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.

Good Evening, Evan and everyone!
hope you are all staying COOL!

hi everyone! I have that same "Wet Job" response, slugluv! Always reminds me of Hurrah in particular.

Jake, trying to figure out how/if to work that into the conversation!

At least we’re on the same facacta wavelength.

I took a shower when I came home from work and changed my clothes… And I still think I need to do that again.

icy in Bklyn soon to be LA:

I realized I didn’t have any towels after my after work shower tonite, so I just stood naked in front of my biggest fan.
  9:36pm
icy in Bklyn soon to be LA:

btw, thanks EFD for those tix a few weeks ago to that band none of us will ever pronounce correctly. We stood, we listened, we criticized heavily, and realized they were just doing the same thing our band was doing, only with an immensely greater level of pressure than we have.
Good tones and good times..

btw, my biggest fan is actually my cat, and he wasn’t giving an inch to that propeller driven hot air mover of his..

Well you perked up my night with those Wussy tix. Thanks EFD! :-)
  11:15pm
steveL:

Somehow, I never saw the dbs, although I'm pretty sure they came to Madison in the early 80s. That's too bad, as I like pretty much everything associated with them, especially the PH track.

I saw Pete when he played at what used to be Brownies but then became... Damn, I already forget. Now it's Coney Island baby?

Bill Kelly is the SHIT. It is obligatory to proclaim this. The Sunday King of Rock and Roll. And then some.

I dont remember exactly but i think it was probably bill kelly's show that first drew me to WFMU as well, probably read about it on the old bomp! mailing list

Going out with the power, I see. An old favorite might fit into the end of this set.

Also, Power, the band is nigh in-Google-able.

Yeah, it goes on a bit. Long fade?

one word repeated over and over and over again?

Jeezy. Buffalo Trace is a delight and a bargain. Obviously, by the rate of my posts, it gets the job done.

That might be the one.
