hello, the chat is on.

Hello!

Hi Rob

Wheee!

I know, Amy. I feel the same way.

Ray's birthday was Sunday? I missed it!

yeah, it popped up on my feed

Today is the birthday for Steve Shelley, Glenn Danzig and Alan Vega. There's a celebration tonight at the Bowery Palace for Vega.

Some incredible band names to start the show

I would go but I gotta watch the NBA draft. I saw Kenny Gray is playing there soon, I love that guy.

Kelly, hopefully more clever names to come

@David - thx for always sharing show info.

agreed

This is great!

agreed again

liken this john! sup all

Same Michael, thanks foe tuning in

@ John Tobias (host) Mandalai Lamas' "7th Seal" is a captivating track. Can definitely hear the best of '60s psychedelia influence. I'll be on the lookout (or maybe the listen-in ...) from this group. Thanks for playing it.

Thanks Richard, it seems to be a hit

Swamp Dogg doc: https://magpictures.com/swampdogg

Thanks David

Swirly pancakes!

A classic

Totally true!!!

I see what you did there

The first time I saw the Upper Crust, one member responded to another's insult with a glove slap to the face. Dueling pistols were then presented to settle their differences, though the Maxwell’s stage was too small for them to walk the customary 10 paces before firing. I forget exactly how it ended, but nobody was killed.

Was it part of the act or real?

joking, of course

Ten paces may have made it to the back of Maxwells.

*we* eat drink and sleep WPRB

Sounds like a good plan

Hello Tobias! Good to see you. I see you played Fishbone. Very nice

Thanks, they might be reappearing on the Total Tobias Great American Rock and Roll Songbook on July 2 - for America's greatest hits

"Lying Ass Bitch" is an American Classic

yes, but nor for FCC though

Rt 1 at 5? Good luck with that

Some truly excellent band names and a terrific show today! Thank you

It's half "tangent" and half "gradient

Great show, ty John! Until the next time

Marcus, that's not helping me

Thanks, Rob

Actually, I get it now, but I'm done speaking for today.

John, it's name made up by someone who fell asleep in High School Geometry

Great show!

Thanks Marcus

Although tangents and gradients are useful in Machine Learning for steepest descent algorithms

That clears it up
