
	10:51am ben abs: hahahaha - TDK60! - Correct!
	10:51am davefromtoronto: HEY NOW!!!

	11:19am Passaic River Blues: @Listener Gregory: absolutely. Props to Rachel Herman.
	11:19am Ken From Hyde Park: Blah, I hope the Bandcamp link I posted isn't referring to some other band. Sorry if it caused confusion.
	11:21am ?: great band!
	11:22am TDK60: ..you can see "Kudu" album info on their label site- International Anthem records.
	11:22am The Oscar: Agreed-- great set, and the sound is amazing!
	11:23am coelacanth∅: Ken, it is. strange there're 2 bands named anteloper. that one's from the uk.
	11:26am coelacanth∅: (i mean, it's not "x", or "charlatans"... how'd they both come up with "anteloper"?!)
