Cant wait for the live sets

What is the name of this set's vibe? Proto-hair-metal-disco-new wavers? Hopefully not. It all hung together very well.

It was before my time in Milwaukee but Bad Boy featured the original Cheap Trick vocalist, Xeno http://bit.ly/2gTTfyy

A.T.F.:

Who writes the lyrics in TPS..?

A little Velvets combined with Bongwater?

Fuzzy:

I'm searching for my Bongwater...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:45pm
efd:

interesting, thanks Joe R.!
A.T.F. I always assume (sometimes incorrectly) that the singer writes the lyrics. I am pretty sure that's the case with Paranoid Style, but not positive. and I didn't ask that during the interview.

This is a rockin set

Their full-length from last year was in my 2016 Best Of, just btw.

Mark from Bushwick:

shit, I lived in Milwaukee from 77 to 83, and I remember Bad Boy being pushed on the local Rock station wqfm, but that's all I recall. I think I didn't like them, too mainstream, probably, (I was in art school there at the time.)
I'm liking Paranoid Style
  9:51pm
Stevel:

Definitely great! I see they're doing a short (humane) west southern tour (Arizona on the 3rd, back to NOLA on the 9th.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:52pm
efd:

They seem to be very Straight Ahead '70s Rock, which I was not into so much at the time myself but it sounds good to me now! I picked up another LP of theirs too, both at the same used shop. Not sure if the Cheap Trick guy is on either of them.
  9:58pm
Mark from Bushwick:

I did hear the cut at the top of the show, sorta,( I was doing stuff in my woodshop) and, I was about to switch to listening to an archive, but the first set of your show kept me listening. I'll have to re-listen to Bad Boy!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:59pm

Im disappointed I didn't know this band
Just ordered their album though
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:04pm

@Stevel I don't think those are Paranoid Style tour dates you saw

efd: correct. Actually for Overlake. Good catch.

Now I remember- I just thought the name Bad Boy was incredibly incredibly dumb, so they couldn't be any good!

i like Proper Ornaments much. Wanted to go to bed early but the game was on and a cat jumped up on my lap and this band is great. All good tonight.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:50pm
efd:

@Julie this is the last song so you might be able to get to bed soon :)
  Swag For Life Member 10:52pm
Julie M:

Ha. Now I'm trapped by the convergence of cat on lap, and Game 7 (which might already be decided but who knows), and the anticipation of what efd will play next. I liked The Paranoid Style too, for the record!

Off Broadway is another under-appreciated band in that Bad Boy/Cheap Trick/Pezband/Shoes zone. Same part of the country. They did two LPs on Atlantic. Sounding great, EFD!

Kat in Chicago:

Not surprised. No le poisson rouge this week?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:31pm

Hi Clay! Isn't it past your bedtime? :)
I'm going to toss Fotomaker onto that same pile. Lovingly toss, I should add.

No Le Poisson Rouge, Kat! Maybe next time.

Yes, Clay should be asleep!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:33pm
Kat in Chicago:

I like this jam
  11:35pm
Clay:

Fotomaker, yes. Wally Bryson. That drifts into the Cleveland orbit ala Raspberries. Fringe mentions: Michael Stanley Band. Frank Yancovic, Glass Harp. Without Phil Keaggy, would life itself have been possible? Keep rocking'!

Its been a long day good night all
  Swag For Life Member 11:37pm

Aw, Evan, just say "Le Poisson Rouge" on air, apropos of nothing, and I can be released. And yes, how Clay can be up now is ponderous. Or Medson for that matter.
