	11:15pm meg g.: ohhhhhhhhhh double bowie,,i love it!!
	11:16pm Michael from the Left Coast: I've always wondered what are some of those sounds on this album--like the almost beeping noise in the background. Like the hooting noise in "Fashion"
	11:18pm Lang: OMG You are NOT playing this! Except you ARE! I love you EFD!!!
	11:20pm Michael from the Left Coast: How about the Four Horsemen--Rockin' is My Business to follow? There's a song I haven't heard in fifteen years
	11:23pm toni daytona: evan,,,meg g. is a new friend of mine please make her feel welcome,,,=)
	11:23pm Chad From Oregon: There are baseless rumors EVERY year that Bowie will play Coachella.
	11:24pm efd: Toni, believe it or not I already figured that out. Hi everyone, glad you're enjoying the show so far!
	11:24pm nec13: Does Bowie still have his own ISP?
	11:25pm Michael from the Left Coast: True Chad but this year there are fewer big names to catch attention and I imagine they'll throw stupid money at him to do it
	11:29pm meg g.: evan could you play my ultimate fave bowie tune "fame" thaks again evan
	11:30pm efd: "Meg," why would I play that after I just played two other David Bowie songs?
	11:33pm nec13: How about some David Jones instead?
	11:34pm meg g.: you could make tonite a david bowie nite,rite evan?
	11:41pm Hermínio: Hi Evan, great show! Greetings from Natal/ Brazil...
	11:43pm meg g.: the way i see it evan,as a dee jay you have magical powers u could play anything you want to please us girls/listeners,,,ohhh happy tuesday!!!
	11:43pm Michael from the Left Coast: EFD--That's Caleb Quaye (pronounced Kway). He also toured with Hall and Oates
	11:47pm john from otisville: he played w/ Rod the Mod a lot, and anyone near that London scene
	11:47pm john: And actually most of Hookoot played with Elton in the early days, though Im not sure how often--I know they were nearly all on the great Tumbleweed Connection.
	11:48pm Amanda: Congrats Harry, indeed! Every new day should be unwrapped like a precious gift.
	11:49pm nec13: Good song. I've always liked the Young Rascals.
	11:50pm john from otisville: he wore glasses and had a slight astigmatism in his left eye
	11:51pm Michael from the Left Coast: Hey EFD as a fellow drummer I think you'd appreciate the multi part interview on YouTube with Dino Danelli (interview done by Liberty Devito--Billy Joel's former drummer).
	11:52pm bennett4senate: cutting diamonds with laser beams
	11:56pm nec13: One of my all-time favorite baseball teams: the '67 Red Sox. Yaz, Reggie Smith, Tony C, etc.
	11:58pm meg g.: well i got to scat evan i'm so sorry for wasting your time tonite. i assure ya that i'll be back next week.
	12:05am observant: bfn tex
	12:09am camel: i'm sleepy already!!!!
	12:13am nec13: Evan, have you ever listened to "Dancing in Your Head"? It's fantastic.
	12:15am Bummer: Saw erstwhile EFD fave Jeremy Jay last week--not very good. A little too introverted on stage, a little too prima donnaish about his reverb, and not fully engaged in his own songs. Of course, the lame, sparse audience may have had something to do with it.
	12:16am randy in NC: Re '67 Sox, 2 things I remember about that. 1) many (most?) of the Series games were played during the day and 2) they played them over the PA system at JFK Jr HS when I was there...
	12:34am efd: randy, I'm with you on the daytime World Series games, although strangely I remember that more with the '69 Mets-Orioles series, Too bad about the J. Jay show, Bummer - or Aharon, I presume. nec13, not sure what "Dancing In Your Head" is...? I'm prepared to feel ignorant now. Michael, I'm definitely more interested in Liberty DeVItto's interviewing, as opposed to his drumming. ;) I'll look for those clips.
	12:35am osvi: EFD, playing the ill conceived beats. Cant wait for the mini marathon, wanna give a little somethin' somethin' to the worlds greatest radio station! woot woot...
	12:37am toni daytona: efd---what do you think of my my friend,,aint she sweet??
	12:43am ?: her perfume is weird
	12:47am efd: osvi, thanks in advance - your support is appreciated. Toni, I assume we can expect to get donations from you and every single one of your friends. I'll be keeping an eye out.
	12:48am Bummer: Since I'm oversharing on the comment board (w/cover blown), I'll note that I've had the misfortune to stand behind James McNew at far too many shows.
	1:17am Joe: the Swingin' Neckbreakers are pretty good. But I always get this creepy nagging Black Crowesy kind of tingle in the back of my head when I hear them and it kind of ruins everything. And I don't even -really- hate the Black Crowes, even though I sorta do. The Black Angels, on the other hand, I am exceptionally passionate about. Seeing them live was like a religious experience.
	1:18am Danne D: hey guys! hey efd! I have to catch up on this great set on the archives :( But...did you guys hear about the celebrity phone slave for next week? :)
	1:21am Joe: well, I'm not sure I'd call myself a "celebrity," per se...
	1:22am efd: Harry Harrison is going to be my phone slave?? Joe, have you seen the Neckbreakers live? That might disabuse you of this misplaced Black Crowes association.
	1:23am Danne D: LOL actually it was someone nearer and dearer to my heart :)
	1:24am Joe: you know I can't refuse an EFD reccomendation. I'll put them on "The List". With a bullet.
	1:28am Danne D: pouts Toni-Style nobody cares that I'll be phone slaving next week 8( that's okay call in and pledge everyone :) Show the love for the Funk Man!
	1:31am kamper: Just tuned in and it looks like I missed a killer show. Thank god for the arkives!
	1:32am Danne D: LOL awwww thx for the shout out Evan :) Puleeze pledge what you can folks. Consider it kinda like a 2nd Cinco De Funko :)
	1:33am efd: Danne D, we kid because we love. Welcome, kamper!
	1:33am efd: Think of it as more of a Casho de Funko
	1:38am Danne D: yup yup Just take like $10 off each Christmas gift and pass it along to FMU :) Just don't tell Santa I said to do that!
	1:39am Joe: I've just been openly encouraging people to deal drugs and pledge the proceeds.
	1:40am kamper: The Swim has a Teardrop Explodes slash Julian Cope vibe to it
	1:40am Joe: but your idea is much better. Like, way better.
	1:42am Danne D: Or conversely cut $10 out of each bag of drugs you were going to give people for Christmas - kinda works the same way :)
	1:44am Michael from the Left Coast: For a moment there I thought this was an alternate version of Wunderbar by Tenpole Tudor
	1:46am Danne D: I had a zim zamm in my backyard growing up. As a result I play tennis ambidextrously. Ironically enough, though, I cannot swim.
	1:49am Michael from the Left Coast: EFD you know that Purdie is the drummer in the Broadway show Hair at the moment
	1:54am efd: I did not know that! Thanks for the info.
	1:58am kamper: A crest??
	1:59am Danne D: G'night everyone! Call early call often next week folks and pledge pledge pledge!!!! keep me busy next week :D
