	12:12pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:11 you have helped all of us, man - we send love!!
	12:14pm clarke: ↳ Song: "hey, i'm going down" by "les bellas" not the plimsouls.
	12:15pm clarke: oops wrong tune. still not plims.
	12:15pm Mike Sin: ↳ Song: "hey, i'm going down" by "les bellas" Righteous!
	12:15pm efd: ↳ clarke @12:15 no and no!

	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Beast of Boonton @12:21 "he speaks for all of us"
	12:22pm Hugh: Greets all. I'm packing your (somebody's) Xmas presents.
	12:22pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ JaydiumCrass @12:04 Sorry, just posted my comment before I saw yours. My bad.
	12:22pm prof.fuzz: ↳ tim @12:22 i will never not sing this song as "all white cow"...
	12:22pm moniker lou wink’ski: I’d like Cory Daye/Dr Buzzards Savannah Band & or Kid Creole to be audibly playing either as the apocalypse ensues or my days come to an end.
	12:23pm Joe B: greetings efd and everyone
	12:23pm paddy in matawan: big jilm rollin' and a'wheelin stealin' and dealin'

	12:25pm clarke: ↳ tim @12:25 and when they ride their machines
	12:25pm bk845: ↳ Joe B @12:23 Hail Joe B!
	12:25pm luka: ↳ Song: "these boots are made for walkin'" by "the fast" guitar is makin the same exact sound as in “clues” by robert palmer that is wild
	12:26pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:21 I don't know it by the title but I'm sure I'll recogize it immediately upon hearing it.
	12:26pm clarke: ↳ luka @12:25 good tune!
	12:26pm tim: Hey Joe!
	12:26pm moniker lou wink’ski: Hey, was that the original z”clapping song” by Shirley Ellis? Or perhaps one of the many covers…Belle Stars?
	12:26pm efd: jeez, two records in a row with no dead space between tracks!
	12:27pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ tim @12:26 open.spotify.com...
	12:27pm clarke: he's on a roll!
	12:27pm northguineahills: @efd: I start working jan 8th, so i'm moving up to nyc after new years. (finally escaping florida)
	12:28pm prof.fuzz: ↳ northguineahills @12:27 i will never tire of hearing this news!
	12:28pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:27 Grazi!
	12:28pm oceanbeachjam: ↳ Song: "i am, i am" by "april wine" What a great song!
	12:28pm efd: ↳ northguineahills @12:27 yay!
	12:29pm luka: ↳ clarke @12:26 indeed!
	12:29pm love2laf: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:28 Me neither! And loved the album, as did hubby.
	12:29pm efd: ↳ oceanbeachjam @12:28 truly.
	12:29pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:27 soon you'll be ensconced in the canyons of manhatten!!
	12:29pm tim: ↳ Song: "i am, i am" by "april wine" This is kick ass! Was this from 2006 or is that the year this particular album was released on UC.
	12:29pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "i am, i am" by "april wine" damn, I only know their 2 US radio hits. need to investigate further ...
	12:29pm love2laf: ↳ Song: "i am, i am" by "april wine" Ah cheers again efd.
	12:29pm prof.fuzz: ↳ love2laf @12:29 thank you and hubby!
	12:30pm clarke: ↳ Song: "i am, i am" by "april wine" again, EFD proves me wr-wr-wrong
	12:31pm Late Bloomer: I never knew April wine was this cool. I think I judged the cover, and blew it off. Glad I heard that one
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ Late Bloomer @12:31 same
	12:32pm northguineahills: ↳ clarke @12:29 can't wait. now to figure out where to live until i have a few paychecks under my belt.
	12:33pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:32 yipe. no ideas, there.
	12:33pm FletcherNYC: Was just talking about Dean Rispler last night with a coworker… What a legend
	12:34pm northguineahills: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:22 kamadhenu, the sacred white cow from hindu mythology?
	12:34pm tim: ↳ Song: "these boots are made for walkin'" by "the fast" That Fast cut was great!
	12:34pm Steve from Stag!: Now just hang on a minute there. Comparing April Wine to the Petrols? No. Just no.
	12:35pm prof.fuzz: ↳ northguineahills @12:34 undoubtedly
	12:35pm clarke: indubitably!
	12:36pm paddy in matawan: buenos tardes, amigos
	12:37pm Mike Sin: re: The Fast Such an early "parody" cover! Those types of things really got popular in the 1990s... I'm guessing "Recca" records could not afford flour-color printing.
	12:37pm Barefoot Jimmy G: EFD, just bought a signed copy of The Fast record on eBay. Thanks!
	12:37pm Mike Sin: ↳ Mike Sin @12:37 or "four color printing"
	12:38pm Barefoot Jimmy G: ↳ Mike Sin @12:37 "Flour" is better!
	12:38pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Mike Sin @12:37 i kinda like the idea of "flour-color" printing. our team colors are whole-wheat and ketchup.
	12:39pm clarke: that first Liminanas record is a perfect album.
	12:40pm Steve from Stag!: Listening...
	12:40pm northguineahills: ↳ clarke @12:35 🤣
	12:40pm winston legthigh: hello efd and the funky bunch. harke clarke!
	12:40pm clarke: WIN!!! early today - fab!!
	12:41pm slocker: Lotta dancing around the explanation! I catch what you are putting down.
	12:42pm clarke: EFD - doing the lord's work. (the lord of ROCK!_)
	12:42pm northguineahills: huh, i'm getting a spam call from jersey city....
	12:42pm winston legthigh: the worm is mine.
	12:42pm efd: ↳ Song: "sheila" by "april wine" to be 100% clear, I love this song! My intention was positive!
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:42 the calls are coming from inside the house!
	12:43pm T281: My Sharona
	12:43pm clarke: ↳ efd @12:42 yeah = what's not to like??
	12:43pm tim: ↳ northguineahills @12:42 Spammers are just calling to welcome you back.
	12:43pm clarke: ↳ tim @12:43 lol
	12:43pm Steve from Stag!: There's definitely an echo in the vocal range and style - I'll grant you that. But TPE just didn't write songs that were this traditional - and certainly didn't write songs with girls names in 'em. But I'm belaboring the point. At the end of the day I'm totally digging it, and bemused by the fact.
	12:44pm northguineahills: ↳ tim @12:43 well it does feel like home... ;)
	12:44pm tim: ↳ northguineahills @12:44 Nice!
	12:45pm clarke: the next spammer that calls - ask him for a room to let.
	12:45pm poptone: wow, I hear some Petrols on the April Wine track. thought it may be a Tommy Roe cover, but this is mo' better. RIP Myles.
	12:45pm northguineahills: when i was applying to jobs in nyc, it was complicated since 60% of the spam I get is from the nyc area, so, I'd keep on answering all of the spam....
	12:45pm clarke: lotta can con!
	12:46pm northguineahills: ↳ clarke @12:45 might as get some benefit from interrupting my day!
	12:46pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:46 unless it is in india
	12:47pm efd: ↳ Steve from Stag! @12:43 fair enough!
	12:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "frozen strawberries" by "seablite" huh, i know seabrite, but not seablite, and they sound very similar....new to me and digdug!
	12:48pm winston legthigh: ↳ northguineahills @12:45 now you have an extended car warranty and a fortune waiting for you in somalia.
	12:48pm clarke: ha ha ha
	12:48pm northguineahills: ↳ winston legthigh @12:48 so it DOES mean i have a car, i knew it!
	12:49pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:48 and larger breasts.
	12:50pm Tornado: Maybe the sound of the guitars a bit but I'm hearing what sounds like the Knack redoing a subpar Beatlesque version of You Can't Do That. Overall it's not up to That Petrol Emotion standards.
	12:51pm clarke: subpar beatles - my life story.
	12:52pm egould: ↳ Song: "sheila" by "april wine" Pretty good song, but the drummer ruined it right at the very end.
	12:52pm JaydiumCrass: ↳ Song: "across the line" by "feeling figures" That this is new is a gobsmack.
	12:52pm clarke: ↳ Song: "across the line" by "feeling figures" that wuz kule.
	12:53pm JaydiumCrass: Sorry, meant the Sloppy Heads track.
	12:54pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "possession" by "sloppy heads" Caught a game but abbreviated set from them a few weeks back at a place that forgot to have mics or a PA available for the band they booked. Still, Sloppy Heads did a great psych jam.
	12:54pm egould: ↳ northguineahills @12:48 The drummer in seablite is the guitarist/singer in Chime School. Chime School is very jangly and good as well.
	12:55pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:54 OVER THE LINE!!
	12:56pm winston legthigh: handy!
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ egould @12:54 just subscribed to Chime School on your say-so!
	12:57pm Handy Haversack: ↳ winston legthigh @12:56 Hey, winston. How goes?
	12:57pm Hoboken Jack: Hi there EFD, Joe, NGH, Clarke, Tim, Prof, Mike Sin, NYCMnerd, love2laf, Krys, everyone! I don't want to be a troublemaker but now that I think of it, Sign of the Gypsy Queen and The Bedazzler are basically the same song. 😂
	12:57pm clarke: jaaaaack!!! double jeopardy!
	12:58pm love2laf: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:57 G'afternoon Jack, good to see you.
	12:58pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:54 Howdy Handy!
	12:58pm Joe B: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:57 ha ha!
	1:00pm JaydiumCrass: Owdy, Handy!
	1:00pm Steve from Stag!: ↳ Tornado @12:50 Exactly. Thank you.
	1:00pm tim: Hey Jack!
	1:00pm northguineahills: ↳ clarke @12:49 giggity!
	1:01pm northguineahills: ↳ egould @12:54 cool!
	1:01pm clarke: :::RIP TopTen!!!
	1:01pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack.
	1:01pm northguineahills: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:57 JACK!
	1:01pm Bob Dylan: Fortunately, I'll never die. Did you hear that, Ken?
	1:01pm clarke: wow! what a first live show!
	1:02pm slocker: Good memory.
	1:02pm Steve from Stag!: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:57 Jack - honest to god, we hadn't heard that song, until I heard it on one of EFD's comp CDs I got in a fundraiser. YOU ARE TOTALLY RIGHT.
	1:03pm listener 126464: Good afternoon, efd, everyone! I was at that Left Banke show.
	1:03pm winston legthigh: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:57 dealing with irritating contractors but it's almost over. hope all is well in the big city which will be plus ngh soon!
	1:04pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:03 you need irriGATING contractors!!
	1:04pm listener 126464: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:57 Cheers, Jack!
	1:05pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:54 doh! i've played that venue (or one just like it)...
	1:05pm clarke: ↳ Song: "master race rock" by "the dictators" in MY top ten!!
	1:05pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:04 he's the only good one.
	1:06pm clarke: monopoly.
	1:06pm tim: ↳ Song: "master race rock" by "the dictators" I definitely need this Norton comp. So good! RIP Top Ten!
	1:07pm jerry kooseman jr: i was at the left bank show too!HDM introduced me to his parents who were living in nearby CO OP City!
	1:08pm clarke: isn't Kempfner the one whose photo is a weenie-roast in bed, on the Go Girl Crazy album - one of the greatest photos EVER!
	1:09pm Joe B: ↳ tim @1:06 essential!
	1:09pm tim: TWO TUB MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	1:10pm clarke: ↳ clarke @1:08 -f
	1:12pm efd: ↳ Song: "two tub man" by "the dictators" so many great lines in this song
	1:12pm clarke: not to mention guitar lines!
	1:13pm clarke: and bass line!
	1:13pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ listener 126464 @1:04 Hi 126464! Nice comic today!
	1:13pm pwrmnstr: SO MUCH BUTT IN THIS ROCK
	1:14pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Steve from Stag! @1:02 Hahahaha. Love you guys!!
	1:14pm tim: Man, I know if I grew up in the same neighborhood at the same time as these guys, we would be fast friends. Wrestling, Mad Magazine, rock'n'roll and beer. That's in my DNA.
	1:15pm tim: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:13 Probably the best description of the Dictators I've ever seen.
	1:16pm tim: ↳ efd @1:12 The one liners in Two Tub Man never fail to crack me up. The Jackie O line is my favorite.
	1:16pm clarke: i screw who i screw
	1:19pm clarke: DANG - i'm getting news that Denny Laine has passed away.
	1:20pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:19 yeah, I saw that yesterday
	1:20pm tim: There was a guy around Champaign who claimed he was in the Dictators. I'm dubious. I've never found proof. He was of the right age and location for the time. His name his forst name is C.o.d.y. and last name starts with S.
	1:20pm clarke: well, i am just hearing, damn.
	1:21pm clarke: ↳ tim @1:20 sounds unlikely??
	1:23pm tim: ↳ clarke @1:21 Probably. If there's anything to it, I'm guessing he jammed with some of the Dictators a couple timess and then took liberties in story telling from there.
	1:23pm Alvy Singer: Danzig totally stole the riff from The Minnesota Strip for his song Snakes of Christ!
	1:23pm clarke: GREAT tribute EFD - thanks!!
	1:25pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and people of the radio. Yeah bummer, RIPs abounding ...
	1:26pm tim: I unfortunately have to step away for a 1/2 hours. This Top Ten tribute is definitely top ten! Thanks, efd.
	1:26pm efd: someone who knows more than me, please tell me: were there any other bands like this on Asylum at the time? It seems so random for The Dictators to have been on that label.
	1:27pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @1:25 hey mate! hope YOU are hangin' in there!
	1:27pm clarke: ↳ efd @1:26 i don't think there was EVER a band like the Dictators.
	1:28pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:27 I just mean hard-rock in general
	1:28pm Joe B: ↳ efd @1:26 great point efd!
	1:28pm clarke: ↳ efd @1:28 yeah, dunno.
	1:28pm Chesney: BIG cheers on the Dictators set.
	1:29pm clarke: i associate Asylum with cali-rock.
	1:30pm Joe B: jo jo gunne?
	1:30pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @1:30 true.
	1:30pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @1:30 that's the closest, maybe?
	1:30pm miketp: it is what it is.hello Evan and friends.
	1:31pm Joe B: ↳ clarke @1:29 exactly - linda ronstadt, eagles. they had one or two gene clark solo LPs too
	1:32pm clarke: ↳ Song: "loyola" by "the dictators" had this (and most) ROIRs!!
	1:32pm miketp: oohhh like loyola cut.....a lot.
	1:32pm clarke: ↳ clarke @1:32 via Midnight, ha ha.
	1:35pm Beast of Boonton: Great guitar player he still for us
	1:36pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @1:32 What's a ROIR?
	1:36pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:36 it was a series of cassette-only releases
	1:37pm efd: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:36 stood for Reachout International Records, NYC cassette-only label in the early 80s
	1:37pm pwrmnstr: WFMU has had a serious dad vibe all morning.
	1:37pm Handy Haversack: Gotchas. Thanks.
	1:37pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:36 now we know!
	1:37pm pwrmnstr: I'm just about ready to put on some khaki cargo shorts and mow a lawn.
	1:38pm pwrmnstr: maybe harass someone who has dared to touch the thermostat
	1:39pm Hugh: If you squint really hard, weren't the Kinks on Asylum at this time?
	1:39pm Joe B: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:37 what does that mean?
	1:40pm Carmichael: ↳ clarke @1:27 I'm not currently one of the RIPs, thankfully. That's about all I can say lately.
	1:40pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @1:39 i never got or will get the 'dad' thing
	1:40pm pwrmnstr: ↳ Joe B @1:39 Dad rock.
	1:40pm Eli: Introduced to the Del Lords with Vince Scelsa playing Judas Kiss 3 or 4 times back to back on his show one morning (on another station)
	1:40pm Joe B: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:40 what is that?
	1:41pm clarke: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:40 yeah, but what does THAT mean? i can answer: NOTHING.
	1:41pm pwrmnstr: ↳ clarke @1:41 usually has a good dash of the white man's blues.
	1:42pm winston legthigh: ↳ Joe B @1:31 metallica \m/
	1:42pm egould: I'm going to get a couple of cocktails, some lunch, and then wander around the Museum of Flight down at Boeing. Have a good day everyone!
	1:42pm poptone: ↳ efd @1:26 Televison was on Elektra at the same time period with their 2 albums so maybe it was an intentional move to not have 2 NYC underground bands on the same imprint at the same time?
	1:42pm Joe B: ↳ clarke @1:41 sounds like an attempt by someone to be 'edgy'
	1:42pm clarke: ohhh, like the Rolling Stones.
	1:43pm clarke: ↳ egould @1:42 Boing!
	1:44pm pwrmnstr: ↳ Joe B @1:42 hilarious that you don't know what dad rock is... since it's the bulk of your show.
	1:44pm clarke: while i may not quite agree with some production choices made by Del Lords, the songs still shine through.
	1:45pm Joe B: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:44 oh! you are edgy! I get it now.
	1:45pm clarke: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:44 no - because it is a bullshit pigeonhole.
	1:46pm pwrmnstr: ↳ Joe B @1:45 wow... I regularly listened to your show while working from home. But no longer. Jeez.
	1:46pm pwrmnstr: ↳ clarke @1:45 Settle down Beavis
	1:47pm Joe B: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:46 as a non-parent, I am not qualified for dad rock I guess. sorry for the confusion. perhaps work on your material in the meanwhile.
	1:47pm clarke: see Joe, it's like this: a "dad-hat" is a traditional style cloth baseball cap - as opposed to the straight-brim caps that are popular with the "kids", now.
	1:47pm clarke: yes butt head.
	1:47pm efd: alright everyone just knock it off.
	1:47pm Carmichael: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:46 Time to zap the troll?
	1:48pm pwrmnstr: Am I the troll? I'm pretty opinionated but I think troll is a bit strong.
	1:49pm efd: ↳ efd @1:47 taps sign
	1:49pm Joe B: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:46 googling 'dad rock'. any relation to yacht rock? can't afford a yacht ...
	1:50pm clarke: hey, this is a GREAT tribute to a nice guy who succumbed to a horrible death. loving it!
	1:50pm Ben from Newark: Not an actual RIP, but really bummed to hear today that Screaming Females broke up. Huge loss for music, and for New Jersey.
	1:51pm gauche knee: Lovely tribute , efd. Enjoying the deeper dive than I’m familiar with.
	1:51pm Joe B: ↳ Ben from Newark @1:50 was gonna to a screaming females set next week but I need to check with the dad rock guy to see if they are cool or not?
	1:52pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @1:50 Shit, is that what happened?! I knew they canceled the March show, but I'd heard it was "family troubles"? Gah, that's such a shame -- they had such a long, great run, you just figured they were in it for the long haul. Any idea what happened? Or an info source link?
	1:52pm UFOspecialist: Nice! Now it's time for some Donnie Iris!
	1:53pm prof.fuzz: rip top 10 thx efd
	1:54pm love2laf: Thank you efd, loved what I was able to catch of the tribute to Scott. Much appreciated.
	1:54pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "cheyenne" by "the del-lords" @EFD: phonetically, but not entirely coincidentally... i may have stolen that song idea from roscoe (u of wyoming) and the del-lords...
	1:55pm Gauche knee: ↳ Ben from Newark @1:50 Yes, not a death but grief around the loss nonetheless.
	1:56pm clarke: ↳ Song: "deceiver" by "soft science" good one!
	1:56pm Hoboken Jack: Loved your in-depth tribute, EFD, thank you!
	1:57pm ariella: ↳ Song: "possession" by "sloppy heads" Thanks EFD! And great show all around!!!
	1:57pm efd: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:54 a-HA!
	1:57pm abbazabba: ↳ efd @1:47 in the context of what was going in the chat board with the "dad rock" talk, this is one of the most hilarious comments I've ever read on here. Thanks, EFD. Great show also!
	1:58pm clarke: a chinese poet once said: this rocks!
	1:58pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:58 善哉！
	1:59pm clarke: exactly!!
	1:59pm Handy Haversack: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:58 Wait, is this backward?
	2:00pm Bri the Beatnik: Reminds me of I can hear the grass grow
	2:01pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:59 it's horizontal
	2:01pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:52 The band announced on social media yesterday "After 18 years we have decided that Screaming Females is coming to an end" without any additional explanation. But there's an awful lot of love and appreciation out there.
	2:02pm clarke: and fathers who are unhappy.
	2:04pm Gauche knee: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:52 Yeah, Seems fam issues needs tending to.haven’t seen anything beyond their band page & Insta. Wishing them the best but dear god will I miss them kill it live.
	2:04pm Ben from Newark: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:52 twitter.com... I bought tix to the Garden Party shows @White Eagle Hall, and did hear about the "family troubles" when they were taken off the bill of their own festival. Reading between the lines of their announcement, it sounds like the economics of being a DIY band might have reached a breaking point for them, though I can only speculate from the outside looking in. There's no middle in America these days for anything.
	2:05pm clarke: that last line is so true, ben!
	2:05pm Bri the Beatnik: Ooh just realized that was Kula! Love them!
	2:05pm tim: ↳ Joe B @1:49 But can you afford a kid, Joe?
	2:06pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Bri the Beatnik @2:00 Hi Bri!
	2:06pm efd: ↳ Bri the Beatnik @2:05 yeah, I've liked all the new tracks I've heard from them!
	2:06pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @2:04 I think we're still going to go to the Saturday show -- should be a good line-up even without them. Thanks for the link. What a shame. This stupid country. Nothing good works.
	2:07pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:06 that is encouraging newS!!!
	2:07pm Bri the Beatnik: Hey Jack and EFD!
	2:07pm tim: Bri the Beatnik's here!
	2:08pm Bri the Beatnik: Aye! Hey Tim! :)
	2:13pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:06 much appreciation to you and everyone who regularly goes to see live music. three major venues closed in fort worth this week. attendance is way down at shows here. everyone's just trying to scrape by.
	2:14pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:13 aw man.
	2:14pm Bri The Beatnik: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:13 Sorry to hear :(
	2:15pm tim: I just looked at the Leather Uppers bandcamp page. They're described as Canada's National Treasure.
	2:15pm Joe B: ↳ tim @2:15 no lies detected!
	2:15pm clarke: and, i have mentioned it, but Gasa Gasa closed in new orleans. bummah.
	2:16pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @2:15 yup. we're impacted by that one. our show moved to siberia.
	2:17pm efd: ↳ tim @2:15 agreed!
	2:17pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:16 right. let's hope siberia makes it that far!
	2:17pm Ben from Newark: ↳ Gauche knee @2:04 I was a student at Rutgers in the early aughts, and saw them at New Brunswick basement shows many a time. It was great to see make their way up the ranks, and continue to grow along the way. I hope Marissa continues to put out music in other forms in the years to come. Some of my fondest memories in those formative years were anchored around those basement shows, so definitely a soft spot for me.
	2:17pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @2:17 don't jinx it! less than a month away.
	2:18pm clarke: not a venue, but Rabbit's Foot - a really good breakfast/lunch place - closed on my block.
	2:18pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:17 which takes your coffee option away, here.
	2:18pm tim: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:13 Man, that sucks terribly, How sad. Same thing has happened here but not as quickly. The few places that are left for shows seemed to only stick within one style of genre in their booking. Hopefully, the "kids" are doing DIY shows. I'm not privy to that and that's the way it should be at my age.
	2:19pm Brian: So nice to hear Polyrock! Criminally unsung NYC early '80s rock
	2:20pm tim: ↳ Joe B @2:15 It's nice to see a governemnt using the people's tax money be put to good use for once!
	2:20pm prof.fuzz: ↳ tim @2:18 denton still has some house shows, and there's a punk house in dallas that does shows. a bunch of smaller venues still plugging away. the trend seems to be rising rents and other expenses meet declining attendance. it's unsustainable.
	2:20pm efd: ↳ Brian @2:19 also agreed!
	2:21pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @2:17 We saw them for the first time only a couple years back and were total converts. First time was with Shelshag, and Marissa credited them with showing them the way to keep persisting as a real indie act. A shame that couldn't continue if that's what brought them down. At any rate, hope for the best for all of them -- they are super talented and seem, at any rate, remarkably low on bullshit. It's a loss for the rest of us, for sure.
	2:21pm dave miss: ↳ clarke @2:18 Looks like you’re totally right Clarke
	2:21pm Bri The Beatnik: Thankfully the concert venues seem to be fine here, just saw a show Friday
	2:22pm Ben from Newark: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:06 Yeah, Team Dresch and Pissed Jeans should be a lot of fun. I'm still going with a few friends -- if you end up making the show I'd love to say hi. I should have introduced myself before - I'm the guy who sang "Can't Help Falling in Love" at karaoke. When you said "ladies... he's taken" afterwards, it was hilarious!
	2:22pm Gauche knee: ↳ Ben from Newark @2:04 Very true about no middle. America has all this potential & so much gets thrown away…sad. I’ll be @🪴🎉 rocking a SF tee for Team Dresch & Pissed Jeans pits.
	2:23pm tim: ↳ Bri The Beatnik @2:21 Detroiters are always hungry for live music!
	2:23pm clarke: ↳ dave miss @2:21 hey MISS!!
	2:23pm Bri The Beatnik: ↳ tim @2:23 Exactly! We have one of the best concert scenes, and I love supporting local acts too!
	2:24pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ Gauche knee @2:22 Between no middle and most Americans having to spend most of their waking minutes working just to keep their heads above water...
	2:24pm clarke: nyyyyyc!
	2:25pm clarke: i haven't heard a goddam air-horn in a long minute.
	2:25pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ clarke @2:24 Hey clarke! I've been here, I just got here a few minutes late. Then I had to take lunch.
	2:26pm Bri The Beatnik: ↳ clarke @2:25 Yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve listened to Nickel And Dime, I miss it!
	2:26pm tim: ↳ Bri The Beatnik @2:23 Yes! Detroit's had a history of strong local bands too.
	2:26pm clarke: lunch: a good idea!
	2:26pm Bri The Beatnik: ↳ tim @2:26 For sure! We boast some of the best!
	2:27pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @2:22 Ha, oh, nice! Glad I didn't step on your toes there! You were awesome! Yeah, we're planning on being there -- I'll try to let you know WHICH WFMU shirt I'll be wearing that night so we can say hi.
	2:27pm clarke: cool set, EFD!!!
	2:28pm tim: ↳ Song: "i saw her last night" by "the why oh whys" This band name is appropriate for the times.
	2:28pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:27 the one that brings the room together!
	2:30pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "love among the ruins" by "scott kempner" I really enjoyed this and blue on blue, don't think I'd listened to his work before!
	2:31pm slocker: BELUUGA!
	2:34pm Ben from Newark: ↳ Joe B @1:51 Haha, according to the playlist search, you've played more unique Screaming Females songs than any other FMU DJ, so you can keep that exhibit on hand if he takes you to dad rock court.
	2:35pm abbazabba: hahaha
	2:35pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "slow dogs" by "polyrock" i'm here, just have my head down, reading, reading, reading.
	2:35pm Marc15: I like the “Who’s On First” reference
	2:35pm clarke: still taken, ladies!
	2:39pm efd: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @2:35 I was thinking of you!
	2:40pm clarke: spoiler: handy's bringing undies - the whites!
	2:40pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ efd @2:39 I have been enjoying them in the last few weeks.
	2:41pm winston legthigh: ↳ Song: "hit or miss (feat. arnaé batson)" by "ruckus robo... this is new? wowza!
	2:42pm efd: it is!
	2:43pm JaydiumCrass: HIT
	2:43pm clarke: inside baseball.
	2:44pm prof.fuzz: time to go teach... thx EFD!
	2:45pm Philip: Right on!
	2:45pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:44 the last few classes!! courage!
	2:45pm tim: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:44 Give them the old college fuZZZ!
	2:45pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @2:45 last two classes of the semester
	2:46pm JaydiumCrass: ↳ Song: "i'll be your star" by "lael neale" Gorgeous!
	2:46pm clarke: the last poets.
	2:47pm efd: ↳ Song: "i'll be your star" by "lael neale" this is a non-LP single, but I can easily see her album from this year making a surprise landing at #1 when I do my best of the 2023
	2:47pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @2:47 Do you still have time to make the list AND check it twice?
	2:47pm clarke: ↳ efd @2:47 thought it was an aimee mann demo at first.
	2:48pm clarke: ↳ clarke @2:47 that's a compliment!
	2:50pm efd: ↳ Song: "i don't want to kill you anymore" by "jean caffeine" speaking of good lines... "you put the (w)hor(e) in horrible" !
	2:50pm clarke: you put the whore in horrible.
	2:50pm clarke: jinx. sorrta
	2:51pm JaydiumCrass: Amazing ladies makin it happen!
	2:51pm Ben from Newark: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:27 Thanks!
	2:52pm JaydiumCrass: ↳ Song: "i don't want to kill you anymore" by "jean caffeine" Snarky...LOVE IT.
	2:52pm clarke: the saucy hobokens.
	2:53pm Figgsrock: Haven't really had time to comment today (which...seems like a good thing considering I just scrolled through the last 2 hours of comments), but just wanted to say I enjoyed the Top Ten tribute and a bunch of the new songs in this hour. Thanks EFD!
	2:53pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, efd. Really nice show. Glad to have been here.
	2:53pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @2:53 and a slight nod to KK, too!
	2:54pm clarke: despite the age-branding attempts, this has been FANtastic!
	2:54pm Ben from Newark: ↳ efd @2:47 Completely missed Lael Neale, but loving this song. Will need to check her album out.
	2:54pm winston legthigh: thanks efd and all!
	2:55pm clarke: for the WIN!!!
	2:55pm love2laf: Thanks efd, cheers everyone!

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from December 6, 2023

View efd's profile

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

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

Upcoming events:

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

	12:21pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ tim @12:03 They had a big hit back in the 80s--Just Between You And Me
	12:22pm tim: ↳ Song: "all right now" by "little big jim" I wonder if this record was given away for "free"?
	12:22pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @12:21 yes. thanks!
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Beast of Boonton @12:21 "he speaks for all of us"
	12:22pm Hugh: Greets all. I'm packing your (somebody's) Xmas presents.
	12:22pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ JaydiumCrass @12:04 Sorry, just posted my comment before I saw yours. My bad.
	12:22pm prof.fuzz: ↳ tim @12:22 i will never not sing this song as "all white cow"...
	12:22pm moniker lou wink’ski: I’d like Cory Daye/Dr Buzzards Savannah Band & or Kid Creole to be audibly playing either as the apocalypse ensues or my days come to an end.
	12:23pm Joe B: greetings efd and everyone
	12:23pm paddy in matawan: big jilm rollin' and a'wheelin stealin' and dealin'
	12:24pm clarke: people's champ!
	12:25pm tim: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:21 Alright! I'll take the heat from the Dean when his/her significant other gets loaded in the fuZZZmoble at the Last Day Of The Semester fuZZZout!
	12:25pm clarke: ↳ tim @12:25 and when they ride their machines
	12:25pm bk845: ↳ Joe B @12:23 Hail Joe B!
	12:25pm luka: ↳ Song: "these boots are made for walkin'" by "the fast" guitar is makin the same exact sound as in “clues” by robert palmer that is wild
	12:26pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:21 I don't know it by the title but I'm sure I'll recogize it immediately upon hearing it.
	12:26pm clarke: ↳ luka @12:25 good tune!
	12:26pm tim: Hey Joe!
	12:26pm moniker lou wink’ski: Hey, was that the original z”clapping song” by Shirley Ellis? Or perhaps one of the many covers…Belle Stars?
	12:26pm efd: jeez, two records in a row with no dead space between tracks!
	12:27pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ tim @12:26 open.spotify.com...
	12:27pm clarke: he's on a roll!
	12:27pm northguineahills: @efd: I start working jan 8th, so i'm moving up to nyc after new years. (finally escaping florida)
	12:28pm prof.fuzz: ↳ northguineahills @12:27 i will never tire of hearing this news!
	12:28pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:27 Grazi!
	12:28pm oceanbeachjam: ↳ Song: "i am, i am" by "april wine" What a great song!
	12:28pm efd: ↳ northguineahills @12:27 yay!
	12:29pm luka: ↳ clarke @12:26 indeed!
	12:29pm love2laf: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:28 Me neither! And loved the album, as did hubby.
	12:29pm efd: ↳ oceanbeachjam @12:28 truly.
	12:29pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:27 soon you'll be ensconced in the canyons of manhatten!!
	12:29pm tim: ↳ Song: "i am, i am" by "april wine" This is kick ass! Was this from 2006 or is that the year this particular album was released on UC.
	12:29pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "i am, i am" by "april wine" damn, I only know their 2 US radio hits. need to investigate further ...
	12:29pm love2laf: ↳ Song: "i am, i am" by "april wine" Ah cheers again efd.
	12:29pm prof.fuzz: ↳ love2laf @12:29 thank you and hubby!
	12:30pm clarke: ↳ Song: "i am, i am" by "april wine" again, EFD proves me wr-wr-wrong
	12:31pm Late Bloomer: I never knew April wine was this cool. I think I judged the cover, and blew it off. Glad I heard that one
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ Late Bloomer @12:31 same
	12:32pm northguineahills: ↳ clarke @12:29 can't wait. now to figure out where to live until i have a few paychecks under my belt.
	12:33pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:32 yipe. no ideas, there.
	12:33pm FletcherNYC: Was just talking about Dean Rispler last night with a coworker… What a legend
	12:34pm northguineahills: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:22 kamadhenu, the sacred white cow from hindu mythology?
	12:34pm tim: ↳ Song: "these boots are made for walkin'" by "the fast" That Fast cut was great!
	12:34pm Steve from Stag!: Now just hang on a minute there. Comparing April Wine to the Petrols? No. Just no.
	12:35pm prof.fuzz: ↳ northguineahills @12:34 undoubtedly
	12:35pm clarke: indubitably!
	12:36pm paddy in matawan: buenos tardes, amigos
	12:37pm Mike Sin: re: The Fast Such an early "parody" cover! Those types of things really got popular in the 1990s... I'm guessing "Recca" records could not afford flour-color printing.
	12:37pm Barefoot Jimmy G: EFD, just bought a signed copy of The Fast record on eBay. Thanks!
	12:37pm Mike Sin: ↳ Mike Sin @12:37 or "four color printing"
	12:38pm Barefoot Jimmy G: ↳ Mike Sin @12:37 "Flour" is better!
	12:38pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Mike Sin @12:37 i kinda like the idea of "flour-color" printing. our team colors are whole-wheat and ketchup.
	12:39pm clarke: that first Liminanas record is a perfect album.
	12:40pm Steve from Stag!: Listening...
	12:40pm northguineahills: ↳ clarke @12:35 🤣
	12:40pm winston legthigh: hello efd and the funky bunch. harke clarke!
	12:40pm clarke: WIN!!! early today - fab!!
	12:41pm slocker: Lotta dancing around the explanation! I catch what you are putting down.
	12:42pm clarke: EFD - doing the lord's work. (the lord of ROCK!_)
	12:42pm northguineahills: huh, i'm getting a spam call from jersey city....
	12:42pm winston legthigh: the worm is mine.
	12:42pm efd: ↳ Song: "sheila" by "april wine" to be 100% clear, I love this song! My intention was positive!
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:42 the calls are coming from inside the house!
	12:43pm T281: My Sharona
	12:43pm clarke: ↳ efd @12:42 yeah = what's not to like??
	12:43pm tim: ↳ northguineahills @12:42 Spammers are just calling to welcome you back.
	12:43pm clarke: ↳ tim @12:43 lol
	12:43pm Steve from Stag!: There's definitely an echo in the vocal range and style - I'll grant you that. But TPE just didn't write songs that were this traditional - and certainly didn't write songs with girls names in 'em. But I'm belaboring the point. At the end of the day I'm totally digging it, and bemused by the fact.
	12:44pm northguineahills: ↳ tim @12:43 well it does feel like home... ;)
	12:44pm tim: ↳ northguineahills @12:44 Nice!
	12:45pm clarke: the next spammer that calls - ask him for a room to let.
	12:45pm poptone: wow, I hear some Petrols on the April Wine track. thought it may be a Tommy Roe cover, but this is mo' better. RIP Myles.
	12:45pm northguineahills: when i was applying to jobs in nyc, it was complicated since 60% of the spam I get is from the nyc area, so, I'd keep on answering all of the spam....
	12:45pm clarke: lotta can con!
	12:46pm northguineahills: ↳ clarke @12:45 might as get some benefit from interrupting my day!
	12:46pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:46 unless it is in india
	12:47pm efd: ↳ Steve from Stag! @12:43 fair enough!
	12:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "frozen strawberries" by "seablite" huh, i know seabrite, but not seablite, and they sound very similar....new to me and digdug!
	12:48pm winston legthigh: ↳ northguineahills @12:45 now you have an extended car warranty and a fortune waiting for you in somalia.
	12:48pm clarke: ha ha ha
	12:48pm northguineahills: ↳ winston legthigh @12:48 so it DOES mean i have a car, i knew it!
	12:49pm clarke: ↳ northguineahills @12:48 and larger breasts.
	12:50pm Tornado: Maybe the sound of the guitars a bit but I'm hearing what sounds like the Knack redoing a subpar Beatlesque version of You Can't Do That. Overall it's not up to That Petrol Emotion standards.
	12:51pm clarke: subpar beatles - my life story.
	12:52pm egould: ↳ Song: "sheila" by "april wine" Pretty good song, but the drummer ruined it right at the very end.
	12:52pm JaydiumCrass: ↳ Song: "across the line" by "feeling figures" That this is new is a gobsmack.
	12:52pm clarke: ↳ Song: "across the line" by "feeling figures" that wuz kule.
	12:53pm JaydiumCrass: Sorry, meant the Sloppy Heads track.
	12:54pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "possession" by "sloppy heads" Caught a game but abbreviated set from them a few weeks back at a place that forgot to have mics or a PA available for the band they booked. Still, Sloppy Heads did a great psych jam.
	12:54pm egould: ↳ northguineahills @12:48 The drummer in seablite is the guitarist/singer in Chime School. Chime School is very jangly and good as well.
	12:55pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:54 OVER THE LINE!!
	12:56pm winston legthigh: handy!
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ egould @12:54 just subscribed to Chime School on your say-so!
	12:57pm Handy Haversack: ↳ winston legthigh @12:56 Hey, winston. How goes?
	12:57pm Hoboken Jack: Hi there EFD, Joe, NGH, Clarke, Tim, Prof, Mike Sin, NYCMnerd, love2laf, Krys, everyone! I don't want to be a troublemaker but now that I think of it, Sign of the Gypsy Queen and The Bedazzler are basically the same song. 😂
	12:57pm clarke: jaaaaack!!! double jeopardy!
	12:58pm love2laf: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:57 G'afternoon Jack, good to see you.
	12:58pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:54 Howdy Handy!
	12:58pm Joe B: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:57 ha ha!
	1:00pm JaydiumCrass: Owdy, Handy!
	1:00pm Steve from Stag!: ↳ Tornado @12:50 Exactly. Thank you.
	1:00pm tim: Hey Jack!
	1:00pm northguineahills: ↳ clarke @12:49 giggity!
	1:01pm northguineahills: ↳ egould @12:54 cool!
	1:01pm clarke: :::RIP TopTen!!!
	1:01pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack.
	1:01pm northguineahills: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:57 JACK!
	1:01pm Bob Dylan: Fortunately, I'll never die. Did you hear that, Ken?
	1:01pm clarke: wow! what a first live show!
	1:02pm slocker: Good memory.
	1:02pm Steve from Stag!: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:57 Jack - honest to god, we hadn't heard that song, until I heard it on one of EFD's comp CDs I got in a fundraiser. YOU ARE TOTALLY RIGHT.
	1:03pm listener 126464: Good afternoon, efd, everyone! I was at that Left Banke show.
	1:03pm winston legthigh: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:57 dealing with irritating contractors but it's almost over. hope all is well in the big city which will be plus ngh soon!
	1:04pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:03 you need irriGATING contractors!!
	1:04pm listener 126464: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:57 Cheers, Jack!
	1:05pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:54 doh! i've played that venue (or one just like it)...
	1:05pm clarke: ↳ Song: "master race rock" by "the dictators" in MY top ten!!
	1:05pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:04 he's the only good one.
	1:06pm clarke: monopoly.
	1:06pm tim: ↳ Song: "master race rock" by "the dictators" I definitely need this Norton comp. So good! RIP Top Ten!
	1:07pm jerry kooseman jr: i was at the left bank show too!HDM introduced me to his parents who were living in nearby CO OP City!
	1:08pm clarke: isn't Kempfner the one whose photo is a weenie-roast in bed, on the Go Girl Crazy album - one of the greatest photos EVER!
	1:09pm Joe B: ↳ tim @1:06 essential!
	1:09pm tim: TWO TUB MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	1:10pm clarke: ↳ clarke @1:08 -f
	1:12pm efd: ↳ Song: "two tub man" by "the dictators" so many great lines in this song
	1:12pm clarke: not to mention guitar lines!
	1:13pm clarke: and bass line!
	1:13pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ listener 126464 @1:04 Hi 126464! Nice comic today!
	1:13pm pwrmnstr: SO MUCH BUTT IN THIS ROCK
	1:14pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Steve from Stag! @1:02 Hahahaha. Love you guys!!
	1:14pm tim: Man, I know if I grew up in the same neighborhood at the same time as these guys, we would be fast friends. Wrestling, Mad Magazine, rock'n'roll and beer. That's in my DNA.
	1:15pm tim: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:13 Probably the best description of the Dictators I've ever seen.
	1:16pm tim: ↳ efd @1:12 The one liners in Two Tub Man never fail to crack me up. The Jackie O line is my favorite.
	1:16pm clarke: i screw who i screw
	1:19pm clarke: DANG - i'm getting news that Denny Laine has passed away.
	1:20pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:19 yeah, I saw that yesterday
	1:20pm tim: There was a guy around Champaign who claimed he was in the Dictators. I'm dubious. I've never found proof. He was of the right age and location for the time. His name his forst name is C.o.d.y. and last name starts with S.
	1:20pm clarke: well, i am just hearing, damn.
	1:21pm clarke: ↳ tim @1:20 sounds unlikely??
	1:23pm tim: ↳ clarke @1:21 Probably. If there's anything to it, I'm guessing he jammed with some of the Dictators a couple timess and then took liberties in story telling from there.
	1:23pm Alvy Singer: Danzig totally stole the riff from The Minnesota Strip for his song Snakes of Christ!
	1:23pm clarke: GREAT tribute EFD - thanks!!
	1:25pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and people of the radio. Yeah bummer, RIPs abounding ...
	1:26pm tim: I unfortunately have to step away for a 1/2 hours. This Top Ten tribute is definitely top ten! Thanks, efd.
	1:26pm efd: someone who knows more than me, please tell me: were there any other bands like this on Asylum at the time? It seems so random for The Dictators to have been on that label.
	1:27pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @1:25 hey mate! hope YOU are hangin' in there!
	1:27pm clarke: ↳ efd @1:26 i don't think there was EVER a band like the Dictators.
	1:28pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:27 I just mean hard-rock in general
	1:28pm Joe B: ↳ efd @1:26 great point efd!
	1:28pm clarke: ↳ efd @1:28 yeah, dunno.
	1:28pm Chesney: BIG cheers on the Dictators set.
	1:29pm clarke: i associate Asylum with cali-rock.
	1:30pm Joe B: jo jo gunne?
	1:30pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @1:30 true.
	1:30pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @1:30 that's the closest, maybe?
	1:30pm miketp: it is what it is.hello Evan and friends.
	1:31pm Joe B: ↳ clarke @1:29 exactly - linda ronstadt, eagles. they had one or two gene clark solo LPs too
	1:32pm clarke: ↳ Song: "loyola" by "the dictators" had this (and most) ROIRs!!
	1:32pm miketp: oohhh like loyola cut.....a lot.
	1:32pm clarke: ↳ clarke @1:32 via Midnight, ha ha.
	1:35pm Beast of Boonton: Great guitar player he still for us
	1:36pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @1:32 What's a ROIR?
	1:36pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:36 it was a series of cassette-only releases
	1:37pm efd: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:36 stood for Reachout International Records, NYC cassette-only label in the early 80s
	1:37pm pwrmnstr: WFMU has had a serious dad vibe all morning.
	1:37pm Handy Haversack: Gotchas. Thanks.
	1:37pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:36 now we know!
	1:37pm pwrmnstr: I'm just about ready to put on some khaki cargo shorts and mow a lawn.
	1:38pm pwrmnstr: maybe harass someone who has dared to touch the thermostat
	1:39pm Hugh: If you squint really hard, weren't the Kinks on Asylum at this time?
	1:39pm Joe B: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:37 what does that mean?
	1:40pm Carmichael: ↳ clarke @1:27 I'm not currently one of the RIPs, thankfully. That's about all I can say lately.
	1:40pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @1:39 i never got or will get the 'dad' thing
	1:40pm pwrmnstr: ↳ Joe B @1:39 Dad rock.
	1:40pm Eli: Introduced to the Del Lords with Vince Scelsa playing Judas Kiss 3 or 4 times back to back on his show one morning (on another station)
	1:40pm Joe B: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:40 what is that?
	1:41pm clarke: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:40 yeah, but what does THAT mean? i can answer: NOTHING.
	1:41pm pwrmnstr: ↳ clarke @1:41 usually has a good dash of the white man's blues.
	1:42pm winston legthigh: ↳ Joe B @1:31 metallica \m/
	1:42pm egould: I'm going to get a couple of cocktails, some lunch, and then wander around the Museum of Flight down at Boeing. Have a good day everyone!
	1:42pm poptone: ↳ efd @1:26 Televison was on Elektra at the same time period with their 2 albums so maybe it was an intentional move to not have 2 NYC underground bands on the same imprint at the same time?
	1:42pm Joe B: ↳ clarke @1:41 sounds like an attempt by someone to be 'edgy'
	1:42pm clarke: ohhh, like the Rolling Stones.
	1:43pm clarke: ↳ egould @1:42 Boing!
	1:44pm pwrmnstr: ↳ Joe B @1:42 hilarious that you don't know what dad rock is... since it's the bulk of your show.
	1:44pm clarke: while i may not quite agree with some production choices made by Del Lords, the songs still shine through.
	1:45pm Joe B: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:44 oh! you are edgy! I get it now.
	1:45pm clarke: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:44 no - because it is a bullshit pigeonhole.
	1:46pm pwrmnstr: ↳ Joe B @1:45 wow... I regularly listened to your show while working from home. But no longer. Jeez.
	1:46pm pwrmnstr: ↳ clarke @1:45 Settle down Beavis
	1:47pm Joe B: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:46 as a non-parent, I am not qualified for dad rock I guess. sorry for the confusion. perhaps work on your material in the meanwhile.
	1:47pm clarke: see Joe, it's like this: a "dad-hat" is a traditional style cloth baseball cap - as opposed to the straight-brim caps that are popular with the "kids", now.
	1:47pm clarke: yes butt head.
	1:47pm efd: alright everyone just knock it off.
	1:47pm Carmichael: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:46 Time to zap the troll?
	1:48pm pwrmnstr: Am I the troll? I'm pretty opinionated but I think troll is a bit strong.
	1:49pm efd: ↳ efd @1:47 taps sign
	1:49pm Joe B: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:46 googling 'dad rock'. any relation to yacht rock? can't afford a yacht ...
	1:50pm clarke: hey, this is a GREAT tribute to a nice guy who succumbed to a horrible death. loving it!
	1:50pm Ben from Newark: Not an actual RIP, but really bummed to hear today that Screaming Females broke up. Huge loss for music, and for New Jersey.
	1:51pm gauche knee: Lovely tribute , efd. Enjoying the deeper dive than I’m familiar with.
	1:51pm Joe B: ↳ Ben from Newark @1:50 was gonna to a screaming females set next week but I need to check with the dad rock guy to see if they are cool or not?
	1:52pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @1:50 Shit, is that what happened?! I knew they canceled the March show, but I'd heard it was "family troubles"? Gah, that's such a shame -- they had such a long, great run, you just figured they were in it for the long haul. Any idea what happened? Or an info source link?
	1:52pm UFOspecialist: Nice! Now it's time for some Donnie Iris!
	1:53pm prof.fuzz: rip top 10 thx efd
	1:54pm love2laf: Thank you efd, loved what I was able to catch of the tribute to Scott. Much appreciated.
	1:54pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "cheyenne" by "the del-lords" @EFD: phonetically, but not entirely coincidentally... i may have stolen that song idea from roscoe (u of wyoming) and the del-lords...
	1:55pm Gauche knee: ↳ Ben from Newark @1:50 Yes, not a death but grief around the loss nonetheless.
	1:56pm clarke: ↳ Song: "deceiver" by "soft science" good one!
	1:56pm Hoboken Jack: Loved your in-depth tribute, EFD, thank you!
	1:57pm ariella: ↳ Song: "possession" by "sloppy heads" Thanks EFD! And great show all around!!!
	1:57pm efd: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:54 a-HA!
	1:57pm abbazabba: ↳ efd @1:47 in the context of what was going in the chat board with the "dad rock" talk, this is one of the most hilarious comments I've ever read on here. Thanks, EFD. Great show also!
	1:58pm clarke: a chinese poet once said: this rocks!
	1:58pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @1:58 善哉！
	1:59pm clarke: exactly!!
	1:59pm Handy Haversack: ↳ prof.fuzz @1:58 Wait, is this backward?
	2:00pm Bri the Beatnik: Reminds me of I can hear the grass grow
	2:01pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:59 it's horizontal
	2:01pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:52 The band announced on social media yesterday "After 18 years we have decided that Screaming Females is coming to an end" without any additional explanation. But there's an awful lot of love and appreciation out there.
	2:02pm clarke: and fathers who are unhappy.
	2:04pm Gauche knee: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:52 Yeah, Seems fam issues needs tending to.haven’t seen anything beyond their band page & Insta. Wishing them the best but dear god will I miss them kill it live.
	2:04pm Ben from Newark: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:52 twitter.com... I bought tix to the Garden Party shows @White Eagle Hall, and did hear about the "family troubles" when they were taken off the bill of their own festival. Reading between the lines of their announcement, it sounds like the economics of being a DIY band might have reached a breaking point for them, though I can only speculate from the outside looking in. There's no middle in America these days for anything.
	2:05pm clarke: that last line is so true, ben!
	2:05pm Bri the Beatnik: Ooh just realized that was Kula! Love them!
	2:05pm tim: ↳ Joe B @1:49 But can you afford a kid, Joe?
	2:06pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Bri the Beatnik @2:00 Hi Bri!
	2:06pm efd: ↳ Bri the Beatnik @2:05 yeah, I've liked all the new tracks I've heard from them!
	2:06pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @2:04 I think we're still going to go to the Saturday show -- should be a good line-up even without them. Thanks for the link. What a shame. This stupid country. Nothing good works.
	2:07pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:06 that is encouraging newS!!!
	2:07pm Bri the Beatnik: Hey Jack and EFD!
	2:07pm tim: Bri the Beatnik's here!
	2:08pm Bri the Beatnik: Aye! Hey Tim! :)
	2:13pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:06 much appreciation to you and everyone who regularly goes to see live music. three major venues closed in fort worth this week. attendance is way down at shows here. everyone's just trying to scrape by.
	2:14pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:13 aw man.
	2:14pm Bri The Beatnik: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:13 Sorry to hear :(
	2:15pm tim: I just looked at the Leather Uppers bandcamp page. They're described as Canada's National Treasure.
	2:15pm Joe B: ↳ tim @2:15 no lies detected!
	2:15pm clarke: and, i have mentioned it, but Gasa Gasa closed in new orleans. bummah.
	2:16pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @2:15 yup. we're impacted by that one. our show moved to siberia.
	2:17pm efd: ↳ tim @2:15 agreed!
	2:17pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:16 right. let's hope siberia makes it that far!
	2:17pm Ben from Newark: ↳ Gauche knee @2:04 I was a student at Rutgers in the early aughts, and saw them at New Brunswick basement shows many a time. It was great to see make their way up the ranks, and continue to grow along the way. I hope Marissa continues to put out music in other forms in the years to come. Some of my fondest memories in those formative years were anchored around those basement shows, so definitely a soft spot for me.
	2:17pm prof.fuzz: ↳ clarke @2:17 don't jinx it! less than a month away.
	2:18pm clarke: not a venue, but Rabbit's Foot - a really good breakfast/lunch place - closed on my block.
	2:18pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:17 which takes your coffee option away, here.
	2:18pm tim: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:13 Man, that sucks terribly, How sad. Same thing has happened here but not as quickly. The few places that are left for shows seemed to only stick within one style of genre in their booking. Hopefully, the "kids" are doing DIY shows. I'm not privy to that and that's the way it should be at my age.
	2:19pm Brian: So nice to hear Polyrock! Criminally unsung NYC early '80s rock
	2:20pm tim: ↳ Joe B @2:15 It's nice to see a governemnt using the people's tax money be put to good use for once!
	2:20pm prof.fuzz: ↳ tim @2:18 denton still has some house shows, and there's a punk house in dallas that does shows. a bunch of smaller venues still plugging away. the trend seems to be rising rents and other expenses meet declining attendance. it's unsustainable.
	2:20pm efd: ↳ Brian @2:19 also agreed!
	2:21pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @2:17 We saw them for the first time only a couple years back and were total converts. First time was with Shelshag, and Marissa credited them with showing them the way to keep persisting as a real indie act. A shame that couldn't continue if that's what brought them down. At any rate, hope for the best for all of them -- they are super talented and seem, at any rate, remarkably low on bullshit. It's a loss for the rest of us, for sure.
	2:21pm dave miss: ↳ clarke @2:18 Looks like you’re totally right Clarke
	2:21pm Bri The Beatnik: Thankfully the concert venues seem to be fine here, just saw a show Friday
	2:22pm Ben from Newark: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:06 Yeah, Team Dresch and Pissed Jeans should be a lot of fun. I'm still going with a few friends -- if you end up making the show I'd love to say hi. I should have introduced myself before - I'm the guy who sang "Can't Help Falling in Love" at karaoke. When you said "ladies... he's taken" afterwards, it was hilarious!
	2:22pm Gauche knee: ↳ Ben from Newark @2:04 Very true about no middle. America has all this potential & so much gets thrown away…sad. I’ll be @🪴🎉 rocking a SF tee for Team Dresch & Pissed Jeans pits.
	2:23pm tim: ↳ Bri The Beatnik @2:21 Detroiters are always hungry for live music!
	2:23pm clarke: ↳ dave miss @2:21 hey MISS!!
	2:23pm Bri The Beatnik: ↳ tim @2:23 Exactly! We have one of the best concert scenes, and I love supporting local acts too!
	2:24pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ Gauche knee @2:22 Between no middle and most Americans having to spend most of their waking minutes working just to keep their heads above water...
	2:24pm clarke: nyyyyyc!
	2:25pm clarke: i haven't heard a goddam air-horn in a long minute.
	2:25pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ clarke @2:24 Hey clarke! I've been here, I just got here a few minutes late. Then I had to take lunch.
	2:26pm Bri The Beatnik: ↳ clarke @2:25 Yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve listened to Nickel And Dime, I miss it!
	2:26pm tim: ↳ Bri The Beatnik @2:23 Yes! Detroit's had a history of strong local bands too.
	2:26pm clarke: lunch: a good idea!
	2:26pm Bri The Beatnik: ↳ tim @2:26 For sure! We boast some of the best!
	2:27pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @2:22 Ha, oh, nice! Glad I didn't step on your toes there! You were awesome! Yeah, we're planning on being there -- I'll try to let you know WHICH WFMU shirt I'll be wearing that night so we can say hi.
	2:27pm clarke: cool set, EFD!!!
	2:28pm tim: ↳ Song: "i saw her last night" by "the why oh whys" This band name is appropriate for the times.
	2:28pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:27 the one that brings the room together!
	2:30pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "love among the ruins" by "scott kempner" I really enjoyed this and blue on blue, don't think I'd listened to his work before!
	2:31pm slocker: BELUUGA!
	2:34pm Ben from Newark: ↳ Joe B @1:51 Haha, according to the playlist search, you've played more unique Screaming Females songs than any other FMU DJ, so you can keep that exhibit on hand if he takes you to dad rock court.
	2:35pm abbazabba: hahaha
	2:35pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "slow dogs" by "polyrock" i'm here, just have my head down, reading, reading, reading.

	2:46pm JaydiumCrass: ↳ Song: "i'll be your star" by "lael neale" Gorgeous!
	2:46pm clarke: the last poets.
	2:47pm efd: ↳ Song: "i'll be your star" by "lael neale" this is a non-LP single, but I can easily see her album from this year making a surprise landing at #1 when I do my best of the 2023
	2:47pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @2:47 Do you still have time to make the list AND check it twice?
	2:47pm clarke: ↳ efd @2:47 thought it was an aimee mann demo at first.
	2:48pm clarke: ↳ clarke @2:47 that's a compliment!
	2:50pm efd: ↳ Song: "i don't want to kill you anymore" by "jean caffeine" speaking of good lines... "you put the (w)hor(e) in horrible" !
