The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from March 24, 2008

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.

Listener comments!
	11:10pm Joe: Hello, funkmaster Davies. Feeling garage-y today, I see. Bueno.
	11:16pm efd: spoke too soon, Joe! I'm going to go out on a limb here and predict that any minute now, there will be a comment that references Drillbit Taylor.
	11:19pm C: Thanks for the go-go!
	11:21pm meg g.: evan--whuts shakin??? how was your easter weekend?? did you do anything kewwwwwl??? i went 2 c DRILLBIT TAYLOR,,,i loved it!!!!! yesterday i went to a special dinner,,have a kewwwl show,,,,,,,
	11:22pm efd: right on time!
	11:24pm J P: douchemaster is my curse word of the week
	11:24pm Joe: I guess every bar has it's regulars.
	11:25pm punk: that was an amazing exchange.
	11:27pm C: Ha-ha. This may even top "Hillary in the House": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knBNX_evIOo
	11:27pm punx: whaaat?
	11:28pm Droll: I thought Go-Go was a hip hop style from the DC-Baltimore area. Whatever, I'll pledge another $100 if you shut the McCain tune off now... Or make it bed music. Whatever... [John McCain whispered like it's some Cirrone record?!?!]
	11:29pm C: You're right, Droll. I posted kind of late. It was for Trouble Funk, pure DC go-go right there.
	11:30pm Dee Snyder?: SAME! same same saaaaame!
	11:30pm Droll: Okay -- another $100 to stop butchering Twisted Sister. Do they get out paying royalties because it's political speech? Is there also some "For those who support Barak, We Salute You"?
	11:30pm Greg from Detroit: don't ignore Detroit Octane's "Simply Barack Obama-sistable": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPLtotzqH0M there's a "making of" too
	11:31pm dave: up next: the corpse of bon scott with "highway to hillary"
	11:31pm Charleton Heson: Twisted Sister Obama? You magnificent bastard!
	11:38pm Joe: The best part of this McCain video so far: the older woman's pants being partially erased by the blue-screening or green-screening or whatever so she looks like a fully corporeal torso on a pair of legs that look like they're trying to be teleport away somewhere less embarrassing... but can't quite make it. I'm not so sure this is a genuine piece of unintentional hilarity... it might be an intentional spoof, or maybe even a half decent attempt by the DNC at going viral?
	11:41pm C: You might be onto something, Joe. Maybe Obama's camp is behind the virals. That would explain the McCain and equally damaging Hillary video. I thought the Barrack one was pretty good.
	11:45pm Sybil: Hi EFD! Happy baseball season! (6 hours and 15 minutes to go!)
	11:48pm efd: haha, thanks Sybil! if I didn't have to go to work tomorrow ( and if I weren't going to be up until 3am) I'd consider getting up at 6am to watch the game!
	11:55pm punkrawk: I don't really understand why you are playing this.
	11:57pm Laurie: I don't understand your not-so-creative spelling of "rock."
	11:57pm punkrawk: oh, I thought I was listening to Z100 for a minute.
	12:05am Jill: black mountain = bong rip time.
	12:08am adam in chicago: sweeeeeeeet black mountainnnnnnnnnnn
	12:08am meatwad: the bong has been ripped.
	12:11am Droll: [Whispering to punkwark] I hear ya. "Love in the Year 3000" is an anagram of "Ahoy, Evil Teen 3000"! Oh shit! Can they see this?
	12:11am zo: bonghits? oh okaay
	12:13am Joe: You guys have been spinning the shit out of this Dirtbombs record, not that I mind, of course, but why no Gories?
	12:40am E.I.P.: I like this set. It doesn't feel like a Monday anymore.
	12:52am Laurie: re: The Heavy. First time I've heard this band! Good stuff :)
	12:57am adam in chi: @Laurie: agreed, that was good stuff EFD, got a label for The Heavy?
	12:58am efd: whoops, just added - it's Counter. I know they're on myspace somewhere, a listener mentioned that when I played them a couple of weeks ago.
	12:59am efd: anybody want to look up the html entity for the degree symbol?
	1:00am adam in chi: found em: http://www.myspace.com/theheavy73
	1:02am John: See, now last week you hinted you'd play "Shannon," but Wire's nearly as good. Great show!
	1:03am adam: ° should work
	1:04am Sybil: wanting has nothing to do with it: & 176 ; if & deg ; doesn't work (no spaces)
	1:05am Laurie: option + 0 on macs, but I have a feeling Uncle Ken doesn't spend our donations on shiny macs.
	1:16am Laurie: Goodnight, EFD. Goodnight, WFMU listeners.
	1:16am efd: such a helpful bunch! my listeners rule!
	1:16am efd: goodnight, Laurie!
	1:16am John: Springtime Mama's cool too. I can't seem to find my copy of The Best of Henry Gross, so I'm counting on you...
	1:18am John: He coulda been bigger than Andrew Gold...
	1:23am efd: oh, i wish! i would have much rather heard "Springtime Mama" at the beginning of all those episodes of Golden Girls I watched...
	1:30am Droll: I can't get no -- Old Man! It's a Stones-London mash-up!
	1:32am John: www.henrygross.com (with five seconds of seriously loud home page music, heavy rocker that he is). Who knew? Actually a song about a dead dog would have been a really funny opener for Golden Girls.
	1:33am efd: i don't think Betty White would have approved.
	1:35am John: "animal lover that she is" --Gene Rayburn and/or Brett Somers talking about Betty every damn time she was on Match Game and there was a pet-related clue
