	9:14pm Jeezy: Wow. I think it was seriously 88' the last time I heard this...
	9:14pm efd: thanks Scott! Got a couple of tunes you'll dig coming your way in this set.
	9:15pm Kat in Chicago: Apparently Evan didn't exhaust the topical tunes last week!

	9:19pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey EFD! Hey Scott W!
	9:19pm Toothgrinder Tom: That gum you like is going to come back in style.
	9:19pm johnk77: warren zanes wrote about adam schlesinger and mike shelley: https://www.montclairlocal.news/2020/04/04/town-square-adam-schlesinger-warren-zanes-montclair/
	9:20pm Ken From Hyde Park: EFD presents YMO! A fine pair of TLAs!
	9:21pm radioronan: Great set so far. Sounds fantastic. Thanks Evan
	9:22pm Motobro: Wendy !!
	9:22pm Chop Scott: Aha!
	9:23pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey Motobro!
	9:23pm Tome: Hi EFD and all , ahh this is just so right right now !<>!
	9:23pm Jeezy: Wow... Who even were the Electric Guitars?
	9:24pm Uncle Michael: So when Frente! was touring the US behind their hit in the '90s, I hung out with them when they played the Bottleneck in Lawrence, KS, because I knew Simon, the guitar player, from an online community. Before Soundcheck, their road manager David shouts, hey it's my picture! And it was. The place has hundreds of band photos on the walls. He'd been the lead singer for Royal Crescent Mob.
	9:24pm javakid: @johnk77 Marc Maron reposted an hour plus 2012 WTF interview of with Adam. It was really worth the time to listen.
	9:25pm modern blaze: p#d
	9:31pm Kat in Chicago: Good story, Uncle Michael! Wonder what that guy is doing now. I don't remember the last time I thought of Frente! either.
	9:32pm zach: that ymo track was awesome, couldn't make out any of the lyrics to identify it, so i came here. ty for the grooves!
	9:33pm Stevel: What's a newspaper? Amirite, UM?
	9:33pm Chop Scott: Totally righteous levels EFD!
	9:34pm Dominick: all good
	9:34pm Uncle Michael: Newspapers are those things that didn't used to be a laughingstock, Steve.
	9:34pm BH: for the best results, have a teletype sound effect playing in the background while reading the news
	9:35pm Uncle Michael: Kat, Simon and Angie reunited professionally some time ago. Back in the '90s, he was carrying a torch for her and she didn't wanna know.
	9:37pm johnk77: @javakid thanks i will listen later never met adam but saw tinted windows and they rocked
	9:38pm Uncle Michael: I think he was a lot of bands' road manager when touring the U.S. He was a hired gun.
	9:38pm Stevel: My newspaper is a single page in the morning paper. Its like they ran out of bullets and let the one reporter stay. Of course, its a JOA, and that allows Ogden Newspapers to finally make money off of the News-Sentinel. Its gross.
	9:39pm JakeGould: Newspaper is what you wrap fish in.
	9:39pm Uncle Michael: Most of the photos in my old paper are shot by reporters with cell phones.
	9:40pm johnk77: road managers are often hired guns, then later fired guns, speaking from experience
	9:41pm Dylan Puchala: bingo Bongos!
	9:41pm Stevel: Jake: Its truly amazing how people get by without a flourishing press product that is also excellent for the lining of bird cages.
	9:43pm not pant suzi: EFD....think about me when you walk into dark rooms with lava lamps...and bananas hanging from your ceiling...Olive You...
	9:44pm Marley P. Dogg: Groovy
	9:45pm BJ Skaught: This Barone single is glorious
	9:48pm nori/uk: Evan...your a sex symbol over here...your the male Diana Dors of radio...
	9:53pm mariano: Hey EFD, everyone.
	9:53pm Aitch: Just out of the coffin mariano?
	9:56pm herb.nyc: wfmu has been entertaining me for past 4.5 hours. Thank you DJs (and skeleton crew). But eek, the bio I'm reading, of Wendy Wasserstein, just talked about the rise of AIDS. I'm sure the bio of John Prine will talk about coronavirus.
	9:59pm mariano: Not quite Aitch, lol! Slept till 1pm today (about 8 hours ago), got a full 8 hours. Tuning in a bit late because Wed nights on WWOZ there's a great New Orleans oldies show that cuts right into EFD, it's my midweek dilemma.
	10:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: @mariano - I commented on Ken's show that I spotted a WWOZ bumper sticker when I was driving this morning. I wanted to get a picture for proof, but the dude flipped a left turn before I could get a shot. The car had NY plates, as I recall.
	10:01pm BH: helpful links seems nicer than just attaching photos of the newly arrived music to taunt people
	10:02pm Hoboken Jack: Galoshes
	10:02pm spodiodi: aloha, EFD, all!
	10:02pm Scott Williams: Blubber
	10:03pm P-90: Wouldn’t it be cool if efd could prove he’s “live” right now by mentioning that he’s been dubbed “the male Diana Dors of radio”, surely one of the plummiest accolades he has ever received...?
	10:05pm mariano: That's cool Ken! If he didn't use his blinker there's a good chance he's originally from down here, whatever his plates say ;)
	10:07pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Hoboken Jack! How you doing?
	10:08pm Fragonard: Sorta almost possibly could be Nada Surf
	10:08pm Hoboken Jack: Hey Handy! Hanging tough, or as tough as I get anyway. You're not still in that hotel, are you?
	10:09pm Handy Haversack: Ha! Please ask someone to send towels. Things are ... entering the realm of the unwell.
	10:10pm Hoboken Jack: Hello EFD! So good to have you live. Did Adam ever sing lead in any project?
	10:11pm efd: great question, Jack, and one to which I don't know the answer offhand.
	10:11pm mariano: Nice veiled Withnail allusion, Handy ;)
	10:13pm Aitch: I've had an ear worm of Leave the Biker since I heard the news.
	10:14pm Handy Haversack: @mariano, I'm going to do the washing up!
	10:14pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): keep it moist, folx
	10:15pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Hi, Evan and WFMU pals. Glad we're all here!
	10:15pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): in fact, i am going to take a bath now, chat later…
	10:15pm Handy Haversack: Hey, GST! Moist and tacky!
	10:15pm javakid: @Aitch It's been Barbara H for me
	10:16pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Handy: hey whatever floats your boat
	10:16pm mariano: Handy: There's a teabag growing in there!
	10:17pm Parq: javakid, Barbara H has some of Adam's best playing on it, and it's a great song to boot.
	10:17pm Carmichael: Heya Evan.
	10:17pm Chop Scott: Signal sounds great EFD--Scott W.!!!
	10:18pm Handy Haversack: Mariano: It's matter!
	10:18pm DannyBoyNYC: First time listener. Nice set!
	10:18pm efd: glad to hear it, thanks Scott (and Scott!)
	10:18pm P-90: Arrows!
	10:18pm Parq: I don't remember what month the first FOW album came out, but I remember listening to the shit out of it all through the summer of '97. Man, the memories.
	10:19pm johnk77: chinnichap
	10:21pm javakid: @Parq I worked at Atlantic before the signing and thru the first release. It was fall of 1996. Remember hearing the demo in their A&R to be's office. My favorite release while at Atlantic.
	10:21pm taryninstereo: Yaaas! Was hoping for this. Tinted Windows 4evr! #2009
	10:22pm mariano: Welcome aboard DannyBoyNYC. Never will you find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy ;)
	10:22pm Uncle Michael: The Tinted Windows record is just perfect. I'm killing the lights. Night, all. Thanks, EFD! (check your email)
	10:22pm Handy Haversack: We must be cautious.
	10:23pm mariano: Night Uncle M.
	10:23pm P-90: I had forgotten all about Tinted Windows, bittersweet to be reminded
	10:23pm efd: thanks and goodnight UM!
	10:24pm Stevel: The Summer Place is one of those songs, one of those hits. Hook, hook, hook!
	10:25pm P-90: Goodnight, Pufnstuf Dude
	10:27pm Carmichael: For being an old fart, I love Tinted Windows.
	10:27pm Handy Haversack: So good. That was so good. EFD, you are putting together a set that ALSO CELEBRATES. This freaking rocks.
	10:29pm Baja Joe: Great stuff.
	10:29pm Carmichael: Iha and Bun!
	10:30pm Mr. Pumpy: What up, party people? EFD...Alone Again Or...nice! Looks like I'm missing a good run here.
	10:31pm mariano: Yeah, not very familiar with FoW and not at all familiar with Tinted Windows, I really love what I've been hearing tonight as well as FMU in general the last few days. Great set, EFD. Hey Mr. Pumpy!
	10:31pm Handy Haversack: Mr. P! How goes?
	10:32pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano...I forgot to post the link tot he puzzle I mentioned earlier. No biggie, I'm just a slave to closure! www.jigsawplanet.com...
	10:33pm PJ: 2011 was 9 years ago. It shocks me, too.
	10:33pm Handy Haversack: @mariano, the music has been great. But so many tribute shows or sets. It gets at one. This has been so rocking. Still just massive kudos, @efd.
	10:34pm Mr. Pumpy: Yo, Handy! Did you share a link with me to a Star Trek online puzzle last week? Someone did, and I got into it yesterday and just wanted to say thanks.
	10:34pm Handy Haversack: Not I, Mr. P. Now I feel like a failure.
	10:35pm mariano: No, you posted the link before, Mr. P.
	10:35pm javakid: EFD you almost gave the impression of a dispatch from near the Fresh Kills
	10:36pm Bluesman: This is a wonderful break from the [crazy] world!
	10:36pm Figgsrock: Been listening to the show while playing bingo on Zoom with friends (a sentence I never thought I’d write) and it’s been excellent. And the Adam tribute was outstanding. Thanks again EFD for the great work.
	10:36pm johnk77: cheap fountains of smashing hanson
	10:37pm Stevel: I hear the funk. Definitely funkier.
	10:37pm P-90: Sounds funky to me, but what do I know...?
	10:38pm Handy Haversack: "Do you have any DJ premiums from Evan FUNK Davies? I would like a DJ premium from Evan FUNK Davies."
	10:38pm P-90: lol
	10:38pm Stevel: This comp COULD reappear on some future disco party playlist, in my opinion.
	10:39pm Stevel: How will I love you? Like no other.
	10:39pm David J: Bring on da funk! Envious of people who are hanging with friends on Zoom ha. I've never done that and it sounds cool. Showin' my old age here. Thanks for the live set EFD!
	10:40pm EL: This track makes me want to roller skate!
	10:40pm Kat in Chicago: Todd did a nice Adam Schlesinger tribute on Saturday, including an amazing and hilarious song Schlesinger wrote for the Tony Awards one year called "It's Not Just For Gays Anymore." A random favorite of mine: the theme from the short-lived Comedy Central show "Crank Yankers", just a perfect TV theme.
	10:40pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano...I thought I posted the one I did...not the one of the balloons. Whatevs...as my students say. They don't really say that. Handy...failure you are not! I am looking through all of the character building stuff now. I may roll one up with the random.org generator, but as mentioned, I want to roll those dice!
	10:41pm Stevel: David J. Not hard to do. I'm using Facetime more often for calls. Nice to see a face.
	10:41pm efd: I heard that on Saturday, Kat, that was great!
	10:42pm mariano: Oh sorry Mr. P, didn't follow the 2nd link. Hey, what was that movie dialogue from?
	10:42pm Carmichael: @mariano, search Tinted Windows. Such a cool family tree, and a great sound IMO.
	10:42pm Handy Haversack: Ain't nothing like dice in hand, Mr. P. Sometimes we used to have an afternoon of m friends coming over to roll up characters for games we don't have time to play, just as a way to pass the time over a few drinks.
	10:43pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano...what movie dialogue?
	10:43pm Handy Haversack: @kat: YEAH! Todd's show was so kickass!
	10:43pm Kat in Chicago: I like hearing different DJs do tributes (assuming I have any interest at all in the artist), it's so interesting hearing what resonates with someone specifically.
	10:43pm David J: @Stevel, Yeah, I've been using Facetime more often now too...Organizing something with a group using Zoom is a great idea to see multiple faces. I've used Zoom to log in to live webcasts but have never set up something with friends ha
	10:44pm Carmichael: I was in total planetary alignment with Evan’s Ocasek tribute.
	10:44pm mariano: Thanks Carmichael, I will. Mr. P: the dialogue at the end of Under Cover Lover. Maybe it's part of the song, but it sounded like it's from a movie/TV show, was wondering if the song was also used in a soundtrack.
	10:45pm Kat in Chicago: @Carmichael me too, that was an exemplary one!
	10:47pm Stevel: Well, this is super-fucking groovy! Who's Byron, anyway?
	10:47pm Carmichael: Up the Irish! Pillow Queen ...
	10:47pm Mr. Pumpy: Ahhh...zoned out for a minute talking to pops. Missed it.
	10:48pm Stevel: Good health to you and your Pops, Mr. P!
	10:49pm Carmichael: Or is Pillow Queen different than Pillow Queens?
	10:50pm Stevel: #WFMUquestions Carmichael: Or is Pillow Queen different than Pillow Queens?
	10:51pm Aitch: Perhaps they're part of the wider pillow community?
	10:51pm Handy Haversack: #WFMUquestions
	10:51pm Handy Haversack: CRANKING IT
	10:51pm spodiodi: yeah
	10:51pm David J: nice segue
	10:52pm Carmichael: I got nothing.
	10:52pm Carmichael: Saw the Army in SF s loooong time ago.
	10:52pm Stevel: No pillow nor queen is exactly the same.
	10:53pm Mr. Pumpy: @Stevel...thanks! Happy I'm here for him through all of this. Living with him now, for the most part. I appreciate the sentiment. I feel I vent a bit too much around here, but I probably don't. Anyhow, ya'll been a great help and I hope I have helped others in similar situations and even through this entire insanity we are going through right now!
	10:53pm Michael Ackerman: It's frightening to me that I can hear four bars of Are Friends Electric and think "that's a different version"
	10:53pm efd: so true, Michael!
	10:54pm David J: @Michael ha I had the same reaction!
	10:54pm pgalub: Great show efd! Interesting to hear Gary N singing an octave lower on most of this version.
	10:54pm Michael Ackerman: at least we've found our tribe of like minded people
	10:54pm van chinski: Ditto
	10:54pm spodiodi: one of my most played songs of all time
	10:54pm spodiodi: thanks, Evan
	10:54pm JakeGould: Adorable how Gary Numan’s voice is cracking here.
	10:55pm David J: Very cool version
	10:55pm Stevel: Mr. P: Strange fucking times, indeed. Glad you're with your dad. WFMU and y'all are truly a grounding influence on my life. Peace.
	10:55pm Carmichael: I believe it was the Fillmore.
	10:55pm Kat in Chicago: yeah Mr. Numan sounds almost like a regular bloke on this version
	10:55pm Aitch: Waiting up late at night to see if it would come one so you could tape it
	10:55pm Handy Haversack: Julie played Robyn Hitchcock's cover the other day. Holy crap. It really works. But yeah, you're always like, wait, this isn't the way it ...
	10:55pm Carmichael: Science!
	10:55pm efd: these 'first recordings' reissues of Replicas and The Pleasure Principle are must-buys
	10:56pm Stevel: Kat: Well said. Much less the robot weirdo we would come to love.
	10:56pm Kat in Chicago: @Aitch I remember those days!
	10:57pm Carmichael: Turns out that robot weirdos are the cool people.
	10:57pm Michael Ackerman: Hey, no Kraftwerk--it was Florian's birthday this week you know
	10:57pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): enjoying this set!
	10:59pm Stevel: Aitch: You're obviously about my age. Carmichael: It makes sense. Too much sense, perhaps.
	10:59pm Mr. Pumpy: Anyone have ten seconds of silence out there, or is it just my setup?
	10:59pm Stevel: NOt me
	10:59pm David J: Yeah, I had the cut out too...very brief.
	10:59pm efd: nah, something went awry for a few moments.
	10:59pm mariano: I had it too Mr. Pumpy. Was wondering if it was me.
	11:00pm efd: "nah" as in "not just you"
	11:00pm Bad bob: It was me
	11:00pm Marley P. Dogg: EFD - any word from the neighbor?
	11:00pm David J: It's the neighbor!
	11:00pm Stevel: Damnnit Bob!
	11:00pm Chop Scott: 91.1 air signal went silent. It's back solid.
	11:01pm Handy Haversack: It was Bad bob.
	11:01pm David J: @Marley ha we had the same thought at the same time.
	11:01pm mariano: Aww, you mean I threw my speakers out the window too soon?
	11:01pm Scott Williams: Yeah folks, it happened across the board, EXACTLY while I was 20 feet away washing my goddamn hands!
	11:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: I thought it was a secret EAS, meant exclusively for the 1% people.
	11:02pm JakeGould: @Scott: That’s what you get for washing your hands!
	11:02pm Handy Haversack: (Scott, the OTHERS and I got the real message.)
	11:03pm Stevel: What's killing me is that i (streaming) didn't notice anything, and I've been sitting here for at least 15 minutes. Maybe I'm high?
	11:03pm spodiodi: by the timt i restarted my playa, it was already back
	11:03pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy. What did I miss, other than Scott washing his hands?
	11:03pm mariano: Basically Scott washed his hands and everything went to hell.
	11:04pm Handy Haversack: @Phillippe, we're STILL talking about it!
	11:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: The announcement was where to go to pick up your share of the $2 trillion bailout package. If you didn't hear it, you get diddly.
	11:06pm David J: Nah Ken don't lose hope...it's just going to be delayed 2-3 weeks. Hang in there buddy!
	11:06pm P-90: “Funky? You’re soaking in it.”
	11:06pm Phillippe Bastille: I TOLD my wife I didn't want to put up shelving. I TOLD my wife that something great was probably happening on FMU. I wind up putting up shelving and see what happens?
	11:07pm Handy Haversack: Sad thing: we also all put up shelving.
	11:07pm David J: All you missed was silence
	11:08pm Mr. Pumpy: So...I ducked out for a few. Let's see, now we should NOT wash our hands? Also, is it imperative I put up shelving or not?
	11:09pm JakeGould: Go shelve yourself.
	11:10pm Phillippe Bastille: Washing hands is still required, shelving installation is dependent on how afraid you are of your partner
	11:10pm Mr. Pumpy: Get shelved!
	11:11pm Stevel: Shelving is a gateway project.
	11:11pm Handy Haversack: Don't worry, @efd. Lotta irons. Lotta fires. You are doing super great.
	11:11pm Chop Scott: This is great EFD!!
	11:11pm Kat in Chicago: Phillippe, I hope your partner appreciates your unshelfish act
	11:12pm David J: Thank you 100 ft. ethernet cable.
	11:12pm db: 100 feet and runnin
	11:12pm Phillippe Bastille: Yeah, you put just one little shelf up a little less than level, a plate falls off, and before you know it, you're hearing "this is why we can't have nice things"...
	11:13pm Phillippe Bastille: @Kat wait 'til she hears what KFHP said.
	11:13pm Bad bob: I hate it when they throw the plates
	11:14pm Mr. Pumpy: You should offer the alternative that all the items that may be on a proposed shelf be continuously juggled as an alternative display method.
	11:14pm Handy Haversack: Kate: "Tell Evan how great he's doing!" HH: "I did! There's my comment! I told him!" Kate: "Is everyone else telling him?" HH: "Yeah, mostly. Some people are talking about shelves." Kate: "Some people are talking about shelves?!"
	11:15pm David J: LOL
	11:15pm efd: hahaha
	11:15pm efd: tell Kate thanks for sticking up for me! :)
	11:15pm Phillippe Bastille: @Mr. Pumpy Ah, I'd still get the same "blah blah great gandmom's blah blah came from Scotland blah blah"
	11:16pm P-90: Sounds like the shelving construction area needs loudspeakers. Problem solved.
	11:16pm Phillippe Bastille: @Handy you know, I think I'd really like that Kate woman.
	11:16pm Mr. Pumpy: Evan...you are doing a great job. No bullshit. I'm sure you'd also install shelves with the same deft ingenuity and attention to detail!
	11:17pm Handy Haversack: She's got your back, @efd. Also, guys, I kinda gotta stop talking about shelves ...
	11:17pm Phillippe Bastille: Yeah, let's shelve that discussion for now.
	11:17pm Phillippe Bastille: And good work, Evan
	11:17pm Kat in Chicago: Gotta turn in early tonight, closing the laptop but will have the app on for a bit. I'll show myshelf out...
	11:18pm Aitch: Just not feeling my shelf of late
	11:18pm Mr. Pumpy: Doh!
	11:18pm Stevel: Damnnit Kat! Good night.
	11:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: Can't passover a good shelf conversation, though.
	11:20pm Marley P. Dogg: EFD - thanks for the great show tonight. As usual, I am blaming Scott for my hangover tomorrow - thanks for working on he boards!
	11:22pm JakeGould: @KenFromHydePark: THAT IS FUNNY!!!
	11:23pm efd: thanks for the supportive comments everyone, really appreciate it!
	11:24pm Handy Haversack: Marley, remind me to point out tomorrow how I watched Scott give you a hangover and there was nothing any of us could do to stop it. Publicly. Loudly!
	11:25pm mariano: Night Kat!
	11:25pm Marley P. Dogg: Handy - haha will do - I’ll remind you around 8 am
	11:26pm JakeGould: The shelf that father bought for two zuzim.
	11:26pm P-90: No more gently shelf-effacing humor?
	11:29pm Mr. Pumpy: Oh...I meant to mention this earlier. Temporary Residence is putting up a new album for free download every day through the rest of April to help out all strapped by this economic slowdown...and quagmire of mental fuckedness, of course. The first three days were Maserati, Eluvium, and today's is William Basinski. Just figured some folks here might dig. The Basinski is still up for another 30+ mins. temporaryresidence.bandcamp.com
	11:29pm Marley P. Dogg: Seriously though - where would we be without woof moo right now)
	11:30pm Handy Haversack: Not worth contemplating, Marley ... the horror ... the horror ...

	11:34pm Marley P. Dogg: It’s the eternal question
	11:35pm P-90: Social Media Airhorn sounds good from the Home Record Room Studio
	11:36pm JakeGould: The social distancing media airhorn.
	11:36pm Handy Haversack: Well, Kate didn't support that.
	11:36pm Phillippe Bastille: Awesome! Always a favorite band of mine as well, EFD
	11:37pm efd: haha, sorry Kate!
	11:38pm efd: nice, glad to hear that Phillippe!
	11:38pm Phillippe Bastille: Aren't these the guys that wrote a song about Earth Day but got the date wrong in the lyrics?
	11:39pm efd: YES! haha
	11:39pm efd: but they got a good rhyme out of it at least, iirc
	11:40pm Phillippe Bastille: Can't help but love a band with my same attention to detail
	11:40pm Handy Haversack: Looks like all is forgiven. Though Kate requests the Connells. Definitely Kate. Yup.

	11:43pm mariano: That's why they call you E Eff D!
	11:44pm JakeGould: Stupid babysitter’s hat.
	11:44pm Handy Haversack: mariano! That was all the money we had!
	11:45pm Phillippe Bastille: @Handy dude, you can make me laugh...
	11:45pm mariano: I had to, they were gonna find it!
	11:46pm Handy Haversack: <helicopters/>
	11:47pm mariano: One of my favorite Goodfellas lines, just because of the way the guy said it, was the cop telling Henry "Buh-bye dickhead!" at the station house.
	11:48pm mariano: www.youtube.com...
	11:48pm Handy Haversack: When the Tartan Day parade was canceled there was like an hour when I was all like, great! This means we can go to the Eyelids waffle concert! Reality keeps being a tricky proposition.
	11:49pm JakeGould: Evan “Two Times Ty” Davies
	11:52pm Stevel: efd's pivot game is strong, segue-wise.
	11:52pm mariano: He's gonna go get the set list, get the set list.
	11:54pm Handy Haversack: GodDAMN it, I wanted the set list. What a show, @efd! Amazing. Like a party at your house we all somehow went to without spilling anything! A fantasy ... gossamer dreams ...
	11:54pm Hoboken Jack: That Late Cambrian was super nice.
	11:54pm Mr. Pumpy: Ya wanna laugh? Last week this guy asked me to christen his kid. Yeah, for 7,000 I charge!
	11:55pm van chinski: Ditto on the Late Cambrian.

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from April 8, 2020

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 8, 2020: live from Studio E(FD), it's Wednesday night! With a set in memory of Adam Schlesinger.

	9:14pm Jeezy: Wow. I think it was seriously 88' the last time I heard this...
	9:14pm efd: thanks Scott! Got a couple of tunes you'll dig coming your way in this set.

	9:19pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey EFD! Hey Scott W!
	9:19pm Toothgrinder Tom: That gum you like is going to come back in style.
	9:19pm johnk77: warren zanes wrote about adam schlesinger and mike shelley: https://www.montclairlocal.news/2020/04/04/town-square-adam-schlesinger-warren-zanes-montclair/
	9:20pm Ken From Hyde Park: EFD presents YMO! A fine pair of TLAs!
	9:21pm radioronan: Great set so far. Sounds fantastic. Thanks Evan
	9:22pm Motobro: Wendy !!
	9:22pm Chop Scott: Aha!
	9:23pm Wendy del Formaggio: Hey Motobro!
	9:23pm Tome: Hi EFD and all , ahh this is just so right right now !<>!
	9:23pm Jeezy: Wow... Who even were the Electric Guitars?
	9:24pm Uncle Michael: So when Frente! was touring the US behind their hit in the '90s, I hung out with them when they played the Bottleneck in Lawrence, KS, because I knew Simon, the guitar player, from an online community. Before Soundcheck, their road manager David shouts, hey it's my picture! And it was. The place has hundreds of band photos on the walls. He'd been the lead singer for Royal Crescent Mob.
	9:24pm javakid: @johnk77 Marc Maron reposted an hour plus 2012 WTF interview of with Adam. It was really worth the time to listen.
	9:25pm modern blaze: p#d
	9:31pm Kat in Chicago: Good story, Uncle Michael! Wonder what that guy is doing now. I don't remember the last time I thought of Frente! either.
	9:32pm zach: that ymo track was awesome, couldn't make out any of the lyrics to identify it, so i came here. ty for the grooves!
	9:33pm Stevel: What's a newspaper? Amirite, UM?
	9:33pm Chop Scott: Totally righteous levels EFD!
	9:34pm Dominick: all good
	9:34pm Uncle Michael: Newspapers are those things that didn't used to be a laughingstock, Steve.
	9:34pm BH: for the best results, have a teletype sound effect playing in the background while reading the news
	9:35pm Uncle Michael: Kat, Simon and Angie reunited professionally some time ago. Back in the '90s, he was carrying a torch for her and she didn't wanna know.
	9:37pm johnk77: @javakid thanks i will listen later never met adam but saw tinted windows and they rocked
	9:38pm Uncle Michael: I think he was a lot of bands' road manager when touring the U.S. He was a hired gun.
	9:38pm Stevel: My newspaper is a single page in the morning paper. Its like they ran out of bullets and let the one reporter stay. Of course, its a JOA, and that allows Ogden Newspapers to finally make money off of the News-Sentinel. Its gross.
	9:39pm JakeGould: Newspaper is what you wrap fish in.
	9:39pm Uncle Michael: Most of the photos in my old paper are shot by reporters with cell phones.
	9:40pm johnk77: road managers are often hired guns, then later fired guns, speaking from experience
	9:41pm Dylan Puchala: bingo Bongos!
	9:41pm Stevel: Jake: Its truly amazing how people get by without a flourishing press product that is also excellent for the lining of bird cages.
	9:43pm not pant suzi: EFD....think about me when you walk into dark rooms with lava lamps...and bananas hanging from your ceiling...Olive You...
	9:44pm Marley P. Dogg: Groovy
	9:45pm BJ Skaught: This Barone single is glorious
	9:48pm nori/uk: Evan...your a sex symbol over here...your the male Diana Dors of radio...
	9:53pm mariano: Hey EFD, everyone.
	9:53pm Aitch: Just out of the coffin mariano?
	9:56pm herb.nyc: wfmu has been entertaining me for past 4.5 hours. Thank you DJs (and skeleton crew). But eek, the bio I'm reading, of Wendy Wasserstein, just talked about the rise of AIDS. I'm sure the bio of John Prine will talk about coronavirus.
	9:59pm mariano: Not quite Aitch, lol! Slept till 1pm today (about 8 hours ago), got a full 8 hours. Tuning in a bit late because Wed nights on WWOZ there's a great New Orleans oldies show that cuts right into EFD, it's my midweek dilemma.
	10:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: @mariano - I commented on Ken's show that I spotted a WWOZ bumper sticker when I was driving this morning. I wanted to get a picture for proof, but the dude flipped a left turn before I could get a shot. The car had NY plates, as I recall.
	10:01pm BH: helpful links seems nicer than just attaching photos of the newly arrived music to taunt people
	10:02pm Hoboken Jack: Galoshes
	10:02pm spodiodi: aloha, EFD, all!
	10:02pm Scott Williams: Blubber
	10:03pm P-90: Wouldn’t it be cool if efd could prove he’s “live” right now by mentioning that he’s been dubbed “the male Diana Dors of radio”, surely one of the plummiest accolades he has ever received...?
	10:05pm mariano: That's cool Ken! If he didn't use his blinker there's a good chance he's originally from down here, whatever his plates say ;)
	10:07pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Hoboken Jack! How you doing?
	10:08pm Fragonard: Sorta almost possibly could be Nada Surf
	10:08pm Hoboken Jack: Hey Handy! Hanging tough, or as tough as I get anyway. You're not still in that hotel, are you?
	10:09pm Handy Haversack: Ha! Please ask someone to send towels. Things are ... entering the realm of the unwell.
	10:10pm Hoboken Jack: Hello EFD! So good to have you live. Did Adam ever sing lead in any project?
	10:11pm efd: great question, Jack, and one to which I don't know the answer offhand.
	10:11pm mariano: Nice veiled Withnail allusion, Handy ;)
	10:13pm Aitch: I've had an ear worm of Leave the Biker since I heard the news.
	10:14pm Handy Haversack: @mariano, I'm going to do the washing up!
	10:14pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): keep it moist, folx
	10:15pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Hi, Evan and WFMU pals. Glad we're all here!
	10:15pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): in fact, i am going to take a bath now, chat later…
	10:15pm Handy Haversack: Hey, GST! Moist and tacky!
	10:15pm javakid: @Aitch It's been Barbara H for me
	10:16pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Handy: hey whatever floats your boat
	10:16pm mariano: Handy: There's a teabag growing in there!
	10:17pm Parq: javakid, Barbara H has some of Adam's best playing on it, and it's a great song to boot.
	10:17pm Carmichael: Heya Evan.
	10:17pm Chop Scott: Signal sounds great EFD--Scott W.!!!
	10:18pm Handy Haversack: Mariano: It's matter!
	10:18pm DannyBoyNYC: First time listener. Nice set!
	10:18pm efd: glad to hear it, thanks Scott (and Scott!)
	10:18pm P-90: Arrows!
	10:18pm Parq: I don't remember what month the first FOW album came out, but I remember listening to the shit out of it all through the summer of '97. Man, the memories.
	10:19pm johnk77: chinnichap
	10:21pm javakid: @Parq I worked at Atlantic before the signing and thru the first release. It was fall of 1996. Remember hearing the demo in their A&R to be's office. My favorite release while at Atlantic.
	10:21pm taryninstereo: Yaaas! Was hoping for this. Tinted Windows 4evr! #2009
	10:22pm mariano: Welcome aboard DannyBoyNYC. Never will you find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy ;)
	10:22pm Uncle Michael: The Tinted Windows record is just perfect. I'm killing the lights. Night, all. Thanks, EFD! (check your email)
	10:22pm Handy Haversack: We must be cautious.
	10:23pm mariano: Night Uncle M.
	10:23pm P-90: I had forgotten all about Tinted Windows, bittersweet to be reminded
	10:23pm efd: thanks and goodnight UM!
	10:24pm Stevel: The Summer Place is one of those songs, one of those hits. Hook, hook, hook!
	10:25pm P-90: Goodnight, Pufnstuf Dude
	10:27pm Carmichael: For being an old fart, I love Tinted Windows.
	10:27pm Handy Haversack: So good. That was so good. EFD, you are putting together a set that ALSO CELEBRATES. This freaking rocks.
	10:29pm Baja Joe: Great stuff.
	10:29pm Carmichael: Iha and Bun!
	10:30pm Mr. Pumpy: What up, party people? EFD...Alone Again Or...nice! Looks like I'm missing a good run here.
	10:31pm mariano: Yeah, not very familiar with FoW and not at all familiar with Tinted Windows, I really love what I've been hearing tonight as well as FMU in general the last few days. Great set, EFD. Hey Mr. Pumpy!
	10:31pm Handy Haversack: Mr. P! How goes?
	10:32pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano...I forgot to post the link tot he puzzle I mentioned earlier. No biggie, I'm just a slave to closure! www.jigsawplanet.com...
	10:33pm PJ: 2011 was 9 years ago. It shocks me, too.
	10:33pm Handy Haversack: @mariano, the music has been great. But so many tribute shows or sets. It gets at one. This has been so rocking. Still just massive kudos, @efd.
	10:34pm Mr. Pumpy: Yo, Handy! Did you share a link with me to a Star Trek online puzzle last week? Someone did, and I got into it yesterday and just wanted to say thanks.
	10:34pm Handy Haversack: Not I, Mr. P. Now I feel like a failure.
	10:35pm mariano: No, you posted the link before, Mr. P.
	10:35pm javakid: EFD you almost gave the impression of a dispatch from near the Fresh Kills
	10:36pm Bluesman: This is a wonderful break from the [crazy] world!
	10:36pm Figgsrock: Been listening to the show while playing bingo on Zoom with friends (a sentence I never thought I’d write) and it’s been excellent. And the Adam tribute was outstanding. Thanks again EFD for the great work.
	10:36pm johnk77: cheap fountains of smashing hanson
	10:37pm Stevel: I hear the funk. Definitely funkier.
	10:37pm P-90: Sounds funky to me, but what do I know...?
	10:38pm Handy Haversack: "Do you have any DJ premiums from Evan FUNK Davies? I would like a DJ premium from Evan FUNK Davies."
	10:38pm P-90: lol
	10:38pm Stevel: This comp COULD reappear on some future disco party playlist, in my opinion.
	10:39pm Stevel: How will I love you? Like no other.
	10:39pm David J: Bring on da funk! Envious of people who are hanging with friends on Zoom ha. I've never done that and it sounds cool. Showin' my old age here. Thanks for the live set EFD!
	10:40pm EL: This track makes me want to roller skate!
	10:40pm Kat in Chicago: Todd did a nice Adam Schlesinger tribute on Saturday, including an amazing and hilarious song Schlesinger wrote for the Tony Awards one year called "It's Not Just For Gays Anymore." A random favorite of mine: the theme from the short-lived Comedy Central show "Crank Yankers", just a perfect TV theme.
	10:40pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano...I thought I posted the one I did...not the one of the balloons. Whatevs...as my students say. They don't really say that. Handy...failure you are not! I am looking through all of the character building stuff now. I may roll one up with the random.org generator, but as mentioned, I want to roll those dice!
	10:41pm Stevel: David J. Not hard to do. I'm using Facetime more often for calls. Nice to see a face.
	10:41pm efd: I heard that on Saturday, Kat, that was great!
	10:42pm mariano: Oh sorry Mr. P, didn't follow the 2nd link. Hey, what was that movie dialogue from?
	10:42pm Carmichael: @mariano, search Tinted Windows. Such a cool family tree, and a great sound IMO.
	10:42pm Handy Haversack: Ain't nothing like dice in hand, Mr. P. Sometimes we used to have an afternoon of m friends coming over to roll up characters for games we don't have time to play, just as a way to pass the time over a few drinks.
	10:43pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano...what movie dialogue?
	10:43pm Handy Haversack: @kat: YEAH! Todd's show was so kickass!
	10:43pm Kat in Chicago: I like hearing different DJs do tributes (assuming I have any interest at all in the artist), it's so interesting hearing what resonates with someone specifically.
	10:43pm David J: @Stevel, Yeah, I've been using Facetime more often now too...Organizing something with a group using Zoom is a great idea to see multiple faces. I've used Zoom to log in to live webcasts but have never set up something with friends ha
	10:44pm Carmichael: I was in total planetary alignment with Evan’s Ocasek tribute.
	10:44pm mariano: Thanks Carmichael, I will. Mr. P: the dialogue at the end of Under Cover Lover. Maybe it's part of the song, but it sounded like it's from a movie/TV show, was wondering if the song was also used in a soundtrack.
	10:45pm Kat in Chicago: @Carmichael me too, that was an exemplary one!
	10:47pm Stevel: Well, this is super-fucking groovy! Who's Byron, anyway?
	10:47pm Carmichael: Up the Irish! Pillow Queen ...
	10:47pm Mr. Pumpy: Ahhh...zoned out for a minute talking to pops. Missed it.
	10:48pm Stevel: Good health to you and your Pops, Mr. P!
	10:49pm Carmichael: Or is Pillow Queen different than Pillow Queens?
	10:50pm Stevel: #WFMUquestions Carmichael: Or is Pillow Queen different than Pillow Queens?
	10:51pm Aitch: Perhaps they're part of the wider pillow community?
	10:51pm Handy Haversack: #WFMUquestions
	10:51pm Handy Haversack: CRANKING IT
	10:51pm spodiodi: yeah
	10:51pm David J: nice segue
	10:52pm Carmichael: I got nothing.
	10:52pm Carmichael: Saw the Army in SF s loooong time ago.
	10:52pm Stevel: No pillow nor queen is exactly the same.
	10:53pm Mr. Pumpy: @Stevel...thanks! Happy I'm here for him through all of this. Living with him now, for the most part. I appreciate the sentiment. I feel I vent a bit too much around here, but I probably don't. Anyhow, ya'll been a great help and I hope I have helped others in similar situations and even through this entire insanity we are going through right now!
	10:53pm Michael Ackerman: It's frightening to me that I can hear four bars of Are Friends Electric and think "that's a different version"
	10:53pm efd: so true, Michael!
	10:54pm David J: @Michael ha I had the same reaction!
	10:54pm pgalub: Great show efd! Interesting to hear Gary N singing an octave lower on most of this version.
	10:54pm Michael Ackerman: at least we've found our tribe of like minded people
	10:54pm van chinski: Ditto
	10:54pm spodiodi: one of my most played songs of all time
	10:54pm spodiodi: thanks, Evan
	10:54pm JakeGould: Adorable how Gary Numan’s voice is cracking here.
	10:55pm David J: Very cool version
	10:55pm Stevel: Mr. P: Strange fucking times, indeed. Glad you're with your dad. WFMU and y'all are truly a grounding influence on my life. Peace.
	10:55pm Carmichael: I believe it was the Fillmore.
	10:55pm Kat in Chicago: yeah Mr. Numan sounds almost like a regular bloke on this version
	10:55pm Aitch: Waiting up late at night to see if it would come one so you could tape it
	10:55pm Handy Haversack: Julie played Robyn Hitchcock's cover the other day. Holy crap. It really works. But yeah, you're always like, wait, this isn't the way it ...
	10:55pm Carmichael: Science!
	10:55pm efd: these 'first recordings' reissues of Replicas and The Pleasure Principle are must-buys
	10:56pm Stevel: Kat: Well said. Much less the robot weirdo we would come to love.
	10:56pm Kat in Chicago: @Aitch I remember those days!
	10:57pm Carmichael: Turns out that robot weirdos are the cool people.
	10:57pm Michael Ackerman: Hey, no Kraftwerk--it was Florian's birthday this week you know
	10:57pm Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): enjoying this set!
	10:59pm Stevel: Aitch: You're obviously about my age. Carmichael: It makes sense. Too much sense, perhaps.
	10:59pm Mr. Pumpy: Anyone have ten seconds of silence out there, or is it just my setup?
	10:59pm Stevel: NOt me
	10:59pm David J: Yeah, I had the cut out too...very brief.
	10:59pm efd: nah, something went awry for a few moments.
	10:59pm mariano: I had it too Mr. Pumpy. Was wondering if it was me.
	11:00pm efd: "nah" as in "not just you"
	11:00pm Bad bob: It was me
	11:00pm Marley P. Dogg: EFD - any word from the neighbor?
	11:00pm David J: It's the neighbor!
	11:00pm Stevel: Damnnit Bob!
	11:00pm Chop Scott: 91.1 air signal went silent. It's back solid.
	11:01pm Handy Haversack: It was Bad bob.
	11:01pm David J: @Marley ha we had the same thought at the same time.
	11:01pm mariano: Aww, you mean I threw my speakers out the window too soon?
	11:01pm Scott Williams: Yeah folks, it happened across the board, EXACTLY while I was 20 feet away washing my goddamn hands!
	11:01pm Ken From Hyde Park: I thought it was a secret EAS, meant exclusively for the 1% people.
	11:02pm JakeGould: @Scott: That’s what you get for washing your hands!
	11:02pm Handy Haversack: (Scott, the OTHERS and I got the real message.)
	11:03pm Stevel: What's killing me is that i (streaming) didn't notice anything, and I've been sitting here for at least 15 minutes. Maybe I'm high?
	11:03pm spodiodi: by the timt i restarted my playa, it was already back
	11:03pm Phillippe Bastille: Howdy. What did I miss, other than Scott washing his hands?
	11:03pm mariano: Basically Scott washed his hands and everything went to hell.
	11:04pm Handy Haversack: @Phillippe, we're STILL talking about it!
	11:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: The announcement was where to go to pick up your share of the $2 trillion bailout package. If you didn't hear it, you get diddly.
	11:06pm David J: Nah Ken don't lose hope...it's just going to be delayed 2-3 weeks. Hang in there buddy!
	11:06pm P-90: “Funky? You’re soaking in it.”
	11:06pm Phillippe Bastille: I TOLD my wife I didn't want to put up shelving. I TOLD my wife that something great was probably happening on FMU. I wind up putting up shelving and see what happens?
	11:07pm Handy Haversack: Sad thing: we also all put up shelving.
	11:07pm David J: All you missed was silence
	11:08pm Mr. Pumpy: So...I ducked out for a few. Let's see, now we should NOT wash our hands? Also, is it imperative I put up shelving or not?
	11:09pm JakeGould: Go shelve yourself.
	11:10pm Phillippe Bastille: Washing hands is still required, shelving installation is dependent on how afraid you are of your partner
	11:10pm Mr. Pumpy: Get shelved!
	11:11pm Stevel: Shelving is a gateway project.
	11:11pm Handy Haversack: Don't worry, @efd. Lotta irons. Lotta fires. You are doing super great.
	11:11pm Chop Scott: This is great EFD!!
	11:11pm Kat in Chicago: Phillippe, I hope your partner appreciates your unshelfish act
	11:12pm David J: Thank you 100 ft. ethernet cable.
	11:12pm db: 100 feet and runnin
	11:12pm Phillippe Bastille: Yeah, you put just one little shelf up a little less than level, a plate falls off, and before you know it, you're hearing "this is why we can't have nice things"...
	11:13pm Phillippe Bastille: @Kat wait 'til she hears what KFHP said.
	11:13pm Bad bob: I hate it when they throw the plates
	11:14pm Mr. Pumpy: You should offer the alternative that all the items that may be on a proposed shelf be continuously juggled as an alternative display method.
	11:14pm Handy Haversack: Kate: "Tell Evan how great he's doing!" HH: "I did! There's my comment! I told him!" Kate: "Is everyone else telling him?" HH: "Yeah, mostly. Some people are talking about shelves." Kate: "Some people are talking about shelves?!"
	11:15pm David J: LOL
	11:15pm efd: hahaha
	11:15pm efd: tell Kate thanks for sticking up for me! :)
	11:15pm Phillippe Bastille: @Mr. Pumpy Ah, I'd still get the same "blah blah great gandmom's blah blah came from Scotland blah blah"
	11:16pm P-90: Sounds like the shelving construction area needs loudspeakers. Problem solved.
	11:16pm Phillippe Bastille: @Handy you know, I think I'd really like that Kate woman.
	11:16pm Mr. Pumpy: Evan...you are doing a great job. No bullshit. I'm sure you'd also install shelves with the same deft ingenuity and attention to detail!
	11:17pm Handy Haversack: She's got your back, @efd. Also, guys, I kinda gotta stop talking about shelves ...
	11:17pm Phillippe Bastille: Yeah, let's shelve that discussion for now.
	11:17pm Phillippe Bastille: And good work, Evan
	11:17pm Kat in Chicago: Gotta turn in early tonight, closing the laptop but will have the app on for a bit. I'll show myshelf out...
	11:18pm Aitch: Just not feeling my shelf of late
	11:18pm Mr. Pumpy: Doh!
	11:18pm Stevel: Damnnit Kat! Good night.
	11:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: Can't passover a good shelf conversation, though.
	11:20pm Marley P. Dogg: EFD - thanks for the great show tonight. As usual, I am blaming Scott for my hangover tomorrow - thanks for working on he boards!
	11:22pm JakeGould: @KenFromHydePark: THAT IS FUNNY!!!
	11:23pm efd: thanks for the supportive comments everyone, really appreciate it!
	11:24pm Handy Haversack: Marley, remind me to point out tomorrow how I watched Scott give you a hangover and there was nothing any of us could do to stop it. Publicly. Loudly!
	11:25pm mariano: Night Kat!
	11:25pm Marley P. Dogg: Handy - haha will do - I’ll remind you around 8 am
	11:26pm JakeGould: The shelf that father bought for two zuzim.
	11:26pm P-90: No more gently shelf-effacing humor?
	11:29pm Mr. Pumpy: Oh...I meant to mention this earlier. Temporary Residence is putting up a new album for free download every day through the rest of April to help out all strapped by this economic slowdown...and quagmire of mental fuckedness, of course. The first three days were Maserati, Eluvium, and today's is William Basinski. Just figured some folks here might dig. The Basinski is still up for another 30+ mins. temporaryresidence.bandcamp.com
	11:29pm Marley P. Dogg: Seriously though - where would we be without woof moo right now)
	11:30pm Handy Haversack: Not worth contemplating, Marley ... the horror ... the horror ...
	11:30pm JakeGould: @MarleyPDogg: That is one of the Passover questions.
	11:34pm Marley P. Dogg: It’s the eternal question
	11:35pm P-90: Social Media Airhorn sounds good from the Home Record Room Studio
	11:36pm JakeGould: The social distancing media airhorn.
	11:36pm Handy Haversack: Well, Kate didn't support that.
	11:36pm Phillippe Bastille: Awesome! Always a favorite band of mine as well, EFD
	11:37pm efd: haha, sorry Kate!
	11:38pm efd: nice, glad to hear that Phillippe!
	11:38pm Phillippe Bastille: Aren't these the guys that wrote a song about Earth Day but got the date wrong in the lyrics?
	11:39pm efd: YES! haha
	11:39pm efd: but they got a good rhyme out of it at least, iirc
	11:40pm Phillippe Bastille: Can't help but love a band with my same attention to detail
	11:40pm Handy Haversack: Looks like all is forgiven. Though Kate requests the Connells. Definitely Kate. Yup.
	11:40pm Stevel: Top freaking WFMU hit. Great cover!
	11:41pm mariano: This cover of Into the Fire is the FMU song of the moment, isn't it? Love it!
	11:41pm JakeGould: Here is Ty Segall’s “So I guess I am isolated so I will cover Nilsson…” album; 100% free on Bandcamp. tysegall.bandcamp.com...
	11:41pm Joe D.: man this one getting alotta spins
	11:42pm efd: IT'S SO GOOD!
	11:42pm mariano: This song has outlasted my store of Goodfellas quips ;)
	11:42pm efd: I almost wasn't gonna play it because so many other people have, and then I said eff that!
	11:42pm Scott Williams: Segal Smeagol even has a good version of Coconut!
	11:43pm van chinski: This is pretty wild.
	11:43pm mariano: That's why they call you E Eff D!
	11:44pm JakeGould: Stupid babysitter’s hat.
	11:44pm Handy Haversack: mariano! That was all the money we had!
	11:45pm Phillippe Bastille: @Handy dude, you can make me laugh...
	11:45pm mariano: I had to, they were gonna find it!
	11:46pm Handy Haversack: <helicopters/>
	11:47pm mariano: One of my favorite Goodfellas lines, just because of the way the guy said it, was the cop telling Henry "Buh-bye dickhead!" at the station house.
	11:48pm mariano: www.youtube.com...
	11:48pm Handy Haversack: When the Tartan Day parade was canceled there was like an hour when I was all like, great! This means we can go to the Eyelids waffle concert! Reality keeps being a tricky proposition.
	11:49pm JakeGould: Evan “Two Times Ty” Davies
	11:52pm Stevel: efd's pivot game is strong, segue-wise.
	11:52pm mariano: He's gonna go get the set list, get the set list.
	11:54pm Handy Haversack: GodDAMN it, I wanted the set list. What a show, @efd! Amazing. Like a party at your house we all somehow went to without spilling anything! A fantasy ... gossamer dreams ...
	11:54pm Hoboken Jack: That Late Cambrian was super nice.
	11:54pm Mr. Pumpy: Ya wanna laugh? Last week this guy asked me to christen his kid. Yeah, for 7,000 I charge!
	11:55pm van chinski: Ditto on the Late Cambrian.
	11:55pm P-90: Whether live from Montgomery St, prerecorded, or live from home, this show is always as outstanding as it’s been for many years. Thanks efd.
	11:55pm Phillippe Bastille: Thanks EFD! Just turn out the lights when you're done -- you can leave the dishes 'til tomorrow
