Listener comments!
	9:03pm G: Attention: The week is now officially more than half over. That is all.
	9:04pm efd: G, I owe you a gigantic GROOOAAAAANNNN for that pun you made during Irwin's show.
	9:05pm G: ^^^ jealous :p
	9:06pm efd: can't deny that.
	9:06pm sweet cheri: hiya evan--on next weeks show i have faith in you that you'll come out strong, i just know you can do it!!! GO EVAN GO!
	9:07pm G: No wonder efd is in a good mood. check the Boston NYY score, on top of Monday. Couldn't happen to a more annoying bunch of overpaid decrepits and stopgaps who aren't stopping any gaps.
	9:08pm G: While I was typing that he started the baseball tune. QED!
	9:08pm Mike East: What?! I missed a pun?!
	9:09pm efd: the first song was a baseball tune too, G!
	9:09pm G: O yeah, it's been a long day and I am slow on the uptake!
	9:11pm efd: Mike, during Irwin's show G mentioned a Dutch guitar maker of his acquaintance.
	9:11pm efd: cheri thanks, I'll do my best.
	9:11pm efd: what IS the score anyway? I haven't checked since I got here and it was 2-0.
	9:12pm G: oh yeah, i was screwing around while waiting in the car for someone, between 3 and 3:30 somewhere...
	9:12pm G: wait for it
	9:12pm john: Listening to We Are Familee while watching the Buccos in Pixburgh (we'd be at the game, except it's 32 degrees, and you'd have to be an actual Pittsburgh Penguin to enjoy it). Perfect opening!
	9:12pm Mike East: Evan, I'm still telling people about that jacco gardner set. Hopefully sold some records for him. Thanks again
	9:13pm SeanG: 6-1 Sox!
	9:13pm G: mlb.com says Bos 6- NYY 1, bott 5
	9:13pm G: repeat of monday, so far
	9:15pm sweet cheri: evan, what's your strategy? you could tell us, if you want.
	9:17pm Patro: I downloaded Jacco Gardner set in to my Ipod. Thanks! Does everyone know it's available?
	9:18pm Mike East: (Reads luthier joke) boooo! :)
	9:19pm G: most of life is improvisation, despite out efforts [bows]
	9:20pm G: our. see what i mean?
	9:26pm efd: hey Mike and Patro, glad you enjoyed the Jacco set! Yes, it's posted on the Free Music Archive - just go to freemusicarchive.org and search for Jacco Gardner and you'll find it.
	9:27pm sweet cheri: evan you won't tell us how you'll beat clay next week?
	9:31pm AZ: Speaking of ol' Charlie Hustle, this YouTube clip of his sing-along Aqua Velva commercial from 1976 is one of the greatest things in the universe: www.youtube.com...
	9:31pm G: it's improvisation, cheri -- let the magic happen :)
	9:34pm sweet cheri: is this going to be a baseball themed show, evan?
	9:35pm G: Boston 7, New York Dinkies 1, bottom 6. Brutal, baby.
	9:36pm Holly in NC: Hello efd , Happy Wednesday! @G, please don't be too mean, I had to deal w Duke men's BB debacle (hate Lousiville program but best wishes to Kevin Ware) and now start of this NY baseball season, I am fragile. Plus dogs I'm sitting got into wasabi seaweed while I was out (NOT my fault, dang housekeepers locked pups in basement for NO reason) so I'm expecting explosive diarrhea at some point this evening (theirs, not mine). So far so good, though! Small favors.
	9:37pm slugluv1313: DR. K!!!
	9:37pm G: That sounds crappy :)
	9:38pm sweet cheri: hi there holly, happy wednesday to you too!!
	9:38pm Droll: Two bad puns today already, G...
	9:39pm upstatesean: man that is bad
	9:39pm Holly in NC: Hello Cheri. Switching to phone, back in a few...
	9:41pm upstatesean: yo Holly that's a lot of information
	9:42pm G: Mea maxima culpa 0:-)
	9:44pm upstatesean: now when you say lenticular,
	9:45pm upstatesean: you mean illusionistic, c'est ca?
	9:50pm upstatesean: baseball theme is kicking ass, efd. no worries. it's wfmu, and people love it no matter what it is.
	9:50pm braveness23: play that one baseball song, you know the one.
	9:51pm efd: Lenticular = like the cover of Their Satanic Majesties Request
	9:51pm upstatesean: ok, with the exception of that last "casey at bat" thing.
	9:51pm efd: I just like saying the word "lenticular"
	9:52pm efd: oh, "Casey..." still has a long way to go!
	9:52pm upstatesean: who doesnt
	9:52pm Sybil: Tony C!!! O Evan, how could you. And Rico Petrocelli. How well I recall my memorized lineup of the Impossible Dream... Tony C. I miss you!
	9:53pm upstatesean: OK, now I am really starting to like it
	9:53pm eddy in australia: Say "l'enticular" like "Le Poisson Rouge"
	9:53pm Alex d'Edgewater: Did I hear that Doc Gooden was on the radio?
	9:53pm Sybil: "Math", my still attractive Aunt Fanny.
	9:54pm braveness23: Batter up postmediawindsorstar.files.wordpress.com...
	9:54pm efd: he throws like he sings.
	9:55pm Barkevious Shabazz: Philadelphia. From whence all good things come. Except for Micheal Vick. Feh.
	9:55pm efd: Alex, he was, but now he's not!
	9:55pm Holly in NC: Sorry! Didn't mean to be irritating, apologies. Will quietly (& appreciatively) listen to rest of show . :-)
	9:55pm G: OUCH! :)
	9:55pm efd: Tug is really chewing the scenery on this one.
	9:55pm Sybil: OK, must be awake at a stupid hour tomorrow, but... BASEBALL!!!
	9:56pm sweet cheri: i'm really sorry evan,,i got to split early now i'm not into baseball,,my apoligizies but i'll be back next week..g'night efd & all!!
	9:56pm upstatesean: not irritating, Holly!
	9:56pm upstatesean: good stuff
	9:56pm efd: Bye Sybil! Holly, I saw no indication of irritating-ness on your part!
	9:57pm braveness23: <bangs head on desk>
	9:57pm G: It's only the puppies innards that are irritated, to the best of my understanding
	9:58pm braveness23: My bird is loving this show. She's sitting there like a fluffy poof ball. If she hates a show, she lets you know big time.
	9:58pm efd: This is mimicking the pace of a Red Sox - Yankee game.
	9:59pm upstatesean: only on fmu can you hear this
	9:59pm braveness23: I think this one is going into extra innings
	9:59pm Barkevious Shabazz: McGraw was on spheroids?
	10:00pm G: It's the last stanza!
	10:00pm upstatesean: fmu has taught me tolerance. seriously.
	10:00pm Alex d'Edgewater: i'd like to hire the philly pops too
	10:01pm sweet cheri: i hope you forgive me for leaving,evan.like i said i'm not a b/b fan,,
	10:01pm braveness23: Hey, I pay good money for these freaks to have free reign of the airwaves. If tonight's theme is baseball then lets have some baseball!
	10:01pm upstatesean: there was a time when I wouldnt listen to this dreck for more than 10 seconds. now I will listen to the whole thing
	10:02pm G: It was art :)
	10:02pm braveness23: @upstatesean, you must have kids.
	10:02pm upstatesean: that's right braveness.
	10:02pm Blacktooth: That was the sickest, most involved version of "Casey At The Bat" I've heard. I can dig it!!!
	10:03pm upstatesean: yes, Blacktooth
	10:03pm upstatesean: good guess
	10:04pm Stevel: I approve that 'lifetime supply' of Casey at the Bat.
	10:05pm G: and now it's in the archive, for people to put on obsessive eternal repeat, or studiously ignore forever :-)
	10:06pm Stevel: G: That's a beautiful thing.
	10:08pm upstatesean: buddhist guru also sucks pretty bad
	10:09pm sweet cheri: whoa, maybe i spoke too soon evan, now back to GOOD music.
	10:09pm G: one man's meat...
	10:10pm Uncle Michael: Greetings.
	10:10pm hr: hey evan, why not a thurmon munsen trpbute
	10:10pm upstatesean: have a nice evening everyone
	10:10pm G: he's here in case things get rough :)
	10:11pm Uncle Michael: goddam right
	10:13pm Barkevious Shabazz: All hail the mighty Basenji.
	10:14pm efd: The barkless dog of Hungary!
	10:14pm efd: Hey HR! I don't know of any songs about Thurman Munson offhand.
	10:16pm Barkevious Shabazz: Or the Congo.
	10:16pm Stevel: "The Night the Drove Ole Munson Down?" "Viva Munson?" "Munson and Clover?"
	10:17pm upstatesean: oil is to water as 1.mechanic is to automobile 2.cantelope is to fruit 3.sports is to wfmu
	10:17pm efd: oh! That's funny, in my head I hear Roger Caras describing it as the barkless dog of Hungary, but maybe I'm conflating two different breeds.
	10:18pm sweet cheri: evan i love this kind of music better then the baseball crap earlier!
	10:19pm Barkevious Shabazz: Tis barkless. And top notch.
	10:19pm buck: CSC Funk !!! Yes!
	10:19pm Alex d'Edgewater: baseball fan checking in. i like the challenge of it
	10:19pm G: Basenji? I got yer basenji right here, bub. [momentarily changed avatar]
	10:20pm efd: you'd be surprised at the number of sports fans among the WFMU staff!
	10:20pm Adam in Portland and Lynnwood: Seattle's own! :-)
	10:21pm upstatesean: efd, I know you are right! just kidding.
	10:21pm Holly in NC: I really, really like the Wimps lp. And I LOVED Thurman Munson.
	10:22pm Barkevious Shabazz: @G aw yeahhhh. Who is that yodeler?
	10:22pm G: nice save, upstate :)
	10:22pm upstatesean: but sweet cheri, don't you love that he plays the baseball crap, too?!
	10:23pm Joe B: baseball and hockey seem to be the top sports among the FMU staff
	10:23pm G: my ex wife's... i just dogsat him two weeks ago while she visited an 89-yo aunt in boca raton... and yeah, he yodels and yowls.
	10:24pm Alex d'Edgewater: scharpling's all about basketball
	10:25pm Uncle Michael: Are we sure Mike LuPEEka isn't really Mike LOOpica?
	10:26pm Joe B: that is true Alex!
	10:26pm upstatesean: hey G, thanks. Would make a good defense in court: "I was just kidding!"
	10:26pm Barkevious Shabazz: @G I'd get ahold of that decree and move the pooch over to your column.
	10:27pm G: @upstate: it's worth a try in a pinch, especially if one has painted oneself seriously into a corner :)
	10:28pm Kat in Chicago: I like the idea of a "power pop dispute" myself.
	10:28pm Uncle Michael: EFD, I may have asked this before. Have you had an earful of Cirrone yet?
	10:28pm upstatesean: throwdown with the Pigeon. absurd
	10:29pm Uncle Michael: Not unlike a Sunshine Pop slap fight.
	10:29pm Holly in NC: Tues 4/9 now marked on calendar. Allah-Las.
	10:31pm G: dogs are nice to dogsit for, but i am always so short on time for everything i want or have to do that i don't want one every day. she was the dog-crazed one who heard about basenjis somewhere, back in the mid 00s, so he's hers... a family on the south shore of staten island had gotten him from a breeder out of state, and then the lady of the house didn't want him, so they offloaded him for cheap as a one or so year old...
	10:35pm Barkevious Shabazz: Our Basenji couldn't have cared less if we were around or not. Most self sufficient.
	10:35pm sweet cheri: getting back to evan's show next week,i feel that you'll come out on top evan!!
	10:36pm G: this one's not box trained :) that's a 15-20 walk 2-3 times a day! I can do that as a change of pace for a week, but not every day -- and i travel!
	10:36pm Holly in NC: re powerpop- does any have or has anyone heard the cd reissue of 'It happened..& nobody noticed' It's an old comp of Connecticut powerpop, I only have the lp, cd apparently much expanded. Confusingly, there's also an Aussie comp of same name.
	10:37pm Uncle Michael: Not I, Holly.
	10:37pm efd: Uncle Michael, I'm not sure what you're asking exactly...? Cerrone the disco artist?
	10:39pm sweet cheri: holly tell me do you dislike baseball like i do?
	10:39pm Uncle Michael: No, Cirrone the Italian power pop band with the excellent 2012 release.
	10:40pm efd: oh@ No, I haven't heard them, although you may have mentioned them before.
	10:40pm Chris in TX via RI: This is an amazing track
	10:41pm efd: I like that avatar, Chris!
	10:42pm Chris in TX via RI: Thanks! I'm pretty happy about the start of this season obviously.
	10:43pm Uncle Michael: cirroneband.com... Bosox should be a contender in that division this year since NY and Baltimore will both suck.
	10:43pm sweet cheri: you don't want to talk about the war of the airwaves next week evan?
	10:43pm Alex d'Edgewater: Wildcard out of the Central!
	10:44pm Uncle Michael: Personally, I'll miss the Bobby Valentine train wreck.
	10:44pm Holly in NC: Cheri, I love love love baseball, with great passion, so no ;-)
	10:44pm efd: I have a hard time seeing the rag-tag Red Sox overtaking Tampa and Toronto, much as I'd like them to do so.
	10:44pm Chris in TX via RI: I didn't think the Yanks would be this terrible, but to their credit their injured roster is pretty bad. I get to see the Sox for the first time in a decade next month when they come play the Rangers.
	10:45pm Uncle Michael: I agree with you but they could be in the WC hunt with some breaks.
	10:46pm Chris in TX via RI: Uncle Michael, yeah that was pretty damn embarrassing. I thought he'd do so much better.
	10:46pm Uncle Michael: I'll be grinding out another season with a last place team and just keep believing in Theo.
	10:46pm G: Yankees lose 7-4. They were behind 7-1, got 3 in the bottom of the eight, led off the ninth with a single, then crapped out totally, leaving Cano on deck.
	10:47pm Uncle Michael: @Chris: Sorry but that hire had disaster written all over it from the jump.
	10:48pm Chris in TX via RI: Since being in Texas I've grown somewhat fond of, well I pity, the Astros. I was psyched about opening day but then they went and blew it last night.
	10:49pm Alex d'Edgewater: Sorry about the Ricketts, Uncle.
	10:49pm G: A Rod earns more than the entire Astros player payroll this year, and may not even play.
	10:50pm Uncle Michael: The Ricketts' are fine. Well, not their dad...but hey.
	10:51pm Chris in TX via RI: @G that is hilarious to me.
	10:52pm G: I thought it worth mentioning :)
	10:52pm G: A Rod was at the home opener Monday, and was not introduced over the PA :)
	10:53pm Uncle Michael: Gotta love Theo bringing Hot Stove, Cool Music to Chicago.
	10:54pm sweet cheri: evan i want to know am i being singled out cause i don't like baseball?
	10:55pm efd: cheri I don't even know what you're talking about.
	10:55pm Alex d'Edgewater: the music isn't about baseball anymore, sweet cheri
	10:57pm Chris in TX via RI: I'm so glad I finally got a new computer. The stream sounds killer on my Grado 'phones. Not so much on the ol' droid.
	10:58pm sweet cheri: sorry to trouble you,evan
	10:58pm Uncle Michael: How does one pronounce "d'Edgewater," dazhe-wah-tare?
	10:58pm eddy in australia: Another week, another Fallen Leaves copped licks comment: was that the riff from "Boredom" by the Buzzcocks?
	10:59pm sweet cheri: g'night to you all see you next week evan.
	10:59pm efd: I believe it was, Eddy!
	11:00pm Barkevious Shabazz: Its not about baseball anymore Cheri! It's about us. And I'm leaving, dammit.
	11:00pm Stevel: eddy: Nice catch. I heard that too.
	11:00pm G: I'm not going away mad, I'm just going away :-) j/k!!!!
	11:04pm Stevel: Diversion: How to tour in a band, by Thor Harris: "#17-Clean up after yourself. What are you… a goddamn toddler?" beenlookingforthemagic.tumblr.com...
	11:04pm Alex d'Edgewater: like this
	11:07pm G: there are tickets? i thought it was just an excuse for a tongue twister :)
	11:10pm AZ: hahahahahahaha
	11:10pm G: holy crap, production values!!!!!!!!!!!
	11:10pm fleep: I was very nearly impressed.
	11:11pm Uncle Michael: Holy moly...I just activated dropbox on my tablet and my dropbox storage space tripled fro 25 to 75 gigs.
	11:11pm Droll: HOORAH! A classically botched "Ticket" injection! Every bit as good as the real thing!
	11:11pm Stevel: As Martin Mull used to say on Fernwood Tonight: "That's darned near interesting."
	11:13pm Barkevious Shabazz: My goal for the next 2days is to inquire at work "what are you, a goddam toddler," and avoid termination.
	11:14pm Chris in TX via RI: I could totally get away with that. I'm the youngest guy in my shop by ten years but by far the most mature. And I'm not mature by any means.
	11:15pm Uncle Michael: @Bark: I think that every time I see the way college students treat a public restroom.
	11:15pm Barkevious Shabazz: Everyone needs a goal.
	11:16pm Stevel: One step at a time.
	11:16pm Chris in TX via RI: You should probably record it for posterity. And repeated laughter.
	11:16pm Barkevious Shabazz: @Unc I think of it whenever I read about congress.
	11:17pm sweet cheri: btw who here thinks that evan can win next weeks "power pop throwdown"? i know evan can win, i'm totaly on your side evan..
	11:17pm Chris in TX via RI: Sad but true.
	11:17pm Alex d'Edgewater: Lock your door, Evan.
	11:18pm Chris in TX via RI: +1 for EFD
	11:18pm Uncle Michael: What are the Vegas odds?
	11:21pm Stevel: I like Bowie. There. I said it. Ken had an awesome Fake-Bowie set earlier today. Threatened to do three hours of fake Bowie. I'm there.
	11:22pm sweet cheri: well on that note i must head out for real..again night evan & all..looking forward to next week
	11:24pm steve: hey everybody. im very very late but present!
	11:25pm efd: hey steve! I'm sitting here with your adopted disco light behind me.
	11:25pm steve: yeah!!
	11:26pm steve: im unusually drunk for a wednesday and this is hitting the spot... i taught a workshop in my apartment with lots of alcohol and pizza
	11:27pm Droll: . o O ( Sweet Cheri says she's leaving for the fourth time, but there's still 30 minutes left in the show, so there's time for two more ) Tubes are underplayed. Great tune.
	11:28pm Stevel: So steve: What are the best combinations of alcohol and pizza?
	11:29pm Chris in TX via RI: Alcohol and pizza...two of my favorite things. Though I have yet to find a place in this city that knows how to do pizza right.
	11:31pm G: Pro tip: Just don't puke after having a meat pizza, especially pepperoni.
	11:31pm steve: Stevel, some french beer ive never heard of and incredibly heavy artichoke spinach ricotta pizza. they gave us the artichoke pizza by accident but it was so good
	11:31pm Pine: Wow this is so creepy and cool
	11:32pm Chris in TX via RI: That burns a little bit, no?
	11:32pm Stevel: Hey, Pine! How's tricks?
	11:32pm G: it could.
	11:36pm Barkevious Shabazz: This sounds like the finale music in revenge of the nerds after the football team is vanquished.
	11:37pm Pine: Hey Steve, I'm up late planting food :)
	11:38pm Stevel: This show has covered a lot of ground. Impressive. Planting food is good! What's for dinner?
	11:38pm efd: hi Pine! Off on a synthesizer tangent for a bit, not quite sure why...
	11:39pm G: Because synths.
	11:39pm Kat in Chicago: That Lloyd Cole & Roedelius (?!) was very nice indeed.
	11:39pm Kat in Chicago: what G said.
	11:39pm Droll: Stevel, I was just thinking the same thing -- didn't we start with a baseball theme and some epic freestyle ramble-on? MW start early this week?
	11:40pm jacob: no objections here, enjoying the synth tangent very much.
	11:44pm Pine: Tomato, potato, squash, peppers, synth is good for plants
	11:45pm Barkevious Shabazz: Sure do like me some john foxx era ultravox.
	11:47pm Stevel: Pine: Well thought. Me? I'm letting the dogs out before I go to bed. You? You're up late, I'd wager.
	11:47pm Uncle Michael: I only ever saw Midge Ure era Ultravox.
	11:48pm steve: i assumed it was like Wah-keem. like Joachin (Wah-Keen) Phoenix. i am probably wrong.
	11:49pm Barkevious Shabazz: Thought that pinnacle had a ultravox flave.
	11:52pm Caryn: Thought I should write something, seeing as I've lurked all show long. Nice show, EFD! And the first opportunity I've had to hear "Casey at the Bat". Growing up and reading the MAD parody, I always felt I was missing something, not being familiar with the original. Now I'm finally in the know!
	11:52pm Alex d'Edgewater: glad to hear this again
	11:54pm efd: cool, thanks Caryn!
	11:54pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for the ear-feast, edf. Take care everyone...good night, Cleveland!
	11:54pm efd: Alex, yeah, I'd been staying away from this cut since it was the single but I could stay away no longer!
	11:55pm Marmalade kitty: Hola! EFD ..I too have been lurking for a short time
	11:55pm G: gang's all here...
	11:55pm efd: alright!
	11:55pm efd: thanks Uncle Michael!
	11:56pm 12539: Out from lurking to say thanks for another show, Mr Funk.
	11:57pm Marmalade kitty: lurker amnesty here!
	11:57pm Chris in TX via RI: Great show EFD. G'night everyone!
	11:58pm efd: categorical greeting to all lurkers! Thanks for listening, and thanks to the non-lurkers as well!
	11:59pm Alex d'Edgewater: Summer's almost here. Time to pencil in some shows. Thanks, Evan.
	12:00am Droll: Brilliant job EFD, you made it from homeruns and disco to Hot Lunch and disco via Bare Wires and Tubes, in just 3 hours. Thanks!
	12:00am fleep: Thanks EFD

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from April 3, 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.

<-- 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!

April 3, 2013: Play ball!

Listener comments!
	9:03pm G: Attention: The week is now officially more than half over. That is all.
	9:04pm efd: G, I owe you a gigantic GROOOAAAAANNNN for that pun you made during Irwin's show.
	9:05pm G: ^^^ jealous :p
	9:06pm efd: can't deny that.
	9:06pm sweet cheri: hiya evan--on next weeks show i have faith in you that you'll come out strong, i just know you can do it!!! GO EVAN GO!
	9:07pm G: No wonder efd is in a good mood. check the Boston NYY score, on top of Monday. Couldn't happen to a more annoying bunch of overpaid decrepits and stopgaps who aren't stopping any gaps.
	9:08pm G: While I was typing that he started the baseball tune. QED!
	9:08pm Mike East: What?! I missed a pun?!
	9:09pm efd: the first song was a baseball tune too, G!
	9:09pm G: O yeah, it's been a long day and I am slow on the uptake!
	9:11pm efd: Mike, during Irwin's show G mentioned a Dutch guitar maker of his acquaintance.
	9:11pm efd: cheri thanks, I'll do my best.
	9:11pm efd: what IS the score anyway? I haven't checked since I got here and it was 2-0.
	9:12pm G: oh yeah, i was screwing around while waiting in the car for someone, between 3 and 3:30 somewhere...
	9:12pm G: wait for it
	9:12pm john: Listening to We Are Familee while watching the Buccos in Pixburgh (we'd be at the game, except it's 32 degrees, and you'd have to be an actual Pittsburgh Penguin to enjoy it). Perfect opening!
	9:12pm Mike East: Evan, I'm still telling people about that jacco gardner set. Hopefully sold some records for him. Thanks again
	9:13pm SeanG: 6-1 Sox!
	9:13pm G: mlb.com says Bos 6- NYY 1, bott 5
	9:13pm G: repeat of monday, so far
	9:15pm sweet cheri: evan, what's your strategy? you could tell us, if you want.
	9:17pm Patro: I downloaded Jacco Gardner set in to my Ipod. Thanks! Does everyone know it's available?
	9:18pm Mike East: (Reads luthier joke) boooo! :)
	9:19pm G: most of life is improvisation, despite out efforts [bows]
	9:20pm G: our. see what i mean?
	9:26pm efd: hey Mike and Patro, glad you enjoyed the Jacco set! Yes, it's posted on the Free Music Archive - just go to freemusicarchive.org and search for Jacco Gardner and you'll find it.
	9:27pm sweet cheri: evan you won't tell us how you'll beat clay next week?
	9:31pm AZ: Speaking of ol' Charlie Hustle, this YouTube clip of his sing-along Aqua Velva commercial from 1976 is one of the greatest things in the universe: www.youtube.com...
	9:31pm G: it's improvisation, cheri -- let the magic happen :)
	9:34pm sweet cheri: is this going to be a baseball themed show, evan?
	9:35pm G: Boston 7, New York Dinkies 1, bottom 6. Brutal, baby.
	9:36pm Holly in NC: Hello efd , Happy Wednesday! @G, please don't be too mean, I had to deal w Duke men's BB debacle (hate Lousiville program but best wishes to Kevin Ware) and now start of this NY baseball season, I am fragile. Plus dogs I'm sitting got into wasabi seaweed while I was out (NOT my fault, dang housekeepers locked pups in basement for NO reason) so I'm expecting explosive diarrhea at some point this evening (theirs, not mine). So far so good, though! Small favors.
	9:37pm slugluv1313: DR. K!!!
	9:37pm G: That sounds crappy :)
	9:38pm sweet cheri: hi there holly, happy wednesday to you too!!
	9:38pm Droll: Two bad puns today already, G...
	9:39pm upstatesean: man that is bad
	9:39pm Holly in NC: Hello Cheri. Switching to phone, back in a few...
	9:41pm upstatesean: yo Holly that's a lot of information
	9:42pm G: Mea maxima culpa 0:-)
	9:44pm upstatesean: now when you say lenticular,
	9:45pm upstatesean: you mean illusionistic, c'est ca?
	9:50pm upstatesean: baseball theme is kicking ass, efd. no worries. it's wfmu, and people love it no matter what it is.
	9:50pm braveness23: play that one baseball song, you know the one.
	9:51pm efd: Lenticular = like the cover of Their Satanic Majesties Request
	9:51pm upstatesean: ok, with the exception of that last "casey at bat" thing.
	9:51pm efd: I just like saying the word "lenticular"
	9:52pm efd: oh, "Casey..." still has a long way to go!
	9:52pm upstatesean: who doesnt
	9:52pm Sybil: Tony C!!! O Evan, how could you. And Rico Petrocelli. How well I recall my memorized lineup of the Impossible Dream... Tony C. I miss you!
	9:53pm upstatesean: OK, now I am really starting to like it
	9:53pm eddy in australia: Say "l'enticular" like "Le Poisson Rouge"
	9:53pm Alex d'Edgewater: Did I hear that Doc Gooden was on the radio?
	9:53pm Sybil: "Math", my still attractive Aunt Fanny.
	9:54pm braveness23: Batter up postmediawindsorstar.files.wordpress.com...
	9:54pm efd: he throws like he sings.
	9:55pm Barkevious Shabazz: Philadelphia. From whence all good things come. Except for Micheal Vick. Feh.
	9:55pm efd: Alex, he was, but now he's not!
	9:55pm Holly in NC: Sorry! Didn't mean to be irritating, apologies. Will quietly (& appreciatively) listen to rest of show . :-)
	9:55pm G: OUCH! :)
	9:55pm efd: Tug is really chewing the scenery on this one.
	9:55pm Sybil: OK, must be awake at a stupid hour tomorrow, but... BASEBALL!!!
	9:56pm sweet cheri: i'm really sorry evan,,i got to split early now i'm not into baseball,,my apoligizies but i'll be back next week..g'night efd & all!!
	9:56pm upstatesean: not irritating, Holly!
	9:56pm upstatesean: good stuff
	9:56pm efd: Bye Sybil! Holly, I saw no indication of irritating-ness on your part!
	9:57pm braveness23: <bangs head on desk>
	9:57pm G: It's only the puppies innards that are irritated, to the best of my understanding
	9:58pm braveness23: My bird is loving this show. She's sitting there like a fluffy poof ball. If she hates a show, she lets you know big time.
	9:58pm efd: This is mimicking the pace of a Red Sox - Yankee game.
	9:59pm upstatesean: only on fmu can you hear this
	9:59pm braveness23: I think this one is going into extra innings
	9:59pm Barkevious Shabazz: McGraw was on spheroids?
	10:00pm G: It's the last stanza!
	10:00pm upstatesean: fmu has taught me tolerance. seriously.
	10:00pm Alex d'Edgewater: i'd like to hire the philly pops too
	10:01pm sweet cheri: i hope you forgive me for leaving,evan.like i said i'm not a b/b fan,,
	10:01pm braveness23: Hey, I pay good money for these freaks to have free reign of the airwaves. If tonight's theme is baseball then lets have some baseball!
	10:01pm upstatesean: there was a time when I wouldnt listen to this dreck for more than 10 seconds. now I will listen to the whole thing
	10:02pm G: It was art :)
	10:02pm braveness23: @upstatesean, you must have kids.
	10:02pm upstatesean: that's right braveness.
	10:02pm Blacktooth: That was the sickest, most involved version of "Casey At The Bat" I've heard. I can dig it!!!
	10:03pm upstatesean: yes, Blacktooth
	10:03pm upstatesean: good guess
	10:04pm Stevel: I approve that 'lifetime supply' of Casey at the Bat.
	10:05pm G: and now it's in the archive, for people to put on obsessive eternal repeat, or studiously ignore forever :-)
	10:06pm Stevel: G: That's a beautiful thing.
	10:08pm upstatesean: buddhist guru also sucks pretty bad
	10:09pm sweet cheri: whoa, maybe i spoke too soon evan, now back to GOOD music.
	10:09pm G: one man's meat...
	10:10pm Uncle Michael: Greetings.
	10:10pm hr: hey evan, why not a thurmon munsen trpbute
	10:10pm upstatesean: have a nice evening everyone
	10:10pm G: he's here in case things get rough :)
	10:11pm Uncle Michael: goddam right
	10:13pm Barkevious Shabazz: All hail the mighty Basenji.
	10:14pm efd: The barkless dog of Hungary!
	10:14pm efd: Hey HR! I don't know of any songs about Thurman Munson offhand.
	10:16pm Barkevious Shabazz: Or the Congo.
	10:16pm Stevel: "The Night the Drove Ole Munson Down?" "Viva Munson?" "Munson and Clover?"
	10:17pm upstatesean: oil is to water as 1.mechanic is to automobile 2.cantelope is to fruit 3.sports is to wfmu
	10:17pm efd: oh! That's funny, in my head I hear Roger Caras describing it as the barkless dog of Hungary, but maybe I'm conflating two different breeds.
	10:18pm sweet cheri: evan i love this kind of music better then the baseball crap earlier!
	10:19pm Barkevious Shabazz: Tis barkless. And top notch.
	10:19pm buck: CSC Funk !!! Yes!
	10:19pm Alex d'Edgewater: baseball fan checking in. i like the challenge of it
	10:19pm G: Basenji? I got yer basenji right here, bub. [momentarily changed avatar]
	10:20pm efd: you'd be surprised at the number of sports fans among the WFMU staff!
	10:20pm Adam in Portland and Lynnwood: Seattle's own! :-)
	10:21pm upstatesean: efd, I know you are right! just kidding.
	10:21pm Holly in NC: I really, really like the Wimps lp. And I LOVED Thurman Munson.
	10:22pm Barkevious Shabazz: @G aw yeahhhh. Who is that yodeler?
	10:22pm G: nice save, upstate :)
	10:22pm upstatesean: but sweet cheri, don't you love that he plays the baseball crap, too?!
	10:23pm Joe B: baseball and hockey seem to be the top sports among the FMU staff
	10:23pm G: my ex wife's... i just dogsat him two weeks ago while she visited an 89-yo aunt in boca raton... and yeah, he yodels and yowls.
	10:24pm Alex d'Edgewater: scharpling's all about basketball
	10:25pm Uncle Michael: Are we sure Mike LuPEEka isn't really Mike LOOpica?
	10:26pm Joe B: that is true Alex!
	10:26pm upstatesean: hey G, thanks. Would make a good defense in court: "I was just kidding!"
	10:26pm Barkevious Shabazz: @G I'd get ahold of that decree and move the pooch over to your column.
	10:27pm G: @upstate: it's worth a try in a pinch, especially if one has painted oneself seriously into a corner :)
	10:28pm Kat in Chicago: I like the idea of a "power pop dispute" myself.
	10:28pm Uncle Michael: EFD, I may have asked this before. Have you had an earful of Cirrone yet?
	10:28pm upstatesean: throwdown with the Pigeon. absurd
	10:29pm Uncle Michael: Not unlike a Sunshine Pop slap fight.
	10:29pm Holly in NC: Tues 4/9 now marked on calendar. Allah-Las.
	10:31pm G: dogs are nice to dogsit for, but i am always so short on time for everything i want or have to do that i don't want one every day. she was the dog-crazed one who heard about basenjis somewhere, back in the mid 00s, so he's hers... a family on the south shore of staten island had gotten him from a breeder out of state, and then the lady of the house didn't want him, so they offloaded him for cheap as a one or so year old...
	10:35pm Barkevious Shabazz: Our Basenji couldn't have cared less if we were around or not. Most self sufficient.
	10:35pm sweet cheri: getting back to evan's show next week,i feel that you'll come out on top evan!!
	10:36pm G: this one's not box trained :) that's a 15-20 walk 2-3 times a day! I can do that as a change of pace for a week, but not every day -- and i travel!
	10:36pm Holly in NC: re powerpop- does any have or has anyone heard the cd reissue of 'It happened..& nobody noticed' It's an old comp of Connecticut powerpop, I only have the lp, cd apparently much expanded. Confusingly, there's also an Aussie comp of same name.
	10:37pm Uncle Michael: Not I, Holly.
	10:37pm efd: Uncle Michael, I'm not sure what you're asking exactly...? Cerrone the disco artist?
	10:39pm sweet cheri: holly tell me do you dislike baseball like i do?
	10:39pm Uncle Michael: No, Cirrone the Italian power pop band with the excellent 2012 release.
	10:40pm efd: oh@ No, I haven't heard them, although you may have mentioned them before.
	10:40pm Chris in TX via RI: This is an amazing track
	10:41pm efd: I like that avatar, Chris!
	10:42pm Chris in TX via RI: Thanks! I'm pretty happy about the start of this season obviously.
	10:43pm Uncle Michael: cirroneband.com... Bosox should be a contender in that division this year since NY and Baltimore will both suck.
	10:43pm sweet cheri: you don't want to talk about the war of the airwaves next week evan?
	10:43pm Alex d'Edgewater: Wildcard out of the Central!
	10:44pm Uncle Michael: Personally, I'll miss the Bobby Valentine train wreck.
	10:44pm Holly in NC: Cheri, I love love love baseball, with great passion, so no ;-)
	10:44pm efd: I have a hard time seeing the rag-tag Red Sox overtaking Tampa and Toronto, much as I'd like them to do so.
	10:44pm Chris in TX via RI: I didn't think the Yanks would be this terrible, but to their credit their injured roster is pretty bad. I get to see the Sox for the first time in a decade next month when they come play the Rangers.
	10:45pm Uncle Michael: I agree with you but they could be in the WC hunt with some breaks.
	10:46pm Chris in TX via RI: Uncle Michael, yeah that was pretty damn embarrassing. I thought he'd do so much better.
	10:46pm Uncle Michael: I'll be grinding out another season with a last place team and just keep believing in Theo.
	10:46pm G: Yankees lose 7-4. They were behind 7-1, got 3 in the bottom of the eight, led off the ninth with a single, then crapped out totally, leaving Cano on deck.
	10:47pm Uncle Michael: @Chris: Sorry but that hire had disaster written all over it from the jump.
	10:48pm Chris in TX via RI: Since being in Texas I've grown somewhat fond of, well I pity, the Astros. I was psyched about opening day but then they went and blew it last night.
	10:49pm Alex d'Edgewater: Sorry about the Ricketts, Uncle.
	10:49pm G: A Rod earns more than the entire Astros player payroll this year, and may not even play.
	10:50pm Uncle Michael: The Ricketts' are fine. Well, not their dad...but hey.
	10:51pm Chris in TX via RI: @G that is hilarious to me.
	10:52pm G: I thought it worth mentioning :)
	10:52pm G: A Rod was at the home opener Monday, and was not introduced over the PA :)
	10:53pm Uncle Michael: Gotta love Theo bringing Hot Stove, Cool Music to Chicago.
	10:54pm sweet cheri: evan i want to know am i being singled out cause i don't like baseball?
	10:55pm efd: cheri I don't even know what you're talking about.
	10:55pm Alex d'Edgewater: the music isn't about baseball anymore, sweet cheri
	10:57pm Chris in TX via RI: I'm so glad I finally got a new computer. The stream sounds killer on my Grado 'phones. Not so much on the ol' droid.
	10:58pm sweet cheri: sorry to trouble you,evan
	10:58pm Uncle Michael: How does one pronounce "d'Edgewater," dazhe-wah-tare?
	10:58pm eddy in australia: Another week, another Fallen Leaves copped licks comment: was that the riff from "Boredom" by the Buzzcocks?
	10:59pm sweet cheri: g'night to you all see you next week evan.
	10:59pm efd: I believe it was, Eddy!
	11:00pm Barkevious Shabazz: Its not about baseball anymore Cheri! It's about us. And I'm leaving, dammit.
	11:00pm Stevel: eddy: Nice catch. I heard that too.
	11:00pm G: I'm not going away mad, I'm just going away :-) j/k!!!!
	11:04pm Stevel: Diversion: How to tour in a band, by Thor Harris: "#17-Clean up after yourself. What are you… a goddamn toddler?" beenlookingforthemagic.tumblr.com...
	11:04pm Alex d'Edgewater: like this
	11:07pm G: there are tickets? i thought it was just an excuse for a tongue twister :)
	11:10pm AZ: hahahahahahaha
	11:10pm G: holy crap, production values!!!!!!!!!!!
	11:10pm fleep: I was very nearly impressed.
	11:11pm Uncle Michael: Holy moly...I just activated dropbox on my tablet and my dropbox storage space tripled fro 25 to 75 gigs.
	11:11pm Droll: HOORAH! A classically botched "Ticket" injection! Every bit as good as the real thing!
	11:11pm Stevel: As Martin Mull used to say on Fernwood Tonight: "That's darned near interesting."
	11:13pm Barkevious Shabazz: My goal for the next 2days is to inquire at work "what are you, a goddam toddler," and avoid termination.
	11:14pm Chris in TX via RI: I could totally get away with that. I'm the youngest guy in my shop by ten years but by far the most mature. And I'm not mature by any means.
	11:15pm Uncle Michael: @Bark: I think that every time I see the way college students treat a public restroom.
	11:15pm Barkevious Shabazz: Everyone needs a goal.
	11:16pm Stevel: One step at a time.
	11:16pm Chris in TX via RI: You should probably record it for posterity. And repeated laughter.
	11:16pm Barkevious Shabazz: @Unc I think of it whenever I read about congress.
	11:17pm sweet cheri: btw who here thinks that evan can win next weeks "power pop throwdown"? i know evan can win, i'm totaly on your side evan..
	11:17pm Chris in TX via RI: Sad but true.
	11:17pm Alex d'Edgewater: Lock your door, Evan.
	11:18pm Chris in TX via RI: +1 for EFD
	11:18pm Uncle Michael: What are the Vegas odds?
	11:21pm Stevel: I like Bowie. There. I said it. Ken had an awesome Fake-Bowie set earlier today. Threatened to do three hours of fake Bowie. I'm there.
	11:22pm sweet cheri: well on that note i must head out for real..again night evan & all..looking forward to next week
	11:24pm steve: hey everybody. im very very late but present!
	11:25pm efd: hey steve! I'm sitting here with your adopted disco light behind me.
	11:25pm steve: yeah!!
	11:26pm steve: im unusually drunk for a wednesday and this is hitting the spot... i taught a workshop in my apartment with lots of alcohol and pizza
	11:27pm Droll: . o O ( Sweet Cheri says she's leaving for the fourth time, but there's still 30 minutes left in the show, so there's time for two more ) Tubes are underplayed. Great tune.
	11:28pm Stevel: So steve: What are the best combinations of alcohol and pizza?
	11:29pm Chris in TX via RI: Alcohol and pizza...two of my favorite things. Though I have yet to find a place in this city that knows how to do pizza right.
	11:31pm G: Pro tip: Just don't puke after having a meat pizza, especially pepperoni.
	11:31pm steve: Stevel, some french beer ive never heard of and incredibly heavy artichoke spinach ricotta pizza. they gave us the artichoke pizza by accident but it was so good
	11:31pm Pine: Wow this is so creepy and cool
	11:32pm Chris in TX via RI: That burns a little bit, no?
	11:32pm Stevel: Hey, Pine! How's tricks?
	11:32pm G: it could.
	11:36pm Barkevious Shabazz: This sounds like the finale music in revenge of the nerds after the football team is vanquished.
	11:37pm Pine: Hey Steve, I'm up late planting food :)
	11:38pm Stevel: This show has covered a lot of ground. Impressive. Planting food is good! What's for dinner?
	11:38pm efd: hi Pine! Off on a synthesizer tangent for a bit, not quite sure why...
	11:39pm G: Because synths.
	11:39pm Kat in Chicago: That Lloyd Cole & Roedelius (?!) was very nice indeed.
	11:39pm Kat in Chicago: what G said.
	11:39pm Droll: Stevel, I was just thinking the same thing -- didn't we start with a baseball theme and some epic freestyle ramble-on? MW start early this week?
	11:40pm jacob: no objections here, enjoying the synth tangent very much.
	11:44pm Pine: Tomato, potato, squash, peppers, synth is good for plants
	11:45pm Barkevious Shabazz: Sure do like me some john foxx era ultravox.
	11:47pm Stevel: Pine: Well thought. Me? I'm letting the dogs out before I go to bed. You? You're up late, I'd wager.
	11:47pm Uncle Michael: I only ever saw Midge Ure era Ultravox.
	11:48pm steve: i assumed it was like Wah-keem. like Joachin (Wah-Keen) Phoenix. i am probably wrong.
	11:49pm Barkevious Shabazz: Thought that pinnacle had a ultravox flave.
	11:52pm Caryn: Thought I should write something, seeing as I've lurked all show long. Nice show, EFD! And the first opportunity I've had to hear "Casey at the Bat". Growing up and reading the MAD parody, I always felt I was missing something, not being familiar with the original. Now I'm finally in the know!
	11:52pm Alex d'Edgewater: glad to hear this again
	11:54pm efd: cool, thanks Caryn!
	11:54pm Uncle Michael: Thanks for the ear-feast, edf. Take care everyone...good night, Cleveland!
	11:54pm efd: Alex, yeah, I'd been staying away from this cut since it was the single but I could stay away no longer!
	11:55pm Marmalade kitty: Hola! EFD ..I too have been lurking for a short time
	11:55pm G: gang's all here...
	11:55pm efd: alright!
	11:55pm efd: thanks Uncle Michael!
	11:56pm 12539: Out from lurking to say thanks for another show, Mr Funk.
	11:57pm Marmalade kitty: lurker amnesty here!
	11:57pm Chris in TX via RI: Great show EFD. G'night everyone!
