	12:02pm Listener Robert: Does Ken's cryptic remark mean Daisy Freedman's going to be on?

	12:10pm tim from washington: efd! efd! efd!
	12:11pm tim from washington: Thanks for the Elevation, efd.
	12:11pm Figgsrock: Whenever I've played "Elevation" at home the way the chorus kicks in makes me think it's skipped a couple of seconds. Same thing when it's over the airwaves too, apparently.
	12:13pm Handy Haversack: I am in the office for the first time since January and was sorting out a bunch of books to drop off for people and left my door open with "Elevation" playing for the whole hall. I didn't even notice till I got back. It just felt right to be hearing it.
	12:14pm Hoboken Jack: Hi EFD, Frank, Handy, Baggy, all! Always interested in those early Earth & Fire recordings before they teamed up with Wind.
	12:15pm slugluv1313: Television segueing into Chi Coltrane -- LOVE IT! 🔥🔥🔥 greetings, EFD! Everyone! getting ready for a 1pm zoom appointment -- but will be listening 🖤😻💜😻🖤

	12:16pm HyperDose: Your presence is felt and appreciated, SlugLuv!
	12:17pm listener phillip (in the bronx): Good afternoon fellow "funksters" I am 99% omicorn free save for my contagious cough. But that will be over soon
	12:18pm Frank In Queens: Hiya Jack
	12:20pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack, Frank, luka, slugluv, tim, everyone!
	12:20pm pgalub: Killer opening set efd! JAAAAACK! Handy!
	12:20pm McGroovey: What a conundrum: listen to EFD? Or watch "Gaslight" (the movie)? I haven't seen Gaslight in 25 years, and it's on now!
	12:21pm Asheville Jon: gaslight is available for free on youtube
	12:21pm Handy Haversack: Pete!
	12:22pm Asheville Jon: www.youtube.com...
	12:22pm McGroovey: Whereas is I listen to EFD, I'll spend money and buy more records because there's always something I absolutely have to get NOW when I listen to EFD (or Belock or Todd or Scott W or ...)
	12:23pm medson: Hola efd and everyone. Sounding great
	12:23pm K8: Yay x-ray spex!!! Hey Evan and everybody...
	12:24pm ChukAmok: Glad to hear that you're feeling better phillip (in the bronx)!
	12:24pm ?: Poseur
	12:24pm tim from washington: I'm going to chug my coffee to kick an extra kick out of X-Ray Spex!
	12:24pm Jerry Rubino: Poseur
	12:26pm Hoboken Jack: Hey HyperD, PEEEEETE, McGroove, k8, Medson Man, posing question mark
	12:26pm tim from washington: Now I'm putting down my coffee to chug a Fullers!
	12:26pm Asheville Jon: this set is making me crave the SMAH today!
	12:26pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): what up e-funk!?!
	12:27pm medson: Hey Jack
	12:27pm Handy Haversack: That's how they getcha, McGroovey!
	12:29pm tim from washington: I wish Nazareth sounded like Budgie.
	12:34pm Alvy Singer: Hi FIQ..I'm sure the Clark Gillies news was hard to take. He reluctantly battled the heavyweights that's for sure.
	12:34pm Morgan: hi efd and all. i thought it was the banshee’s budgie who had passed too
	12:34pm Susan & Bryan: Transcend Dental in Woodstock
	12:35pm Handy Haversack: My endodontist is a bass player, and my regular dentist is highly accomplished flautist. Apparently, this is not uncommon. The manual dexterity needed for dentistry and music are similar, and so people who have both the talent and the opportunity tend to self-select for both.
	12:36pm Susan & Bryan: Bruce Milner caters to musicians who hate dentists :)
	12:37pm Handy Haversack: Dang, thought you said Slift at first! I'm sure it will still be good.
	12:38pm tim from washington: 5 Euros in Helsinki. Do you pick up a Earth & Fire 45 or get a jarjalanpiirakka?
	12:38pm Marley P. Dogg: EFD! Handy! G’day everyone!
	12:39pm efd: Susan & Bryan on the case with the Every Mother's Son dentist info! Thanks guys!
	12:40pm Van: Howdy EFD and everybody!
	12:40pm karlward: A perfectly sunny day for the 70s/now EFD nexus
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Marley! tim, can I attempt to double my money in a game of skill?
	12:43pm K8: This Cindy album has been getting a lot of play at our house recently...really enjoyed Olivia's interview with Karina Gill on Monday.
	12:44pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and low-slung guitar players.
	12:44pm Handy Haversack: I was about to type "hey, at our house too!" until I realized who was commenting, and from which house. O life.
	12:44pm prof.fuzz: Hi EFD! Popping in for a few minutes of music between classes today.
	12:45pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I'm a high-slung guitar player.
	12:45pm K8: Feels weird, doesn't it, Handy? xo
	12:45pm karlward: Carmichael: no one can see me when I low slung air guitar in my mirror how did you know?
	12:45pm prof.fuzz: Hi Handy! K8! Tim! All the other Funkies!
	12:46pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Carmichael, prof.fuzz! And efd, congrats on David Ortiz. AND on Schilling falling off the ballot and hopefully soon off the face of the planet.
	12:46pm K8: Hey Prof. Fuzz! karlward! these comment boards are like a party...i miss parties.
	12:46pm Van: I like to vary my guitar slunging... normally depending on the weight of whatever is on my shoulder :)
	12:47pm tim from washington: Hey Prof! How's the semester starting out?
	12:48pm vinylmonkee: Heck yeah Swivs!
	12:48pm Marley P. Dogg: Ageeed Handy - Curt needs to go away forever
	12:48pm McGroovey: OK. I elected to stick with EFD over Gaslight, and now I need the Dancer record.
	12:48pm Ochre Ogre: Hi Evan!
	12:48pm Van: Digging this Billy Swivs
	12:49pm Handy Haversack: I have clicky-starred this cut in at least eight metadata permutations. Looks like we have reached lucky no. 9!
	12:49pm McGroovey: And the Billy Swivs record
	12:50pm Will the Sound Guy: I have the 45, a great decision indeed 👍
	12:51pm medson: I love this 45
	12:52pm Carmichael: Tertiary
	12:52pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Third-ish
	12:52pm tim from washington: The third?
	12:52pm Handy Haversack: I too have ordered the 45. Still need to find a 45 adapter ...
	12:52pm Spankyflop: Runner-up?
	12:52pm morphe': "second"
	12:52pm Rich in Washington: Prepenultimate?
	12:53pm McGroovey: Dancer record: www.chocolatecoveredrecords.com...
	12:53pm karlward: Second
	12:53pm Morgan: the second?
	12:53pm Van: Buttafuocotimate
	12:53pm Devin B.: Karlward got it
	12:54pm McGroovey: I would say that the best word for second is "second".
	12:54pm luka: pretty sure you just mean second there
	12:54pm Zabadak: Pretty sure it’s just “second”
	12:54pm Bridget: I believe it’s SECOND!
	12:54pm Sam: Penordinate
	12:54pm Lake Hiawatha Doug: Antepentultimate according to the Google.
	12:54pm Spankyflop: Secondary
	12:54pm luka: FIRST!!
	12:54pm Handy Haversack: "One to Two": Olivia confirmed!
	12:54pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Don't hold it against him. He's upset because he can't find the Billy Swivs 45.
	12:55pm devlawn: Sophomore.
	12:55pm Morgan: act ii
	12:55pm tim from washington: Oh I get it. It's called "the set after the first but before the third: set.
	12:55pm karlward: First is a strike, second is a spare
	12:55pm McGroovey: Antepentultimate = third from last Pentultimate = second fun last Ultimate = last
	12:55pm steveo: antidisestablishmentultimate
	12:55pm Asheville Jon: what is "whirdle" and how/where do you play it? so cornfused
	12:55pm Handy Haversack: In any given set of sets ...
	12:56pm Therese: From Wordhippo.com (AKA the first hit in my google search for "antonym to penultimate"): The word penultimate typically refers to the second from last in a series. There are no categorical antonyms for this word. However, one could loosely use second as an antonym.
	12:56pm Will the Sound Guy: Handy www.americanrecorder.com...
	12:56pm steveo: "wordle"
	12:56pm devlawn: Come on there is the phrase used in music "sophomore slump"
	12:56pm Morgan: another
	12:56pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): How about calling it "Le Fred"? It's both goofy AND fancy.
	12:56pm Therese: though I do like "penordinate"
	12:56pm ChukAmok: @AshevilleJon www.powerlanguage.co.uk...
	12:56pm Sam: Actually the opposite of penultimate would be ultimate pen. But wait, call in the next 60 seconds and you’ll get a SECOND ultimate pen, just pay separate shipping.
	12:56pm karlward: Handy: I am only interested in the set of all uninteresting sets
	12:57pm Asheville Jon: hmm, ok. thanks, i'll czech it out!
	12:58pm ChukAmok: It's just another word puzzle, but I like it as a supplement to the daily NYT Xword.
	12:58pm K8: Off to Zoom classes...so happy I got to catch your first hour today, EFD! Thank you!
	12:58pm John T.: You have physical media acquisition and storagfe issues too, huh? :)
	12:59pm Rich in Washington: I recently got the Cherry Red's British Pub Rock comp Surrender To The Rhythm and I've yet to crack the shrink wrap on it, great though it looks.
	12:59pm FletcherNYC: Holy smokes!
	12:59pm prof.fuzz: @Tim: New semester is going ok. We're remote until the end of next week, and then we'll see if they send us back to the classroom...
	12:59pm Morgan: in major arcana tarot convention, it would be the Magician set
	12:59pm efd: thanks everyone, I guess I'll juswt stick with "second" :/
	12:59pm steveo: Also, it is supposed to snow a foot this weekend, unless it doesn't
	12:59pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Will. I completely blanked on checking with the local record stores, so I'll do that first. Tell the kittens I miss them, K8!
	1:00pm tim from washington: Whoa! This kicks ass! This is like Rush wearing the Spiders From Mars stage costumes.
	1:00pm McGroovey: Used records are great, because Mrs McGroovey can never ask me why I've never taken the shrink wrap off that new record I've never opened and listened to.
	1:00pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Rococo is like Styx with a different singer.
	1:01pm Rich in Washington: That Urchins comp looks fantastic. Must get.
	1:01pm Morgan: is hoard a bad word now
	1:02pm McGroovey: @Handy I happen to have a large surplus of 45 rpm adapters. If I were seeing you soon, if just stick a couple in my pocket as I went out the door ...
	1:02pm the Hurston moor-elf: This ducks ltd. has a Sarah Records kind of vibe. Nice.
	1:02pm tim from washington: 18 cigarettes is 2 short of a six pack.
	1:03pm McGroovey: In for this Ducks Ltd album, but I umm haven't gotten around to listening to it yet. I listened to last year's EP a lot, so I automatically bought this when it came out
	1:04pm Handy Haversack: Oh, McGroovey, some good news: The Biden admin canceled the leases for the Argentinian copper-mining outfit that was going to set up right outside the Boundary Waters. Not permanent protection, but the removal of one sword of Damocles. And thanks! (Obligatory TMBG reference!)
	1:04pm McGroovey: "In for" means "I got", when autocorrect intervenes.
	1:04pm efd: yeah, my accumulation problem is not limited to physical mediah honestly. And another Bandcamp Friday is on the horizon!
	1:05pm prof.fuzz: All Hail the Return of Bandcamp Friday!
	1:06pm tim from washington: I went to grapefruit records to look for the Pretty Things comp. I didn't fin it but I see that thery're having a pretty big sale. Lots of Roy Montgomery and Dead C records for cheap.
	1:06pm Van: Feb 4th is the next one, right?
	1:07pm prof.fuzz: @Van: Yes. Feb 4 is the next Bandcamp Friday.
	1:07pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Yeah, between WFMU and The Wire, my bandcamp wishlist fills up. Then I buy all of it on a Friday, and then I just continue listening to WFMU. This will continue until my hard drive is full.
	1:07pm Van: Thanks, prof!
	1:08pm McGroovey: I also have too many books. That problem was made worse by cleaning out my parents' house a couple years ago. My dad was a visitors l biscuit's reader, and a former college professor (literature). "visitors l biscuit's" is what autocorrect thought I meant when I typed "voracious". It was too hilarious to erase.
	1:08pm Morgan: on bandcamp friday they give a higher percentage of saies to artists?
	1:08pm Handy Haversack: I am feeling your pain, Woods. And McGroovey. But I feel it in a four-room Brooklyn apartment that is also its own hallway and animal shelter.
	1:09pm Figgsrock: Hearing Young Fresh Fellows (even a cover) on the radio is fantastic.
	1:09pm prof.fuzz: @Morgan: Yup. 100% to the artists/labels.
	1:10pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I built a whole room for books. 16x16x9. It wasn't enough.
	1:11pm Morgan: thanks, good to know fuzz
	1:12pm Marie: I have an accumulation problem with clothes and books, though the pandemic stopped my clothes accumulating. Digging the show!
	1:14pm Morgan: i have a ton of underground/indie comics that refuse to part with but all of my new media are digital now
	1:16pm SWK: My old band played to Cake Shop to literally only the bartender. That one hurt.
	1:16pm Morgan: one great thing about having parents who barely finished high school is you’re not inheriting any fine libraries
	1:18pm ChukAmok: I have been finding some great music on Bandcamp lately that I have not been able to wishlist for BC Fridays. One could say that I am a "Visitors l Biscuit's" listener.
	1:19pm ChukAmok: SWK: What was your old band? I worked at Cake Shop, but in the record store part.
	1:19pm Asheville Jon: ok, got the wordle in 5 guesses, is that good?
	1:19pm egould310: Hell yeah!!
	1:19pm Morgan: scott thompson is in next week? thats a coup efd!
	1:20pm efd: hell yeah Morgan!
	1:20pm SWK: @chuk we were called The Grains from NB active 2010-2014. We were okay.
	1:20pm captain beef fart: Next Wednesday afternoon is looking up
	1:20pm Marie: just learned that there's a Japanese word for the accumulation of books that pile up without being read--tsundoku--I heard there was a French word for it and found that tidbit as I was searching for it.
	1:20pm ChukAmok: If you enjoyed it then I'd say so Jon! There's always the chance that it can never be solved in the allotted guesses, but that has yet to happen.
	1:21pm efd: (not in person, but a coup nonetheless!)
	1:21pm Marie: is that radio sedition?
	1:21pm Ochre Ogre: Weeded out a lot of vinyl though the years. Working on organizing tons of paper image stuff for art reference... former vinyl junkie now image addict.
	1:21pm ChukAmok: @SWK Ah, that was after the bulk of my time with Cake Shop. I played some pretty spare shows there as well, and I was local.
	1:22pm Asheville Jon: i am really confused as to how to start it. i used the green letter in the "example" and thought it was supposed to be in the word. the example of the one that is "correct but not in correct location" wasn't even in the word. so how do you know how to begin guessing the word?
	1:22pm tim from washington: I'm looking forward to next week already! This weill be fun hearing the story of Mouth Congress.
	1:23pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I hate puzzles and games so wordle has no power over me.
	1:23pm Carmichael: You just choose a random word, Jon. I try to use one that has the most frequently used letters in english (IMO).
	1:23pm ChukAmok: @SWK I just assumed that "NB" meant Nebraska, but those aren't even the proper initials. Does it mean New Brunswick?
	1:24pm Handy Haversack: Exbats! Yay!
	1:24pm Asheville Jon: thanks Carmichael, appreciate the tip
	1:25pm SWK: @chuk yes New Brunswick NJ
	1:25pm Van: Have you guys heard of Absurdle? Same idea as Wordle, but the answer changes and gives bogus hints to drive you insane, basically.
	1:26pm Androu B.: Hi, efd and all the Funksters here! Been tuned in since the start, but just started listening 15 minutes ago, and just the mention of KiTH with this set is getting me in the mood to remenisce about my favorite KiTH skits and moments, like Mr. "Squishing Your Head!" guy and Leonard (IIRC the character's name).
	1:27pm Robm: Hello fellow listeners love the tips about wordle
	1:28pm Androu B.: In fact, I'll be saving my reminiscences for next week's show.
	1:29pm Morgan: efd @ 1:21 he is still an awesome guest
	1:31pm Androu B.: Speaking of "wordle", that's something new to me. What's the object of that game?
	1:31pm Handy Haversack: Goodness, this is something. I wonder if Bas knows of them.
	1:32pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Androu B: Too annoy people on social media with the results.
	1:32pm efd: @Van I read about Absurdle the other day... that is a bridge too far for me.
	1:34pm efd: @Androu it's a word guessing game. You get 6 guesses, and with each guess you find out which letters are in the word you're trying to guess, and whether they're in the same position as the word you guessed. www.powerlanguage.co.uk...
	1:35pm Spankyflop: Nice Sisters of Mercy vibe on that palais ideal track
	1:38pm Mister Dobalina: Mo' horn, mo' horn !!!
	1:38pm asheville jon: Oh yeah, there it is!
	1:38pm HyperDose: Thank you for giving the people what they need, efd!
	1:38pm ChukAmok: Just tried to play Sweardle, but I don't think I know all of, or maybe even enough, bad words.
	1:39pm Doobois: LMAO
	1:39pm prof.fuzz: On that happy airhorn note, I've gotta fire up Teams for a couple more classes this afternoon. Stay well, y'all!
	1:41pm Androu B.: @efd I see. So It's like playing "Wheel Of Fortune" without the wheel and the big cash prizes (or for the old school folx, like Hangman).
	1:41pm Listener Robert: Just guessing...does Mouth Congress wear funny getups like KISS? What else would "mouth congress" mean but "kiss"?
	1:42pm luka: Pissed Jeans was a force to be reckoned with live i tell you what
	1:45pm tim from washington: efd - next time say 'Micturated Dungarees".
	1:45pm Androu B.: I'm guessing the name of the band is supposed to hint at Scott's and Paul's "out" identities.
	1:49pm Marie: love this
	1:49pm Handy Haversack: Dang it, missed the SMAH! Anyone ever read This Is Memorial Device? An oral history of a Scottish postpunk scene that ever existed. Almost a perfect book.
	1:50pm Handy Haversack: Wait, did I also miss something about Pissed Jeans?
	1:51pm tim from washington: Digging these synths boogies!
	1:52pm efd: Guest DJ set from Matt Korvette of Pissed Jeans on Mona's show Friday, Handy
	1:54pm Will the Sound Guy: that's going to be pretty cool, I'll have to check it out
	1:55pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, efd! I keep getting pulled away from the radio to drop off books. Almost done.
	1:56pm tim from washington: I haven't even heard of that book, Handy. When did it come out?
	1:56pm Mister Dobalina: Head Bop
	1:56pm timinoak: Great song
	1:57pm Van: @Handy - that book sounds great. Has anyone ever wrote one about the postpunk scene in Louisville, KY?
	1:58pm karlward: Those synth sequences, I need them like vitamins
	1:59pm timinoak: Right?! like vitamins. totally
	1:59pm karlward: Oh no I am at risk of synth sequence vitamin overdose
	2:00pm Mister Dobalina: alright! the dance section of the show...woohoo.
	2:00pm karlward: I don't care you just keep wiggling that synth modulation wheel
	2:00pm bob dublon..: @EFD...Evan ...your never did answer me if you thot that my idea of using the band Plasticland for your pop rocks segment would work?????? oh and btw Chi Coltrane (your ex girlfriend is from Racine)
	2:00pm Androu B.: @efd Has Tame Impala released any new material recently?
	2:01pm efd: @Bob It doesn't seem like a good fit to me at the moment, but I'll keep it in mind. Not sure what you mean by the last part of your comment?
	2:01pm efd: @Androu Not sure
	2:02pm Marie: coolio
	2:02pm Mister Dobalina: Getting hammered at an airport sounds like a pretty expensive venture, considering alcohol prices at an airport.
	2:02pm Dan from Delco: I miss the days of getting hammered in an airport
	2:04pm Marie: @Dan--me too
	2:05pm Dan from Delco: Used to expense those to the company I was working for
	2:05pm johnk77: @mrdob u r correct east to drink up any per-diems @theairport in the before times
	2:05pm ChukAmok: I do not enjoy flying while even the slightest bit tipsy. Its ginger ale and/or water for me.
	2:06pm johnk77: typo easy
	2:07pm Handy Haversack: Oh! Congrats on the 150th Pop Roxx, efd! It was great! tim, 2017? I think it's OOP at least in the states already. Out of stock at Powell's and the Strand currently.
	2:08pm karlward: Rap it out
	2:08pm karlward: Like hug it out, but with beatz
	2:09pm morphe': what was the Spray song about the kitty in space?
	2:09pm Figgsrock: Ooh, a bonus EFD shift! Nice.
	2:09pm tim from washington: Thanks Handy. Interlibrary Loan here I come!
	2:10pm Androu B.: @morphe' Felicette (Space Cat)
	2:10pm karlward: morphe': "Félicette (space cat)" on spray.bandcamp.com...
	2:11pm Marie: Gotta say, I think that is horrible what they did to that cat, and no animals should be sent to space (without their consent).......... @)
	2:11pm Handy Haversack: 100 percent, Marie. Hard to find any joy in that story.
	2:12pm Androu B.: Brings to mind the story of Russia's first space travelling dog Laika.
	2:12pm efd: I agree, and I didn't think the song came across as a celebration of what happened? More like a mournful remembrance...?
	2:13pm bob dublon: @EFD i was just fuckin with you bout Chi coltrane lol i know you never lived in Wisconsin..but you might want to give the Song ...Pop Op Drops by Plasticland a listen..thanks Evan..we did Uncle Floyd and Cbgb in the 80s..
	2:13pm efd: I can understand not wanting to hear about/be reminded of it, though.
	2:14pm Handy Haversack: efd, I need to listen again? I guess I thought it was sort of crafting a hero narrative for the cat in celebration? But I could def. be wrong.
	2:14pm Morgan: PA senate bill 1024 is with the law & justice committee and if any of them are wfmu fans, vote yes please
	2:15pm efd: @Handy I could be too, I'm going more on the minor key-ness of the music
	2:16pm Morgan: don’t shoot animals out into space :( send elon musk
	2:17pm Marie: yeah, so much mistreatment of animals just casually accepted and discussed--I can't take it--I try to "shut my ears"---I was involved with an animal rights group a few years ago but have dropped off since Covid. BTW, a SpaceX satellite is now careening towards the moon! (just read about it)
	2:19pm Handy Haversack: Gotcha, efd. And in case you missed it: Oh! Congrats on the 150th Pop Roxx, efd! It was great! Always a favorite segment. Looking forward to Friday!
	2:19pm Marie: @ Morgan--Yeah! hee hee hee
	2:19pm efd: thanks Handy!
	2:21pm Kat in Chicago: Lol are they covering Sexual Harrassment
	2:22pm morphe': Thanks Androu... https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/felicette-first-cat-space-finally-gets-memorial-180974062/
	2:23pm efd: @Kat they are!
	2:26pm Marie: This guy is thinking of the ducks @)
	2:27pm morphe': Yeah Marie - they later killed Fellicite to examine her brain !!!!
	2:27pm mrdonutsu: Totally digging this set!
	2:28pm Marie: @Morphe--that is really sad. And I bet they barely learned anything.
	2:32pm Joe B: hey efd and everyone
	2:33pm Handy Haversack: Bon ... o? Hey, Joe B!
	2:34pm Fishtown Mike: Great show EFD! Thanks for putting it together! I'm really looking forward to the Mount Congress interview next week.
	2:35pm Marie: Joe B, the people's champ! Hi

	2:43pm Mister Dobalina: This def to the clicky star treatment!

	2:44pm Handy Haversack: I'm hoping it updates to pre-clicky-starred when it goes from sngle to single. This band was on fire live last fall.

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from January 26, 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. Nov 6th, Noon - 3pm: The Metal District III: Kicked Out Of The Hellraiser! (More info...)
EFD’s hair-metal-loving cousin Evan “Snake” Davies was dying to return to the airwaves in October after a four-year absence. However, this request was vetoed over concerns that his appearance might have had a deleterious effect on our Hellraiser efforts. He’s back today, though, spinning his favorite ‘80s (mostly) hard rock and hair metal just for you. Don’t (or maybe do) miss it!

January 26, 2022: wind had the day off

	12:10pm tim from washington: efd! efd! efd!
	12:11pm tim from washington: Thanks for the Elevation, efd.
	12:11pm Figgsrock: Whenever I've played "Elevation" at home the way the chorus kicks in makes me think it's skipped a couple of seconds. Same thing when it's over the airwaves too, apparently.
	12:13pm Handy Haversack: I am in the office for the first time since January and was sorting out a bunch of books to drop off for people and left my door open with "Elevation" playing for the whole hall. I didn't even notice till I got back. It just felt right to be hearing it.
	12:14pm Hoboken Jack: Hi EFD, Frank, Handy, Baggy, all! Always interested in those early Earth & Fire recordings before they teamed up with Wind.
	12:15pm slugluv1313: Television segueing into Chi Coltrane -- LOVE IT! 🔥🔥🔥 greetings, EFD! Everyone! getting ready for a 1pm zoom appointment -- but will be listening 🖤😻💜😻🖤
	12:15pm Mister Dobalina: This is one tart pear.
	12:16pm luka: love this Morgan Delt track. good afternoon.
	12:16pm HyperDose: Your presence is felt and appreciated, SlugLuv!
	12:17pm listener phillip (in the bronx): Good afternoon fellow "funksters" I am 99% omicorn free save for my contagious cough. But that will be over soon
	12:18pm Frank In Queens: Hiya Jack
	12:20pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack, Frank, luka, slugluv, tim, everyone!
	12:20pm pgalub: Killer opening set efd! JAAAAACK! Handy!
	12:20pm McGroovey: What a conundrum: listen to EFD? Or watch "Gaslight" (the movie)? I haven't seen Gaslight in 25 years, and it's on now!
	12:21pm Asheville Jon: gaslight is available for free on youtube
	12:21pm Handy Haversack: Pete!
	12:22pm Asheville Jon: www.youtube.com...
	12:22pm McGroovey: Whereas is I listen to EFD, I'll spend money and buy more records because there's always something I absolutely have to get NOW when I listen to EFD (or Belock or Todd or Scott W or ...)
	12:23pm medson: Hola efd and everyone. Sounding great
	12:23pm K8: Yay x-ray spex!!! Hey Evan and everybody...
	12:24pm ChukAmok: Glad to hear that you're feeling better phillip (in the bronx)!
	12:24pm ?: Poseur
	12:24pm tim from washington: I'm going to chug my coffee to kick an extra kick out of X-Ray Spex!
	12:24pm Jerry Rubino: Poseur
	12:26pm Hoboken Jack: Hey HyperD, PEEEEETE, McGroove, k8, Medson Man, posing question mark
	12:26pm tim from washington: Now I'm putting down my coffee to chug a Fullers!
	12:26pm Asheville Jon: this set is making me crave the SMAH today!
	12:26pm Listener Jonny in South Central... (Ohio): what up e-funk!?!
	12:27pm medson: Hey Jack
	12:27pm Handy Haversack: That's how they getcha, McGroovey!
	12:29pm tim from washington: I wish Nazareth sounded like Budgie.
	12:34pm Alvy Singer: Hi FIQ..I'm sure the Clark Gillies news was hard to take. He reluctantly battled the heavyweights that's for sure.
	12:34pm Morgan: hi efd and all. i thought it was the banshee’s budgie who had passed too
	12:34pm Susan & Bryan: Transcend Dental in Woodstock
	12:35pm Handy Haversack: My endodontist is a bass player, and my regular dentist is highly accomplished flautist. Apparently, this is not uncommon. The manual dexterity needed for dentistry and music are similar, and so people who have both the talent and the opportunity tend to self-select for both.
	12:36pm Susan & Bryan: Bruce Milner caters to musicians who hate dentists :)
	12:37pm Handy Haversack: Dang, thought you said Slift at first! I'm sure it will still be good.
	12:38pm tim from washington: 5 Euros in Helsinki. Do you pick up a Earth & Fire 45 or get a jarjalanpiirakka?
	12:38pm Marley P. Dogg: EFD! Handy! G’day everyone!
	12:39pm efd: Susan & Bryan on the case with the Every Mother's Son dentist info! Thanks guys!
	12:40pm Van: Howdy EFD and everybody!
	12:40pm karlward: A perfectly sunny day for the 70s/now EFD nexus
	12:41pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Marley! tim, can I attempt to double my money in a game of skill?
	12:43pm K8: This Cindy album has been getting a lot of play at our house recently...really enjoyed Olivia's interview with Karina Gill on Monday.
	12:44pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and low-slung guitar players.
	12:44pm Handy Haversack: I was about to type "hey, at our house too!" until I realized who was commenting, and from which house. O life.
	12:44pm prof.fuzz: Hi EFD! Popping in for a few minutes of music between classes today.
	12:45pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I'm a high-slung guitar player.
	12:45pm K8: Feels weird, doesn't it, Handy? xo
	12:45pm karlward: Carmichael: no one can see me when I low slung air guitar in my mirror how did you know?
	12:45pm prof.fuzz: Hi Handy! K8! Tim! All the other Funkies!
	12:46pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Carmichael, prof.fuzz! And efd, congrats on David Ortiz. AND on Schilling falling off the ballot and hopefully soon off the face of the planet.
	12:46pm K8: Hey Prof. Fuzz! karlward! these comment boards are like a party...i miss parties.
	12:46pm Van: I like to vary my guitar slunging... normally depending on the weight of whatever is on my shoulder :)
	12:47pm tim from washington: Hey Prof! How's the semester starting out?
	12:48pm vinylmonkee: Heck yeah Swivs!
	12:48pm Marley P. Dogg: Ageeed Handy - Curt needs to go away forever
	12:48pm McGroovey: OK. I elected to stick with EFD over Gaslight, and now I need the Dancer record.
	12:48pm Ochre Ogre: Hi Evan!
	12:48pm Van: Digging this Billy Swivs
	12:49pm Handy Haversack: I have clicky-starred this cut in at least eight metadata permutations. Looks like we have reached lucky no. 9!
	12:49pm McGroovey: And the Billy Swivs record
	12:50pm Will the Sound Guy: I have the 45, a great decision indeed 👍
	12:51pm medson: I love this 45
	12:52pm Carmichael: Tertiary
	12:52pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Third-ish
	12:52pm tim from washington: The third?
	12:52pm Handy Haversack: I too have ordered the 45. Still need to find a 45 adapter ...
	12:52pm Spankyflop: Runner-up?
	12:52pm morphe': "second"
	12:52pm Rich in Washington: Prepenultimate?
	12:53pm McGroovey: Dancer record: www.chocolatecoveredrecords.com...
	12:53pm karlward: Second
	12:53pm Morgan: the second?
	12:53pm Van: Buttafuocotimate
	12:53pm Devin B.: Karlward got it
	12:54pm McGroovey: I would say that the best word for second is "second".
	12:54pm luka: pretty sure you just mean second there
	12:54pm Zabadak: Pretty sure it’s just “second”
	12:54pm Bridget: I believe it’s SECOND!
	12:54pm Sam: Penordinate
	12:54pm Lake Hiawatha Doug: Antepentultimate according to the Google.
	12:54pm Spankyflop: Secondary
	12:54pm luka: FIRST!!
	12:54pm Handy Haversack: "One to Two": Olivia confirmed!
	12:54pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Don't hold it against him. He's upset because he can't find the Billy Swivs 45.
	12:55pm devlawn: Sophomore.
	12:55pm Morgan: act ii
	12:55pm tim from washington: Oh I get it. It's called "the set after the first but before the third: set.
	12:55pm karlward: First is a strike, second is a spare
	12:55pm McGroovey: Antepentultimate = third from last Pentultimate = second fun last Ultimate = last
	12:55pm steveo: antidisestablishmentultimate
	12:55pm Asheville Jon: what is "whirdle" and how/where do you play it? so cornfused
	12:55pm Handy Haversack: In any given set of sets ...
	12:56pm Therese: From Wordhippo.com (AKA the first hit in my google search for "antonym to penultimate"): The word penultimate typically refers to the second from last in a series. There are no categorical antonyms for this word. However, one could loosely use second as an antonym.
	12:56pm Will the Sound Guy: Handy www.americanrecorder.com...
	12:56pm steveo: "wordle"
	12:56pm devlawn: Come on there is the phrase used in music "sophomore slump"
	12:56pm Morgan: another
	12:56pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): How about calling it "Le Fred"? It's both goofy AND fancy.
	12:56pm Therese: though I do like "penordinate"
	12:56pm ChukAmok: @AshevilleJon www.powerlanguage.co.uk...
	12:56pm Sam: Actually the opposite of penultimate would be ultimate pen. But wait, call in the next 60 seconds and you’ll get a SECOND ultimate pen, just pay separate shipping.
	12:56pm karlward: Handy: I am only interested in the set of all uninteresting sets
	12:57pm Asheville Jon: hmm, ok. thanks, i'll czech it out!
	12:58pm ChukAmok: It's just another word puzzle, but I like it as a supplement to the daily NYT Xword.
	12:58pm K8: Off to Zoom classes...so happy I got to catch your first hour today, EFD! Thank you!
	12:58pm John T.: You have physical media acquisition and storagfe issues too, huh? :)
	12:59pm Rich in Washington: I recently got the Cherry Red's British Pub Rock comp Surrender To The Rhythm and I've yet to crack the shrink wrap on it, great though it looks.
	12:59pm FletcherNYC: Holy smokes!
	12:59pm prof.fuzz: @Tim: New semester is going ok. We're remote until the end of next week, and then we'll see if they send us back to the classroom...
	12:59pm Morgan: in major arcana tarot convention, it would be the Magician set
	12:59pm efd: thanks everyone, I guess I'll juswt stick with "second" :/
	12:59pm steveo: Also, it is supposed to snow a foot this weekend, unless it doesn't
	12:59pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Will. I completely blanked on checking with the local record stores, so I'll do that first. Tell the kittens I miss them, K8!
	1:00pm tim from washington: Whoa! This kicks ass! This is like Rush wearing the Spiders From Mars stage costumes.
	1:00pm McGroovey: Used records are great, because Mrs McGroovey can never ask me why I've never taken the shrink wrap off that new record I've never opened and listened to.
	1:00pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Rococo is like Styx with a different singer.
	1:01pm Rich in Washington: That Urchins comp looks fantastic. Must get.
	1:01pm Morgan: is hoard a bad word now
	1:02pm McGroovey: @Handy I happen to have a large surplus of 45 rpm adapters. If I were seeing you soon, if just stick a couple in my pocket as I went out the door ...
	1:02pm the Hurston moor-elf: This ducks ltd. has a Sarah Records kind of vibe. Nice.
	1:02pm tim from washington: 18 cigarettes is 2 short of a six pack.
	1:03pm McGroovey: In for this Ducks Ltd album, but I umm haven't gotten around to listening to it yet. I listened to last year's EP a lot, so I automatically bought this when it came out
	1:04pm Handy Haversack: Oh, McGroovey, some good news: The Biden admin canceled the leases for the Argentinian copper-mining outfit that was going to set up right outside the Boundary Waters. Not permanent protection, but the removal of one sword of Damocles. And thanks! (Obligatory TMBG reference!)
	1:04pm McGroovey: "In for" means "I got", when autocorrect intervenes.
	1:04pm efd: yeah, my accumulation problem is not limited to physical mediah honestly. And another Bandcamp Friday is on the horizon!
	1:05pm prof.fuzz: All Hail the Return of Bandcamp Friday!
	1:06pm tim from washington: I went to grapefruit records to look for the Pretty Things comp. I didn't fin it but I see that thery're having a pretty big sale. Lots of Roy Montgomery and Dead C records for cheap.
	1:06pm Van: Feb 4th is the next one, right?
	1:07pm prof.fuzz: @Van: Yes. Feb 4 is the next Bandcamp Friday.
	1:07pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Yeah, between WFMU and The Wire, my bandcamp wishlist fills up. Then I buy all of it on a Friday, and then I just continue listening to WFMU. This will continue until my hard drive is full.
	1:07pm Van: Thanks, prof!
	1:08pm McGroovey: I also have too many books. That problem was made worse by cleaning out my parents' house a couple years ago. My dad was a visitors l biscuit's reader, and a former college professor (literature). "visitors l biscuit's" is what autocorrect thought I meant when I typed "voracious". It was too hilarious to erase.
	1:08pm Morgan: on bandcamp friday they give a higher percentage of saies to artists?
	1:08pm Handy Haversack: I am feeling your pain, Woods. And McGroovey. But I feel it in a four-room Brooklyn apartment that is also its own hallway and animal shelter.
	1:09pm Figgsrock: Hearing Young Fresh Fellows (even a cover) on the radio is fantastic.
	1:09pm prof.fuzz: @Morgan: Yup. 100% to the artists/labels.
	1:10pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I built a whole room for books. 16x16x9. It wasn't enough.
	1:11pm Morgan: thanks, good to know fuzz
	1:12pm Marie: I have an accumulation problem with clothes and books, though the pandemic stopped my clothes accumulating. Digging the show!
	1:14pm Morgan: i have a ton of underground/indie comics that refuse to part with but all of my new media are digital now
	1:16pm SWK: My old band played to Cake Shop to literally only the bartender. That one hurt.
	1:16pm Morgan: one great thing about having parents who barely finished high school is you’re not inheriting any fine libraries
	1:18pm ChukAmok: I have been finding some great music on Bandcamp lately that I have not been able to wishlist for BC Fridays. One could say that I am a "Visitors l Biscuit's" listener.
	1:19pm ChukAmok: SWK: What was your old band? I worked at Cake Shop, but in the record store part.
	1:19pm Asheville Jon: ok, got the wordle in 5 guesses, is that good?
	1:19pm egould310: Hell yeah!!
	1:19pm Morgan: scott thompson is in next week? thats a coup efd!
	1:20pm efd: hell yeah Morgan!
	1:20pm SWK: @chuk we were called The Grains from NB active 2010-2014. We were okay.
	1:20pm captain beef fart: Next Wednesday afternoon is looking up
	1:20pm Marie: just learned that there's a Japanese word for the accumulation of books that pile up without being read--tsundoku--I heard there was a French word for it and found that tidbit as I was searching for it.
	1:20pm ChukAmok: If you enjoyed it then I'd say so Jon! There's always the chance that it can never be solved in the allotted guesses, but that has yet to happen.
	1:21pm efd: (not in person, but a coup nonetheless!)
	1:21pm Marie: is that radio sedition?
	1:21pm Ochre Ogre: Weeded out a lot of vinyl though the years. Working on organizing tons of paper image stuff for art reference... former vinyl junkie now image addict.
	1:21pm ChukAmok: @SWK Ah, that was after the bulk of my time with Cake Shop. I played some pretty spare shows there as well, and I was local.
	1:22pm Asheville Jon: i am really confused as to how to start it. i used the green letter in the "example" and thought it was supposed to be in the word. the example of the one that is "correct but not in correct location" wasn't even in the word. so how do you know how to begin guessing the word?
	1:22pm tim from washington: I'm looking forward to next week already! This weill be fun hearing the story of Mouth Congress.
	1:23pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I hate puzzles and games so wordle has no power over me.
	1:23pm Carmichael: You just choose a random word, Jon. I try to use one that has the most frequently used letters in english (IMO).
	1:23pm ChukAmok: @SWK I just assumed that "NB" meant Nebraska, but those aren't even the proper initials. Does it mean New Brunswick?
	1:24pm Handy Haversack: Exbats! Yay!
	1:24pm Asheville Jon: thanks Carmichael, appreciate the tip
	1:25pm SWK: @chuk yes New Brunswick NJ
	1:25pm Van: Have you guys heard of Absurdle? Same idea as Wordle, but the answer changes and gives bogus hints to drive you insane, basically.
	1:26pm Androu B.: Hi, efd and all the Funksters here! Been tuned in since the start, but just started listening 15 minutes ago, and just the mention of KiTH with this set is getting me in the mood to remenisce about my favorite KiTH skits and moments, like Mr. "Squishing Your Head!" guy and Leonard (IIRC the character's name).
	1:27pm Robm: Hello fellow listeners love the tips about wordle
	1:28pm Androu B.: In fact, I'll be saving my reminiscences for next week's show.
	1:29pm Morgan: efd @ 1:21 he is still an awesome guest
	1:31pm Androu B.: Speaking of "wordle", that's something new to me. What's the object of that game?
	1:31pm Handy Haversack: Goodness, this is something. I wonder if Bas knows of them.
	1:32pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Androu B: Too annoy people on social media with the results.
	1:32pm efd: @Van I read about Absurdle the other day... that is a bridge too far for me.
	1:34pm efd: @Androu it's a word guessing game. You get 6 guesses, and with each guess you find out which letters are in the word you're trying to guess, and whether they're in the same position as the word you guessed. www.powerlanguage.co.uk...
	1:35pm Spankyflop: Nice Sisters of Mercy vibe on that palais ideal track
	1:38pm Mister Dobalina: Mo' horn, mo' horn !!!
	1:38pm asheville jon: Oh yeah, there it is!
	1:38pm HyperDose: Thank you for giving the people what they need, efd!
	1:38pm ChukAmok: Just tried to play Sweardle, but I don't think I know all of, or maybe even enough, bad words.
	1:39pm Doobois: LMAO
	1:39pm prof.fuzz: On that happy airhorn note, I've gotta fire up Teams for a couple more classes this afternoon. Stay well, y'all!
	1:41pm Androu B.: @efd I see. So It's like playing "Wheel Of Fortune" without the wheel and the big cash prizes (or for the old school folx, like Hangman).
	1:41pm Listener Robert: Just guessing...does Mouth Congress wear funny getups like KISS? What else would "mouth congress" mean but "kiss"?
	1:42pm luka: Pissed Jeans was a force to be reckoned with live i tell you what
	1:45pm tim from washington: efd - next time say 'Micturated Dungarees".
	1:45pm Androu B.: I'm guessing the name of the band is supposed to hint at Scott's and Paul's "out" identities.
	1:49pm Marie: love this
	1:49pm Handy Haversack: Dang it, missed the SMAH! Anyone ever read This Is Memorial Device? An oral history of a Scottish postpunk scene that ever existed. Almost a perfect book.
	1:50pm Handy Haversack: Wait, did I also miss something about Pissed Jeans?
	1:51pm tim from washington: Digging these synths boogies!
	1:52pm efd: Guest DJ set from Matt Korvette of Pissed Jeans on Mona's show Friday, Handy
	1:54pm Will the Sound Guy: that's going to be pretty cool, I'll have to check it out
	1:55pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, efd! I keep getting pulled away from the radio to drop off books. Almost done.
	1:56pm tim from washington: I haven't even heard of that book, Handy. When did it come out?
	1:56pm Mister Dobalina: Head Bop
	1:56pm timinoak: Great song
	1:57pm Van: @Handy - that book sounds great. Has anyone ever wrote one about the postpunk scene in Louisville, KY?
	1:58pm karlward: Those synth sequences, I need them like vitamins
	1:59pm timinoak: Right?! like vitamins. totally
	1:59pm karlward: Oh no I am at risk of synth sequence vitamin overdose
	2:00pm Mister Dobalina: alright! the dance section of the show...woohoo.
	2:00pm karlward: I don't care you just keep wiggling that synth modulation wheel
	2:00pm bob dublon..: @EFD...Evan ...your never did answer me if you thot that my idea of using the band Plasticland for your pop rocks segment would work?????? oh and btw Chi Coltrane (your ex girlfriend is from Racine)
	2:00pm Androu B.: @efd Has Tame Impala released any new material recently?
	2:01pm efd: @Bob It doesn't seem like a good fit to me at the moment, but I'll keep it in mind. Not sure what you mean by the last part of your comment?
	2:01pm efd: @Androu Not sure
	2:02pm Marie: coolio
	2:02pm Mister Dobalina: Getting hammered at an airport sounds like a pretty expensive venture, considering alcohol prices at an airport.
	2:02pm Dan from Delco: I miss the days of getting hammered in an airport
	2:04pm Marie: @Dan--me too
	2:05pm Dan from Delco: Used to expense those to the company I was working for
	2:05pm johnk77: @mrdob u r correct east to drink up any per-diems @theairport in the before times
	2:05pm ChukAmok: I do not enjoy flying while even the slightest bit tipsy. Its ginger ale and/or water for me.
	2:06pm johnk77: typo easy
	2:07pm Handy Haversack: Oh! Congrats on the 150th Pop Roxx, efd! It was great! tim, 2017? I think it's OOP at least in the states already. Out of stock at Powell's and the Strand currently.
	2:08pm karlward: Rap it out
	2:08pm karlward: Like hug it out, but with beatz
	2:09pm morphe': what was the Spray song about the kitty in space?
	2:09pm Figgsrock: Ooh, a bonus EFD shift! Nice.
	2:09pm tim from washington: Thanks Handy. Interlibrary Loan here I come!
	2:10pm Androu B.: @morphe' Felicette (Space Cat)
	2:10pm karlward: morphe': "Félicette (space cat)" on spray.bandcamp.com...
	2:11pm Marie: Gotta say, I think that is horrible what they did to that cat, and no animals should be sent to space (without their consent).......... @)
	2:11pm Handy Haversack: 100 percent, Marie. Hard to find any joy in that story.
	2:12pm Androu B.: Brings to mind the story of Russia's first space travelling dog Laika.
	2:12pm efd: I agree, and I didn't think the song came across as a celebration of what happened? More like a mournful remembrance...?
	2:13pm bob dublon: @EFD i was just fuckin with you bout Chi coltrane lol i know you never lived in Wisconsin..but you might want to give the Song ...Pop Op Drops by Plasticland a listen..thanks Evan..we did Uncle Floyd and Cbgb in the 80s..
	2:13pm efd: I can understand not wanting to hear about/be reminded of it, though.
	2:14pm Handy Haversack: efd, I need to listen again? I guess I thought it was sort of crafting a hero narrative for the cat in celebration? But I could def. be wrong.
	2:14pm Morgan: PA senate bill 1024 is with the law & justice committee and if any of them are wfmu fans, vote yes please
	2:15pm efd: @Handy I could be too, I'm going more on the minor key-ness of the music
	2:16pm Morgan: don’t shoot animals out into space :( send elon musk
	2:17pm Marie: yeah, so much mistreatment of animals just casually accepted and discussed--I can't take it--I try to "shut my ears"---I was involved with an animal rights group a few years ago but have dropped off since Covid. BTW, a SpaceX satellite is now careening towards the moon! (just read about it)
	2:19pm Handy Haversack: Gotcha, efd. And in case you missed it: Oh! Congrats on the 150th Pop Roxx, efd! It was great! Always a favorite segment. Looking forward to Friday!
	2:19pm Marie: @ Morgan--Yeah! hee hee hee
	2:19pm efd: thanks Handy!
	2:21pm Kat in Chicago: Lol are they covering Sexual Harrassment
	2:22pm morphe': Thanks Androu... https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/felicette-first-cat-space-finally-gets-memorial-180974062/
	2:23pm efd: @Kat they are!
	2:26pm Marie: This guy is thinking of the ducks @)
	2:27pm morphe': Yeah Marie - they later killed Fellicite to examine her brain !!!!
	2:27pm mrdonutsu: Totally digging this set!
	2:28pm Marie: @Morphe--that is really sad. And I bet they barely learned anything.

	2:39pm Mister Dobalina: Ohhh, went up 2 degrees, now a balmy 16° around the way. Time to head out and run errands.
	2:39pm tim from washington: I stepped out a bit and missed Matrimony. I'm really intrigued. I never get tired of Australian punk.
	2:39pm tim from washington: Nice!
	2:40pm Amir Hoolihamian: Never too much ska
	2:41pm Mister Dobalina: This damn dry air is driving me crazy, off to get a filter for the humidifier. Good time, efd.
	2:41pm Handy Haversack: OK, I keep meaning to pull the Two Tone CD comp out. This time I really mean it! Went to clicky-star Die! Die! Die! and already had. Went to Wishlist it and already had. I am consistent, at least.
	2:43pm Morgan: ah i had to get this sweeping promises record
	2:43pm Mister Dobalina: This def to the clicky star treatment!
	2:43pm egould310: It’s got to stop! It’s got to stop! Thanks for the great show efd. Really really excited about the interview with Mouth Congress next week. Must listen radio.
	2:44pm Handy Haversack: I'm hoping it updates to pre-clicky-starred when it goes from sngle to single. This band was on fire live last fall.
	2:44pm Morgan: this hits all the 80s marks
	2:45pm Joe B: yeah! bodega!
	2:49pm Figgsrock: Bodega, another Bandcamp wishlist add because of EFD.

	2:51pm efd: @Handy, update successful?
	2:51pm Figgsrock: Okay, I started singing "For Your Eyes Only" by Sheena Easton over the intro to this Aeon Station song and it fit almost perfectly?
	2:53pm Handy Haversack: Ha, it is, efd! The system works!
	2:54pm clarke: nifty, ya'll!!
	2:54pm Handy Haversack: Damn, it always ends too soon. Thanks, efd! Great show today, top to bottom and all the ships at sea! Later on, funksters!
