	2:17pm Dave Sewelson: my barber won't cut my hair any longer
	2:18pm Jeff Golick: You think you're nervous; look at my photo.
	2:19pm Sem: Hey, hey, it's Dave and Free World music. Hello to you, and all.
	2:19pm northguineahills: Classic Cecil! Saw some good noise and DIY pop last night. Got invited to a party in a few weeks at some guys place where all of the entertainment will be only artists using modular analog synths. My cup of tea (wait, I'm drinking yerba mate).
	🥁 2:24pm fred: @ngh: sounds great! I'm gig deprived at the moment (no thanks to the local transit strike), but I'm going to a couple of shows this week, and if I have to walk there and back I will.
	2:24pm coelacanth∅: nice coming home to classic Cecil
	2:25pm coelacanth∅: -hi Dave and Elliot and free worldlings
	2:26pm Dave Sewelson: Hey Sem and ngh and sealy
	2:26pm Dave Sewelson: ngh i am drinking gyokuro as i type
	2:30pm chresti: Hello free world!
	2:31pm coelacanth∅: i sometimes forget that Cecil Taylor was really my introduction to "free jazz". i'd heard the name and that's all; found 3 albums (conquistador, stereodrive and Love for sale) cheap in an antique barn. i sometimes say David S Ware let me in but these albums came a few years earlier to me. rest in peace. (both of them)
	🥁 2:32pm fred: @ngh: any news on the job front?
	2:36pm coelacanth∅: hey chresti
	2:37pm holland oats: hello freeworlders
	2:39pm doctorjazz: Hi Free Worlders! Nice to hear Cecil's sweeping, crashing tones (I believe this was my first "free jazz" purchase as well...i had newly discovered jazz, and was taken by a knowledgeable so-worker to J,&R Music, held my arms out, and he piled on albums he said I needed).
	2:41pm chresti: Hi coel
	2:42pm doctorjazz: (I had heard some on The Smithsonian Collection off Classic Jazz, though)
	🥁 2:42pm fred: @doctorjazz: piling on records "he" said you needed? Is that a nice origin story or shifting blame in case the missus reads this?
	2:44pm Dave Sewelson: chresti holland and doctor.......
	2:44pm chresti: haha fred
	2:45pm doctorjazz: @Fred, no blame intended, he gave be a great introduction to important albums/artists. I picked up the record buying on my own after that.
	2:46pm doctorjazz: (The missus knew what she was getting into...)
	2:46pm Dave Sewelson: www.elliottlevin.com
	🥁 2:53pm WR: Hi all. I'm here for a taste of that Eternal Youth.
	2:55pm Dave Sewelson: WR you will live forever
	🥁 2:56pm fred: Hey! Why the diss about cold shower in that bio? I only take cold showers. Jolt me awake. Then again, so does free jazz, so maybe Dr Chadbourne has a point
	3:00pm Dave Sewelson: cold shower? wha?
	3:01pm David J: Pretty nice birthday!
	3:03pm northguineahills: We need more alliterative alert analog allegories of audio awesomeness aural assemblies agnomen ad-nomen!
	🥁 3:03pm fred: @Dave: I already said I'd walk long miles for a show, so why pretend I'm sane?
	3:04pm Dave Sewelson: goldenfest.org
	3:05pm northguineahills: @fred: Try taking a cold shower when the boiler in your building is out and the ambient temperature outside is 12 F/-11C and indoors is 38F/3C and the water was the same temperature. After a week of that, my health suffered. (My wife was more smart, and showered at her gym).
	3:07pm David J: Artists Space 11 Cortlandt Alley 2-8 pm
	3:09pm Jeff Golick: I voluntEAR.
	🥁 3:11pm fred: @ngh: I sure wouldn't enjoy that
	3:14pm Doug Schulkind: Free the World and your ass will follow!
	🥁 3:16pm WR: I always do cold for the last few minutes of my showers. Refreshing.
	3:16pm Dave Sewelson: Steve Dalachinsky Artists Space 11 Cortlandt Alley 2-8 pm
	3:17pm chresti: Me too, cold rinse.
	🥁 3:19pm WR: VolunEAR? hell, I pay for the privilege to hear this. Sadly, after expenses there isn't even gas money for the guests and the hosts pay their own electricity bills.
	3:21pm northguineahills: @fred: we were glad we got a new landlord that gave half a shit about the building infrastructure (emphasis on half).
	3:22pm Dave Sewelson: Sign up to get the daily schedule on the drummer stream tinyletter.com...
	3:23pm Dave Sewelson: Doug snuck in the window
	3:24pm northguineahills: @Dave: been signed in since day 1 (ask the DrummerSomeMan…)
	🥁 3:24pm fred: @ngh: half sucks, but still beats none. How did the latest interview go?
	3:25pm Dave Sewelson: ngh...i figured...my radio boss wants me to talk up the daily mailing.....
	3:26pm Jim Ryan: I'ma come inna da door . . . jim
	3:26pm northguineahills: went well, they were more interested in the big picture rather then trivial minutia, and my freelance/subcontractor recent background. I should find out soon. I have more interviews coming next week. Thanks.
	3:27pm Dave Sewelson: Elliot sez Hi Jim
	3:28pm northguineahills: I miss the Ethical Society...(well, and my nyc nostalgia).
	🥁 3:28pm fred: @ngh: a big picture focus sound good, and promising
	3:29pm Dave Sewelson: This one is the Philadelphia Ethical
	🥁 3:30pm WR: @NGH got everything crossed for you. Hope you land a good one.
	🥁 3:32pm WR: Thanks for to taste Mr. Levin. What's new?
	🥁 3:33pm fred: @ngh: Sounds unfair that when you land a job, we'll be celebrating while you have to go to work
	🥁 3:35pm WR: I've come in late, so maybe you already said something about it, but Mr. Levin, can you comment on anything about any of the Philly Soul sessions you participated in?
	3:44pm northguineahills: @fred: I have some near minimum wage backup plans, but you'd think I'd have an easier way to pay my grad student loans and medical debt back. I'm starting to think this move to FL for a lower cost of living and to be closer to my aging parents may not have been my long-term interest.
	🥁 3:50pm fred: @ngh: don't second guess, it's a waste of time. What matters is what's ahead. Still a good thing to have a backup plan. A solid, if meager base is better than none, as you said about a landlord who gave half a shit as apposed to none
	🥁 3:51pm fred: I meant "opposed", not "apposed"
	🥁 3:57pm fred: @ngh: Point is, you're not desperate (they smell that, and the only places that want desperate people are places you should avoid). This is not a charity act on either side, so figure out or outright ask how you would be profitable for them. You would be, make that clear
	4:01pm northguineahills: @fred: merci pour le conseil
	4:03pm northguineahills: I stepped out and missed a King Britt Remix. I saw him live a few times in the 90s (and once in 2005). Very hit or miss, the hits are rather solid....
	🥁 4:11pm fred: @ngh: and many thanks for the heads-up about the Lea Bertucci/Amirtha Kidambi set! That was great, they mentioned a possible Europe tour, I hope they stop nearby
	4:18pm David J: Sun Ra tune?
	🥁 4:25pm WR: Elliott Levin time, plus giving the drummer a lot
	4:27pm Dave Sewelson: David J...yup
	4:31pm northguineahills: My I-Ching went missing when I moved to FL, I miss it,,,,
	4:32pm northguineahills: (book version in English)(I don't know much of contemporary Mandarin, let alone classical Chinese).
	4:35pm northguineahills: It's 74F/23C here in central FL... (I hate warm winters).
	4:36pm G3rman: Andele viva Gabriel
	4:40pm chresti: I hate warm winters, too.
	🥁 4:44pm fred: I'm ambivalent with poetry in jazz. When the voice is an instrument, I'm all for it. When meaning dominates, it gets into the wrong kind of preaching and I tune out
	4:46pm northguineahills: @fred: for me, it's hit or miss, but the later predominates my assessment (the former did in the last, but, then again, I have a hard time hearing speech/lyrics devoid of context of the original context unless I'm focusses on the words).
	🥁 4:53pm fred: Then again, I'm not sure what jazz is, apart from something that happens, but other things do too
	4:53pm David J: Thanks Dave & Elliot!
	4:54pm Dave Sewelson: Thanks all you listeners...
	4:54pm Dave Sewelson: Coming up wfmu.org...
	🥁 4:54pm fred: Thanks Dave!
	4:55pm chresti: Thanks Dave and Elliot!
	4:55pm Dave Sewelson: thanks for sticking with us fred
	4:57pm Dave Sewelson: chresti...thanks for hanging out
	4:58pm northguineahills: happy thanks, Dave, Elliot and friends!
	4:59pm Dave Sewelson: ngh...thanks....
	4:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Dave! Thanks Elliot! tchau
	4:59pm Dave Sewelson: gnight all
	🥁 5:00pm fred: You're welcome Dave (though I might not pledge to your show because I already did and I like to support new DJs)
