	🎸 ♥ 6:39pm MikeG: Enjoying a beer and peanut butter oreos while listening to Esquivel. Gonna be an OUTRAGEOUS weekend.
	6:39pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "(see comments)" by "Esquivel & His Orchestra" This is such a good show, very well recorded. But don't think it's ever been officially released?
	🎸 ♥ 6:40pm dale: that version of sunny! i guess the lyrics have been deemed unnecessary and dispensed with.
	🎸 ♥ 6:41pm dale: ↳ MikeG @6:39 that meal sounds wildly appropriate.
	🎸 ♥ 6:42pm dale: why is there no applause? is the audience to mired in the buffet to have a free hand to clap with?
	6:43pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:39 As far as I can tell, not officially. Too bad. This is the ultimate lounge bootleg! I wish there was more....

	6:58pm Buddy Runyan: It’s all good crap!
	6:58pm Don-O: BTW, has anybody got the news about the latest Combustible Edison release? It a selection of demos.
	6:58pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @6:43 I always like singers' live-in-Vegas albums. They're more wild and naughty, compared to the family-friendly studio albums.
	7:02pm Buddy Runyan: Great stereo sound
	7:03pm Don-O: ↳ Buddy Runyan @7:02 .....and this is a bootleg.
	7:09pm Dean: Public access TV: That's where I first (and last) saw Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo.
	7:11pm Don-O: ↳ Dean @7:09 I miss public access TV in LA! I have a audio clip from a african american preacher who was SO angry that he cussed out every caller and dropped the n-word and f-bomds every minutes. Intense and entertaining.
	7:12pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @6:58 Ooh, would love some new Combustible Edison. Even if it's old new Combustible Edison.
	7:13pm Dean: Agreed. There was Dr. Gene Scott and other assorted preachers, the odd (post-)punk talk shows, one with Richard Meltzer, I seem to recall.
	7:13pm Don-O: ↳ Dean @7:09 .....and then there was this lady named Karen who did restaurant reviews that bairly talked bout the food. I had a serious crush on her!
	7:13pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @7:12 I went to Bandcamp ordered that demo CD of theirs just yesterday.
	7:14pm Dean: Damn, that doesn't ring a bell. Karen? Bette Midler's husband, at the time he was working regularly as a Kipper Kid, appeared on a show about commodity investment. Funny only if you knew the background.
	7:14pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @7:12 sundazedmusic.bandcamp.com...
	🎸 ♥ 7:17pm Cp304: Hey Don-O and peoples! Gonna crank up the crap and go check for tics..
	7:18pm Don-O: Aw, her name was Karen Silkland
	7:18pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @7:17 Hey, Cp304! I hope the crap is crappy enough fer ya.
	7:19pm Mr Fab: Ah yes, LA public access. I recall: -Dancing Francine, an older kinda chubby woman who just shimmied to music in a skimpy outfit. -Sabrina, of the Church of the Most-High Goddess, who talked about having sex with over 3000 men (for religious purposes, dontcha know) -of course David Leibe Hart and his Junior Christian Bible Puppet Show, or whatever it was called You'd think YouTube would be providing an infinite amount of public-access style lunacy. So where is it?
	7:21pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @7:19 I came up with nothing when looking for 'karen silkland's restaurant reviews'. Oh, well. Enjoy that TV fun while you can!
	7:25pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @7:21 I couldn't find anything either. I searched "Karen Silkland public access tv." i saw a nude wedding on NYC cable access once (during the '80s of course).
	7:25pm Dean: I searched directly on archive.org, which is where I'd expect to find at least audio. Nope.
	7:27pm Mr Fab: not in the track listing, but this is def a cover of Peggy Lee's "Is that All There Is"
	7:29pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @7:27 Fixed. Thanks, Mr. Fab!
	7:29pm Dean: But if you search "los angeles public access television" on YT, you'll get a good sample of stuff, e.g., this one from the late, great Aron's Records: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMzEAXwI-fY
	7:34pm Don-O: ↳ Dean @7:29 I JUST saw that Aaron's video, Dean. Looks great. I will have to watch it later! Just added it to my 'My Parts Of Los Angeles' YT playlist!!
	7:34pm Mr Fab: ↳ Dean @7:29 Nice find! Didn't listen to it, just looked at it. Wow, I'd forgotten how small it was compared to when it moved to Highland.
	7:35pm Dean: That was Pico, right?
	7:35pm Mr Fab: Melrose
	7:35pm Dean: Oh, right, duh.
	7:36pm Don-O: We're at the half-way point of this show!
	♥ 7:37pm Neil Neil the orange peel: Cheers Don-O
	7:38pm Don-O: ↳ Neil Neil the orange peel @7:37 Ah, Mr. Orange Peel! Welcome to der crap!
	♥ 7:41pm Neil Neil the orange peel: ↳ Don-O @7:38 Fantastic, have a great weekend Don-O x
	7:43pm Don-O: ↳ Neil Neil the orange peel @7:41 I'm off the mic, but the show goes on for another hour!
	🎸 ♥ 7:45pm WR: ↳ Song: "(see comments)" by "Spike Jones" This afternoon instead of finishing a report for work I skimmed 4 Spike Jones TV shows that were released on DVD. Amazing to watch them do the material I've come to know well via radio broadcast recordings.
	7:47pm Dean: Speaking of Kipper Kids...
	7:49pm Mr Fab: ↳ WR @7:45 That's amazing. As much as I love Spike Jones, I don't know if I've seen live footage of him..?
	🎸 ♥ 7:54pm WR: ↳ Mr Fab @7:49 It is a two DVD set I found at the library that I rippped. I'll look and if it seems the material isn't easily available online will get copy to you.
	8:02pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "(see comments)" by "Spike Jones" I bumped into a series of photos of a noodle restaurant Spike opened in Beverly Hills. He never lived to see the place open and it closed a short time later. Too bad I can't those photos here.
	8:04pm Don-O: ↳ Don-O @8:02 'Oodles Of Noodles' on 163 No. La Clenega, Beverly Hills, CA.
	8:09pm Dean: Wow, that's just up the street from Lawry's Prime Rib.
	🎸 ♥ 8:12pm Cp304: Bonus Crap!
	8:14pm Dean: Oodles got a brief favorable review in the LA Times on Dec. 17, 1965. Earlier, on Nov. 15, 1965, a sighting of strands of spaghetti drying on a clothesline at the back of the restaurant. There were plans to expand to a chain.
	8:16pm Dean: Do people die from baldness?
	8:17pm Dean: Never mind. He died from getting laid.
	8:24pm Dean: WP: In an interview, when Hicks was asked why he had quit smoking, he answered, "I just wanted to see if Denis would, too." Leary was in Montreal hosting the "Nasty Show" at Club Soda, and Colleen [McGarr?] was coordinating the talent, so she stood backstage and overheard Leary doing material incredibly similar to old Hicks riffs, including his perennial Jim Fixx joke: "Keith Richards outlived Jim Fixx, the runner and health nut. The plot thickens." When Leary came offstage, Colleen, more stunned than angry, said, "Hey, you know that's Bill Hicks' material! Do you know that's his material?" Leary stood there, stared at her without saying a word, and briskly left the dressing room.
	8:25pm Dean: ^Denis Leary, plagiarist
	8:29pm Androu B.: Hi-ho, Don-O! Missed out on Esquivel & Combustible Edison, but made it in time for Spike (Torturous on the ear! Not exactly in top form in that performance. I could imagine the rest pf his Aus tour was equally awkward.) and now, at last, by popular demand (by me especially), I get to hear the drastic, bombastic, and truly craptastic Bill Hicks! MY MAN!
	8:32pm Dean: Naw, he woulda been ancienter if he hadn't smoked.
	8:34pm Androu B.: ↳ Dean @8:24 Coincidentally, I was an extra in the 5th season of Leary's FX series "Rescue Me". It's true!
	8:37pm Androu B.: ↳ Androu B. @8:34 But just for one episode, the one where the FD has a hockey match against the PD. I was one of the spectators in the bleachers.
	8:38pm Don-O: ↳ Androu B. @8:29 Hey, Androu B.!
	8:48pm Dean: I wonder if he's talking specifically about AZ law or some generic law. Whatever happened to "stop, look both ways, and listen"?
	🎸 ♥ 8:50pm Cp304: ↳ Dean @8:48 The door, is a jar Dean
	8:52pm Dean: The riots after the Rodney King verdict: to my mind, justified. But the abuse to Denny, unacceptable. I was working in downtown LA that day. Had to catch so-called rapid transit, public transportation, to get home. Buses were not running, even in the east end of LA County where I lived. I saw absolutely nothing suggesting there were "riots." TV fucks up our access to reliable information.
	8:55pm Dean: LA cops, true gentlemen and -ladies.
	8:57pm Dean: But I disagree. If you have to select a cohort of guys with balls, don't go heading to LAPD. Monsters? Yes. Men? No.
	8:57pm Don-O: Welp, my thanks to all for sticking around for this week's crap. 'Till next week, y'all!
	8:58pm Androu B.: The Rodney King verdict riots provided craploads of comedy material for everyone from stand-up comics to talk show hosts and sketch comedy shows (In Living Color, in particular, where they mocked King's infamous press conference quote "Can't we all just get along?" and milked it to death).
	🎸 ♥ 8:58pm Cp304: Thanks Don-O,!
	8:58pm Androu B.: Thanks, Don-O!
	🎸 ♥ 8:59pm WR: Thank you Don-O. That was so funny it hurt. Laters all.

	🎸 ♥ 8:12pm Cp304: Bonus Crap!
	8:14pm Dean: Oodles got a brief favorable review in the LA Times on Dec. 17, 1965. Earlier, on Nov. 15, 1965, a sighting of strands of spaghetti drying on a clothesline at the back of the restaurant. There were plans to expand to a chain.

	🎸 ♥ 8:50pm Cp304: ↳ Dean @8:48 The door, is a jar Dean
	8:52pm Dean: The riots after the Rodney King verdict: to my mind, justified. But the abuse to Denny, unacceptable. I was working in downtown LA that day. Had to catch so-called rapid transit, public transportation, to get home. Buses were not running, even in the east end of LA County where I lived. I saw absolutely nothing suggesting there were "riots." TV fucks up our access to reliable information.
