Pearl Jam:	Brain of J In Hiding Spin The Black Circle
Canzone:	"HIV Baby" by Soundgarden
Ed:	Alright Soundgarden that was you ahh that was you. HIV Baby ahh that's a rare kinda release these ahh because that was somethin' called the Sub Pop singles club ahh where ahh would give them a certain amount of money every year and ahh every month just like a magazine, they'd ahh send you a single. And ahh this was ahh I think quite a rare one. Ohmm and I think Sub Pop just started doin' that again so if you have any interest ahh I'm sure you can check in to it. Ahh now ahh there's a guy named Peter Buck and he's settin' up to ahh play something live for ya and to ahh but sitting next to me is ahh ohmm Mr. Krist Novoselic and ahh...
Krist:	Hi Eddie.
Ed:	Hi
Krist:	It's great to be back Monkey Wrench Radio. Wow thanks for havin' me.
Ed:	Yeah that's right. It's ahh its been a long year...
Krist:	Yeah yeah 1997 6 when was that 1995? Somethin' like that...
Ed:	Ahh just it feels like one long year ago.
Krist:	Yeah. One long year. Yeah.
Ed:	But you've got ahh maybe some words for us. Whatcha been up to?
Krist:	Oh God what have I been doin'? Well I've been doin' JamPac a lot ohmm I've been mostly doing JamPac. Finding some legislation here in Washington State. Been working on Inch Radio [?] Probably the coolest, well after Monkey Wrench Radio almost the coolest radio show after Monkey Wrench Radio and so if you want to hear Inch Radio call your radio program director at your station say we want Inch Radio.
Ed:	So Inch Radio that's somethin' different from pirate radio because its something you put together ahh is it a half hour show?
Krist:	Yeah it's like a half hour show. It's like a news magazine. Its ahh its really cool. Its like music information and ahh if you're not careful you might learn something ha ha God I noticed that ahh Jack in his drum set has this garbage can lid as like cymbal and it reminded me of the Fat Albert Band and ahh yeah I'm doin' that. I'm workin' on a film. I'm doin'a film ahh and that's what I brought by here. I brought by here the film is kinda bitter and irresponsible but in the end it's about personal triumph over ohmm adverse conditions so ohmm at the end of the film the devil kinds lays it all out and ahh I'd like to read somethin' from it. So maybe I'll ahh get cookin' on that right now... "Ceremonies and traditions are important to preserve structure. Structure is important to the collective. On the surface we interact through the structure of speech and other social connections. Underneath there is an interaction and social connection we all share unspoken this is a realm where the spirit of music dwells among other spirits all connected through the thread of love. All art and commerce - the struggle continues the emotional response to tones and rthyms is an experience that is uniquely human. I've never seen a monkey hand jive. Then again, monkeys don't put value on sticks and stones. Oh the struggle between emotion and cash. Don't you know necessity wins over tears? You've got to keep the plate on the table no matter how bad you feel. Songs make us laugh and songs make us cry. But that stuff ain't got no place on the bottom line. And by the way, speaking of lines, we signed on the dotted one. If we want to talk about a fair shake, remember what the guys say: shake it more than 3 times and you're playing with it. Shake it enough, who knows what you'll spill. Spill your guts on my doorstep and I'll wipe my feet on your format. Ahh, at versus commerce. Emotion versus cash. Essentially, flesh versus spirit. Everyone is looking for the new Messiah. It's always been that way. Just remember, for every Jesus, there is a Paul selling what you want to hear. Let us now take a moment before we give out the pink slips and bow our heads in prayer. 'Oh Messiah, on the scene, at the start our favorite flavor. At the end, a bitter taste. Unclean. Of course, we chew you up and spit you out. You must have heard this one before, but swimming up the mainstream has always been a chore. It's a weight the new Messiah carries. A shiney, shiney jewel. It's a rich bag full of spice, girls. It's there the boys who write the songs rule. The market and the stage - since when were they the same? What does the bank say? What does the player p lay? The ticket or the tune? A lote holds them apart. One fits in your pocket, the other in your heart. These days, it gets real fuzzy. It's hard to make out what's dear. When you've got to choose between the merchant or the balladeer. Amen.'"
Canzone:	"Wouldn't It By Nice" by The Beach Boys
Krist:	"It's been almost four years since Galgatha. Paul morphed into the Holy Roman Empire of Fast. That's the information age for you. After Peter walked into Cheetah Roman, they made his bones into candlestick holders. Apostle swag at planet vacation. Judas drags corpses across checkstand. Truth is all Greek to King James. The revival tent draws a crows 2,000 light years after the fact and the testimonies and baptisms are projected onscreen. The film holds some water but not enough to break God's law. The Holy Romans say the sun goes around the Earth. You better believe it or they'll burn you bad. Ask Gallileo. Good thing his Agent was connected. At Kasemsaki's last temptation, Paul bum rushes the hippie looking freak. 'I'll shall become your apostle whether you like it or not. I shall construct you and your life and your teachings and your crucifiction and resurrection just as I wish. Joseph, the carpenter of Nazareth did not beget you. I begot you. I, Paul, the Scribe from Tarsus and Selicia.' Judas karokes old age while the Messiah goes uncredited. The cherade will blast open upon the dirty lawyer's split nucleus. A shotgun can't cancel out the A Bomb. The fallout is still in orbit. And myself, I don't practice the religion their Messiah practiced. My saves my soul saves over 100% when it subscribes to liberation. Call now - 1 800 I am Free. That number again: 1-800-I A M - F R E E."
Song:	"Live For Today" by REM
Ed:	Ok ahh and in the next room I can see 'em from here ahh a band with more people than any other band that ahh that's ever done this show to this point ahh I can see Peter Buck. I can see guy named Sherat who plays sax. Ahh it's quite a few. I'm gonna have to find my list to name everybody but ahh guy named Barrett playin' drums. Ahh and ahh and as a collective they're called Tuatara and ahh hope you got your tape recorders goin' cause ahh they're gonna play for ya right now.
Tuatara:	Saturday Night Church L'Espionnage de Pomme de Terre Serengeti The Streets of New Delhi
Ed:	So there you have it. Tuatara. This is ahh Chris Cornell singin' ahh a song called "Sunshower."
Canzone:	"Sunshower" by Chris Cornell
Ed:	Alright. As I mentioned that's ahh my friend Chris Cornell playin'. Ahh so we've ccovered Chris and Matt ahh tonight ahh cause we had Well Water Conspiracy and then there's a bond called Hater ahh when Ben playes in ahh I think Matt has another band ahh I think even Ben has another band besides that and ahh you Kim's doing good too so ahh ahh say hello to those guys and I heard ahh ahh well I got this guy ahh Watt on the phone. Mike Watt. Are you there?
Watt:	Yeah.
Ed:	Hey.
Watt:	I hear Krist and those cats.
Ed:	Yeah.
Watt:	There's a devil dog too or somethin' .
Ed:	Ahh I heard we lost ahh lost to LA down there.
Watt:	Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Air rush.
Ed:	Air rushed out.
Watt:	There's a crop and it's right at the end. I got Brian Wilson. You know, I read that book. It's a trippy book.
Ed:	On Brian?
Watt:	Ahh Wouldn't It Be Nice. Ahh Mike Love. I guess when the cousin sued him for it, won it in Connetticutt. I was readin' in the paper. But right after that song also, there was a bunch of generic new wave. They ahh the plug got pulled.
Ed:	I think ahh yeah. Well I was just thinkin' that ahh it's a little hectic runnin' around here between the live band speakers and ahh collecting our thoughts to play the records and ahh then I was thinkin' it must be great to be a regular DJ who just sits back and ya know who just plays records as opposed to all this other stuff and you know they can just sit back and play whatever they want and then I thought, but they can't. Ya know? Those guys ahh are on a play list and all these ahh...
Watt:	I think Krist was sayin' that in his poem. He says is it it is it the players or is it the danglers? And ya know art and commerce spill thing stuff that guy was getting' heavy. Us Krockers was sweatin' under the collars and stuff. It got they might have gotten the amen's and stuff. I think it was like I said too much weight for the brain to take and they ain't I don't know.
Ed:	The words just might've been knockin' out the satellites instead of bouncin' off.
Watt:	Yeah. It was it was great thought man to hear him and I remember the last time yeah he was talkin' with ya too man. He's ahh he he asked me to come up there. He's send this bunch of stuff and he's got this place by the border near Oregon there and ahh a lot of places need to be torn down with the salt zogs and pry bars and he wants to build some new sheds and stuff and the old house and stuff and he says to 'come on Watt out for a week.' He says we take some Volkswagon 3 dead ones andmake one live one.
Ed:	Yeah. Destruct and reconstruct. That's actually how he thinks a lot ahh...
Watt:	He told me the band think he's out kinda bummin' him the Art and Commerce.
Ed:	Yeah. Art and Commerce. It looks like is ahh ahh is smothered. Ahh Sweet 75 - this one record, a good record, I'm glad I got to see 'em 6 or 7 times I think, maybe, cause ahh they were playing with Hovercraft so ahh...
Watt:	Saw 'em in LA at The Trube.
Ed:	Yeah that's right. We were down there. Kyra was down there. So ohmm anyways...
Watt:	Have a guitar?
Ed:	12 string.
Watt:	Yeah that was a trip.
Ed:	Yeah Krist is somthin' else. What...
Watt:	Band and stuff. But ahh I think people just got a I like the way he's just framed.
Ed:	Yeah ahh that's ahh I think it's not allowed a lot of times and apparently ahh you know not in ahh not in LA tonight. Ohmm..
Watt:	You jive guys. I got you guys. It's trippy.
Ed:	Well, hey the last time we were talkin' no you had a spill...
Watt:	The wall went down. Went down like and that was it. Brian Wilson and that was it.
Ed:	KROK. KROK. I'm sure they mean well. Someone at the station does.
Watt:	Ah Spin the Black Circle. You guys playin' it live it sounded good too. You guys it was pumpin'.
Ed:	Ahh good. That's our tribute to vinyl. Well actually we're tryin' to keep it all vinyl that we're playin' tonight. Actually, last time that we we ahh spoke ahh you had a record out. That was the ahh last year ahh well it was a long year. Maybe three years ago. But it feels like a year.
Watt:	Long year.
Ed:	Ahh but ahh in this long year ahh you've completed another and I was thinkin' we'd play somethin' off of it and ahh ahh you wanna tell us the ahh the title? About the album and the track?
Watt:	Yeah. It's a heavy thing for me. An opera about ohmm one day. 24 hours. And I made the tunes go round the day and this was kinda early in the mornin' on the bike ride. It has to do with these 3 guys on a boat. They're sailors and it's kinda like ahh I got to thinkin' I was a decade in last year. And it was a trip and so I started thinkin' ya know I was on a bus for the 1st time and ahh..
Ed:	That was with ahh I know the band but you can tell everybody.
Watt:	... perk and I was thinkin' a lot about the band and I mean that was a boat too but to them it was seeming like a boat. I got this book "The Sand Pebbles" which was one of me and D Boones favorite movie when we as kids and the book is just so much so intense.
Ed:	Hmm...
Watt:	And ahh so I got spurred on and made this opera and it was kind of a Valentine to people I've lost. Pop and Boone.
Ed:	Yeah I don't know how many people have gotten to hear it yet but ahh but you know I was even talking to you know I I've been listening to it and I was kinda impressed to hear someone like this guyDave Marsh who listens to tons of records and ahh knows music history like ahh ahh you know ahh ahh life and ahh ahh he thought it was the best rock opera he'd heard and you know since ahh you know....
Watt:	Well that's very nice.
Ed:	Since Mr. Townsend and all that ya know.
Watt:	Well ahh it's been almost it's been 12 years and I just wanted to make a piece I wanted to integrate my thing I been ahh pretty skitso for years I been pretty fragmented for years and stuff. I just wanted to be grout for a bathroom tiles I hope the tiles you get it and use it for a day. Cause I think one life is many days. You know the sun rises. The sun sets. The week could be nineteen days. Could be five. But you know why but the day is real I think I just I I well you go down. You're makin' the records now and after and after after you just want somethin' in you inside in it was just circumstance that shoved it out of you. I I had tell you it had to be a decade under the way.
Ed:	That was with ahh yeah very long span.
Watt:	It was a trip. And was waitin' for that and wear those funky you know dresses or pajamas or whatever but it was like sailor suits. Ahh I remember bein' a boy and seein' my dad wearin' those suits and then the hippies copied their pants with bell bottoms I just I they had to have kahoneys to look like that and then he told me they all had jobs. Like they wore the bibs cause they carved their hair. And they wore the hat cause the hat could be a bucket and they could bail water and like they all had and the bell bottoms you could get out and float. It all had device and stuff [laughs] somethin' about it playin' in that unit with them and then the idea of him tellin' these little stories and then I thought why don't I tell a big story. And that's the whole idea of the opera.
Ed:	And this is ahh this song come in ahh ahh in the 24 hours we're talkin' this song comes in the morning?
Watt:	Yeah ahh in the morning. Well see, most of the time see I'm sittin' there with the bass and that's how I write the song. But this record, I wrote all on the bike. I got one song all for the route for the bike where I wrote. See I'm lucky in Pedro. Like I say in the end I'm a lucky man. Geography. I don't know. The cliffs. The boats. The pelicans. It's intense. And what I did, I just opened my eyes and let it all just fill. Like in this song I call Eye Gifts. You just open 'em up and they come right in all the rythms or the waves or pounders, you do surfin' and stuff...
Ed:	Yeah.
Watt:	On the bike, you learn to listen man you know?
Ed:	Yeah.
Watt:	Different than the band. So so this is one where I was with this then. It's a trip. So Pedro Bound...
Ed:	Let's ahh let's play this thing.
Watt:	Sailor man. My daddy you gotta understand... Navy housin' right or anyone who moves around you get orders and you got to move. And this about getting' orders to move to Pedro. This was gonna be our last move. It was our 11th move. My mom says no more movin' this is it. And it ended up bein' my home and this is where I met D Boone, where I was a Minute Man. This is my home. Now I'm a Pedro Man. But you know I'm not really a Pedro, I was like a sailor in a way and am still torn and stuff. Both things still dazzle me. In a way Still tryin' to make sense of it bit it's ahh...
Ed:	Well just like ahh what Krist had written.
Watt:	A mean opera. I just feel good about it. Sayin' these things. In a in a and then with Hodges and Nells for makin' it. It was a trip for me. Cause bass is like a rudder man. You know? You cannot sail sails with your own breath. You can try. I do.
Ed:	Its it's a broom. A rudder.
Watt:	A broom.
Ed:	It's a bike.
Watt:	You got rudders. You got orders.
Ed:	With big wheels.
Watt:	You got a deck, huh. You know.
Ed:	Ok ahh well I got to got to get to this track cause ahh I got another band still ready to play and ahh but ahh I should call you tomorrow and we ahh we'll keep talkin'. But I' glad I hope that some people got to hear where Watt was comin' from.
Watt:	Alright.
Ed:	Alright? Ok so this is Pedro Bound. I'll call ya tomorrow.

Ed:	Ok so you heard the story. So that was the last stop for Watt. Pedro. Ahh now we didn't mean to ahh get on KROKor on anybody we don't mean to ahh get on anybody.

Song:	"" by Hovercraft
Sound Byte:	[Unknown] I'm so much happier since I joined the legion of doom. Who cares if Superman and his bunch always spoil our evil schemes? Nobody ever gets hurt and we always get away at the last minute. Good doesn't really triumph over evil, it just postpones it. In the end, we're always the one who gets to claim the last laugh. Which is the whole point of being a super villain in the first place is cause of the laughs. You don't know how much fun an evil laugh can be until you've tried it. Everybody here at the legion are the best laughers. We throw big catered parties and all the super bad guys come and we crack jokes about Batman and Superman and we just laugh like crazy. Everybody practices and perfects their own brand of personal evil laughter. There are so many possibilities. You can cackle or chortle or gaffaw or chuckle or titter or giggle or snicker or roar or just snort. You can be ominous or menacing. You can bent or you can be grim. You can be forboding or just be filled with sick laughter. You can just be sick. The possibilities are endless. There is nothing like the combined laughter of a dozen maniacal madmen. We have such great a parties.
Ed:	Alright. Well ahh thanks for comin' to our party tonight and ahh ahh a sincere thank you to any and all radio stations ahh throughout ahh the United States here that have ahh carried it. We hoped that we did ahh hope we did ok programming. Ahh we took advantage of the freedom ahh ahh that you gave us to do whatever we wanted so ahh ahh I'm I'm actually just startin' to have a pretty good time here so ahh you know I don't know if I'm a villain or if I'm ahh ahh a good guy ahh but you know we got this opportunity to make music and there is a little attention that goes along with it and ahh we thought we'd ahh ahh spread the wealth a little bit. Ohmm yeah. Let me think of a final thought here. What's been on my mind is the media attention. Ahh maybe I'll go on a rant here. Got a few minutes. Ahh it's kinda crazy this thing about the President's penis, isn't it? You know it's it's ahh sexually intriguing. I admit ther e might be a little interest there but that's a little interest and to see ahh people like Peter Jennings and people like Cokie Roberts and ahh people with college degrees going to waste talking about this kind of stuff. Theme songs to go with the ahh the latest Presidential conflict. Clinton in Crisis. I kinda don't to be honest, I don't give a fuck about President Clinton. Ahh not as a person. I mean ahh ahh it's fine. Whatever happens, happens. Just get down to business. All these guys arguing amongst themselves. This is my little rant. Again ahh without a college degree. You know, campaign finance, get over it. Let's go. This stuff exposing ahh ahh these little kind of things, get over it. We voted you in and give you our tax money to take care of us. Get to work. Quit fighting amongst each other. Get to work. Ohmm well that's pretty much ahh my rant. Ahh Look I think we're ahh gonna be tourin' this summer so we'll see you all out there. We might even bring ou r little pirate radio station so if you're in the parking lot ahh you might even be able to hear a few ahh private words comin' at ya and ahh spin some things. Maybe spin some records that maybe you might not here normally. Ahh the last year it was at 89.1 ahh imagine it should be the same. So ahh good luck with that. Again, good luck to all the radio stations out there ahh programming things that they want to program ahh thanks again for playin' us and ohmm and ahh I guess I should have wrote this down. See I'm not good at speeches. You should've remembered that from the band. Ohmm I guess it's just time to say ahh say goodnight. Ahh thanks to all the bands: Tuatara, Brad, Zeke, Mudhoney ahh and I thank the guys in my band for lettin' me be the ahh program director for tonight and even the people in here that've helped, which is Harvey, Mitch and Sonny and ahh you got guys in the satellite trucks and ahh it's been a good night. Can we take a phone call? Hello?
Ed:	Ahh it's me. Oh here, I got to put it down for a second. Hello?
Shannon:	Hello? This is Shannon from Des Plaines in Chicago.
Ed:	Des Planes? Yeah I know where that is.
Shannon:	Yeah, well why I just wanted to tell you that you're great. So I wanted to tell you I've listened to all of your shows that you've had and I thought they were great.
Ed:	Ok ohmm Wow ohmm thanks a lot. I'm impressed with your tenacity with this band. We really appreciate that. If it weren't for you, we couldn't do this kind of thing. And actually ahh ahh I wouldn't even be able to surf and ahh ahh take time off to have the life that ahh ahh we get to have now days if it weren't for you. So I hope it was a good trade. I hope the music's alright.
Shannon:	Yeah, it's wonderful.
Ed:	Well thank you.
Shannon:	Thanks and god luck on the rest of your show.
Ed:	Ok well we like this one and hope you do too and we'll see ya this summer in Chicago, hopefully. Ok ahh see I just promised I would try to take one call before the end of the night. Ok ahh ahh that's it folks. See ya all out there. Take care of yourselves. Take care of one one another. You know, the usual stuff. See if I can find it.
