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.

Happy Groundhog Day all (how some station hasn't caught on to doing a "Groundhog Day" marathon the way they do with "A Christmas Story" is beyond me, but that's another discussion.
Now's the time to start brown-bagging it for a few weeks people and checking the couches for change - marathon time is coming in but 4 weeks and Evan's gonna need to show that his Funk Army stands ready to deliver!!!

Danne D:
He's the only drummer I'll sing for (aside from EFD of course, though I haven't had the chance yet with EFD) :)

Joe:
PS - just paid off my pledge and got your premium! It's really good! It might even have gotten better with age!
efd:
Thanks everyone for the Tommy Roe info.... maybe we ALL should ask about a box set! I'd love to see him get the Sandoval treatment, if such a thing were possible.

Sybil:
I had not heard that Soft Tags song before, and, wow. A whole album about Mandelbrot?
(I'm too depressed over Yoyo's retirement to think about basebell. I hardly ever think about it, only seven times a day or so. ;P)
Sybil:
Aharon:
Sybil: a DOUBLE album, yet.

As for Aharon, I know Beane is a shrewd operator who gets a lot out of his talent, but I'd rather have the fully built snowman than have to rely on a new one that's not of proven construction.
Btw, I predict EFD takes out the brass knuckles with his team this season and shows us all what for.

Aharon:
I, too, have a new strategy if I'm honored enough to rejoin the fanball this coming year, which is to do the opposite of what I did last year. Not brass knuckles; maybe nougat.
And John, there were rumors that he was adding juice to the snow all along. Gotta say, it makes sense: I mean, the top globe on his best snowmen was larger than any of the other globes. Plus they were yellow.
Danne D:
Well while it's true that I can debate the merits of snowmen and their role in fantasy baseball, I must be going :)
Btw, while I am rooting for the Saints to win, I have a feeling the Colts will pull it out (at least the Jets aren't there).
Colts 38 Saints 27
So there you go :)
Have a good night Funk Friends!
To EFD, I'll check out for your Jimmy the Funkesque picks - see you in 2 weeks EFD!!
