	10:26pm David Shortell: That wasn’t the same Inmates as the 1960’s group from my nearby town Oceanport, was it? I first discovered them via the cover of their “Fakirs and Thieves” done by Laughing Soup Dish, whose frontman knows them personally.

	11:09pm slugluv1313: hiya Gaylord!. agreed! @10:41 🐱🐱🐱
	11:10pm Carmichael: There was a reason I liked Souther Hillman Furey. This may have something indirectly to do with that.

	11:14pm LesleyK: Amyl amd Sniffers were on Seth Meyers show.

	11:20pm chresti: Hi Mike Sin Optical Sound show!
	11:20pm slugluv1313: oh yes! Amyl on Seth Meyers! was kinda feeling a (mild!) Wendy O. Williams vibe (someone else too but blanking out right now)
	11:20pm Saddlesoap: I am digging’ you show. Have you heard of a band from Seattle 1990s called Tube Top? I think you would like it.
	11:23pm Candy-O'67: Lesley, I found out about it from two different people after the fact! One of my besties who also works for me and my dad (she does our billing invoices), she posted some pics from the Chats show. She and her husband took their 14 and 6 yr old daughters! I said, I wish I would have known about that show. Her response was "Oh, I didn't know you liked White Trash punk from Australia"! I was like well, of course I do, cracking up!! I think she thinks I'm only into '60's garage at this point or psych! 😅😅😅
	11:23pm slugluv1313: hiya chresti!
	11:23pm Andres: Was that a Day Tripper riff back near the beginning of this Yes song?
	11:24pm Carmichael: I played in a band that opened for Yes. I clearly saw champagne chugging. Clearly.
	11:24pm P-90: Andres: Yes
	11:24pm slugluv1313: hi Candy-O'67!
	11:24pm Carmichael: Colin.
	11:24pm chresti: Hi slugluv!
	11:24pm coelacanth∅: hi Candy!
	11:25pm Candy-O'67: Hey chresti! Good to see you. You've just made the female ratio go up tonight on the chat! 😁
	11:25pm slugluv1313: heya HyperDose, Carmichael!

	11:29pm chresti: Hi coel! Candy O!
	11:29pm slugluv1313: hi patrick321! wondering the same, re: 1970s, 80s clubs, dancefloors -- how many of us crossed paths back than?
	11:29pm Candy-O'67: I'm sure they will, Lesley. I know they usually play Austin when they come to the States. I need to pay closer attention next time!😄
	11:30pm Andres: Candy-O: Taking kids to a Chats concert. I like that parenting!
	11:30pm slugluv1313: hi coela!
	11:30pm LesleyK: Chats are playing here this Saturday! At Warsaw
	11:32pm slugluv1313: @Candy-O -- yikes! not a whole lot of us females here?!?
	11:33pm Bergey: Thanks mike sin and gaylord this has been a great show
	11:33pm patrick321: @slugluv very likely we did I came to NYC in 1978, was at NYU until the mudd club killed my grad school career.
	11:34pm Candy-O'67: I know, Andres! Me, too! Their 6 yr old, her first show! She had on big ear protectors and was on her 6'4" dad's shoulders with a big grin on her face! So cute!!
	11:34pm babybabu: @slugluv is that your cat in your profile? Theyre so cute!!
	11:34pm Mike Sin: @slugluv - All this speed metal I'm playing drives away the females!
	11:34pm Gaylord Fields: @Bergey: I hope you stay on the healthy side of the covid equation — I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.
	11:34pm Candy-O'67: Nice, Lesley! I'll be in New Orleans at Jazz Fest. Can't wait! So many great acts are playing this yr!
	11:36pm Paulo AD: BTW EID Mubarak all :)
	11:37pm babybabu: Eid Mubarak!!

	11:41pm Candy-O'67: Yeah, you gotta go some day, Lesley. It's a cool city. Stay off Bourbon Street, though. Frenchman is way cooler and lots of cool shops and places to eat on Magazine Street
	11:42pm LesleyK: I'll hit you up for suggestions Candy...whenever that may be 😊
	11:44pm LesleyK: Ravi Coltrane is playing a low key free show at Mama Tried this Wed. that's as jazzy as I'll get this week (if I make it out)

	11:47pm Candy-O'67: Sounds good Lesley
	11:51pm Andres: Mike Sin, takin’ care of business with a split shift today! A healthy break in between shows thankfully :)
	11:52pm Candy-O'67: Lesley, Jazz Fest in New Orleans is all kids of music, not just jazz. Jazz isn't really my thing at all. Google it and check out the lineup from next Thursday to Saturday. You'll trip! 11 stages, I heard. I've been a couple of times, but never 4 days. Gonna be wild! I'm glad we are staying with my sis.
	11:54pm LesleyK: Ah I had no idea Candy....I'll look that up tomorrow. Sounds cool! I'm fading here..past my bed time . haha
	11:55pm slugluv1313: @patrick321 -- i was at school in NJ, but in NYC as much as possible -- & iirc, EFD was at NYU at that time too . . . ahh Le Club Mudd -- fancy condos now -- there is a plaque on the building, but i gotta wonder if anyone who lives there is even aware
	11:55pm Joe B: contact high - one of the all-time great b-sides!
	11:55pm Candy-O'67: I figured, Lesley. Have a good rest😁
	11:56pm LesleyK: Thanks Mike!! Have a great night all....

	11:09pm slugluv1313: hiya Gaylord!. agreed! @10:41 🐱🐱🐱

	11:23pm Candy-O'67: Lesley, I found out about it from two different people after the fact! One of my besties who also works for me and my dad (she does our billing invoices), she posted some pics from the Chats show. She and her husband took their 14 and 6 yr old daughters! I said, I wish I would have known about that show. Her response was "Oh, I didn't know you liked White Trash punk from Australia"! I was like well, of course I do, cracking up!! I think she thinks I'm only into '60's garage at this point or psych! 😅😅😅
	11:23pm slugluv1313: hiya chresti!
	11:23pm Andres: Was that a Day Tripper riff back near the beginning of this Yes song?
	11:24pm Carmichael: I played in a band that opened for Yes. I clearly saw champagne chugging. Clearly.
	11:24pm P-90: Andres: Yes
	11:24pm slugluv1313: hi Candy-O'67!

	11:29pm chresti: Hi coel! Candy O!
	11:29pm slugluv1313: hi patrick321! wondering the same, re: 1970s, 80s clubs, dancefloors -- how many of us crossed paths back than?
	11:29pm Candy-O'67: I'm sure they will, Lesley. I know they usually play Austin when they come to the States. I need to pay closer attention next time!😄
	11:30pm Andres: Candy-O: Taking kids to a Chats concert. I like that parenting!
	11:30pm slugluv1313: hi coela!
	11:30pm LesleyK: Chats are playing here this Saturday! At Warsaw
	11:32pm slugluv1313: @Candy-O -- yikes! not a whole lot of us females here?!?
	11:33pm Bergey: Thanks mike sin and gaylord this has been a great show
	11:33pm patrick321: @slugluv very likely we did I came to NYC in 1978, was at NYU until the mudd club killed my grad school career.
	11:34pm Candy-O'67: I know, Andres! Me, too! Their 6 yr old, her first show! She had on big ear protectors and was on her 6'4" dad's shoulders with a big grin on her face! So cute!!
	11:34pm babybabu: @slugluv is that your cat in your profile? Theyre so cute!!
	11:34pm Mike Sin: @slugluv - All this speed metal I'm playing drives away the females!
	11:34pm Gaylord Fields: @Bergey: I hope you stay on the healthy side of the covid equation — I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.
	11:34pm Candy-O'67: Nice, Lesley! I'll be in New Orleans at Jazz Fest. Can't wait! So many great acts are playing this yr!

	11:41pm Candy-O'67: Yeah, you gotta go some day, Lesley. It's a cool city. Stay off Bourbon Street, though. Frenchman is way cooler and lots of cool shops and places to eat on Magazine Street
	11:42pm LesleyK: I'll hit you up for suggestions Candy...whenever that may be 😊

	11:52pm Candy-O'67: Lesley, Jazz Fest in New Orleans is all kids of music, not just jazz. Jazz isn't really my thing at all. Google it and check out the lineup from next Thursday to Saturday. You'll trip! 11 stages, I heard. I've been a couple of times, but never 4 days. Gonna be wild! I'm glad we are staying with my sis.
	11:54pm LesleyK: Ah I had no idea Candy....I'll look that up tomorrow. Sounds cool! I'm fading here..past my bed time . haha
	11:55pm slugluv1313: @patrick321 -- i was at school in NJ, but in NYC as much as possible -- & iirc, EFD was at NYU at that time too . . . ahh Le Club Mudd -- fancy condos now -- there is a plaque on the building, but i gotta wonder if anyone who lives there is even aware
	11:55pm Joe B: contact high - one of the all-time great b-sides!
	11:55pm Candy-O'67: I figured, Lesley. Have a good rest😁
