	3:15pm Spinning Giant: damn, Todd - i dont blame you! Pets! Leeashes! all that... we dont even have fish... i like the idea... but i know id probably end up resenting whatever domesticated beast we "adopt"...
	3:15pm medson: I have a little sign that says “You can definitely dance” Sincerely Vodka.
	3:16pm Andrew in Toronto: How`s your driveway looking Dennis?
	3:16pm Spinning Giant: Fuck, but Debbie could croon it...so sexy...
	3:16pm Stevel: As a recovering photojournalist with a weakness for loud and fast music, I'm especially excited about the Roberta B. interview,
	3:16pm Spinning Giant: medson, LO-F-ing-L
	3:17pm Spinning Giant: Medson, I have one of those too, but it's signed by Irish Whiskey...
	3:18pm Spinning Giant: Maybe they're cousins...?

	3:19pm 8track: CBGB was such a special place in rock history :o)

	3:20pm Dennis Diken: Mike Mesaros & me were at CBGBs when this Tuff Darts song was recorded!
	3:20pm P-90: Pow. Pow. And furthermore: POW!
	3:21pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Dennis: Was the Wally Heider mobile unit in front of 315 Bowery that night?
	3:21pm Spinning Giant: @D-Squared - you're the fucking king! Love that story!
	3:21pm Stevel: I heard Tuff Darts interviewed on KFML freeform radion in Denver in spring of '78, the same afternoon I was getting ready to pick up my prom date. I did not try to explain the humor of "She's Dead".
	3:21pm Dennis Diken: @Andrew - I just finished shoveling it out, otherwise it’d be near impossible to get my car out with the snow coming tomorrow!
	3:22pm medson: @spinning giant for sure.
	3:22pm mariano: Heya TOPT, Crew, weekend warriors!
	3:24pm Spinning Giant: hey mariano!
	3:24pm carl from rhode island: YES now, the party starts
	3:25pm Spinning Giant: this is a nce cut, Todd - somewhere between Sloan & Teenage Fan Club - did we get in a time machine..? is it 1998...?
	3:26pm Corey: Hello TOPT and listeners! Nice to join you all.
	3:26pm Spinning Giant: **NICE!
	3:26pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Spinning Giant: Yeah, I love this new Cool Ghouls track...
	3:26pm Spinning Giant: so freaking good, Todd! Thanks for the intro!
	3:28pm Chop Scott: EEK! That Bash & Pop tour bus saga...
	3:29pm Matt Clarke: @Chop Scott: It's amazing the building survives to tell the story
	3:29pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Chop Scott: You really could make a movie out of it. Including the visit to the diner.
	3:29pm phat: I missed that Bash and Pop saga.
	3:30pm Matt Clarke: @Todd: I want to make a movie out of the diner and the consistency of the water service
	3:31pm ledzeppelinsucks: There is no 'San Francisco' area. San Francisco is in Bay Area.
	3:32pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @ledzeppelinsucks: I misspoke.
	3:33pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Matt Clarke: A worthy sequel.
	3:33pm Gina Bacon: I knew Roberta a little bit through some musician friends in the NYC 80's...it's so great to hear her!
	3:33pm Spinning Giant: Hey Handy! Good luck with the cards...consider the north of 49th affiliate connected...
	3:34pm Spinning Giant: Gina!
	3:34pm Spinning Giant: Hi! :)
	3:34pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Hey Gina! For those who don't know, Gina and Bob Irwin host a great show on the drummer stream called Big Planet Noise from 9pm-midnight on Mondays!
	3:40pm Spinning Giant: ...such a great interview, Todd...as always...as "care-free" as they were, those punks did seem to care a whole lot about their hair... ;P
	3:41pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Spinning Giant: Indeed. The first time I interviewed Richard Hell we discussed how much time he spent making it look like he spent no time on his hair.
	3:44pm Doug in JC: 13th - Nightingale Lounge?
	3:45pm Doug in JC: Or just Nightingale's back when
	3:45pm Spinning Giant: Todd - that's awesome/hilarious!...no judgement - it's entirely conceivable to postulate that these icons we revere would potentially not reside nearly so close to the pantheon of coolness as they now do if it weren't for the agonizations over the hair..!... Hence... "Hair" bands in the late 70s/early 80s... Which has long been considered an insult... ...until now...?...
	3:46pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Doug in JC: Would not have been Nightingale's.
	3:47pm Richy4619: I am over living in the SF Bay Area. Terrible place for an artist to live.
	3:47pm Gina Bacon: Thanks, Todd!! (:
	3:49pm Frank Zaatar: OK, but are the stories of Hilly's chili true?
	3:50pm miniteeny: Lol I remember that bathroom off the stage. Awkward :)
	3:50pm Gina Bacon: I remember how everyone tried to perfect "that hair" back then. Lots of effort and products.
	3:50pm Frank Zaatar: Todd, you read my mind.
	3:52pm Spinning Giant: Dinckelwhacker..? Elaborate, please...
	3:52pm Gina Bacon: Dinkel Acker!
	👻 3:52pm Frank In Queens: OH COME ON!!! Dinkel Acker is way better than Heineken!
	3:52pm Spinning Giant: Hell YES!!!
	3:53pm Stevel: Great interview!
	3:53pm Corey: Loving the interview.
	3:53pm MFlynn: Ah, I like Dinkel acker!
	3:54pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I'm glad you guys like the interview because there is more of it coming!
	3:54pm Gina Bacon: Bringing back great memories!
	3:54pm Spinning Giant: is this all orig lineup...? or new singer...? sounds so different...
	3:55pm Dennis Diken: @Todd - ha!
	3:55pm Spinning Giant: i feel like i'm back in the late 90s/early nought vortex again...
	3:55pm medson: So good
	3:55pm Sissophonic Cheryl: Great interview boo
	3:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Spinning Giant: Andy Shernoff on vocals...Ross The Boss on guitar and Albert Bouchard (BOC) on drums.
	3:56pm James: Sid's badge in the photo says "I'm A Mess".
	3:57pm Matt Clarke: Excellent show, Todd
	3:57pm Spinning Giant: thanks, Todd
	3:57pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Matt Clarke: It's merely a warm-up for "The Black Scorpion".
	3:57pm MFlynn: This is so much fun!! Thanks Todd!!!!!
	3:58pm McGroovey: Actually, I've never liked Heineken. I've always thought of Heineken as expensive cheap beer.
	3:59pm Spinning Giant: McGroovey - agreed, overrated, at best - it's no Pilsner Urquell...
	3:59pm HyperDose: @McGroovey Too much foam. I don't know how people throw them back
	4:00pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @McGroovey @HyperDose: To quote Lou Reed: "Those were different times".
	4:00pm MFlynn: i think Dave Edmunds was a Heineken guy? I could be wrong about that.
	4:00pm medson: The Dolls always kill it.
	4:02pm bigplanetnoise: Hey Todd and all Phonics!
	4:02pm Spinning Giant: Todd, this is hilarious - is one of the food-service delivery co'S in the US using this yet...? It sounds like a Little Caesars add LOL...
	4:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @MFlynn: Not sure what Mr. Edmunds drank.
	4:03pm Frank Zaatar: Shoutout to Schafer, the Champagne of Scranton beers.
	4:03pm MFlynn: I’ll bet you’re right Todd!!!!!
	👻 4:04pm Frank In Queens: Ah, the best early Beatles album....
	4:04pm HyperDose: Bob! Howdy 🤠
	4:04pm Matt Clarke: Fav Beatles
	4:05pm bigplanetnoise: Hey Hyperdose!!
	4:05pm Ross T.: I recall "We Deliver" being singled out on a comp in Christgau's Consumer Guide.
	4:05pm Gina Bacon: bigplanetnoise!
	4:06pm Gaylord Fields: I'm with you, Frank and Matt: BFS is the Beatles album that defines them for me.
	4:06pm Spinning Giant: Todd, I don't think I've ever heard you play the Beatles before...generally speaking, and I know this might be contrary. but I've never really been a fan...grossly overplayed and overdone...Paul is a polarizing figure, to say the least...again, not a big fan...
	4:06pm Matt Clarke: Hey there BPN!
	4:06pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Frank In Queens: Beatles For Sale is great and that song always sounds fresh @Matt Clarke
	4:06pm Pat B: Here's that picture of Merv carrying RB's Heineken https://i.pinimg.com/originals/45/25/92/4525928b6b95a0c28889e9e342cc2b9a.png
	4:07pm Gina Bacon: Hey, Spinning Giant! (:
	4:07pm Spinning Giant: wish I was there to hear this live at the Fillmore...Wowsers
	4:07pm Spinning Giant: Hi, Gina! See (and hear) you soon...
	4:08pm bigplanetnoise: Hey Gina!
	4:08pm bigplanetnoise: Matt!! How are you today?!
	4:08pm Spinning Giant: WHAAAAT! Toddd, stopp it already! you're making me mental! Wow - so raw and so...everything...Tom and the boys...wow...
	4:09pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks for sending that photo, Pat...classic!
	4:10pm James: That's lovely Pat B, thanks.
	4:10pm Matt Clarke: @BPN: Getting chores done before the work week starts again! Hope all is well and sunny where you are
	4:11pm Gina Bacon: I'm still thinking about the Dinkel Acker. Was it The Village Idiot that had the boot mugs?
	4:11pm Handy Haversack: BTW, Todd, it's working! Your cut is looking pretty good so far.
	4:11pm full_english_breakfast: priviledge!!!
	4:12pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Handy Haversack: That's good news because I already spent your winnings at 2nd St. Bakery earlier today.
	4:13pm mariano: Oh, hey, Spinning Giant, missed your greeting above. Jamming on some work, mainly in lurk mode :)
	4:14pm Handy Haversack: OH MAN, Todd, what did you get me? OK, Jersey City, I'm crossing the rivers one day soon. Keep the ovens on! I have several new dollars!
	4:14pm Spinning Giant: all good, mariano...no worries, mate...i should probably be "working" also...just no fucks to give today... 'D
	4:16pm Spinning Giant: ** ;D
	👻 4:30pm Micheal: Joey with the surfboard is such a great picture! Thanks for the interview with Roberta!
	4:35pm Matt Clarke: Great interview, Todd
	4:36pm medson: Thanks for this Todd. Really good.
	4:36pm DonJuanTijuana: Definitely great to hear this interview!!!
	4:36pm ?: hey Roberta! Sounds good!
	4:36pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Matt and Don Juan! You're welcome Medson!
	4:37pm Marie: I drove a big buick from Chicago to New York (a car transport) listening to this album on cassette over and over
	4:38pm sufferwords: thanks Todd- library of congress style interview
	4:39pm rob duprey: yipes missed the boat? cool pic. as I remember
	4:39pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Duprey! Thanks to Duncan Hannah you are infamous!
	4:39pm stuntz: Love the Mink Mr.O-Phonic!
	4:40pm johnk77: rip willy & manfred
	4:41pm franz: Hey Todd! Beautiful show last week, really enjoyed the Reminder Records feature. Got some Gin, some tonic, and celebrating saturday noght with your show!
	4:41pm phat: I really need to listen to more Mink Deville. He's the one from that scene I know the least. But everytime I hear him I freaking love it.
	4:41pm rob duprey: infamous. I was pretty obnoxious as a youngster. He asked me if it was OK to write the stuff, I said let er rip. Truth in advertising
	4:42pm phat: They, I should say
	4:42pm rob duprey: good show
	4:43pm phat: Great interview, by the way. If I had a time machine, I'd go back to NYC from like 1970 to like 1990, repeatedly.
	4:43pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Rob. If you weren't obnoxious as a youngster you probably weren't doing it right.
	4:44pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @franz: Thanks a lot!!!
	4:45pm johnk77: the truth is that after cbgbs heyday willy deville responded negatively to any questions about that venue even though he moved his band from california back to nyc to get in on that scene
	4:45pm rollycoaster: Everything sounds so slow to me today. Need to see about these meds
	4:46pm Ross T.: Being addicted to heroin never sounded so good!
	4:46pm phat: Goddamn, Chinese Rocks. This song is emblematic of a time in my life. Thank God I wasn't doing what the song is about.
	👻 4:46pm nealac: Great show and interview, Todd! I really enjoy having this show to look forward to as the winter days creep by.
	4:47pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @nealac: Thanks! Glad to be of help!
	4:48pm joe mulligan: Roberta mentioned Joey posing with a surfboard as a "fantasy" type shot.. He was probably the world's first surf punk poser!
	4:49pm phat: I do so love punk rock. And this recent hip re-evaluation of the Sex Pistols as being a "boy band" is BS.
	4:49pm Joey joe joe: “Head breakers —ha
	👻 4:49pm Cacophone Jeff: Hey Todd-o-phonic! Been listening on the phone app all day, but had to jump on the computer to say how much I enjoyed that interview and this entire set! Thank you so much, as always! Cheers to all!
	4:50pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: There is still one interview segment left!
	4:50pm johnk77: very entertaining show selecter
	4:50pm Handy Haversack: I'm gonna say it: this is a good song.
	4:50pm Joana: Saw John Lydon touring in around 2014 and it was fantastic
	4:51pm stuntz: Todd Saves.
	4:51pm phat: @Todd-o-phonic Todd sweet!
	4:52pm phat: @Joana got to see PiL at a little club here in Lincoln, NE in 2015 and it was phenomenal.
	4:53pm Creature Boy: Haha @stuntz
	4:53pm Creature Boy: Jello everbody
	4:55pm medson: Sometimes it hurts
	4:55pm DonJuanTijuana: What is this Demo?? I never heard this before.
	4:56pm Joana: @Phat--yeah, that must have been the tour--I saw him in Chicago and felt so grateful to be able to see him live--truly fantastic
	👻 4:56pm Hackensack Slim: This divided by 2 equals 2 great songs.
	4:57pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @DonJuanTijuana: Apparently recorded in Yonkers in '76. With Hell obviously.
	4:58pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Jeff Conolly played piano on The Real Kids version of "Roberta".
	4:58pm phat: @Joana it really was fantastic. I was pissed at myself because I didn't realize who was playing guitar for him until later.
	4:59pm Matt: Great show! Love the interviews and history.
	4:59pm Joana: @phat--who was the guitarist?
	5:02pm DonJuanTijuana: No doubt Monoman was multi-talented...one of my favorite live performers
	5:05pm Stevel: I'd forgotten/didn't know, she went on the SP tour. Wow.
	5:14pm phat: @Joana https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lu_Edmonds
	5:16pm Ross T.: Loved it.
	5:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: YAY !
	5:18pm Barbie: I love Roberta Bailey
	5:18pm Matt Clarke: Great chat
	5:19pm chresti: Hi Todd and party!
	5:19pm listener 126464: Loved the interview and selections, Todd.
	5:19pm bill hanke: YES!!!!! the Grateful fuckin Dead straight up the ass of all the lame snobs who hate them. the Dead were PUNKS!!!!
	5:20pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I was really psyched to chat with Roberta. Glad you kids enjoyed it!
	5:21pm James: really enjoyable thanks.
	5:21pm Corey: That was totally great. These interviews have been a real tonic during these strange days. A reminder that people used to do and experience things! Thanks TOPT!
	5:21pm medson: Great conversation. Lots of good stuff
	5:21pm bill hanke: this is the best radio show ever!!!!
	5:21pm McGroovey: Was that a Jerry Garcia guitar solo? Good. Admirably concise.
	5:21pm lunarleigh: I love Roberta! Thanks for the interview. She’s kickass!
	5:22pm George in WO: Really interesting interview, Todd! Thanks. It might inspire me to go buy a camera!
	5:22pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: The Midnight Hour...when Kolchak: The Night Stalker is on MeTV!
	5:22pm McGroovey: Great interviooo
	5:22pm bill hanke: Pig Pen knows.
	5:24pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: George in WO: Ha!
	5:24pm phat: I gotta say, as a newish convert from the anti-Dead world, this is terrible. They really got a lot better.
	5:25pm chresti: My landlady is a photographer, shot pics of Nick Cave, L7, Green Day, other LA artists...in the 90s and 00s
	5:26pm rollycoaster: The only dead that matters to me is Pigpen Dead
	5:27pm McGroovey: I don't think it's terrible. Would have been better with more guitar solos and fewer reps of vamps on the "in the midnight hour" line.
	5:27pm bill hanke: when Please Kill Me came out audience Q&A i asked Legs about the Dead being original punks and he got mad. weird clothes, weird hair, drugs, dancing, anti-social = PUNK!
	5:27pm McGroovey: But it is getting to be to long already. I'm crying "uncle!"
	5:28pm rollycoaster: Yeah they got so “good” that their final form is The Oldies Revue with John Mayer
	5:28pm McGroovey: Too My auto-correct is my enemy.
	5:29pm phat: @McGroovey it just seems aimless and the vocals... I mean, I'm sure people love this. I've heard plenty Dead that I've really dug, though. Actually, on the Avant Ghetto.
	5:29pm Elle Tor's Husband: The Dead would have been a lot different band if Pigpen had lived. I hear a more British Invasion thing with his vocals
	5:30pm Matt Fiveash: Having a rave up with the Grateful Dead
	5:30pm rollycoaster: 70s Dead is as abysmal as it gets, with very few exceptions. They only got worse from there. Now they are literally the Rock A Fire Explosion Band. Pigpen was the heart and soul of this band. When he died, they died.
	5:31pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Matt Fiveash: Maybe rave down?
	5:31pm McGroovey: You feel alright. I believe you. Now stop. I got it.
	5:31pm Frank Zaatar: Actualy, this is the least irritating Pigpen rap I've ever heard. But then again, I'm theguy who was sorry when Tom Constanten left the band.
	5:32pm Mr C: Hey, that guitar player could've been a contender if he stuck to it..
	5:32pm rollycoaster: @Elle Tor EXACTLY. They were such a high energy band at that time. Some sets rival the MC5. 4/22/69 at the Ark in Boston is a great example of this.
	5:33pm Vistavision: You rock well Todd!
	5:33pm rollycoaster: @McGroovy do more drugs
	5:34pm Matt Fiveash: They should have waited till there was no one else around to do this one
	5:34pm Michael Shelley: Wow!
	5:34pm Josephine: I used to party with Jerry in the 60s. boy do I love the big hairy zaftig rockers ;)
	5:35pm phat: I may actually be going back to my hating the Dead place again. Lol. No.
	👻 5:36pm Frank In Queens: Wow, I'm surprised that version didn't take us right to the end of the show!
	5:36pm McGroovey: I saw Tom Constanten playing a solo improv set(or maybe in a duo with Oliver Lake?) at the Leonard St Knitting Factory, opening for someone else (don't remember who). I do remember being surprised that Tom C and Oliver weren't actually good, or at least they weren't that night.
	5:36pm 8track: Lol, zaftig rockers - how about Popa Chubby? :o)
	5:36pm phat: Jeff! His Sunday came along for me at a perfect time.
	5:37pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Frank In Queens: Cheryl thought it was going to take us to the midnight hour.
	5:39pm Mr C: Amen to that Todd!
	5:40pm Elle Tor's Husband: All said and done I love the Dead. I'm an old Punk Rocker so to admit that is sacrilege. Scarlet Begonias baby!
	5:41pm Andres: Great interview, Todd! And enjoyed the Conklin shout out! Some great Sunday nights were had with his show.
	👻 5:42pm Frank In Queens: This Cub Scout Bowling Pins EP is better than the last proper GBV album.
	5:42pm DjLorraine: Cool interview again TY
	5:42pm phat: @Andres I bought more records after hearing them on his show last year than really just about anything else.
	5:42pm patrick321: Hey Todd I've been in my car so late to the board but I really enjoyed the interview.
	5:42pm rollycoaster: I only really care about the first few records but aside from those I am totally ok with never hearing the Dead again. In fact, I would support legislation to put a moratorium on them as it seems to be a societal problem again
	5:44pm Dennis Diken: really dug the interview, swell show all around Todd! as per....
	5:44pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Dennis! Can't wait for Denny's Den on The Rock and Soul Stream Wednesday at 2!
	5:45pm McGroovey: I'm looking forward to the rumored imminent Teenage Fanclub album. I love all their records. Well, except The King.
	5:49pm ledzeppelinsucks: Flip Your Wig is top notch.
	5:50pm Micheal: This Husker record saved me when I was 24 or so.
	5:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Song for his kittykat.
	5:51pm MFlynn: Thanks Todd. Another great interview!! Made my Saturday as usual. Catch you next week and Tues night too.
	5:52pm RevErie: Thanks Todd, enjoyed the show!!!
	5:53pm Corey: Well, that was a blast. ThanksTOPT and skeleton crew! Take care everybody.

	5:58pm radioronan: Great interview .. thanks Todd & Roberta.. Thanks skeletons.
	5:58pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Todd, Ruth! Todd, 2nd Street Bakery's on me next time!
	5:58pm mariano: Thank you TOPT! Love to the Crew, bye everyone!
	5:59pm Sissophonic Cheryl: Did anyone ever know a dj who was afraid of freezing to death in his own home when it was 70 degrees in the apartment?

	3:21pm Stevel: I heard Tuff Darts interviewed on KFML freeform radion in Denver in spring of '78, the same afternoon I was getting ready to pick up my prom date. I did not try to explain the humor of "She's Dead".
	3:21pm Dennis Diken: @Andrew - I just finished shoveling it out, otherwise it’d be near impossible to get my car out with the snow coming tomorrow!
	3:22pm medson: @spinning giant for sure.
	3:22pm mariano: Heya TOPT, Crew, weekend warriors!
	3:24pm Spinning Giant: hey mariano!
	3:24pm carl from rhode island: YES now, the party starts

	3:26pm Spinning Giant: so freaking good, Todd! Thanks for the intro!
	3:28pm Chop Scott: EEK! That Bash & Pop tour bus saga...
	3:29pm Matt Clarke: @Chop Scott: It's amazing the building survives to tell the story
	3:29pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Chop Scott: You really could make a movie out of it. Including the visit to the diner.
	3:29pm phat: I missed that Bash and Pop saga.
	3:30pm Matt Clarke: @Todd: I want to make a movie out of the diner and the consistency of the water service
	3:31pm ledzeppelinsucks: There is no 'San Francisco' area. San Francisco is in Bay Area.
	3:32pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @ledzeppelinsucks: I misspoke.
	3:33pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Matt Clarke: A worthy sequel.
	3:33pm Gina Bacon: I knew Roberta a little bit through some musician friends in the NYC 80's...it's so great to hear her!
	3:33pm Spinning Giant: Hey Handy! Good luck with the cards...consider the north of 49th affiliate connected...
	3:34pm Spinning Giant: Gina!
	3:34pm Spinning Giant: Hi! :)
	3:34pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Hey Gina! For those who don't know, Gina and Bob Irwin host a great show on the drummer stream called Big Planet Noise from 9pm-midnight on Mondays!
	3:40pm Spinning Giant: ...such a great interview, Todd...as always...as "care-free" as they were, those punks did seem to care a whole lot about their hair... ;P
	3:41pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Spinning Giant: Indeed. The first time I interviewed Richard Hell we discussed how much time he spent making it look like he spent no time on his hair.
	3:44pm Doug in JC: 13th - Nightingale Lounge?
	3:45pm Doug in JC: Or just Nightingale's back when
	3:45pm Spinning Giant: Todd - that's awesome/hilarious!...no judgement - it's entirely conceivable to postulate that these icons we revere would potentially not reside nearly so close to the pantheon of coolness as they now do if it weren't for the agonizations over the hair..!... Hence... "Hair" bands in the late 70s/early 80s... Which has long been considered an insult... ...until now...?...
	3:46pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Doug in JC: Would not have been Nightingale's.
	3:47pm Richy4619: I am over living in the SF Bay Area. Terrible place for an artist to live.
	3:47pm Gina Bacon: Thanks, Todd!! (:
	3:49pm Frank Zaatar: OK, but are the stories of Hilly's chili true?
	3:50pm miniteeny: Lol I remember that bathroom off the stage. Awkward :)
	3:50pm Gina Bacon: I remember how everyone tried to perfect "that hair" back then. Lots of effort and products.
	3:50pm Frank Zaatar: Todd, you read my mind.
	3:52pm Spinning Giant: Dinckelwhacker..? Elaborate, please...
	3:52pm Gina Bacon: Dinkel Acker!
	👻 3:52pm Frank In Queens: OH COME ON!!! Dinkel Acker is way better than Heineken!
	3:52pm Spinning Giant: Hell YES!!!
	3:53pm Stevel: Great interview!
	3:53pm Corey: Loving the interview.
	3:53pm MFlynn: Ah, I like Dinkel acker!
	3:54pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: I'm glad you guys like the interview because there is more of it coming!
	3:54pm Gina Bacon: Bringing back great memories!
	3:54pm Spinning Giant: is this all orig lineup...? or new singer...? sounds so different...
	3:55pm Dennis Diken: @Todd - ha!
	3:55pm Spinning Giant: i feel like i'm back in the late 90s/early nought vortex again...
	3:55pm medson: So good
	3:55pm Sissophonic Cheryl: Great interview boo
	3:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Spinning Giant: Andy Shernoff on vocals...Ross The Boss on guitar and Albert Bouchard (BOC) on drums.
	3:56pm James: Sid's badge in the photo says "I'm A Mess".
	3:57pm Matt Clarke: Excellent show, Todd
	3:57pm Spinning Giant: thanks, Todd
	3:57pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Matt Clarke: It's merely a warm-up for "The Black Scorpion".
	3:57pm MFlynn: This is so much fun!! Thanks Todd!!!!!
	3:58pm McGroovey: Actually, I've never liked Heineken. I've always thought of Heineken as expensive cheap beer.
	3:59pm Spinning Giant: McGroovey - agreed, overrated, at best - it's no Pilsner Urquell...
	3:59pm HyperDose: @McGroovey Too much foam. I don't know how people throw them back
	4:00pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @McGroovey @HyperDose: To quote Lou Reed: "Those were different times".
	4:00pm MFlynn: i think Dave Edmunds was a Heineken guy? I could be wrong about that.
	4:00pm medson: The Dolls always kill it.
	4:02pm bigplanetnoise: Hey Todd and all Phonics!
	4:02pm Spinning Giant: Todd, this is hilarious - is one of the food-service delivery co'S in the US using this yet...? It sounds like a Little Caesars add LOL...
	4:02pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @MFlynn: Not sure what Mr. Edmunds drank.
	4:03pm Frank Zaatar: Shoutout to Schafer, the Champagne of Scranton beers.
	4:03pm MFlynn: I’ll bet you’re right Todd!!!!!
	👻 4:04pm Frank In Queens: Ah, the best early Beatles album....
	4:04pm HyperDose: Bob! Howdy 🤠
	4:04pm Matt Clarke: Fav Beatles
	4:05pm bigplanetnoise: Hey Hyperdose!!
	4:05pm Ross T.: I recall "We Deliver" being singled out on a comp in Christgau's Consumer Guide.
	4:05pm Gina Bacon: bigplanetnoise!
	4:06pm Gaylord Fields: I'm with you, Frank and Matt: BFS is the Beatles album that defines them for me.
	4:06pm Spinning Giant: Todd, I don't think I've ever heard you play the Beatles before...generally speaking, and I know this might be contrary. but I've never really been a fan...grossly overplayed and overdone...Paul is a polarizing figure, to say the least...again, not a big fan...
	4:06pm Matt Clarke: Hey there BPN!
	4:06pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Frank In Queens: Beatles For Sale is great and that song always sounds fresh @Matt Clarke
	4:06pm Pat B: Here's that picture of Merv carrying RB's Heineken https://i.pinimg.com/originals/45/25/92/4525928b6b95a0c28889e9e342cc2b9a.png
	4:07pm Gina Bacon: Hey, Spinning Giant! (:
	4:07pm Spinning Giant: wish I was there to hear this live at the Fillmore...Wowsers
	4:07pm Spinning Giant: Hi, Gina! See (and hear) you soon...
	4:08pm bigplanetnoise: Hey Gina!
	4:08pm bigplanetnoise: Matt!! How are you today?!
	4:08pm Spinning Giant: WHAAAAT! Toddd, stopp it already! you're making me mental! Wow - so raw and so...everything...Tom and the boys...wow...
	4:09pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks for sending that photo, Pat...classic!
	4:10pm James: That's lovely Pat B, thanks.
	4:10pm Matt Clarke: @BPN: Getting chores done before the work week starts again! Hope all is well and sunny where you are
	4:11pm Gina Bacon: I'm still thinking about the Dinkel Acker. Was it The Village Idiot that had the boot mugs?
	4:11pm Handy Haversack: BTW, Todd, it's working! Your cut is looking pretty good so far.
	4:11pm full_english_breakfast: priviledge!!!
	4:12pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Handy Haversack: That's good news because I already spent your winnings at 2nd St. Bakery earlier today.
	4:13pm mariano: Oh, hey, Spinning Giant, missed your greeting above. Jamming on some work, mainly in lurk mode :)
	4:14pm Handy Haversack: OH MAN, Todd, what did you get me? OK, Jersey City, I'm crossing the rivers one day soon. Keep the ovens on! I have several new dollars!
	4:14pm Spinning Giant: all good, mariano...no worries, mate...i should probably be "working" also...just no fucks to give today... 'D
	4:16pm Spinning Giant: ** ;D
	👻 4:30pm Micheal: Joey with the surfboard is such a great picture! Thanks for the interview with Roberta!

	4:37pm Marie: I drove a big buick from Chicago to New York (a car transport) listening to this album on cassette over and over
	4:38pm sufferwords: thanks Todd- library of congress style interview
	4:39pm rob duprey: yipes missed the boat? cool pic. as I remember
	4:39pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Duprey! Thanks to Duncan Hannah you are infamous!
	4:39pm stuntz: Love the Mink Mr.O-Phonic!
	4:40pm johnk77: rip willy & manfred
	4:41pm franz: Hey Todd! Beautiful show last week, really enjoyed the Reminder Records feature. Got some Gin, some tonic, and celebrating saturday noght with your show!
	4:41pm phat: I really need to listen to more Mink Deville. He's the one from that scene I know the least. But everytime I hear him I freaking love it.
	4:41pm rob duprey: infamous. I was pretty obnoxious as a youngster. He asked me if it was OK to write the stuff, I said let er rip. Truth in advertising
	4:42pm phat: They, I should say
	4:42pm rob duprey: good show
	4:43pm phat: Great interview, by the way. If I had a time machine, I'd go back to NYC from like 1970 to like 1990, repeatedly.
	4:43pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Rob. If you weren't obnoxious as a youngster you probably weren't doing it right.
	4:44pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @franz: Thanks a lot!!!
	4:45pm johnk77: the truth is that after cbgbs heyday willy deville responded negatively to any questions about that venue even though he moved his band from california back to nyc to get in on that scene
	4:45pm rollycoaster: Everything sounds so slow to me today. Need to see about these meds
	4:46pm Ross T.: Being addicted to heroin never sounded so good!
	4:46pm phat: Goddamn, Chinese Rocks. This song is emblematic of a time in my life. Thank God I wasn't doing what the song is about.
	👻 4:46pm nealac: Great show and interview, Todd! I really enjoy having this show to look forward to as the winter days creep by.
	4:47pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @nealac: Thanks! Glad to be of help!
	4:48pm joe mulligan: Roberta mentioned Joey posing with a surfboard as a "fantasy" type shot.. He was probably the world's first surf punk poser!
	4:49pm phat: I do so love punk rock. And this recent hip re-evaluation of the Sex Pistols as being a "boy band" is BS.
	4:49pm Joey joe joe: “Head breakers —ha
	👻 4:49pm Cacophone Jeff: Hey Todd-o-phonic! Been listening on the phone app all day, but had to jump on the computer to say how much I enjoyed that interview and this entire set! Thank you so much, as always! Cheers to all!
	4:50pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: There is still one interview segment left!
	4:50pm johnk77: very entertaining show selecter

	4:50pm Joana: Saw John Lydon touring in around 2014 and it was fantastic
	4:51pm stuntz: Todd Saves.
	4:51pm phat: @Todd-o-phonic Todd sweet!
	4:52pm phat: @Joana got to see PiL at a little club here in Lincoln, NE in 2015 and it was phenomenal.
	4:53pm Creature Boy: Haha @stuntz
	4:53pm Creature Boy: Jello everbody
	4:55pm medson: Sometimes it hurts
	4:55pm DonJuanTijuana: What is this Demo?? I never heard this before.
	4:56pm Joana: @Phat--yeah, that must have been the tour--I saw him in Chicago and felt so grateful to be able to see him live--truly fantastic
	👻 4:56pm Hackensack Slim: This divided by 2 equals 2 great songs.
	4:57pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @DonJuanTijuana: Apparently recorded in Yonkers in '76. With Hell obviously.
	4:58pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Jeff Conolly played piano on The Real Kids version of "Roberta".
	4:58pm phat: @Joana it really was fantastic. I was pissed at myself because I didn't realize who was playing guitar for him until later.
	4:59pm Matt: Great show! Love the interviews and history.
	4:59pm Joana: @phat--who was the guitarist?
	5:02pm DonJuanTijuana: No doubt Monoman was multi-talented...one of my favorite live performers
	5:05pm Stevel: I'd forgotten/didn't know, she went on the SP tour. Wow.

	5:22pm George in WO: Really interesting interview, Todd! Thanks. It might inspire me to go buy a camera!
	5:22pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: The Midnight Hour...when Kolchak: The Night Stalker is on MeTV!
	5:22pm McGroovey: Great interviooo
	5:22pm bill hanke: Pig Pen knows.
	5:24pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: George in WO: Ha!
	5:24pm phat: I gotta say, as a newish convert from the anti-Dead world, this is terrible. They really got a lot better.
	5:25pm chresti: My landlady is a photographer, shot pics of Nick Cave, L7, Green Day, other LA artists...in the 90s and 00s
	5:26pm rollycoaster: The only dead that matters to me is Pigpen Dead
	5:27pm McGroovey: I don't think it's terrible. Would have been better with more guitar solos and fewer reps of vamps on the "in the midnight hour" line.
	5:27pm bill hanke: when Please Kill Me came out audience Q&A i asked Legs about the Dead being original punks and he got mad. weird clothes, weird hair, drugs, dancing, anti-social = PUNK!
	5:27pm McGroovey: But it is getting to be to long already. I'm crying "uncle!"
	5:28pm rollycoaster: Yeah they got so “good” that their final form is The Oldies Revue with John Mayer
	5:28pm McGroovey: Too My auto-correct is my enemy.
	5:29pm phat: @McGroovey it just seems aimless and the vocals... I mean, I'm sure people love this. I've heard plenty Dead that I've really dug, though. Actually, on the Avant Ghetto.
	5:29pm Elle Tor's Husband: The Dead would have been a lot different band if Pigpen had lived. I hear a more British Invasion thing with his vocals
	5:30pm Matt Fiveash: Having a rave up with the Grateful Dead
	5:30pm rollycoaster: 70s Dead is as abysmal as it gets, with very few exceptions. They only got worse from there. Now they are literally the Rock A Fire Explosion Band. Pigpen was the heart and soul of this band. When he died, they died.
	5:31pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Matt Fiveash: Maybe rave down?
	5:31pm McGroovey: You feel alright. I believe you. Now stop. I got it.
	5:31pm Frank Zaatar: Actualy, this is the least irritating Pigpen rap I've ever heard. But then again, I'm theguy who was sorry when Tom Constanten left the band.
	5:32pm Mr C: Hey, that guitar player could've been a contender if he stuck to it..
	5:32pm rollycoaster: @Elle Tor EXACTLY. They were such a high energy band at that time. Some sets rival the MC5. 4/22/69 at the Ark in Boston is a great example of this.
	5:33pm Vistavision: You rock well Todd!
	5:33pm rollycoaster: @McGroovy do more drugs
	5:34pm Matt Fiveash: They should have waited till there was no one else around to do this one
	5:34pm Michael Shelley: Wow!
	5:34pm Josephine: I used to party with Jerry in the 60s. boy do I love the big hairy zaftig rockers ;)
	5:35pm phat: I may actually be going back to my hating the Dead place again. Lol. No.
	👻 5:36pm Frank In Queens: Wow, I'm surprised that version didn't take us right to the end of the show!
	5:36pm McGroovey: I saw Tom Constanten playing a solo improv set(or maybe in a duo with Oliver Lake?) at the Leonard St Knitting Factory, opening for someone else (don't remember who). I do remember being surprised that Tom C and Oliver weren't actually good, or at least they weren't that night.
	5:36pm 8track: Lol, zaftig rockers - how about Popa Chubby? :o)
	5:36pm phat: Jeff! His Sunday came along for me at a perfect time.
	5:37pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Frank In Queens: Cheryl thought it was going to take us to the midnight hour.
	5:39pm Mr C: Amen to that Todd!
	5:40pm Elle Tor's Husband: All said and done I love the Dead. I'm an old Punk Rocker so to admit that is sacrilege. Scarlet Begonias baby!
	5:41pm Andres: Great interview, Todd! And enjoyed the Conklin shout out! Some great Sunday nights were had with his show.
	👻 5:42pm Frank In Queens: This Cub Scout Bowling Pins EP is better than the last proper GBV album.
	5:42pm DjLorraine: Cool interview again TY
	5:42pm phat: @Andres I bought more records after hearing them on his show last year than really just about anything else.
	5:42pm patrick321: Hey Todd I've been in my car so late to the board but I really enjoyed the interview.
	5:42pm rollycoaster: I only really care about the first few records but aside from those I am totally ok with never hearing the Dead again. In fact, I would support legislation to put a moratorium on them as it seems to be a societal problem again
	5:44pm Dennis Diken: really dug the interview, swell show all around Todd! as per....
	5:44pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Dennis! Can't wait for Denny's Den on The Rock and Soul Stream Wednesday at 2!
	5:45pm McGroovey: I'm looking forward to the rumored imminent Teenage Fanclub album. I love all their records. Well, except The King.
	5:49pm ledzeppelinsucks: Flip Your Wig is top notch.
	5:50pm Micheal: This Husker record saved me when I was 24 or so.
