	11:17pm Scott67: HyperD, I drink a lot of water. But why so much before bed mate? Are you entering a bed wetting competition?💦
	11:18pm spodiodi: lol Scott67
	11:18pm Bruce S.: Imjust lost in this set
	11:18pm northguineahills: MBV!
	11:19pm northguineahills: now, if I can just da 'Lab, I can fill out my fave pop bingo card......
	11:20pm Jim the Poet: Ha ha
	11:20pm Mod Mokka Matti: Hello Jim, from the currently soggy Pacific Northwest. I usually tune in to go underground with Ray Boogie, but I just have to say (after stealth listening for the past 90 minutes or so) that this has been a great playlist so far! You continue to hit the right spot tonight, in welcome contrast to a day that's been a bit of an emotional challenge for me. Please keep on keepin' on!
	11:22pm HyperDose: No Scott, just got lazy today and napped with the cat. Need to make it up so I can log it in my fitness tracker for validation!
	11:23pm Scott67: Hang in there Matti!✌😎💜
	11:23pm northguineahills: yes, MBV is pop to my ears, and beautiful at that....(I"ve spent way too much time researching them).
	11:23pm Jim the Poet: Thanks for hanging around MMM and everyone
	11:25pm northguineahills: word, Matti: I finally got my unemployment extemsion today. So, I can just take a deep breath, finally. Hope you're well.
	11:25pm metal machine chad from oregon: My corner of the Pacific Northwest is dry and entirely uneventful, outside of JTM and the occasional Metal Machine Music talk tonight.
	11:25pm Scott67: What is 64oz in real liquid measurement?
	11:26pm Undead83: Gosh, would it be possible to play 'The Only One I know' tonight?
	11:26pm northguineahills: Saw Xiu Xiu live, once. fun small show. I had a neighbor in Gainesville w/ a Xiu Xiu bumper sticker, and new I was in the right neighborhood.
	11:26pm spodiodi: 1.818436
	11:26pm HyperDose: Oh yeah, metric haha 2 litres, Scott
	11:27pm Scobot: Xiu Xiu! Always entertaining. Honestly, great tune!
	11:28pm Mr. Pumpy: Xiu Xiu are good. They do things I like.
	11:28pm still b/p: Xiu Xiu sounds like early to mid 70s Bryan Ferry...a bit, eh?
	11:28pm Scott67: 1.89 to be precise. That's not gonna make for a good night's sleep HyperD. I'd be lying to you bit of tech if I were you mate.
	11:28pm northguineahills: wait, w/ Sharon van Etten???!!!!
	11:29pm Undead83: ><((*>
	11:29pm Eric the Hat: Hey Jim! Been loving yr show tonight, thank you.
	11:29pm chresti: Maybe a little, still b/p.
	11:30pm northguineahills: Aren't they now know as the Charlatans UK due to a ceratain lawsuit from the 60s psyche Charlatans?
	11:30pm Bruce S.: Undead83 right on
	11:30pm Scobot: still b/p, you’re right!
	11:30pm Jim the Poet: I thought they were Charlatans UK. Did they make the other Charlatans change their names???
	11:31pm Scott67: This is Stone Roses surely??
	11:32pm Scobot: I can’t help but think of Stone Roses when I hear C/UK.
	11:32pm devlawn: who were the other charlatans? In Canada the band Bush was called Bush(x)
	11:32pm northguineahills: I just remember in the album releases after this one, they all said the Charlatans UK (sort of like how Suede had to change their name to the London Suede)>
	11:33pm patrick321: Thanks for a great show, Jim. I haven't been on the board but listened all the way. Fun and interesting.
	11:33pm metal machine chad from oregon: I was surprised that Charlatans NZ were folk punk with washtubs and banjos and all of that kind of thing.
	11:34pm yippie: can you play oppai ga ippai off youtube its in Japanese
	11:34pm spodiodi: clap clap clap thanks, Jim
	11:35pm i kョ: More shoegaze please, if you get a chance!
	11:35pm Mod Mokka Matti: Nice that you're playing the very first Charlatans track that got me hooked all those years ago, when it first dropped. I remember picking that cassette single up at the same time as Blur's "There's No Other Way" single on tape.
	11:35pm Jason from Houston: +:꒰◍• ᴗ •◍꒱:+
	11:35pm northguineahills: merci, Scott et jim! (love the Stone Roses).
	11:35pm Mod Mokka Matti: Oh, and now to another foundational part of my college/uni years. <3
	11:36pm Scott67: The difference is soooo obvious! 😉
	11:36pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	11:36pm spodiodi: Dear Jim The Poet, more anything, please
	11:37pm devlawn: I thought the cool Ghouls sounded like Sloan.
	11:37pm northguineahills: Anything by Lush or Stereolab.
	11:37pm spodiodi: but if you could play Don't Look Away by The Helio Sequence, i'll click my heels together
	11:37pm derya: La lune est libre
	11:37pm Bruce S.: This show has put me in a very good mood
	11:38pm Jason from Houston: Seconding northguineahills for Lush.
	11:38pm northguineahills: I'm w/ spodi.....(play whatever the bloody eff you want).

	11:51pm phat in Lincoln: Sometimes I think Stereolab are the greatest band ever.
	11:51pm Scobot: Pure bliss! Thank you! Yes, Mary Hansen, RIP.
	11:52pm Mod Mokka Matti: Oh heck yes! The Groop that makes magic. And to think that it's been 25 years (within the next few days) that I was a mere few feet from Laetitia and Mary (RIP) when they played in the Viking Student Union of WWU in Bellingham where I was a student, on the Emperor Tomato Ketchup tour. One of the best early birthday presents I ever gave to myself.
	11:53pm northguineahills: (however, me mixing Brian Eno w/ Ravi Shanktar w/ minimal techno beats didn't go as well...
	11:53pm Scobot: I never tire of them, phat in Lincoln.
	11:53pm Bruce S.: combed my hat and brushed my hair
	11:54pm Jinx: thanks, Jim!

	11:20pm Jim the Poet: Ha ha
	11:20pm Mod Mokka Matti: Hello Jim, from the currently soggy Pacific Northwest. I usually tune in to go underground with Ray Boogie, but I just have to say (after stealth listening for the past 90 minutes or so) that this has been a great playlist so far! You continue to hit the right spot tonight, in welcome contrast to a day that's been a bit of an emotional challenge for me. Please keep on keepin' on!
	11:22pm HyperDose: No Scott, just got lazy today and napped with the cat. Need to make it up so I can log it in my fitness tracker for validation!
	11:23pm Scott67: Hang in there Matti!✌😎💜
	11:23pm northguineahills: yes, MBV is pop to my ears, and beautiful at that....(I"ve spent way too much time researching them).
	11:23pm Jim the Poet: Thanks for hanging around MMM and everyone
	11:25pm northguineahills: word, Matti: I finally got my unemployment extemsion today. So, I can just take a deep breath, finally. Hope you're well.
	11:25pm metal machine chad from oregon: My corner of the Pacific Northwest is dry and entirely uneventful, outside of JTM and the occasional Metal Machine Music talk tonight.
	11:25pm Scott67: What is 64oz in real liquid measurement?
	11:26pm Undead83: Gosh, would it be possible to play 'The Only One I know' tonight?

	11:26pm HyperDose: Oh yeah, metric haha 2 litres, Scott
	11:27pm Scobot: Xiu Xiu! Always entertaining. Honestly, great tune!
	11:28pm Mr. Pumpy: Xiu Xiu are good. They do things I like.
	11:28pm still b/p: Xiu Xiu sounds like early to mid 70s Bryan Ferry...a bit, eh?
	11:28pm Scott67: 1.89 to be precise. That's not gonna make for a good night's sleep HyperD. I'd be lying to you bit of tech if I were you mate.

	11:29pm Undead83: ><((*>
	11:29pm Eric the Hat: Hey Jim! Been loving yr show tonight, thank you.

	11:30pm northguineahills: Aren't they now know as the Charlatans UK due to a ceratain lawsuit from the 60s psyche Charlatans?
	11:30pm Bruce S.: Undead83 right on
	11:30pm Scobot: still b/p, you’re right!
	11:30pm Jim the Poet: I thought they were Charlatans UK. Did they make the other Charlatans change their names???
	11:31pm Scott67: This is Stone Roses surely??
	11:32pm Scobot: I can’t help but think of Stone Roses when I hear C/UK.
	11:32pm devlawn: who were the other charlatans? In Canada the band Bush was called Bush(x)
	11:32pm northguineahills: I just remember in the album releases after this one, they all said the Charlatans UK (sort of like how Suede had to change their name to the London Suede)>
	11:33pm patrick321: Thanks for a great show, Jim. I haven't been on the board but listened all the way. Fun and interesting.
	11:33pm metal machine chad from oregon: I was surprised that Charlatans NZ were folk punk with washtubs and banjos and all of that kind of thing.

	11:35pm Jason from Houston: +:꒰◍• ᴗ •◍꒱:+
	11:35pm northguineahills: merci, Scott et jim! (love the Stone Roses).

	11:52pm Mod Mokka Matti: Oh heck yes! The Groop that makes magic. And to think that it's been 25 years (within the next few days) that I was a mere few feet from Laetitia and Mary (RIP) when they played in the Viking Student Union of WWU in Bellingham where I was a student, on the Emperor Tomato Ketchup tour. One of the best early birthday presents I ever gave to myself.
	11:53pm northguineahills: (however, me mixing Brian Eno w/ Ravi Shanktar w/ minimal techno beats didn't go as well...
