	👻 12:07am Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, rich and Tamar and transparent squirrel covers.
	12:08am Kat in Chicago: hallo
	12:09am coelacanth∅: i planted a weeping beech on my sister's property 10 years ago and it was >thrice the size and looking beautiful when we had to say goodbye to it a few months ago, when she sold the property. we grew up climbing and hanging out in an enormous weeping beech in the summers out on long island
	12:10am Bri The Beatnik: Hey Everybody
	12:10am rich: Welcome Ken and Kat
	12:11am Bri The Beatnik: Loving this Jazz
	12:12am coelacanth∅: 'sure is a peppy version!
	12:13am Tamar: Hello, all.
	12:14am Kat in Chicago: Hi Tamar!
	12:14am rich: coel this is “from a 1968 concert for racial unity organised,against the odds, by a 16-year-old Danny Scher at his high school in Palo Alto, California.”
	12:15am rich: hello tamar
	12:15am Bri The Beatnik: Hey Tamar!
	12:16am Kat in Chicago: how the heck did a kid get Monk to play at his school?!
	12:17am Bri The Beatnik: Wow!
	12:18am Scott67: Inspiring stuff!!
	12:19am coelacanth∅: hi Tamar
	12:20am rich: kat here’s a review that touches on the story but doesn’t get too detailed pitchfork.com...
	12:21am coelacanth∅: whoa, really cool rich! -and maybe that's why he played it peppier... for the chillun
	12:21am Tamar: The Danny Scher story here: https://thesixfifty.com/the-palo-alto-record-how-a-high-schooler-a-janitor-and-thelonius-monk-made-local-history-700b937f5796
	12:21am Scott67: Just watching PBS News Hour,on our foriegn network Sending love & humanity to my US friends. ✌❤🌏
	12:22am Bri The Beatnik: I didn’t know you could get PBS over there Scott!
	12:25am Scott67: We are very outward looking, & more globally aware than most Americans Bri.
	12:26am Bri The Beatnik: That’s cool Scott! I listen to a lot of the BBC often
	12:26am Kat in Chicago: Wow, GREAT story, Tamar and Rich (both links should be followed). I'm glad the music finally got released.
	12:28am Kat in Chicago: Thanks, Scott67, and it's true that we Americans often lack awareness beyond our borders.
	12:29am Scott67: BBCAE is great. Australia has its National broadcaster ABC. And SBS. But the commercial stations are variable in their veracity. We also sadly have sky & Fox (cable). Rupert Murdoch is Australian, so we're not guilty free.
	12:29am rich: the robin kelley monk biography is highly recommended kat
	12:29am Tamar: Thelonious Monk went to my high school.
	12:30am Bri The Beatnik: Woah Tamar!
	12:30am Kat in Chicago: noted, rich; Tamar, wow!
	12:31am Kat in Chicago: I'm not a big jazz person but Monk has always connected with me for some reason
	12:31am Scott67: Bri, okay auto correct now says BBC is BBCAE?? Think I will swap tabs, dropped this one yesterday now it has amnesia I think.
	12:32am Bri The Beatnik: Monk was one of the first artists that I first got into of Jazz
	12:32am coelacanth∅: Thanks for the links you both.
	12:32am Bri The Beatnik: I figured you meant BBC Scott
	12:33am Bri The Beatnik: I’ve been listening to bbc radio 4 mostly lately
	12:34am mariano: Hey rich, Crew, squirrels!
	12:34am Bri The Beatnik: Have any of you heard the Ultimate Beatnik collection compilation albums?
	12:34am Bri The Beatnik: Hey Mariano!
	12:35am coelacanth∅: Monk was my first "cool" jazz. Benny Goodman was 1st. Dave Brubeck might've been before Monk.
	12:36am coelacanth∅: 'sup mariano
	12:36am Bri The Beatnik: Oh yeah, Glen Miller for me
	12:37am Kat in Chicago: Not familiar with those, Bri. coel, my parents had "Take Five" so I got exposed to Brubeck as a tiny tot :)
	12:39am Bri The Beatnik: Al Jazzbo Collins!!
	12:39am Bri The Beatnik: Ah yes, “Take Five” was another one of the songs that got me into Jazz
	12:39am Kat in Chicago: Jazz Mass sounds cooler than the Folk Masses I participated in in the 70s!
	12:40am rich: hello mariano so have you seen any of these “house floats” that are popping up in your hometown www.nola.com...
	12:40am coelacanth∅: Kat i'm pretty sure i'd heard take five before my brother got a Monk album; but - even though he was cool, he's often not thought of as cool. i guess because he had mainstream success.
	12:44am Tamar: Coel, just the Dave Brubeck Time Out album cover alone is cool. But I get the cool distinction.
	12:45am Kat in Chicago: The Time Out cover art made a huge impression on six-year-old me.
	12:47am rich: kat i’m sure a folk mass would be cooler than a soft jazz mass unless it led to an audience sing-along of kumbaya
	12:48am mariano: Heya Bri, coela!
	12:48am Kat in Chicago: Oh, Kumbaya was on the set list more than once! and so were even worse songs.
	12:51am mariano: rich: Actually, no, have only read about the house floats. The ones in the article are uptown (haven't been venturing far from home lately), wondering if there will be any where I am (the Marigny) and next door in the Quarter. I've been celebrating Carnival by overeating, lol.
	12:54am rich: kumbaya always reminds me of boring hippie music teachers with acoustic guitars in second and third grade along with the utter waste of time known as sunday school
	12:54am Kat in Chicago: rich: accurate!
	12:55am coelacanth∅: "the magic garden"
	12:56am Kat in Chicago: I was in one kind of cool choir in junior high, which had some bluegrass musicians in it. but otherwise folk choir was super lame.
	12:58am coelacanth∅: www.tvparty.com...
	1:01am rich: Tusk TV: Tusk Virtual Festival (performances back to 2012) through 02/28/21 www.youtube.com...

	1:01am coelacanth∅: ...still i'd stomach boring folk music far better than "smooth jazz".
	1:03am mariano: coela: TV party tonight! TV party tonight!
	1:04am rich: mariano, i love the idea of artists being paid to create house floats it’s much more interesting than the paint the plastic cow (or horse or cat or some other critter) for charity
	1:04am Bri The Beatnik: Coel: TV PARTY TONGIHT!!!
	1:05am coelacanth∅: i like Aoife Nessa Frances' voice and it reminds me of Katell Keineg's
	1:05am Kat in Chicago: Chicago has done the plastic cows and horses and they are pretty awful
	1:05am scobot: This Frances track reminds me of Lætitia Sadier side projects.
	1:05am Tamar: With you, coel. “Smooth jazz” makes me wince. Seems unfair to the rest of jazz.
	1:05am coelacanth∅: haha -isn't that a black flag song?
	1:06am Bri The Beatnik: Yup!
	1:07am coelacanth∅: Tamar boring folk is just boring, but smooth jazz is an abomination!
	1:08am coelacanth∅: (maybe because i like good folk music, but i LOVE good jazz music)
	1:13am rich: tamar you know how i feel about smooth jazz but you’ve never sat in someone’s living room once a week for a year singing kumbaya with a bunch of six year olds almost all of whom were bored except for the little girl whose mom taught sunday school and was thrilled by the sound of her own voice. my memory doesn’t remember what it exactly sounded like but i know it started me on my path to where my beliefs currently are.
	1:16am Bri The Beatnik: I was the rare kind that actually liked Kumbaya
	1:18am Kat in Chicago: I'm kumbayoutta here, good night all!
	1:19am rich: it needs a better arrangement maybe some horns some shouting some life
	1:19am mariano: coela: Yup. "We got nothing better to do/than watch TV and have a couple of brews!" Of course, all the shows they name are from the late 70s/early 80s. rich: Yeah, it's a great idea. I'm bummed there's no Mardi Gras, of course, it's one of the very few times it's been called off, but I love the creativity going into finding ways to celebrate safely. 'Night, Kat!
	1:19am coelacanth∅: i think i was a teenager before i'd ever heard of kumbaya, and to this day i don't think i've heard the whole song.
	1:19am Bri The Beatnik: Night Kat!
	1:19am rich: goodnight kat
	1:20am Scott67: Sweet dreams Kat.
	1:20am Bri The Beatnik: Kumbaya gives me warm fuzzies of my childhood sorry
	1:21am mariano: To me the difference between folk and smooth jazz is that there's some incredible folk, but there's not even vaguely good smooth jazz. The only thing it's good for is as the theme song of some failed Cosby TV pilot. I had a friend back in the early 90s who was really into Kenny G and MC Hammer (he knew how to pick 'em). I had to sit there while he played this one KG song, describing to me how it made him feel like his soul was soaring above the clouds. Wasn't gonna rain on his parade, he was a super nice guy, but man, that was torture.
	1:21am Kat in Chicago: no apologies needed, Bri :)
	1:21am rich: nothing to be sorry about bri
	1:22am mariano: Shouldn't even be called jazz, what did real jazz do to deserve that?! There was this old big-band guy, Preston Love, that had a radio show. He said Kenny G was to jazz what Mr. T was to acting, lol.
	1:23am coelacanth∅: mariano i have it on a cassette somewhere, from my early days taping off wfmu ... hill street blues, 3's company, dallas!...(?)
	1:23am coelacanth∅: it's okay Bri. i love herman's hermits!
	1:24am mariano: coela: It was in "Repo Man" too.
	1:24am coelacanth∅: 'night Kat
	1:24am Bri The Beatnik: I love Herman’s Hermits too Coel!
	1:25am Bri The Beatnik: More warm fuzzies from childhood 🥰
	1:26am slugluv1313: good evening, Rich and Skeletons and Squirrels! happy to be here with y'all on this windy stormy rainy night :)
	1:26am rich: i had a friend in college who had three cds: the eagles greatest hits, the sound of music soundtrack, and chicago’s greatest hits. he had great hash though
	1:26am mariano: Herman's Hermits are great! They even made a movie named after "Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter," and the opening track, "It's Nice to Be out in the Morning" is one of my favorite British-Invasion tracks. Heya slugluv!
	1:27am coelacanth∅: yes mariano @122 -as Tamar said... and it's NOT jazz.
	1:27am coelacanth∅: okay i guess herman's hermits wasn't the best example!
	1:28am mariano: rich: Lol! Hash makes up for a lot. I had these friends when I was a kid in Honduras, and sometimes in the summer I'd go stay at their house for like a week at a time. Once my grandma sent me over with a VHS of "Sound of Music," and they liked it so much that they watched it twice a day for over a week, it was excruciating!
	1:28am rich: good evening slugluv
	1:28am coelacanth∅: i don't know what's "lame" music in wfmuland! hi slugluv
	1:29am Bri The Beatnik: That’s true Coel!
	1:29am slugluv1313: @Bri -- re: Kumbaya -- same here! my Mom LOVED that song, but i never really knew what it was about until many years later -- fast forward to going to protests, and hearing others say stuff like "well it's not like we are gonna hold hands and sing 'Kumbaya'" etc. -- i got what they were saying, but geez, HATED that they were dissing "Kumbaya"
	1:29am mariano: Christopher Plummer refers to it as "The Sound of Mucus" to this day. I liked it well enough as a kid till my friends subjected me to the "Clockwork Orange" treatment with it.
	1:33am coelacanth∅: a book i'm about to finish depicts Julie Andrews "listing" her favorite things in the background of an over-the-top love-making scene!
	1:38am rich: i think overexposure to anything can lead to a lack of interest in something that you once enjoyed or cause you to never develop an interest in something that you might enjoy. though there are some things that one listen, one viewing, one read, one taste, you will avoid like the plague
	1:38am slugluv1313: hiya coelacanthø! hah! re: lame music, recalling Michele with One L playing The Backstreet Boys' "I Want It That Way" as a not-so-guilty pleasure (as it is with me) -- and apparently many other WFMU listeners too, and totally gag-inducing to many others :) reminded me of a dude i dated about 20 years ago, that song was playing when he was telling me how much he LOVED Lite-FM, because "I know I am always going to hear something familiar" etc. . . . the "relationship" did not last long
	1:39am Bri The Beatnik: I bet
	1:40am Bri The Beatnik: I couldn’t date a guy who liked backstreet boys
	1:40am Bri The Beatnik: Let alone “familiar music”
	1:42am Bri The Beatnik: I smoke Sunny D?
	1:42am coelacanth∅: slugluv if i were listening to Michele's show at that moment i would've turned it off with haste!
	1:42am slugluv1313: @ rich -- TOTALLY re: overexposure, when i was a kid/teenager growing up in NJ, Bruce Springsteen was sorta bubbling under, then started to get famous -- i thought, "cool! local boy makes good!" . . . THEN i went to college -- Rutgers/New Brunswick, and you could not get AWAY from BRUCE . . . by the time i graduated, i was totally hating Springsteen
	1:43am Bri The Beatnik: My mom didn’t even know who Brice Springsteen was when she was in high school!
	1:44am Bri The Beatnik: *Bruce
	1:44am rich: i went on a date with a woman once who told me the only music she could listen to was tuck and patti. i smiled, paid for dinner, and went home
	1:47am coelacanth∅: i grew to despise Springsteen's music... while liking HIM. there were boys in high school that seemed to literally worship him. (and i literally mean literally) i eventually realised he writes good songs but the arrangements are hard for me to take. i like the nebraska album because it was just a demo that got released.
	1:48am slugluv1313: @ Bri -- hah! was not the Backstreet Boys, but the whole Lite FM thing -- BARF! even worse, his "go to" song for dealing with stress, anxiety, etc., was "Tomorrow" from "Annie" (a song which makes me CRINGE no matter what) -- he was explaining this to me and started singing it when we were riding the F train one afternoon, and as much as i TRIED to be accepting, non-judgemental, open-minded, etc., i STILL found it next to impossible to keep myself from gagging
	1:48am Bri The Beatnik: I can’t tell you how many times my Dax would play Bruce Springsteen for me and I didn’t even like it
	1:49am slugluv1313: @ rich -- omg that is HYSTERICAL!!!!!
	1:50am slugluv1313: @coela -- yeah, years later and now i can listen to Bruce and appreciate him -- but yeah, it was like all the frat boys worshipped him
	1:51am rich: springsteen definitely can have that effect. when i was at rutgers i was surrounded sophomore year by a bunch of guys who loved king crimson (which i do) but they also loved playing air guitar to every song over and over again and it took me a few years to eliminate the connection between their grinning faces and the music. freshman year i knew someone who only played harry chapin; you can only feel sorry for someone like that.
	1:51am coelacanth∅: wnew-fm had a morning guy who would serve up "Bruce juice in the morning" while i got ready for school. that, southside johnny, and the many adverts for the us army are the main things that drove me toward wfmu.
	1:51am Bri The Beatnik: I appreciate his earlier work, but everytime Dad played me “The River” it just depressed me
	1:53am Bri The Beatnik: I could really relate to some of his songs like Thunder road
	1:54am Bri The Beatnik: Dad asked me the other day what my favorite Harry Chaplin song was, never got into him
	1:54am slugluv1313: thanks again, rich, for all the links to the amazing stuff going on -- WOW!
	1:55am coelacanth∅: Harry Chapin was a decent lyricist but man he bored the hell outa me!
	1:55am Bri The Beatnik: I agree Coel
	1:56am coelacanth∅: i've heard of tuck and patty but that's the extent of it
	1:56am slugluv1313: TV PARTY TONIGHT!!!!! and yes, except for Hill Street Blues, i watched those shows back then
	1:57am Bri The Beatnik: I never heard of them
	1:57am Bri The Beatnik: My Creative writing teacher told me about Tv party
	1:58am NikiA: hey guys remember chips....chips....chips....
	1:58am coelacanth∅: i understand tv party but it never applied to me
	2:00am coelacanth∅: hi Niki ...i was always the one that didn't want the tv on

	2:00am slugluv1313: UGH re: "Smooth Jazz" -- at one of my jobs, one of the typesetters played CD 101.9FM (one of WPIX radio's incarnations, IIRC) in the shop -- it was kinda a new thing, and he would go on and on about "Smooth Jazz" and how much he LOVED it (again, i was TRYING to be accepting and trying not to BARF)
	2:01am rich: coel that should remain the extent
	2:01am Bri The Beatnik: Tv party sounds right up my alley
	2:02am rich: the chips song was pretty great and 5 hours of it makes for a decent party if you’re blasting it out into the backyard
	2:05am coelacanth∅: (i don't know this chips song y'all been talking about for hours now)
	2:05am Hubig Pie: I've just turned in to some beautiful sounds
	2:05am Bri The Beatnik: It was on Abbie’s show
	2:06am mariano: slugluv: If you hate "Tomorrow," there's a scene in "Serial Mom" that'll be right up your alley: Kathleen Turner bludgeoning a woman to death with a leg of lamb while singing along to it.
	2:06am coelacanth∅: oh. i was otherwise tuned until the last hour.
	2:07am Bri The Beatnik: Same
	2:07am rich: good morning hubig
	2:08am Hubig Pie: Serial Mom had proper seasonal fashion sense
	2:10am northguineahills: ,,,,and it wasn't C.H.I.P.s or Hot Chip.... made the mistake of setting my alarm and allowing my phone to be w/in arms reach. I overslept (I was trying to get a near normal sleeping schedule). Well, back from my walk. The streets are so much nicer w/o the tourists out (not all of them mask up, either)
	2:10am mariano: 'Sup, Hubig. Yeah, she knew not to wear white shoes after Labor Day. Unlike Patty Hearst.
	2:10am Tamar: Hubig Pie, I have seen those very white shoes.
	2:11am rich: hello ngh
	2:12am coelacanth∅: i confess to listening to some seriously lame "new age" music for a little while, when my occupation made it seem like a good idea... including faux native-american flute music. ugh. i didn't realise how bad it was until a coworker said something about those pretty synthesizers they had out there in the prairie!
	2:13am Bri The Beatnik: Hey NGH!
	2:14am Tamar: Oh no, faux flutes are even worse than real ones.
	2:15am slugluv1313: hiya mariano -- yeah, i was going to ask you about what was happening with Mardi Gras! bummer that it is not happening, but glad/relieved that safety and sanity prevails, and that people are being creative in spite of it all . . . me, i am trying to come up with some insane vegan-Voudon-King Cake concoction (kinda frustrating, 20 years ago, even 10 -- i would have been totally clueless about the "cake" part but would have known exactly what to do about the herbs, spices, etc., . . . ugh, i am SO out of "practice") . . . and all the recipes online are like the internet's version of tourist trap/crap (like EVERYTHING is all about overly dense/rich chocolate cakes) . . . but so far i am thinking of Vanilla Bean from Madagascar (Vanilla is so complex, IMHO -- always kills me that it is used as a diss), Saffron from Spain, Myers's Dark Rum, Plantation Blackstrap Molasses . . . and i have NO idea what else, hah!
	2:16am slugluv1313: @mariano -- ARRGGGGGHHHHHH Kenny G.?!?! i am so sorry you had to go through that TORTURE
	2:16am rich: celery would be a better diss than vanilla
	2:17am coelacanth∅: haha Tamar... i like flutes! (especially the shakuhachi) and i like traditional "native american" flute music. (occasionally) most of these were a real flutist accompanied by lameass synthesizers.
	2:17am Hubig Pie: Being a rube from the mountain west, John Waters schooled me on proper etiquette
	2:18am mariano: slugluv: Thanks. Three decades later, I've started to heal ;)
	2:19am rich: proper etiquette with john waters sounds like a great series
	2:20am coelacanth∅: kenny g trained me to loath alto saxophone in most pop music. (Bowie's "young americans" being a good example of a good song severely damaged by saxophone)
	2:20am coelacanth∅: ...but then, there was probably enough horrible 80s music with bad saxophone that i might've gotten to that without kenny g.
	2:22am slugluv1313: @rich -- Eagles and Chicago and Sound of Music?!?! YIKES!!! is this dude a serial killer now? (yeah, my Mom called it Sound of Mucus too, hah!) i am HOPING that he did not force you to listen to them (as one of the supervisors at Tower Outlet would do! he hated Chicago too, but i would be trying to eat my lunch, and he would throw on a Chicago CD -- or even worse, Peter Cetera)
	2:23am rich: but kenny g and john tesh take bad saxophone to a conceivably unsurpassable level
	2:23am Hubig Pie: U would surely tune into a John Waters etiquette show
	2:23am slugluv1313: @mariano -- i have the soundtrack to Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter -- such a sweet LP!
	2:24am mariano: There's a great Greek movie from the 70s called "Iphigenia," an adaptation of the play by Euripides. Irene Papas is in it as Clytemnestra. Iphigenia was the daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra whom the gods required be sacrificed so that the Trojan War could happen.
	2:24am mariano: slugluv: Yeah, isn't that a great soundtrack?
	2:25am mariano: "Iphigenia": en.wikipedia.org...
	2:25am Hubig Pie: I not U. I gots a new phone. Still working out the kinks
	2:25am slugluv1313: oh gawd, yes, i remember -- Bruce Juice, UGH
	2:26am northguineahills: salutations, friends! Being a rube from FL, cinema, music and art was my guide. When I moved to NYC, I had to confess I came from a not-so-diverse culture, please educate me on your background. Didn't take long before I caught up..... (let's see, w/ a graduating HS class of 600, 1 was Jewish, 5 were Catholic, 8 were Filipino (also Catholic) and the rest was the normal Southern demographic breakdown. Well, there was some LBGTB+ that were out, and show me the club scene, so, the first club I went to in college, was a gay club. (I'm cis-straight, but it's hard to find anything interesting in the South [you just need to know where to look])
	2:26am rich: slugluv last i heard he was still with apple; he was an early adopter and salesperson. he would occasionally put on the eagles but another friend and i would occasionally “force” him to listen to jazz, king crimson, eno.
	2:26am coelacanth∅: rich haha (@223) i guess they deserve some credit!
	2:28am slugluv1313: @coela -- that may have been Dave Herman??? the WNEW-FM DJ who was arrested for attempting to have sex with a child
	2:28am mariano: Oh, and in Euripides' play, Iphigenia is miraculously saved at the last minute by the gods. Kind of like the Abraham and Isaac story. The movie is more ambiguous but hints heavily that she was killed.
	2:28am northguineahills: wasn't artemis that demanded a sacrifice to make the winds blow as the Greek army was stranded due to lack of wind (or something like that).
	2:29am NikiA: I fucking love that I heard a bunch of weird shit, Shostakovich, and then a bunch more weird shit
	2:30am slugluv1313: @mariano -- DAMN! i saw Serial Mom, but do not recall that scene??? but yup, John Waters totally gets it :) (and i am kinda getting a kick out of his guest appearances on SVU!)
	2:31am coelacanth∅: yes, Dave Herman. - i never heard that little tidbit of tidbittery. but i do remember him saying things like, after playing "oliver's army" by Elvis Costello, "i don't know what Elvis is so angry about"... when fucking pos reagan was ... being reagan.
	2:32am NikiA: isn't that deus ex machina
	2:32am mariano: ngh: Yep, Agamemnon's men accidentally kill a lamb sacred to Artemis, and as punishment, the winds won't blow to take the ships to Troy. Also, I hear you about gay culture being an oasis even for straight people in the Bible Belt. When I was in north Louisiana (polar opposite of New Orleans), there was a really big overlap between the punk/alt and LGBT.

	2:41am mariano: slugluv: New Orleans is surprisingly vegan-friendly. A few bakeries do vegan king cakes, like this one: www.breadsonoak.com...
	2:41am slugluv1313: hiya Tamar! yes, possibly? i was in high school, the Bruce Juice thing may have been for evening drive time/rush hour too -- and yes, totally creeped me out when that story about Herman broke -- i mean, i never would have guessed anything like that about him at all (but, sadly, that is true of a LOT of these predators, they really know how to keep up "normal" appearances) . . . and he died while in prison in Essex County, BEFORE he went to trial!
	2:42am coelacanth∅: Niki have you tuned in to Bethany's show here on fmu? ("A440")
	2:43am coelacanth∅: she takes less-traveled avenues of classical music.
	2:44am slugluv1313: @mariano -- YES! Breads on Oak, i believe you have mentioned them before! i adore how they use an almond, instead of a plastic baby :) (and btw -- from an earlier playlist -- those baby pot-bellied pigs are ADORABLE!)
	2:46am northguineahills: @mariano: I joined the film club my freshman year as an undergrad. I was 18 when I saw my first Rocky Horror. Part of the fun was showing films that were otherwise banned in the USA (cue 2LiveCrew), including many explicit gay and artistic films, from the likes of Kenneth Anger and Jack Smith. We also showed Oshima's "In the Realm of the Senses", which the university objected to. We had a whole cinema, and where I first was exposed to jodorowsky....)
	2:51am NikiA: @Coel I think I have, but I'm still getting used to all the shows
	2:52am northguineahills: David Dichelle usually does one classical set, usually by artists I even had heard of on this Continental Subway on the wfmu Give the Drummer Some. When Kurt (miniature minotaurs) does fill-ins, he usually does an avant-classical set.
	2:52am rich: and that’s a wrap. as i slowly expel the helium out my nozzle let me thank you for listening and have a good, healthy, and safe week. eat, drink, be merry, leap beyond your normal bounds, free your ass, trail your mind while it follows, check your blind spots before merging, and always enjoy life even when it gives you reasons not to because it is constantly teaching and we are constantly learning (or should be). and thank you skeleton crew, we sing your praises.
	2:52am northguineahills: Thanks, Rich!
	2:53am mariano: That sounds amazing, ngh! I wish I'd discovered Kenneth Anger back then, I had to wait till my 20s. And oh yeah, was wondering about Kurt G the other day. slugluv: Yeah, those little piggies are adorable <3 Thanks, rich, always great to listen and gab on your watch. Thank you Crew, 'night everyone!
	👻 2:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, rich. Please recycle that helium as it's getting harder to come by.
	2:54am slugluv1313: wonderful wonderful show, Rich -- thanks so much! have a great weekend/week, everyone -- be well, stay safe!
	2:54am northguineahills: Most recently, Kurt has been doing fill-ins on GTDS, but I think he did two on the mothership as well.
	2:55am mariano: Good to know, ngh -- I should check out the other streams more, I get so set in my ways.
	2:56am NikiA: @Ceol now I remember, A440 is classical
	2:57am Bri The Beatnik: Mariano, I’ve just started listening to more of the mothership lately, before it was mostly Sheena’s and the Night Owl
	2:57am coelacanth∅: i haven't heard Kurt in a year.
	2:58am coelacanth∅: ...yes, his last fill-in was on march 5.
	2:59am coelacanth∅: Thanks Rich! 'night y'all
	2:59am Bri The Beatnik: Night Coel!
	2:59am coelacanth∅: Niki yes, tuesday at 8pm. 1 hour.

	12:04am Scott67: G'day Rich & squirrel pumpers. It's been too long!
	12:05am rich: coel beech trees are very photogenic though i will have to go shoot some more soon so they will be interrupted for a little while
	12:05am rich: hi scott67
	👻 12:07am Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, rich and Tamar and transparent squirrel covers.
	12:08am Kat in Chicago: hallo
	12:09am coelacanth∅: i planted a weeping beech on my sister's property 10 years ago and it was >thrice the size and looking beautiful when we had to say goodbye to it a few months ago, when she sold the property. we grew up climbing and hanging out in an enormous weeping beech in the summers out on long island
	12:10am Bri The Beatnik: Hey Everybody
	12:10am rich: Welcome Ken and Kat
	12:11am Bri The Beatnik: Loving this Jazz
	12:12am coelacanth∅: 'sure is a peppy version!
	12:13am Tamar: Hello, all.
	12:14am Kat in Chicago: Hi Tamar!
	12:14am rich: coel this is “from a 1968 concert for racial unity organised,against the odds, by a 16-year-old Danny Scher at his high school in Palo Alto, California.”
	12:15am rich: hello tamar
	12:15am Bri The Beatnik: Hey Tamar!
	12:16am Kat in Chicago: how the heck did a kid get Monk to play at his school?!
	12:17am Bri The Beatnik: Wow!
	12:18am Scott67: Inspiring stuff!!
	12:19am coelacanth∅: hi Tamar
	12:20am rich: kat here’s a review that touches on the story but doesn’t get too detailed pitchfork.com...
	12:21am coelacanth∅: whoa, really cool rich! -and maybe that's why he played it peppier... for the chillun
	12:21am Tamar: The Danny Scher story here: https://thesixfifty.com/the-palo-alto-record-how-a-high-schooler-a-janitor-and-thelonius-monk-made-local-history-700b937f5796
	12:21am Scott67: Just watching PBS News Hour,on our foriegn network Sending love & humanity to my US friends. ✌❤🌏
	12:22am Bri The Beatnik: I didn’t know you could get PBS over there Scott!
	12:25am Scott67: We are very outward looking, & more globally aware than most Americans Bri.
	12:26am Bri The Beatnik: That’s cool Scott! I listen to a lot of the BBC often
	12:26am Kat in Chicago: Wow, GREAT story, Tamar and Rich (both links should be followed). I'm glad the music finally got released.
	12:28am Kat in Chicago: Thanks, Scott67, and it's true that we Americans often lack awareness beyond our borders.
	12:29am Scott67: BBCAE is great. Australia has its National broadcaster ABC. And SBS. But the commercial stations are variable in their veracity. We also sadly have sky & Fox (cable). Rupert Murdoch is Australian, so we're not guilty free.
	12:29am rich: the robin kelley monk biography is highly recommended kat
	12:29am Tamar: Thelonious Monk went to my high school.
	12:30am Bri The Beatnik: Woah Tamar!
	12:30am Kat in Chicago: noted, rich; Tamar, wow!
	12:31am Kat in Chicago: I'm not a big jazz person but Monk has always connected with me for some reason
	12:31am Scott67: Bri, okay auto correct now says BBC is BBCAE?? Think I will swap tabs, dropped this one yesterday now it has amnesia I think.
	12:32am Bri The Beatnik: Monk was one of the first artists that I first got into of Jazz
	12:32am coelacanth∅: Thanks for the links you both.
	12:32am Bri The Beatnik: I figured you meant BBC Scott
	12:33am Bri The Beatnik: I’ve been listening to bbc radio 4 mostly lately
	12:34am mariano: Hey rich, Crew, squirrels!
	12:34am Bri The Beatnik: Have any of you heard the Ultimate Beatnik collection compilation albums?
	12:34am Bri The Beatnik: Hey Mariano!
	12:35am coelacanth∅: Monk was my first "cool" jazz. Benny Goodman was 1st. Dave Brubeck might've been before Monk.
	12:36am coelacanth∅: 'sup mariano
	12:36am Bri The Beatnik: Oh yeah, Glen Miller for me
	12:37am Kat in Chicago: Not familiar with those, Bri. coel, my parents had "Take Five" so I got exposed to Brubeck as a tiny tot :)
	12:39am Bri The Beatnik: Al Jazzbo Collins!!
	12:39am Bri The Beatnik: Ah yes, “Take Five” was another one of the songs that got me into Jazz
	12:39am Kat in Chicago: Jazz Mass sounds cooler than the Folk Masses I participated in in the 70s!
	12:40am rich: hello mariano so have you seen any of these “house floats” that are popping up in your hometown www.nola.com...
	12:40am coelacanth∅: Kat i'm pretty sure i'd heard take five before my brother got a Monk album; but - even though he was cool, he's often not thought of as cool. i guess because he had mainstream success.
	12:44am Tamar: Coel, just the Dave Brubeck Time Out album cover alone is cool. But I get the cool distinction.
	12:45am Kat in Chicago: The Time Out cover art made a huge impression on six-year-old me.
	12:47am rich: kat i’m sure a folk mass would be cooler than a soft jazz mass unless it led to an audience sing-along of kumbaya
	12:48am mariano: Heya Bri, coela!
	12:48am Kat in Chicago: Oh, Kumbaya was on the set list more than once! and so were even worse songs.
	12:51am mariano: rich: Actually, no, have only read about the house floats. The ones in the article are uptown (haven't been venturing far from home lately), wondering if there will be any where I am (the Marigny) and next door in the Quarter. I've been celebrating Carnival by overeating, lol.
	12:54am rich: kumbaya always reminds me of boring hippie music teachers with acoustic guitars in second and third grade along with the utter waste of time known as sunday school
	12:54am Kat in Chicago: rich: accurate!
	12:55am coelacanth∅: "the magic garden"
	12:56am Kat in Chicago: I was in one kind of cool choir in junior high, which had some bluegrass musicians in it. but otherwise folk choir was super lame.
	12:58am coelacanth∅: www.tvparty.com...
	1:01am rich: Tusk TV: Tusk Virtual Festival (performances back to 2012) through 02/28/21 www.youtube.com... Saturday various times Prototype Festival (last day) prototypefestival.org... 3pm The Wedding Present dice.fm... 6pm Zlatne Uste Golden Festival Day 2 zlatneuste.ticketspice.com... 8pm Thumbscrew (Mary Halvorson, Michael Formanek, Tomas Fujiwara) villagevanguard.com... 9pm Isaiah Collier and The Chosen Few www.constellation-chicago.com... 10pm Charles Lloyd online.cap.ucla.edu... 10pm Earthless www.stageit.com... Sunday 5pm Steve Wynn with Linda Pitmon www.stageit.com... 8pm www.stageit.com...
	1:01am coelacanth∅: ...still i'd stomach boring folk music far better than "smooth jazz".
	1:03am mariano: coela: TV party tonight! TV party tonight!
	1:04am rich: mariano, i love the idea of artists being paid to create house floats it’s much more interesting than the paint the plastic cow (or horse or cat or some other critter) for charity
	1:04am Bri The Beatnik: Coel: TV PARTY TONGIHT!!!
	1:05am coelacanth∅: i like Aoife Nessa Frances' voice and it reminds me of Katell Keineg's
	1:05am Kat in Chicago: Chicago has done the plastic cows and horses and they are pretty awful
	1:05am scobot: This Frances track reminds me of Lætitia Sadier side projects.
	1:05am Tamar: With you, coel. “Smooth jazz” makes me wince. Seems unfair to the rest of jazz.
	1:05am coelacanth∅: haha -isn't that a black flag song?
	1:06am Bri The Beatnik: Yup!
	1:07am coelacanth∅: Tamar boring folk is just boring, but smooth jazz is an abomination!
	1:08am coelacanth∅: (maybe because i like good folk music, but i LOVE good jazz music)
	1:13am rich: tamar you know how i feel about smooth jazz but you’ve never sat in someone’s living room once a week for a year singing kumbaya with a bunch of six year olds almost all of whom were bored except for the little girl whose mom taught sunday school and was thrilled by the sound of her own voice. my memory doesn’t remember what it exactly sounded like but i know it started me on my path to where my beliefs currently are.
	1:16am Bri The Beatnik: I was the rare kind that actually liked Kumbaya
	1:18am Kat in Chicago: I'm kumbayoutta here, good night all!
	1:19am rich: it needs a better arrangement maybe some horns some shouting some life
	1:19am mariano: coela: Yup. "We got nothing better to do/than watch TV and have a couple of brews!" Of course, all the shows they name are from the late 70s/early 80s. rich: Yeah, it's a great idea. I'm bummed there's no Mardi Gras, of course, it's one of the very few times it's been called off, but I love the creativity going into finding ways to celebrate safely. 'Night, Kat!
	1:19am coelacanth∅: i think i was a teenager before i'd ever heard of kumbaya, and to this day i don't think i've heard the whole song.
	1:19am Bri The Beatnik: Night Kat!
	1:19am rich: goodnight kat
	1:20am Scott67: Sweet dreams Kat.
	1:20am Bri The Beatnik: Kumbaya gives me warm fuzzies of my childhood sorry
	1:21am mariano: To me the difference between folk and smooth jazz is that there's some incredible folk, but there's not even vaguely good smooth jazz. The only thing it's good for is as the theme song of some failed Cosby TV pilot. I had a friend back in the early 90s who was really into Kenny G and MC Hammer (he knew how to pick 'em). I had to sit there while he played this one KG song, describing to me how it made him feel like his soul was soaring above the clouds. Wasn't gonna rain on his parade, he was a super nice guy, but man, that was torture.
	1:21am Kat in Chicago: no apologies needed, Bri :)
	1:21am rich: nothing to be sorry about bri
	1:22am mariano: Shouldn't even be called jazz, what did real jazz do to deserve that?! There was this old big-band guy, Preston Love, that had a radio show. He said Kenny G was to jazz what Mr. T was to acting, lol.
	1:23am coelacanth∅: mariano i have it on a cassette somewhere, from my early days taping off wfmu ... hill street blues, 3's company, dallas!...(?)
	1:23am coelacanth∅: it's okay Bri. i love herman's hermits!
	1:24am mariano: coela: It was in "Repo Man" too.
	1:24am coelacanth∅: 'night Kat
	1:24am Bri The Beatnik: I love Herman’s Hermits too Coel!
	1:25am Bri The Beatnik: More warm fuzzies from childhood 🥰
	1:26am slugluv1313: good evening, Rich and Skeletons and Squirrels! happy to be here with y'all on this windy stormy rainy night :)
	1:26am rich: i had a friend in college who had three cds: the eagles greatest hits, the sound of music soundtrack, and chicago’s greatest hits. he had great hash though
	1:26am mariano: Herman's Hermits are great! They even made a movie named after "Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter," and the opening track, "It's Nice to Be out in the Morning" is one of my favorite British-Invasion tracks. Heya slugluv!
	1:27am coelacanth∅: yes mariano @122 -as Tamar said... and it's NOT jazz.
	1:27am coelacanth∅: okay i guess herman's hermits wasn't the best example!
	1:28am mariano: rich: Lol! Hash makes up for a lot. I had these friends when I was a kid in Honduras, and sometimes in the summer I'd go stay at their house for like a week at a time. Once my grandma sent me over with a VHS of "Sound of Music," and they liked it so much that they watched it twice a day for over a week, it was excruciating!
	1:28am rich: good evening slugluv
	1:28am coelacanth∅: i don't know what's "lame" music in wfmuland! hi slugluv
	1:29am Bri The Beatnik: That’s true Coel!
	1:29am slugluv1313: @Bri -- re: Kumbaya -- same here! my Mom LOVED that song, but i never really knew what it was about until many years later -- fast forward to going to protests, and hearing others say stuff like "well it's not like we are gonna hold hands and sing 'Kumbaya'" etc. -- i got what they were saying, but geez, HATED that they were dissing "Kumbaya"
	1:29am mariano: Christopher Plummer refers to it as "The Sound of Mucus" to this day. I liked it well enough as a kid till my friends subjected me to the "Clockwork Orange" treatment with it.
	1:33am coelacanth∅: a book i'm about to finish depicts Julie Andrews "listing" her favorite things in the background of an over-the-top love-making scene!
	1:38am rich: i think overexposure to anything can lead to a lack of interest in something that you once enjoyed or cause you to never develop an interest in something that you might enjoy. though there are some things that one listen, one viewing, one read, one taste, you will avoid like the plague
	1:38am slugluv1313: hiya coelacanthø! hah! re: lame music, recalling Michele with One L playing The Backstreet Boys' "I Want It That Way" as a not-so-guilty pleasure (as it is with me) -- and apparently many other WFMU listeners too, and totally gag-inducing to many others :) reminded me of a dude i dated about 20 years ago, that song was playing when he was telling me how much he LOVED Lite-FM, because "I know I am always going to hear something familiar" etc. . . . the "relationship" did not last long
	1:39am Bri The Beatnik: I bet
	1:40am Bri The Beatnik: I couldn’t date a guy who liked backstreet boys
	1:40am Bri The Beatnik: Let alone “familiar music”
	1:42am Bri The Beatnik: I smoke Sunny D?
	1:42am coelacanth∅: slugluv if i were listening to Michele's show at that moment i would've turned it off with haste!
	1:42am slugluv1313: @ rich -- TOTALLY re: overexposure, when i was a kid/teenager growing up in NJ, Bruce Springsteen was sorta bubbling under, then started to get famous -- i thought, "cool! local boy makes good!" . . . THEN i went to college -- Rutgers/New Brunswick, and you could not get AWAY from BRUCE . . . by the time i graduated, i was totally hating Springsteen
	1:43am Bri The Beatnik: My mom didn’t even know who Brice Springsteen was when she was in high school!
	1:44am Bri The Beatnik: *Bruce
	1:44am rich: i went on a date with a woman once who told me the only music she could listen to was tuck and patti. i smiled, paid for dinner, and went home
	1:47am coelacanth∅: i grew to despise Springsteen's music... while liking HIM. there were boys in high school that seemed to literally worship him. (and i literally mean literally) i eventually realised he writes good songs but the arrangements are hard for me to take. i like the nebraska album because it was just a demo that got released.
	1:48am slugluv1313: @ Bri -- hah! was not the Backstreet Boys, but the whole Lite FM thing -- BARF! even worse, his "go to" song for dealing with stress, anxiety, etc., was "Tomorrow" from "Annie" (a song which makes me CRINGE no matter what) -- he was explaining this to me and started singing it when we were riding the F train one afternoon, and as much as i TRIED to be accepting, non-judgemental, open-minded, etc., i STILL found it next to impossible to keep myself from gagging
	1:48am Bri The Beatnik: I can’t tell you how many times my Dax would play Bruce Springsteen for me and I didn’t even like it
	1:49am slugluv1313: @ rich -- omg that is HYSTERICAL!!!!!
	1:50am slugluv1313: @coela -- yeah, years later and now i can listen to Bruce and appreciate him -- but yeah, it was like all the frat boys worshipped him
	1:51am rich: springsteen definitely can have that effect. when i was at rutgers i was surrounded sophomore year by a bunch of guys who loved king crimson (which i do) but they also loved playing air guitar to every song over and over again and it took me a few years to eliminate the connection between their grinning faces and the music. freshman year i knew someone who only played harry chapin; you can only feel sorry for someone like that.
	1:51am coelacanth∅: wnew-fm had a morning guy who would serve up "Bruce juice in the morning" while i got ready for school. that, southside johnny, and the many adverts for the us army are the main things that drove me toward wfmu.
	1:51am Bri The Beatnik: I appreciate his earlier work, but everytime Dad played me “The River” it just depressed me
	1:53am Bri The Beatnik: I could really relate to some of his songs like Thunder road
	1:54am Bri The Beatnik: Dad asked me the other day what my favorite Harry Chaplin song was, never got into him
	1:54am slugluv1313: thanks again, rich, for all the links to the amazing stuff going on -- WOW!
	1:55am coelacanth∅: Harry Chapin was a decent lyricist but man he bored the hell outa me!
	1:55am Bri The Beatnik: I agree Coel
	1:56am coelacanth∅: i've heard of tuck and patty but that's the extent of it
	1:56am slugluv1313: TV PARTY TONIGHT!!!!! and yes, except for Hill Street Blues, i watched those shows back then
	1:57am Bri The Beatnik: I never heard of them
	1:57am Bri The Beatnik: My Creative writing teacher told me about Tv party
	1:58am NikiA: hey guys remember chips....chips....chips....
	1:58am coelacanth∅: i understand tv party but it never applied to me
	2:00am coelacanth∅: hi Niki ...i was always the one that didn't want the tv on

	2:00am slugluv1313: UGH re: "Smooth Jazz" -- at one of my jobs, one of the typesetters played CD 101.9FM (one of WPIX radio's incarnations, IIRC) in the shop -- it was kinda a new thing, and he would go on and on about "Smooth Jazz" and how much he LOVED it (again, i was TRYING to be accepting and trying not to BARF)
	2:01am rich: coel that should remain the extent
	2:01am Bri The Beatnik: Tv party sounds right up my alley
	2:02am rich: the chips song was pretty great and 5 hours of it makes for a decent party if you’re blasting it out into the backyard
	2:05am coelacanth∅: (i don't know this chips song y'all been talking about for hours now)
	2:05am Hubig Pie: I've just turned in to some beautiful sounds
	2:05am Bri The Beatnik: It was on Abbie’s show
	2:06am mariano: slugluv: If you hate "Tomorrow," there's a scene in "Serial Mom" that'll be right up your alley: Kathleen Turner bludgeoning a woman to death with a leg of lamb while singing along to it.
	2:06am coelacanth∅: oh. i was otherwise tuned until the last hour.
	2:07am Bri The Beatnik: Same
	2:07am rich: good morning hubig
	2:08am Hubig Pie: Serial Mom had proper seasonal fashion sense
	2:10am northguineahills: ,,,,and it wasn't C.H.I.P.s or Hot Chip.... made the mistake of setting my alarm and allowing my phone to be w/in arms reach. I overslept (I was trying to get a near normal sleeping schedule). Well, back from my walk. The streets are so much nicer w/o the tourists out (not all of them mask up, either)
	2:10am mariano: 'Sup, Hubig. Yeah, she knew not to wear white shoes after Labor Day. Unlike Patty Hearst.
	2:10am Tamar: Hubig Pie, I have seen those very white shoes.
	2:11am rich: hello ngh
	2:12am coelacanth∅: i confess to listening to some seriously lame "new age" music for a little while, when my occupation made it seem like a good idea... including faux native-american flute music. ugh. i didn't realise how bad it was until a coworker said something about those pretty synthesizers they had out there in the prairie!
	2:13am Bri The Beatnik: Hey NGH!
	2:14am Tamar: Oh no, faux flutes are even worse than real ones.
	2:15am slugluv1313: hiya mariano -- yeah, i was going to ask you about what was happening with Mardi Gras! bummer that it is not happening, but glad/relieved that safety and sanity prevails, and that people are being creative in spite of it all . . . me, i am trying to come up with some insane vegan-Voudon-King Cake concoction (kinda frustrating, 20 years ago, even 10 -- i would have been totally clueless about the "cake" part but would have known exactly what to do about the herbs, spices, etc., . . . ugh, i am SO out of "practice") . . . and all the recipes online are like the internet's version of tourist trap/crap (like EVERYTHING is all about overly dense/rich chocolate cakes) . . . but so far i am thinking of Vanilla Bean from Madagascar (Vanilla is so complex, IMHO -- always kills me that it is used as a diss), Saffron from Spain, Myers's Dark Rum, Plantation Blackstrap Molasses . . . and i have NO idea what else, hah!
	2:16am slugluv1313: @mariano -- ARRGGGGGHHHHHH Kenny G.?!?! i am so sorry you had to go through that TORTURE
	2:16am rich: celery would be a better diss than vanilla
	2:17am coelacanth∅: haha Tamar... i like flutes! (especially the shakuhachi) and i like traditional "native american" flute music. (occasionally) most of these were a real flutist accompanied by lameass synthesizers.
	2:17am Hubig Pie: Being a rube from the mountain west, John Waters schooled me on proper etiquette
	2:18am mariano: slugluv: Thanks. Three decades later, I've started to heal ;)
	2:19am rich: proper etiquette with john waters sounds like a great series
	2:20am coelacanth∅: kenny g trained me to loath alto saxophone in most pop music. (Bowie's "young americans" being a good example of a good song severely damaged by saxophone)
	2:20am coelacanth∅: ...but then, there was probably enough horrible 80s music with bad saxophone that i might've gotten to that without kenny g.
	2:22am slugluv1313: @rich -- Eagles and Chicago and Sound of Music?!?! YIKES!!! is this dude a serial killer now? (yeah, my Mom called it Sound of Mucus too, hah!) i am HOPING that he did not force you to listen to them (as one of the supervisors at Tower Outlet would do! he hated Chicago too, but i would be trying to eat my lunch, and he would throw on a Chicago CD -- or even worse, Peter Cetera)
	2:23am rich: but kenny g and john tesh take bad saxophone to a conceivably unsurpassable level
	2:23am Hubig Pie: U would surely tune into a John Waters etiquette show
	2:23am slugluv1313: @mariano -- i have the soundtrack to Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter -- such a sweet LP!
	2:24am mariano: There's a great Greek movie from the 70s called "Iphigenia," an adaptation of the play by Euripides. Irene Papas is in it as Clytemnestra. Iphigenia was the daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra whom the gods required be sacrificed so that the Trojan War could happen.
	2:24am mariano: slugluv: Yeah, isn't that a great soundtrack?
	2:25am mariano: "Iphigenia": en.wikipedia.org...
	2:25am Hubig Pie: I not U. I gots a new phone. Still working out the kinks
	2:25am slugluv1313: oh gawd, yes, i remember -- Bruce Juice, UGH
	2:26am northguineahills: salutations, friends! Being a rube from FL, cinema, music and art was my guide. When I moved to NYC, I had to confess I came from a not-so-diverse culture, please educate me on your background. Didn't take long before I caught up..... (let's see, w/ a graduating HS class of 600, 1 was Jewish, 5 were Catholic, 8 were Filipino (also Catholic) and the rest was the normal Southern demographic breakdown. Well, there was some LBGTB+ that were out, and show me the club scene, so, the first club I went to in college, was a gay club. (I'm cis-straight, but it's hard to find anything interesting in the South [you just need to know where to look])
	2:26am rich: slugluv last i heard he was still with apple; he was an early adopter and salesperson. he would occasionally put on the eagles but another friend and i would occasionally “force” him to listen to jazz, king crimson, eno.
	2:26am coelacanth∅: rich haha (@223) i guess they deserve some credit!
	2:28am slugluv1313: @coela -- that may have been Dave Herman??? the WNEW-FM DJ who was arrested for attempting to have sex with a child
	2:28am mariano: Oh, and in Euripides' play, Iphigenia is miraculously saved at the last minute by the gods. Kind of like the Abraham and Isaac story. The movie is more ambiguous but hints heavily that she was killed.
	2:28am northguineahills: wasn't artemis that demanded a sacrifice to make the winds blow as the Greek army was stranded due to lack of wind (or something like that).
	2:29am NikiA: I fucking love that I heard a bunch of weird shit, Shostakovich, and then a bunch more weird shit
	2:30am slugluv1313: @mariano -- DAMN! i saw Serial Mom, but do not recall that scene??? but yup, John Waters totally gets it :) (and i am kinda getting a kick out of his guest appearances on SVU!)
	2:31am coelacanth∅: yes, Dave Herman. - i never heard that little tidbit of tidbittery. but i do remember him saying things like, after playing "oliver's army" by Elvis Costello, "i don't know what Elvis is so angry about"... when fucking pos reagan was ... being reagan.
	2:32am NikiA: isn't that deus ex machina
	2:32am mariano: ngh: Yep, Agamemnon's men accidentally kill a lamb sacred to Artemis, and as punishment, the winds won't blow to take the ships to Troy. Also, I hear you about gay culture being an oasis even for straight people in the Bible Belt. When I was in north Louisiana (polar opposite of New Orleans), there was a really big overlap between the punk/alt and LGBT. Basically, both crowds always wound up at Rocky Horror every Saturday midnight, lol.
	2:32am Bri The Beatnik: Jazz, King Crimson and Eno, all better than the Eagles!
	2:32am coelacanth∅: Niki, right! (@229)
	2:32am slugluv1313: @mariano -- YES it takes a LOT to heal from Kenny G., WFMU is like the BEST medicine
	2:34am mariano: NikiA: Yeah, the deus ex machina got its start in Greek drama ("apo mechanes theos").
	2:36am Tamar: Slug luv, yeah, I had my clock radio set to WNEW mostly in high school, creeps me out now that Dave Herman was such a creep. I think they did Bruce Juice all day, no? Seemed like it.
	2:36am NikiA: yes I studied classical civ in high school! hahah.

	2:41am mariano: slugluv: New Orleans is surprisingly vegan-friendly. A few bakeries do vegan king cakes, like this one: www.breadsonoak.com...
	2:41am slugluv1313: hiya Tamar! yes, possibly? i was in high school, the Bruce Juice thing may have been for evening drive time/rush hour too -- and yes, totally creeped me out when that story about Herman broke -- i mean, i never would have guessed anything like that about him at all (but, sadly, that is true of a LOT of these predators, they really know how to keep up "normal" appearances) . . . and he died while in prison in Essex County, BEFORE he went to trial!
	2:42am coelacanth∅: Niki have you tuned in to Bethany's show here on fmu? ("A440")
	2:43am coelacanth∅: she takes less-traveled avenues of classical music.
	2:44am slugluv1313: @mariano -- YES! Breads on Oak, i believe you have mentioned them before! i adore how they use an almond, instead of a plastic baby :) (and btw -- from an earlier playlist -- those baby pot-bellied pigs are ADORABLE!)
	2:46am northguineahills: @mariano: I joined the film club my freshman year as an undergrad. I was 18 when I saw my first Rocky Horror. Part of the fun was showing films that were otherwise banned in the USA (cue 2LiveCrew), including many explicit gay and artistic films, from the likes of Kenneth Anger and Jack Smith. We also showed Oshima's "In the Realm of the Senses", which the university objected to. We had a whole cinema, and where I first was exposed to jodorowsky....)
	2:51am NikiA: @Coel I think I have, but I'm still getting used to all the shows
	2:52am northguineahills: David Dichelle usually does one classical set, usually by artists I even had heard of on this Continental Subway on the wfmu Give the Drummer Some. When Kurt (miniature minotaurs) does fill-ins, he usually does an avant-classical set.
	2:52am rich: and that’s a wrap. as i slowly expel the helium out my nozzle let me thank you for listening and have a good, healthy, and safe week. eat, drink, be merry, leap beyond your normal bounds, free your ass, trail your mind while it follows, check your blind spots before merging, and always enjoy life even when it gives you reasons not to because it is constantly teaching and we are constantly learning (or should be). and thank you skeleton crew, we sing your praises.
	2:52am northguineahills: Thanks, Rich!
	2:53am mariano: That sounds amazing, ngh! I wish I'd discovered Kenneth Anger back then, I had to wait till my 20s. And oh yeah, was wondering about Kurt G the other day. slugluv: Yeah, those little piggies are adorable <3 Thanks, rich, always great to listen and gab on your watch. Thank you Crew, 'night everyone!
	👻 2:53am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, rich. Please recycle that helium as it's getting harder to come by.
	2:54am slugluv1313: wonderful wonderful show, Rich -- thanks so much! have a great weekend/week, everyone -- be well, stay safe!
	2:54am northguineahills: Most recently, Kurt has been doing fill-ins on GTDS, but I think he did two on the mothership as well.
	2:55am mariano: Good to know, ngh -- I should check out the other streams more, I get so set in my ways.
	2:56am NikiA: @Ceol now I remember, A440 is classical
	2:57am Bri The Beatnik: Mariano, I’ve just started listening to more of the mothership lately, before it was mostly Sheena’s and the Night Owl
	2:57am coelacanth∅: i haven't heard Kurt in a year.
	2:58am coelacanth∅: ...yes, his last fill-in was on march 5.
	2:59am coelacanth∅: Thanks Rich! 'night y'all
	2:59am Bri The Beatnik: Night Coel!
	2:59am coelacanth∅: Niki yes, tuesday at 8pm. 1 hour.
