Hello Evan -- Didn't the Wind have a later EP/LP called GUEST OF THE STAPHS with a nutty cover and actually it wasn't nearly as good as Where It's At.
  11:44pm
efd:

Hi Will - honestly I'm not sure, but it's certainly possible. Where It's At is great!
  11:45pm
Laurie:

Yay, you played my boys!
  11:53pm
Laurie:

I saw the Hate Bombs play about a million times by the way during their day. No crossover between the two bands, by the way. Hate Bombs are from Ft. Lauderdale.
  11:57pm
PB:

I'll be your league. If it's not that competitive, I'll be sure to be the jerk that makes it so.
  12:03am
efd:

Stingy, glad you got those tix - I hadn't even seen your comments when I picked up your call.
  12:35am
Joe:

Caesar Fiberglass rules so hard, he needs a helmet.

that set was fucking -awesome- to drive to.
  12:36am
Joe:

Smash Hits throws you a serious curveball about halfway through - for a few minutes, I wasn't even sure I was listening to the same band.
  12:37am
Kendall:

Gahh I always tune in right after midnight ticket oasis I need to set an alarm for myself or something.
  12:39am
Danne D:

I might be up the b-ball EFD. Though Sept/Oct aren't exactly my easiest months with this sort of thing obviously.

(oh and haven't done a b-ball league for like eons so my team is likely to be pathetic)

Anyhow e-mail me with details :) Can't let ya not have a league!
  12:45am
efd:

cool Danne, I'll email you tomorrow. Pathetic teams are welcome! :)
  12:45am

You're right Joe - it really is a completely different band.

I've really become addicted to this show!
  12:46am
c fiberglass:

I've also realized I need to work on my math skills to post on here ;)
  12:49am
efd:

catching up on comments - Will, I don't have any Cybotron albums, if it's any consolation. :) I was talking about my vast array of Ultravox albums and CDs.
  12:50am
john:

The vast array gets vaster, as the Ure-era albums are being reissued as double-disc sets. I didn't see them til '83, dammit!
  12:54am
stingy d:

Macnie:

  1:05am

  1:20am
efd:

Stingy, you might want to try to get some sleep as well, if your typing skills are any indicator. :)
  1:25am
stingy d:

  1:29am
Jessica:

If I had more than 0.725% of a clue, I'd totally sign up. You know that, right?
Time to read back and assure myself that several of the fairer of the EFD brigade is down.
  1:30am
Joe:

You rock, Ceez
  1:35am
Joe:

Evan Funk Davies is the most modest DJ on wfmu! No other DJ is as modest as him!
  1:39am
efd:

Joe, it must be due to my stoic New England upbringing.
  1:39am
aharon:

Oh man. I remember reading "Fantasyland" in one sitting and having strange, hyperintense dreams about fielding stats for a few days after. Right after I emailed you about that league, the same process started again. I fear the fantasy, but cannot resist.

BTW, alles was ich hab=everything that I have.
  1:42am
Danne D:

unsleeping for a minute :)
you can follow along with my team if you like Jessica, it can be like the blind leading the blind!

Evan does kick ass at being modest.
If there were a modesty smackdown my money would be on him.

now some zzzs for real.
  1:44am
Joe:

I'll be in the league! I pick "The Yankees".

I can do that, right?
  1:45am
john:

Joe, you can pick them, but you'll have to feed Sabathia yourself.
  1:47am
Sweenbean:

If no one else mentioned them, don't forget THRUSH (man from uncle) and KAOS (Get SMart). Im not sure on what the letters stand for, if anyhting. I think with Thrush, nothing.
  1:49am
john:

And CHUMP from Lancelot Link, Secret Chimp
  1:49am
Joe:

Oh god John, don't remind me.
  1:49am
efd:

ah, see, i think i was getting THRUSH mixed up with SMERSH.
  1:52am
john:

Evan, the difference is that only one of those can be treated with anti-fungals.
  1:57am
efd:

thanks for listening everyone! And it's not too late to join the Happy How Do You Do Fantasy Baseball league - email me or post a comment with your address and I'll let you know what you need to do.
