	12:00pm Handy Haversack: Hi, efd, everyone.
	12:00pm efd: SCHLOSS!
	12:00pm prof.fuzz: EFD!
	12:00pm efd: (hi everyone!)
	12:01pm LesleyK: Hey there efd and all
	12:01pm brycepunk1: Woo! EFD, everyone, good afternoon :)
	12:01pm vinylmonkee: Great opener! Good morning/afternoon
	12:01pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): SCHLOSS!!! (Never heard of 'em but it's fun to say)
	12:02pm full metal monkey: Hello EFD and everyone
	12:03pm tim from washington: Hey efd and crew! Schloss's bassist sounds like he's got a mustache bigger than a bavarian pretzel.
	12:04pm efd: surprisingly, Schloss are mustache-free! (At least they were when the back cover photo was taken)
	12:04pm prof.fuzz: hey full metal monkey! how are ya? handy? tim?
	12:04pm morphe': Thought it was the Ozark Mountain Daredevils???
	12:04pm love2laf: Allo EFD & all! What a great start to the afternoon already.
	12:05pm Handy Haversack: efd, looks like we have to miss the Lulu Lewis show that K8 booked at Mama Tried tonight, if you can believe it. She has tested positive, so we're locking down (and canceling our first trip out of town since last fall). It's a shitshow. Unhappy faces abound.
	12:06pm efd: @Handy oh that's such a bummer! Sorry to hear that, hope you're able to avoid it yourself and that K8 has a mild case.
	12:06pm full metal monkey: @Prof.fuzz. Doing great how are you? Are you resting up to go back out on the road?
	12:07pm full metal monkey: @Handy. Sorry to hear man.
	12:07pm drr: hello "Funk" & Co. from N.O. It's....hot. Hey handy, sorry about your re-lockdown.
	12:08pm karlward: Handy and K8, sorry to hear that! Feel better K8!
	12:08pm prof.fuzz: @FMM: van is back in the shop today getting ready for a roadtrip to Beaumont and NOLA this weekend.
	12:08pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, efd, fmm, karlward. Yeah, it's vacation in Bummer City.
	12:10pm full metal monkey: @prof.fuzz. Sounds like fun. I know a reall cool place for cheap home cooked food in New Orleans. Called Verti Marte on Royal street
	12:10pm courtneynoir: Child Bride: The Doug Hutchison Story
	12:10pm tim from washington: Damn, sorry to hear about the vacation cancellation too, Handy! I hope you can make it up.
	12:10pm prof.fuzz: Thanks FMM. Filed away for weekend reference!
	12:11pm James in ATL: Cool record store finds! Thanks EFD!
	12:11pm tim from washington: The interview next week sounds super cool, efd.
	12:11pm Daybreak is Free!: Handy, I am very sorry to hear that the Covid beast has landed again. Is this the fourth or fifth time it’s crashed into your house? At least neither you or Kate has been captured, dragged into a van and been surgically modified to become a child and then made someone’s child bride. Just trying to find the brighter side here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
	12:12pm love2laf: Handy I hope you and K8 fare well, so sorry your anticipated outing had to be cancelled.
	12:12pm full metal monkey: @prof.fuzz. Yeah look it up. It’s a small place looks like any normal corner store. However, in the back they have a take out hot food area. So F’en good and cheap.
	12:12pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Greetings from a busy workday to EFD, fellow Funkies.
	12:14pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH OH NO I am so sorry RE K8, the show, vacation, etc. COVID sucks. Have you tested positive yet also? Even if K8 is asymptomatic, drinking tons of water is KEY. Also, before either of you do Paxlovid, check the counter-indicated medicines from the official FDA site, NOT the manufacturer site -- it's huge. I couldn't take it because it would have meant quitting one of my essential meds 48 hours before even taking the dose, and then being off of it for two WEEKS afterwards. Feel better and best of luck, and I am so sorry the bug bit you.
	12:16pm tim from washington: The Kgon album is a radio station produced record?
	12:16pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH handy link to NIH site. As you can see, the interactions list is HUGE. In my case, it could have caused respiratory failure and death. AND the stupid "tele-doc" didn't even ask what meds I was on. www.covid19treatmentguidelines.nih.gov...
	12:18pm efd: correct, @tim from washington
	12:19pm drr: thanks for that link, 3M
	12:19pm prof.fuzz: hi DRR!
	12:19pm luka: that Legend was smokin. hi, all.
	12:19pm nycmusicnerd: Is this the same Ron Dante that did a lot of work with Barry Manilow in the 70s?
	12:20pm Alvy Singer: Andy Kim co-wrote Let Me Bring You Up.
	12:21pm Lixiviated Life: still here
	12:21pm drr: greetings, professor!
	12:21pm efd: @Alvy as noted on the playlist! :) @nymusicnerd yep.
	12:23pm Alvy Singer: @EFD..Wasn't Ron Dante the lead singer/vocalist of The Archies?
	12:24pm efd: also sounded ok at 33, honestly
	12:24pm drr: Even if this is the wrong speed, it's the right speed.
	12:25pm prof.fuzz: Uh, yeah, 33 1/3 had a solid groove going on...
	12:25pm ifeelfatnsassy: Gotta run out for a meeting but I will definitely be checking out the PE live set in archives...
	12:25pm efd: @Alvy he was definitely involved, not sure if he was the singer on all tracks. I think Andy Kim also sang some of those Archies songs.
	12:26pm efd: @drr Agree!
	12:26pm efd: see ya @ifeelfatnsassy
	12:29pm efd: @prof I'd play an instrumental version of this at 33 for sure!
	12:29pm Eli: Ron Dante of The Archies and The Cufflinks
	12:29pm Mike From Brooklyn: Hello EFD & fellow listeners! Hey Handy Haversack, prof.fuzz, LesleyK!
	12:29pm Mike From Brooklyn: @Handy Haversack - sorry to hear about K8 and your plans. Major bummer!
	12:30pm paddy in matawan: autotune whistle?
	12:33pm efd: @paddy I don't think anyone knew what autotune was in 1981.
	12:34pm prof.fuzz: Hey Mike! Hope you're havin' a good one!
	12:34pm tim from washington: I didn't know Jimmy Destri did a solo record. Sounded good!
	12:34pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mike. Thanks, all. Threemoons, not even sure what Paxlovid is, so I don't think we'll be using it.
	12:35pm LesleyK: Yeah sorry to hear Handy. Get better fast K8!!
	12:35pm Kat in Chicago: Ooh I like mesmerizing captivating live sets
	12:37pm Frank Zaatar: Michael Kamen started with the New York Rock and Roll Ensemble and went on to do a lot of film scores.
	12:38pm Rich in Washington: One of the owners of Crossroads Records occasionally subs for Tony Coulter.
	12:38pm Kat in Chicago: Rats! Just read the bad news, Handy. Sending recovery vibes to K8. Hope you can reschedule a getaway sooner than later.
	12:39pm Spankyflop: Kamen also produced "Music from the Elder" by Kiss and "The Final Cut" by Pink Floyd
	12:40pm Rex: Air Supply slander! (What’s up, EFD!) 👋
	12:40pm Hopey Sockmonkey: At the time I hated all that AOR pop music with a passion. Now I love Yacht Rock and City Pop SO MUCH. A sign of old age?
	12:41pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, KGON is still going.. er, strong... The local joke used to be 'to find KGON on the dial, keep tuning left until you hear Stairway to Heaven.
	12:41pm tim from washington: Speaking of Blondie box set. I wrote Numero to inquire as to why the price of the extras box set has doubled and keeps increasing since the box was announced. It was listed at $100 when announced, then last week was listed for $200 and now it's $225. Numero responded and said that UMG handling the manufacturing and "dictating the price" even after the original announcement. The Numero crew is working on trying to find a solution.
	12:42pm Rich in Washington: Honestly, late night radio on KGON in the mid seventies was my gateway drug to getting into weirdo music. Then, their stoned, bored DJs would play entire albums, sometimes venturing into psych/ Art Rock territory
	12:44pm Spankyflop: @Hopey: Ex-Sex Pistol Steve Jones admitted he'd rather listen to Steely Dan these days so you're not alone.
	12:45pm Beast of Boonton: @efd - What did you think of Portland this trip?
	12:46pm efd: @Rich is that Thomas, who subs for Tony sometimes? He did a guest set on my show when I was in PDX in 2014 and did a live remote from Beech St. Tavern.
	12:46pm Myron Feld: I wonder if Destri’s “Little Metal Drummer” was about his girlfriend at the time, Laura Davis, who was the drummer for the Student Teachers.
	12:47pm efd: @tim that is messed up about the Blondie pricing, I wasn't aware of that.
	12:47pm Frank Zaatar: @Spanky and @Hopey: It's not Steely Dan's fault that they play them on yachts.
	12:48pm efd: @Myron I was going to mention that the album is dedicated to one L.K.D.
	12:48pm tim from washington: @Rich in Washington - The AOR station I listened to in the 80s would do a show called "Saturday Night 6 Pack" at midnight on Saturdays. They'd play 3 whole albums.
	12:48pm Carmichael: Heya Evan. Wow, first Ron Dante and now the Five Americans!
	12:49pm Fuzzy: Dumping someone via telegram -- wouldn't a simple letter suffice?
	12:49pm courtneynoir: When I was a kid I thought the "doo doo doo doo doo" parts of this song were the greatest things ever
	12:50pm drr: Fuzzy: 60's equivalent of dumping via text.
	12:50pm tim from washington: @efd - Yeah, the full box is now close to $500. I'm so bummed I slept on ordering the extra box. I'm priced out. It would not be a hardship for me to save up for it but I can't buy a $225 record in good conscience.
	12:52pm prof.fuzz: @Tim: WOW (in not a good way). Sadly, a hard pass at that price point.
	12:53pm tim from washington: Getting good seats at a Blondie concert is cheaper than the box - hahaha!
	12:54pm efd: jfc, that is too much for that full box. I was on the fence when it was around $300 (?) but fully off the fence at that price.
	12:55pm tim from washington: Is Nude Model Naked Roommate's day job?
	12:55pm Carmichael: I might pay $300 for them to come to my house and play. Then again, I may not.
	12:57pm mr_soju: Spread Joy! Great Chicago band! Happy to hear a local band playing on WFMU!
	12:57pm Myron Feld: @Carmichael: I last saw Blondie in 2019 and I’m very sorry to say they would not be worth your $300 to come play at your house.
	12:58pm tim from washington: There are definitely more pressing issues in the world right now than a major label gouging music fans (UMG) is disheartening.
	12:59pm Carmichael: @Myron, I grudgingly saw them about 10 years ago with Mrs. Carmichael. What really brought me there was the opening act, Devo.
	1:00pm tim from washington: @Myron Feld - would you recommend seeing them for cheap seats in a basketball arena?
	1:00pm prof.fuzz: nudemodel.bandcamp.com...
	1:01pm prof.fuzz: both nude model and spread joy really did it for me. take my money!
	1:03pm Handy Haversack: I think an interesting causality-suggestive mini-set would be Naked Roommate, Wedding Party, Joy Cleaner.
	1:03pm Myron Feld: @Tim: 1) How cheap? 2) Who else is on the bill?
	1:05pm tim from washington: @Myron - "cheap" is context to the other seats so $60-70 plus the Damned opening.
	1:11pm Myron Feld: @Tim: maybe with the Damned, it’s worth it. Haven’t seen them in forever — can anyone speak for their recent greatness or lack thereof?
	1:12pm ?: Well this is pretty damn niCE!
	1:14pm efd: I agree, mystery commenter!
	1:15pm LesleyK: The Damned are definitely worth seeing. Paul Gray will be on bass for the US tour...he is amazing. Dave Vanian still sounds great!
	1:16pm tim from washington: Thanks. Lesley. Is Rat Scabies or the Captain still in the band?
	1:17pm LesleyK: Rat will be playing some shows in the UK only with them (first album songs w Brian James too) but he's not regularly touring with them. Captain has been playing w them and I assume he will be at the US shows
	1:20pm Frank Zaatar: This p.e. set is great. My take: Scott Walker produced by Don Was.
	1:20pm scribble: Great stuff, EFD and P.E.!! 🪶
	1:23pm ParUbi: Neubautenish
	1:24pm brycepunk1: This is pretty wild stuff. I like
	1:24pm TroyD8: Great live set!
	1:26pm abbazabba: This is awesome! You guys rock!
	1:26pm W Trenton Vinny: really cool set, wowza
	1:26pm efd: @Frank, @scribble, @ParUbi, @brycepunk1, @TroyD8, @abbazabba, @W Trenton Vinny glad you're enjoying the live set! Thanks for tuning in!
	1:27pm tim from washington: This p.e. is super cool. It reminds me a bit of some of the early 80s NYC acts/songs. Like 'Holland Tunnel Dive' for instance. Plus the set sounds stellar!
	1:28pm love2laf: This p.e. set is very tasty music, thank you to all involved in getting this to my ears.
	1:29pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): This sounds like Kim Gordon's naughty sister.
	1:29pm Rich in Washington: @efd @12:46: Yes it is. He's a hoot and a half.
	1:31pm efd: @Rich that's my recollection of the brief time I spent with him. He wasn't at Crossroads the day I went.
	1:32pm prof.fuzz: diggin' PE, EFD!
	1:32pm drr: well that was björky.
	1:34pm Handy Haversack: Was thinking there was like streetwise Björky vibes going down, drr.
	1:34pm dano59: Just a quick check-in to say — mailman just pulled up & handed me a box o’swag - dreams can come true with WFMU! Happy happy, joy joy.
	1:35pm Handy Haversack: Happy SWAGVENT, dano59!
	1:36pm efd: @dano59 Thank you for sharing the good news.
	1:36pm tim from washington: That's a good comparison, Handy! Maybe a little of The Thing with Neneh Cherry too. Especially with the Stooges saxomaphoning.
	1:36pm prof.fuzz: that was a smokin' hot take on "dog"!
	1:37pm dano59: Thx Handy! (did you make your Ithaca journey yet, like that guy in O Brother?)
	1:37pm prof.fuzz: @Tim: YES! Very much a Thing+Neneh Cherry vibe. I love that record so much.
	1:37pm efd: @prof.fuzz Yeah! Glad you're digging the set!
	1:37pm Carmichael: Didn't you play a PE cut last week, Evan? Liked it then and like it now! Now back to fiscal year end chaos here in the gub-mint.
	1:38pm efd: @Carmichael I did! Ironically it's a song that they didn't do in this set!
	1:38pm Handy Haversack: Dano59, the journey is in jeopardy. K8's tested positive. So we're looking at Monday best case for being able to leave town, and of course if I get sick or she doesn't recover fast, that gets pushed out ... express bus to Bummer Town around here.
	1:42pm Pax: I always wished that Ron Dante of whom recorded all those one hit wonders under different fictional names and groups instead did it under the banner of just one group keeping it all nice clean and tidy.
	1:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: You need someone with whom to split gas money, Handy? I could (try to) take K8's place. Also, I am an excellent driver.
	1:45pm ?: !!!The Soft Dance -- Oh My!!!
	1:46pm Handy Haversack: I don't want to risk exposing you, Ken! But me, you, and Bagpipe sounds like a pretty fun road trip!
	1:48pm Carmichael: Ha, welcome to the 60s, Pax! If you wish to go further down the rabbit hole, look up Joey Levine from that era. 🙃
	1:49pm tim from washington: Handy - How's your aunt in Michigan doing? I'll be in GR the first week of August.
	1:50pm Handy Haversack: Tim, WILL YOU? We will be in Muskegon/Oceana Co. then, I think! We have to meet up!
	1:50pm tim from washington: Epic set, efd! Keep it coming!
	1:50pm drr: I was watching some old commercials yesterday and a couple of them had jingles sung (and apparently composed) by Joey Levine.
	1:51pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Loving this set--alas, need to jump off to run a Zoom meeting. Gah.
	1:51pm tim from washington: Handy - for real?!? Yeah, we should. I want to take my kids to Hoffmaster State Park. I'll keep you posted on my plans.
	1:54pm p.e.: thanks so much for having us Evan! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
	1:54pm Uleeshuh TN: that was an amazing live set!!!
	1:55pm Handy Haversack: And I am mediated once more. That P.E. set was great! Thanks, efd. Really good stuff.
	1:55pm Kat in Chicago: Airhorned
	1:56pm Kat in Chicago: Excellent live set!
	1:56pm courtneynoir: lol
	1:56pm Pax: I go down rabbit holes every time I go on YouTube, sometimes I even forget what I originally went on there for. But Joey Levine it is. @Carmichael
	1:57pm Handy Haversack: Thanks for the announcement, efd! K8's in bed and napping, but I know she appreciates. Really kind of you.
	1:57pm efd: @p.e. thank you guys so much, that was great!!
	1:58pm courtneynoir: @p.e. great set!
	1:58pm Mike From Brooklyn: @Handy Haversack - I hope K8 feels better soon, you stay healthy and that you can salvage some of your travel plans.
	1:58pm Handy Haversack: I can't believe we're going to miss Lulu Lewis again. We thought we had it all set up to make sure we'd see them -- since K8 set up the show! Our best laid plans ha' gang a-gley. Great set, P.E.!
	1:59pm xtrakrispy: I was at Mama Tried 3x last week. Now another reason to go. I may have to pitch a tent in the backyard. Or find a RV to stay in under the BQE.
	2:00pm drr: Here's that Joey Levine commercial for Mounds: youtu.be...
	2:01pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello Everybody. Sorry about K8, Handy. Hopefully she's not feeling it too badly.
	2:02pm prof.fuzz: hey kevin!
	2:04pm dano59: Sorry to hear Handy… hope she tests/feels better soon (had a friend miss a recent trip to OR after 2 False positives). Lemme know when you make it this way … contact info under my avatar
	2:04pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hey prof!
	2:07pm tim from washington: YES! Magazine is so cool!
	2:07pm Handy Haversack: xtrakrispy: make sure you're there July 21! Thanks, Mike, Kevin, dano, everyone.
	2:08pm xtrakrispy: Will do Handy. Best to you and K8. Two of my co-workers tested positive this weekend as well. As for me, so far, so negative.
	2:08pm egould: My Tulpa damn I love this song and this band.
	2:09pm KevinfromBayRidge: Very tempted to hit Mama's tonight. I'm trying to be careful since my daughter's wedding reception is in 10 days. It would be my luck(Morphe's Law) to test positive right before!
	2:09pm egould: @tim from wa you have fine taste in music. But we knew this already.
	2:11pm tim from washington: @egould - I know Magazine is well regarded but I'm baffled as to why they aren't one of the first bands people talk about when that era of music comes up.
	2:13pm efd: there is a new John McGeoch biography out that looks good - I'm hoping to have the author on my show sometime next month if I can get it together.
	2:14pm Handy Haversack: Kevin -- the show has been moved inside because of the weather tonight.
	2:16pm xtrakrispy: Hah. I had just typed: "Let's hope the rain holds tonight for Lulu show...I presume it" and was about to hit send
	2:17pm tim from washington: That's great, efd! I hope it can happen. The new Hozac book about Jimmy Wilsey (Avengers/Chris Isaac guitarist) looks really great too.
	2:21pm KevinfromBayRidge: Thanks, Handy. Probably pass, given my precautionary posturing.
	2:22pm Handy Haversack: xtrakrispy, maybe they'll move it back since it's been so much dryer than predicted today? Dunno.
	2:23pm egould: Avengers are slated to play at Mississippi Studios in Portland in September. Think I might have to get tickets. And the book from Hozac.
	2:28pm drr: tim from washington: were Magazine's records easy to get in the U.S.? I only remember seeing one in the 80s and the cover didn't appeal to me but I like what I've heard of the band.
	2:28pm b0b0b0b Plasticland: Arista = Clive Davis
	2:29pm efd: indeed.
	2:31pm tim from washington: @drr - Yeah, I'd say so. All of their album are solid and still relatively cheap on used vinyl. There were some nice CD re-issues about 10 years ago too. I overlooked Magazine for a long time until I looked at the back cover in the late 90s. "Hoawrd DeVoto? Barry Adamson? I better pick this up!"
	2:33pm Carmichael: Whoa, this song has an attitude!
	2:35pm xtrakrispy: this is a banger
	2:36pm egould: Thanks for the music selections efd. I gotta get a cheeseburger and a beer in my belly or I’m gonna pass out. Later!
	2:36pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Yippie Hour long meeting was only half an hour...bad news it was because more than half of my remote team is out "with the flu." I have the feeling it's COVID and they just don't want to say so because then they'd have to shut down the office, but it's an outside firm and I have no say in the matter...
	2:37pm efd: happy to have you back in anycase, @Threemoons, and get some food and drink before it's too late @egould!
	2:38pm Carmichael: Handcuffs bandcamp page shows Morgan Fisher playing keys on a few tracks. Impressive ...
	2:39pm tim from washington: The Sensational Country Blues Wonders have Michael Shelley #1 Hit written all over them.
	2:41pm johnk77: great work selecter sadly have never seen avengers live they were among the earliest northern california punk bands post/ramones just found out they also worked with steve jones after being support for pistols last set @winterland
	2:42pm prof.fuzz: vocals here reminding me a bit of stan ridgeway of wall of voodoo... dig it.
	2:42pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: Great to hear the sensational country blues wonders on the show!
	2:43pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Got Stan Ridgeway vibes on that Country Blues track.
	2:44pm drr: 3Moons: seconded.
	2:44pm drr: And Prof. Fuzz.
	2:44pm Carmichael: I was about to chime in re: Ridgeway sound. Looks like we have a quorum.
	2:45pm prof.fuzz: I call the question. All in favor, say AYE! Any opposed? No? Then it's settled.
	2:46pm drr: Unfortunately not a selling point for me.
	2:47pm Robm: @Handy hopeK8 can heal quickly
	2:50pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Robm. efd goes to Philly for shows, we go to Jersey City for shows. Pretty soon tim will be seeing shows in the Aleutians.
	2:50pm vinylmonkee: Great show EFD! @Handy speedy recovery to K8!
	2:51pm Andrew_in_WI: Last time I saw Belle and Sebastian the New Pornographers opened for them. Great double bill
	2:52pm Robm: Your welcome handy and hope your kitties and bagpipe don’t give you too much of a problem
	2:55pm tim from washington: Can't beat the view, Handy!
	2:56pm tim from washington: Is this Ted Leo a plea for Andy Breckman to show up to his show tonight?
	2:57pm tim from washington: Thanks, efd!!! Thanks again for the super duper p.e. set too.
	2:57pm Andrew_in_WI: @Handy I lived in Alaska for 6 years. The biggest name to come to town was Weird Al
	2:58pm drr: Great show, love the live sets, getting my ears opened up to stuff.
	2:58pm Handy Haversack: Pretty big, though, Andrew! Many thanks, efd. Great show! Thanks for the kind wishes, all!
	2:58pm efd: thanks for listening everyone, stay tuned for Scott!
	2:59pm radioronan: Thanks, Evan! Feel better wishes to k8 @handy!
	3:00pm P-90: Thanks @ efd! Never less than 100%
	3:00pm prof.fuzz: later!

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!

Listener comments!
	12:00pm Handy Haversack: Hi, efd, everyone.
	12:00pm efd: SCHLOSS!
	12:00pm prof.fuzz: EFD!
	12:00pm efd: (hi everyone!)
	12:01pm LesleyK: Hey there efd and all
	12:01pm brycepunk1: Woo! EFD, everyone, good afternoon :)
	12:01pm vinylmonkee: Great opener! Good morning/afternoon
	12:01pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): SCHLOSS!!! (Never heard of 'em but it's fun to say)
	12:02pm full metal monkey: Hello EFD and everyone
	12:03pm tim from washington: Hey efd and crew! Schloss's bassist sounds like he's got a mustache bigger than a bavarian pretzel.
	12:04pm efd: surprisingly, Schloss are mustache-free! (At least they were when the back cover photo was taken)
	12:04pm prof.fuzz: hey full metal monkey! how are ya? handy? tim?
	12:04pm morphe': Thought it was the Ozark Mountain Daredevils???
	12:04pm love2laf: Allo EFD & all! What a great start to the afternoon already.
	12:05pm Handy Haversack: efd, looks like we have to miss the Lulu Lewis show that K8 booked at Mama Tried tonight, if you can believe it. She has tested positive, so we're locking down (and canceling our first trip out of town since last fall). It's a shitshow. Unhappy faces abound.
	12:06pm efd: @Handy oh that's such a bummer! Sorry to hear that, hope you're able to avoid it yourself and that K8 has a mild case.
	12:06pm full metal monkey: @Prof.fuzz. Doing great how are you? Are you resting up to go back out on the road?
	12:07pm full metal monkey: @Handy. Sorry to hear man.
	12:07pm drr: hello "Funk" & Co. from N.O. It's....hot. Hey handy, sorry about your re-lockdown.
	12:08pm karlward: Handy and K8, sorry to hear that! Feel better K8!
	12:08pm prof.fuzz: @FMM: van is back in the shop today getting ready for a roadtrip to Beaumont and NOLA this weekend.
	12:08pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, efd, fmm, karlward. Yeah, it's vacation in Bummer City.
	12:10pm full metal monkey: @prof.fuzz. Sounds like fun. I know a reall cool place for cheap home cooked food in New Orleans. Called Verti Marte on Royal street
	12:10pm courtneynoir: Child Bride: The Doug Hutchison Story
	12:10pm tim from washington: Damn, sorry to hear about the vacation cancellation too, Handy! I hope you can make it up.
	12:10pm prof.fuzz: Thanks FMM. Filed away for weekend reference!
	12:11pm James in ATL: Cool record store finds! Thanks EFD!
	12:11pm tim from washington: The interview next week sounds super cool, efd.
	12:11pm Daybreak is Free!: Handy, I am very sorry to hear that the Covid beast has landed again. Is this the fourth or fifth time it’s crashed into your house? At least neither you or Kate has been captured, dragged into a van and been surgically modified to become a child and then made someone’s child bride. Just trying to find the brighter side here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
	12:12pm love2laf: Handy I hope you and K8 fare well, so sorry your anticipated outing had to be cancelled.
	12:12pm full metal monkey: @prof.fuzz. Yeah look it up. It’s a small place looks like any normal corner store. However, in the back they have a take out hot food area. So F’en good and cheap.
	12:12pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Greetings from a busy workday to EFD, fellow Funkies.
	12:14pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH OH NO I am so sorry RE K8, the show, vacation, etc. COVID sucks. Have you tested positive yet also? Even if K8 is asymptomatic, drinking tons of water is KEY. Also, before either of you do Paxlovid, check the counter-indicated medicines from the official FDA site, NOT the manufacturer site -- it's huge. I couldn't take it because it would have meant quitting one of my essential meds 48 hours before even taking the dose, and then being off of it for two WEEKS afterwards. Feel better and best of luck, and I am so sorry the bug bit you.
	12:16pm tim from washington: The Kgon album is a radio station produced record?
	12:16pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: @HH handy link to NIH site. As you can see, the interactions list is HUGE. In my case, it could have caused respiratory failure and death. AND the stupid "tele-doc" didn't even ask what meds I was on. www.covid19treatmentguidelines.nih.gov...
	12:18pm efd: correct, @tim from washington
	12:19pm drr: thanks for that link, 3M
	12:19pm prof.fuzz: hi DRR!
	12:19pm luka: that Legend was smokin. hi, all.
	12:19pm nycmusicnerd: Is this the same Ron Dante that did a lot of work with Barry Manilow in the 70s?
	12:20pm Alvy Singer: Andy Kim co-wrote Let Me Bring You Up.
	12:21pm Lixiviated Life: still here
	12:21pm drr: greetings, professor!
	12:21pm efd: @Alvy as noted on the playlist! :) @nymusicnerd yep.
	12:23pm Alvy Singer: @EFD..Wasn't Ron Dante the lead singer/vocalist of The Archies?
	12:24pm efd: also sounded ok at 33, honestly
	12:24pm drr: Even if this is the wrong speed, it's the right speed.
	12:25pm prof.fuzz: Uh, yeah, 33 1/3 had a solid groove going on...
	12:25pm ifeelfatnsassy: Gotta run out for a meeting but I will definitely be checking out the PE live set in archives...
	12:25pm efd: @Alvy he was definitely involved, not sure if he was the singer on all tracks. I think Andy Kim also sang some of those Archies songs.
	12:26pm efd: @drr Agree!
	12:26pm efd: see ya @ifeelfatnsassy
	12:29pm efd: @prof I'd play an instrumental version of this at 33 for sure!
	12:29pm Eli: Ron Dante of The Archies and The Cufflinks
	12:29pm Mike From Brooklyn: Hello EFD & fellow listeners! Hey Handy Haversack, prof.fuzz, LesleyK!
	12:29pm Mike From Brooklyn: @Handy Haversack - sorry to hear about K8 and your plans. Major bummer!
	12:30pm paddy in matawan: autotune whistle?
	12:33pm efd: @paddy I don't think anyone knew what autotune was in 1981.
	12:34pm prof.fuzz: Hey Mike! Hope you're havin' a good one!
	12:34pm tim from washington: I didn't know Jimmy Destri did a solo record. Sounded good!
	12:34pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mike. Thanks, all. Threemoons, not even sure what Paxlovid is, so I don't think we'll be using it.
	12:35pm LesleyK: Yeah sorry to hear Handy. Get better fast K8!!
	12:35pm Kat in Chicago: Ooh I like mesmerizing captivating live sets
	12:37pm Frank Zaatar: Michael Kamen started with the New York Rock and Roll Ensemble and went on to do a lot of film scores.
	12:38pm Rich in Washington: One of the owners of Crossroads Records occasionally subs for Tony Coulter.
	12:38pm Kat in Chicago: Rats! Just read the bad news, Handy. Sending recovery vibes to K8. Hope you can reschedule a getaway sooner than later.
	12:39pm Spankyflop: Kamen also produced "Music from the Elder" by Kiss and "The Final Cut" by Pink Floyd
	12:40pm Rex: Air Supply slander! (What’s up, EFD!) 👋
	12:40pm Hopey Sockmonkey: At the time I hated all that AOR pop music with a passion. Now I love Yacht Rock and City Pop SO MUCH. A sign of old age?
	12:41pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, KGON is still going.. er, strong... The local joke used to be 'to find KGON on the dial, keep tuning left until you hear Stairway to Heaven.
	12:41pm tim from washington: Speaking of Blondie box set. I wrote Numero to inquire as to why the price of the extras box set has doubled and keeps increasing since the box was announced. It was listed at $100 when announced, then last week was listed for $200 and now it's $225. Numero responded and said that UMG handling the manufacturing and "dictating the price" even after the original announcement. The Numero crew is working on trying to find a solution.
	12:42pm Rich in Washington: Honestly, late night radio on KGON in the mid seventies was my gateway drug to getting into weirdo music. Then, their stoned, bored DJs would play entire albums, sometimes venturing into psych/ Art Rock territory
	12:44pm Spankyflop: @Hopey: Ex-Sex Pistol Steve Jones admitted he'd rather listen to Steely Dan these days so you're not alone.
	12:45pm Beast of Boonton: @efd - What did you think of Portland this trip?
	12:46pm efd: @Rich is that Thomas, who subs for Tony sometimes? He did a guest set on my show when I was in PDX in 2014 and did a live remote from Beech St. Tavern.
	12:46pm Myron Feld: I wonder if Destri’s “Little Metal Drummer” was about his girlfriend at the time, Laura Davis, who was the drummer for the Student Teachers.
	12:47pm efd: @tim that is messed up about the Blondie pricing, I wasn't aware of that.
	12:47pm Frank Zaatar: @Spanky and @Hopey: It's not Steely Dan's fault that they play them on yachts.
	12:48pm efd: @Myron I was going to mention that the album is dedicated to one L.K.D.
	12:48pm tim from washington: @Rich in Washington - The AOR station I listened to in the 80s would do a show called "Saturday Night 6 Pack" at midnight on Saturdays. They'd play 3 whole albums.
	12:48pm Carmichael: Heya Evan. Wow, first Ron Dante and now the Five Americans!
	12:49pm Fuzzy: Dumping someone via telegram -- wouldn't a simple letter suffice?
	12:49pm courtneynoir: When I was a kid I thought the "doo doo doo doo doo" parts of this song were the greatest things ever
	12:50pm drr: Fuzzy: 60's equivalent of dumping via text.
	12:50pm tim from washington: @efd - Yeah, the full box is now close to $500. I'm so bummed I slept on ordering the extra box. I'm priced out. It would not be a hardship for me to save up for it but I can't buy a $225 record in good conscience.
	12:52pm prof.fuzz: @Tim: WOW (in not a good way). Sadly, a hard pass at that price point.
	12:53pm tim from washington: Getting good seats at a Blondie concert is cheaper than the box - hahaha!
	12:54pm efd: jfc, that is too much for that full box. I was on the fence when it was around $300 (?) but fully off the fence at that price.
	12:55pm tim from washington: Is Nude Model Naked Roommate's day job?
	12:55pm Carmichael: I might pay $300 for them to come to my house and play. Then again, I may not.
	12:57pm mr_soju: Spread Joy! Great Chicago band! Happy to hear a local band playing on WFMU!
	12:57pm Myron Feld: @Carmichael: I last saw Blondie in 2019 and I’m very sorry to say they would not be worth your $300 to come play at your house.
	12:58pm tim from washington: There are definitely more pressing issues in the world right now than a major label gouging music fans (UMG) is disheartening.
	12:59pm Carmichael: @Myron, I grudgingly saw them about 10 years ago with Mrs. Carmichael. What really brought me there was the opening act, Devo.
	1:00pm tim from washington: @Myron Feld - would you recommend seeing them for cheap seats in a basketball arena?
	1:00pm prof.fuzz: nudemodel.bandcamp.com...
	1:01pm prof.fuzz: both nude model and spread joy really did it for me. take my money!
	1:03pm Handy Haversack: I think an interesting causality-suggestive mini-set would be Naked Roommate, Wedding Party, Joy Cleaner.
	1:03pm Myron Feld: @Tim: 1) How cheap? 2) Who else is on the bill?
	1:05pm tim from washington: @Myron - "cheap" is context to the other seats so $60-70 plus the Damned opening.
	1:11pm Myron Feld: @Tim: maybe with the Damned, it’s worth it. Haven’t seen them in forever — can anyone speak for their recent greatness or lack thereof?
	1:12pm ?: Well this is pretty damn niCE!
	1:14pm efd: I agree, mystery commenter!
	1:15pm LesleyK: The Damned are definitely worth seeing. Paul Gray will be on bass for the US tour...he is amazing. Dave Vanian still sounds great!
	1:16pm tim from washington: Thanks. Lesley. Is Rat Scabies or the Captain still in the band?
	1:17pm LesleyK: Rat will be playing some shows in the UK only with them (first album songs w Brian James too) but he's not regularly touring with them. Captain has been playing w them and I assume he will be at the US shows
	1:20pm Frank Zaatar: This p.e. set is great. My take: Scott Walker produced by Don Was.
	1:20pm scribble: Great stuff, EFD and P.E.!! 🪶
	1:23pm ParUbi: Neubautenish
	1:24pm brycepunk1: This is pretty wild stuff. I like
	1:24pm TroyD8: Great live set!
	1:26pm abbazabba: This is awesome! You guys rock!
	1:26pm W Trenton Vinny: really cool set, wowza
	1:26pm efd: @Frank, @scribble, @ParUbi, @brycepunk1, @TroyD8, @abbazabba, @W Trenton Vinny glad you're enjoying the live set! Thanks for tuning in!
	1:27pm tim from washington: This p.e. is super cool. It reminds me a bit of some of the early 80s NYC acts/songs. Like 'Holland Tunnel Dive' for instance. Plus the set sounds stellar!
	1:28pm love2laf: This p.e. set is very tasty music, thank you to all involved in getting this to my ears.
	1:29pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): This sounds like Kim Gordon's naughty sister.
	1:29pm Rich in Washington: @efd @12:46: Yes it is. He's a hoot and a half.
	1:31pm efd: @Rich that's my recollection of the brief time I spent with him. He wasn't at Crossroads the day I went.
	1:32pm prof.fuzz: diggin' PE, EFD!
	1:32pm drr: well that was björky.
	1:34pm Handy Haversack: Was thinking there was like streetwise Björky vibes going down, drr.
	1:34pm dano59: Just a quick check-in to say — mailman just pulled up & handed me a box o’swag - dreams can come true with WFMU! Happy happy, joy joy.
	1:35pm Handy Haversack: Happy SWAGVENT, dano59!
	1:36pm efd: @dano59 Thank you for sharing the good news.
	1:36pm tim from washington: That's a good comparison, Handy! Maybe a little of The Thing with Neneh Cherry too. Especially with the Stooges saxomaphoning.
	1:36pm prof.fuzz: that was a smokin' hot take on "dog"!
	1:37pm dano59: Thx Handy! (did you make your Ithaca journey yet, like that guy in O Brother?)
	1:37pm prof.fuzz: @Tim: YES! Very much a Thing+Neneh Cherry vibe. I love that record so much.
	1:37pm efd: @prof.fuzz Yeah! Glad you're digging the set!
	1:37pm Carmichael: Didn't you play a PE cut last week, Evan? Liked it then and like it now! Now back to fiscal year end chaos here in the gub-mint.
	1:38pm efd: @Carmichael I did! Ironically it's a song that they didn't do in this set!
	1:38pm Handy Haversack: Dano59, the journey is in jeopardy. K8's tested positive. So we're looking at Monday best case for being able to leave town, and of course if I get sick or she doesn't recover fast, that gets pushed out ... express bus to Bummer Town around here.
	1:42pm Pax: I always wished that Ron Dante of whom recorded all those one hit wonders under different fictional names and groups instead did it under the banner of just one group keeping it all nice clean and tidy.
	1:43pm Ken From Hyde Park: You need someone with whom to split gas money, Handy? I could (try to) take K8's place. Also, I am an excellent driver.
	1:45pm ?: !!!The Soft Dance -- Oh My!!!
	1:46pm Handy Haversack: I don't want to risk exposing you, Ken! But me, you, and Bagpipe sounds like a pretty fun road trip!
	1:48pm Carmichael: Ha, welcome to the 60s, Pax! If you wish to go further down the rabbit hole, look up Joey Levine from that era. 🙃
	1:49pm tim from washington: Handy - How's your aunt in Michigan doing? I'll be in GR the first week of August.
	1:50pm Handy Haversack: Tim, WILL YOU? We will be in Muskegon/Oceana Co. then, I think! We have to meet up!
	1:50pm tim from washington: Epic set, efd! Keep it coming!
	1:50pm drr: I was watching some old commercials yesterday and a couple of them had jingles sung (and apparently composed) by Joey Levine.
	1:51pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Loving this set--alas, need to jump off to run a Zoom meeting. Gah.
	1:51pm tim from washington: Handy - for real?!? Yeah, we should. I want to take my kids to Hoffmaster State Park. I'll keep you posted on my plans.
	1:54pm p.e.: thanks so much for having us Evan! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
	1:54pm Uleeshuh TN: that was an amazing live set!!!
	1:55pm Handy Haversack: And I am mediated once more. That P.E. set was great! Thanks, efd. Really good stuff.
	1:55pm Kat in Chicago: Airhorned
	1:56pm Kat in Chicago: Excellent live set!
	1:56pm courtneynoir: lol
	1:56pm Pax: I go down rabbit holes every time I go on YouTube, sometimes I even forget what I originally went on there for. But Joey Levine it is. @Carmichael
	1:57pm Handy Haversack: Thanks for the announcement, efd! K8's in bed and napping, but I know she appreciates. Really kind of you.
	1:57pm efd: @p.e. thank you guys so much, that was great!!
	1:58pm courtneynoir: @p.e. great set!
	1:58pm Mike From Brooklyn: @Handy Haversack - I hope K8 feels better soon, you stay healthy and that you can salvage some of your travel plans.
	1:58pm Handy Haversack: I can't believe we're going to miss Lulu Lewis again. We thought we had it all set up to make sure we'd see them -- since K8 set up the show! Our best laid plans ha' gang a-gley. Great set, P.E.!
	1:59pm xtrakrispy: I was at Mama Tried 3x last week. Now another reason to go. I may have to pitch a tent in the backyard. Or find a RV to stay in under the BQE.
	2:00pm drr: Here's that Joey Levine commercial for Mounds: youtu.be...
	2:01pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello Everybody. Sorry about K8, Handy. Hopefully she's not feeling it too badly.
	2:02pm prof.fuzz: hey kevin!
	2:04pm dano59: Sorry to hear Handy… hope she tests/feels better soon (had a friend miss a recent trip to OR after 2 False positives). Lemme know when you make it this way … contact info under my avatar
	2:04pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hey prof!
	2:07pm tim from washington: YES! Magazine is so cool!
	2:07pm Handy Haversack: xtrakrispy: make sure you're there July 21! Thanks, Mike, Kevin, dano, everyone.
	2:08pm xtrakrispy: Will do Handy. Best to you and K8. Two of my co-workers tested positive this weekend as well. As for me, so far, so negative.
	2:08pm egould: My Tulpa damn I love this song and this band.
	2:09pm KevinfromBayRidge: Very tempted to hit Mama's tonight. I'm trying to be careful since my daughter's wedding reception is in 10 days. It would be my luck(Morphe's Law) to test positive right before!
	2:09pm egould: @tim from wa you have fine taste in music. But we knew this already.
	2:11pm tim from washington: @egould - I know Magazine is well regarded but I'm baffled as to why they aren't one of the first bands people talk about when that era of music comes up.
	2:13pm efd: there is a new John McGeoch biography out that looks good - I'm hoping to have the author on my show sometime next month if I can get it together.
	2:14pm Handy Haversack: Kevin -- the show has been moved inside because of the weather tonight.
	2:16pm xtrakrispy: Hah. I had just typed: "Let's hope the rain holds tonight for Lulu show...I presume it" and was about to hit send
	2:17pm tim from washington: That's great, efd! I hope it can happen. The new Hozac book about Jimmy Wilsey (Avengers/Chris Isaac guitarist) looks really great too.
	2:21pm KevinfromBayRidge: Thanks, Handy. Probably pass, given my precautionary posturing.
	2:22pm Handy Haversack: xtrakrispy, maybe they'll move it back since it's been so much dryer than predicted today? Dunno.
	2:23pm egould: Avengers are slated to play at Mississippi Studios in Portland in September. Think I might have to get tickets. And the book from Hozac.
	2:28pm drr: tim from washington: were Magazine's records easy to get in the U.S.? I only remember seeing one in the 80s and the cover didn't appeal to me but I like what I've heard of the band.
	2:28pm b0b0b0b Plasticland: Arista = Clive Davis
	2:29pm efd: indeed.
	2:31pm tim from washington: @drr - Yeah, I'd say so. All of their album are solid and still relatively cheap on used vinyl. There were some nice CD re-issues about 10 years ago too. I overlooked Magazine for a long time until I looked at the back cover in the late 90s. "Hoawrd DeVoto? Barry Adamson? I better pick this up!"
	2:33pm Carmichael: Whoa, this song has an attitude!
	2:35pm xtrakrispy: this is a banger
	2:36pm egould: Thanks for the music selections efd. I gotta get a cheeseburger and a beer in my belly or I’m gonna pass out. Later!
	2:36pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Yippie Hour long meeting was only half an hour...bad news it was because more than half of my remote team is out "with the flu." I have the feeling it's COVID and they just don't want to say so because then they'd have to shut down the office, but it's an outside firm and I have no say in the matter...
	2:37pm efd: happy to have you back in anycase, @Threemoons, and get some food and drink before it's too late @egould!
	2:38pm Carmichael: Handcuffs bandcamp page shows Morgan Fisher playing keys on a few tracks. Impressive ...
	2:39pm tim from washington: The Sensational Country Blues Wonders have Michael Shelley #1 Hit written all over them.
	2:41pm johnk77: great work selecter sadly have never seen avengers live they were among the earliest northern california punk bands post/ramones just found out they also worked with steve jones after being support for pistols last set @winterland
	2:42pm prof.fuzz: vocals here reminding me a bit of stan ridgeway of wall of voodoo... dig it.
	2:42pm (another) Patrick in Hoboken: Great to hear the sensational country blues wonders on the show!
	2:43pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Got Stan Ridgeway vibes on that Country Blues track.
	2:44pm drr: 3Moons: seconded.
	2:44pm drr: And Prof. Fuzz.
	2:44pm Carmichael: I was about to chime in re: Ridgeway sound. Looks like we have a quorum.
	2:45pm prof.fuzz: I call the question. All in favor, say AYE! Any opposed? No? Then it's settled.
	2:46pm drr: Unfortunately not a selling point for me.
	2:47pm Robm: @Handy hopeK8 can heal quickly
	2:50pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Robm. efd goes to Philly for shows, we go to Jersey City for shows. Pretty soon tim will be seeing shows in the Aleutians.

	2:55pm tim from washington: Can't beat the view, Handy!
	2:56pm tim from washington: Is this Ted Leo a plea for Andy Breckman to show up to his show tonight?
	2:57pm tim from washington: Thanks, efd!!! Thanks again for the super duper p.e. set too.
	2:57pm Andrew_in_WI: @Handy I lived in Alaska for 6 years. The biggest name to come to town was Weird Al
	2:58pm drr: Great show, love the live sets, getting my ears opened up to stuff.
