Sue:

Hi, Joe! Wow, you're on AND it's daylight! How does it feel? Is it blinding?
  3:08pm
Joe:

I can't see! I can't see! How are you, Sue?
  3:10pm
Sue:

Doing good. Enjoying this wind and rain. It's pretty cool. Very blustery. How were your holiday celebrations?
  3:12pm
Joe:

Pretty good! No one got shot, anyway. Somebody gave me a Partridge Family CD, so you KNOW all is good.
  3:13pm
Sue:

Awesome, you must have been a good boy this year. Nothing good like that in my stocking.
  3:15pm
Joe:

I'm a good boy every year. :) What did you have in your stocking, or should I not ask?
  3:17pm
Sue:

Well, al good things actually, things I really needed and wanted, I have to say. So I can't complain. Hoildays were good overall. Got some cash, some girly stuff, can't go wrong with that.
  3:18pm
Sue:

It's always nice when people give you good records, too.
  3:18pm
Joe:

Cash and girly stuff--sounds like a recipe for happiness to me!
  3:22pm
Joe:

I don't know if everybody would consider a Partridge Family record "good," but hey, I guess that's what makes me me.
  3:24pm
T:

You nonconformists are all alike
  3:26pm
Joe:

Hee hee--Doesn't somebody want to be wanted??
  3:31pm
t:

Sorry but I am into geriatric placebos
  3:37pm
Sue:

Damn, so it's exclusive?
  3:37pm
t:

Well, send me your photo
  3:39pm

  3:39pm

That good old time punk rock
  3:42pm

Hey Joe,

Should we listen to "I'm Your Man" by Richard Hell today?

Cheers!

Nice tunes!
  3:42pm
Parq:

Dang, Joe, is this you? I didn't have the puter on, so I didn't know until your first mike break. What a great surprise to catch your show and still not be suffering from insomnia. Love that Move track you played lead-off; possibly my favorite of theirs. Hat's off to ya!
  3:44pm
t:

Geriatric boy bands
  3:45pm
Joe:

Hey, Parq! Nice to hear from you! I know you're not usually on the graveyard shift, so thanks for checking in.
  3:48pm
t:

Radar Love
  3:50pm
Joe:

Hey, Igor--Maybe I'll slip on that Richard Hell later on. Thanks for the suggestion.
  3:53pm
Joe:

Whoops!
  3:54pm
Sue:

that's ok
  3:56pm
t:

He didn't mean to. It was an accident.
  3:57pm
t:

Did you get any on your face?
  3:58pm
Jack:

Hey Joe! Great to hear you. Hope you're having good holidays. Come back to the Day Side!
  4:03pm

Hey, Jack! Thanks for the nice words. Hey, Annie!
  4:12pm

Hmm, I do believe that someone's confused K-Tel and Ronco.
  4:12pm
frenchee:

Joe, it sounds terrific there at Surface Noise Central. Rock on.
  4:13pm
Joe:

Thanks, Frenchee! It's pretty weird being here in the daylight, I have to say.
  4:14pm

Wait, Jersey has daylight? I'm comin' over. All gloomy and slush here in Brooklyn.

  4:18pm
Rob:

Hey, Rob--I'll see what I can find!
  4:19pm
Rob:

  4:24pm
Diana:

If not for the asterisk, just from listening, I would have guessed the Caretakers of Deception were a 60 garage rock band -- cool sounding track!
  4:25pm
Joe:

Hey, Diana--My "new" actually refers to it being a new CD. It's definitely old garage! I'll talk about it a bit when I come back on.
