I found the cheapest method to concatenate a stream of atoms to lists is
appending them with 'add2 $1' to a message box. Then you wait for the
message delimiting character ('10' or '13' in this case) to flush the
content of of the message box.

The resulting list can be passed to [list tosymbol]. However, be a aware
that the human-friendly outcome (e.g. 'Now playing: ROTHKO - On the Day
We Said Goodbye') will be a symbol, not a list and can't be parsed
easily with Pd tools.
