	9:04pm Carmichael: Nice odd Prunes cover!
	9:05pm TDK60: Spooky psych forever. I actually did have too much to dream last night, a rare nightmare that I woke myself out of at 4:30 AM.
	9:05pm lisa: The Space Lady! A Berkeley/San Francisco institution!
	9:08pm Tome: Hey Hey ,, good stuff I'm a diggin' it !
	9:08pm chresti: hio hip hooray wierd!!!
	9:10pm maestroso: Digging it too here. Progressively weirder - I'm all in.
	9:12pm coelacanth∅: hello Jonathan and others
	9:17pm TDK60: WeirdFMU
	9:19pm Jonathan: Hey all! Excited to be here with you tonight.
	9:21pm chresti: The only part of last night's dream I remember is a large cat sitting upright, human style, in an armchair,
	9:22pm chresti: Hi!
	9:23pm Jonathan: My cat has been in that exact pose. Its freaky.
	9:24pm maestroso: Man, I'd love to find the sheet music for this! It would be devilishly fun to play (or try to play)
	9:24pm TDK60: Mine was, being asked to donate blood to some poor folks by a street portrait artist and gang. I was ok with it but then was imprisoned in a dark basement, told I'd be locked up for 48 hours. No! So I created a window, escaped, and woke.
	9:25pm Jonathan: You can preview and buy the score here seems like: michaelgordonmusic.com...
	9:25pm maestroso: Vicky Chow is amazing.
	9:28pm maestroso: Thanks Jonathan! This piece is amazing.
	9:29pm maestroso: Did I say "amazing" enough? OK I'm done.
	9:29pm Lopez: Whoa! This piece is blowing my mind.
	9:31pm Jonathan: Every time I feel like I have a handle on this piece it transforms into something even more crazy and complex.
	9:34pm coelacanth∅: ahhhhh . . . .
	9:34pm chresti: I always wake myself up when it gets too frightening
	9:35pm Joel St. Germain: Wonderful show. Always happy to have you on the air Jonathan
	9:37pm Jonathan: Thanks Joel SEE YOU SOON!!!
	9:39pm TDK60: ...interesting, I have more control, often, in dreams now; when younger, not so.
	9:41pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Jonathan. I'm pretty sure I remember Marty McSorley saying he wanted to have you play "Peace Sells... But Who's Buying" from Megadeth. If you could find somewhere to put that, that would be great.
	9:41pm coelacanth∅: i often realise i'm dreaming when i'm dreaming but still rarely can take control of it without awakening. i'm a light sleeper so i think it makes sense.
	9:42pm TDK60: The prior piano piece was devilish yet Just. // This sounds influenced by gamelan.
	9:48pm coelacanth∅: last night i awoke just because i was about to get on a platform for a subway without knowing what trains or buses would get me home. i wasn't worried. i somehow never learn the system but wing it and i always get home, but someone i slightly know was there and we apparently lived together. he/she insisted on helping me and i was torn between taking the directions and doing it how i always do it. fascinating. ...but that minor dilemma woke me up.
	9:52pm chresti: you start thinking about it to resolve it- that could wake me up
	9:53pm TDK60: Tonight I hope I don't dream I'm in 1947 and everyone smokes Lucky Strikes or Camels.
	9:55pm chresti: I like it when I hear someone talking in his or her sleep(unless it wakes me up)
	9:59pm chresti: I have smoking dreams, mostly driving or being in a large space/house/garden with a lot going on with many people dreams or movie format dreams with a soundtrack.
	10:02pm chresti: enjoying this show, Jonathan!
	10:06pm TDK60: It seems the agriculture god Azacca of Haiti is hard-pressed these days. And needs human help too.
	10:09pm Jonathan: Thanks Chresti!!
	10:17pm TDK60: Yes, enjoying the show while filing papers, taking notes; wish I could dance or jump.
	10:18pm chresti: no hopping desk, yet?
	10:19pm TDK60: ..well, I'm squirming in my seat at least..
	10:20pm Tome: got the bongos out the close just starring at them . for now anyway ..
	10:22pm coelacanth∅: TDK @9.53 i hope i DO dream that. war's over, people getting happier...and maybe i'll see my lucky strike/camel/ pall mall (all filterless) smoking grandma.
	10:23pm TDK60: well, there ya go coel --have that one and dream well.
	10:25pm coelacanth∅: chresti @9.55 i've directed others' dreams several times by entering into their aural environment. if they're speaking out load they're open to it.
	10:27pm coelacanth∅: ...or maybe vulnerable to it is more accurate; but i've never caused someone else's dream to turn sour.
	10:30pm chresti: I have never tried talking. only kicking
	10:33pm chresti: or friendly patting
	10:36pm Jonathan: Ever try the hand-in-warm-water trick?
	10:36pm sufferwords: bug out
	10:38pm chresti: Heavens no!
	10:42pm coelacanth∅: yes just a friendly kick! ...i don't know that i ever have done anything besides becoming part of their dreams. in some way. even if it's making some sound from across the room. i once pushed an electric can opener in the kitchen, which was next to my bedroom, and softly called for a dog (we didn't have a dog) to come eat. she said something like "when did he get here".
	10:43pm TDK60: Ah, I've met Michael Stirling, raga singer. Fine fellow.
	10:43pm coelacanth∅: Jonathan my friends did that to another friend a few times after other friend passed out drunk. it never worked, as far as i know. (which i'm glad about)
	11:18pm TDK60: '75. At first thought it was 1950s tape music.
	11:21pm TDK60: It's 1975 tape music, right?
	11:23pm Jonathan: Not sure if tape is utilized in this one specifically, I think its just him whistling into a microphone, but on this album, definitely.
	11:25pm TDK60: Recorded onto tape at least, heh.
	11:32pm Jonathan: Now this is a tape-heavy zone.
	11:33pm TDK60: Tape heavy zone - scientific musicians in white lab coats, notepads.
	11:37pm TDK60: Well, it's been a full sonic menu tonight, DJ JW. Soon I'll move to horizontal furniture. Maybe I'll dream I'm a roadie for The Electric Prunes in '66 L.A. Guys in Mod-cum-hippy corduroy jackets, long hair, boots; women in paisley skirts, beads. The club owner won't mind if we puff some reefers out back. Sounds like a comforting dream...
	11:40pm Jonathan: After all this talk about dreams, its only fair to want to go experience. Thanks for listening TDK
	11:45pm sufferwords: dig
	11:46pm Marcel M: good stuff
	11:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Jonathan. Hope you land another fill-in gig soon. (I see 8/21 midnight is on the books already.)
	11:58pm Jonathan: Thanks everyone, see you next time!
	11:58pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Jonathan!
