Listener comments!
	8:01pm ultradamno: Becky! Tonkies!
	8:02pm mariano: Becky, crew, tonkers. I heard this was the most booze-soaked, lowdown, roadhouse dive east of the Mississippi.
	8:04pm ultradamno: So....Wanda!
	8:05pm Becky: @ultradamno, naturellement
	8:06pm loveless: Hey, all. Love this E. Jackson song.
	8:09pm adamp: Hi, friends! Ahh, love Wanda. Had the privilege to see her perform in the not too distant past. So fun.
	8:10pm Becky: Was supposed to be seeing Nick Cave in Nashville this fall - that was cancelled, obviously. Along with Bauhaus at Radio City this Friday.
	8:12pm Bootsie: Ahhhh, we've lost you up here in Putnam County!
	8:12pm P-90: Howdy, Miz Becky and Tonkers
	8:12pm Bootsie: 91.9
	8:12pm Bootsie: OK, it's back.... yayyyy!
	8:13pm P-90: How the heck is it Wednesday already...?
	8:13pm adamp: I had Nick Cave tickets for Barclays, also canceled. Finally splurged for decent seats too. Those arena shows are... not ideal. Sad it was canceled, though
	8:14pm slugluv1313: good evening, Becky, Honky Tonk Skeletone, everyone!
	8:15pm Becky: Yeah @adamp, I was meant to see him at the Opry. Which would have been fun for HTRG reasons!
	8:15pm Becky: Also, sorry, guys, the alphabet is hard.
	8:16pm adamp: Wow! That would have been amazing. Some day....
	8:17pm Paul in the OC: Oof—lost you for a song on WMFU but gotcha back. I think Wanda Jackson shredded the wires & blew a CXM-95 tube!! Great selection to-nite!
	8:18pm slugluv1313: @ Becky, adamp -- right??? i did not have tickets for anything, but friends had tickets for the now-cancelled (postponed?) Neubauten show -- November, i think and omg Nick Cave at The Opry -- that woould have been AMAZING!!!
	8:19pm Scott Williams: thee best sweater! and the pic really captures all its texture
	8:21pm Becky: I did get to meet Nick Cave in the British Airways executive lounge at Heathrow (long story). He's everything you would hope him to be.
	8:23pm Scott Williams: I got to watch Nick Cave dance like a loony at a Suicide show awhile back - all flailing arms and shakey legs, you're right, he does not disappoint!
	8:24pm Gaylord Fields: They never name Gaylord. :(
	8:25pm Becky: Gaylord, I will remake this song and it will be called "Gaylorded."
	8:25pm adamp: Ha! Hope to hear the long version some day
	8:25pm Gaylord Fields: Oh, Becky, you are a true friend!
	8:27pm Becky: @Scott, I once danced with Joe Jackson at a Skatalites show and he was similarly lanky, dressed in black, and excellent!
	8:28pm slugluv1313: i met Mr. Cave at a book signing at Tower Books in the 90s (before i was working there) -- super sweet guy -- unfortunately the friend i was with decided to kinda flirt with him -- "oooo I am a writer too!" etc. she cooed -- and i just wanted to go disappear somehwere, hah!
	8:29pm Becky: George, stop slut shaming and go ride your mower drunk.
	8:30pm Uncle Michael: good evening
	8:30pm adamp: I don’t have a meeting Nick Cave story... with my luck, I was probably gonna meet him at the now canceled Barclays show.
	8:30pm loveless: Apparently, I lead a boring life having never met Nick Cave.
	8:30pm BH: I was sorta disappointed that the lawnmower wasn't mentioned in the Ken Burns docu (unless I totally forgot it)
	8:31pm Uncle Michael: I was covering Lollapalooza one year, shooting from the pit, and Nick dripped sweat on me.
	8:31pm Becky: Grandpa Jones is here to make sure YOU ARE AWAKE
	8:31pm slugluv1313: ahhhh i was wondering where George was!
	8:31pm adamp: @uncle Michael - that definitely counts
	8:31pm Fuzzy: I should smoke a J while listening to tonight's show.
	8:31pm Scott Williams: @Becky, whoah! I danced "with" Molly Ringwald at a Jonathan Richmond show once - didn't realize who it was til she turned around
	8:31pm Hackensack Slim: Always Great to hear a George Jones song I haven't heard before. Thanks Becky.
	8:32pm Scott Williams: she danced very much like her characters dance, unmistakable
	8:32pm Uncle Michael: the Breakfast Club dance, Scott?
	8:33pm Todd-a-o: Lordy have mercy shoot I love your show!

	8:34pm Scott Williams: @UM, bingo!
	8:34pm ultradamno: No Nick Cave story, but I have beaten on metal with Julia Cafritz and John Hammill of Pussy Galore though. And that was after the show was over

	8:42pm Dan in exile: Hank Williams
	8:42pm Scott Williams: for ToT fill-in, some songs with explosions - Dukes of Stratosphere's "My Love Explodes" is a good un
	8:43pm Bootsie: @Scott W great idea! I nominate "Biff, Bang, Pow"
	👻 8:43pm Mr. Fine Wine: Dukes of Strasophear! I bought that when it came out and haven't listened to it since about one year after it came out
	👻 8:44pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yes, definitely needs some songs that invoke Todd's Pow Pow Pow ethos.
	8:44pm Ira: Was away from the laptop for a few minutes, so apologies at this less-than-timely Comment. But I couldn't live with myself if I didn't let the WFMU community know that the one time I attended the Opry (Opryland, not the Ryman), I found myself at the urinal next to the one being used by Grandpa Jones.

	8:53pm ultradamno: Sleepy LaBeef snubbed?
	8:53pm phat: The Belairs from Colombia, MO do an amazing version of T for Texas. Damn I miss going to shows.
	8:53pm P-90: “...equipment”(?!!!)
	8:54pm Choggie: When you make it to 'Q' maybe something from that Suzi Quatro country album?!
