	11:59am John in Phoenixville: Me too, Revolution Rabbit!

	♥ 12:01pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Silver Saddle Motel" by "Hi-Risers, The" The Hi-Risers were the last show I saw at Long Branch's Whitechapel Projects (November 14, 2019). The management was hostile to musicians so no bands play there anymore.
	♥ 12:01pm Dano59: I never had a record or anything - until I got a driver's license, anyway

	♥ 12:03pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:00 A. bunch of us formed a one off Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers cover band called Petty Larceny. We were pretty good at it.
	12:03pm gf2002: Had a friend who worked at Tower Records, Newbury and Mass Ave. They would put anti-theft strips in the videos when they still did rentals. So I somehow got her to get a VHS magnetic strip that wasn't deactivated. I hid it in a friends wallet (college dorm) and said let's go to Tower. One of us stood at the video counter, the other in the book section next to it. Of course the alarm went off when he walked through the video entry. They didn't do anything. One of us called the friend over to check out a book. The alarm went off again as he walked through. They looked at him, but did nothing. Then we called him back to the video section, and the alarm went off. Security came out and were going to take him back in an office to search him, I had to step in and explain before they did that. Had a big laugh that day. His expression was priceless when they were going to haul him into the office. Ahh to be young again and have VHS rentals at Tower.
	12:03pm Bob Barth: Michael you & I must be apart of the LA - NJ exchange program. I grew up in NJ and now live out here. You gotta keep the balance.
	12:04pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:03 i had a day=job across the corner from that tower. mid-90s

	12:05pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Working Girls (Sunlight Shines)" by "Pernice Brot... yes. oh yes.
	♥ 12:06pm Dano59: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:05 Visited the stores in Manhattan, Toronto, Boston and Seattle. Always found cool zines, imports, and cutouts.
	12:06pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:04 Nice! This would have been 94-95, I miss that Tower. And Newbury Comics right down the block, dropped a lot of cash at those places in the 90's.

	12:10pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:09 btw, i'm sure you know that stanley has GREAT stories and knows how to tell them!!
	♥ 12:10pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:05 It was obliviously fun to play those songs, so good. Steve Ferrone was certainly no slouch but Stan was the OG goodness!
	12:11pm clarke: FuZZZZZZZZZ
	♥ 12:11pm Greg from ZONE 5: Yeah, I'm going to all of that. SO psyched Monty Hall is back in business.
	♥ 12:11pm Hubig Pie: I stole from the US government when I was a cook on a boat in the Coast Guard. Had the local neighborhood grocery make up a phony invoice for luncheon loaf that was actually used to buy a $100 magnum of Moet champagne for my brother in laws wedding.The bottle wound up sitting in the back of my fridge for over a year, cork shrank and the fizzies died. Dumped it down the sink. A cautionary tale.
	12:12pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:07 Very cool! Did you visit TC's Lounge? Dropped a lot of money there too, for no rational reason haha. There was a place right near there called The Tape Complex or something where we'd buy Ampex reels and DAT's and all that stuff pre-ProTools
	♥ 12:12pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Chris Hiatt @12:10 I find Steve very stiff
	♥ 12:13pm Creature Boy: ↳ Song: "Make This Train" by "Johnny Tillotson" Found this album in mono not long ago . LOTs of good cuts
	♥ 12:13pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Song: "Make This Train" by "Johnny Tillotson" Interesting tune. Like a cross of Last Train To Clarksville, Star Collector, and Memphis, TN.
	♥ 12:13pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Michael, McGroove, Jeff, Prof, Frank, Clarke, NYCMnerd, is that actually you Baby, David, Greg, everybody!

	12:14pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:12 yes, had to pick up stuff at the tape complex from time to time. also, the building that Syncro Sound was in was just up the street, there, across from Newbury Comics.
	♥ 12:14pm David Shortell: I remember when Das Damen played at the Court Tavern in 1989. Much of the crowd had left after Mudhoney's set though. Later, I'd see them back up Arthur Lee.
	♥ 12:15pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:10 I know Stan is quite a raconteur as well as a first-class drummer. I think his feel was crucial to that first bunch of LPs.
	12:15pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:13 hellooooo suh.
	12:15pm gf2002: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:11 That is a classic! Did the skipper ever question what happened to all that luncheon loaf on board, like Bogart with the strawberries in Caine Mutiny?
	♥ 12:16pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:13 Hey Jack! Best listener ever!
	♥ 12:16pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Chris Hiatt @12:10 couldn't agree more ... kind of like replacing Keith Moon with Kenny Jones...

	♥ 12:16pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your M... Saw a great honkytonk band last night / Loretta songs on the setlist. Classic country's where my head is at today
	♥ 12:17pm McGroovey: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:13 Greetings, Jack-o
	12:17pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:16 but, by stan's own admission he was being a stupid jerk.
	♥ 12:17pm Squints: ↳ gf2002 @12:15 Wouldn't he have been asking instead, "Where's the luncheon loaf? I thought we'd ordered a bunch."
	♥ 12:17pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ David Shortell @12:16 I was toying with it, but had kind of mentally committed to seeing The Natvral at Princeton Record Exchange.
	♥ 12:18pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:12 Heard that and I concur. Definitely more of a studio ringer vibe. Stan was more open.
	12:18pm clarke: Hubig later cached away some caviar from the russian navy.
	♥ 12:19pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:17 Yup, he was completely open and honest in the Bogdanovich doc. Unlike, uh..Tom...
	♥ 12:19pm Dano59: Scruffy ... Charlie Chesterman!
	♥ 12:19pm McGroovey: I loved Scruffy the Cat! Never got to see them live, though.
	♥ 12:20pm myron feld: 10k Maniacs: "My name is Natalie -- with a T!"
	12:20pm clarke: Charlie was the absolute BEST.
	♥ 12:20pm drr: Bogdanovich made a Tom Petty documentary?
	12:20pm Rahne: 💜💜💜scruffy
	♥ 12:20pm Hughie Considine: ↳ drr @12:20 Yup, "Runnin' Down a Dream"
	♥ 12:21pm Hubig Pie: ↳ gf2002 @12:15 It all went unnoticed. But like Bogart, that captain was later relieved of his command, but that's a whole 'nother long story.
	12:21pm Scott from Boston: Scruffy!!! 🐈‍⬛
	♥ 12:21pm McGroovey: My favorite Scruffy the Cat song is "You Dirty Rat"
	12:21pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Scruffy The Cat played on my college campus in 1988 w/Green.
	12:21pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:21 good one!!
	12:22pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:14 Funny you mention Synchro Sound, I just watched a documentary on YouTube yesterday called "Elliot Easton, Cars, and Guitars" or something like that and much of it was filmed at Synchro just after the Cars bought it. Neat documentary, I think it may have been on 'GBH originally. Lisa Karlin was the host. That whole area has changed so much, I'd probably get lost walking around. And I also miss Supremes and Little Stevies for pizza and sandwiches late night
	♥ 12:22pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:21 I love how the chorus of You Dirty Rat doesn't happen after the first verse, so when it comes later, it's like an orgasmic pay-off
	♥ 12:22pm Hughie Considine: I just saw that Bill Janovitz's next book is about the Cars.
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:22 i've seen that interview - it's great. they go to his house out in.. suburb.
	♥ 12:23pm egould: ↳ Song: "Kissing Galaxy" by "Scruffy The Cat" Love Scruffy the Cat. And yeah they made some number one hits along the way.
	♥ 12:24pm McGroovey: Charlie Chesterman's solo records are great also.
	12:24pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:22 Yep, that's the one. And he shows off his guitar collection. Very cool documentary, I found it by accident and am glad I did! Shots of the old Rat in there too.
	♥ 12:24pm David Shortell: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:17 After that 4 pm Princeton show, you can easily catch the Anderson Council and Palmyra Delran at Randy Now's Man Cave in nearby Hightstown--if there's any room left!
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:24 that, too, is on the youtube - or was.
	♥ 12:25pm Dano59: Appreciating all the Boston vibes today.
	12:26pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:25 Syncro was another studio prior to that, and Modern Lovers did some overnite sessions at that one. early 70's
	♥ 12:26pm McGroovey: You left (I Wanna) Hold You off the playlist. I had to Shazam it!
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:26 and...??
	♥ 12:28pm drr: ↳ gf2002 @12:22 My North End address (Causeway Street) absolutely doesn't exist anymore. I saw it on Google Maps, it looked like a Star Trek planet, devoid of people (and the darkness I associate with that area that time (1987).
	♥ 12:29pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @12:26 right! the name was familiar.
	♥ 12:29pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:27 Jay Gonzales!
	12:29pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:28 yeah that whole garden area is different.
	12:29pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:29 see that, now. thnx!
	12:30pm Peter Horvath: Happy Saturday to Michael and all the #1’ers
	♥ 12:30pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:29 Phshew!
	12:30pm DG: I think hearing "Mybabyshe'sallright" was my intro to Scruffy, sought out their stuff after that. They write great stuff & it's ridiculous they're not better known; they didn't even have a Wiki. page until a few years ago! Have "Tiny Days" & 1 EP but should get more, sorry I never saw them live. Also have this C. Chesterman EP that the They Might Be Giants guys put out.
	12:31pm clarke: when i lived there, in Allston Rock City the amount of bands/musicians in my immediate 'hood was mind-boggling.
	♥ 12:31pm Dano59: Freedy deserves a medal for making a Marshall Crenshaw B-side an enduring No. 1
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ DG @12:30 Charlie's later band The Motorbikes was really great, too!!
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Freedy Johnston" quite enjoyed Freedy's appearance in the Embarrassment doc!!
	♥ 12:35pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @12:31 (and The Firecrackers ... can't recall if that was just a one-off)
	12:35pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:35 YES!! AWESOME.
	♥ 12:36pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:31 Hey, I wonder if you knew my friend Jon Johnson? He played doghouse bass in the Boston band... now I can't remember the name of the band... kinda rockabillyish... He and I used to trade tapes and letters (remember letters?). He died at age 39 (~20 years ago) of a stroke or a heart attack, and he was apparently a healthy guy. Life is unpredictable!
	12:36pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:31 Allston, definitely! Used to visit musician friends there often. Also remember a rehearsal studio we had, was it "The Music Complex" (?) in Somerville. Big warehouse that was either near or over a bakery that made donuts, and you could smell the donuts coming up through the floor boards. My drummer friend lived in one of the rooms for a time when he lost his pad, they had showers and all that.
	12:37pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 i don't think i knew him - obviously would remember the doghouse
	12:39pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:36 while i spent time in ALL those rehearsal halls, i had my own space just across and down the street in lower allston was the best. just the bands there, were mind-blowing.
	12:40pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Freedy Johnston" wow = great stuff!!
	12:42pm tonyb: What helped more? Getting an A+ from Christgau or being on the film soundtrack (Pin-heads?)
	12:42pm clarke: great interview!! as usual.
	12:42pm gf2002: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 Bourbonaires? I think I caught them on the same bill with a friend's band in the later 90's, but I'm not sure. Rockabilly combo with standup bass. I remember it being a loud show but can't remember exactly if it was The Bourbonaires
	♥ 12:43pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Dano59 @12:31 What's that cut? I want to check it out.
	♥ 12:43pm Dano59: let's hear it for The Unassailables!
	12:43pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:42 i never got to see them.
	♥ 12:44pm Dano59: ↳ Chris Hiatt @12:43 '(You're My) Favorite Waste of Time'
	♥ 12:44pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:37 The Bourbonaires!
	♥ 12:45pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:44 He sent me tapes, but I never saw them live
	12:45pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:44 i knew they existed but never got to a show of theirs, sadly.
	12:45pm DG: ↳ Dano59 @12:31 That Crenshaw song ("...Favorite Waste of Time") was covered by a few other people, inc. Bette Midler, a year or 2 after it came out (I still have the b-side).
	♥ 12:46pm egould: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Freedy Johnston" “It’s boring!” I should be so bored…
	♥ 12:46pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Dano59 @12:44 Thanks!
	♥ 12:47pm Dano59: ↳ DG @12:45 and later on: Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs; Jeffrey Foskett, et al.
	12:48pm gf2002: If the guitarist played a Scotty Moore-style gold ES-295, then I saw them. I don't know of too many other bands who had a 295 in Boston on stage but I could be wrong. I remember the guitar but can't confirm it was The Bourbonaires. Lot of beer was flowing that night.
	♥ 12:48pm McGroovey: ↳ DG @12:45 Ooh, that's probably my favorite MC song. I didn't know about the Bette Midler covering it. Good for Marshall!
	♥ 12:49pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Freedy Johnston" Enjoying this interview. I became a Freedy Johnston fan back in the 1990s with "This Perfect World" "Blue Days Black Nights" etc. The ironic titles and somewhat downer lyrics struck a chord with me.
	12:52pm Harry Corvair: Unfamiliar with Freedy Johnston, really enjoying this interview.
	♥ 12:53pm joe mulligan: ↳ Dan S @12:49 good stuff. he got a lot of airplay then on WXPN Philadelphia as well
	12:53pm clarke: i lived in a motel in ann arbor for over a month, in between legs of a tour, and Freedy's album Never Home got me through that month.
	12:55pm clarke: it came off WELL!! thanks MS!!
	12:55pm morphe': Thanks mikey and freedy and all !!
	♥ 12:55pm Dano59: Great interview! Always nice when musos share some wisdom
	12:56pm clarke: all #1's!!
	♥ 12:56pm joe mulligan: great interview Michael Shelley!
	♥ 12:56pm Squints: ↳ Song: "Bad Reputation" by "Freedy Johnston" This whole disc is great. But this one is the banger.
	♥ 12:56pm Hoboken Jack: I had a lot of fun interviewing Freedy a handful of years ago (during the first attempt at recording the current album) and I'm looking forward to this Outpost show!
	12:56pm Bob Barth: ↳ Song: "Bad Reputation" by "Freedy Johnston" Great interview This song puts me back.
	♥ 12:57pm joe mulligan: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:56 makes me miss living in Bloomfield/right near Montclair
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:56 where's that interview, jack??
	♥ 12:57pm Frank In Queens: Great show Michael!
	♥ 12:58pm Dan S: ↳ clarke @12:53 "Never Home" was another 1990s FJ album I played a lot.
	♥ 12:58pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ clarke @12:57 hmag.com...
	♥ 12:58pm Hoboken Jack: Thank you Michael! Great interview and show! In fact, best show ever!
	♥ 12:59pm Dano59: Freedy contributed a few songs to Nick Hill's Radio Free Song Club - www.youtube.com...
	12:59pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:58 thanks - you deliver.
	12:59pm clarke: good gosh time flies... good nite.
	♥ 12:59pm nycmusicnerd: Thanks Michael! And...if anyone is thinking about the Hi-Risers show, please feel free to msg me. Thanks!
	12:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ MS ~
	♥ 12:59pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Dano59 @12:59 I loved that show!

	11:59am John in Phoenixville: Me too, Revolution Rabbit!
	♥ 12:00pm Hughie Considine: Is there anyone on the chat board who was actually good at petty larceny?
	12:00pm SSS: There's a dial?
	12:00pm Bob Barth: ↳ Dano59 @11:58 Yeah if I recall it was Mall security that asked to look in my bag and I immediatly folded.
	♥ 12:00pm Squints: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:00 Nah. Those people get called up to The Show.
	12:00pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:00 my college roomate got away with it ALL the time.
	♥ 12:01pm JohnEBGood: There is a Washington Township in South Jersey also known as Turnersville. Home to great boxer Mike Rossman. The Hit Man!!
	♥ 12:01pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Silver Saddle Motel" by "Hi-Risers, The" The Hi-Risers were the last show I saw at Long Branch's Whitechapel Projects (November 14, 2019). The management was hostile to musicians so no bands play there anymore.
	♥ 12:01pm Dano59: I never had a record or anything - until I got a driver's license, anyway
	♥ 12:01pm Hughie Considine: It's a definite skill that depends on a certain attitude I think.
	♥ 12:02pm Corey: ↳ Song: "Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You" by "Esther... Sweet version!
	♥ 12:03pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:00 A. bunch of us formed a one off Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers cover band called Petty Larceny. We were pretty good at it.
	12:03pm gf2002: Had a friend who worked at Tower Records, Newbury and Mass Ave. They would put anti-theft strips in the videos when they still did rentals. So I somehow got her to get a VHS magnetic strip that wasn't deactivated. I hid it in a friends wallet (college dorm) and said let's go to Tower. One of us stood at the video counter, the other in the book section next to it. Of course the alarm went off when he walked through the video entry. They didn't do anything. One of us called the friend over to check out a book. The alarm went off again as he walked through. They looked at him, but did nothing. Then we called him back to the video section, and the alarm went off. Security came out and were going to take him back in an office to search him, I had to step in and explain before they did that. Had a big laugh that day. His expression was priceless when they were going to haul him into the office. Ahh to be young again and have VHS rentals at Tower.
	12:03pm Bob Barth: Michael you & I must be apart of the LA - NJ exchange program. I grew up in NJ and now live out here. You gotta keep the balance.
	12:04pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:03 i had a day=job across the corner from that tower. mid-90s
	♥ 12:04pm Dano59: ↳ gf2002 @12:03 I miss Tower.
	♥ 12:05pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Dano59 @12:04 me too!
	♥ 12:05pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Chris Hiatt @12:03 I tip my hat to you. That is pure mathematical genius. Stan Lynch was the first rock star I ever spoke to so my love for them runs deep.
	12:05pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Working Girls (Sunlight Shines)" by "Pernice Brot... yes. oh yes.
	♥ 12:06pm Dano59: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:05 Visited the stores in Manhattan, Toronto, Boston and Seattle. Always found cool zines, imports, and cutouts.
	12:06pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:04 Nice! This would have been 94-95, I miss that Tower. And Newbury Comics right down the block, dropped a lot of cash at those places in the 90's.
	12:06pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:05 youtube has two great in-depth interviews with stanley in his studio.
	♥ 12:06pm Don Gorden: I like working girls
	♥ 12:07pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "Working Girls (Sunlight Shines)" by "Pernice Brot... I should put this in the car for the drive to Rochester tomorrow
	12:07pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:06 yeah, i worked at a dub-house above that Urban Outfitters.
	♥ 12:07pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "Working Girls (Sunlight Shines)" by "Pernice Brot... what year/album is this from? Loved these guys since the '90s
	♥ 12:08pm Dano59: ↳ Dano59 @12:06 oh, and London, too
	12:09pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:07 not that this will help your drive, but i think the album just came out on vinyl re-issue.
	♥ 12:09pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:06 will totally seek them out. danke!
	♥ 12:09pm joe mulligan: ↳ Chris Hiatt @12:03 There’s a band called Petty Theft here in Marin
	12:09pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:09 i think it might be by a guy called The Drum Guy?? something like dat.
	12:10pm Bob Barth: He's working for the NY Stock Exchange.
	12:10pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:09 btw, i'm sure you know that stanley has GREAT stories and knows how to tell them!!
	♥ 12:10pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:05 It was obliviously fun to play those songs, so good. Steve Ferrone was certainly no slouch but Stan was the OG goodness!
	12:11pm clarke: FuZZZZZZZZZ
	♥ 12:11pm Greg from ZONE 5: Yeah, I'm going to all of that. SO psyched Monty Hall is back in business.
	♥ 12:11pm Hubig Pie: I stole from the US government when I was a cook on a boat in the Coast Guard. Had the local neighborhood grocery make up a phony invoice for luncheon loaf that was actually used to buy a $100 magnum of Moet champagne for my brother in laws wedding.The bottle wound up sitting in the back of my fridge for over a year, cork shrank and the fizzies died. Dumped it down the sink. A cautionary tale.
	12:12pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:07 Very cool! Did you visit TC's Lounge? Dropped a lot of money there too, for no rational reason haha. There was a place right near there called The Tape Complex or something where we'd buy Ampex reels and DAT's and all that stuff pre-ProTools
	♥ 12:12pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Chris Hiatt @12:10 I find Steve very stiff
	♥ 12:13pm Creature Boy: ↳ Song: "Make This Train" by "Johnny Tillotson" Found this album in mono not long ago . LOTs of good cuts
	♥ 12:13pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Song: "Make This Train" by "Johnny Tillotson" Interesting tune. Like a cross of Last Train To Clarksville, Star Collector, and Memphis, TN.
	♥ 12:13pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Michael, McGroove, Jeff, Prof, Frank, Clarke, NYCMnerd, is that actually you Baby, David, Greg, everybody!
	♥ 12:14pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:13 yo! jack!
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:12 yes, had to pick up stuff at the tape complex from time to time. also, the building that Syncro Sound was in was just up the street, there, across from Newbury Comics.
	♥ 12:14pm David Shortell: I remember when Das Damen played at the Court Tavern in 1989. Much of the crowd had left after Mudhoney's set though. Later, I'd see them back up Arthur Lee.
	♥ 12:15pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:10 I know Stan is quite a raconteur as well as a first-class drummer. I think his feel was crucial to that first bunch of LPs.
	12:15pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:13 hellooooo suh.
	12:15pm gf2002: ↳ Hubig Pie @12:11 That is a classic! Did the skipper ever question what happened to all that luncheon loaf on board, like Bogart with the strawberries in Caine Mutiny?
	♥ 12:16pm Michael Shelley: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:13 Hey Jack! Best listener ever!
	♥ 12:16pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Chris Hiatt @12:10 couldn't agree more ... kind of like replacing Keith Moon with Kenny Jones...
	♥ 12:16pm David Shortell: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:13 Are you going to Bomd Street today, Jack?
	♥ 12:16pm Frank In Queens: ↳ Song: "Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your M... See, I usually come home lovin' with drinkin' on my mind!
	12:16pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:15 apparently, he is quite the engineer/producer, nowdays, too..
	♥ 12:16pm Dano59: ↳ Song: "Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your M... Saw a great honkytonk band last night / Loretta songs on the setlist. Classic country's where my head is at today
	♥ 12:17pm McGroovey: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:13 Greetings, Jack-o
	12:17pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:16 but, by stan's own admission he was being a stupid jerk.
	♥ 12:17pm Squints: ↳ gf2002 @12:15 Wouldn't he have been asking instead, "Where's the luncheon loaf? I thought we'd ordered a bunch."
	♥ 12:17pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ David Shortell @12:16 I was toying with it, but had kind of mentally committed to seeing The Natvral at Princeton Record Exchange.
	♥ 12:18pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Michael Shelley @12:12 Heard that and I concur. Definitely more of a studio ringer vibe. Stan was more open.
	12:18pm clarke: Hubig later cached away some caviar from the russian navy.
	♥ 12:19pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:17 Yup, he was completely open and honest in the Bogdanovich doc. Unlike, uh..Tom...
	♥ 12:19pm Dano59: Scruffy ... Charlie Chesterman!
	♥ 12:19pm McGroovey: I loved Scruffy the Cat! Never got to see them live, though.
	♥ 12:20pm myron feld: 10k Maniacs: "My name is Natalie -- with a T!"
	12:20pm clarke: Charlie was the absolute BEST.
	♥ 12:20pm drr: Bogdanovich made a Tom Petty documentary?
	12:20pm Rahne: 💜💜💜scruffy
	♥ 12:20pm Hughie Considine: ↳ drr @12:20 Yup, "Runnin' Down a Dream"
	♥ 12:21pm Hubig Pie: ↳ gf2002 @12:15 It all went unnoticed. But like Bogart, that captain was later relieved of his command, but that's a whole 'nother long story.
	12:21pm Scott from Boston: Scruffy!!! 🐈‍⬛
	♥ 12:21pm McGroovey: My favorite Scruffy the Cat song is "You Dirty Rat"
	12:21pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Scruffy The Cat played on my college campus in 1988 w/Green.
	12:21pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:21 good one!!
	12:22pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:14 Funny you mention Synchro Sound, I just watched a documentary on YouTube yesterday called "Elliot Easton, Cars, and Guitars" or something like that and much of it was filmed at Synchro just after the Cars bought it. Neat documentary, I think it may have been on 'GBH originally. Lisa Karlin was the host. That whole area has changed so much, I'd probably get lost walking around. And I also miss Supremes and Little Stevies for pizza and sandwiches late night
	♥ 12:22pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:21 I love how the chorus of You Dirty Rat doesn't happen after the first verse, so when it comes later, it's like an orgasmic pay-off
	♥ 12:22pm Hughie Considine: I just saw that Bill Janovitz's next book is about the Cars.
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:22 i've seen that interview - it's great. they go to his house out in.. suburb.
	♥ 12:23pm egould: ↳ Song: "Kissing Galaxy" by "Scruffy The Cat" Love Scruffy the Cat. And yeah they made some number one hits along the way.
	♥ 12:24pm McGroovey: Charlie Chesterman's solo records are great also.
	12:24pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:22 Yep, that's the one. And he shows off his guitar collection. Very cool documentary, I found it by accident and am glad I did! Shots of the old Rat in there too.
	♥ 12:24pm David Shortell: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:17 After that 4 pm Princeton show, you can easily catch the Anderson Council and Palmyra Delran at Randy Now's Man Cave in nearby Hightstown--if there's any room left!
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:24 that, too, is on the youtube - or was.
	♥ 12:25pm Dano59: Appreciating all the Boston vibes today.
	12:26pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:25 Syncro was another studio prior to that, and Modern Lovers did some overnite sessions at that one. early 70's
	♥ 12:26pm McGroovey: You left (I Wanna) Hold You off the playlist. I had to Shazam it!
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:26 and...??
	♥ 12:28pm drr: ↳ gf2002 @12:22 My North End address (Causeway Street) absolutely doesn't exist anymore. I saw it on Google Maps, it looked like a Star Trek planet, devoid of people (and the darkness I associate with that area that time (1987).
	♥ 12:29pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @12:26 right! the name was familiar.
	♥ 12:29pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:27 Jay Gonzales!
	12:29pm clarke: ↳ drr @12:28 yeah that whole garden area is different.
	12:29pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:29 see that, now. thnx!
	12:30pm Peter Horvath: Happy Saturday to Michael and all the #1’ers
	♥ 12:30pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:29 Phshew!
	12:30pm DG: I think hearing "Mybabyshe'sallright" was my intro to Scruffy, sought out their stuff after that. They write great stuff & it's ridiculous they're not better known; they didn't even have a Wiki. page until a few years ago! Have "Tiny Days" & 1 EP but should get more, sorry I never saw them live. Also have this C. Chesterman EP that the They Might Be Giants guys put out.
	12:31pm clarke: when i lived there, in Allston Rock City the amount of bands/musicians in my immediate 'hood was mind-boggling.
	♥ 12:31pm Dano59: Freedy deserves a medal for making a Marshall Crenshaw B-side an enduring No. 1
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ DG @12:30 Charlie's later band The Motorbikes was really great, too!!
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Freedy Johnston" quite enjoyed Freedy's appearance in the Embarrassment doc!!
	♥ 12:35pm Dano59: ↳ clarke @12:31 (and The Firecrackers ... can't recall if that was just a one-off)
	12:35pm clarke: ↳ Dano59 @12:35 YES!! AWESOME.
	♥ 12:36pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:31 Hey, I wonder if you knew my friend Jon Johnson? He played doghouse bass in the Boston band... now I can't remember the name of the band... kinda rockabillyish... He and I used to trade tapes and letters (remember letters?). He died at age 39 (~20 years ago) of a stroke or a heart attack, and he was apparently a healthy guy. Life is unpredictable!
	12:36pm gf2002: ↳ clarke @12:31 Allston, definitely! Used to visit musician friends there often. Also remember a rehearsal studio we had, was it "The Music Complex" (?) in Somerville. Big warehouse that was either near or over a bakery that made donuts, and you could smell the donuts coming up through the floor boards. My drummer friend lived in one of the rooms for a time when he lost his pad, they had showers and all that.
	12:37pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 i don't think i knew him - obviously would remember the doghouse
	12:39pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:36 while i spent time in ALL those rehearsal halls, i had my own space just across and down the street in lower allston was the best. just the bands there, were mind-blowing.
	12:40pm clarke: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Freedy Johnston" wow = great stuff!!
	12:42pm tonyb: What helped more? Getting an A+ from Christgau or being on the film soundtrack (Pin-heads?)
	12:42pm clarke: great interview!! as usual.
	12:42pm gf2002: ↳ McGroovey @12:36 Bourbonaires? I think I caught them on the same bill with a friend's band in the later 90's, but I'm not sure. Rockabilly combo with standup bass. I remember it being a loud show but can't remember exactly if it was The Bourbonaires
	♥ 12:43pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Dano59 @12:31 What's that cut? I want to check it out.
	♥ 12:43pm Dano59: let's hear it for The Unassailables!
	12:43pm clarke: ↳ gf2002 @12:42 i never got to see them.
	♥ 12:44pm Dano59: ↳ Chris Hiatt @12:43 '(You're My) Favorite Waste of Time'
	♥ 12:44pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:37 The Bourbonaires!
	♥ 12:45pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @12:44 He sent me tapes, but I never saw them live
	12:45pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:44 i knew they existed but never got to a show of theirs, sadly.
	12:45pm DG: ↳ Dano59 @12:31 That Crenshaw song ("...Favorite Waste of Time") was covered by a few other people, inc. Bette Midler, a year or 2 after it came out (I still have the b-side).
	♥ 12:46pm egould: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Freedy Johnston" “It’s boring!” I should be so bored…
	♥ 12:46pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Dano59 @12:44 Thanks!
	♥ 12:47pm Dano59: ↳ DG @12:45 and later on: Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs; Jeffrey Foskett, et al.
	12:48pm gf2002: If the guitarist played a Scotty Moore-style gold ES-295, then I saw them. I don't know of too many other bands who had a 295 in Boston on stage but I could be wrong. I remember the guitar but can't confirm it was The Bourbonaires. Lot of beer was flowing that night.
	♥ 12:48pm McGroovey: ↳ DG @12:45 Ooh, that's probably my favorite MC song. I didn't know about the Bette Midler covering it. Good for Marshall!
	♥ 12:49pm Dan S: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Freedy Johnston" Enjoying this interview. I became a Freedy Johnston fan back in the 1990s with "This Perfect World" "Blue Days Black Nights" etc. The ironic titles and somewhat downer lyrics struck a chord with me.
	12:52pm Harry Corvair: Unfamiliar with Freedy Johnston, really enjoying this interview.
	♥ 12:53pm joe mulligan: ↳ Dan S @12:49 good stuff. he got a lot of airplay then on WXPN Philadelphia as well
	12:53pm clarke: i lived in a motel in ann arbor for over a month, in between legs of a tour, and Freedy's album Never Home got me through that month.
	12:55pm clarke: it came off WELL!! thanks MS!!
	12:55pm morphe': Thanks mikey and freedy and all !!
	♥ 12:55pm Dano59: Great interview! Always nice when musos share some wisdom
	12:56pm clarke: all #1's!!
	♥ 12:56pm joe mulligan: great interview Michael Shelley!
	♥ 12:56pm Squints: ↳ Song: "Bad Reputation" by "Freedy Johnston" This whole disc is great. But this one is the banger.
	♥ 12:56pm Hoboken Jack: I had a lot of fun interviewing Freedy a handful of years ago (during the first attempt at recording the current album) and I'm looking forward to this Outpost show!
	12:56pm Bob Barth: ↳ Song: "Bad Reputation" by "Freedy Johnston" Great interview This song puts me back.
	♥ 12:57pm joe mulligan: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:56 makes me miss living in Bloomfield/right near Montclair
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:56 where's that interview, jack??
	♥ 12:57pm Frank In Queens: Great show Michael!
	♥ 12:58pm Dan S: ↳ clarke @12:53 "Never Home" was another 1990s FJ album I played a lot.
	♥ 12:58pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ clarke @12:57 hmag.com...
	♥ 12:58pm Hoboken Jack: Thank you Michael! Great interview and show! In fact, best show ever!
	♥ 12:59pm Dano59: Freedy contributed a few songs to Nick Hill's Radio Free Song Club - www.youtube.com...
	12:59pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:58 thanks - you deliver.
	12:59pm clarke: good gosh time flies... good nite.
