	9:05pm kevin g: Off to a brilliant start!
	9:05pm Stevel: Good evening. Nice night to pack up a vinyl mailing. I've really grown to love this Cute Lepers album. You're reminding me to put it back into the car. (They will officially follow the Sex Pistols.)
	9:10pm Stevel: Ooooo, wicked stereo on Mmoss. Lucky I started with headphones tonight.
	9:13pm steve: aww yeah

	9:17pm Loretta: hi efd ~
	9:19pm john: Hey Evan! Funny, for some reason I always thought that General Johnson was a CHairmen of the Board record. Just goes to show.
	9:19pm efd: Hi Loretta! Barkevious, thanks for posting that link - nice to see the donations rolling in over the past few days.
	9:20pm Stevel: This show is already veering violently from horizon to horizon. Please continue.
	9:21pm joe: 'ello folks @Stevel are you familier with The Briefs some of the guys from Cute Lepers
	9:24pm Stevel: joe: I am now. Thanks. But, do they have backup singers?
	9:26pm joe: No and they do tend to lean towards a more humorus side. Good stuff though
	9:26pm Barkevious Shabazz: @EFD Pretty inspiring. Not a Lotta folks I know were loudfans.
	9:28pm fleep: Great first set, EFD.
	9:29pm Mike East: Hello friends. A bit late but I made it. Kids sleeping...hopefully they stay that way
	9:30pm Ralphine: I played that Stereolab song for a friend of mine when it first came out and asked him to identify the group, and he guessed Inspiral Carpets, which I thought was weird given that he had never heard the song or heard of Stereolab before.
	9:31pm Stevel: joe: Humorous is good.
	9:40pm kevin g: very much looking forward to seeing this band when they come to New York. was absolutely crazy about their first album.
	9:41pm joe: wow love the wax idols track
	9:42pm Barkevious Shabazz: While Peter Murphy does time for dui and meth possession, this Wax Idols will do fine. Nice mugshot.
	9:48pm Stevel: This Wax idols video is flawed but pretty f-ing amazing. Same song. Fierce. Spacy. Melodic. www.youtube.com...
	9:48pm fearson: you can't change a man!
	9:54pm jim: enjoying the Sparks tune
	9:54pm Droll: EFD, Thanks for working Sparks into tonight's set, I'll consider this a response to the comments board this morning!
	9:54pm steve: ...and hours later here it is! still bummed i missed out on Sparks tix.
	9:55pm steve: i honestly thought they wouldnt sell out in 20 mins!
	9:55pm Sparky: Hot Dog I wish I had a ticket for tomorrow night....ratz.
	9:56pm Sparky: Oh man this is painful...Evan have mercy...ha ha.
	9:57pm Stevel: How big of a venue are they playing?
	10:00pm Chop Scott: Sparks are at the Highline Ballroom! See you there...
	10:00pm steve: Stevel i think its around 6-800 capacity
	10:03pm Mike Napoli: Dude, Highline. Get with the program!
	10:06pm G: Air horn warning. Duck and cover :p
	10:06pm joe: Yeah I didn't know they were playing Philly tonight too and there were still tickets left
	10:07pm steve: are you gonna play the airhorn in lieu of clapping??
	10:07pm efd: I'd probably get thrown out.
	10:08pm G: Probably :p
	10:08pm efd: And thank you Chop Scott and Mr. Napoli for setting me straight on the venue! I don't know why I'm having such a hard time with that.
	10:11pm Holly in NC: Hi EFD! fwiw, native folks from Connecticut really, really do not like being called tri-staters. We're New Englanders, damnit. Great Chris Stamey song. #Barkevious, thanks for Miller family fund link. Interesting interview w Hether of Wax Idols here: www.emusic.com...
	10:13pm efd: whoops! Sorry, New Englanders.
	10:14pm joe: @ Holly fine be like that we'll let PA be part of our group then ;)
	10:15pm joe: For those that have not seen B.A.L.L will be doing a reunion show at Electric Ballroom or maybe this only excites me. :)
	10:16pm Holly in NC: Also huge props to Jozef Becker for setting up Miller fund - Have I ever mentioned how much I love Thin White Rope? And how they (including Jozef) played 1 of best shows I've ever seen to just 5 people?
	10:17pm Holly in NC: @joe no, that IS exciting!
	10:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: MadMagazine Stating the Obvious Dept. : ...My Goodness, this Jacco Gardner is well-realized PsychPop...
	10:20pm Holly in NC: EFD, were you able to get a copy of the Trouble in Mind 4way RSD 7"?
	10:24pm efd: Not personally, but it is en route thanks to a well-placed listener. A couple of well-placed listeners, actually!
	10:24pm efd: (Joe Belock is getting the other one.)
	10:27pm Holly in NC: Looking forward to hearing it :-)
	10:27pm Barkevious Shabazz: @EFD and the elusive Academy Fight Song 7" remains ever elusive, wonderful cheesy keyboard sound and all?
	10:30pm Aharon: Hello, fellow comment-board creepies! Pete Galub's playing this Saturday night at Littlefield in Brooklyn. He puts on a good show.
	10:35pm Barkevious Shabazz: I can make your hair grow where?
	10:37pm amEdeo: Evan, do you know where the whole "Two for tuesday" thing originated?
	10:38pm Barkevious Shabazz: Radio hell.
	10:38pm efd: I always associate it with WNEW-FM from way back when, but I don't know if they were the first to do it.
	10:40pm amEdeo: @Shabazz: Haw. @efd: Hmm. Thanks! I feel strangely compelled to get to the bottom of this...
	10:41pm Loretta: yeah, WNEW!
	10:49pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): WNEW and 92.3 K-Rock did it. I think Three-for-Thursday came later.
	10:49pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Say what you will about WNEW, but Scott Muni's voice taught me that rock 'n' roll was actually important.
	10:50pm Holly in NC: WPLR (New Haven) MAY have done it ... I listened to a lot of NYC stations also
	10:51pm Holly in NC: By mid 80s in Western Mass, ubiquitous
	10:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Deniz Tek song reminds me of Sonic Youth a bit...
	10:53pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Re: "native folks from Connecticut really, really do not like being called tri-staters. We're New Englanders, damnit." I always figured this to depend on the part of CT. Hartford is the Yankees/Red Sox dividing line. As a decades-long CT-crosser, I can't imagine anyone southwest of New Haven having too much of a case for not being a tri-stater.
	10:53pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Holly, you a WMass-er?
	10:53pm Mike Sin: I think "two for tuesdays," at least in NYC, might actually go back to WPLJ-FMin the late '70s, IIRC.
	10:55pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I only really knew rock WPLJ from (mesmerizing, as a kid) TV commercials. By the time I tuned regularly in it was Power 95.
	10:55pm Rickwaukee: If it's got to be clean it's got to be tied ?
	10:58pm efd: Pete, I'm just going to quietly edit your comment so it says _Scott_ Muni, as you intended, instead of Paul Muni.
	10:58pm Barkevious Shabazz: This Goodman is great.
	10:59pm Holly in NC: @Pete - Born & bred JUST SW of New Haven CT (Milford, well before it became a suburb of fucking Greenwich - my whole lower-middle class neighborhood's been razed to make way for executive condos) and yeah, we were New Englanders. Then went to college & lived in WMass, which is where my heart is, really. Northampton.
	11:02pm Stevel: Good thing the Hot Nun track ended. My dog is looking desperate.
	11:04pm Barkevious Shabazz: If this is the wimps of let's go home and be boring, we may have a new Shabazz household favorite.
	11:07pm efd: @Barkevious, that song isn't on the Repeat album, but I'm 96% certain it's the same Wimps.
	11:07pm Barkevious Shabazz: Top notch.
	11:08pm Stevel: The dog is starting to become irate with me.
	11:10pm Barkevious Shabazz: I take it this is related to the Fast Product comp rotting in me basement?
	11:11pm Holly in NC: @Pete - BYE, Milford was pretty much split 50 Yankees, 40 Red Sox, 10 Mets. I am personally a Yankee fan (Thanks, Dad!) as well as a New Englander. Also thanks to Dad I root for Giants not Pats or Jets. No one I knew cared about basketball (severe culture shock coming to NC). Whalers of course!
	11:11pm Holly in NC: @Stevel, take the dog out.
	11:12pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Ah, yes, Scott Muni. Sorry, been a few years.
	11:12pm Droll: . o O ( I can't figure out what keeps Holly in NC )
	11:12pm Stevel: Holly: Actually, he wanted water. (What a jerk)
	11:12pm AZ: No relation.
	11:14pm AZ: (LJP swears that song used to get played regularly in some club back in the day.)
	11:15pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Holly -- I am a UMass 2nd gen, only left there by circumstance and not exactly choice. The biggest Giants fans I've known (growing up in NJ) were pre-Pats New Englanders from when the Giants were the New England team. I still love that there were people who hung onto their identity after the AFL/NFL tried to replace it.
	11:15pm Holly in NC: I do love Durham. Durham is a great, great place. And my subprime mortgage payment for 2BR house in 2013 is still less than rent I was paying for 1BR apt in Northampton in 1990.
	11:17pm Droll: AZ, [gasping -- breathless] Where do I get a Tarkus Cake?!?! I so love the new ticket bumper, EFD.
	11:20pm Holly in NC: But regardless of my deep & sincere love of Durham I hope end my days in either the Pioneer Valley or SE Rhode Island because I am, indeed a damn Yankee.
	11:23pm Stevel: Gnod is getting play on a bunch of WFMU shows. I would approve that message.
	11:26pm Rickwaukee: I've played Gnip Gnop against Gnod. Their music is very gnood.
	11:26pm Holly in NC: Enjoying Gnod.
	11:28pm Listener Bill: Hi, Evan! Great, as always. Rock on!
	11:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Marty McSorley said he'd get into Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones if they'd use Metal music. - Likewise - I feel the Godzilla/Daikaiju people should use something like this Gnod...
	11:31pm Barkevious Shabazz: A bit repetitive, but she's got a hearta gold.
	11:37pm Chris in TX via RI: My computer/Winamp is having a "buffering" fit tonight. It's driving me nuts.
	11:40pm map: The problem I have with game of thrones is dragons and sex scenes. You cannot have both!
	11:41pm Alex: Rule 37
	11:42pm Alex von Edgewater: whoops, meant 34
	11:42pm Droll: map, Au contraire: 3D.
	11:47pm fleep: Full frontal dragon nudity is still hard to get used to.
	11:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...3D Dragon porn is prob. inevitable...prob. everything is inevitable...
	11:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ..Smaug just had that one loose scale...that's how it begins...
	11:51pm Holly in NC: @RRNov63 - +gazillion!
	11:56pm 12539: ...and that's how it goes. Thanks Mr Funk!
	11:57pm Rickwaukee: Oh, 80's.
	11:57pm Holly in NC: Thank you, Evan.
	11:58pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I was supposed to be asleep by the time you were done here, dammit...
	11:59pm fleep: Thanks, EFD.
	1:38pm RJM: Thanks for the spin, EFD!

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from April 24, 2013

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!

	10:53pm Mike Sin: I think "two for tuesdays," at least in NYC, might actually go back to WPLJ-FMin the late '70s, IIRC.
	10:55pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I only really knew rock WPLJ from (mesmerizing, as a kid) TV commercials. By the time I tuned regularly in it was Power 95.
	10:55pm Rickwaukee: If it's got to be clean it's got to be tied ?
	10:58pm efd: Pete, I'm just going to quietly edit your comment so it says _Scott_ Muni, as you intended, instead of Paul Muni.
	10:58pm Barkevious Shabazz: This Goodman is great.
	10:59pm Holly in NC: @Pete - Born & bred JUST SW of New Haven CT (Milford, well before it became a suburb of fucking Greenwich - my whole lower-middle class neighborhood's been razed to make way for executive condos) and yeah, we were New Englanders. Then went to college & lived in WMass, which is where my heart is, really. Northampton.
	11:02pm Stevel: Good thing the Hot Nun track ended. My dog is looking desperate.
	11:04pm Barkevious Shabazz: If this is the wimps of let's go home and be boring, we may have a new Shabazz household favorite.
	11:07pm efd: @Barkevious, that song isn't on the Repeat album, but I'm 96% certain it's the same Wimps.
	11:07pm Barkevious Shabazz: Top notch.
	11:08pm Stevel: The dog is starting to become irate with me.
	11:10pm Barkevious Shabazz: I take it this is related to the Fast Product comp rotting in me basement?
	11:11pm Holly in NC: @Pete - BYE, Milford was pretty much split 50 Yankees, 40 Red Sox, 10 Mets. I am personally a Yankee fan (Thanks, Dad!) as well as a New Englander. Also thanks to Dad I root for Giants not Pats or Jets. No one I knew cared about basketball (severe culture shock coming to NC). Whalers of course!
	11:11pm Holly in NC: @Stevel, take the dog out.
	11:12pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Ah, yes, Scott Muni. Sorry, been a few years.
	11:12pm Droll: . o O ( I can't figure out what keeps Holly in NC )
	11:12pm Stevel: Holly: Actually, he wanted water. (What a jerk)
	11:12pm AZ: No relation.
	11:14pm AZ: (LJP swears that song used to get played regularly in some club back in the day.)
	11:15pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Holly -- I am a UMass 2nd gen, only left there by circumstance and not exactly choice. The biggest Giants fans I've known (growing up in NJ) were pre-Pats New Englanders from when the Giants were the New England team. I still love that there were people who hung onto their identity after the AFL/NFL tried to replace it.
	11:15pm Holly in NC: I do love Durham. Durham is a great, great place. And my subprime mortgage payment for 2BR house in 2013 is still less than rent I was paying for 1BR apt in Northampton in 1990.
	11:17pm Droll: AZ, [gasping -- breathless] Where do I get a Tarkus Cake?!?! I so love the new ticket bumper, EFD.
	11:20pm Holly in NC: But regardless of my deep & sincere love of Durham I hope end my days in either the Pioneer Valley or SE Rhode Island because I am, indeed a damn Yankee.
	11:23pm Stevel: Gnod is getting play on a bunch of WFMU shows. I would approve that message.
	11:26pm Rickwaukee: I've played Gnip Gnop against Gnod. Their music is very gnood.
	11:26pm Holly in NC: Enjoying Gnod.
	11:28pm Listener Bill: Hi, Evan! Great, as always. Rock on!
	11:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Marty McSorley said he'd get into Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones if they'd use Metal music. - Likewise - I feel the Godzilla/Daikaiju people should use something like this Gnod...
	11:31pm Barkevious Shabazz: A bit repetitive, but she's got a hearta gold.
	11:37pm Chris in TX via RI: My computer/Winamp is having a "buffering" fit tonight. It's driving me nuts.
	11:40pm map: The problem I have with game of thrones is dragons and sex scenes. You cannot have both!
	11:41pm Alex: Rule 37
	11:42pm Alex von Edgewater: whoops, meant 34
	11:42pm Droll: map, Au contraire: 3D.
	11:47pm fleep: Full frontal dragon nudity is still hard to get used to.
	11:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...3D Dragon porn is prob. inevitable...prob. everything is inevitable...
	11:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ..Smaug just had that one loose scale...that's how it begins...
	11:51pm Holly in NC: @RRNov63 - +gazillion!
	11:56pm 12539: ...and that's how it goes. Thanks Mr Funk!
	11:57pm Rickwaukee: Oh, 80's.
	11:57pm Holly in NC: Thank you, Evan.
	11:58pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I was supposed to be asleep by the time you were done here, dammit...
	11:59pm fleep: Thanks, EFD.
	1:38pm RJM: Thanks for the spin, EFD!
