Listener comments!
	9:06pm Ken From Hyde Park: Give Evan your money. He'll take good care of it. Won't go to waste.
	9:07pm Stevel: How have I not heard this BTO song? Is it because I only bought two albums?
	9:08pm robyn: fortunately there are so many, many good songs about money. loved "living on a shoestring."
	9:08pm G: @BTO: that's what we call takin' care of business
	9:09pm Nardo: First LP I ever bought with me own money when I was just a tyke ~ BTO "Not Fragile"
	9:09pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): For a while BTO just asked fans for money. Not until later did they learn the sophisticated art of writing songs people would like and seek to pay for.
	9:10pm G: @stevel: wiki says Gimme Your Money Please is the B side of Little Gandy Dancer, the Canada-only first BTO 45 in 1973, never charted in US
	9:11pm Holly in NC: Hi efd & other friends! See you around 10:30 :-)
	9:11pm Sybil: Good evening, Funksters! I'm contemplating the pledge i am making... imminently.. how about you?
	9:14pm On the Yazoo: I had that BTO on eight track.
	9:16pm Holly in NC: Bettye LaVette also does a great song from the 70s - "Livin' My Life On a Shoestring" - maybe next year?
	9:16pm Chris Crash: Hey Evan! Believe it or not, this is the 1st live EFD show I'm listening to!
	9:16pm Caryn: I'm so glad this premium is already on its way to me. (well, in the sense that I've paid for it with a pledge and will be getting it probably some time in October...)
	9:16pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I no longer remember how much I've pledged or to whom.
	9:16pm Cal Zone!: A HAPPY HOW DO YOU DO EFD FANS! I'm getting my PLEDGE FINGERS ready to PUSH THE BUTTON!
	9:17pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Yes, it is on my short list, too.
	9:17pm G: Pledge it up, peeps. Us Heartsters done already pledged it up!
	9:17pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): You can pledge fingers?
	9:18pm 12539: Has anyone adopted/named the Ticket Giveaway yet?
	9:18pm Stevel: Cal Zone: Right on! One of us! One of us!
	9:18pm steve: if they reach the goal efd should give the secret of his mysterious nickname
	9:19pm G: Hey, I got a finger right here I can pledge ya, bub. (doing my living-in-Brooklyn impression; yes, i used my horn several times today while driving)
	9:21pm Caryn: @12539: yep, it has been adopted
	9:21pm G: @12539: Hopefully, the Camel is tuning up already
	9:21pm steve: G i hope you yelled out in your best Brooklynese "hey... im drivin here!"
	9:22pm G: Nah, using the horn exactly the right way is a language all its own. :)
	9:22pm Sybil: Hi Danne!
	9:23pm Stevel: Danne D!
	9:24pm G: But I did see a guy ahead of me two cars get out of his vehicle and go up to the driver window of the car in front of him and bang on it after being cut off. SRSLY
	9:24pm G: I then beeped at him when he wasn't back in his car again yet, when the light turned green. That scared my passenger :)
	9:25pm Sybil: I'm hoping to get my traditional adoption of the... dare I name it?... again.
	9:26pm G: let's just pray the new ticket segment name is better than the last one
	9:27pm SeanG: huhahuhahuha
	9:27pm tomasz.: is this the Fat Boys reissue Noah was in some way responsible for? shout to that guy
	9:28pm Sybil: @G Nothing will ever equal Midnight Ticket Oasis.
	9:29pm Holly in NC: Fat Boys! Noah! I'm making a dog cross his legs while I throw my hat in ring here!
	9:30pm G: @Sybil: Let's hope someone brings back Classic Oasis
	9:36pm john: Hey Evan, and assembled multitudes! Syl Sylvain sometime in the late '80s at our little dumpy hangout in Port Chester, NY in front of about 50 people. Wow.
	9:36pm Caryn: I can remember when I thought the Sylvain Sylvain chorus was about how "talk is cheap"...
	9:37pm StillNotSureWhatDylansTarantulaMeans: BTO+Fatboys='s BachmanTurnerOverweight
	9:38pm Chris Crash: FYI: I used to have a Tim Wakefield bobblehead
	9:40pm Arad: Arad Evans did his part, pledged and paid. Keep it goin' on Mr. Funk Davies.
	9:43pm Sybil: Timmeh!
	9:45pm Cal Zone!: I pushed the button EFD Fans! It's easy, and I feel better now! You can too! Push the button, or call in your pledge, just like yer old pal, Cal!
	9:47pm Chris Crash: 2nd pledge to EFD! We have to support the artisan furniture that is Evan's show! I've had enough of Ikea style radio!
	9:47pm Stevel: Preach on the radio! PREACH! Family, to be sure.
	9:47pm Ike: EFD, you're thinking of WRXP (v1.0) which never did too well in the ratings and had TERRIBLE clashing segues, unlike FMU of course. Then to a terrible news format which crashed and burned, then to WRXP 2.0, a pretty decent alt rock format that wasn't too repetitive and that performed well with no promotion, but CBS wanted it for sports FM.
	9:48pm Sybil: What Cal said! Pledge that pledge, and you will feel a sense of relief and release equalled by nothing else!... except possibly a Tim Wakefield bobblehead?
	9:48pm Stevel: Triple Harry!
	9:50pm Sybil: Wait, 14th Street is on the premium? HOW CAN YOU RESIST?
	9:51pm Stevel: Just as soon as Roadrunner is made the Mass. state rock song, the drive for an efd B&J flavor IS ON! Names?
	9:51pm joe: East Coast Rocker started out as The Aquarian became EC Rocker and then went back to The Aquarian which it still remains. As a long time reader of The Aquarian/EC Rocker I can gurantee you it was not nearly as cool as NY Rocker
	9:53pm efd: hey folks, thanks for commenting and especially for pledging! I can barely keep an eye on the comments but it's great to see so many folks here.
	9:53pm Dominick: Yeah hell! Mt Carmel
	9:53pm Sybil: I have successfully (re-)adopted the Important Blinky Things in the Basement! Yeah! Mux! Demux!
	9:54pm Uncle Michael: HELLO!
	9:55pm Cal Zone!: I've been 'HARRY HARRISON BOMBED' and I feel great!
	9:55pm Uncle Michael: This had got some ZZ Toppish vibe to it. Gibbonesque.
	9:55pm Mike East: I think my old band was written up in east coast rocker. Man, I totally forgot about that paper
	9:57pm Mike East: I used to pick it up at the court tavern on my way home from Jersey subs.
	10:14pm Joe B: good luck Evan! let's see some support for EFD!
	10:16pm Holly in NC: yay Sybil! You are important blinky thing woman , much respect! I am very happy to once again be Doug S's Miner Mama - 2nd year of fostering, working on adoption ;-)
	10:17pm Uncle Michael: Is this the "Who's That Lady" guitar tone?
	10:17pm steve: sweet string arrangement in there
	10:17pm bill: Luaka Bop is so great. I wish they put out more.
	10:17pm G: I was just typing that, UM
	10:19pm G: it's Brasilian, about how the dude used to sleep in the street, and now he's living better ("good sense")
	10:20pm Uncle Michael: Great minds, G.
	10:21pm joe: Who knew Eddie Hazel was making records in Brazil
	10:22pm G: Yep! It wasn't an especially subtle "borrowing" :)
	10:22pm Sigurdur: 2 2 2
	10:22pm kamikaze: Phil! <3
	10:23pm john: That second Phil Lynott solo album was unjustly reviled. Certainly not designed to appeal to Lizzy fans.
	10:23pm joe: As we have said before DK Thin Lizzy or Phil make everything better :)
	10:31pm Uncle Michael: I saw Roger Clemons throw half a bat at a bus boy at an Old Country Buffet once. It was the most dramatic thing I've ever seen.
	10:32pm joe: I love Ray Hudson
	10:32pm G: I saw a Yankee broadcaster being a jerk. it wasn't that dramatic, really -- just another day at the office.
	10:36pm G: @UM: steroid rage, maybe? :)
	10:37pm joe: Doesn't FMU broadcast to Sing Sing now?
	10:40pm Sigurdur: 2 4
	10:40pm Uncle Michael: I think they were just out of banana pudding.
	10:41pm G: now broadcasting at 20-to-life on the FM dial
	10:42pm Holly in NC: Finally, I am home! Walked in, housemate inquired if this was Wednesday (yes), so he immed turned off his Netflix ... someone should pledge for my housemate who really sacrifices on my behalf every week. Really, he does.
	10:46pm john: That wasnt the Moondogs from Ireland, was it? The ones who put out (at least) a few wonderful singles around 1980. They sounded a lot more Beatles-cum-Undertones than that, but thought I'd ask if anyone knew.
	10:47pm kevin g: Really, really looking forward to receiving this premium.
	10:49pm Droll: Holly, I'm not sure how sympathetic I am for someone is caught by surprise by Wednesday every week. I, for one, look forward to Wednesdays.
	10:50pm Uncle Michael: GODDAMIT...another Wednesday caught me napping. Damn you stealthy Wednesday!
	10:50pm G: Humped by Humpday
	10:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: RIP Peter Banks, age 65, original guitarist of Yes.
	11:00pm G: Yep, I mentioned that on Ken's board this AM: www.vintagevinylnews.com... en.wikipedia.org... Not as appreciated as he should be, but I guess that's a "get in line" issue...
	11:01pm Holly in NC: @droll - I didn't make myself clear. Housemate totally not caught by surprise -but him letting me have all bandwidth really is a big deal.
	11:02pm G: Holly needs all the household bandwidth for efd :)
	11:03pm Holly in NC: @G -I do! :-)
	11:06pm Droll: Yes has had so many lineup changes I forgot about Peter Banks. Sadly we're likely to hear even less prog during the 'thon than the usual none the rest of the year... Holly, Still, it barely passes for the minimum of sharing a common resource.
	11:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Holly - Are you planning on watching the upcoming WFMU video feeds? You may need to plan accordingly and not upset your housemate if he plans on watching movies at those times.
	11:14pm Holly in NC: @Droll - in our house it does, and much, much more. Whoa! Getting titchy, sorry, not intent, here for EFD & WMFU & the entire friend community. and Peter Banks :-)
	11:14pm Rich: The dB`s !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	11:15pm Uncle Michael: I'm really glad I don't have to kick my cat off of Call of Duty to listen to FMU.
	11:16pm G: @Droll: Banks was in The Syn and Mabel Greer's Toy Shop with Squire, very early on (psychedelic era). When Squire and Anderson decided to replace a lot of the guitar parts with orchestra arrangements on "Time and a Word" (the second Yes album), Banks was out, and Howe in for The Yes Album. Bank's three Flash albums in the early 70s are worth a listen...
	11:23pm Droll: G, You're going to pitch a prog show to the station for this summer? That's great news!
	11:24pm Holly in NC: @Ken - I think housemate is already planning on staying elsewhere for (most of) weekend. We are best friends 20+ years, which trumps (most of) other weird baggage. Most importantly, he knows what WFMU mean to me, AND he likes borrowing my t-shirts ;-)
	11:24pm G: hahahaha, as if that would ever happen, droll!!! you're killin' me here!!!
	11:26pm Carmichael: I got paid today guys, so you did too. I hope I can pledge more ...
	11:27pm Carmichael: I got paid today guys, so you did too. I hope I can pledge more ...
	11:28pm Tom K: Looking forward to another year of Fantasy Baseball! No autodraft means I won't be picking up an injured Ryan Howard in the 2nd round! Lookout y'all!
	11:29pm Droll: G, I'm jealous of you -- if I were local I'd show up at every staff meeting to complain about lack of A440-type music and prog! I'd earn (a well-deserved) reputation.
	11:30pm G: hmm, droll -- i expect to be ignored. i'm very good at it :)
	11:32pm Holly in NC: Y'all, the Cleaners from Venus comp is superb! If you like almost twee very smart early 80s Brit wave/pop, go for it. Martin Newell is a great lyricist
	11:34pm joe: My buddy totally just turned me on to Cleaners about 3 months ago after a conversation about XTC I love them so much
	11:37pm Uncle Michael: I've got the bag balm.
	11:38pm Carmichael: Congratulations, Andrew!
	11:38pm Droll: G, In a world where there is time for fantasy baseball there must be also 3 hours a week for airing 5-6 great prog or classical tunes. Conservatory musicians on LSD and "They Called Me Mad At The Conservatory, I'll Show Them, I'll Show Them All!" music should be bread-n-butter around here. I say go for it, just don't tell them I talked you into it.
	11:40pm PJ: If you like the Cleaners, you should check out Newell's glam band, the Plod: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNSwIVZSX_g And his memoir about dreaming about being in a rock and roll band, and failing at making it at rock and roll, This Little Ziggy, is the best rock book ever.
	11:41pm Mrs. Horn: I've a big soft spot for Tormato. In me head.
	11:41pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Fell asleep 9:30-ish (too many trips between my namesake locales) and now awake to see EFD still going. It is a marathon miracle.
	11:42pm G: Why, is your name mud in some quarters, Droll? :p I've seen that movie!
	11:43pm G: Holy cow, Trevor Horn's comatose wife is back, from some offhand comment I made on Pseu's board about two years ago...
	11:44pm Uncle Michael: It buggles the mind.
	11:44pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I dream of someday seeing my name in quarters.
	11:44pm G: one more mouse pledge, people! that would nearly do it!
	11:45pm joe: @PJ Love thanks for the heads up
	11:47pm Carmichael: Cmon peeple, 7 points away from the goal!!
	11:47pm Holly in NC: @Uncle Michael- I keep a tin of bag balm on my kitchen shelf at all times - friends traveling back & forth to New England keep me sourced. I send White Lily flour, Texas Pete, various & sundry pig parts, sorghum, & some kick-ass 7 pepper jelly in recompense Gap Dream. Sam Flax. Best! xo
	11:48pm steve: god I love this album... If I hadnt already pledged several times today now would be the perfect time.
	11:54pm G: one mouse pledge would now do it!
	11:55pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Come on, people -- you live beyond your means for so many lousy reasons. Do it for at least one good one!
	11:59pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Holly, I didn't know there was a NC-NE smuggling route. Can you send me up some bbq?
	12:00am G: The shit that goes up and down I-95 is not to be believed, Pete. Ask any state cop.
	12:00am Uncle Michael: Cow...TIPPED!
	12:00am Andrew Waterloo: Blue string pudding is for Klangers, not WFMU listeners.
	12:01am G: ta da !!
	12:01am Andrew Waterloo: No, wait, frig, Clangers
	12:01am Holly in NC: WOOOFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	12:01am Droll: Do we already know what the Midnight Ticket Oasis is going to be called this year? By the time I tried to name Irwin's comments board "1-800-FREE-NOSEJOB.COM Coliseum" it was already too late.
	12:02am joe: YEAH!!!!!!!
	12:02am Uncle Michael: Yay Bill!
	12:02am Carmichael: Yesssss!!!! Way to go EFD & BT!!!!!!!!!!
	12:02am steve: woo hoo!
	12:03am Pete from Boston (and NJ): Congratulations!
	12:03am Uncle Michael: Night everyone.
	12:03am Uncle Michael: SHOWROOM DUMMIES!
	12:05am Holly in NC: @Pete - very good chance, once I figure out who's going where/when!
	8:31pm Ajax: EFD is the BST

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from March 13, 2013

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.

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!

	9:47pm Chris Crash: 2nd pledge to EFD! We have to support the artisan furniture that is Evan's show! I've had enough of Ikea style radio!
	9:47pm Stevel: Preach on the radio! PREACH! Family, to be sure.
	9:47pm Ike: EFD, you're thinking of WRXP (v1.0) which never did too well in the ratings and had TERRIBLE clashing segues, unlike FMU of course. Then to a terrible news format which crashed and burned, then to WRXP 2.0, a pretty decent alt rock format that wasn't too repetitive and that performed well with no promotion, but CBS wanted it for sports FM.
	9:48pm Sybil: What Cal said! Pledge that pledge, and you will feel a sense of relief and release equalled by nothing else!... except possibly a Tim Wakefield bobblehead?
	9:48pm Stevel: Triple Harry!
	9:50pm Sybil: Wait, 14th Street is on the premium? HOW CAN YOU RESIST?
	9:51pm Stevel: Just as soon as Roadrunner is made the Mass. state rock song, the drive for an efd B&J flavor IS ON! Names?
	9:51pm joe: East Coast Rocker started out as The Aquarian became EC Rocker and then went back to The Aquarian which it still remains. As a long time reader of The Aquarian/EC Rocker I can gurantee you it was not nearly as cool as NY Rocker
	9:53pm efd: hey folks, thanks for commenting and especially for pledging! I can barely keep an eye on the comments but it's great to see so many folks here.
	9:53pm Dominick: Yeah hell! Mt Carmel
	9:53pm Sybil: I have successfully (re-)adopted the Important Blinky Things in the Basement! Yeah! Mux! Demux!
	9:54pm Uncle Michael: HELLO!
	9:55pm Cal Zone!: I've been 'HARRY HARRISON BOMBED' and I feel great!
	9:55pm Uncle Michael: This had got some ZZ Toppish vibe to it. Gibbonesque.
	9:55pm Mike East: I think my old band was written up in east coast rocker. Man, I totally forgot about that paper
	9:57pm Mike East: I used to pick it up at the court tavern on my way home from Jersey subs.
	10:14pm Joe B: good luck Evan! let's see some support for EFD!
	10:16pm Holly in NC: yay Sybil! You are important blinky thing woman , much respect! I am very happy to once again be Doug S's Miner Mama - 2nd year of fostering, working on adoption ;-)
	10:17pm Uncle Michael: Is this the "Who's That Lady" guitar tone?
	10:17pm steve: sweet string arrangement in there
	10:17pm bill: Luaka Bop is so great. I wish they put out more.
	10:17pm G: I was just typing that, UM
	10:19pm G: it's Brasilian, about how the dude used to sleep in the street, and now he's living better ("good sense")
	10:20pm Uncle Michael: Great minds, G.
	10:21pm joe: Who knew Eddie Hazel was making records in Brazil
	10:22pm G: Yep! It wasn't an especially subtle "borrowing" :)
	10:22pm Sigurdur: 2 2 2
	10:22pm kamikaze: Phil! <3
	10:23pm john: That second Phil Lynott solo album was unjustly reviled. Certainly not designed to appeal to Lizzy fans.
	10:23pm joe: As we have said before DK Thin Lizzy or Phil make everything better :)
	10:31pm Uncle Michael: I saw Roger Clemons throw half a bat at a bus boy at an Old Country Buffet once. It was the most dramatic thing I've ever seen.
	10:32pm joe: I love Ray Hudson
	10:32pm G: I saw a Yankee broadcaster being a jerk. it wasn't that dramatic, really -- just another day at the office.
	10:36pm G: @UM: steroid rage, maybe? :)
	10:37pm joe: Doesn't FMU broadcast to Sing Sing now?
	10:40pm Sigurdur: 2 4
	10:40pm Uncle Michael: I think they were just out of banana pudding.
	10:41pm G: now broadcasting at 20-to-life on the FM dial
	10:42pm Holly in NC: Finally, I am home! Walked in, housemate inquired if this was Wednesday (yes), so he immed turned off his Netflix ... someone should pledge for my housemate who really sacrifices on my behalf every week. Really, he does.
	10:46pm john: That wasnt the Moondogs from Ireland, was it? The ones who put out (at least) a few wonderful singles around 1980. They sounded a lot more Beatles-cum-Undertones than that, but thought I'd ask if anyone knew.
	10:47pm kevin g: Really, really looking forward to receiving this premium.
	10:49pm Droll: Holly, I'm not sure how sympathetic I am for someone is caught by surprise by Wednesday every week. I, for one, look forward to Wednesdays.
	10:50pm Uncle Michael: GODDAMIT...another Wednesday caught me napping. Damn you stealthy Wednesday!
	10:50pm G: Humped by Humpday
	10:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: RIP Peter Banks, age 65, original guitarist of Yes.
	11:00pm G: Yep, I mentioned that on Ken's board this AM: www.vintagevinylnews.com... en.wikipedia.org... Not as appreciated as he should be, but I guess that's a "get in line" issue...
	11:01pm Holly in NC: @droll - I didn't make myself clear. Housemate totally not caught by surprise -but him letting me have all bandwidth really is a big deal.
	11:02pm G: Holly needs all the household bandwidth for efd :)
	11:03pm Holly in NC: @G -I do! :-)
	11:06pm Droll: Yes has had so many lineup changes I forgot about Peter Banks. Sadly we're likely to hear even less prog during the 'thon than the usual none the rest of the year... Holly, Still, it barely passes for the minimum of sharing a common resource.
	11:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Holly - Are you planning on watching the upcoming WFMU video feeds? You may need to plan accordingly and not upset your housemate if he plans on watching movies at those times.
	11:14pm Holly in NC: @Droll - in our house it does, and much, much more. Whoa! Getting titchy, sorry, not intent, here for EFD & WMFU & the entire friend community. and Peter Banks :-)
	11:14pm Rich: The dB`s !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	11:15pm Uncle Michael: I'm really glad I don't have to kick my cat off of Call of Duty to listen to FMU.
	11:16pm G: @Droll: Banks was in The Syn and Mabel Greer's Toy Shop with Squire, very early on (psychedelic era). When Squire and Anderson decided to replace a lot of the guitar parts with orchestra arrangements on "Time and a Word" (the second Yes album), Banks was out, and Howe in for The Yes Album. Bank's three Flash albums in the early 70s are worth a listen...
	11:23pm Droll: G, You're going to pitch a prog show to the station for this summer? That's great news!
	11:24pm Holly in NC: @Ken - I think housemate is already planning on staying elsewhere for (most of) weekend. We are best friends 20+ years, which trumps (most of) other weird baggage. Most importantly, he knows what WFMU mean to me, AND he likes borrowing my t-shirts ;-)
	11:24pm G: hahahaha, as if that would ever happen, droll!!! you're killin' me here!!!
	11:26pm Carmichael: I got paid today guys, so you did too. I hope I can pledge more ...
	11:27pm Carmichael: I got paid today guys, so you did too. I hope I can pledge more ...
	11:28pm Tom K: Looking forward to another year of Fantasy Baseball! No autodraft means I won't be picking up an injured Ryan Howard in the 2nd round! Lookout y'all!
	11:29pm Droll: G, I'm jealous of you -- if I were local I'd show up at every staff meeting to complain about lack of A440-type music and prog! I'd earn (a well-deserved) reputation.
	11:30pm G: hmm, droll -- i expect to be ignored. i'm very good at it :)
	11:32pm Holly in NC: Y'all, the Cleaners from Venus comp is superb! If you like almost twee very smart early 80s Brit wave/pop, go for it. Martin Newell is a great lyricist
	11:34pm joe: My buddy totally just turned me on to Cleaners about 3 months ago after a conversation about XTC I love them so much
	11:37pm Uncle Michael: I've got the bag balm.
	11:38pm Carmichael: Congratulations, Andrew!
	11:38pm Droll: G, In a world where there is time for fantasy baseball there must be also 3 hours a week for airing 5-6 great prog or classical tunes. Conservatory musicians on LSD and "They Called Me Mad At The Conservatory, I'll Show Them, I'll Show Them All!" music should be bread-n-butter around here. I say go for it, just don't tell them I talked you into it.
	11:40pm PJ: If you like the Cleaners, you should check out Newell's glam band, the Plod: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNSwIVZSX_g And his memoir about dreaming about being in a rock and roll band, and failing at making it at rock and roll, This Little Ziggy, is the best rock book ever.
	11:41pm Mrs. Horn: I've a big soft spot for Tormato. In me head.
	11:41pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Fell asleep 9:30-ish (too many trips between my namesake locales) and now awake to see EFD still going. It is a marathon miracle.
	11:42pm G: Why, is your name mud in some quarters, Droll? :p I've seen that movie!
	11:43pm G: Holy cow, Trevor Horn's comatose wife is back, from some offhand comment I made on Pseu's board about two years ago...
	11:44pm Uncle Michael: It buggles the mind.
	11:44pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): I dream of someday seeing my name in quarters.
	11:44pm G: one more mouse pledge, people! that would nearly do it!
	11:45pm joe: @PJ Love thanks for the heads up
	11:47pm Carmichael: Cmon peeple, 7 points away from the goal!!
	11:47pm Holly in NC: @Uncle Michael- I keep a tin of bag balm on my kitchen shelf at all times - friends traveling back & forth to New England keep me sourced. I send White Lily flour, Texas Pete, various & sundry pig parts, sorghum, & some kick-ass 7 pepper jelly in recompense Gap Dream. Sam Flax. Best! xo
	11:48pm steve: god I love this album... If I hadnt already pledged several times today now would be the perfect time.
	11:54pm G: one mouse pledge would now do it!
	11:55pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Come on, people -- you live beyond your means for so many lousy reasons. Do it for at least one good one!
	11:59pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Holly, I didn't know there was a NC-NE smuggling route. Can you send me up some bbq?
	12:00am G: The shit that goes up and down I-95 is not to be believed, Pete. Ask any state cop.
	12:00am Uncle Michael: Cow...TIPPED!
	12:00am Andrew Waterloo: Blue string pudding is for Klangers, not WFMU listeners.
	12:01am G: ta da !!
	12:01am Andrew Waterloo: No, wait, frig, Clangers
	12:01am Holly in NC: WOOOFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	12:01am Droll: Do we already know what the Midnight Ticket Oasis is going to be called this year? By the time I tried to name Irwin's comments board "1-800-FREE-NOSEJOB.COM Coliseum" it was already too late.
	12:02am joe: YEAH!!!!!!!
	12:02am Uncle Michael: Yay Bill!
	12:02am Carmichael: Yesssss!!!! Way to go EFD & BT!!!!!!!!!!
	12:02am steve: woo hoo!
	12:03am Pete from Boston (and NJ): Congratulations!
	12:03am Uncle Michael: Night everyone.
	12:03am Uncle Michael: SHOWROOM DUMMIES!
	12:05am Holly in NC: @Pete - very good chance, once I figure out who's going where/when!
	8:31pm Ajax: EFD is the BST
