	♥ 4:14pm Paper Kosmonaut: Joe Rando? Yorando!
	♥ 4:14pm Franco Twinkie: What the hell were you doing in MacArthur Park in the 1980's Solo? I guess you from out of town. By then, locals knew enough to stay out of that toilet.
	♥ 4:14pm Rich in Washington: Biff Debris.
	♥ 4:14pm StringOFperils: Debris Lafayette

	♥ 4:15pm StringOFperils: Ha ha
	♥ 4:16pm Paper Kosmonaut: Like That Erica woman whose name was spelled AirWrecka.
	♥ 4:16pm MHLee: @rich between you and the death disk of the week of WWR there's definitely enough tragedies numbers to keep things going
	♥ 4:18pm MHLee: I actually might have a few local tragedy songs on a cd I bought that says on it NOT LICENSED FOR SALE
	♥ 4:19pm Rich in Washington: @MHLee: I got WWR's premium CD of DDotW and it's a thing of beauty.
	♥ 4:20pm MHLee: Sketchy comps with bad sound quality are how you find great music

	♥ 4:31pm MHLee: I have to restrict myself from buying everything they've released ever
	♥ 4:32pm flannery: yeah when i look at their website im just like ah shit shit shit
	♥ 4:32pm Paper Kosmonaut: What would it have taken to get some emotion out of Lou Reed?
	♥ 4:32pm Franco Twinkie: Don't cry Penny, go to the fuckers house and pour bleach on their front lawn.
	♥ 4:33pm StringOFperils: Nice lost gospel record

	♥ 4:36pm flannery: where were u running errands they were playing faith no more... thats not CVS style
	♥ 4:36pm Franco Twinkie: Reminds me of junior high and all the misery there in.

	♥ 4:36pm StringOFperils: Nice to hear this without scratches
	🐛 ♥ 4:36pm Aitch: Early Bee Gees is fun
	♥ 4:36pm Paper Kosmonaut: School is a battlefield for your heart.
	♥ 4:37pm Rich in Washington: I just found a cheesy would-be Jesus Christ Superstar/Godspell xtian musical album called The Clown.
	♥ 4:37pm StringOFperils: Early Guess Who is fun too
	♥ 4:37pm Paper Kosmonaut: Well, who are they then?
	♥ 4:38pm Franco Twinkie: The only person that ever made me cry at school was a teacher.
	♥ 4:38pm StringOFperils: ARe you going to play that on your show, rich? Hint hint
	♥ 4:38pm flannery: i first heard this in that movie CHRISTINE not the one about the car
	♥ 4:39pm MHLee: I always feel like a phlegmatic then I hear sad music and break down into melancholy
	♥ 4:39pm Paper Kosmonaut: Franco @ 04:38 is that an unissued Dusty Springfield song?
	♥ 4:39pm Rich in Washington: Most likely, SOp! I haven't listened to it yet. I have a large haul of thrift store records I need to preview for (lack of) quality assurance before subjecting them to listeners.
	♥ 4:40pm Franco Twinkie: I think it is, actually.
	♥ 4:40pm StringOFperils: Effort appreciated O_O
	4:40pm Otis: Hi Flan, a bit late to the party. Had to wheelbarrow a load of kitty litter up the block today.
	♥ 4:40pm flannery: god kitty litter... the worst errand
	♥ 4:41pm flannery: ive had an open call for an intern to come and change the litterbox for months annd would u believe it these entitled zoomers... just ignore me
	♥ 4:41pm MHLee: @Rich I'm sure you've heard the militaristic imagining of Laibach of "Jesus Christ Superstar"
	♥ 4:42pm MHLee: the kinks were sadbois
	♥ 4:42pm flannery: real sadbois yes
	♥ 4:43pm flannery: anyone here read the zine "life stinks i like the kinks"
	🐛 ♥ 4:43pm Aitch: Little Miss Queen of Darkness sounds like my ex.
	♥ 4:43pm flannery: weve all been LMQOD
	♥ 4:43pm Paper Kosmonaut: I had one like that too.
	4:44pm Otis: It's a "two cats, one box" sorta day.
	♥ 4:44pm MHLee: The Muswell Hillbillies album practically overflows with the melacholia
	4:44pm Otis: Kinks help.
	♥ 4:44pm flannery: at least they go in the box!!!
	♥ 4:44pm Paper Kosmonaut: I'll clean the cat's shitbox tomorrow.
	♥ 4:44pm Paper Kosmonaut: Mine come in for a shit. They never poop outside.
	♥ 4:45pm flannery: i really recommend life stinks/i like the kinks. ive been doing zines forever but guess what, i only like a few. that one really rocks
	♥ 4:45pm flannery: hyperarticulate extremely misanthropic read on the kinks. not wrong but also ...
	♥ 4:45pm Paper Kosmonaut: nice voices, these Heart Beats.
	4:45pm Otis: Flan, were a fan of Factsheet Five, years back too? I love zines but haven't been involved in any for almost 20 years now.
	♥ 4:45pm StringOFperils: The Mike Cotton Sound is in THE KINKS on Muswell so it's happy sad with all that brass
	♥ 4:46pm flannery: im a little young for factsheet five but had the anthology!!

	♥ 4:46pm flannery: and yeah i liked it quite a bit
	4:46pm Otis: There's an anthology? Holy moses, going to look that up. Thanks!
	4:47pm Otis: I am still too young for most things. But never too old.
	♥ 4:47pm flannery: ohhh so not an anthology exactly: www.amazon.com...
	4:48pm Otis: Did not know about the Zine Reader. Bookmarked, yay!
	♥ 4:49pm Franco Twinkie: This song is a cockroach in between your pancakes on a sunny morning.
	♥ 4:49pm MHLee: Beirut's gulag orkestar has hit the sad-happy and horns for me recently... more so than In an in an aeroplane Over the Sea has ever done for me
	♥ 4:51pm flannery: we're on the upswing...
	♥ 4:51pm StringOFperils: That NMH horn stuff is mental, I was in a room with them up close watching them play that. Crazy lot of racket
	♥ 4:52pm MHLee: I am rather unaware of what's going in modern music that isn't dungeonsynth

	♥ 4:54pm flannery: but u know, i only found out who sophie was when she died but was really inspired by what she had to say about making music that sounds like here & now... it really set me off
	♥ 4:55pm flannery: im still trying
	🐛 ♥ 4:55pm Feldpausch: im still crying
	♥ 4:55pm MHLee: I work at a college station, but I'm a PhD student and the * millennial *depends on the source
	♥ 4:56pm StringOFperils: I'm still tried
	♥ 4:56pm MHLee: I also get told I don't seem like a millennial but the silent generation type... whatever that means
	♥ 4:56pm flannery: i am ACCEPTING mix tapes from zoomers!!!
	♥ 4:57pm Paper Kosmonaut: These Lesley, Johnny and Judy should all make up their minds. Weak kids.
	♥ 4:57pm flannery: the SILENT GENERATION jeez who told u that

	♥ 4:39pm Paper Kosmonaut: Franco @ 04:38 is that an unissued Dusty Springfield song?
	♥ 4:39pm Rich in Washington: Most likely, SOp! I haven't listened to it yet. I have a large haul of thrift store records I need to preview for (lack of) quality assurance before subjecting them to listeners.

	4:48pm Otis: Did not know about the Zine Reader. Bookmarked, yay!
	♥ 4:49pm Franco Twinkie: This song is a cockroach in between your pancakes on a sunny morning.
	♥ 4:49pm MHLee: Beirut's gulag orkestar has hit the sad-happy and horns for me recently... more so than In an in an aeroplane Over the Sea has ever done for me
	♥ 4:51pm flannery: we're on the upswing...
	♥ 4:51pm StringOFperils: That NMH horn stuff is mental, I was in a room with them up close watching them play that. Crazy lot of racket

	♥ 4:56pm MHLee: I also get told I don't seem like a millennial but the silent generation type... whatever that means
	♥ 4:56pm flannery: i am ACCEPTING mix tapes from zoomers!!!
