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.

G, I have to think there was some good-natured ribbing involved there. It's very possible that there was a "hunk" spin-off, though, but I genuinely don't recall it.

Btw, Evan and everyone - you have to check out Catie's tumblr of great Hoof n Mouth drawings when tumblr is acting less shitty. Our hero is prominently featured
Danne D:
@Van - Evan was in fact one of the many fine drummers during Hoof N Mouth - not sure which particular songs.
@EFD - great you are doing a Ronnie Montrose tribute! RIP Ronnie :(

@Danne - Julie's Dark Night of the Soul was my gateway show, upon doing a Twitter search of "Toyah" about a year ago. And I'm getting deeper & deeper in to WFMU :) Loving it. Except that Sharpling guy. :)

@Destroit I disagree about the Stern/Scharpling comparison. Not a Stern fan at all. Tom's show is an interesting mix of real calls, skits and music. Stern is not that - it's more bathroom oriented.
Agree with that great old-school TV editorial reference :)
Philosophically I think it's great that there are shows to not like on WFMU - if you can listen to the station 24/7 then the station must be missing something IMO and should be putting that on the air.

Good night all.
Oh, and hey! You can still pledge! :)
...or is that so next year now. Dunno. But giving all your money to FMU never goes out of style. Right? :)
Anyway. Thanks Evan. Thanks all the fellow commenters on the Kenzo playlist.

There is no way to draw a bright line between that line of descent and Tom. He has a musical breadth Stern doesn't have and the strictly political talkers don't want. But Tom didn't invent the term or concept "GOMP". Tom himself does get into political stuff sometimes -- e.g., Limbaugh commentary last night... But he's mainly a cultural commentator/satirist -- movies, tv, comedy, music, current trends, etc.
