	12:01pm Handy Haversack: efd! All the other letters! Yo, prof.fuzz!
	12:01pm PuraVida: Morning from soon to be 100 degree Boulder.CO
	12:01pm efd: ha! What's the temp down there, prof? 110?
	12:01pm G: @Hinday: GMD here and representin lol
	12:02pm G: In Saudi Arabia, air conditions you.
	12:02pm tim from washington: I'n calling the hot line to tell them that efd is heating up the airwaves!
	12:02pm prof.fuzz: Currently 91 in Dallas. Expected high today is 104.
	12:03pm G: @fuzz: Turn off the a/c so your grid doesn't collapse haha
	12:03pm PuraVida: @prof.fuzz I feel your heat
	12:03pm efd: ah, a cold snap!
	12:04pm G: @efd: Is you show motto a comment on subbing Tuesday at 6am? lol
	12:04pm tim from washington: Stay cool, prof! Here's how I beat the heat. I carry a car door around with me wherever I go so that way I can roll down the window when I get too hot.
	12:04pm prof.fuzz: We're playing an outdoor fest in Durant OK on Saturday, where the temp is expected to be 105. @G. The grid will collapse one way or another, just like Blondie said. @PV. I'd rather feel your ac @efd: yes, it's sweater weather again. @tim: brilliant!
	12:05pm Handy Haversack: prof.fuzz, I'm doing light production work on the e-book version of Zhuangzi: A New Translation of the Sayings of Master Zhuang as Interpreted by Guo Xiang. So it's pretty hot up here, too!
	12:05pm PuraVida: @prof.fuzz Saw a photo of workers dumping wheelbarrels full of ice into the pool of a waterpark somewhere in Texas because it was SO hot
	12:05pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: the guo xiang commentary on zhuangzi always makes me hot!
	12:06pm prof.fuzz: @PV: Seems legit. Maybe we can get workers to dump buckets of ice cubes on us saturday evening...
	12:06pm yerfriendpaul: Hey efd, everyone!
	12:06pm luka: hi friends
	12:07pm Erella: Thank you for playing Young Marble Giants today! YAY
	12:08pm efd: @Erella my pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it!
	12:08pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and funky funky people. In a Zoom staff meeting, but paying attention nonetheless!
	12:09pm efd: Greetings to all listeners, from regions hot, cold, and inbetween! Thanks for tuning in this Wednesday afternoon (NJ time)!
	12:09pm BillyLundun: Great start to the show!! Happy to be listening!
	12:10pm Editor B: Holy heck I had utterly forgotten about this song ("The City") — I think i had it on a second-hand sampler record or something. It was not really my jam as a teen in the 1980s but now it sounds awesome.
	12:10pm Editor B: a long long long lonely taxi ride
	12:11pm Andres: Good aft, efd and all! Blanching at the mere thought of the temps some of you are facing. Stay cool, peeps!
	12:11pm Gerry from Miami: EFD, isn't this version of the Mark-Almond band's "In the City" a re-recording? The original came several years before this, I believe.
	12:11pm Hoboken Jack: I'm gathering that Mark-Almond is not Mark Almond. Hello EFD, Handy, Bag-Pipe, all.
	12:12pm HyperDose: This is something special. Yes it is.
	12:12pm Hoboken Jack: Yo HyperDose
	12:13pm efd: @Hoboken Jack that Mark Almond is Marc Almond.
	12:13pm Carmichael: And strangely, today's temp will only be about 88.
	12:13pm Gerry from Miami: @Editor B. The Almond you are thinking of spells his name MARC.
	12:13pm efd: @Gerry could be, I'm just playing it from the record I have
	12:13pm Gerry from Miami: @Editor B. The Almond you are thinking of spells his name MARC.
	12:14pm prof.fuzz: @carmichael: I've got a parka I'm not using today if you need it.
	12:14pm Carmichael: Mark-Almond played with John Mayall at one point.
	12:14pm Mister Dobalina: 80° by 7pm, supposedly.
	12:14pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack!
	12:16pm HyperDose: Hoboken Jack, it's about that time. Sausage and a meatball 💨🍕🍕
	12:18pm Hoboken Jack: Sometimes I feel like like a nut, sometimes I don't.
	12:18pm McGroovey: I'm just glad I don't have to write anymore vasectomy jokes. The oil change isn't done yet. When I had a driveway, I used up do them myself.
	12:19pm Hoboken Jack: How goes, McGroove
	12:24pm PKNY: Deep Kut KISS!
	12:24pm tim from washington: Yes! I forgot how faithful and great this cover is.
	12:26pm YETI BOB: Gene (or is it Paul?) really sounds like he's from Queens
	12:26pm G: The man in the back said Everyone Attack!
	12:27pm luka: greatest band ever. basically. right?
	12:27pm mrdonutsu: Already late to the party, dammit!!!
	12:28pm HyperDose: I'd know that syncopated shuffle pattern anywhere 😍
	12:28pm tim from washington: @Yeti Bob - yeah, it could have been Johnny Thunders with better production.
	12:28pm G: This is 1975? I remember it being at or near the top of the UK charts when I lived there in 72-73...
	12:28pm efd: playing this song in honor of the man who played that iconic beat, @HyperDose
	12:28pm efd: @G 1975 album released in the US
	12:29pm G: @efd: Like T Rex and Slade, Sweet were not as big here as there lol
	12:30pm prof.fuzz: such a great tune
	12:30pm HyperDose: Pagan Hides has to be the name of your Sweet cover band now, efd
	12:33pm Todd76Pct: Mick's pounding shuffle on "Into the Night" is an all-time fave!
	12:34pm Handy Haversack: I was thinking the Pagan Hide Thumpers would be a great tour partner for Fangboner this fall.
	12:35pm HyperDose: I'd attend that show horned helmet and cape adorned
	12:35pm Hoboken Jack: Joan Jett's "Crimson and Clover" was the first lyrical non gender switch I experienced, and it made me feel all funny inside.
	12:35pm tim from washington: @Handy - that tour sounds like it would end with a trail of lawsuits and band members in jail.
	12:36pm prof.fuzz: @tim: as any good rock and roll tour should...
	12:36pm Chris Crash: Hello Mr. Funk! This was the Fancy song I was talking about on Sunday. "I'm like a cake that wants to be baked! I'm like a pie made for hungry guys!" youtu.be...
	12:37pm Hoboken Jack: I was thinking 2nu was a lost Steven Wright single.
	12:38pm YETI BOB: I'm pretty sure n.i.t.a. is an abbrev for "Nature intended the abstract" - from the song lyrics
	12:39pm Beast of Boonton: Listening to the radio "in the good old days" is about 2 weeks ago :)
	12:39pm G: So this is the live accuplay list!
	12:39pm courtneynoir: @Chris I initially thought the Fancy that EFD started with last week was THAT Fancy going in a different direction
	12:40pm pgalub: Hey efd and everyone. JAAAAACK! Handy!
	12:41pm tim from washington: Green/Blue is playing at Gonerfest in the September. Looks like there's a free streaming option for those unable to attend in person.
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: courtneynoir: Same! Hey, Pete!
	12:41pm courtneynoir: I've been all over this album lately and am stoked to see them at Gonerfest
	12:44pm slugluv1313: greetings, EFD! Funksters! lurking about, getting ready to head on out 😺😺 thank you for Ballroom Blitz! 🖤🖤🖤 super bittersweet memories of dancing to this with Wm. Berger at a party here in Hoboken -- 1980s, his Hip-Bone/Uncle Wiggly days? (and Hoboken's pre-gentrified Low-Life Scum days!)
	12:47pm Mister Dobalina: EFD & the place to be!
	12:47pm tim from washington: You can't beat the motorik beat.
	12:48pm Analog Nights: NEU groove forever
	12:48pm Andres: Digging this set of new sounds!
	12:49pm prof.fuzz: EFD is gonna cost me some more money... Double Wig!!!
	12:49pm slugluv1313: @tim from washington, @Yeti Bob -- somewhere in the back of my senile old brain, i am recalling that Johnny Thunders did cover Then He Kissed Me -- ??
	12:51pm tim from washington: @slugluv - I think you're right!
	12:52pm tim from washington: Aha - Bardo Pond related!
	12:53pm luka: guitars so crunchy
	12:53pm HyperDose: Courtney Love boutta sue somebody
	12:54pm Mister Dobalina: Can't believe it, the elephant heart plum tree downstairs from my building is finally fruiting. So exciting!
	12:56pm Figgsrock: The only plus of being sick with food poisoning today was being able to hear your first break in full EFD, since I didn’t have my 12:30 editorial meeting. I’m listening while on the couch, which is a first for me I believe.
	12:56pm tim from washington: @HyperDose - Is this what COurtney Love/Hole sounds like? I have successully avoided knowing what they sound like.
	12:56pm efd: @Figgsrock oh no! Something you ate while at the office yesterday? Hope it passes, so to speak, quickly.
	12:57pm Chris Crash: *Courtney I thought the same thing!
	12:58pm Handy Haversack: Did Rex discover this band? Sidestepping Dave completely? MOMMA!
	12:59pm HyperDose: @Tim Dare I say Hole is heavier. I'm just assuming she's the executor of the Cobain estate. momma is SUCH a good band
	1:00pm Matt Fiveash: "Momma"- the Mell Lazarus spelling. Nice
	1:00pm Matt Fiveash: Doh! Jinx!
	1:00pm Andres: 100% great set!
	1:00pm Figgsrock: @efd No, I believe it was my dinner from last night. Especially waking up at 3am to um…deal with it.
	1:01pm ChukAmok: Anyone else going to Gonerfest this year?
	1:01pm slugluv1313: @tim -- YES! on So Alone with Patti Palladin -- "She always looks like/She's Born to Lose" 🖤🖤🖤 (gosh, HOW could i space out on this!)
	1:01pm Hoboken Jack: Say MOMMA
	1:02pm slugluv1313: @Figgsrock -- feel better soon!
	1:03pm steveo: I'm on a bus! The WiFi actually works! Sounding good. Mama.
	1:05pm clarke: great to hear adny's voice, again!!
	1:06pm tim from washington: Sounds like the Dolls Puss'n'Boots.
	1:06pm tim from washington: Yes! You're right Sluguv. Thanks for confirming.
	1:06pm slugluv1313: YES! Personality Crisis vibes
	1:07pm slugluv1313: @tim -- anytime!
	1:08pm clarke: a semi-two-fer
	1:11pm courtneynoir: @Chuk ME! We bailed on Gonerfest last year cos COVID numbers were too high for comfort so didn't get to see Reigning Sound one last time. At least we get Compulsive Gamblers this year I guess
	1:12pm prof.fuzz: hey clarke!
	1:12pm clarke: howdy!! yes, courtney - CG's is booked, we'll see!
	1:12pm clarke: the NaZZZZZ
	1:13pm clarke: RIP Manny!! yipe.
	1:14pm Figgsrock: Wow, haven’t heard this Nazareth track in a lonnnnnng time.
	1:14pm Handy Haversack: MOMMA MOMMA please! I think I holiday a little differently.
	1:15pm clarke: sorry i'm late - i put my car up in a parking garage, as storms approach (street floods), and walked back - WHEW!!
	1:15pm prof.fuzz: this song takes me WAY back...
	1:16pm efd: @clarke Bet you lost five pounds just from that walk!
	1:17pm prof.fuzz: i never actively sought out nazareth, but "holiday" was all over the radio when i was in high school. really good tune.
	1:17pm clarke: only a few miles, but, hope i did!! ha ha.
	1:18pm ChukAmok: courtneynoir: Excellent! Bailed last year for the same reason. Super psyched to see Tyvek again!
	1:18pm clarke: i might go to Goner, as well.
	1:20pm ChukAmok: Awesome, clarke! Got my pass on Monday.
	1:21pm tim from washington: Looks like theirs a ton of Australian bands at Goner this year.
	1:21pm clarke: a FUNKy cleopatra?
	1:21pm tim from washington: And Negative Approach!
	1:21pm efd: I don't write the songs, I just play 'em!
	1:22pm clarke: i'm not so sure...
	1:23pm clarke: did you sleep all yesterday afternoon, EFD??
	1:23pm Ciggy: Hi @EFD. A couple of days ago, Stephen King tweeted he was on a Power Pop binge: "Power Pop day at my house: Nick Lowe, Dave Edmunds, and a whole box of Raspberries. With some Eric Carmen solo stuff on the side." Thought of you.
	1:24pm Chris Crash: Handcuffs song is fantastic
	1:25pm clarke: and the Romantics - brad elvis.
	1:25pm clarke: riiiight.
	1:25pm tim from washington: For some reason I thought that Clem Burke was on the stool for the Romantics.
	1:26pm clarke: he looks and plays a LOT like clem
	1:26pm Handy Haversack: efd saw me on Sunday!
	1:27pm clarke: and there will be four more weeks of winter!!
	1:27pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): He felt bad for Love Hurts
	1:28pm prof.fuzz: @clarke: send those four weeks of winter our way!
	1:28pm clarke: then the parka would make sense!
	1:31pm clarke: i know tis rough, today, FuZZZ, up and out there!
	1:32pm prof.fuzz: We're sitting at 99 degrees at the moment... Only 27% humidity, so that's a "plus."
	1:32pm Hoboken Jack: I heart Lithics
	1:32pm Figgsrock: I’ll admit EFD, the “If you will, and I will” comments made me double over I’m laughter. I must be sick! Ha!
	1:33pm clarke: yes, but supposed to hit 104 (as per weather channel)!!
	1:33pm efd: can't believe Paul Bruno got the drop on me with this new Lithics single!
	1:33pm ChukAmok: Humidity is at 60% here. Praying for a downpour. My garden needs it!
	1:34pm clarke: stay in and rock!!
	1:34pm prof.fuzz: @clarke: Yup. And as I noted earlier, it's supposed to be 105 in Durant OK on Sat, where we're playing an outdoor festival with a 6:15 set time. Oh boy!
	1:34pm ChukAmok: This new Lithics is super good. Can't believe I missed out on the lathe. :(
	1:34pm Hoboken Jack: How's it going, Clarke?
	1:34pm efd: @tim from washington Clem was playing with the Romantics for a time, he was with them when they played Joe Belock's show in the... early 2000s?
	1:34pm Figgsrock: Or in laughter, if you will.
	1:35pm clarke: lordy!!! FuZZ might turn to Fizz!!!
	1:36pm Handy Haversack: 90F here, and I have a softball game in North Meadow in Central Park in a few hours. Also known as the location in Manhattan farthest from a bar.
	1:36pm prof.fuzz: Puddle of Fuzz...
	1:36pm efd: @Figgsrock I'll try not to be funny for the rest of the show, though in my defense I wasn't really trying to be funny! :)
	1:36pm clarke: jack, there's a storm stuck out in the gulf about to pkay havoc with flooding (probably), but other than that: tracking away in me backhouse bungalow!!
	1:36pm steveo: Hot air can hold a lot of moisture
	1:38pm clarke: it ain't lookin' great steveo!
	1:38pm tim from washington: Blue Orchids - the fall related band?
	1:38pm prof.fuzz: @Tim: Yes. Martin Brameh.
	1:39pm tim from washington: @efd - that's must be what I was thinking of re: Clem Burke. @Handy - why must the fates plot against you so?!?!
	1:39pm clarke: Fuzz - ya'll got some airplay yesterday mawnin'!!
	1:39pm efd: @tim Yes! New stuff from them, believe it or not!
	1:40pm prof.fuzz: @clarke: Doh! Missed that. Have to dredge the archives.
	1:40pm clarke: Handy - there's this concept called...ice chests (or in the northern vernacular: coolers).
	1:41pm clarke: EFD played Owl song during a fill-in for Wake! sounded great!
	1:41pm prof.fuzz: @clarke: found it! EFD know's I'm not awake at that hour!!! Thanks!
	1:42pm clarke: i rarely am - but it sure woke me up!!
	1:43pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello all, Sorry I missed the Mama Tried meetup, especially given all the FMU royalty attending. Instead I got the privilege of seeing the Met's shutout for 10 innings....Ughhh!
	1:43pm Chris Crash: God gell yeah, love this Republica track. Haven't thought about it in forever!
	1:43pm prof.fuzz: That Owl will do that to you, and worse. Just ask Full Metal Monkey...
	1:43pm Figgsrock: Republica? Have I been transported back to 1996?
	1:44pm toorushed: Great set. Loved The Handcuffs particularly.
	1:44pm clarke: ouch, Kevin. still, a good year for the mets??
	1:44pm efd: @Figgsrock you must be delirious!
	1:45pm Figgsrock: I should add that I LOVE this Republica song. Always sounds great in a car.
	1:45pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Republica. One of the luckiest bands in the world. One hit wonder that ends up being played before every sports match in the world as teams run out onto the field/ice/pitch/etc.
	1:45pm clarke: hopefully a transporter would act a little more responsibly, Figgs!!
	1:46pm RevWaldo: I remember this car commerical 😎
	1:46pm cl@m_digger: They don’t make them like this anymore
	1:46pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Republica gets paid by pretty much every team for each of their games.
	1:46pm efd: best of luck to all bands
	1:47pm prof.fuzz: republica = #lifegoals
	1:47pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): I like Republica! I wish I were as lucky!
	1:47pm clarke: i don't think this song is about sports.
	1:47pm Andres: Feeling pumped up!!
	1:48pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Best of luck to all bands... except for goddamned Dave Matthews Band. They're lucky for all of the wrong reasons. But... that's just me. ;)
	1:49pm prof.fuzz: we did manage to get a song on a "food and travel show" aired on an espn major sportball conference ntetwork. i love the idea of one of our dirtiest songs being broadcast into the homes of millions of unsuspecting sportball fans across the american south... but damn, good on republica.
	1:49pm clarke: their luck ran out, long ago jonny!
	1:49pm Figgsrock: @EFD I am less delirious than the Prince song, but more delirious than the Hanoi Rocks song.
	1:49pm prof.fuzz: not at bad as the luck of the unsuspecting boat passengers in chicago...
	1:50pm tim from washington: @Listener Jonny - And they intentionally polluted the Chicago River!
	1:50pm prof.fuzz: @tim: this is why history matters.
	1:50pm tim from washington: We're on the same page again, prof!
	1:50pm clarke: at least that started the, er, downslide, Fuzz
	1:51pm efd: agree, DMB are exempted from my statement
	1:51pm prof.fuzz: great minds...
	1:52pm clarke: is chick corea in murder hornetz???
	1:52pm tim from washington: Man, it's bad enough to get tour bus sludge dumped on you but to have it come from the Dave Mattacks tour bus? Triflin!
	1:57pm Figgsrock: Glad to hear we’ll hear more from Milano Undiscovered. That track was excellent.
	1:57pm Gerry from Miami: Evan, why no credit to the horn players on the murder hornets cut? I got serious Zappa, Snarky Puppy and other jazz-oriented vibes from them. You only announced that the hornetz were a bassist and a guitarist.
	1:58pm tim from washington: C'mon social media air horn!
	1:58pm clarke: with courtney's approval??
	1:58pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Gerry from Miami: It's a well-known fact that efd is a hornist.
	1:59pm Handy Haversack: A murder hornist, Woods?
	1:59pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Ha!
	2:04pm efd: @tim I rarely do the SMAH during the same mic break when I announce upcoming specials
	2:05pm tim from washington: Duly noted, efd.
	2:05pm clarke: the glimpse behind the curtain!!
	2:05pm efd: @Gerry mainly because a) those are the two core members, and b) I didn't click the little "more" link to expand the description of the band or I would have seen two other people mentioned. I hope that is a satisfactory explanation.
	2:06pm clarke: pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!!
	2:07pm Handy Haversack: It takes some brass!
	2:10pm clarke: nice pull, here!!
	2:11pm brycepunk1: EFD, I am loving the show today!
	2:12pm clarke: oh yessss!!
	2:12pm efd: @brycepunk1 Thank you!
	2:14pm poptone: EFD thanks for the Mutants track. There was a change for band members for the Todd-o-phonic interview on this Saturday's show. Original band member/guitarist Brendan Earley will be interviewed. Looking forward to some great stories including how they opened for the Cramps at the Napa State Mental Hospital in '78 and more!
	2:14pm efd: oh, thanks for the update (pop)tone! :)
	2:15pm Figgsrock: Oh this dB’s album is my favorite. (I know it’s a minority opinion, but it came out my first year of college and was the first one I heard.)
	2:15pm clarke: even though it is not top of my list, Figgs - it is still f'n fantastic!!
	2:17pm clarke: true, about gene holder on guitar, but the jury is still out on who played the bass on Never Say When.
	2:17pm Hoboken Jack: Paris Avenue is pretty solid too!
	2:17pm clarke: i contend it is gene.
	2:18pm prudy: Lakeville near Rhode Island border...
	2:19pm Handy Haversack: dB's are Artist of the Week on Wake this Wake week.
	2:22pm prof.fuzz: SMAH!!!
	2:22pm clarke: too short of a week for dB's =- should be MONTH
	2:22pm Hoboken Jack: Oh sure, the dB's only get 60% of a week. They never could win!
	2:22pm Handy Haversack: The courtneynoir SMAH! I am now fully mediated for another week. And as social as I'm likely to get.
	2:22pm clarke: SMAH!!!!!!
	2:22pm Robm: Hello fellow funksters
	2:23pm clarke: as far as i am concerned, the SMAH is the best thing about social media!!
	2:25pm courtneynoir: dang I missed the CNSMAH - stupid meetings
	2:26pm tim from washington: Sheeeeeit!!!!! I stepped away and missed the SMAH.
	2:26pm Handy Haversack: Nice, the 40 Watt. Site of my greatest regret!
	2:26pm clarke: noooo!! say it ain't so!!
	2:26pm clarke: why so, Handy?? one of me fave venues in the world!!
	2:27pm drr: Hey y'all. Handy, what's your greatest regret?
	2:27pm clarke: dave!!! howdy!
	2:28pm prof.fuzz: What is Handy's greatest regret?" is the security question for Handy's FB account!
	2:28pm Handy Haversack: clarke, my two ultimate favorite bands (kind of still true) were playing there together in high school, but it was an 18+ show, and I didn't have ID. We'd seen New Model Army in Atlanta, and they were then going to Athens and playing with Drivin' N' Cryin'. I was crushed.
	2:29pm clarke: dang. well, i drove all the way to san antonio from baton rouge and was four people short from getting into the sex pistols show.
	2:29pm clarke: (lucily, i had seen them two nights before in baton rouge, tho).
	2:30pm drr: Handy: you can't let your age stop you! Here's my 40 Watt story: davidrhoden.com... (I was underage and managed to get into the 40 Watt, mostly.)
	2:30pm clarke: =ludkily
	2:30pm Handy Haversack: Hurry Up already in my Bandcamp wishlist. Can't get me twice, efd! Double jeopardy! drr, I'm almost scared to read it!
	2:30pm drr: keep on spellin', clarke!
	2:31pm drr: The other part is: I got interviewed by the Washington Post about it. My parents were pretty mad but then they went and bought a copy of the paper (in Chattanooga).
	2:32pm Hoboken Jack: I'd like to book a show with Hurry and Hurry Up, maybe with the new Scott Anthony/Steve Goulding combo Hush Up opening.
	2:32pm Handy Haversack: Not a gang of plow boy mud wrestlers. I mean, I guess it's still cool ... That's great, drr!
	2:32pm clarke: feverish typing. Handy, probably b4 your time, but do you recall the Metroplex in ATL?? opened for Gun Club, there, one rainy night.
	2:33pm Figgsrock: Art Brut first album—one of the best debuts of the 21st century? I think so.
	2:34pm Handy Haversack: I think just before my time, clarke. Last show there was the year before I saw my first show.
	2:35pm clarke: figured. dang. wild place!!
	2:36pm clarke: it reminded me of the ThunderDome from madmax
	2:36pm efd: @Figgsrock your delirium has clearly receded!
	2:36pm SamTheRam: great set, Thank You Evan
	2:36pm Handy Haversack: For the record, I was trying to get my friends to drive to Athens for the show, but I had no leverage since I had no car and the least money of all of us.
	2:36pm Hoboken Jack: Handy, you can go see Drivin n Cryin for free next Wednesday at Woodbridge High School in central NJ.
	2:37pm efd: @Hoboken Jack say what now??????!?!?!?!????!?!?!?!??!!
	2:37pm clarke: it ain't the same jack
	2:37pm efd: @SamTheRam Thanks so much!!
	2:37pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: Just be sure to bring your high school ID to the show...
	2:37pm Handy Haversack: Damn, Jack! That's tempting!
	2:38pm Figgsrock: @EFD—I haven’t listened to that album in a long time, but those first few months it was out it was all I could talk about. And I’ve eaten and not thrown up—this is a positive sign!
	2:38pm clarke: i'm thinking Handy will agree that the EARLY D'n'C was much different and in my opinion much better.
	2:38pm efd: @Hoboken Jack I know the Bongos and Grip Weeds are playing there at the end of August, how did I overlook Drivin' & Cryin' on the schedule?!
	2:38pm prof.fuzz: improvement is improvement, figgs
	2:41pm SamTheRam: Athens to Liverpool, then Jimmy Rogers. I'm digging it
	2:41pm Handy Haversack: Definitely, clarke, though I sure as heck would not turn down a chance to see them. A highpoint was when Kevn Kinney ended up filling a slot for a booker friend at Trash Bar when K8's last band was playing there. He was so kind and generous and when he realized how I felt, he basically was like, "OK, [Handy], what do you want to hear?" Really wonderful night. And I got to tell him how much his music had and still did mean to me, which is a chance always worth taking.
	2:43pm clarke: kev'n def great dude!!!
	2:43pm drr: Handy, I lived 2 blocks down Grand from the Trash Bar, went there often. Missed that show though, unfortunately.
	2:45pm clarke: dave - what's your call on this "storm"??
	2:46pm Hoboken Jack: EFD I'll invite you on the FB
	2:46pm Handy Haversack: Oh, Lee was at Mama Tried, right, efd? That was cool. Oh, dang, drr! Yeah, Trash Bar was a great thing. Really miss it and Grand Victory (and whatever Grand Victory was before -- Bruar Falls?). Trash is some sort of yuppie boxing gym now, if you can believe it. Also: Taco Chulo closed. Clem's still going strong last I checked!
	2:47pm efd: @Jack cool, thanks! @Handy aw, I liked Taco Chulo when I would find myself in that area.
	2:48pm clarke: now, i'm hungry!!
	2:48pm efd: and yes, Lee was at MT on Sunday
	2:49pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, efd, we loved that place. Really nice people.
	2:52pm drr: Handy: wow, you really know the street. I',m sad to hear about Taco Chulo. What I miss is Tainted Lady: they used to let me dj sometimes. I saw a crazy fight at Grand Victory (or whatever it was called before it was Bruar Falls). Clem's will never die. Did you live near there too?
	2:53pm drr: clarke: fill me in on the storm.
	2:53pm prof.fuzz: that background vocal sounds like "steak, steak, chicken" to me...
	2:54pm clarke: there's a tropical "depression" (unformed) stuck out south of pensacola. probably going to flood streets, here. my street wants to flood with just a 'regular' rain.
	2:54pm efd: I think everyone's getting a little hungry
	2:55pm clarke: therefore, i put my vehic in the touro hirise garage
	2:56pm clarke: supposed to be days and days of rain.
	2:56pm Handy Haversack: drr: We have been in Greenpoint since 1999! But I had two close friends at Roebling and S. 2nd in the early aughts. Taco Chulo was just one of our favorite places, and K8's and other friends' bands played Trash and Grand Victory a lot, so that stretch is pretty close to our minds. Also, our vet is right over there!
	2:56pm Frank Zaatar: Great show, efd. I'm really impressed by this Winged Wheel track. Know anything about them?
	2:56pm efd: thanks for listening, all! See you next week - stay tuned for Scott!
	2:57pm Figgsrock: Oh nice way to end the show EFD.! Thanks for the company as I recover today!
	2:57pm clarke: and handy keeps a vet BUSY!!
	2:57pm efd: @Frank Z all I know is whatever's on their Bandcamp page!
	2:57pm tim from washington: Thanks, efd!
	2:57pm clarke: thnx EFD - he's dynamite!!!
	2:58pm prof.fuzz: and we've topped 100! thanks for the hot show EFD!
	2:58pm G: Hear it comin!
	2:58pm Frank Zaatar: Really working that drony post-rock thing.
	2:58pm Handy Haversack: Oh, dang! I was in the zone and thinking it would never end! Many thanks, efd! Take care, everyone!
	2:58pm Roberto: Sound of Summer horn riff = Social Media Airhorn, 1977-style.
	2:58pm drr: Handy: ok, gotcha! I miss NYC a lot, though I think the NYC I miss isn't really there anymore. My brother was on Eagle Street in Greenpoint so I was over there a lot.
	2:59pm Hoboken Jack: Instrumental section of Sounds of Summer sounds like opening credits of a 70s cop show when a cast member looks toward the camera. Thank you EFD!!
	2:59pm drr: clarke: thanks for the update. My g.f. is the weather watcher and she's outta town.

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from July 13, 2022

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!

	12:03pm G: @fuzz: Turn off the a/c so your grid doesn't collapse haha

	12:03pm efd: ah, a cold snap!
	12:04pm G: @efd: Is you show motto a comment on subbing Tuesday at 6am? lol
	12:04pm tim from washington: Stay cool, prof! Here's how I beat the heat. I carry a car door around with me wherever I go so that way I can roll down the window when I get too hot.
	12:04pm prof.fuzz: We're playing an outdoor fest in Durant OK on Saturday, where the temp is expected to be 105. @G. The grid will collapse one way or another, just like Blondie said. @PV. I'd rather feel your ac @efd: yes, it's sweater weather again. @tim: brilliant!
	12:05pm Handy Haversack: prof.fuzz, I'm doing light production work on the e-book version of Zhuangzi: A New Translation of the Sayings of Master Zhuang as Interpreted by Guo Xiang. So it's pretty hot up here, too!
	12:05pm PuraVida: @prof.fuzz Saw a photo of workers dumping wheelbarrels full of ice into the pool of a waterpark somewhere in Texas because it was SO hot
	12:05pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: the guo xiang commentary on zhuangzi always makes me hot!
	12:06pm prof.fuzz: @PV: Seems legit. Maybe we can get workers to dump buckets of ice cubes on us saturday evening...
	12:06pm yerfriendpaul: Hey efd, everyone!
	12:06pm luka: hi friends
	12:07pm Erella: Thank you for playing Young Marble Giants today! YAY
	12:08pm efd: @Erella my pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it!
	12:08pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and funky funky people. In a Zoom staff meeting, but paying attention nonetheless!
	12:09pm efd: Greetings to all listeners, from regions hot, cold, and inbetween! Thanks for tuning in this Wednesday afternoon (NJ time)!
	12:09pm BillyLundun: Great start to the show!! Happy to be listening!
	12:10pm Editor B: Holy heck I had utterly forgotten about this song ("The City") — I think i had it on a second-hand sampler record or something. It was not really my jam as a teen in the 1980s but now it sounds awesome.
	12:10pm Editor B: a long long long lonely taxi ride
	12:11pm Andres: Good aft, efd and all! Blanching at the mere thought of the temps some of you are facing. Stay cool, peeps!
	12:11pm Gerry from Miami: EFD, isn't this version of the Mark-Almond band's "In the City" a re-recording? The original came several years before this, I believe.
	12:11pm Hoboken Jack: I'm gathering that Mark-Almond is not Mark Almond. Hello EFD, Handy, Bag-Pipe, all.
	12:12pm HyperDose: This is something special. Yes it is.
	12:12pm Hoboken Jack: Yo HyperDose
	12:13pm efd: @Hoboken Jack that Mark Almond is Marc Almond.
	12:13pm Carmichael: And strangely, today's temp will only be about 88.
	12:13pm Gerry from Miami: @Editor B. The Almond you are thinking of spells his name MARC.
	12:13pm efd: @Gerry could be, I'm just playing it from the record I have
	12:13pm Gerry from Miami: @Editor B. The Almond you are thinking of spells his name MARC.
	12:14pm prof.fuzz: @carmichael: I've got a parka I'm not using today if you need it.
	12:14pm Carmichael: Mark-Almond played with John Mayall at one point.
	12:14pm Mister Dobalina: 80° by 7pm, supposedly.
	12:14pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack!
	12:16pm HyperDose: Hoboken Jack, it's about that time. Sausage and a meatball 💨🍕🍕
	12:18pm Hoboken Jack: Sometimes I feel like like a nut, sometimes I don't.
	12:18pm McGroovey: I'm just glad I don't have to write anymore vasectomy jokes. The oil change isn't done yet. When I had a driveway, I used up do them myself.
	12:19pm Hoboken Jack: How goes, McGroove
	12:24pm PKNY: Deep Kut KISS!
	12:24pm tim from washington: Yes! I forgot how faithful and great this cover is.
	12:26pm YETI BOB: Gene (or is it Paul?) really sounds like he's from Queens
	12:26pm G: The man in the back said Everyone Attack!
	12:27pm luka: greatest band ever. basically. right?
	12:27pm mrdonutsu: Already late to the party, dammit!!!
	12:28pm HyperDose: I'd know that syncopated shuffle pattern anywhere 😍
	12:28pm tim from washington: @Yeti Bob - yeah, it could have been Johnny Thunders with better production.
	12:28pm G: This is 1975? I remember it being at or near the top of the UK charts when I lived there in 72-73...
	12:28pm efd: playing this song in honor of the man who played that iconic beat, @HyperDose
	12:28pm efd: @G 1975 album released in the US
	12:29pm G: @efd: Like T Rex and Slade, Sweet were not as big here as there lol
	12:30pm prof.fuzz: such a great tune
	12:30pm HyperDose: Pagan Hides has to be the name of your Sweet cover band now, efd
	12:33pm Todd76Pct: Mick's pounding shuffle on "Into the Night" is an all-time fave!
	12:34pm Handy Haversack: I was thinking the Pagan Hide Thumpers would be a great tour partner for Fangboner this fall.
	12:35pm HyperDose: I'd attend that show horned helmet and cape adorned
	12:35pm Hoboken Jack: Joan Jett's "Crimson and Clover" was the first lyrical non gender switch I experienced, and it made me feel all funny inside.
	12:35pm tim from washington: @Handy - that tour sounds like it would end with a trail of lawsuits and band members in jail.
	12:36pm prof.fuzz: @tim: as any good rock and roll tour should...
	12:36pm Chris Crash: Hello Mr. Funk! This was the Fancy song I was talking about on Sunday. "I'm like a cake that wants to be baked! I'm like a pie made for hungry guys!" youtu.be...
	12:37pm Hoboken Jack: I was thinking 2nu was a lost Steven Wright single.
	12:38pm YETI BOB: I'm pretty sure n.i.t.a. is an abbrev for "Nature intended the abstract" - from the song lyrics
	12:39pm Beast of Boonton: Listening to the radio "in the good old days" is about 2 weeks ago :)
	12:39pm G: So this is the live accuplay list!
	12:39pm courtneynoir: @Chris I initially thought the Fancy that EFD started with last week was THAT Fancy going in a different direction
	12:40pm pgalub: Hey efd and everyone. JAAAAACK! Handy!
	12:41pm tim from washington: Green/Blue is playing at Gonerfest in the September. Looks like there's a free streaming option for those unable to attend in person.
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: courtneynoir: Same! Hey, Pete!
	12:41pm courtneynoir: I've been all over this album lately and am stoked to see them at Gonerfest
	12:44pm slugluv1313: greetings, EFD! Funksters! lurking about, getting ready to head on out 😺😺 thank you for Ballroom Blitz! 🖤🖤🖤 super bittersweet memories of dancing to this with Wm. Berger at a party here in Hoboken -- 1980s, his Hip-Bone/Uncle Wiggly days? (and Hoboken's pre-gentrified Low-Life Scum days!)
	12:47pm Mister Dobalina: EFD & the place to be!
	12:47pm tim from washington: You can't beat the motorik beat.
	12:48pm Analog Nights: NEU groove forever
	12:48pm Andres: Digging this set of new sounds!
	12:49pm prof.fuzz: EFD is gonna cost me some more money... Double Wig!!!
	12:49pm slugluv1313: @tim from washington, @Yeti Bob -- somewhere in the back of my senile old brain, i am recalling that Johnny Thunders did cover Then He Kissed Me -- ??
	12:51pm tim from washington: @slugluv - I think you're right!
	12:52pm tim from washington: Aha - Bardo Pond related!
	12:53pm luka: guitars so crunchy
	12:53pm HyperDose: Courtney Love boutta sue somebody
	12:54pm Mister Dobalina: Can't believe it, the elephant heart plum tree downstairs from my building is finally fruiting. So exciting!
	12:56pm Figgsrock: The only plus of being sick with food poisoning today was being able to hear your first break in full EFD, since I didn’t have my 12:30 editorial meeting. I’m listening while on the couch, which is a first for me I believe.
	12:56pm tim from washington: @HyperDose - Is this what COurtney Love/Hole sounds like? I have successully avoided knowing what they sound like.
	12:56pm efd: @Figgsrock oh no! Something you ate while at the office yesterday? Hope it passes, so to speak, quickly.
	12:57pm Chris Crash: *Courtney I thought the same thing!
	12:58pm Handy Haversack: Did Rex discover this band? Sidestepping Dave completely? MOMMA!
	12:59pm HyperDose: @Tim Dare I say Hole is heavier. I'm just assuming she's the executor of the Cobain estate. momma is SUCH a good band
	1:00pm Matt Fiveash: "Momma"- the Mell Lazarus spelling. Nice
	1:00pm Matt Fiveash: Doh! Jinx!
	1:00pm Andres: 100% great set!
	1:00pm Figgsrock: @efd No, I believe it was my dinner from last night. Especially waking up at 3am to um…deal with it.
	1:01pm ChukAmok: Anyone else going to Gonerfest this year?
	1:01pm slugluv1313: @tim -- YES! on So Alone with Patti Palladin -- "She always looks like/She's Born to Lose" 🖤🖤🖤 (gosh, HOW could i space out on this!)
	1:01pm Hoboken Jack: Say MOMMA
	1:02pm slugluv1313: @Figgsrock -- feel better soon!
	1:03pm steveo: I'm on a bus! The WiFi actually works! Sounding good. Mama.
	1:05pm clarke: great to hear adny's voice, again!!
	1:06pm tim from washington: Sounds like the Dolls Puss'n'Boots.
	1:06pm tim from washington: Yes! You're right Sluguv. Thanks for confirming.
	1:06pm slugluv1313: YES! Personality Crisis vibes
	1:07pm slugluv1313: @tim -- anytime!
	1:08pm clarke: a semi-two-fer
	1:11pm courtneynoir: @Chuk ME! We bailed on Gonerfest last year cos COVID numbers were too high for comfort so didn't get to see Reigning Sound one last time. At least we get Compulsive Gamblers this year I guess
	1:12pm prof.fuzz: hey clarke!

	1:12pm clarke: the NaZZZZZ

	1:14pm Figgsrock: Wow, haven’t heard this Nazareth track in a lonnnnnng time.
	1:14pm Handy Haversack: MOMMA MOMMA please! I think I holiday a little differently.
	1:15pm clarke: sorry i'm late - i put my car up in a parking garage, as storms approach (street floods), and walked back - WHEW!!
	1:15pm prof.fuzz: this song takes me WAY back...
	1:16pm efd: @clarke Bet you lost five pounds just from that walk!
	1:17pm prof.fuzz: i never actively sought out nazareth, but "holiday" was all over the radio when i was in high school. really good tune.
	1:17pm clarke: only a few miles, but, hope i did!! ha ha.
	1:18pm ChukAmok: courtneynoir: Excellent! Bailed last year for the same reason. Super psyched to see Tyvek again!
	1:18pm clarke: i might go to Goner, as well.
	1:20pm ChukAmok: Awesome, clarke! Got my pass on Monday.
	1:21pm tim from washington: Looks like theirs a ton of Australian bands at Goner this year.
	1:21pm clarke: a FUNKy cleopatra?
	1:21pm tim from washington: And Negative Approach!
	1:21pm efd: I don't write the songs, I just play 'em!
	1:22pm clarke: i'm not so sure...
	1:23pm clarke: did you sleep all yesterday afternoon, EFD??
	1:23pm Ciggy: Hi @EFD. A couple of days ago, Stephen King tweeted he was on a Power Pop binge: "Power Pop day at my house: Nick Lowe, Dave Edmunds, and a whole box of Raspberries. With some Eric Carmen solo stuff on the side." Thought of you.
	1:24pm Chris Crash: Handcuffs song is fantastic
	1:25pm clarke: and the Romantics - brad elvis.
	1:25pm clarke: riiiight.
	1:25pm tim from washington: For some reason I thought that Clem Burke was on the stool for the Romantics.
	1:26pm clarke: he looks and plays a LOT like clem
	1:26pm Handy Haversack: efd saw me on Sunday!
	1:27pm clarke: and there will be four more weeks of winter!!
	1:27pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): He felt bad for Love Hurts
	1:28pm prof.fuzz: @clarke: send those four weeks of winter our way!
	1:28pm clarke: then the parka would make sense!
	1:31pm clarke: i know tis rough, today, FuZZZ, up and out there!
	1:32pm prof.fuzz: We're sitting at 99 degrees at the moment... Only 27% humidity, so that's a "plus."
	1:32pm Hoboken Jack: I heart Lithics
	1:32pm Figgsrock: I’ll admit EFD, the “If you will, and I will” comments made me double over I’m laughter. I must be sick! Ha!
	1:33pm clarke: yes, but supposed to hit 104 (as per weather channel)!!
	1:33pm efd: can't believe Paul Bruno got the drop on me with this new Lithics single!
	1:33pm ChukAmok: Humidity is at 60% here. Praying for a downpour. My garden needs it!
	1:34pm clarke: stay in and rock!!
	1:34pm prof.fuzz: @clarke: Yup. And as I noted earlier, it's supposed to be 105 in Durant OK on Sat, where we're playing an outdoor festival with a 6:15 set time. Oh boy!
	1:34pm ChukAmok: This new Lithics is super good. Can't believe I missed out on the lathe. :(
	1:34pm Hoboken Jack: How's it going, Clarke?
	1:34pm efd: @tim from washington Clem was playing with the Romantics for a time, he was with them when they played Joe Belock's show in the... early 2000s?
	1:34pm Figgsrock: Or in laughter, if you will.
	1:35pm clarke: lordy!!! FuZZ might turn to Fizz!!!
	1:36pm Handy Haversack: 90F here, and I have a softball game in North Meadow in Central Park in a few hours. Also known as the location in Manhattan farthest from a bar.
	1:36pm prof.fuzz: Puddle of Fuzz...
	1:36pm efd: @Figgsrock I'll try not to be funny for the rest of the show, though in my defense I wasn't really trying to be funny! :)
	1:36pm clarke: jack, there's a storm stuck out in the gulf about to pkay havoc with flooding (probably), but other than that: tracking away in me backhouse bungalow!!
	1:36pm steveo: Hot air can hold a lot of moisture
	1:38pm clarke: it ain't lookin' great steveo!
	1:38pm tim from washington: Blue Orchids - the fall related band?
	1:38pm prof.fuzz: @Tim: Yes. Martin Brameh.
	1:39pm tim from washington: @efd - that's must be what I was thinking of re: Clem Burke. @Handy - why must the fates plot against you so?!?!
	1:39pm clarke: Fuzz - ya'll got some airplay yesterday mawnin'!!
	1:39pm efd: @tim Yes! New stuff from them, believe it or not!
	1:40pm prof.fuzz: @clarke: Doh! Missed that. Have to dredge the archives.
	1:40pm clarke: Handy - there's this concept called...ice chests (or in the northern vernacular: coolers).
	1:41pm clarke: EFD played Owl song during a fill-in for Wake! sounded great!
	1:41pm prof.fuzz: @clarke: found it! EFD know's I'm not awake at that hour!!! Thanks!
	1:42pm clarke: i rarely am - but it sure woke me up!!
	1:43pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello all, Sorry I missed the Mama Tried meetup, especially given all the FMU royalty attending. Instead I got the privilege of seeing the Met's shutout for 10 innings....Ughhh!
	1:43pm Chris Crash: God gell yeah, love this Republica track. Haven't thought about it in forever!
	1:43pm prof.fuzz: That Owl will do that to you, and worse. Just ask Full Metal Monkey...
	1:43pm Figgsrock: Republica? Have I been transported back to 1996?
	1:44pm toorushed: Great set. Loved The Handcuffs particularly.
	1:44pm clarke: ouch, Kevin. still, a good year for the mets??
	1:44pm efd: @Figgsrock you must be delirious!
	1:45pm Figgsrock: I should add that I LOVE this Republica song. Always sounds great in a car.
	1:45pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Republica. One of the luckiest bands in the world. One hit wonder that ends up being played before every sports match in the world as teams run out onto the field/ice/pitch/etc.
	1:45pm clarke: hopefully a transporter would act a little more responsibly, Figgs!!
	1:46pm RevWaldo: I remember this car commerical 😎
	1:46pm cl@m_digger: They don’t make them like this anymore
	1:46pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Republica gets paid by pretty much every team for each of their games.
	1:46pm efd: best of luck to all bands
	1:47pm prof.fuzz: republica = #lifegoals
	1:47pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): I like Republica! I wish I were as lucky!
	1:47pm clarke: i don't think this song is about sports.
	1:47pm Andres: Feeling pumped up!!
	1:48pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): Best of luck to all bands... except for goddamned Dave Matthews Band. They're lucky for all of the wrong reasons. But... that's just me. ;)
	1:49pm prof.fuzz: we did manage to get a song on a "food and travel show" aired on an espn major sportball conference ntetwork. i love the idea of one of our dirtiest songs being broadcast into the homes of millions of unsuspecting sportball fans across the american south... but damn, good on republica.
	1:49pm clarke: their luck ran out, long ago jonny!
	1:49pm Figgsrock: @EFD I am less delirious than the Prince song, but more delirious than the Hanoi Rocks song.
	1:49pm prof.fuzz: not at bad as the luck of the unsuspecting boat passengers in chicago...
	1:50pm tim from washington: @Listener Jonny - And they intentionally polluted the Chicago River!
	1:50pm prof.fuzz: @tim: this is why history matters.
	1:50pm tim from washington: We're on the same page again, prof!
	1:50pm clarke: at least that started the, er, downslide, Fuzz
	1:51pm efd: agree, DMB are exempted from my statement
	1:51pm prof.fuzz: great minds...
	1:52pm clarke: is chick corea in murder hornetz???
	1:52pm tim from washington: Man, it's bad enough to get tour bus sludge dumped on you but to have it come from the Dave Mattacks tour bus? Triflin!
	1:57pm Figgsrock: Glad to hear we’ll hear more from Milano Undiscovered. That track was excellent.
	1:57pm Gerry from Miami: Evan, why no credit to the horn players on the murder hornets cut? I got serious Zappa, Snarky Puppy and other jazz-oriented vibes from them. You only announced that the hornetz were a bassist and a guitarist.
	1:58pm tim from washington: C'mon social media air horn!
	1:58pm clarke: with courtney's approval??
	1:58pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Gerry from Miami: It's a well-known fact that efd is a hornist.
	1:59pm Handy Haversack: A murder hornist, Woods?
	1:59pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Ha!
	2:04pm efd: @tim I rarely do the SMAH during the same mic break when I announce upcoming specials
	2:05pm tim from washington: Duly noted, efd.
	2:05pm clarke: the glimpse behind the curtain!!
	2:05pm efd: @Gerry mainly because a) those are the two core members, and b) I didn't click the little "more" link to expand the description of the band or I would have seen two other people mentioned. I hope that is a satisfactory explanation.
	2:06pm clarke: pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!!
	2:07pm Handy Haversack: It takes some brass!
	2:10pm clarke: nice pull, here!!
	2:11pm brycepunk1: EFD, I am loving the show today!
	2:12pm clarke: oh yessss!!
	2:12pm efd: @brycepunk1 Thank you!
	2:14pm poptone: EFD thanks for the Mutants track. There was a change for band members for the Todd-o-phonic interview on this Saturday's show. Original band member/guitarist Brendan Earley will be interviewed. Looking forward to some great stories including how they opened for the Cramps at the Napa State Mental Hospital in '78 and more!
	2:14pm efd: oh, thanks for the update (pop)tone! :)
	2:15pm Figgsrock: Oh this dB’s album is my favorite. (I know it’s a minority opinion, but it came out my first year of college and was the first one I heard.)
	2:15pm clarke: even though it is not top of my list, Figgs - it is still f'n fantastic!!
	2:17pm clarke: true, about gene holder on guitar, but the jury is still out on who played the bass on Never Say When.
	2:17pm Hoboken Jack: Paris Avenue is pretty solid too!
	2:17pm clarke: i contend it is gene.
	2:18pm prudy: Lakeville near Rhode Island border...
	2:19pm Handy Haversack: dB's are Artist of the Week on Wake this Wake week.
	2:22pm prof.fuzz: SMAH!!!
	2:22pm clarke: too short of a week for dB's =- should be MONTH
	2:22pm Hoboken Jack: Oh sure, the dB's only get 60% of a week. They never could win!
	2:22pm Handy Haversack: The courtneynoir SMAH! I am now fully mediated for another week. And as social as I'm likely to get.
	2:22pm clarke: SMAH!!!!!!
	2:22pm Robm: Hello fellow funksters
	2:23pm clarke: as far as i am concerned, the SMAH is the best thing about social media!!
	2:25pm courtneynoir: dang I missed the CNSMAH - stupid meetings
	2:26pm tim from washington: Sheeeeeit!!!!! I stepped away and missed the SMAH.
	2:26pm Handy Haversack: Nice, the 40 Watt. Site of my greatest regret!
	2:26pm clarke: noooo!! say it ain't so!!
	2:26pm clarke: why so, Handy?? one of me fave venues in the world!!
	2:27pm drr: Hey y'all. Handy, what's your greatest regret?
	2:27pm clarke: dave!!! howdy!
	2:28pm prof.fuzz: What is Handy's greatest regret?" is the security question for Handy's FB account!
	2:28pm Handy Haversack: clarke, my two ultimate favorite bands (kind of still true) were playing there together in high school, but it was an 18+ show, and I didn't have ID. We'd seen New Model Army in Atlanta, and they were then going to Athens and playing with Drivin' N' Cryin'. I was crushed.
	2:29pm clarke: dang. well, i drove all the way to san antonio from baton rouge and was four people short from getting into the sex pistols show.
	2:29pm clarke: (lucily, i had seen them two nights before in baton rouge, tho).
	2:30pm drr: Handy: you can't let your age stop you! Here's my 40 Watt story: davidrhoden.com... (I was underage and managed to get into the 40 Watt, mostly.)
	2:30pm clarke: =ludkily
	2:30pm Handy Haversack: Hurry Up already in my Bandcamp wishlist. Can't get me twice, efd! Double jeopardy! drr, I'm almost scared to read it!
	2:30pm drr: keep on spellin', clarke!
	2:31pm drr: The other part is: I got interviewed by the Washington Post about it. My parents were pretty mad but then they went and bought a copy of the paper (in Chattanooga).
	2:32pm Hoboken Jack: I'd like to book a show with Hurry and Hurry Up, maybe with the new Scott Anthony/Steve Goulding combo Hush Up opening.
	2:32pm Handy Haversack: Not a gang of plow boy mud wrestlers. I mean, I guess it's still cool ... That's great, drr!
	2:32pm clarke: feverish typing. Handy, probably b4 your time, but do you recall the Metroplex in ATL?? opened for Gun Club, there, one rainy night.
	2:33pm Figgsrock: Art Brut first album—one of the best debuts of the 21st century? I think so.
	2:34pm Handy Haversack: I think just before my time, clarke. Last show there was the year before I saw my first show.
	2:35pm clarke: figured. dang. wild place!!
	2:36pm clarke: it reminded me of the ThunderDome from madmax
	2:36pm efd: @Figgsrock your delirium has clearly receded!
	2:36pm SamTheRam: great set, Thank You Evan
	2:36pm Handy Haversack: For the record, I was trying to get my friends to drive to Athens for the show, but I had no leverage since I had no car and the least money of all of us.
	2:36pm Hoboken Jack: Handy, you can go see Drivin n Cryin for free next Wednesday at Woodbridge High School in central NJ.
	2:37pm efd: @Hoboken Jack say what now??????!?!?!?!????!?!?!?!??!!
	2:37pm clarke: it ain't the same jack
	2:37pm efd: @SamTheRam Thanks so much!!
	2:37pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: Just be sure to bring your high school ID to the show...
	2:37pm Handy Haversack: Damn, Jack! That's tempting!
	2:38pm Figgsrock: @EFD—I haven’t listened to that album in a long time, but those first few months it was out it was all I could talk about. And I’ve eaten and not thrown up—this is a positive sign!
	2:38pm clarke: i'm thinking Handy will agree that the EARLY D'n'C was much different and in my opinion much better.
	2:38pm efd: @Hoboken Jack I know the Bongos and Grip Weeds are playing there at the end of August, how did I overlook Drivin' & Cryin' on the schedule?!
	2:38pm prof.fuzz: improvement is improvement, figgs
	2:41pm SamTheRam: Athens to Liverpool, then Jimmy Rogers. I'm digging it
	2:41pm Handy Haversack: Definitely, clarke, though I sure as heck would not turn down a chance to see them. A highpoint was when Kevn Kinney ended up filling a slot for a booker friend at Trash Bar when K8's last band was playing there. He was so kind and generous and when he realized how I felt, he basically was like, "OK, [Handy], what do you want to hear?" Really wonderful night. And I got to tell him how much his music had and still did mean to me, which is a chance always worth taking.
	2:43pm clarke: kev'n def great dude!!!
	2:43pm drr: Handy, I lived 2 blocks down Grand from the Trash Bar, went there often. Missed that show though, unfortunately.
	2:45pm clarke: dave - what's your call on this "storm"??
	2:46pm Hoboken Jack: EFD I'll invite you on the FB
	2:46pm Handy Haversack: Oh, Lee was at Mama Tried, right, efd? That was cool. Oh, dang, drr! Yeah, Trash Bar was a great thing. Really miss it and Grand Victory (and whatever Grand Victory was before -- Bruar Falls?). Trash is some sort of yuppie boxing gym now, if you can believe it. Also: Taco Chulo closed. Clem's still going strong last I checked!
	2:47pm efd: @Jack cool, thanks! @Handy aw, I liked Taco Chulo when I would find myself in that area.
	2:48pm clarke: now, i'm hungry!!
	2:48pm efd: and yes, Lee was at MT on Sunday
	2:49pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, efd, we loved that place. Really nice people.
	2:52pm drr: Handy: wow, you really know the street. I',m sad to hear about Taco Chulo. What I miss is Tainted Lady: they used to let me dj sometimes. I saw a crazy fight at Grand Victory (or whatever it was called before it was Bruar Falls). Clem's will never die. Did you live near there too?
	2:53pm drr: clarke: fill me in on the storm.
	2:53pm prof.fuzz: that background vocal sounds like "steak, steak, chicken" to me...
	2:54pm clarke: there's a tropical "depression" (unformed) stuck out south of pensacola. probably going to flood streets, here. my street wants to flood with just a 'regular' rain.
	2:54pm efd: I think everyone's getting a little hungry
	2:55pm clarke: therefore, i put my vehic in the touro hirise garage
	2:56pm clarke: supposed to be days and days of rain.
	2:56pm Handy Haversack: drr: We have been in Greenpoint since 1999! But I had two close friends at Roebling and S. 2nd in the early aughts. Taco Chulo was just one of our favorite places, and K8's and other friends' bands played Trash and Grand Victory a lot, so that stretch is pretty close to our minds. Also, our vet is right over there!
	2:56pm Frank Zaatar: Great show, efd. I'm really impressed by this Winged Wheel track. Know anything about them?
	2:56pm efd: thanks for listening, all! See you next week - stay tuned for Scott!
	2:57pm Figgsrock: Oh nice way to end the show EFD.! Thanks for the company as I recover today!
	2:57pm clarke: and handy keeps a vet BUSY!!
	2:57pm efd: @Frank Z all I know is whatever's on their Bandcamp page!
	2:57pm tim from washington: Thanks, efd!
	2:57pm clarke: thnx EFD - he's dynamite!!!
	2:58pm prof.fuzz: and we've topped 100! thanks for the hot show EFD!
	2:58pm G: Hear it comin!
	2:58pm Frank Zaatar: Really working that drony post-rock thing.
	2:58pm Handy Haversack: Oh, dang! I was in the zone and thinking it would never end! Many thanks, efd! Take care, everyone!
	2:58pm Roberto: Sound of Summer horn riff = Social Media Airhorn, 1977-style.
	2:58pm drr: Handy: ok, gotcha! I miss NYC a lot, though I think the NYC I miss isn't really there anymore. My brother was on Eagle Street in Greenpoint so I was over there a lot.
	2:59pm Hoboken Jack: Instrumental section of Sounds of Summer sounds like opening credits of a 70s cop show when a cast member looks toward the camera. Thank you EFD!!
	2:59pm drr: clarke: thanks for the update. My g.f. is the weather watcher and she's outta town.
