	12:10pm Uncle Michael: Ken!
	🛒 12:10pm dutchtheo: happy yeavember
	🛒 12:10pm Franco Twinkie: Michael! As you know the original version of Are You Ready? was by Pacific Gas & Electric. I understand when you call their Hot Line(Ha) to find out if you're in a black out zone this song comes on.
	12:10pm davefromtoronto: what's up johnny from flory!
	12:10pm Rich in Washington: Hi John from Florham park!
	12:11pm Listening Out There: I smell a theme...
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: Theo! Franco!
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: No theme!
	12:11pm melinda: hi everyone
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: melinda!
	12:12pm John from Florham park: @Dave not much, there is a station from Alberta called CKUA which plays some fantastic music
	12:13pm John from Florham park: @Melinda how cold is it in Maine now
	12:16pm davefromtoronto: "i stink when i'm wet"
	12:17pm jmd: Hey UM! Love this Marvin Pontiac track.
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: jmd!
	12:19pm dan: The Bee Gees' "Odessa", an underrated masterpiece from start to finish.
	12:20pm Listening Out There: Now there's a themeless smell...
	12:21pm melinda: That Bee Gees was nice and zippy
	🛒 12:22pm Franco Twinkie: In 1980 when The Specials played at The Whisky, The Alleycats, a great L.A. punk band opened the show. I remember thinking How can The Specials top this? Well, the thunder and heat The Specials created was something to behold. After that, The Alleycats became more focused fierce. Never again would they be caught with their pants down.
	12:23pm doctorjazz: Love the Two Tone crew! Hey!
	12:23pm melinda: @John it has been warm (60s yesterday) and today it is 50s with high winds.
	12:24pm Uncle Michael: Doc!
	12:27pm joe: 'ello folks
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Joe!
	12:28pm Wilson in SO: Oh no! Uncle Michael knows I’m on acid!
	🛒 12:28pm WR: The playlist title, the illustration, the tunes. I've thought about it for a few minutes and have to accept that I don't understand and I am OK with being on that train. As long as Curtis Mayfield is on board.
	12:28pm mr c: Michael I never figure for a Do Do Wap kind of guy..
	12:29pm John from Florham park: @melinda 70s yesterday and 50s today here
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: Wilson! WR! mr. c!
	🛒 12:31pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Ugh November. But hi everybody.
	12:32pm Rich in Washington: my sentiments exactly, Sweet Corn Lizzie - almost as soon as I pulled myself out of bed.
	🛒 12:32pm WR: Ah, just read the comment at 12:11. No theme. UM choices for our enjoyment .
	12:34pm chresti: I love November, but I'm in California
	12:35pm dan: @chresti I hope you're nowhere near the wildfires.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie!
	12:36pm Listening Out There: Great version of Magic Carpet Ride. Had not heard it before...
	12:37pm Rich in Washington: This is wonderful!
	12:38pm melinda: This is great! Reminds me of Hayseed Dixie, the bluegrass tribute to AC/DC.
	12:38pm John from Florham park: @Chresti you did a great job during Fabios show yesterday
	12:38pm Rich in Washington: bluegrass music always reminds me of falling asleep to the weird freeform music block of DJs on KBOO on Friday nights and waking up to the country and bluegrass block.
	12:38pm joe: I was just going to post about how there is an amazing Bluegrass version of Thunderstuck
	12:38pm melinda: Magic Carpet Ride was already one of my favorite classic rock hits.
	12:39pm dan: This set must be country and bluegrass tributes to classic rock.
	12:39pm joe: Funny enough this is not the version I was thinking of
	12:40pm Rich in Washington: I was recently reunited with one of my favorite albums when I was a teen - Steppenwolf's 16 Greatest Hits. Used to crank that up on cassette in my first car, a giant, boaty Pontiac LeMans.
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: This song would have been a good way to Finnish the set.
	12:41pm chresti: Not yet, the fire season is just starting @dan. We're a safe distance from canyons where the winds are stronger. We worry about friends that live closer to the fires up north
	12:43pm melinda: Omg it jest gets better
	12:43pm Rich in Washington: This track gobsmacked me just as hard as the first time I heard Johnny Cash's cover of NIN's Hurt.
	12:43pm Wilson in SO: This is doing wonders for my synesthesia
	12:44pm Rich in Washington: and Charles Bradley's Changes. I was driving when I first heard it and nearly rear-ended someone in my gobsmackedness.
	12:46pm dan: And now we have rock covering country. Nice reversal.
	12:46pm Rich in Washington: Although with the Bradley cover, it was doubly weird, because I thought "AHA! -Changes was a cover of an old R&B song all along!" I'd never heard Charles Bradley before and its Motown-style production fooled me.
	12:47pm chresti: @John, I was following Clay's orders, no work or effort was involved
	12:47pm Listening Out There: I read a book on Jimmy Webb recently, who wrote Wichita Lineman, a song about a working person. He said there weren't enough songs about working people. Workin' on a Building happens to be a good example of one o' those...
	12:51pm dan: Les Claypool, the voice of South Park.
	12:57pm dan: The definitive version of "Orange Blossom Special" from the Jimi Hendrix of the fiddle, Doug Kershaw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jy-bDmK4puA
	🛒 12:59pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello HDinky World. Dropping in while doing a short stay in Tuscany. Just like Brooklyn!
	1:09pm Uncle Michael: Kevin! Tuscany!
	1:14pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M & Dinklets
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Coel!
	1:33pm βrian: @UM: I think that's the number 11.
	1:34pm bigplanetnoise: UM! UM! UM!
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: Once'?
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: Brian!
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: Bob!
	🛒 1:38pm WR: While getting an original pressing can be cool from a collector's POV or hold additional metadata regarding time and place the music was initially released, bottom line is the music. And in general the Rough Trade comps are significantly better than most of that ilk.
	1:40pm Rich in Washington: Wow! Never heard this before! It's fantastic!
	1:41pm Listening Out There: Huh. A remake of Tales of Brave Ulysses. Will wonders ever cease...
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: I agree, WR. Usually I can chase down the original release info...not always. I'm not about to let that stand in the way of playing something.
	1:41pm Roberto: Creamy funk/funky Cream!
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Courtesy of Larry Grogan.
	1:41pm coelacanth∅: ...interesting
	1:42pm joe: I love this version. I heard for the first time when A DJ played at a club a year or so ago.
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: hit the high note, Minnie.
	🛒 1:43pm CHUCK ROAST: Minnie Ripper ton !
	🛒 1:45pm CHUCK ROAST: Lt. UHURA ?
	🛒 1:45pm Franco Twinkie: Speaking of Wheels Of Fire: I wonder if anyone ever attempted a cover of Pressed Rat And Warthog? Ginger Bakers masterpiece, in my humble opinion.
	1:54pm geezerette: Uncle Miltie !!!
	1:55pm Dominick: You can hear the hatred Frank has for this song
	1:56pm dan: Frank sounding like a beatnik
	1:57pm Dominick: Took all he had not to run in the control room and strangle Mitch
	2:01pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but DOLEMITE IS MY NAME is freaking delightful. I can't think of a warmer or more charming movie with so many uses of the word "motherfucker."
	🛒 2:02pm Franco Twinkie: Michael, The record store in the movie is Poo Bah Records in Pasadena, where I hang my hat. Netflix locked out the store for two months in the summer of 2018 to bag those opening shots.
	2:03pm dan: @The Oscar And the strange thing is that none of them are uttered by Samuel L. Jackson
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: Wow, Franco. How did you survive?!
	2:06pm geezerette: Amazing Gentry! Never heard before.
	🛒 2:06pm Franco Twinkie: We would come in after the film crew was done for the day and practice, so it was no big deal.
	2:07pm melinda: @geezerette agree
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Dominick! Geezer!
	2:08pm geezerette: Hey, Melinda! UM! All y'all!
	2:08pm dan: For a second, I thought this was the theme to "The People's Court"
	2:10pm John from Florham park: @Chestri still it was a help
	2:15pm dan: Early Supertramp, back when Roger Hodgson was the group's bassist.
	2:22pm Marie: Yet another faboo show, UMsy. Thank you! Hi fellow UMsters
	2:22pm Uncle Michael: Marie! Thank you.
	2:22pm geezerette: Previously unaware that I actually lke Supertramp!
	2:29pm geezerette: ...like...(need more coffee)
	2:29pm Marie: @geezerette--me too
	2:30pm geezerette: Ha! :)
	2:30pm Marie: @geezerette--re the supertramp, that is--I need to come down from some coffee :>)
	2:35pm Listening Out There: Joni Mitchell is supposed to have a book out of her paintings. I'd like to see that...
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: Joni painted the self-portrait on the cover of this album.
	2:37pm geezerette: Must get this Joni Mitchell album. So damn gorgeous! Cheers,@ Marie!
	2:38pm Uncle Michael: I checked...and I might be wrong about the painting.
	2:39pm chresti: instagram.com/p/B4D9-yyB7cN/ Joni 's book
	🛒 2:40pm Franco Twinkie: I've never heard that Joni version! A truly eerie version of You're My Thrill was done by The Lovelies, a New York band composed of Voidoids and Bush Tetras.
	2:42pm Listening Out There: @chresti: Thanks and very cool! Surprising that the publisher got her out of her British Columbia home to do any kind of book tour...
	2:43pm geezerette: Loving this set, shivers/laughs/thrills !!! :D Howdy, Franco & Chresti!
	2:43pm coelacanth∅: the 'mac!
	🛒 2:44pm Franco Twinkie: A great picture of Joni Mitchell standing outside of Book Soup in West Hollywood was posted on Instagram wearing a bright red plaid poncho and red pants when she did a signing there a couple weeks ago.
	🛒 2:44pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Great stuff today. I enjoy playing Rattlesnake Shake for people and asking them to ID the artist. Their jaws drop.
	2:45pm chresti: Howdy geez!
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Jeremy Spencer's voice doesn't give it away?
	2:46pm dan: Fleetwood Mac's lineup today is kind of half Peter Green era, half Rumours when it comes to sound
	2:46pm Listening Out There: @franco - Is there still a Tower Records in West Hollywood? (See reflection in bookstore window.) I thought all the Towers were gone. Maybe it's an unused building...
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: Evidently not...Peter's singing
	2:46pm coelacanth∅: (i thought Joni painted that self-portrait too)
	2:47pm coelacanth∅: you're not going to play a 20-minute version?!
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: Not today!
	🛒 2:48pm Franco Twinkie: It's long gone, but the building is still there. At lease the last time I drove by it was!
	2:48pm geezerette: Love Book Soup! Miss The Bodhi Tree.
	2:49pm Marie: God I love Todd
	2:50pm geezerette: ...and Sunset Tower Records. sniff! :(
	2:50pm dan: This is the kind of set I like, random and unpredictable.
	🛒 2:50pm Franco Twinkie: Geezer, I would go to Book Soup more often, but it's just to hard to park around there.
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: ...Joni painted some of her album covers, i'm nearly positive -despite wikipedia not saying so. clouds, i think, is a self-portrait. upload.wikimedia.org...
	2:54pm coelacanth∅: ha -i thought "book soup" was a typo!
	🛒 2:55pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti met Joni. Joni admired one of Chrestis paintings.
	2:55pm chresti: I think Joni did paint the cover, yes
	2:56pm geezerette: Franco, yes, whole city's that way! Went to Guston show downtown and was shocked by all the over-development. Literally more every time we go there. Ray!!! :D
	2:56pm chresti: She did all the covers that have artwork
	2:57pm coelacanth∅: i'm still waiting to see chresti's submission to the wfmu art auction! i don't understand why no information about the auction -how it did, what sold for how much, pictures of pictures has been made available
	2:58pm dan: Great show. Same time next week
	2:58pm geezerette: Thanks, UM!!!
	3:00pm coelacanth∅: (i don't know why you did either! ha)
	🛒 3:00pm Franco Twinkie: Coel, I'm glad I didn't submit for that exact reason!
	3:01pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Uncle Michael great show! see y'all
	3:01pm coelacanth∅: Franco, yeah -i don't even know if my submission sold! that's fucked up.
	🛒 3:02pm Franco Twinkie: Michael, you is tops!
	🛒 3:02pm WR: Thanks for the tunes Uncle Michael
	3:03pm Uncle Michael: Thanks friends!
	3:03pm coelacanth∅: (i can't make promises the universe may intend to break)
	3:03pm chresti: I wonder too, coel. Was relieved when it wasn't included in the leftover gallery. It's rare that I learn where an artwork landed, once I donate it for an auction
	3:03pm Jeff Golick: 'HANX.
	3:04pm chresti: Thanks UM!!!

Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from November 1, 2019

View Uncle Michael's profile

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

	12:10pm Uncle Michael: Ken!
	🛒 12:10pm dutchtheo: happy yeavember
	🛒 12:10pm Franco Twinkie: Michael! As you know the original version of Are You Ready? was by Pacific Gas & Electric. I understand when you call their Hot Line(Ha) to find out if you're in a black out zone this song comes on.
	12:10pm davefromtoronto: what's up johnny from flory!
	12:10pm Rich in Washington: Hi John from Florham park!
	12:11pm Listening Out There: I smell a theme...
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: Theo! Franco!
	12:11pm Uncle Michael: No theme!
	12:11pm melinda: hi everyone
	12:12pm Uncle Michael: melinda!
	12:12pm John from Florham park: @Dave not much, there is a station from Alberta called CKUA which plays some fantastic music
	12:13pm John from Florham park: @Melinda how cold is it in Maine now
	12:16pm davefromtoronto: "i stink when i'm wet"
	12:17pm jmd: Hey UM! Love this Marvin Pontiac track.
	12:17pm Uncle Michael: jmd!
	12:19pm dan: The Bee Gees' "Odessa", an underrated masterpiece from start to finish.
	12:20pm Listening Out There: Now there's a themeless smell...
	12:21pm melinda: That Bee Gees was nice and zippy
	🛒 12:22pm Franco Twinkie: In 1980 when The Specials played at The Whisky, The Alleycats, a great L.A. punk band opened the show. I remember thinking How can The Specials top this? Well, the thunder and heat The Specials created was something to behold. After that, The Alleycats became more focused fierce. Never again would they be caught with their pants down.
	12:23pm doctorjazz: Love the Two Tone crew! Hey!
	12:23pm melinda: @John it has been warm (60s yesterday) and today it is 50s with high winds.
	12:24pm Uncle Michael: Doc!
	12:27pm joe: 'ello folks
	12:27pm Uncle Michael: Joe!
	12:28pm Wilson in SO: Oh no! Uncle Michael knows I’m on acid!
	🛒 12:28pm WR: The playlist title, the illustration, the tunes. I've thought about it for a few minutes and have to accept that I don't understand and I am OK with being on that train. As long as Curtis Mayfield is on board.
	12:28pm mr c: Michael I never figure for a Do Do Wap kind of guy..
	12:29pm John from Florham park: @melinda 70s yesterday and 50s today here
	12:30pm Uncle Michael: Wilson! WR! mr. c!
	🛒 12:31pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Ugh November. But hi everybody.
	12:32pm Rich in Washington: my sentiments exactly, Sweet Corn Lizzie - almost as soon as I pulled myself out of bed.
	🛒 12:32pm WR: Ah, just read the comment at 12:11. No theme. UM choices for our enjoyment .
	12:34pm chresti: I love November, but I'm in California
	12:35pm dan: @chresti I hope you're nowhere near the wildfires.
	12:36pm Uncle Michael: Lizzie!
	12:36pm Listening Out There: Great version of Magic Carpet Ride. Had not heard it before...
	12:37pm Rich in Washington: This is wonderful!
	12:38pm melinda: This is great! Reminds me of Hayseed Dixie, the bluegrass tribute to AC/DC.
	12:38pm John from Florham park: @Chresti you did a great job during Fabios show yesterday
	12:38pm Rich in Washington: bluegrass music always reminds me of falling asleep to the weird freeform music block of DJs on KBOO on Friday nights and waking up to the country and bluegrass block.
	12:38pm joe: I was just going to post about how there is an amazing Bluegrass version of Thunderstuck
	12:38pm melinda: Magic Carpet Ride was already one of my favorite classic rock hits.
	12:39pm dan: This set must be country and bluegrass tributes to classic rock.
	12:39pm joe: Funny enough this is not the version I was thinking of
	12:40pm Rich in Washington: I was recently reunited with one of my favorite albums when I was a teen - Steppenwolf's 16 Greatest Hits. Used to crank that up on cassette in my first car, a giant, boaty Pontiac LeMans.
	12:40pm Uncle Michael: This song would have been a good way to Finnish the set.
	12:41pm chresti: Not yet, the fire season is just starting @dan. We're a safe distance from canyons where the winds are stronger. We worry about friends that live closer to the fires up north
	12:43pm melinda: Omg it jest gets better
	12:43pm Rich in Washington: This track gobsmacked me just as hard as the first time I heard Johnny Cash's cover of NIN's Hurt.
	12:43pm Wilson in SO: This is doing wonders for my synesthesia
	12:44pm Rich in Washington: and Charles Bradley's Changes. I was driving when I first heard it and nearly rear-ended someone in my gobsmackedness.
	12:46pm dan: And now we have rock covering country. Nice reversal.
	12:46pm Rich in Washington: Although with the Bradley cover, it was doubly weird, because I thought "AHA! -Changes was a cover of an old R&B song all along!" I'd never heard Charles Bradley before and its Motown-style production fooled me.
	12:47pm chresti: @John, I was following Clay's orders, no work or effort was involved
	12:47pm Listening Out There: I read a book on Jimmy Webb recently, who wrote Wichita Lineman, a song about a working person. He said there weren't enough songs about working people. Workin' on a Building happens to be a good example of one o' those...
	12:51pm dan: Les Claypool, the voice of South Park.
	12:57pm dan: The definitive version of "Orange Blossom Special" from the Jimi Hendrix of the fiddle, Doug Kershaw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jy-bDmK4puA
	🛒 12:59pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello HDinky World. Dropping in while doing a short stay in Tuscany. Just like Brooklyn!
	1:09pm Uncle Michael: Kevin! Tuscany!
	1:14pm coelacanth∅: greetings Uncle M & Dinklets
	1:14pm Uncle Michael: Coel!
	1:33pm βrian: @UM: I think that's the number 11.
	1:34pm bigplanetnoise: UM! UM! UM!
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: Once'?
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: Brian!
	1:34pm Uncle Michael: Bob!
	🛒 1:38pm WR: While getting an original pressing can be cool from a collector's POV or hold additional metadata regarding time and place the music was initially released, bottom line is the music. And in general the Rough Trade comps are significantly better than most of that ilk.
	1:40pm Rich in Washington: Wow! Never heard this before! It's fantastic!
	1:41pm Listening Out There: Huh. A remake of Tales of Brave Ulysses. Will wonders ever cease...
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: I agree, WR. Usually I can chase down the original release info...not always. I'm not about to let that stand in the way of playing something.
	1:41pm Roberto: Creamy funk/funky Cream!
	1:41pm Uncle Michael: Courtesy of Larry Grogan.
	1:41pm coelacanth∅: ...interesting
	1:42pm joe: I love this version. I heard for the first time when A DJ played at a club a year or so ago.
	1:43pm Uncle Michael: hit the high note, Minnie.
	🛒 1:43pm CHUCK ROAST: Minnie Ripper ton !
	🛒 1:45pm CHUCK ROAST: Lt. UHURA ?
	🛒 1:45pm Franco Twinkie: Speaking of Wheels Of Fire: I wonder if anyone ever attempted a cover of Pressed Rat And Warthog? Ginger Bakers masterpiece, in my humble opinion.
	1:54pm geezerette: Uncle Miltie !!!
	1:55pm Dominick: You can hear the hatred Frank has for this song
	1:56pm dan: Frank sounding like a beatnik
	1:57pm Dominick: Took all he had not to run in the control room and strangle Mitch
	2:01pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but DOLEMITE IS MY NAME is freaking delightful. I can't think of a warmer or more charming movie with so many uses of the word "motherfucker."
	🛒 2:02pm Franco Twinkie: Michael, The record store in the movie is Poo Bah Records in Pasadena, where I hang my hat. Netflix locked out the store for two months in the summer of 2018 to bag those opening shots.
	2:03pm dan: @The Oscar And the strange thing is that none of them are uttered by Samuel L. Jackson
	2:04pm Uncle Michael: Wow, Franco. How did you survive?!
	2:06pm geezerette: Amazing Gentry! Never heard before.
	🛒 2:06pm Franco Twinkie: We would come in after the film crew was done for the day and practice, so it was no big deal.
	2:07pm melinda: @geezerette agree
	2:07pm Uncle Michael: Dominick! Geezer!
	2:08pm geezerette: Hey, Melinda! UM! All y'all!
	2:08pm dan: For a second, I thought this was the theme to "The People's Court"
	2:10pm John from Florham park: @Chestri still it was a help
	2:15pm dan: Early Supertramp, back when Roger Hodgson was the group's bassist.
	2:22pm Marie: Yet another faboo show, UMsy. Thank you! Hi fellow UMsters
	2:22pm Uncle Michael: Marie! Thank you.
	2:22pm geezerette: Previously unaware that I actually lke Supertramp!
	2:29pm geezerette: ...like...(need more coffee)
	2:29pm Marie: @geezerette--me too
	2:30pm geezerette: Ha! :)
	2:30pm Marie: @geezerette--re the supertramp, that is--I need to come down from some coffee :>)
	2:35pm Listening Out There: Joni Mitchell is supposed to have a book out of her paintings. I'd like to see that...
	2:36pm Uncle Michael: Joni painted the self-portrait on the cover of this album.
	2:37pm geezerette: Must get this Joni Mitchell album. So damn gorgeous! Cheers,@ Marie!
	2:38pm Uncle Michael: I checked...and I might be wrong about the painting.
	2:39pm chresti: instagram.com/p/B4D9-yyB7cN/ Joni 's book
	🛒 2:40pm Franco Twinkie: I've never heard that Joni version! A truly eerie version of You're My Thrill was done by The Lovelies, a New York band composed of Voidoids and Bush Tetras.
	2:42pm Listening Out There: @chresti: Thanks and very cool! Surprising that the publisher got her out of her British Columbia home to do any kind of book tour...
	2:43pm geezerette: Loving this set, shivers/laughs/thrills !!! :D Howdy, Franco & Chresti!
	2:43pm coelacanth∅: the 'mac!
	🛒 2:44pm Franco Twinkie: A great picture of Joni Mitchell standing outside of Book Soup in West Hollywood was posted on Instagram wearing a bright red plaid poncho and red pants when she did a signing there a couple weeks ago.
	🛒 2:44pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Great stuff today. I enjoy playing Rattlesnake Shake for people and asking them to ID the artist. Their jaws drop.
	2:45pm chresti: Howdy geez!
	2:45pm Uncle Michael: Jeremy Spencer's voice doesn't give it away?
	2:46pm dan: Fleetwood Mac's lineup today is kind of half Peter Green era, half Rumours when it comes to sound
	2:46pm Listening Out There: @franco - Is there still a Tower Records in West Hollywood? (See reflection in bookstore window.) I thought all the Towers were gone. Maybe it's an unused building...
	2:46pm Uncle Michael: Evidently not...Peter's singing
	2:46pm coelacanth∅: (i thought Joni painted that self-portrait too)
	2:47pm coelacanth∅: you're not going to play a 20-minute version?!
	2:48pm Uncle Michael: Not today!
	🛒 2:48pm Franco Twinkie: It's long gone, but the building is still there. At lease the last time I drove by it was!
	2:48pm geezerette: Love Book Soup! Miss The Bodhi Tree.
	2:49pm Marie: God I love Todd
	2:50pm geezerette: ...and Sunset Tower Records. sniff! :(
	2:50pm dan: This is the kind of set I like, random and unpredictable.
	🛒 2:50pm Franco Twinkie: Geezer, I would go to Book Soup more often, but it's just to hard to park around there.
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: ...Joni painted some of her album covers, i'm nearly positive -despite wikipedia not saying so. clouds, i think, is a self-portrait. upload.wikimedia.org...
	2:54pm coelacanth∅: ha -i thought "book soup" was a typo!
	🛒 2:55pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti met Joni. Joni admired one of Chrestis paintings.
	2:55pm chresti: I think Joni did paint the cover, yes
	2:56pm geezerette: Franco, yes, whole city's that way! Went to Guston show downtown and was shocked by all the over-development. Literally more every time we go there. Ray!!! :D
	2:56pm chresti: She did all the covers that have artwork
	2:57pm coelacanth∅: i'm still waiting to see chresti's submission to the wfmu art auction! i don't understand why no information about the auction -how it did, what sold for how much, pictures of pictures has been made available
	2:58pm dan: Great show. Same time next week
	2:58pm geezerette: Thanks, UM!!!
	3:00pm coelacanth∅: (i don't know why you did either! ha)
	🛒 3:00pm Franco Twinkie: Coel, I'm glad I didn't submit for that exact reason!
	3:01pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Uncle Michael great show! see y'all
	3:01pm coelacanth∅: Franco, yeah -i don't even know if my submission sold! that's fucked up.
	🛒 3:02pm Franco Twinkie: Michael, you is tops!
	🛒 3:02pm WR: Thanks for the tunes Uncle Michael
	3:03pm Uncle Michael: Thanks friends!
	3:03pm coelacanth∅: (i can't make promises the universe may intend to break)
	3:03pm chresti: I wonder too, coel. Was relieved when it wasn't included in the leftover gallery. It's rare that I learn where an artwork landed, once I donate it for an auction
	3:03pm Jeff Golick: 'HANX.
	3:04pm chresti: Thanks UM!!!
