	12:01pm Handy Haversack: efd! All the other letters!

	12:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hallo !! ...I listen to your Archive a week late on Wed. A.M.s so I can catch MaryWing in this timeslot - so just saw this morning you played the title track off my friend Glenn Hicks' band's new album St. Astronaut last week ! Glenn condescended to play with us here in smalltown NewHampshuh in a basement band - but had to go back to Bloomington - & he's got his great band Griffy out there : griffy.bandcamp.com... I'm real proud of his talents & I appreciate you featuring that.
	12:08pm Figgsrock: Wow, that Soul Train track was...something.
	12:10pm Mister Dobalina: eFd, is where it's at !
	12:11pm Handy Haversack: I finally realized what bothers me about being back at the office -- there's no boombox in the bathroom here tuned to WFMU! How does this place survive?!
	12:12pm Yes: hello EFD, fam. dig the bill and taffy
	12:12pm Chris Crash: Good morning, Mr. Funk!
	12:15pm chris_in_space: @Handy Haversack I've put WFMU on our studio speakers at work in the past. Every time I do I realize how weird I really am. Everything seems normal at home, but with other people around? Context is everything.
	12:16pm herb.nyc: How joyous, to hear Evan in the daylight hours! Has the ticket giveaway returned? At 2pm? “Boots are made for walking”- friend and I saw Nancy Sinatra play at maxwells! Aside- can ya play The Unbrellas, Evan? Friend sez they have a Dec 3 nyc show.
	12:20pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Daaang, I'm right back in high school with the Boston tune.
	12:20pm Handy Haversack: Ha, chris_in_space, totally. I saw a friend I hadn't seen in a while and was playing some new music I'd picked up. "Oh, and I found this on a show called Strength Through Failure --" "Please turn this off."
	12:21pm Hoboken Jack: Hi EFD, Handy, remote Bagpipe, all!
	12:21pm clarke: i made it!!! i don't feeel tardy.
	12:21pm karlward: Don't tell me how to plan
	12:22pm karlward: I put the important stuff all the way at the back of this list BECAUSE they are important
	12:22pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack, clarke!
	12:22pm chris_in_space: @Handy how did you know I was thinking of Fabs too?
	12:22pm Figgsrock: Brad Delp's passing was one of the saddest stories I ever wrote for my day job.
	12:23pm clarke: howdy handy! and all.
	12:23pm tim from washington: efd! efd! efd!
	12:24pm Stevel: "The hairdryer problem."
	12:24pm Hoboken Jack: Hi Clarke!
	12:24pm clarke: smedley's group.... wacky races??
	12:24pm worker: Im literally working on cordless electric product designs rn. This is too close to home.
	12:24pm vinylmonkee: Oh the tooling expenses!
	12:25pm karlward: Then I burn all the cards
	12:25pm clarke: efd - did you live in c'ville at one time??
	12:25pm morphe': Nation's Business = current events? Most unusual my dear Watson...
	12:25pm worker: this is all going to be replaced by the blockchain
	12:26pm clarke: and, Sidetracks was an off-shoot of Tracks??
	12:26pm karlward: When the blockchain is used for everything in the world, Borges will have been proven right
	12:26pm Stevel: "Frank. You screwed up the production task I assigned you. Sit down and listen to this record."
	12:26pm worker: also companies are going to be replaced by DAOs. but not WFMU. wfmu is anti-algorithmic.
	12:26pm Chris Crash: This card method was how Frank Casshern ran the Mets in the 80s
	12:26pm efd: @clarke nope, was there for the first time a couple weeks ago
	12:27pm PaulRobeson1920: Hi Hi Hi ya’ll! Hi EFD! Sounding goood!!! Go goo gaa gaa!
	12:27pm clarke: ah. nice place, huh??
	12:27pm SpamPrince: Finally - some much-needed aid organizing my priorities! Thx EFD.
	12:27pm Chris Crash: *Frank Cashen LMAO not me getting the guy who ran the Mets confused with an obscure anime 🤣🤣🤣
	12:28pm clarke: i have just played thru there - back in 'the day' but gorgeous area!!
	12:28pm Hoboken Jack: SteveL!
	12:29pm Kat in Chicago: Checking in after a mercifully brief meeting, hi Funksters
	12:29pm Stevel: Jack! Just saw some lovely photos of you with Suzy's elongated canine!
	12:29pm clarke: hey jack!! whats the new in h'boken??
	12:30pm efd: @clarke without wanting to out you, were you at one time in bands with the initials DRR and UY?
	12:31pm clarke: was, among others. not so proud of the DRR part.
	12:32pm clarke: in my own defense - it was a different band when i was in it
	12:33pm clarke: man, Frederick MD is pretty dang cool, too!!
	12:33pm karlward: THE TRAIN
	12:34pm karlward: I will not miss the Train
	12:35pm Stevel: Test pressings sound like a serious rabbit hole.
	12:38pm Hoboken Jack: SteveL, little Yoo-Hoo is a sweetie and a gentleman! Clarke, Hoboken highlight is 4-star Admiral McRaven doing a storytime at the library with his new picture book! Was on CBS this morning.
	12:39pm clarke: celeb explosion!!!
	12:39pm Ryansterlingvirtue: yay pulp
	12:39pm iiibeat: Low is a super cool spot. Hopefully you got some threads!! lol
	12:42pm Jack McGuire: I remember listening to Ken Katkin on PRB a million years ago. Thanks for sharin'.
	12:42pm clarke: Plan 9 Records originated in c'ville. am guess their richmond store is all that's left?
	12:43pm clarke: -guessing
	12:43pm efd: @clarke I didn't make the connection until I saw your full name in my list of pledgers after the Hellraiser (thanks for pledging, btw!)
	12:44pm clarke: OF COURSE, duuuude!!!!!
	12:44pm efd: @clarke C'ville plan 9 is still there, but mostly CDs and new vinyl, not much used vinyl
	12:44pm clarke: ah. too bad - used to be a fantastic store!!
	12:45pm clarke: i envy that trip you just went on!!!
	12:48pm Handy Haversack: Ha, the fact that efd is playing stuff I picked up on the last Bandcamp Friday only shows where I get my Bandcamp wishlist from!
	12:49pm clarke: on both yer sleeves, handy!!
	12:49pm Van: Howdy everyone! Just tuning in, I missed Eyelids, been digging them lately.
	12:50pm clarke: are u covered in kittens, today, btw??
	12:50pm tim from washington: @Handy - are you really efd using an alias?
	12:50pm Handy Haversack: At the office today, clarke -- and missing Goblin and Bugbear very much!
	12:51pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): What's an office?
	12:51pm clarke: i gave at the office!!
	12:52pm clarke: these are some BUENO tunes!!!
	12:53pm Handy Haversack: I think efd could do a lot better, tim! Woods, it's where you go to let your recent kitten scratches scab over so you can get more kitten scratches when you get home.
	12:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, efd and funk folk.
	12:54pm Hoboken Jack: So the IC would be another Clarke band. Nice! Hey HP Ken!
	12:55pm clarke: bongo joe - WORKIN' IT!!!
	12:56pm clarke: yes, the casuals was one of my favorite times
	12:58pm Andrew Hollywood: 🎧🎧🎧
	12:59pm Various Julius: oh boy
	12:59pm efd: HAHA!
	12:59pm efd: I love it.
	1:00pm Figgsrock: Wow, a pre-recorded top of the hour ID.
	1:00pm efd: I'm bigtiming the daytime
	1:01pm Figgsrock: HA! What's next EFD, a sweeper in between songs?
	1:01pm clarke: BIGTIME!!
	1:02pm Roberto: This song is relatable, especially the part about stepping in kitty litter.
	1:02pm Ed: Love the Airport 77s. They're like the best band of the late 70s/early eighties who never existed then!
	1:03pm clarke: any youse guys just get that misive from Peter Holsapple??
	1:03pm clarke: -missive
	1:03pm tim from washington: Oooh, Wind-Ups were right up my alley. I like a band that sounds like brilliant dunderheads or dunderheaded geniuses.
	1:03pm Ed: Running to bandcamp to get the single now!
	1:05pm Various Julius: Thanks for the spin! No worries about the NYC gig, which was pretty good time though
	1:05pm Van: Need to add that Airport 77s to my bandcamp wishlist (and buy it on the next Bandcamp Friday)... anyone know when the next BC Friday is?
	1:06pm Handy Haversack: 12/3, Van: isitbandcampfriday.com
	1:06pm Van: ¡gracias!
	1:08pm Hoboken Jack: Clarke, I received the PH email. I hope someone near me will host!
	1:09pm clarke: the missive was from Holsapple's booking agent. in summary: they are looking for booking for home concerts for peter. that would be so much great fun!!!
	1:10pm sphere: hello all
	1:10pm clarke: booking for PH: tinadunn1@yahoo.com
	1:11pm Andrew Hollywood: BC Friday is 12/3. Bandcamp has kindly done that once a month for most of the months of 2020 and 2021. They have not announced any for 2022. Make the December Bandcamp Friday count! It could be that last one for a while.
	1:13pm Van: Andrew - thank you, and I totally agree.
	1:15pm clarke: jack - where might Peter play in hoboken, for a regular gig, these days???
	1:15pm Van: Digging Jeffrey Dean Foster's voice - a bit of Tom Petty with Alex Chilton
	1:16pm clarke: which is the equivalent of: Dwight Twilley, right?
	1:16pm efd: @Van I hear some Dwight Twilley too
	1:16pm efd: @clarke jinx!
	1:16pm sphere: Very very power pop.
	1:16pm tim from washington: Be Good To yourself looks like a really great cause. I'm definitely going send some cash their way. I remember an interview with Doug Evans from the Didjits with Diane Kamikaze where he described having to detox in the psych ward of a hospital because he didn't have insurance to pay for rehab. Seems like a really worthy cause for sure.
	1:16pm clarke: great minds...
	1:16pm Van: Oh wow, yeah - super good call by both of you!
	1:17pm Handy Haversack: Hey, sphere. Wondering: Have you read any Thomas M. Disch?
	1:17pm tim from washington: Did you play Jeffrey Dean last week, efd? This is great!
	1:18pm efd: @tim, I did. Making up for lost time!
	1:18pm sphere: Yes, believe it or not he wrote The Brave Little Toaster and that was pretty good. I admit to avoiding Disch because I have heard he's a real downer.
	1:19pm clarke: dischin' on Disch!!
	1:20pm Fishtown Mike: Wow, this is a great cover! The original is such a pop gem, it's a brave move.
	1:20pm Handy Haversack: I can believe that from the little I've read about him. I saw Miéville cites him as an influence so thought I'd check him out if I ever manage to get to a used bookstore again!
	1:21pm clarke: one good thing about where i landed: Half-Price Books walkable from here - amazing place.
	1:21pm sphere: Disch is much admired by SF authors, so I'd say he's worth a try.
	1:21pm Hoboken Jack: Slim pickings, Clarke. We have a bookstore that has hosted Amy Rigby, Richard Lloyd, etc. The reunited dB's played the Arts & Music Festival here. A few other event spaces but nothing that regularly has shows; Jersey City has become the spot for that.
	1:21pm clarke: (yes, they have records!)
	1:21pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and rekkid lovahs. A Records cover!
	1:22pm Handy Haversack: Insane real estate prices have just about killed off used bookstores in NYC.
	1:22pm clarke: that's so sad, Jack!! it is the times, i suppose.
	1:23pm pwrmnstr: There’s a half-price books in this neck of the woods? I used to work at one in Austin a million years ago. I didn’t know they were in the northeast
	1:23pm clarke: that's so sad, Handy! it is the times, i guess. ha ha.
	1:24pm clarke: i am in texas - and yes - HPB is a great chain!!
	1:24pm Mister Dobalina: Be a dog?
	1:24pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Enjoying todays show from Atlantic City where mobile internet access is pretty lousy. 👋🏼
	1:24pm tim from washington: I think wanting to be a dog is a much more sensible choice than wanting to be your dog.
	1:24pm sphere: In DC's Virginia suburbs, the rent has pushed the used bookstores way out into the netherlands (Reston).
	1:25pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: @tim from washington you’ve never met my dog.
	1:25pm clarke: reston ain't cheap either!!
	1:26pm sphere: @ Clarke - nope, it definitely is not.
	1:26pm clarke: what i am noticing is that there are SO many strip malls with vacancies, these days.
	1:27pm clarke: is it because the owners are holding out and keeping rents high???
	1:27pm Van: whoa, this is a fantastic cover
	1:27pm Mister Dobalina: We got a really nice shelter dog not too long ago, I call him Nibbles & follows you everywhere & is always all up yo business. Couldn't ask for a better woofer!
	1:28pm Hoboken Jack: Yo Jeff!
	1:28pm sphere: One day I went on a Tomorrow Never Knows binge and created a huge playlist of nothing but cover versions. Other good ones: Pink Fairies and Junior Parker.
	1:29pm Van: sphere - that sounds like a great day
	1:30pm sphere: I really wanted Living Colour's version to be good, but alas it was not to be.
	1:30pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Hiya Hoboken Jack!
	1:30pm clarke: nope!!
	1:30pm ?: whats the band called again? x
	1:34pm captain mike: Musicians depressed and addicted? Sign me up
	1:35pm iiibeat: Angelic exterior is our interior . . Visa versa
	1:36pm Mister Dobalina: I never knew that portable dishwashers existed, until recently. Go fig...
	1:37pm sphere: @ Mister Dobalina - That's new to me as well. Thanks!
	1:38pm Ryansterlingvirtue: Thanks! I've been so Annika-deprived lately. I need to see her live again.
	1:38pm Handy Haversack: This album is great.
	1:38pm theWombat: what was that be played during the break that was the "American Woman" riff?
	1:39pm Jay S.: Knocking on Dylan's door.
	1:40pm sphere: I like Anika too.
	1:41pm Mister Dobalina: @sphere.. yeah it's the cutest little thing that sits on your contertop. If it's you and/or one other person it could definitely work. & supposedly you can save water using it as opposed to hand washing.
	1:41pm efd: @TheWombat It's a loop from "Saturday Nite Fever" by The Lordz Of Brooklyn, from 1994 or so
	1:41pm theWombat: Thanks efd!
	1:42pm theWombat: it was quite the throbbing earworm (~):-]
	1:43pm clarke: i believe this to be the EFD 'de-facto theme'
	1:43pm Handy Haversack: efd hasn't played the Trobbing Earworms in a while. They need to put out a new album!
	1:44pm clarke: to be played on the much maligned Turntable One
	1:44pm tim from washington: I wonder if this is a nod to Cannibal Ox's 'Ox Out The Box'. I dig it!
	1:44pm Van: Just found myself making a stank face while listening to the bass on this
	1:44pm sphere: Hey Handy, the Interesting Times Gang take their name from The Culture!
	1:45pm sphere: theculture.fandom.com...
	1:46pm olivia: Grooviin!!
	1:46pm Handy Haversack: Nice, sphere! I have a good friend (and SF buddy) who moved from Kearny, NJ, to Reston, VA, for high school. I'll have to tell him it's where the used bookstores have ended up.
	1:47pm Matt Warwick: We are BOTH groovin' at the lunch table right now
	1:47pm olivia: Wow as if this song didn’t already have me…. Now it’s talkin bout tasty burgers
	1:47pm clarke: i think i live in the Reston of texas. sugar land.
	1:48pm Matt Warwick: Wow this is amazing
	1:48pm Fuzzy: I could go for a Big Kahuna burger about now.
	1:48pm sphere: man this is serious 21st century disco.
	1:49pm herb.nyc: Book stores- a small one opened at 44(?) mulberry st, nyc Me at Union sq now, to volunteer at food scraps of greenmarket
	1:49pm efd: @Matt and @olivia What about Bruce??
	1:49pm herb.nyc: On e12th is HipVegCity(?), and Gothamist liked it
	1:50pm herb.nyc: Above, re non meat burgers
	1:51pm clarke: the sample outweighs the tuneage, tho.
	1:52pm Handy Haversack: Seems rude to shoot the topless dancers with lasers, but what do I know? Never been to Corfu.
	1:53pm Van: Handy - well, if it's Stormtroopers firing the lasers, the dancers are probably safe
	1:53pm Stevel: Dick Hyman. Insert jokes here.
	1:55pm P-90: “insert”?
	1:56pm Mister Dobalina: Well guess it's time to get out the old Nintendo.
	1:56pm steveo: love this robin hatch piece & olivia's interview sorry i'm late but i had to go to the food coop, but the good news is that i heard the best pop song of all time, i feel for you by chaka khan....
	1:56pm Mister Dobalina: Castlevania, anyone?
	1:57pm Handy Haversack: Any WFMU shirts at the co-op, steveo?
	1:57pm steveo: just mine today, Handy... ah written by Prince; i should have remembered that
	1:59pm tim from washington: There's a West Michigan fast food restaurant called the Chicken Coop. It's loads of laughs to call it the Chicken Co-op.
	2:02pm mrdonutsu: If you liked the "The Topless Dancers..." you'll love Dick's "The Minotaur".
	2:04pm Mister Dobalina: More airhorn please!
	2:04pm headlesscolin: yo!
	2:05pm Stevel: So much horn, so little air.
	2:05pm tim from washington: I will rejoin social media if everyone on social media agrees to use an air horn too.
	2:05pm Kat in Chicago: Ah, the distant sounds of airhorns as I retrieve my lunch from the toaster oven
	2:06pm efd: @mrdonutsu I'm familiar!
	2:06pm steveo: our food co-op is also spelled Coop, which I think might be an intentional joke, but 'twas named many years ago i think the new yorker probably spells it coöp did efd say something about chaka khan? i was grabbing my soup. i was probably just hallucinating.
	2:07pm tim from washington: I've been to the Lincoln Park Zoo!
	2:08pm Mike Sin: Hi Evan - enjoying this show and this Trappers Cabin. Sortsa reminds me a bit of Spooky Tooth.
	2:10pm clarke: perfect posture.
	2:10pm Aitch: Howdy live for a change efd
	2:11pm clarke: Don't Look Back.
	2:12pm steveo: the New Yorker has spelled it Co-op or Co-Op several times, which is uncharacteristically incorrect.
	2:12pm Handy Haversack: And uncharacteristically unfustian.
	2:15pm steveo: mispelling (ha) business names is definitely unpretentious
	2:16pm sphere: The Umbrellas is a great band name. Has anyone else ever used it?
	2:17pm Mike Sin: This Umbrellas' track has been getting a lot of airplay on WFMU, and every time I hear it, I like it that much more!
	2:17pm Carmichael: There is also The Raincoats.
	2:17pm Van: Umbrellas remind me of Brian Jonestown Massacre if with early 70s E Street Band mixed in there somehow, too
	2:18pm clarke: hey, Mike Sin!! any sub=time upcoming??
	2:18pm drr: TIL about countertop dishwashers.
	2:19pm clarke: rhodie!!!!
	2:19pm Mike Sin: @Van -- re: Umbrellas -- I hear a mix-up of Brian Jonestown Massacre and Robyn Hitchcock.
	2:19pm drr: ay clarke
	2:19pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oh wow, I love this overlord song! Thanks so much for playing this!
	2:19pm clarke: Rhodie - The Movie!!
	2:19pm Mike Sin: Hi there Clarke!
	2:20pm clarke: you have any shows in the near future??
	2:21pm drr: My girlfriend is pretty flawless and incredible, I live in a house that she basically built, but...she doesn't hold with dishwashers. Grew up without one and never lived anywhere with one.
	2:21pm clarke: dishwashers are decent storage areas.
	2:22pm Handy Haversack: Same here, drr.
	2:22pm drr: I had sort of dreamed of a countertop dishwasher but never considered it was a real possibility.
	2:23pm Mister Dobalina: Oh, it's very real.
	2:23pm drr: @clarke: Yes I do, in two days! The Stacks @ Sidney's Saloon, St. Bernard Avenue N.O., LA
	2:23pm efd: The house I grew up in in the late '60s/'70s had a countertop or roll-out dishwasher. Had to manually hook it up to the sink when you used it.
	2:23pm drr: (so, Friday night.)
	2:24pm clarke: what's yer new combo's name, dave??
	2:24pm clarke: same here, EFD
	2:24pm Mister Dobalina: Downside side is that they are not cheap, but what dishwasher is. There are a couple for sale in Jersey City craigslist.
	2:25pm drr: This one is The Stacks (again). Like a handful of other bands. It's hard to believe but at one brief point there were three bands in this town with that name. Which is weird, because it's not a very good name.
	2:26pm clarke: same as the old one!!
	2:27pm clarke: and have a good show at Sidney's!!!
	2:29pm clarke: whatcha playin' for guitar these days, drr??
	2:31pm headlesscolin: i’m partial to the constant flow of novelty, ditched the familiarity altogether
	2:31pm Carmichael: Bellini! He only eats fish.
	2:31pm drr: Stratocaster. Little Ampeg Jet II 1x10 amp, it's the best.
	2:31pm giselle: woo hoo, Mouth Congress!
	2:32pm clarke: indeed, sir!!
	2:32pm Carmichael: I use a classic Fender Princeton for my strat.
	2:33pm drr: Carmichael: I would too if I could find/afford one.
	2:34pm clarke: princetons rule.
	2:34pm clarke: i have a re-ish one that is almost too much (hot-rodded).
	2:34pm Van: drr: those ampegs are awesome, and a princeton with a strat is like pb&j
	2:36pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): American Standard Tele into a Fender Twin Reverb (or sometimes a Pignose)
	2:36pm drr: Van: I like it a lot, and I got it for all of $150 (clarke: at Jimmy Glickman's store). It's a countertop amp.
	2:37pm clarke: once, i was playing thru oxford and that little music store just off the Square had this old princeton and the price tag was $250!! an amount that i could not afford at the time, sadly.
	2:37pm Carmichael: Basically a Champ with reverb.
	2:37pm Van: drr: That's a steal, super useful amp
	2:37pm clarke: RIP Glickman - hey buddy!!
	2:40pm steveo: loving that creatively tuned guitar
	2:40pm drr: Yeah, he's much missed. He knew what everybody wanted, and what everybody wanted to get rid of. A connector.
	2:41pm clarke: hey buddy!!
	2:42pm clarke: have you been to Boil - the crawfish place that replaced LMS??
	2:43pm clarke: i had been meaning to get there - just to see the old building (used to have a rehearsal space in the back of it, at one time), but it looks so tourist-y.
	2:43pm drr: no, I think it would make me too sad, like Going to Rusty Nail where the Mermaid was.
	2:44pm Handy Haversack: If you crank up a countertop amp enough, will it wash dishes that are placed in front of it?
	2:44pm drr: Also, I think it closed.
	2:44pm clarke: THAT is truly sad sad sad. THOSE were the dayz, maaan!!
	2:45pm clarke: sonic cleansing, handy!!
	2:45pm steveo: only if the source is a maxell tape
	2:46pm drr: Just dump your dishes in the bass drum and rock.
	2:46pm clarke: if you put Turntable #1 thru that amp it will clean the lasagna dish!!
	2:49pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): If you put my amp on the countertop it won't clean your dishes but you won't care as you'll be having to deal with your newly-acquired hernia.
	2:50pm clarke: for those who wanna know what The Mermaid Lounge was -- it was the most ideal rock venue, bar, patio, undertaker's parlour, rooming house EVER!!! great booking agents/owners etc. in the heart of the warehouse district in nola.
	2:50pm Paulie B: XR = efd's like > efd's plays
	2:51pm clarke: boffo show, here, mate!!! THANKS EFD!!
	2:52pm Paulie B: Both Cold Beat and XR have former members of Grass Widow if I'm not mistaken.
	2:53pm Van: WoodsOfNH - Twin?
	2:53pm clarke: spot ON, kiddo!!!
	2:54pm efd: @Paulie B I believe you're correct!
	2:54pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Van Yeah. Twin reverb.
	2:54pm Handy Haversack: That waiter in Paris ... what was his name ... ? JEAN-LUC! Thanks for the memories and all the great tunage, efd! Another fantastic show. Later on, funkenheimers!
	2:55pm clarke: avoid scratches - vinyl and kittie!!
	2:55pm Van: @WoodsOfNH Had one, still have the back issues.
	2:56pm vinylmonkee: Great show! Thnx!
	2:56pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Van Heh, yep!

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from November 17, 2021

View efd's profile

Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

<-- Previous playlist | Back to The Evan "Funk" Davies Show playlists | Next playlist -->

Upcoming events:

Wed. Dec 4th, Noon - 3pm: Freaky Wilderness (More info...)
Brooklyn’s Freaky Wilderness includes members of Space Merchants, whose 2018 album landed in EFD’s top 10 of that year. They bring their heavy, fuzzy sound to the WFMU airwaves just days before the release of their debut album Immeasurable Heaven. They’ll preview the album in this live set ahead of the album release show on Thursday Dec. 12 at Main Drag in Brooklyn.
Wed. Dec 11th, Noon - 3pm: Manager (More info...)
Manager is a three-piece band that’s based right here in Jersey City. They recently released a new EP, HOT-LINE (Texacobra), which showcases their hard-edged percolating indie sound that may remind the listener of Echo & The Bunnymen or Yo La Tengo. Tune in to this live session and hear for yourself!
Wed. Dec 25th, Noon - 3pm: The 18th Annual Holiday Music Funktacular! (More info...)
It’s the 18th year of the Evan “Funk” Davies Show Holiday Music Funktacular, and this year — for the first time ever — it will air on actual Christmas Day! Tune in for three hours of Christmas music that you won’t already be sick of hearing: old and new seasonal rock, punk, dance, glam, and power pop favorites. Even your family might enjoy it!

November 17, 2021: More VA-MD record store finds! More new music!

A.M.s so I can catch MaryWing in this timeslot - so just saw this morning you played the title track off my friend Glenn Hicks' band's new album St. Astronaut last week ! Glenn condescended to play with us here in smalltown NewHampshuh in a basement band - but had to go back to Bloomington - & he's got his great band Griffy out there : griffy.bandcamp.com... I'm real proud of his talents & I appreciate you featuring that.
	12:08pm Figgsrock: Wow, that Soul Train track was...something.
	12:10pm Mister Dobalina: eFd, is where it's at !
	12:11pm Handy Haversack: I finally realized what bothers me about being back at the office -- there's no boombox in the bathroom here tuned to WFMU! How does this place survive?!
	12:12pm Yes: hello EFD, fam. dig the bill and taffy
	12:12pm Chris Crash: Good morning, Mr. Funk!
	12:15pm chris_in_space: @Handy Haversack I've put WFMU on our studio speakers at work in the past. Every time I do I realize how weird I really am. Everything seems normal at home, but with other people around? Context is everything.
	12:16pm herb.nyc: How joyous, to hear Evan in the daylight hours! Has the ticket giveaway returned? At 2pm? “Boots are made for walking”- friend and I saw Nancy Sinatra play at maxwells! Aside- can ya play The Unbrellas, Evan? Friend sez they have a Dec 3 nyc show.
	12:20pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Daaang, I'm right back in high school with the Boston tune.
	12:20pm Handy Haversack: Ha, chris_in_space, totally. I saw a friend I hadn't seen in a while and was playing some new music I'd picked up. "Oh, and I found this on a show called Strength Through Failure --" "Please turn this off."
	12:21pm Hoboken Jack: Hi EFD, Handy, remote Bagpipe, all!

	12:22pm karlward: I put the important stuff all the way at the back of this list BECAUSE they are important
	12:22pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack, clarke!
	12:22pm chris_in_space: @Handy how did you know I was thinking of Fabs too?
	12:22pm Figgsrock: Brad Delp's passing was one of the saddest stories I ever wrote for my day job.

	12:25pm clarke: efd - did you live in c'ville at one time??
	12:25pm morphe': Nation's Business = current events? Most unusual my dear Watson...
	12:25pm worker: this is all going to be replaced by the blockchain
	12:26pm clarke: and, Sidetracks was an off-shoot of Tracks??
	12:26pm karlward: When the blockchain is used for everything in the world, Borges will have been proven right
	12:26pm Stevel: "Frank. You screwed up the production task I assigned you. Sit down and listen to this record."
	12:26pm worker: also companies are going to be replaced by DAOs. but not WFMU. wfmu is anti-algorithmic.
	12:26pm Chris Crash: This card method was how Frank Casshern ran the Mets in the 80s
	12:26pm efd: @clarke nope, was there for the first time a couple weeks ago
	12:27pm PaulRobeson1920: Hi Hi Hi ya’ll! Hi EFD! Sounding goood!!! Go goo gaa gaa!
	12:27pm clarke: ah. nice place, huh??
	12:27pm SpamPrince: Finally - some much-needed aid organizing my priorities! Thx EFD.
	12:27pm Chris Crash: *Frank Cashen LMAO not me getting the guy who ran the Mets confused with an obscure anime 🤣🤣🤣
	12:28pm clarke: i have just played thru there - back in 'the day' but gorgeous area!!
	12:28pm Hoboken Jack: SteveL!
	12:29pm Kat in Chicago: Checking in after a mercifully brief meeting, hi Funksters

	12:29pm clarke: hey jack!! whats the new in h'boken??
	12:30pm efd: @clarke without wanting to out you, were you at one time in bands with the initials DRR and UY?
	12:31pm clarke: was, among others. not so proud of the DRR part.
	12:32pm clarke: in my own defense - it was a different band when i was in it
	12:33pm clarke: man, Frederick MD is pretty dang cool, too!!
	12:33pm karlward: THE TRAIN
	12:34pm karlward: I will not miss the Train
	12:35pm Stevel: Test pressings sound like a serious rabbit hole.
	12:38pm Hoboken Jack: SteveL, little Yoo-Hoo is a sweetie and a gentleman! Clarke, Hoboken highlight is 4-star Admiral McRaven doing a storytime at the library with his new picture book! Was on CBS this morning.
	12:39pm clarke: celeb explosion!!!
	12:39pm Ryansterlingvirtue: yay pulp

	12:42pm Jack McGuire: I remember listening to Ken Katkin on PRB a million years ago. Thanks for sharin'.
	12:42pm clarke: Plan 9 Records originated in c'ville. am guess their richmond store is all that's left?
	12:43pm clarke: -guessing
	12:43pm efd: @clarke I didn't make the connection until I saw your full name in my list of pledgers after the Hellraiser (thanks for pledging, btw!)
	12:44pm clarke: OF COURSE, duuuude!!!!!
	12:44pm efd: @clarke C'ville plan 9 is still there, but mostly CDs and new vinyl, not much used vinyl
	12:44pm clarke: ah. too bad - used to be a fantastic store!!
	12:45pm clarke: i envy that trip you just went on!!!
	12:48pm Handy Haversack: Ha, the fact that efd is playing stuff I picked up on the last Bandcamp Friday only shows where I get my Bandcamp wishlist from!
	12:49pm clarke: on both yer sleeves, handy!!
	12:49pm Van: Howdy everyone! Just tuning in, I missed Eyelids, been digging them lately.
	12:50pm clarke: are u covered in kittens, today, btw??
	12:50pm tim from washington: @Handy - are you really efd using an alias?
	12:50pm Handy Haversack: At the office today, clarke -- and missing Goblin and Bugbear very much!
	12:51pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): What's an office?
	12:51pm clarke: i gave at the office!!
	12:52pm clarke: these are some BUENO tunes!!!
	12:53pm Handy Haversack: I think efd could do a lot better, tim! Woods, it's where you go to let your recent kitten scratches scab over so you can get more kitten scratches when you get home.
	12:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, efd and funk folk.
	12:54pm Hoboken Jack: So the IC would be another Clarke band. Nice! Hey HP Ken!
	12:55pm clarke: bongo joe - WORKIN' IT!!!
	12:56pm clarke: yes, the casuals was one of my favorite times
	12:58pm Andrew Hollywood: 🎧🎧🎧
	12:59pm Various Julius: oh boy
	12:59pm efd: HAHA!
	12:59pm efd: I love it.
	1:00pm Figgsrock: Wow, a pre-recorded top of the hour ID.
	1:00pm efd: I'm bigtiming the daytime
	1:01pm Figgsrock: HA! What's next EFD, a sweeper in between songs?
	1:01pm clarke: BIGTIME!!
	1:02pm Roberto: This song is relatable, especially the part about stepping in kitty litter.
	1:02pm Ed: Love the Airport 77s. They're like the best band of the late 70s/early eighties who never existed then!
	1:03pm clarke: any youse guys just get that misive from Peter Holsapple??
	1:03pm clarke: -missive
	1:03pm tim from washington: Oooh, Wind-Ups were right up my alley. I like a band that sounds like brilliant dunderheads or dunderheaded geniuses.
	1:03pm Ed: Running to bandcamp to get the single now!
	1:05pm Various Julius: Thanks for the spin! No worries about the NYC gig, which was pretty good time though
	1:05pm Van: Need to add that Airport 77s to my bandcamp wishlist (and buy it on the next Bandcamp Friday)... anyone know when the next BC Friday is?
	1:06pm Handy Haversack: 12/3, Van: isitbandcampfriday.com
	1:06pm Van: ¡gracias!
	1:08pm Hoboken Jack: Clarke, I received the PH email. I hope someone near me will host!
	1:09pm clarke: the missive was from Holsapple's booking agent. in summary: they are looking for booking for home concerts for peter. that would be so much great fun!!!
	1:10pm sphere: hello all
	1:10pm clarke: booking for PH: tinadunn1@yahoo.com
	1:11pm Andrew Hollywood: BC Friday is 12/3. Bandcamp has kindly done that once a month for most of the months of 2020 and 2021. They have not announced any for 2022. Make the December Bandcamp Friday count! It could be that last one for a while.
	1:13pm Van: Andrew - thank you, and I totally agree.
	1:15pm clarke: jack - where might Peter play in hoboken, for a regular gig, these days???
	1:15pm Van: Digging Jeffrey Dean Foster's voice - a bit of Tom Petty with Alex Chilton
	1:16pm clarke: which is the equivalent of: Dwight Twilley, right?
	1:16pm efd: @Van I hear some Dwight Twilley too
	1:16pm efd: @clarke jinx!
	1:16pm sphere: Very very power pop.
	1:16pm tim from washington: Be Good To yourself looks like a really great cause. I'm definitely going send some cash their way. I remember an interview with Doug Evans from the Didjits with Diane Kamikaze where he described having to detox in the psych ward of a hospital because he didn't have insurance to pay for rehab. Seems like a really worthy cause for sure.
	1:16pm clarke: great minds...
	1:16pm Van: Oh wow, yeah - super good call by both of you!
	1:17pm Handy Haversack: Hey, sphere. Wondering: Have you read any Thomas M. Disch?
	1:17pm tim from washington: Did you play Jeffrey Dean last week, efd? This is great!
	1:18pm efd: @tim, I did. Making up for lost time!
	1:18pm sphere: Yes, believe it or not he wrote The Brave Little Toaster and that was pretty good. I admit to avoiding Disch because I have heard he's a real downer.
	1:19pm clarke: dischin' on Disch!!
	1:20pm Fishtown Mike: Wow, this is a great cover! The original is such a pop gem, it's a brave move.
	1:20pm Handy Haversack: I can believe that from the little I've read about him. I saw Miéville cites him as an influence so thought I'd check him out if I ever manage to get to a used bookstore again!
	1:21pm clarke: one good thing about where i landed: Half-Price Books walkable from here - amazing place.
	1:21pm sphere: Disch is much admired by SF authors, so I'd say he's worth a try.
	1:21pm Hoboken Jack: Slim pickings, Clarke. We have a bookstore that has hosted Amy Rigby, Richard Lloyd, etc. The reunited dB's played the Arts & Music Festival here. A few other event spaces but nothing that regularly has shows; Jersey City has become the spot for that.
	1:21pm clarke: (yes, they have records!)
	1:21pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and rekkid lovahs. A Records cover!
	1:22pm Handy Haversack: Insane real estate prices have just about killed off used bookstores in NYC.
	1:22pm clarke: that's so sad, Jack!! it is the times, i suppose.
	1:23pm pwrmnstr: There’s a half-price books in this neck of the woods? I used to work at one in Austin a million years ago. I didn’t know they were in the northeast
	1:23pm clarke: that's so sad, Handy! it is the times, i guess. ha ha.
	1:24pm clarke: i am in texas - and yes - HPB is a great chain!!
	1:24pm Mister Dobalina: Be a dog?
	1:24pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Enjoying todays show from Atlantic City where mobile internet access is pretty lousy. 👋🏼
	1:24pm tim from washington: I think wanting to be a dog is a much more sensible choice than wanting to be your dog.
	1:24pm sphere: In DC's Virginia suburbs, the rent has pushed the used bookstores way out into the netherlands (Reston).
	1:25pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: @tim from washington you’ve never met my dog.
	1:25pm clarke: reston ain't cheap either!!
	1:26pm sphere: @ Clarke - nope, it definitely is not.
	1:26pm clarke: what i am noticing is that there are SO many strip malls with vacancies, these days.
	1:27pm clarke: is it because the owners are holding out and keeping rents high???
	1:27pm Van: whoa, this is a fantastic cover
	1:27pm Mister Dobalina: We got a really nice shelter dog not too long ago, I call him Nibbles & follows you everywhere & is always all up yo business. Couldn't ask for a better woofer!
	1:28pm Hoboken Jack: Yo Jeff!
	1:28pm sphere: One day I went on a Tomorrow Never Knows binge and created a huge playlist of nothing but cover versions. Other good ones: Pink Fairies and Junior Parker.
	1:29pm Van: sphere - that sounds like a great day
	1:30pm sphere: I really wanted Living Colour's version to be good, but alas it was not to be.
	1:30pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: Hiya Hoboken Jack!
	1:30pm clarke: nope!!
	1:30pm ?: whats the band called again? x
	1:34pm captain mike: Musicians depressed and addicted? Sign me up
	1:35pm iiibeat: Angelic exterior is our interior . . Visa versa
	1:36pm Mister Dobalina: I never knew that portable dishwashers existed, until recently. Go fig...
	1:37pm sphere: @ Mister Dobalina - That's new to me as well. Thanks!
	1:38pm Ryansterlingvirtue: Thanks! I've been so Annika-deprived lately. I need to see her live again.
	1:38pm Handy Haversack: This album is great.
	1:38pm theWombat: what was that be played during the break that was the "American Woman" riff?
	1:39pm Jay S.: Knocking on Dylan's door.
	1:40pm sphere: I like Anika too.
	1:41pm Mister Dobalina: @sphere.. yeah it's the cutest little thing that sits on your contertop. If it's you and/or one other person it could definitely work. & supposedly you can save water using it as opposed to hand washing.
	1:41pm efd: @TheWombat It's a loop from "Saturday Nite Fever" by The Lordz Of Brooklyn, from 1994 or so
	1:41pm theWombat: Thanks efd!
	1:42pm theWombat: it was quite the throbbing earworm (~):-]
	1:43pm clarke: i believe this to be the EFD 'de-facto theme'
	1:43pm Handy Haversack: efd hasn't played the Trobbing Earworms in a while. They need to put out a new album!
	1:44pm clarke: to be played on the much maligned Turntable One
	1:44pm tim from washington: I wonder if this is a nod to Cannibal Ox's 'Ox Out The Box'. I dig it!
	1:44pm Van: Just found myself making a stank face while listening to the bass on this
	1:44pm sphere: Hey Handy, the Interesting Times Gang take their name from The Culture!
	1:45pm sphere: theculture.fandom.com...
	1:46pm olivia: Grooviin!!
	1:46pm Handy Haversack: Nice, sphere! I have a good friend (and SF buddy) who moved from Kearny, NJ, to Reston, VA, for high school. I'll have to tell him it's where the used bookstores have ended up.
	1:47pm Matt Warwick: We are BOTH groovin' at the lunch table right now
	1:47pm olivia: Wow as if this song didn’t already have me…. Now it’s talkin bout tasty burgers
	1:47pm clarke: i think i live in the Reston of texas. sugar land.
	1:48pm Matt Warwick: Wow this is amazing
	1:48pm Fuzzy: I could go for a Big Kahuna burger about now.
	1:48pm sphere: man this is serious 21st century disco.
	1:49pm herb.nyc: Book stores- a small one opened at 44(?) mulberry st, nyc Me at Union sq now, to volunteer at food scraps of greenmarket
	1:49pm efd: @Matt and @olivia What about Bruce??
	1:49pm herb.nyc: On e12th is HipVegCity(?), and Gothamist liked it
	1:50pm herb.nyc: Above, re non meat burgers
	1:51pm clarke: the sample outweighs the tuneage, tho.
	1:52pm Handy Haversack: Seems rude to shoot the topless dancers with lasers, but what do I know? Never been to Corfu.
	1:53pm Van: Handy - well, if it's Stormtroopers firing the lasers, the dancers are probably safe
	1:53pm Stevel: Dick Hyman. Insert jokes here.
	1:55pm P-90: “insert”?
	1:56pm Mister Dobalina: Well guess it's time to get out the old Nintendo.
	1:56pm steveo: love this robin hatch piece & olivia's interview sorry i'm late but i had to go to the food coop, but the good news is that i heard the best pop song of all time, i feel for you by chaka khan....
	1:56pm Mister Dobalina: Castlevania, anyone?
	1:57pm Handy Haversack: Any WFMU shirts at the co-op, steveo?
	1:57pm steveo: just mine today, Handy... ah written by Prince; i should have remembered that
	1:59pm tim from washington: There's a West Michigan fast food restaurant called the Chicken Coop. It's loads of laughs to call it the Chicken Co-op.
	2:02pm mrdonutsu: If you liked the "The Topless Dancers..." you'll love Dick's "The Minotaur".
	2:04pm Mister Dobalina: More airhorn please!
	2:04pm headlesscolin: yo!
	2:05pm Stevel: So much horn, so little air.
	2:05pm tim from washington: I will rejoin social media if everyone on social media agrees to use an air horn too.
	2:05pm Kat in Chicago: Ah, the distant sounds of airhorns as I retrieve my lunch from the toaster oven
	2:06pm efd: @mrdonutsu I'm familiar!
	2:06pm steveo: our food co-op is also spelled Coop, which I think might be an intentional joke, but 'twas named many years ago i think the new yorker probably spells it coöp did efd say something about chaka khan? i was grabbing my soup. i was probably just hallucinating.
	2:07pm tim from washington: I've been to the Lincoln Park Zoo!
	2:08pm Mike Sin: Hi Evan - enjoying this show and this Trappers Cabin. Sortsa reminds me a bit of Spooky Tooth.
	2:10pm clarke: perfect posture.
	2:10pm Aitch: Howdy live for a change efd
	2:11pm clarke: Don't Look Back.
	2:12pm steveo: the New Yorker has spelled it Co-op or Co-Op several times, which is uncharacteristically incorrect.
	2:12pm Handy Haversack: And uncharacteristically unfustian.
	2:15pm steveo: mispelling (ha) business names is definitely unpretentious
	2:16pm sphere: The Umbrellas is a great band name. Has anyone else ever used it?
	2:17pm Mike Sin: This Umbrellas' track has been getting a lot of airplay on WFMU, and every time I hear it, I like it that much more!
	2:17pm Carmichael: There is also The Raincoats.
	2:17pm Van: Umbrellas remind me of Brian Jonestown Massacre if with early 70s E Street Band mixed in there somehow, too
	2:18pm clarke: hey, Mike Sin!! any sub=time upcoming??
	2:18pm drr: TIL about countertop dishwashers.
	2:19pm clarke: rhodie!!!!
	2:19pm Mike Sin: @Van -- re: Umbrellas -- I hear a mix-up of Brian Jonestown Massacre and Robyn Hitchcock.
	2:19pm drr: ay clarke
	2:19pm Hopey Sockmonkey: Oh wow, I love this overlord song! Thanks so much for playing this!
	2:19pm clarke: Rhodie - The Movie!!
	2:19pm Mike Sin: Hi there Clarke!
	2:20pm clarke: you have any shows in the near future??
	2:21pm drr: My girlfriend is pretty flawless and incredible, I live in a house that she basically built, but...she doesn't hold with dishwashers. Grew up without one and never lived anywhere with one.
	2:21pm clarke: dishwashers are decent storage areas.
	2:22pm Handy Haversack: Same here, drr.
	2:22pm drr: I had sort of dreamed of a countertop dishwasher but never considered it was a real possibility.
	2:23pm Mister Dobalina: Oh, it's very real.
	2:23pm drr: @clarke: Yes I do, in two days! The Stacks @ Sidney's Saloon, St. Bernard Avenue N.O., LA
	2:23pm efd: The house I grew up in in the late '60s/'70s had a countertop or roll-out dishwasher. Had to manually hook it up to the sink when you used it.
	2:23pm drr: (so, Friday night.)
	2:24pm clarke: what's yer new combo's name, dave??
	2:24pm clarke: same here, EFD
	2:24pm Mister Dobalina: Downside side is that they are not cheap, but what dishwasher is. There are a couple for sale in Jersey City craigslist.
	2:25pm drr: This one is The Stacks (again). Like a handful of other bands. It's hard to believe but at one brief point there were three bands in this town with that name. Which is weird, because it's not a very good name.
	2:26pm clarke: same as the old one!!
	2:27pm clarke: and have a good show at Sidney's!!!
	2:29pm clarke: whatcha playin' for guitar these days, drr??
	2:31pm headlesscolin: i’m partial to the constant flow of novelty, ditched the familiarity altogether
	2:31pm Carmichael: Bellini! He only eats fish.
	2:31pm drr: Stratocaster. Little Ampeg Jet II 1x10 amp, it's the best.
	2:31pm giselle: woo hoo, Mouth Congress!
	2:32pm clarke: indeed, sir!!
	2:32pm Carmichael: I use a classic Fender Princeton for my strat.
	2:33pm drr: Carmichael: I would too if I could find/afford one.
	2:34pm clarke: princetons rule.
	2:34pm clarke: i have a re-ish one that is almost too much (hot-rodded).
	2:34pm Van: drr: those ampegs are awesome, and a princeton with a strat is like pb&j
	2:36pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): American Standard Tele into a Fender Twin Reverb (or sometimes a Pignose)
	2:36pm drr: Van: I like it a lot, and I got it for all of $150 (clarke: at Jimmy Glickman's store). It's a countertop amp.
	2:37pm clarke: once, i was playing thru oxford and that little music store just off the Square had this old princeton and the price tag was $250!! an amount that i could not afford at the time, sadly.
	2:37pm Carmichael: Basically a Champ with reverb.
	2:37pm Van: drr: That's a steal, super useful amp
	2:37pm clarke: RIP Glickman - hey buddy!!
	2:40pm steveo: loving that creatively tuned guitar
	2:40pm drr: Yeah, he's much missed. He knew what everybody wanted, and what everybody wanted to get rid of. A connector.
	2:41pm clarke: hey buddy!!
	2:42pm clarke: have you been to Boil - the crawfish place that replaced LMS??
	2:43pm clarke: i had been meaning to get there - just to see the old building (used to have a rehearsal space in the back of it, at one time), but it looks so tourist-y.
	2:43pm drr: no, I think it would make me too sad, like Going to Rusty Nail where the Mermaid was.
	2:44pm Handy Haversack: If you crank up a countertop amp enough, will it wash dishes that are placed in front of it?
	2:44pm drr: Also, I think it closed.
	2:44pm clarke: THAT is truly sad sad sad. THOSE were the dayz, maaan!!
	2:45pm clarke: sonic cleansing, handy!!
	2:45pm steveo: only if the source is a maxell tape
	2:46pm drr: Just dump your dishes in the bass drum and rock.
	2:46pm clarke: if you put Turntable #1 thru that amp it will clean the lasagna dish!!
	2:49pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): If you put my amp on the countertop it won't clean your dishes but you won't care as you'll be having to deal with your newly-acquired hernia.
	2:50pm clarke: for those who wanna know what The Mermaid Lounge was -- it was the most ideal rock venue, bar, patio, undertaker's parlour, rooming house EVER!!! great booking agents/owners etc. in the heart of the warehouse district in nola.
	2:50pm Paulie B: XR = efd's like > efd's plays
	2:51pm clarke: boffo show, here, mate!!! THANKS EFD!!
	2:52pm Paulie B: Both Cold Beat and XR have former members of Grass Widow if I'm not mistaken.
	2:53pm Van: WoodsOfNH - Twin?
	2:53pm clarke: spot ON, kiddo!!!
	2:54pm efd: @Paulie B I believe you're correct!
	2:54pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Van Yeah. Twin reverb.
	2:54pm Handy Haversack: That waiter in Paris ... what was his name ... ? JEAN-LUC! Thanks for the memories and all the great tunage, efd! Another fantastic show. Later on, funkenheimers!
	2:55pm clarke: avoid scratches - vinyl and kittie!!
	2:55pm Van: @WoodsOfNH Had one, still have the back issues.
	2:56pm vinylmonkee: Great show! Thnx!
	2:56pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Van Heh, yep!
	2:56pm clarke: them thangs'll take yer head off!!
	2:56pm tim from washington: Thanks, efd!
	2:57pm Glistener MW: !!! Mouth Congress! be still, my heart. Thanks, EFD!!!
