	9:10pm Dave McGurgan: EFD
	9:10pm Destroit: Ha, efd in full celebrate pi mode already. Awesome.

	9:13pm Devo: Before I die, I I'd like another piece of pi
	9:15pm SteveL: re. Soft Moon "The label mentions it’s “recommended for paranoid train rides in a post-apocalyptic world.”' I would happily agree.
	9:16pm Mr. T's Mohawk: Diggin' Pisces!!!
	9:17pm miss cheri: evan excuse me while i go off topic for a bit,,but do you want me to fill you in on mlia kunis??
	9:18pm efd: Cheri, no, not particularly.
	9:18pm miss cheri: *mila kunis
	9:18pm Destroit: Soft Moon song was favorite circle song so far (5 x fast!). First I've heard of them.
	9:19pm miss cheri: ok..sorry efd,,,
	9:19pm SteveL: The Soft Moon link I found. http://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/44292?dm=1331774141
	9:20pm SteveL: If you like "Circles" by "Soft Moon", you'll love "Circles" by "Circles".
	9:21pm efd: SteveL, I think that link you posted is a circular reference.
	9:21pm SteveL: ...and I misspell the band name.
	9:21pm Destroit: Yep, loving circles by circles.
	9:22pm Gourmand: Pi r not square, pi r round.
	9:22pm SteveL: efd: Hard to say. Let you know when it comes back around.
	9:22pm PB: I happened to listen to Tom Rush's version of Joni Mitchell's The Circle Game last night (yeah, I'm old). Tom Rush's version is pretty good. I also liked that Soft Moon track - good stuff.
	9:23pm E.L.: Face = Melted.
	9:24pm SteveL: E.L.: You are correct sir.
	9:24pm Barkevious Shabazz: Pi r tasty
	9:24pm efd: Hey PB! I remember singing that song when I was in the chorus in 4th or 5th grade, but I think it was based on Joni Mitchell's (?) version.
	9:24pm miss cheri: well onward---like i said before i love bowie,,evan if you have time could you please play "changes" cause that's my fave bowie tune,,, thnx efd!!
	9:24pm john: Hey Evan! Got roped into a live draft league, which for some reason is drafting tonight, so wish me luck--and any suggestions will be gratefully appreciated!
	9:25pm PB: efd, now you're really making me feel old!
	9:26pm Barkevious Shabazz: @PB you think yr old, I had Space Oddity on eight track.
	9:28pm Taylor: I am now handing you the keys to the planet.
	9:29pm PB: Maybe it was that guy who calls you Evan Davies "Funk".
	9:33pm SteveL: Ya' know, Pi day used to be cool, but now that its popular its just like all the other mathematically-focused holidays.
	9:34pm David: It will always be the Midnight Ticket Oasis to me.
	9:36pm Aharon: In my experience, Warn Defever is at least 97% inscrutable on LP, in concert, and one-on-one, and all the more delightful for it.
	9:37pm Lacking a Cool-ometer: How's Natural Logarithm Day on the cool/formerly-cool continuum? 2.71828... FTW
	9:39pm Stu: Evan-could you play "Boogie with Stu"? It's my second favorite dog-themed Led Zeppelin song?
	9:41pm Destroit: Screw math, let's go with a faith based creationism program.
	9:42pm some other guy: now there are one too many songs about girlfriends in comas.
	9:43pm Danne D: Hi Funk Fans :) Whoa it must be baseball season as there's an Aharon sighting :) S'up EFD? Is the league line-up set?
	9:44pm Santorum: @Destroit I like yr thinkin
	9:44pm Andrew Waterloo: PI Day is just another crypto fascist scam brought us by the big corporate pie lobby
	9:45pm Danne D: @cool - e has it's own network E!
	9:45pm G: Hallmark is ginning up Pi Day to sell Happy Pi Day cards. is that it?
	9:47pm Danne D: I was all like "Yay a cover of Rockaway Beach" then I was all like "YAY - a SHONEN KNIFE cover of Rockaway Beach!"
	9:47pm Andrew Waterloo: that and I wouldn't mind a warm slice of apple pie right now
	9:47pm Andrew Waterloo: E eats everything
	9:47pm SteveL: DAMN!!! Must buy this.
	9:51pm PB: efd, Terry Malts is a (another great SF) band.
	9:51pm Danne D: @Andrew - a song that could've gone on more than 1 TMBG collection
	9:52pm Aharon: @PB: Have you ever seen them? I'd like to.
	9:53pm Danne D: This Marble Vanity is so great :)
	9:54pm PB: @aharon, haven't seen them yet.
	9:54pm miss cheri: evan---you won't play "changes" by david bowie?
	9:54pm G: Is this going on the short list for H&M 2013? :-P
	9:55pm Barkevious Shabazz: Marble Vanity offshoot band Thee Porcelain Commodes kick ass.
	9:55pm Danne D: Young Fresh Fellows do a killer cover of this song :)
	10:01pm miss cheri: well i'll be back in one hour,, see yall later!!
	10:02pm efd: G, we've got the horn section to do it, but I don't think so. :) I think Terry Malts are on tour, but I'm not sure how far east they're coming this time around. Cheri, did you not notice that I played David Bowie at the start of the show? I'm not going to play another Bowie song. Hey to Aharon, Danne, john, B. Shabazz, and everyone else!
	10:03pm Rigid Genre Programmer: @cheri: Listen to any classic rock station for an hour, and there's a 29.4% chance of hearing "Changes"
	10:05pm Destroit: @ Santorum: go phuck yourself. Hey Danne. :)
	10:05pm Aharon: Boy, it's great song after great song!
	10:06pm efd: Aharon, that's how I roll!
	10:06pm Destroit: Lol @ RGP!
	10:06pm miss cheri: evan i just love david bowie,, you'd have to excuse me,, efd
	10:07pm miss cheri: see you all at 11pm!
	10:10pm PB: @RGP, there is also a 100% chance that you will hear at least 3 Dead Zeppelin songs every hour on the hour.
	10:11pm cubicle carl: Mean Magic have a bandcamp page.
	10:12pm Rigid Genre Programmer: @PB: We spend a shitload on focus groups. We know what makes mainstream listeners stay on the station, and change the station.
	10:12pm Destroit: Ramble on!
	10:15pm SteveL: Great "Whole Lotta Love" and "War Pigs" mashup on Ken's show earlier today. Wax Audio/Whole Lotta Sabbath.
	10:15pm 13 Women: So easily replaced in efd's heart by a Marble Vanity!!!! MEN!!!!!
	10:15pm Destroit: David Gedge is great, Wedding Present is great.
	10:17pm Joe D.: I saw these guys play this song in Oakland two weeks ago! SOMEBODY tipped me off about it while I was there.
	10:18pm efd: @cubicle carl, thanks for the tip! I added the link to the playlist. @SteveL I was looking at the waxaudio site earlier myself, but didn't have a chance to preview anything.
	10:18pm Joe D.: Also I'm just tuning in... has "Hunkgate" been addressed already or...?
	10:18pm John L: Wedding Present are playing Le Poisson Rouge, in NYC, on March 22!!!
	10:19pm PB: Mother Knows Best by Throwing Up. Even if the track wasn't good I'd still like it.
	10:19pm efd: Joe, awesome! Glad you were able to make it to that show!
	10:20pm Barkevious Shabazz: Throwing Up and Thee Porcelain Commodes... Great double bill..
	10:20pm efd: Shh! Shhh! "Hunk"-gate was covered last week! We don't need to revisit it!
	10:23pm 13 Women: What did he hunk, and when did he hunk it? j/k
	10:24pm Joe D.: boo-urns! ooh, throwing up --> far out fangtooth !!! (still, boo-urns)
	10:24pm Michael from the Left Coast: English Beat opening for Squeeze in a few weeks on most Squeeze's US dates
	10:26pm PB: @Michael, how many original members of the Beat. Hopefully, Ranking Roger and Dave Wakeling at the very least. The Beat were terrific.
	10:29pm Michael from the Left Coast: I think only Dave Wakeling at this point--I know Roger has his own version of the Beat the plays in the UK
	10:32pm Michael from the Left Coast: Was the Doors' track a live track from europe?
	10:36pm efd: Hi Michael! Not sure - there's no indication on the jacket that the track is live (it's "Peace Frog").
	10:36pm David B (the other one): So are all these songs 3 minutes and 14 seconds long?
	10:37pm Destroit: Have fun John L! I think they are swinging by Detroit/Toledo shortly thereafter, I might check out both shows.
	10:39pm efd: Ha, no they are not, David B. I thought of that late this afternoon, but not in time to actually execute on it.
	10:40pm Michael from the Left Coast: EFD--I guess the Frog was the European connection for the Doors
	10:42pm Fridge: Get those salad sandwich fixins lined up on the kitchen counter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:43pm Destroit: Personally, I like sprouts fridge.
	10:46pm Destroit: Who the hell is lansing, and wow, what a great track!!
	10:46pm john: Tried to work up a cover of this once, mostly to be able to shout out "Chorus!"
	10:47pm Barkevious Shabazz: Wire track title exhibits pi creep.
	10:50pm efd: @Michael, could be! :) @john, that reason's good enough for me. @Destroit Sadly I have little info on Lansing-Dreiden, but that whole album was/is great!
	10:50pm ?: fyi Evan, Chazz Mervyn who worked on that European Theater comp says (on a blog): The USA release has 'Peace Frog' by the Doors replacing one track for which they couldn't get USA release rights.
	10:51pm efd: ah, thank you mystery commenter!
	10:52pm SteveL: This La Font track keeps growing on me.
	10:53pm Danne D: Yeah Harry!!!
	10:53pm SteveL: Happy how do ya do!
	10:54pm Title IX: "for you fellas!"
	10:55pm Barkevious Shabazz: Whither the Electrons?
	10:56pm G: http://oldmonmusic.blogspot.com/2009/04/aint-no-big-thing-was-big-thing.html
	10:58pm Danne D: I am stunned that the name "Electrons" came as a result of him being in chemistry class.
	10:59pm Holly in NC: @Destroit - just popping in for a sec- not 1 but 2 but 3 Lansing-Dreiden cds available @ Amazon for .01 each (+shipping)!
	11:00pm Randy in NC: The Electrons came and went without charging things up much...
	11:01pm nls: Evan, my fave version of Ain't No Big Thing is by the Radiants, 45 came out on Chess.
	11:03pm Danne D: Maybe you could have the wonderful Amanda sing the lyrics "Ticket Salad Sandwich Time" to that song :)
	11:04pm Camel: That was pitiful LMAO Keep working on it!
	11:04pm SteveL: Seconding Amanda. In fact, I volunteer her, (as she is not present.)
	11:05pm Camel: If Amanda doesn't want to do this, she has five minutes to say so. Otherwise, DONE & DONE!!!!!
	11:05pm miss cheri: well i got to go for the night,, i'm sorry evan & danne,,, btw danne are you hip to mila kunis?? good night all!!!
	11:06pm Camel: Let us know which Mila Kunis album is best. It's a music show!
	11:08pm Patrick: wait, Diarrhea Planet AND Liquor Store are taken as band names, fudge.....
	11:10pm Barkevious Shabazz: Hey, mom and dad, the music thing is really coming together. Our band name is Diarrhea Planet and the album is out on Douchemaster!
	11:11pm Mom and Dad: So it works out that we named you Dick?
	11:11pm Danne D: Good night Cheri. Yes I have heard of Mila Kunis.
	11:12pm Patrick: i bet their parents think they can do no wrong, its their pride aunt and republican uncle that dont get it
	11:12pm Destroit: Disco Claudja is hitting home. Nice stuff.
	11:13pm Mom and Dad: Claudja remade Fly Robin Fly?!
	11:13pm Danne D: No Mila Kunis in the archive seach, but Julie has played Mila Mar: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/39474
	11:13pm Andrew Waterloo: this is epic
	11:13pm Joe D: I highly recommend what might be their finest song, "Ghost with a Boner" the youtube video is just a picture of Rick Moranis with red eyes from Ghostbusters
	11:14pm George of Troy: Smokin'!
	11:14pm Barkevious Shabazz: Dick is preferable to Mila Kunis.
	11:14pm Destroit: Agreed Waterloo.
	11:15pm efd: I was enjoying it so much I let it just track into the next song!
	11:15pm Mom and Dad: Mila is this year's "It" girl. The Fucking Cake are so 2011.
	11:16pm George of Troy: Hands of a government man!
	11:17pm miss cheri: see you next week efd,,night!!
	11:18pm Patrick: ghost with a boner!! i dont want to watch it because what i am coming up with in my head is prob 1000 times better then what it really sounds like.
	11:18pm Destroit: Thanks Efd! A good dj always let's the record play!
	11:19pm Danne D: Ghost with a boner - is that the little known sequel to that Whoopi Goldberg movie?
	11:20pm Rickwaukee: 1980?
	11:20pm miss cheri: evan you are the king of funk!!!
	11:23pm Destroit: 1000$ says p. Hernandez was from Chicago.
	11:23pm Danne D: Wait, so why are we born again?
	11:24pm Mom and Dad: To die, in the end. He left that part out. Too depressing for a dancefloor tune.
	11:24pm efd: @Rickwaukee, close! Late 1978 (in France). @Destroit, Wikipedia says au contraire! And who am I to argue?
	11:25pm Danne D: More lyric repetition - Born to Be Alive or Devastator?
	11:26pm Destroit: Please not devastator.
	11:26pm Rickwaukee: or Turn Me Loose - Loverboy?
	11:26pm Danne D: Any particular inspiration for the Buffalo Heads baseball name, Evan?
	11:27pm Mom and Dad: Born, Born to Be Devastated! Born, Born to Be Devastated! Born, Born to Be Devastated! Born, Born to Be Devastated! vamp ad lib.
	11:28pm Danne D: please Devastator :)
	11:31pm Destroit: Haha, oh no, take your protein pills and put your helmet on.....:)
	11:31pm efd: there will be no devastating this evening.
	11:33pm SteveL: THAT is devastating news.
	11:33pm Danne D: I am Devastated, Evan.
	11:33pm efd: Danne, the Buffalo Heads was the name given to Bill Lee, Bernie Carbo, Fergie Jenkins and one or two others (Jim Willoughby?) when they were on the Sox in the mid-70s.
	11:34pm Danne D: Hmm, if Destroit gets a fantasy baseball team it could be the Detroit Devastators :)
	11:35pm Danne D: Never knew that, EFD. I keep thinking I wanna mix it up with a new name but New Jersey Knuckles is just full of goodness and the iconic Knuckles the Dog painting from FMU's collection is just the perfect logo.
	11:35pm Destroit: Thanks efd for a great show, Hernandez from France? Who knew( except from everyone on the interwebs) Great music, all around. Thanks!
	11:40pm Scuttle: Oooooh love the pagans- cant wait
	11:42pm miss cheri: evan--i promise starting next i won't be bugging you about mila kunis,,i give you my word!!
	11:42pm Destroit: I'm dangerous with baseball stats, WHIP you all night long.
	11:43pm miss cheri: *week
	11:43pm Mom and Dad: Too late for this week, eh?
	11:47pm Brian Kenny: Good choice young man.
	11:52pm David B (the other one): Has anyone seen the recently discovered short film by Robert Altman called "Modern Football"?
	11:52pm Danne D: EFD playing a song about FOOTBALL? especially during spring training? the mind boggles
	11:53pm David B (the other one): Evan, not sure if Chris has told you this yet, but the Funkasaurus was back on WWE Raw after being pulled for a month.
	11:55pm Danne D: Gotta get going :) Thanks for a great show as always, Evan. Hope everyone has a great night :)
	12:05pm Mike East: Catching the show on archive. Sounding great on Thursday morning. I should do this more often. You started off with one of my favorite Bowie tracks off one of my favorite Bowie albums (so hard to choose)! I especially love "All the Madmen" from that record.
	8:50am calzone!: Swell show Evan! Listening to the archive as well!
	10:15am efd: Thanks! I always love the archive comments!

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from March 14, 2012

View efd's profile

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.

<-- Previous playlist | Back to The Evan "Funk" Davies Show playlists | Next playlist -->

Upcoming events:

Wed. Nov 6th, Noon - 3pm: The Metal District III: Kicked Out Of The Hellraiser! (More info...)
EFD’s hair-metal-loving cousin Evan “Snake” Davies was dying to return to the airwaves in October after a four-year absence. However, this request was vetoed over concerns that his appearance might have had a deleterious effect on our Hellraiser efforts. He’s back today, though, spinning his favorite ‘80s (mostly) hard rock and hair metal just for you. Don’t (or maybe do) miss it!

	9:15pm SteveL: re. Soft Moon "The label mentions it’s “recommended for paranoid train rides in a post-apocalyptic world.”' I would happily agree.
	9:16pm Mr. T's Mohawk: Diggin' Pisces!!!
	9:17pm miss cheri: evan excuse me while i go off topic for a bit,,but do you want me to fill you in on mlia kunis??
	9:18pm efd: Cheri, no, not particularly.
	9:18pm miss cheri: *mila kunis
	9:18pm Destroit: Soft Moon song was favorite circle song so far (5 x fast!). First I've heard of them.
	9:19pm miss cheri: ok..sorry efd,,,
	9:19pm SteveL: The Soft Moon link I found. http://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/44292?dm=1331774141
	9:20pm SteveL: If you like "Circles" by "Soft Moon", you'll love "Circles" by "Circles".
	9:21pm efd: SteveL, I think that link you posted is a circular reference.
	9:21pm SteveL: ...and I misspell the band name.
	9:21pm Destroit: Yep, loving circles by circles.
	9:22pm Gourmand: Pi r not square, pi r round.
	9:22pm SteveL: efd: Hard to say. Let you know when it comes back around.
	9:22pm PB: I happened to listen to Tom Rush's version of Joni Mitchell's The Circle Game last night (yeah, I'm old). Tom Rush's version is pretty good. I also liked that Soft Moon track - good stuff.
	9:23pm E.L.: Face = Melted.
	9:24pm SteveL: E.L.: You are correct sir.
	9:24pm Barkevious Shabazz: Pi r tasty
	9:24pm efd: Hey PB! I remember singing that song when I was in the chorus in 4th or 5th grade, but I think it was based on Joni Mitchell's (?) version.
	9:24pm miss cheri: well onward---like i said before i love bowie,,evan if you have time could you please play "changes" cause that's my fave bowie tune,,, thnx efd!!
	9:24pm john: Hey Evan! Got roped into a live draft league, which for some reason is drafting tonight, so wish me luck--and any suggestions will be gratefully appreciated!
	9:25pm PB: efd, now you're really making me feel old!
	9:26pm Barkevious Shabazz: @PB you think yr old, I had Space Oddity on eight track.
	9:28pm Taylor: I am now handing you the keys to the planet.
	9:29pm PB: Maybe it was that guy who calls you Evan Davies "Funk".
	9:33pm SteveL: Ya' know, Pi day used to be cool, but now that its popular its just like all the other mathematically-focused holidays.
	9:34pm David: It will always be the Midnight Ticket Oasis to me.
	9:36pm Aharon: In my experience, Warn Defever is at least 97% inscrutable on LP, in concert, and one-on-one, and all the more delightful for it.
	9:37pm Lacking a Cool-ometer: How's Natural Logarithm Day on the cool/formerly-cool continuum? 2.71828... FTW
	9:39pm Stu: Evan-could you play "Boogie with Stu"? It's my second favorite dog-themed Led Zeppelin song?
	9:41pm Destroit: Screw math, let's go with a faith based creationism program.
	9:42pm some other guy: now there are one too many songs about girlfriends in comas.
	9:43pm Danne D: Hi Funk Fans :) Whoa it must be baseball season as there's an Aharon sighting :) S'up EFD? Is the league line-up set?
	9:44pm Santorum: @Destroit I like yr thinkin
	9:44pm Andrew Waterloo: PI Day is just another crypto fascist scam brought us by the big corporate pie lobby
	9:45pm Danne D: @cool - e has it's own network E!
	9:45pm G: Hallmark is ginning up Pi Day to sell Happy Pi Day cards. is that it?
	9:47pm Danne D: I was all like "Yay a cover of Rockaway Beach" then I was all like "YAY - a SHONEN KNIFE cover of Rockaway Beach!"
	9:47pm Andrew Waterloo: that and I wouldn't mind a warm slice of apple pie right now
	9:47pm Andrew Waterloo: E eats everything
	9:47pm SteveL: DAMN!!! Must buy this.
	9:51pm PB: efd, Terry Malts is a (another great SF) band.
	9:51pm Danne D: @Andrew - a song that could've gone on more than 1 TMBG collection
	9:52pm Aharon: @PB: Have you ever seen them? I'd like to.
	9:53pm Danne D: This Marble Vanity is so great :)
	9:54pm PB: @aharon, haven't seen them yet.
	9:54pm miss cheri: evan---you won't play "changes" by david bowie?
	9:54pm G: Is this going on the short list for H&M 2013? :-P
	9:55pm Barkevious Shabazz: Marble Vanity offshoot band Thee Porcelain Commodes kick ass.
	9:55pm Danne D: Young Fresh Fellows do a killer cover of this song :)
	10:01pm miss cheri: well i'll be back in one hour,, see yall later!!
	10:02pm efd: G, we've got the horn section to do it, but I don't think so. :) I think Terry Malts are on tour, but I'm not sure how far east they're coming this time around. Cheri, did you not notice that I played David Bowie at the start of the show? I'm not going to play another Bowie song. Hey to Aharon, Danne, john, B. Shabazz, and everyone else!
	10:03pm Rigid Genre Programmer: @cheri: Listen to any classic rock station for an hour, and there's a 29.4% chance of hearing "Changes"
	10:05pm Destroit: @ Santorum: go phuck yourself. Hey Danne. :)
	10:05pm Aharon: Boy, it's great song after great song!
	10:06pm efd: Aharon, that's how I roll!
	10:06pm Destroit: Lol @ RGP!
	10:06pm miss cheri: evan i just love david bowie,, you'd have to excuse me,, efd
	10:07pm miss cheri: see you all at 11pm!
	10:10pm PB: @RGP, there is also a 100% chance that you will hear at least 3 Dead Zeppelin songs every hour on the hour.
	10:11pm cubicle carl: Mean Magic have a bandcamp page.
	10:12pm Rigid Genre Programmer: @PB: We spend a shitload on focus groups. We know what makes mainstream listeners stay on the station, and change the station.
	10:12pm Destroit: Ramble on!
	10:15pm SteveL: Great "Whole Lotta Love" and "War Pigs" mashup on Ken's show earlier today. Wax Audio/Whole Lotta Sabbath.
	10:15pm 13 Women: So easily replaced in efd's heart by a Marble Vanity!!!! MEN!!!!!
	10:15pm Destroit: David Gedge is great, Wedding Present is great.
	10:17pm Joe D.: I saw these guys play this song in Oakland two weeks ago! SOMEBODY tipped me off about it while I was there.
	10:18pm efd: @cubicle carl, thanks for the tip! I added the link to the playlist. @SteveL I was looking at the waxaudio site earlier myself, but didn't have a chance to preview anything.
	10:18pm Joe D.: Also I'm just tuning in... has "Hunkgate" been addressed already or...?
	10:18pm John L: Wedding Present are playing Le Poisson Rouge, in NYC, on March 22!!!
	10:19pm PB: Mother Knows Best by Throwing Up. Even if the track wasn't good I'd still like it.
	10:19pm efd: Joe, awesome! Glad you were able to make it to that show!
	10:20pm Barkevious Shabazz: Throwing Up and Thee Porcelain Commodes... Great double bill..
	10:20pm efd: Shh! Shhh! "Hunk"-gate was covered last week! We don't need to revisit it!
	10:23pm 13 Women: What did he hunk, and when did he hunk it? j/k
	10:24pm Joe D.: boo-urns! ooh, throwing up --> far out fangtooth !!! (still, boo-urns)
	10:24pm Michael from the Left Coast: English Beat opening for Squeeze in a few weeks on most Squeeze's US dates
	10:26pm PB: @Michael, how many original members of the Beat. Hopefully, Ranking Roger and Dave Wakeling at the very least. The Beat were terrific.
	10:29pm Michael from the Left Coast: I think only Dave Wakeling at this point--I know Roger has his own version of the Beat the plays in the UK
	10:32pm Michael from the Left Coast: Was the Doors' track a live track from europe?
	10:36pm efd: Hi Michael! Not sure - there's no indication on the jacket that the track is live (it's "Peace Frog").
	10:36pm David B (the other one): So are all these songs 3 minutes and 14 seconds long?
	10:37pm Destroit: Have fun John L! I think they are swinging by Detroit/Toledo shortly thereafter, I might check out both shows.
	10:39pm efd: Ha, no they are not, David B. I thought of that late this afternoon, but not in time to actually execute on it.
	10:40pm Michael from the Left Coast: EFD--I guess the Frog was the European connection for the Doors
	10:42pm Fridge: Get those salad sandwich fixins lined up on the kitchen counter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:43pm Destroit: Personally, I like sprouts fridge.
	10:46pm Destroit: Who the hell is lansing, and wow, what a great track!!
	10:46pm john: Tried to work up a cover of this once, mostly to be able to shout out "Chorus!"
	10:47pm Barkevious Shabazz: Wire track title exhibits pi creep.
	10:50pm efd: @Michael, could be! :) @john, that reason's good enough for me. @Destroit Sadly I have little info on Lansing-Dreiden, but that whole album was/is great!
	10:50pm ?: fyi Evan, Chazz Mervyn who worked on that European Theater comp says (on a blog): The USA release has 'Peace Frog' by the Doors replacing one track for which they couldn't get USA release rights.
	10:51pm efd: ah, thank you mystery commenter!
	10:52pm SteveL: This La Font track keeps growing on me.
	10:53pm Danne D: Yeah Harry!!!
	10:53pm SteveL: Happy how do ya do!
	10:54pm Title IX: "for you fellas!"
	10:55pm Barkevious Shabazz: Whither the Electrons?
	10:56pm G: http://oldmonmusic.blogspot.com/2009/04/aint-no-big-thing-was-big-thing.html
	10:58pm Danne D: I am stunned that the name "Electrons" came as a result of him being in chemistry class.
	10:59pm Holly in NC: @Destroit - just popping in for a sec- not 1 but 2 but 3 Lansing-Dreiden cds available @ Amazon for .01 each (+shipping)!
	11:00pm Randy in NC: The Electrons came and went without charging things up much...
	11:01pm nls: Evan, my fave version of Ain't No Big Thing is by the Radiants, 45 came out on Chess.
	11:03pm Danne D: Maybe you could have the wonderful Amanda sing the lyrics "Ticket Salad Sandwich Time" to that song :)
	11:04pm Camel: That was pitiful LMAO Keep working on it!
	11:04pm SteveL: Seconding Amanda. In fact, I volunteer her, (as she is not present.)
	11:05pm Camel: If Amanda doesn't want to do this, she has five minutes to say so. Otherwise, DONE & DONE!!!!!
	11:05pm miss cheri: well i got to go for the night,, i'm sorry evan & danne,,, btw danne are you hip to mila kunis?? good night all!!!
	11:06pm Camel: Let us know which Mila Kunis album is best. It's a music show!
	11:08pm Patrick: wait, Diarrhea Planet AND Liquor Store are taken as band names, fudge.....
	11:10pm Barkevious Shabazz: Hey, mom and dad, the music thing is really coming together. Our band name is Diarrhea Planet and the album is out on Douchemaster!
	11:11pm Mom and Dad: So it works out that we named you Dick?
	11:11pm Danne D: Good night Cheri. Yes I have heard of Mila Kunis.
	11:12pm Patrick: i bet their parents think they can do no wrong, its their pride aunt and republican uncle that dont get it
	11:12pm Destroit: Disco Claudja is hitting home. Nice stuff.
	11:13pm Mom and Dad: Claudja remade Fly Robin Fly?!
	11:13pm Danne D: No Mila Kunis in the archive seach, but Julie has played Mila Mar: http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/39474
	11:13pm Andrew Waterloo: this is epic
	11:13pm Joe D: I highly recommend what might be their finest song, "Ghost with a Boner" the youtube video is just a picture of Rick Moranis with red eyes from Ghostbusters
	11:14pm George of Troy: Smokin'!
	11:14pm Barkevious Shabazz: Dick is preferable to Mila Kunis.
	11:14pm Destroit: Agreed Waterloo.
	11:15pm efd: I was enjoying it so much I let it just track into the next song!
	11:15pm Mom and Dad: Mila is this year's "It" girl. The Fucking Cake are so 2011.
	11:16pm George of Troy: Hands of a government man!
	11:17pm miss cheri: see you next week efd,,night!!
	11:18pm Patrick: ghost with a boner!! i dont want to watch it because what i am coming up with in my head is prob 1000 times better then what it really sounds like.
	11:18pm Destroit: Thanks Efd! A good dj always let's the record play!
	11:19pm Danne D: Ghost with a boner - is that the little known sequel to that Whoopi Goldberg movie?
	11:20pm Rickwaukee: 1980?
	11:20pm miss cheri: evan you are the king of funk!!!
	11:23pm Destroit: 1000$ says p. Hernandez was from Chicago.
	11:23pm Danne D: Wait, so why are we born again?
	11:24pm Mom and Dad: To die, in the end. He left that part out. Too depressing for a dancefloor tune.
	11:24pm efd: @Rickwaukee, close! Late 1978 (in France). @Destroit, Wikipedia says au contraire! And who am I to argue?
	11:25pm Danne D: More lyric repetition - Born to Be Alive or Devastator?
	11:26pm Destroit: Please not devastator.
	11:26pm Rickwaukee: or Turn Me Loose - Loverboy?
	11:26pm Danne D: Any particular inspiration for the Buffalo Heads baseball name, Evan?
	11:27pm Mom and Dad: Born, Born to Be Devastated! Born, Born to Be Devastated! Born, Born to Be Devastated! Born, Born to Be Devastated! vamp ad lib.
	11:28pm Danne D: please Devastator :)
	11:31pm Destroit: Haha, oh no, take your protein pills and put your helmet on.....:)
	11:31pm efd: there will be no devastating this evening.
	11:33pm SteveL: THAT is devastating news.
	11:33pm Danne D: I am Devastated, Evan.
	11:33pm efd: Danne, the Buffalo Heads was the name given to Bill Lee, Bernie Carbo, Fergie Jenkins and one or two others (Jim Willoughby?) when they were on the Sox in the mid-70s.
	11:34pm Danne D: Hmm, if Destroit gets a fantasy baseball team it could be the Detroit Devastators :)
	11:35pm Danne D: Never knew that, EFD. I keep thinking I wanna mix it up with a new name but New Jersey Knuckles is just full of goodness and the iconic Knuckles the Dog painting from FMU's collection is just the perfect logo.
	11:35pm Destroit: Thanks efd for a great show, Hernandez from France? Who knew( except from everyone on the interwebs) Great music, all around. Thanks!
	11:40pm Scuttle: Oooooh love the pagans- cant wait
	11:42pm miss cheri: evan--i promise starting next i won't be bugging you about mila kunis,,i give you my word!!
	11:42pm Destroit: I'm dangerous with baseball stats, WHIP you all night long.
	11:43pm miss cheri: *week
	11:43pm Mom and Dad: Too late for this week, eh?
	11:47pm Brian Kenny: Good choice young man.
	11:52pm David B (the other one): Has anyone seen the recently discovered short film by Robert Altman called "Modern Football"?
	11:52pm Danne D: EFD playing a song about FOOTBALL? especially during spring training? the mind boggles
	11:53pm David B (the other one): Evan, not sure if Chris has told you this yet, but the Funkasaurus was back on WWE Raw after being pulled for a month.
	11:55pm Danne D: Gotta get going :) Thanks for a great show as always, Evan. Hope everyone has a great night :)
	12:05pm Mike East: Catching the show on archive. Sounding great on Thursday morning. I should do this more often. You started off with one of my favorite Bowie tracks off one of my favorite Bowie albums (so hard to choose)! I especially love "All the Madmen" from that record.
	8:50am calzone!: Swell show Evan! Listening to the archive as well!
	10:15am efd: Thanks! I always love the archive comments!
