Wed. May 27th, 9pm - Midnight: Eugene Reynolds of the Revillos/Rezillos (More info...)

Following the break-up of the Scottish punk band The Rezillos, singers Eugene Reynolds and Fay Fife learned to play instruments, honed their songwriting skills, and put together a sci-fi pop/new wave combo called The Revillos. A new six(!) CD Revillos collection called Stratoplay has just been released on the Cherry Red label in the UK; tune in to WFMU this Wednesday night at 9pm to hear Eugene talk about the new collection, share some Revillos memories, and more!

	♥ 9:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - more like I didn't even catch it - my loss ! - Okay - one of the better Petty tracks...
	♥ 9:06pm fleep: I am not a deserter. I have the attention span of a mayfly.
	9:07pm Holly in NC: And Loretta, with your gorgeous beast...but nothing against rabbits & dolphins, of course!
	9:07pm Callieflower: Aw, ty Holly. So's yours!
	♥ 9:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yeah - really like that kittyface Callieflower...been meaning to say...
	9:09pm Holly in NC: New Jacco? Happy me.
	9:10pm Callieflower: :) And she's currently asleep in a warm little kitty igloo that I bought for her today. It's an even cuter face while sleeping!
	♥ 9:10pm Santos L Halper: @fleepI bet a mayfly is more focused on that one day of life than i've ever been. Can't say i blame 'em. Don't have to remind them to carpe diem
	♥ 9:11pm Mike East: nice, made it in time for jacco gardner. I was just wondering the other day when he was going to come out with something new. sounds great.
	9:12pm steve: hey all. wow, that instrumental was super duper
	9:13pm Trouble In Mind: The Jacco single's been out since September ya'll! Still available at the TiM site!
	9:13pm Holly in NC: Clicky star You, as well. Hi Steve!
	♥ 9:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - is Jacco self-produced ?
	♥ 9:14pm Mike East: but when's he coming out with something new, Trouble In Mind? I'm talking full length!
	♥ 9:15pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it is seriously an alley full of cats here...
	9:16pm BadGuyZero: Hiya!
	9:18pm Holly in NC: @Trouble in Mind, whoops! I am so behind in reading distro & store updates, not to mention laxness in keeping up w. twitter, mea culpa.
	9:18pm Trouble In Mind: yep RevRabbit, Jacco is self-produced & Mike East, he just got off a pretty brutal tour schedule so I think he's hunkering down now & writing...
