	3:03pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Happy Birthday to Ted Hughes!
	3:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - <3
	3:04pm Domenic: Music reminds me of "Planet of the Apes" Jerry Goldsmith?
	3:04pm Mr Fab: Yo GG! "Metallic Agony"? Damn, now THAT is a promising title to kick off any show.

	3:04pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello, Mr Fabulous! :-) I like to grab you from the get-go :-)
	3:05pm MHLee: Planet of the Apes has a haunting soundtrack
	3:05pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @MHLee - That and "The Andromeda Strain". LOVE that soundtrack
	3:08pm Rich in Washington: Digging these explorations of Vandroogenbroeck. His Biomechanoid is one of my all time favorite Euro weirdness LPs.
	3:08pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - I've become obsessed with his music. Truly stunning artist <3 I'm slowly building up a collection :-)
	3:09pm Mike Rogers: Hi DJ Georgy Girl san!
	3:09pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi, Mike san! :-)
	3:10pm worldsworstrecords: You do like this Joel Vandroogenbroeck geezer, don't you?
	3:11pm worldsworstrecords: Amazing stuff
	3:11pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Darryl - Thank you, lovely! <3
	3:11pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Darryl - He's rather good ;-)
	3:11pm Erin in TO: I'm not familiar with Ted Hughes, but I'm loving this. Will have to check him out now
	3:11pm worldsworstrecords: he's exceptional
	3:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Erin - So glad you're enjoying it! :-) He was Poet Laureate :-)
	3:12pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ted Hughes: en.wikipedia.org...
	3:12pm StringOFperils: Happy words. Love it. I've been on a John Berryman kick lately, so the pain is familiar. Crawling through the ground glass of the confessional
	3:12pm Rich in Washington: I was only familiar with that aforementioned LP - I think I may have learned of it via the Nurse With Wound list - but didn't know until fairly recently that he was a prolific library music producer.
	3:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I figured that light music didn't really fit the words ;-) Lol
	3:13pm Erin in TO: I love poetry when I find it, but don't have a lot of exposure. I've been trying to change that, currently making my way through a volume of Margaret Atwood's poetry
	3:13pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @SOp - We did Ted Hughes and Betjamin and the First World War poets at school and it really opened my eyes up <3
	3:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - It's a wonderful rabbit hole! :-)
	3:14pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Erin - Oh!!! I need to do a Margaret Atwood Modernists! <3
	3:14pm StringOFperils: It has a lot to do with the worlds we actually live in, and often won't look at.
	3:15pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @SOp - Exactly! That's perfect <3
	3:15pm Feldy: Hey Georgy!
	3:16pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hello, lovely Adam!! <3
	3:16pm Erin in TO: @DJ GG I'm reading through Dearly, a fairly recent one, and it is beautifully heartbreaking. Was reading it on the subway and fighting not to sob on the train
	3:17pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Erin - You might like these <3 www.wfmu.org... www.wfmu.org...
	3:17pm WM: @Erin in TO: Try reading Ezra Pound. Much of his later potery is very difficult, but his earlier work is very accessible and you learn alot about other poets from reading him'
	3:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Hi WM! :-)
	3:18pm Erin in TO: @DJ GG thanks, bookmarked for future listening @WM I know I did a bit of EP back in highschool, I'll have to revisit it with my much more experienced eyes now
	3:18pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Erin - <3
	3:19pm WM: Hello. This is the first time I've listened to your show. Are the reading from Joel Vandroogenbroec?
	3:20pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @WM - I'm reading Ted Hughes' poetry (it's his birthday today) and the music is a selection of Joel VDB's library music :-) <3
	3:21pm WM: @Erin in TO: Start with the ABC of Reading by EP.
	3:22pm WM: I should have guessed by the photo you posted.
	3:23pm Erin in TO: Thanks WM, will find it in my library here!
	3:23pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @WM - :-)
	3:26pm WM: @Erin in TO: There is a lot of information about EP online.
	3:29pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'm imagining you all settled in armchairs :-)
	3:30pm Erin in TO: I wish...I'm at my desk, working from home
	3:30pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Erin - Hopefully, I'm giving you a bit of relaxation in the middle of work :-)
	3:31pm Erin in TO: @DJ GG I'm taking it as easy as I can hah
	3:31pm Mike Rogers: The only EP poem that really matters to me: Well, since my baby left me, Well, I found a new place to dwell, Well, it's down at the end of lonely street at Heartbreak Hotel" You can search for the rest of the poem. It was one of EP's most popular! You can thank me later! ;)
	3:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Erin - <3
	3:32pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - :-)
	3:34pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Ooo, we're going a bit proggy now! ;-)
	3:34pm WM: @Mike Rogers: I had a different EP in mind, but I like your suggestion.
	3:35pm Erin in TO: lol @ Mike
	3:35pm Mr Fab: I'm not working from home. I'm working from work.
	3:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Did Elvis ever release an EP? Was there ever an EP EP? :-D
	3:35pm Mike Rogers: Oh! Sorry.
	3:35pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - Naughty work! Come hide in the airing cupboard :-) I'll pass you cake and tea :-)
	3:36pm Mike Rogers: Hey, DJ GG san. I have an idea, why don't you do next week's show singing like Yoko Ono. Now that will be frightening!
	3:36pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - What makes you think I don't already? ;-) Lol
	3:36pm Mike Rogers: Thanks WM san! Thanks Erin san!
	3:37pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I've always said that I can't sing, but I can shout in tune :-)
	3:37pm Mike Rogers: Ever see that Chuck Berry playing with Yoko? That's hilarious!
	3:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: There is a bit of my singing on Sheena :-) Spacebrother and I did a "Ram" show and we sang "Ram On" together while he played the ukulele <3
	3:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - Have you had any more progress on the interview?
	3:38pm WM: @DJ GG: How is it that I am only hearing your show for the first time today? I've thought for a long time there should be more poetry on WFMU. My idea would be to post the poem on the comments board, read it aloud and then invite comments. I'll check out your archives.
	3:38pm Mike Rogers: "Ah! Ah! Ohhhhh, ohhhhh, ohhhh, Yee, yea, Ugh, ugh, ugh...." Damn! that is some deep stuff!
	3:39pm Mike Rogers: What interview?
	3:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @WM - I'm so pleased you're here! :-) If you have ANY suggestions for poets, poems, books, etc, do message me!
	3:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - Yoko :-)
	3:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yes, I just said "country" like Tim Curry. Lol.
	3:40pm Mike Rogers: You mean DJ GG's fab interview? It's done. Published. Out the door. They sent you a copy. It hits UK stores pretty soon (Rough Trade and a bunch of others)
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - I actually squealed when that arrived :-)
	3:41pm Mr Fab: Mike, I think GG is referring to your Yoko documentary?
	3:41pm Mike Rogers: Oh,Yoko? Well, I can't say much. She is almost 90 and not very well.
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Speaking of ... I'm in the latest edition of Second Scene Magazine, interviewed by the fabulous Mike Rogers!! :-) www.secondscenemagazine.com
	3:42pm Mike Rogers: The Yoko Ono movie shooting starts Sept 2, 2022. It will be a mind blowing Avant Guard experience.
	3:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - I'm looking forward to it! <3
	3:42pm Mike Rogers: Your name is at the TOP!!!!!
	3:43pm Mike Rogers: You got the magazine already??? That is very fast!!!
	3:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - I'm still thrilled by that <3
	3:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - Right? I was not expecting it to arrive that quickly!!
	3:43pm StringOFperils: Heavy company. Chuffed much?
	3:43pm Rich in Washington: John Lennon marrying Yoko One broke up the Fluxus Movement. There. I said it.
	3:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @SOp - Absolutely flabbergasted!! :-) I'm in a magazine with Pamela Des Barres!! <3
	3:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - Bold words ;-) Lol
	3:44pm Rich in Washington: Not really but sort of serious. Yoko bashing by Beatle fanboys made me type that.
	3:45pm Mr Fab: Remember Flan-fans, Flannery has moved to a NEW TIME, 8-9pm, but same day, from now on. Instead of "New Flanland" following this here show ever Wed, you can luxuriate in the Sheena stream for an hour until the rock-xotic sounds of Mike Rogers takes over.
	3:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - I saw a Fluxus retrospective in Brighton years ago and it was wonderful. It makes me sad that Yoko's art get sidelined
	3:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - I've got a video call today but I might DJ live next week :-)
	3:46pm Rich in Washington: You mean you're gonna DJ live in the gap? Woah! Yeah!
	3:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - Next week. Maybe :-) It's so much fun <3
	3:47pm Rich in Washington: Don-O's not on this week and I'm sorta tempted to do a completely unplanned set somewhere in the gap. No promises (or, this isn't a threat).
	3:48pm Mr Fab: Live from the Gap! But not the store. (I'm assuming)
	3:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - Go for it!!! :-)
	3:48pm Mike Rogers: Did you guys know that Yoko's mom and dad were ultra rich? They were the upper echelon of Japanese aristocracy. The dad was the first Japanese to open Japanese bank in the USA in history! (It was in New York). I suspect that when she told her parent she wanted to marry John Lennon, they were vehemently against it. She graduated from an elite Ivy University. He didn't'even graduate from College. That would make any Japanese parents totally against this marriage! (this is my conjecture!)
	3:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - Weren't they opposed to her first marriage as well? I seem to remember reading that somewhere
	3:49pm Mr Fab: Interesting, Mike. All I know about Yoko's youth was - didn't her family survive Hiroshima?
	3:49pm StringOFperils: Fluxus was all about immaterial, non-commercial, impermanent, impossible to possess non-sequitirs in Capitalism, so I doubt that Yoko really gives a shite about her artworld creds...but, then, the giftshop is a pomo addition and notoriety IS art now I suppose
	3:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - I'd heard that as well
	3:55pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, I've read bits of Yoko's bio. Its fascinating. Her pre-Lennon art career was really interesting, as was most of Fluxus' roster. Fun fact: Beck's grandfather Al Hansen was also a key Fluxus member.
	3:55pm Mike Rogers: "I suppose" Yeah. That's right. I don't know about Hiroshima. Yoko Grew up in Tokyo, that's all I know.
	3:56pm Phillippe: Thanks DJGG!
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you, lovely Phillippe! :-)
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: I'll be back on Friday at 4 pm with two hours of fabulousness on the Flange & Frigate - it's the joint birthday of Ginger Baker and Ian Gillan! Yippee! www.wfmu.org...
	3:56pm Rich in Washington: Wonderful show today, GG! Another I will be revisiting!
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you so much, my lovely Rich!! <3
	3:57pm StringOFperils: Japan had its own GUTAI Group
	3:57pm Rich in Washington: I'll be there in my fur vest!
	3:57pm Mike Rogers: Thanks DJ GG san!
	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - Groovy!! :-)
	3:57pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you Mike san! <3
	3:58pm WM: I remember reading Pike a long time ago. The line "killers from the egg" sticks in my mind.
	3:58pm StringOFperils: Thank you Georgy Girl. Keepin' it highbrow. And great library music. A revelation.
	3:58pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @WM - It's glorious, isn't it? :-)
	3:59pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you, lovely SOp!! <3
	3:59pm Erin in TO: Thank you DJ GG, this has been a delight
	4:00pm Mr Fab: GG is the best-est!
	4:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you so much, Erin!! <3
	4:00pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Huge hugs to YOU, Mr Fab! <3
	4:00pm Domenic: Lovely set. Now, after 4 hours of Sheena my brain needs a rest. ;')
	4:01pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you, Dom!! <3
	4:01pm Mike Rogers: Mike Rogers Show starts in one hour. Japanese bands covering your fave songs!
	4:10pm Mr. Oxford: Thank you DJ JJ for a wonderful show!
	4:10pm Mr. Oxford: *DJ GG

	3:38pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - Have you had any more progress on the interview?
	3:38pm WM: @DJ GG: How is it that I am only hearing your show for the first time today? I've thought for a long time there should be more poetry on WFMU. My idea would be to post the poem on the comments board, read it aloud and then invite comments. I'll check out your archives.
	3:38pm Mike Rogers: "Ah! Ah! Ohhhhh, ohhhhh, ohhhh, Yee, yea, Ugh, ugh, ugh...." Damn! that is some deep stuff!
	3:39pm Mike Rogers: What interview?
	3:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @WM - I'm so pleased you're here! :-) If you have ANY suggestions for poets, poems, books, etc, do message me!
	3:39pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - Yoko :-)
	3:40pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Yes, I just said "country" like Tim Curry. Lol.
	3:40pm Mike Rogers: You mean DJ GG's fab interview? It's done. Published. Out the door. They sent you a copy. It hits UK stores pretty soon (Rough Trade and a bunch of others)
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - I actually squealed when that arrived :-)
	3:41pm Mr Fab: Mike, I think GG is referring to your Yoko documentary?
	3:41pm Mike Rogers: Oh,Yoko? Well, I can't say much. She is almost 90 and not very well.
	3:41pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Speaking of ... I'm in the latest edition of Second Scene Magazine, interviewed by the fabulous Mike Rogers!! :-) www.secondscenemagazine.com
	3:42pm Mike Rogers: The Yoko Ono movie shooting starts Sept 2, 2022. It will be a mind blowing Avant Guard experience.
	3:42pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - I'm looking forward to it! <3
	3:42pm Mike Rogers: Your name is at the TOP!!!!!
	3:43pm Mike Rogers: You got the magazine already??? That is very fast!!!
	3:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - I'm still thrilled by that <3
	3:43pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - Right? I was not expecting it to arrive that quickly!!
	3:43pm StringOFperils: Heavy company. Chuffed much?
	3:43pm Rich in Washington: John Lennon marrying Yoko One broke up the Fluxus Movement. There. I said it.
	3:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @SOp - Absolutely flabbergasted!! :-) I'm in a magazine with Pamela Des Barres!! <3
	3:44pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - Bold words ;-) Lol
	3:44pm Rich in Washington: Not really but sort of serious. Yoko bashing by Beatle fanboys made me type that.
	3:45pm Mr Fab: Remember Flan-fans, Flannery has moved to a NEW TIME, 8-9pm, but same day, from now on. Instead of "New Flanland" following this here show ever Wed, you can luxuriate in the Sheena stream for an hour until the rock-xotic sounds of Mike Rogers takes over.
	3:45pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - I saw a Fluxus retrospective in Brighton years ago and it was wonderful. It makes me sad that Yoko's art get sidelined
	3:46pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - I've got a video call today but I might DJ live next week :-)
	3:46pm Rich in Washington: You mean you're gonna DJ live in the gap? Woah! Yeah!
	3:47pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - Next week. Maybe :-) It's so much fun <3
	3:47pm Rich in Washington: Don-O's not on this week and I'm sorta tempted to do a completely unplanned set somewhere in the gap. No promises (or, this isn't a threat).
	3:48pm Mr Fab: Live from the Gap! But not the store. (I'm assuming)
	3:48pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Rich - Go for it!!! :-)
	3:48pm Mike Rogers: Did you guys know that Yoko's mom and dad were ultra rich? They were the upper echelon of Japanese aristocracy. The dad was the first Japanese to open Japanese bank in the USA in history! (It was in New York). I suspect that when she told her parent she wanted to marry John Lennon, they were vehemently against it. She graduated from an elite Ivy University. He didn't'even graduate from College. That would make any Japanese parents totally against this marriage! (this is my conjecture!)
	3:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mike - Weren't they opposed to her first marriage as well? I seem to remember reading that somewhere
	3:49pm Mr Fab: Interesting, Mike. All I know about Yoko's youth was - didn't her family survive Hiroshima?
	3:49pm StringOFperils: Fluxus was all about immaterial, non-commercial, impermanent, impossible to possess non-sequitirs in Capitalism, so I doubt that Yoko really gives a shite about her artworld creds...but, then, the giftshop is a pomo addition and notoriety IS art now I suppose
	3:49pm DJ GeorgyGirl: @Mr Fab - I'd heard that as well
	3:55pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, I've read bits of Yoko's bio. Its fascinating. Her pre-Lennon art career was really interesting, as was most of Fluxus' roster. Fun fact: Beck's grandfather Al Hansen was also a key Fluxus member.
	3:55pm Mike Rogers: "I suppose" Yeah. That's right. I don't know about Hiroshima. Yoko Grew up in Tokyo, that's all I know.
	3:56pm Phillippe: Thanks DJGG!
	3:56pm DJ GeorgyGirl: Thank you, lovely Phillippe! :-)

	3:58pm WM: I remember reading Pike a long time ago. The line "killers from the egg" sticks in my mind.
