	9:05pm javakid: and for the record I'm not talkin' Ira's show which in retrospect is where I should have been listening.
	9:05pm Stevel: In from the top! A rarity in the world of evening dog walking. Hallo UM, others!

	9:09pm prof.fuzz: greetings from the north dallas suburbs!
	9:09pm Scott Williams: EFD & Figgsrock, levels have been rock solid since the end of Johnny's Dance Band - thanks for the prehistoric Chet Bolins Evan!
	9:09pm Kat in Chicago: @Stevel yup!
	9:10pm javakid: @prof.fuzz down I-35 about 225 miles south.
	9:11pm Aitch: Seems Pam was pretty safe..
	9:11pm prof.fuzz: @javakid new braunfels?
	9:13pm javakid: eh, maybe I've got my mileage off a bit, NW Austin outer ring.
	9:13pm Terre T: @ efd--- sounding GREAT---so early psych furs? Were they one of the bands u played/first INTRODUCED to NY ?
	9:13pm taryninstereo: Memories of this band at Monty Hall!
	9:13pm Joe B: hey efd and everyone
	9:14pm prof.fuzz: @javakid no worries. we're about 200 miles into Austin from here.
	9:15pm efd: Terre T! I will take maybe a very small partial sliver of credit for that! Great show this afternoon!
	9:16pm efd: howdy prof. fuzz, Joe B. and taryn! Thanks for making those levels level, Scott W!
	9:16pm Kat in Chicago: I used to play that first Psych Furs album all the time, beginning to end
	9:17pm Chop Scott: I always feel better when Joe B. is in the house!
	9:19pm Elle Tor's Husband: Greta cut! Errr Great Cut!
	9:19pm Terre T: @ efd--UR TOO HUMBLE about yr provenance
	9:21pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, efd! Enjoying the show.
	9:21pm Terre T: @efd -oh + thanx!
	9:25pm Elle Tor's Husband: Used to print Eric Martin tour t-shirts. That's how old I am
	9:26pm Uncle Michael: They had t-shirts back then?
	9:27pm efd: hilarious, Mr. Elle Tor! Welcome Gaylord!
	9:27pm Elle Tor's Husband: @Uncle Michael made out of moss and twigs. Scratchy
	9:27pm Joe B: helen reddy and kim fowley!
	9:27pm Kat in Chicago: EFD with the Helen Reddy deep cuts
	9:27pm DC_Listener: you gotta play angie baby
	9:28pm Stevel: Aw, hadn't heard about Helen Reddy. I liked all of her hits. Joe B: This song?
	9:28pm Figgsrock: Oh great Helen Reddy choice EFD. Losing her and Mac Davis on the same day was like having a big chunk of my childhood snipped away in the space of a couple hours.
	9:29pm Elle Tor's Husband: Gotta be Waddie Wattel waddy ya say
	9:29pm efd: @DC_Listener, check back during Singles Going Steady Week!
	9:29pm Elle Tor's Husband: Wachtel
	9:30pm Joe B: @stevel - i stand corrected - fowley produced 6 songs on that album but apparently not that beatles cover
	9:30pm taryninstereo: Wow, have a look at all the DJs in the chat!
	9:31pm Stevel: Ah. I was going to say, that guy did some good in the world, every once and a while. Mac and Helen, both 78. [cue mysterious music]
	9:31pm Joe B: re angie baby - not sure what is weirder - the cartoon film made for the song, or the acting scenes for it on the carol burnett show
	9:31pm javakid: Mac Davis is also sad news. As a youngin' I didn't even know he was a singer/songwriter and knew him from North Dallas Forty (which is par excellence)
	9:32pm Joe B: fingers crossed efd does not play the three Reddy cuts I have slated ...
	9:32pm Stevel: DJ roulette
	9:33pm efd: this is my last one Joe, so you're safe!
	9:34pm Joe B: now I just have to worry about McGasko. he's understated yet crafty with his tributes when he does them
	9:34pm Uncle Michael: Someone needs to play "Summer of '71".
	9:34pm Chris: Too much cheese. Get serious.
	9:34pm Terre T: holy snap
	9:35pm Julie M: Hey, Joe B., I don't think when we lose a musical icon that we mind hearing those songs over again. RIP Helen Reddy.
	9:35pm Joe B: UM - guessing it won't be Gaylord!
	9:35pm Joe B: Julie, good point
	9:35pm Michael in Montclair: Hello EFD and everyone.
	9:36pm Bob: What is this bed music?!?!
	9:36pm Joe B: @Chop Scott - back at ya!
	9:36pm Uncle Michael: The word is out, Joe???
	9:37pm Joe B: a source close to the upcoming page ...
	9:37pm taryninstereo: Assisted living?
	9:37pm Uncle Michael: ahhhh
	9:39pm Joe B: Reddy was so huge from 1971-76 and then seemed to vanish rather quickly off the cultural radar. I don't recall oldies radio ever playing her much if at all.
	9:41pm Joe B: no angie baby was earlier by a few years
	9:42pm Elle Tor's Husband: Did they say " Play Angie Baby for me" and then chase you out on a balcony?
	9:43pm Joe B: more importantly Glen now plays with Liverpool every March at the Beatles convention!
	9:43pm DC_Listener: I had never heard that improper dancing song, loved it
	9:43pm Jett: @efd I strongly suggest you check out "One Way Ticket" by Helen Reddy clearly her best song!
	9:45pm Chop Scott: @Joe B.: Wolfgang & I say Big Cheers!
	9:45pm Scott Williams: Awww, thanks for that Evan!
	9:45pm Gaylord Fields: @UM @Joe B: Both Helen Reddy and Mac Davis had their first No. 1 hits in WHAT year?
	9:46pm ?: Sounds like Scott's back from Maine. Tough transition. Not sure how to tag him... Does it mean we can get back to coking (Julia of Tom&Julia)
	9:46pm Sam Pocker: popping over to chat with fellow listeners. hello fellow listeners, how's everything?
	9:46pm slugluv1313: oh no! Mac Davis too?!? thanks so much for the Helen Reddy tribute, EFD -- when i was a kid, i thought her songs could be incredibly corny, but damn, her voice! so gorgeous! and correct me if i am wrong, but didn't Helen Reddy and Mac Davis both have "Summer replacement" variety shows? i still crack up when i recall Mac Davis starting to sing, "Baby baby don't get hooked on me" . . . and amending his lyrics to, "Baby, don't get hoof and mouth disease" :)
	9:47pm Scott Williams: Hi Julia! I know you meant "cooking", and YES PLEASE! The skeleton crew sings your culinary praises constantly
	9:47pm Uncle Michael: Gaylord, I rest my case. (ducking)
	9:48pm Figgsrock: @gaylord 1972?
	9:48pm Kat in Chicago: I think you're right about the summer replacement shows, slugluv. Variety shows used to be such a big thing...
	9:49pm Joe B: don't recall reddy's tv show but the mac davis show was on for several years. if it was a replacement show, it lasted quite a while IIRC
	9:49pm slugluv1313: @ Joe B -- i remember Angie Baby on The Carol Burnett Show! strange indeed!
	9:49pm Julia (Tom&Julia): Scott, no comment — English is my second language, plus Maine withdrawal, and this board activity is so intimidating. But I so miss folding T-shirts.
	9:49pm Gaylord Fields: @UM: You'll get your say, Mr. Burger, and then I will win. @Figgsrock: Yup, 1972!!!
	9:50pm Uncle Michael: Which of the two had Waylon Flowers & Madam on first?
	9:50pm Joe B: @slugluv - yeah that clip has always stayed with me. weird. me and my sister talked about it for years
	9:50pm efd: hi Sam, Julia, Jett, Michael in Montclair, Julie, and did I say hi to Stevel yet??
	9:50pm Figgsrock: @gaylord I’ll admit that I had that year in mind after writing her obit for my day job last night because of “I Am Woman.”
	9:51pm Uncle Michael: Gaylord, that (presumed) pop culture reference sailed right over my head!
	9:51pm Kat in Chicago: Looked it up, Joe B, you're right about the Mac Davis show. Ran for a couple of years. Helen Reddy's was only 8 episodes.
	9:52pm Gaylord Fields: UM: Burger, as in Hamilton.
	9:52pm Joe B: I remember Reddy being on everyone else's show, literally every other one, but forgot she had a show
	9:52pm Uncle Michael: Oy. I'm so embarrassed.
	9:52pm slugluv1313: @ Kat in Chicago -- right? Manhattan Transfer had a Summer show too -- and where i was growing up, not much to do except watch TV
	9:52pm Joe B: alright hamilton! oops, wrong decade
	9:52pm Stevel: HI efd! If not, this was a good time.
	9:52pm Figgsrock: Helen also was one of the hoss for The Midnight Special for a couple years too. She had a rather diverse resume for an early 70s pop star.
	9:53pm Mat: Great to hear our local lads Vintage Crop on your show
	9:53pm prof.fuzz: Ha! I just clicked the bandcamp link for vintage crop. digging it!
	9:53pm Joe B: @figgsrock - yes! great clip on the web now of her singing to love somebody with the bee gees
	9:54pm javakid: 10 second delay may need to be instituted EFD
	9:54pm Gaylord Fields: Shields and frickin' Yarnell were given a show back then, and so were the Starland Vocal Band.
	9:54pm slugluv1313: @ Joe B. -- ah, thanks! yeah, not sure -- maybe Mac Davis' show started out as a Summer show, then was picked up to be on during the "regular" Fall through Spring season??
	9:54pm ultradamno: Yeah, I was rather liking the Fall-alike sound of it, what was wrong?
	9:54pm John from NP: Whoa mama!
	9:55pm Gaylord Fields: @ultradamno: Coupla Bozo No-nos slipped through.
	9:55pm patrick321: Mac Davis was pretty good in North Dallas Forty.
	9:55pm efd: @Mat sorry to cut it short! I've played other tunes of theirs where they didn't have such potty mouths.
	9:55pm slugluv1313: @Kat in Chicago -- thanks for looking that up!
	9:55pm ultradamno: Ah, I see.
	9:55pm Mike From Brooklyn: @Gaylord - Starland Vocal Band too???!!!! I'm guessing theirs was in the afternoon :-p
	9:55pm Kat in Chicago: @Mike LOL
	9:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Mike From Brooklyn: Haha! It was on network TV, not channel J/35!
	9:56pm slugluv1313: @ Gaylord -- omg YES! and The Hudson Brothers too, iirc??
	9:57pm Stevel: Looking for a Helen Reddy meets the Hollywood Vampires link. Her manager was a genius, taking the squeaky-clean shine off of her image.
	9:57pm Uncle Michael: razzle dazzle!
	9:57pm patrick321: @Ultradamno the Fall sounding thing was also working for me
	9:57pm Mike From Brooklyn: @Gaylord (and @Kat) I recall watching many variety shows back then, but I missed out on the Starland Vocal Band one.
	9:58pm taryninstereo: I want to shout out the great WFMU playlist on Spotify that has the band with the word bleeps on it.
	9:58pm Joe B: don't forget the variety show format limped into 1980 - barely - with pink lady and jeff
	9:58pm Gaylord Fields: @slugluv1313: Yep! And Ken Berry, and Ben Vereen (two separate shows, mind you)! I guess other kids in the 1970s went out to play on summer nights. Their loss.
	10:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Haha, Gaylord. Next, you'll be telling us Cher won an Oscar and Sonny was elected to Congress.
	10:02pm slugluv1313: @ Gaylord -- ha ha! right? or at least they had some cool places to go, cool stuff to do :) and i was really really hoping that my brain was messing with me, but apparently not: "After appearing as guests on the Sonny & Cher show in early 1974, a producer for CBS was impressed by the brothers' stage presence and offered them their own variety hour on the network for the summer slot.[6] The Hudson Brothers Show[7] aired Wednesday nights on CBS from July 31, 1974 to August 28, 1974.[8] The show was so successful that CBS devised The Hudson Brothers Razzle Dazzle Show, which aired on Saturday mornings, from September 7, 1974 to August 30, 1975, in a half-hour format.[8] The group's television exposure accrued the group a heightened level of fame, and resulted in the brothers becoming teen idols."
	10:02pm Kat in Chicago: At some point I largely deserted prime time TV in favor of hiding in my room with books and radio. So I mostly missed out on the later years of the variety show.
	10:03pm Gaylord Fields: @Ken From Hyde Park: Riiight — and their child that they paraded around in the frilly dresses is actually a dude.
	10:03pm Joe B: was always great when the Hudsons were on hollywood squares, and they had all three crammed into the lower right square
	10:03pm Uncle Michael: Sleaford-a-like!
	10:04pm TVP: IIRC, that Starland Vocal Band show was one of David Letterman's first TV gigs.
	10:04pm Mat: You can't play tracks like that Vintage Crop on radio in the US? Even at that hour?
	10:04pm Gaylord Fields: (Whew! It was hard constructing that joke without misgendering or deadnaming Chaz.)
	10:04pm Joe B: we can't afford to find out
	10:05pm slugluv1313: @ Kat in Chicago -- yup! same here! spent a lot of time in my room, with records, radio, books -- and STILL somehow had time on my hands to watch these shows (i grew up in what could be called "the sticks") . . . by the time i heard "Bored Teenagers," i was sooooo able to relate :)
	10:05pm prof.fuzz: oh hey! I recognize this one... thanks EFD!
	10:05pm ultradamno: @Mat You could put it on a cable TV show at this hour but not radio. Go figure.
	10:05pm efd: ha, yr welcome prof.!
	10:06pm Gaylord Fields: @Mat: Our station's "safe harbor" for playing words with certain profanities is 11pm– 6am.
	10:06pm efd: @Mat it was before 10pm, but even after 10 it's still too much of a risk as Joe B. says. One FCC complaint/fine and it could be a huge financial hit for the station.
	10:06pm ultradamno: This (Love Canal) could be one of those "young people don't know what this means" memes
	10:06pm Elle Tor's Husband: I knew I recognized that dread bass line - the great Greta Flipper... Err Great Flipper!!! RIP Will Shatter
	10:07pm prof.fuzz: If Augie Meyers were sitting in with Low covering Flipper... Or something like that.
	10:09pm prof.fuzz: @ultradamno my son (and PF63 drummer) is taking a class on environmental health in college this semester and Love Canal is one of the case studies. he's gonna drop that version into his online discussion group.
	10:10pm Uncle Michael: We need a third "furs" band to complete a trifecta.
	10:10pm Elle Tor's Husband: @prof.fuzz exactly! This one is a little cleaner cause nobody kicked in the 4/12
	10:10pm efd: ha! Didn't even think of that UM!
	10:11pm Gaylord Fields: @ultradamno: Actual headline from that incident — "Hooker Sued in Love Canal Damage"! Around 30 years ago, a friend who grew up nearby the site in WNY took me ona drive through Love Canal, and it was completely desolate, except for one holdout guy flying an American flag from his porch.
	10:11pm ultradamno: Handsome Furs?
	10:13pm ultradamno: @gaylord Did you get a pic. Actually, it might ruin the mental image that just created.
	10:13pm Joe B: wow throwback song here!
	10:13pm prof.fuzz: @Elle Tor's Husband We set out to cover Flipper but not just copy Flipper. We cleaned up the guitar, cranked the reverb, and let the organ do the heavy lifting. We have a whole set of Flipper covers that we play on occasion. Will probably do a Twitch livesteam at Halloween and do those tunes again. I was a Flipper fanatic in high school...
	10:14pm ultradamno: But those darn chemical spilling hookers!
	10:14pm Elle Tor's Husband: I was doing security at Flippers first show (79'?) I was back stage and they all had wigs on and threw them off as they roared to life on stage. They all looked like concentration survivors. At the California Hall in the basement club I saw 300 people pogoing ( yes that) to a 20 minute rendition of "Superfreak" good times
	10:14pm efd: @Joe hadn't thought of it in years but something in the Mango Furs song prompted a memory! Luckily I have the CD at home!
	10:15pm prof.fuzz: @ultradamno Sounds like a sequel waiting to be written! Love Canal Hookers
	10:15pm RobinSays: I love this Lost Kids song! Many thanx for playing it...
	10:15pm prof.fuzz: @Elle Tor's Husband AWESOME!
	10:15pm Joe B: wow. will never forget their performance on Terre's show then going to see them at brownie's afterwards. or the night before maybe. or both?
	10:16pm ultradamno: Live audio of a Flipper show I attended (near the end of the line for Will, as I recall. We met him briefly, he was quite friendly, if entirely altered) www.youtube.com...
	10:16pm efd: I think it was the same night! Yeah, I was thinking the same thing!
	10:17pm Gaylord Fields: @ultradamno: We were already intruding, and to be honest, I wasn't exactly eager to get out of the car or even roll down my window. I think I did snap one thru the window.
	10:18pm prof.fuzz: Thanks for the link @ultradamno We're doing a livestream with Jean Caffeine on Saturday. She used to be Will's roommate.
	10:18pm Elle Tor's Husband: @prof fuzz I was in a band with Bruce Loose in between his gigs with Flipper ( 85' - 86' ). Blurry
	10:19pm prof.fuzz: @Elle Tor's Husband Super cool.
	10:21pm Joe B: nice, loved duncan and all of his band members!
	10:22pm prof.fuzz: Fletch reference?
	10:22pm Stevel: ultradamno: Did you make the recording? Very cool to hear the Bid Black a few weeks ago. I'll definitely listen to the Flipper. Never got the chance to see them. Once or twice, punks I knew drove to Chicago from Madison to see them (or not, depending on numerous variables) . I heard it was a scene not for the weak.
	10:24pm ultradamno: @steve I did not. That one may have been by a friend of mine. I have a DOA tape from the Jockey too. The Big Black was a board recording.
	10:26pm spodiodi: greetings efd and company
	10:30pm ultradamno: He produced the gold standard Screamin' Blue Messiahs' release Good & Gone
	10:30pm Joe B: gotta start over!
	10:31pm slugluv1313: @Elle Tor's Husband -- AMAZING! only got to see FLIPPER once -- but it may have been their first gig in NYC? CBGB, with Bad Posture opening . . . unbelievable experience and yes, DEFINITELY not for the weak!
	10:33pm mr_donutsu: Ego and Dave in the house!!!
	10:34pm mariano: Hey efd, Crew, and FMU stalwarts.
	10:35pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Happy slightly belated birthday Evan!
	10:37pm mariano: Oh yeah, birthday? Happy birthday efd!
	10:38pm Julie M: I liked the White Hills track. And did you just make another masterful mix? Birthday power!
	10:38pm slugluv1313: HELLOOOOOOO TERRE T.!!!!!! if you are still here :) (yeah still working on a lot of boring stuff away from comments)
	10:39pm slugluv1313: Happy Birthday, EFD!
	10:39pm efd: @ultradamno I'm recording an interview with Chris Thompson from the Messiahs on Friday!
	10:39pm spodiodi: HPY BDY, EFD
	10:40pm efd: thanks for the birthday greetings Todd and all, that's nice to see. Twas a big one this year.
	10:40pm Elle Tor's Husband: @slugluv 1313 I was lucky to work at The Temple back then and Flipper was the practically House Band. So many great SF bands from back then The Lewd, Murder, Code Of Honor, The Avengers ( this is a Shout- Out from and old punk so please bear with me please it's a good memory exercise) when was I? Oh ya... Sleepers, Tuxedo Moon, The Offs, Dead Kennedys, The Mutants, ( what's that nurse? It's time for my bath and apple sauce?) gotta go...
	10:40pm CC: Can't wait till the next debate with the clown who won't shut up!!!...:)
	10:41pm slugluv1313: oooooo more ACR -- so cool to hear them again!
	10:42pm ultradamno: @efd Awesome! Such a great live band. Some ephemera from when I saw them: twitter.com... twitter.com...
	10:42pm slugluv1313: @ CC -- aghhhhhh i only watched in tiny doses but i am STILL feeling traumatized!
	10:44pm CC: I've been away awhile but that's just the first thing that popped into my mind to share with you all...cheerz!!!...:)
	10:44pm ultradamno: @ETH Love all that stuff. The Subterranean catalog was an early education for me.
	10:45pm prof.fuzz: So much great music coming out of SF in the late 70s and early 80s. I fully intended to leave Houston for SF as soon as I finished high school, but alas...
	10:47pm Handy Haversack: I'm a little distracted by caregiving and baseball tonight, but happy bday, efd! A Certain Ratio was completely new to me until this week. Nice WFMU synergy going. Hey, pals!
	10:47pm mariano: Handy!
	10:48pm Blues Mandinga: Ea!
	10:48pm Joe B: great version!
	10:49pm Handy Haversack: Mariano!
	10:49pm prof.fuzz: digging this a lot.
	10:49pm Mat: Loving this. It just shows how disco Kiss were
	10:50pm DouglasInDallas: This queen of japan is fan-funkin-tastic!
	10:50pm Chop Scott: I'm still hearing Paul Stanley!
	10:50pm Elle Tor's Husband: @ultradamno Hell ya Subterranean was my go to label back then. 415 Records with Howie Klein. Alternative Tentacles. SF was a small label town as far as Punk but what we lacked in reach we made up with punch
	10:51pm slugluv1313: hiya Handy! A Certain Ratio is awesome -- dig deeper and ENJOY!
	10:53pm slugluv1313: hi mariano!
	10:55pm CC: With particularly well constructed bell curves you can discover definite deviations from the norm!!!...:)
	10:57pm Handy Haversack: Nice, thanks, slugluv!
	10:59pm slugluv1313: @ Elle Tor's Husband -- amazing! never got out to SF, but got a buncha the records, which i still cherish (via mail order -- remember that? yup i am an old punk too!) Tuxedomoon came to NYC in . . . 1981? 1982? i was in awe, totally mesmerized
	11:00pm slugluv1313: @ Handy -- they were a fave of mine when i was still in college, late 1970s/early 1980s -- glad to see they are still making cool music!
	11:01pm prof.fuzz: Thank you! Appreciate the support EFD!
	11:02pm CC: Just travel to Florida they let you do everything down there!!!...:)
	11:04pm mariano: What's up, slugluv!
	11:04pm ultradamno: @slug This show? tuxedomoonarchives.bandcamp.com...
	11:05pm Elle Tor's Husband: Here are a few rough practice studio recordings of The Weasels which was the Post-Flipper stuff I did with Bruce in 85' - 86'. Working out some funky funky stuff. William Burgess on Guitar, Bruce Loose on Bass and shitty comments and me on drums.Its too bad listening back I thought we had the kernal of something tuff https://www.dropbox.com/s/lb1en0ab7p4w47i/25%20East%20Bay%20Jam.mp3?dl=0 Frightwig cover - https://www.dropbox.com/s/lkkfk3evwdq8o23/26%20Kiss%20Before%20The%20Kill.mp3?dl=0
	11:06pm ultradamno: ^^Blaine's notes on that page is worth reading, all those Tux Archive releases come with some interesting info
	11:07pm ultradamno: ...or ARE worth reading.
	11:10pm ultradamno: Also, speaking of SF and Bandcamp, Chrome released an inexpensive remix of In A Dream recently chromemusic.bandcamp.com...
	11:10pm slugluv1313: @ ultradamno -- oh, i WISH! but this was later, in a larger venue (like Irving Plaza, but i do not think it was there) -- i was already out of college, and working in Manhattan -- one of the students where i worked was from SF, turned out she was friends with them and had also been at the show
	11:11pm pgalub: Excellent segue efd! ;)
	11:12pm slugluv1313: @ Elle Tor's Husband -- oh yes FRIGHTWIG! loved them, they played Maxwell's here in Hoboken (early 80s)
	11:12pm efd: oh that is high praise coming from you, Pete! Thanks!
	11:13pm CC: Sometimes I try to remember what the worst thing I ever felt was???...:)
	11:13pm swivs: dBs! Where in the world where in the world you been?
	11:17pm Alex of Chicago: This is my new jam.
	11:18pm CC: I think it was when I visited with my real father after years and years and we sat and talked over a beer and he said he felt trapped and it was all because of money?!?...:)
	11:20pm Joe B: another supergroup!
	11:21pm efd: oh, good point Joe! Now I can pretend I deliberately bookended the set with supergroups!
	11:22pm CC: This is sooo profound!!!...:)
	11:22pm Stevel: Take the win!
	11:25pm CC: People just keep dying!!!...:/
	11:27pm Joe B: MORE AIRHORN
	11:29pm Stevel: efd sounds winded after that healthy round of airhorn.
	11:29pm Gaylord Fields: Why do I love that airhorn so much? That's right — it's because I think and I feel.
	11:31pm efd: it's tough keeping up with the airhorn!
	11:31pm CeeDub: @EFD Is the MAN!
	11:32pm CC: Yes..!.. The Thinker and the Do'er... no allowance for the other!!!!...:)
	11:34pm Rtintera: Great show tonight. I was finally able to stay awake long enough to catch it all. Thanks EFD
	11:36pm CC: The reason most people stay awake is because they might not want to miss something!!!...:)
	11:37pm spodiodi: the airhorn must have some mirth mixed in it -- got a unexpected giggle over here (as it often does)
	11:38pm efd: @Rtintera Thanks! Hope it was worth it! :)
	11:41pm CC: Love these chord changes!!!...:)

	11:50pm CC: Da Rapper!!!...:)
	11:52pm Kat in Chicago: head bobbing to the isolation jam

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from September 30, 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!

September 30, 2020: live from Studio E(FD), it's the last show with new music until November!

	9:05pm javakid: and for the record I'm not talkin' Ira's show which in retrospect is where I should have been listening.
	9:05pm Stevel: In from the top! A rarity in the world of evening dog walking. Hallo UM, others!
	9:05pm Figgsrock: Have to say that the over the air feed is much lower now than it was for the Honky Tonk Radio Girl show.
	9:06pm medson: Hola efd, skeleton crew and everyone
	9:06pm Mike From Brooklyn: Good evening Evan F D
	9:06pm Stevel: Happy to see the Vic Maile Retrospective on the schedule!

	9:09pm prof.fuzz: greetings from the north dallas suburbs!
	9:09pm Scott Williams: EFD & Figgsrock, levels have been rock solid since the end of Johnny's Dance Band - thanks for the prehistoric Chet Bolins Evan!
	9:09pm Kat in Chicago: @Stevel yup!
	9:10pm javakid: @prof.fuzz down I-35 about 225 miles south.
	9:11pm Aitch: Seems Pam was pretty safe..
	9:11pm prof.fuzz: @javakid new braunfels?
	9:13pm javakid: eh, maybe I've got my mileage off a bit, NW Austin outer ring.
	9:13pm Terre T: @ efd--- sounding GREAT---so early psych furs? Were they one of the bands u played/first INTRODUCED to NY ?
	9:13pm taryninstereo: Memories of this band at Monty Hall!
	9:13pm Joe B: hey efd and everyone
	9:14pm prof.fuzz: @javakid no worries. we're about 200 miles into Austin from here.
	9:15pm efd: Terre T! I will take maybe a very small partial sliver of credit for that! Great show this afternoon!
	9:16pm efd: howdy prof. fuzz, Joe B. and taryn! Thanks for making those levels level, Scott W!
	9:16pm Kat in Chicago: I used to play that first Psych Furs album all the time, beginning to end

	9:19pm Elle Tor's Husband: Greta cut! Errr Great Cut!
	9:19pm Terre T: @ efd--UR TOO HUMBLE about yr provenance
	9:21pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, efd! Enjoying the show.
	9:21pm Terre T: @efd -oh + thanx!
	9:25pm Elle Tor's Husband: Used to print Eric Martin tour t-shirts. That's how old I am
	9:26pm Uncle Michael: They had t-shirts back then?
	9:27pm efd: hilarious, Mr. Elle Tor! Welcome Gaylord!
	9:27pm Elle Tor's Husband: @Uncle Michael made out of moss and twigs. Scratchy
	9:27pm Joe B: helen reddy and kim fowley!
	9:27pm Kat in Chicago: EFD with the Helen Reddy deep cuts
	9:27pm DC_Listener: you gotta play angie baby
	9:28pm Stevel: Aw, hadn't heard about Helen Reddy. I liked all of her hits. Joe B: This song?
	9:28pm Figgsrock: Oh great Helen Reddy choice EFD. Losing her and Mac Davis on the same day was like having a big chunk of my childhood snipped away in the space of a couple hours.
	9:29pm Elle Tor's Husband: Gotta be Waddie Wattel waddy ya say
	9:29pm efd: @DC_Listener, check back during Singles Going Steady Week!
	9:29pm Elle Tor's Husband: Wachtel
	9:30pm Joe B: @stevel - i stand corrected - fowley produced 6 songs on that album but apparently not that beatles cover
	9:30pm taryninstereo: Wow, have a look at all the DJs in the chat!
	9:31pm Stevel: Ah. I was going to say, that guy did some good in the world, every once and a while. Mac and Helen, both 78. [cue mysterious music]
	9:31pm Joe B: re angie baby - not sure what is weirder - the cartoon film made for the song, or the acting scenes for it on the carol burnett show
	9:31pm javakid: Mac Davis is also sad news. As a youngin' I didn't even know he was a singer/songwriter and knew him from North Dallas Forty (which is par excellence)
	9:32pm Joe B: fingers crossed efd does not play the three Reddy cuts I have slated ...
	9:32pm Stevel: DJ roulette
	9:33pm efd: this is my last one Joe, so you're safe!
	9:34pm Joe B: now I just have to worry about McGasko. he's understated yet crafty with his tributes when he does them
	9:34pm Uncle Michael: Someone needs to play "Summer of '71".
	9:34pm Chris: Too much cheese. Get serious.
	9:34pm Terre T: holy snap
	9:35pm Julie M: Hey, Joe B., I don't think when we lose a musical icon that we mind hearing those songs over again. RIP Helen Reddy.
	9:35pm Joe B: UM - guessing it won't be Gaylord!
	9:35pm Joe B: Julie, good point
	9:35pm Michael in Montclair: Hello EFD and everyone.
	9:36pm Bob: What is this bed music?!?!
	9:36pm Joe B: @Chop Scott - back at ya!
	9:36pm Uncle Michael: The word is out, Joe???
	9:37pm Joe B: a source close to the upcoming page ...
	9:37pm taryninstereo: Assisted living?
	9:37pm Uncle Michael: ahhhh
	9:39pm Joe B: Reddy was so huge from 1971-76 and then seemed to vanish rather quickly off the cultural radar. I don't recall oldies radio ever playing her much if at all.
	9:41pm Joe B: no angie baby was earlier by a few years
	9:42pm Elle Tor's Husband: Did they say " Play Angie Baby for me" and then chase you out on a balcony?
	9:43pm Joe B: more importantly Glen now plays with Liverpool every March at the Beatles convention!
	9:43pm DC_Listener: I had never heard that improper dancing song, loved it
	9:43pm Jett: @efd I strongly suggest you check out "One Way Ticket" by Helen Reddy clearly her best song!
	9:45pm Chop Scott: @Joe B.: Wolfgang & I say Big Cheers!
	9:45pm Scott Williams: Awww, thanks for that Evan!
	9:45pm Gaylord Fields: @UM @Joe B: Both Helen Reddy and Mac Davis had their first No. 1 hits in WHAT year?
	9:46pm ?: Sounds like Scott's back from Maine. Tough transition. Not sure how to tag him... Does it mean we can get back to coking (Julia of Tom&Julia)
	9:46pm Sam Pocker: popping over to chat with fellow listeners. hello fellow listeners, how's everything?
	9:46pm slugluv1313: oh no! Mac Davis too?!? thanks so much for the Helen Reddy tribute, EFD -- when i was a kid, i thought her songs could be incredibly corny, but damn, her voice! so gorgeous! and correct me if i am wrong, but didn't Helen Reddy and Mac Davis both have "Summer replacement" variety shows? i still crack up when i recall Mac Davis starting to sing, "Baby baby don't get hooked on me" . . . and amending his lyrics to, "Baby, don't get hoof and mouth disease" :)
	9:47pm Scott Williams: Hi Julia! I know you meant "cooking", and YES PLEASE! The skeleton crew sings your culinary praises constantly
	9:47pm Uncle Michael: Gaylord, I rest my case. (ducking)
	9:48pm Figgsrock: @gaylord 1972?
	9:48pm Kat in Chicago: I think you're right about the summer replacement shows, slugluv. Variety shows used to be such a big thing...
	9:49pm Joe B: don't recall reddy's tv show but the mac davis show was on for several years. if it was a replacement show, it lasted quite a while IIRC
	9:49pm slugluv1313: @ Joe B -- i remember Angie Baby on The Carol Burnett Show! strange indeed!
	9:49pm Julia (Tom&Julia): Scott, no comment — English is my second language, plus Maine withdrawal, and this board activity is so intimidating. But I so miss folding T-shirts.
	9:49pm Gaylord Fields: @UM: You'll get your say, Mr. Burger, and then I will win. @Figgsrock: Yup, 1972!!!
	9:50pm Uncle Michael: Which of the two had Waylon Flowers & Madam on first?
	9:50pm Joe B: @slugluv - yeah that clip has always stayed with me. weird. me and my sister talked about it for years
	9:50pm efd: hi Sam, Julia, Jett, Michael in Montclair, Julie, and did I say hi to Stevel yet??
	9:50pm Figgsrock: @gaylord I’ll admit that I had that year in mind after writing her obit for my day job last night because of “I Am Woman.”
	9:51pm Uncle Michael: Gaylord, that (presumed) pop culture reference sailed right over my head!
	9:51pm Kat in Chicago: Looked it up, Joe B, you're right about the Mac Davis show. Ran for a couple of years. Helen Reddy's was only 8 episodes.
	9:52pm Gaylord Fields: UM: Burger, as in Hamilton.
	9:52pm Joe B: I remember Reddy being on everyone else's show, literally every other one, but forgot she had a show
	9:52pm Uncle Michael: Oy. I'm so embarrassed.
	9:52pm slugluv1313: @ Kat in Chicago -- right? Manhattan Transfer had a Summer show too -- and where i was growing up, not much to do except watch TV
	9:52pm Joe B: alright hamilton! oops, wrong decade
	9:52pm Stevel: HI efd! If not, this was a good time.
	9:52pm Figgsrock: Helen also was one of the hoss for The Midnight Special for a couple years too. She had a rather diverse resume for an early 70s pop star.
	9:53pm Mat: Great to hear our local lads Vintage Crop on your show
	9:53pm prof.fuzz: Ha! I just clicked the bandcamp link for vintage crop. digging it!
	9:53pm Joe B: @figgsrock - yes! great clip on the web now of her singing to love somebody with the bee gees
	9:54pm javakid: 10 second delay may need to be instituted EFD
	9:54pm Gaylord Fields: Shields and frickin' Yarnell were given a show back then, and so were the Starland Vocal Band.
	9:54pm slugluv1313: @ Joe B. -- ah, thanks! yeah, not sure -- maybe Mac Davis' show started out as a Summer show, then was picked up to be on during the "regular" Fall through Spring season??
	9:54pm ultradamno: Yeah, I was rather liking the Fall-alike sound of it, what was wrong?
	9:54pm John from NP: Whoa mama!
	9:55pm Gaylord Fields: @ultradamno: Coupla Bozo No-nos slipped through.
	9:55pm patrick321: Mac Davis was pretty good in North Dallas Forty.
	9:55pm efd: @Mat sorry to cut it short! I've played other tunes of theirs where they didn't have such potty mouths.
	9:55pm slugluv1313: @Kat in Chicago -- thanks for looking that up!
	9:55pm ultradamno: Ah, I see.
	9:55pm Mike From Brooklyn: @Gaylord - Starland Vocal Band too???!!!! I'm guessing theirs was in the afternoon :-p
	9:55pm Kat in Chicago: @Mike LOL
	9:56pm Gaylord Fields: @Mike From Brooklyn: Haha! It was on network TV, not channel J/35!
	9:56pm slugluv1313: @ Gaylord -- omg YES! and The Hudson Brothers too, iirc??
	9:57pm Stevel: Looking for a Helen Reddy meets the Hollywood Vampires link. Her manager was a genius, taking the squeaky-clean shine off of her image.
	9:57pm Uncle Michael: razzle dazzle!
	9:57pm patrick321: @Ultradamno the Fall sounding thing was also working for me
	9:57pm Mike From Brooklyn: @Gaylord (and @Kat) I recall watching many variety shows back then, but I missed out on the Starland Vocal Band one.
	9:58pm taryninstereo: I want to shout out the great WFMU playlist on Spotify that has the band with the word bleeps on it.
	9:58pm Joe B: don't forget the variety show format limped into 1980 - barely - with pink lady and jeff
	9:58pm Gaylord Fields: @slugluv1313: Yep! And Ken Berry, and Ben Vereen (two separate shows, mind you)! I guess other kids in the 1970s went out to play on summer nights. Their loss.
	10:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Haha, Gaylord. Next, you'll be telling us Cher won an Oscar and Sonny was elected to Congress.
	10:02pm slugluv1313: @ Gaylord -- ha ha! right? or at least they had some cool places to go, cool stuff to do :) and i was really really hoping that my brain was messing with me, but apparently not: "After appearing as guests on the Sonny & Cher show in early 1974, a producer for CBS was impressed by the brothers' stage presence and offered them their own variety hour on the network for the summer slot.[6] The Hudson Brothers Show[7] aired Wednesday nights on CBS from July 31, 1974 to August 28, 1974.[8] The show was so successful that CBS devised The Hudson Brothers Razzle Dazzle Show, which aired on Saturday mornings, from September 7, 1974 to August 30, 1975, in a half-hour format.[8] The group's television exposure accrued the group a heightened level of fame, and resulted in the brothers becoming teen idols."
	10:02pm Kat in Chicago: At some point I largely deserted prime time TV in favor of hiding in my room with books and radio. So I mostly missed out on the later years of the variety show.
	10:03pm Gaylord Fields: @Ken From Hyde Park: Riiight — and their child that they paraded around in the frilly dresses is actually a dude.
	10:03pm Joe B: was always great when the Hudsons were on hollywood squares, and they had all three crammed into the lower right square
	10:03pm Uncle Michael: Sleaford-a-like!
	10:04pm TVP: IIRC, that Starland Vocal Band show was one of David Letterman's first TV gigs.
	10:04pm Mat: You can't play tracks like that Vintage Crop on radio in the US? Even at that hour?
	10:04pm Gaylord Fields: (Whew! It was hard constructing that joke without misgendering or deadnaming Chaz.)
	10:04pm Joe B: we can't afford to find out
	10:05pm slugluv1313: @ Kat in Chicago -- yup! same here! spent a lot of time in my room, with records, radio, books -- and STILL somehow had time on my hands to watch these shows (i grew up in what could be called "the sticks") . . . by the time i heard "Bored Teenagers," i was sooooo able to relate :)
	10:05pm prof.fuzz: oh hey! I recognize this one... thanks EFD!
	10:05pm ultradamno: @Mat You could put it on a cable TV show at this hour but not radio. Go figure.
	10:05pm efd: ha, yr welcome prof.!
	10:06pm Gaylord Fields: @Mat: Our station's "safe harbor" for playing words with certain profanities is 11pm– 6am.
	10:06pm efd: @Mat it was before 10pm, but even after 10 it's still too much of a risk as Joe B. says. One FCC complaint/fine and it could be a huge financial hit for the station.
	10:06pm ultradamno: This (Love Canal) could be one of those "young people don't know what this means" memes
	10:06pm Elle Tor's Husband: I knew I recognized that dread bass line - the great Greta Flipper... Err Great Flipper!!! RIP Will Shatter
	10:07pm prof.fuzz: If Augie Meyers were sitting in with Low covering Flipper... Or something like that.
	10:09pm prof.fuzz: @ultradamno my son (and PF63 drummer) is taking a class on environmental health in college this semester and Love Canal is one of the case studies. he's gonna drop that version into his online discussion group.
	10:10pm Uncle Michael: We need a third "furs" band to complete a trifecta.
	10:10pm Elle Tor's Husband: @prof.fuzz exactly! This one is a little cleaner cause nobody kicked in the 4/12
	10:10pm efd: ha! Didn't even think of that UM!
	10:11pm Gaylord Fields: @ultradamno: Actual headline from that incident — "Hooker Sued in Love Canal Damage"! Around 30 years ago, a friend who grew up nearby the site in WNY took me ona drive through Love Canal, and it was completely desolate, except for one holdout guy flying an American flag from his porch.
	10:11pm ultradamno: Handsome Furs?
	10:13pm ultradamno: @gaylord Did you get a pic. Actually, it might ruin the mental image that just created.
	10:13pm Joe B: wow throwback song here!
	10:13pm prof.fuzz: @Elle Tor's Husband We set out to cover Flipper but not just copy Flipper. We cleaned up the guitar, cranked the reverb, and let the organ do the heavy lifting. We have a whole set of Flipper covers that we play on occasion. Will probably do a Twitch livesteam at Halloween and do those tunes again. I was a Flipper fanatic in high school...
	10:14pm ultradamno: But those darn chemical spilling hookers!
	10:14pm Elle Tor's Husband: I was doing security at Flippers first show (79'?) I was back stage and they all had wigs on and threw them off as they roared to life on stage. They all looked like concentration survivors. At the California Hall in the basement club I saw 300 people pogoing ( yes that) to a 20 minute rendition of "Superfreak" good times
	10:14pm efd: @Joe hadn't thought of it in years but something in the Mango Furs song prompted a memory! Luckily I have the CD at home!
	10:15pm prof.fuzz: @ultradamno Sounds like a sequel waiting to be written! Love Canal Hookers
	10:15pm RobinSays: I love this Lost Kids song! Many thanx for playing it...
	10:15pm prof.fuzz: @Elle Tor's Husband AWESOME!
	10:15pm Joe B: wow. will never forget their performance on Terre's show then going to see them at brownie's afterwards. or the night before maybe. or both?
	10:16pm ultradamno: Live audio of a Flipper show I attended (near the end of the line for Will, as I recall. We met him briefly, he was quite friendly, if entirely altered) www.youtube.com...
	10:16pm efd: I think it was the same night! Yeah, I was thinking the same thing!
	10:17pm Gaylord Fields: @ultradamno: We were already intruding, and to be honest, I wasn't exactly eager to get out of the car or even roll down my window. I think I did snap one thru the window.
	10:18pm prof.fuzz: Thanks for the link @ultradamno We're doing a livestream with Jean Caffeine on Saturday. She used to be Will's roommate.
	10:18pm Elle Tor's Husband: @prof fuzz I was in a band with Bruce Loose in between his gigs with Flipper ( 85' - 86' ). Blurry
	10:19pm prof.fuzz: @Elle Tor's Husband Super cool.
	10:21pm Joe B: nice, loved duncan and all of his band members!
	10:22pm prof.fuzz: Fletch reference?
	10:22pm Stevel: ultradamno: Did you make the recording? Very cool to hear the Bid Black a few weeks ago. I'll definitely listen to the Flipper. Never got the chance to see them. Once or twice, punks I knew drove to Chicago from Madison to see them (or not, depending on numerous variables) . I heard it was a scene not for the weak.
	10:24pm ultradamno: @steve I did not. That one may have been by a friend of mine. I have a DOA tape from the Jockey too. The Big Black was a board recording.
	10:26pm spodiodi: greetings efd and company
	10:30pm ultradamno: He produced the gold standard Screamin' Blue Messiahs' release Good & Gone
	10:30pm Joe B: gotta start over!
	10:31pm slugluv1313: @Elle Tor's Husband -- AMAZING! only got to see FLIPPER once -- but it may have been their first gig in NYC? CBGB, with Bad Posture opening . . . unbelievable experience and yes, DEFINITELY not for the weak!
	10:33pm mr_donutsu: Ego and Dave in the house!!!
	10:34pm mariano: Hey efd, Crew, and FMU stalwarts.
	10:35pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Happy slightly belated birthday Evan!
	10:37pm mariano: Oh yeah, birthday? Happy birthday efd!
	10:38pm Julie M: I liked the White Hills track. And did you just make another masterful mix? Birthday power!
	10:38pm slugluv1313: HELLOOOOOOO TERRE T.!!!!!! if you are still here :) (yeah still working on a lot of boring stuff away from comments)
	10:39pm slugluv1313: Happy Birthday, EFD!
	10:39pm efd: @ultradamno I'm recording an interview with Chris Thompson from the Messiahs on Friday!
	10:39pm spodiodi: HPY BDY, EFD
	10:40pm efd: thanks for the birthday greetings Todd and all, that's nice to see. Twas a big one this year.
	10:40pm Elle Tor's Husband: @slugluv 1313 I was lucky to work at The Temple back then and Flipper was the practically House Band. So many great SF bands from back then The Lewd, Murder, Code Of Honor, The Avengers ( this is a Shout- Out from and old punk so please bear with me please it's a good memory exercise) when was I? Oh ya... Sleepers, Tuxedo Moon, The Offs, Dead Kennedys, The Mutants, ( what's that nurse? It's time for my bath and apple sauce?) gotta go...
	10:40pm CC: Can't wait till the next debate with the clown who won't shut up!!!...:)
	10:41pm slugluv1313: oooooo more ACR -- so cool to hear them again!
	10:42pm ultradamno: @efd Awesome! Such a great live band. Some ephemera from when I saw them: twitter.com... twitter.com...
	10:42pm slugluv1313: @ CC -- aghhhhhh i only watched in tiny doses but i am STILL feeling traumatized!
	10:44pm CC: I've been away awhile but that's just the first thing that popped into my mind to share with you all...cheerz!!!...:)
	10:44pm ultradamno: @ETH Love all that stuff. The Subterranean catalog was an early education for me.
	10:45pm prof.fuzz: So much great music coming out of SF in the late 70s and early 80s. I fully intended to leave Houston for SF as soon as I finished high school, but alas...
	10:47pm Handy Haversack: I'm a little distracted by caregiving and baseball tonight, but happy bday, efd! A Certain Ratio was completely new to me until this week. Nice WFMU synergy going. Hey, pals!
	10:47pm mariano: Handy!
	10:48pm Blues Mandinga: Ea!
	10:48pm Joe B: great version!
	10:49pm Handy Haversack: Mariano!
	10:49pm prof.fuzz: digging this a lot.
	10:49pm Mat: Loving this. It just shows how disco Kiss were
	10:50pm DouglasInDallas: This queen of japan is fan-funkin-tastic!
	10:50pm Chop Scott: I'm still hearing Paul Stanley!
	10:50pm Elle Tor's Husband: @ultradamno Hell ya Subterranean was my go to label back then. 415 Records with Howie Klein. Alternative Tentacles. SF was a small label town as far as Punk but what we lacked in reach we made up with punch
	10:51pm slugluv1313: hiya Handy! A Certain Ratio is awesome -- dig deeper and ENJOY!
	10:53pm slugluv1313: hi mariano!
	10:55pm CC: With particularly well constructed bell curves you can discover definite deviations from the norm!!!...:)
	10:57pm Handy Haversack: Nice, thanks, slugluv!
	10:59pm slugluv1313: @ Elle Tor's Husband -- amazing! never got out to SF, but got a buncha the records, which i still cherish (via mail order -- remember that? yup i am an old punk too!) Tuxedomoon came to NYC in . . . 1981? 1982? i was in awe, totally mesmerized
	11:00pm slugluv1313: @ Handy -- they were a fave of mine when i was still in college, late 1970s/early 1980s -- glad to see they are still making cool music!
	11:01pm prof.fuzz: Thank you! Appreciate the support EFD!
	11:02pm CC: Just travel to Florida they let you do everything down there!!!...:)
	11:04pm mariano: What's up, slugluv!
	11:04pm ultradamno: @slug This show? tuxedomoonarchives.bandcamp.com...
	11:05pm Elle Tor's Husband: Here are a few rough practice studio recordings of The Weasels which was the Post-Flipper stuff I did with Bruce in 85' - 86'. Working out some funky funky stuff. William Burgess on Guitar, Bruce Loose on Bass and shitty comments and me on drums.Its too bad listening back I thought we had the kernal of something tuff https://www.dropbox.com/s/lb1en0ab7p4w47i/25%20East%20Bay%20Jam.mp3?dl=0 Frightwig cover - https://www.dropbox.com/s/lkkfk3evwdq8o23/26%20Kiss%20Before%20The%20Kill.mp3?dl=0
	11:06pm ultradamno: ^^Blaine's notes on that page is worth reading, all those Tux Archive releases come with some interesting info
	11:07pm ultradamno: ...or ARE worth reading.
	11:10pm ultradamno: Also, speaking of SF and Bandcamp, Chrome released an inexpensive remix of In A Dream recently chromemusic.bandcamp.com...
	11:10pm slugluv1313: @ ultradamno -- oh, i WISH! but this was later, in a larger venue (like Irving Plaza, but i do not think it was there) -- i was already out of college, and working in Manhattan -- one of the students where i worked was from SF, turned out she was friends with them and had also been at the show
	11:11pm pgalub: Excellent segue efd! ;)
	11:12pm slugluv1313: @ Elle Tor's Husband -- oh yes FRIGHTWIG! loved them, they played Maxwell's here in Hoboken (early 80s)
	11:12pm efd: oh that is high praise coming from you, Pete! Thanks!
	11:13pm CC: Sometimes I try to remember what the worst thing I ever felt was???...:)
	11:13pm swivs: dBs! Where in the world where in the world you been?
	11:17pm Alex of Chicago: This is my new jam.
	11:18pm CC: I think it was when I visited with my real father after years and years and we sat and talked over a beer and he said he felt trapped and it was all because of money?!?...:)
	11:20pm Joe B: another supergroup!
	11:21pm efd: oh, good point Joe! Now I can pretend I deliberately bookended the set with supergroups!
	11:22pm CC: This is sooo profound!!!...:)
	11:22pm Stevel: Take the win!
	11:25pm CC: People just keep dying!!!...:/
	11:27pm Joe B: MORE AIRHORN
	11:29pm Stevel: efd sounds winded after that healthy round of airhorn.
	11:29pm Gaylord Fields: Why do I love that airhorn so much? That's right — it's because I think and I feel.
	11:31pm efd: it's tough keeping up with the airhorn!
	11:31pm CeeDub: @EFD Is the MAN!
	11:32pm CC: Yes..!.. The Thinker and the Do'er... no allowance for the other!!!!...:)
	11:34pm Rtintera: Great show tonight. I was finally able to stay awake long enough to catch it all. Thanks EFD
	11:36pm CC: The reason most people stay awake is because they might not want to miss something!!!...:)
	11:37pm spodiodi: the airhorn must have some mirth mixed in it -- got a unexpected giggle over here (as it often does)
	11:38pm efd: @Rtintera Thanks! Hope it was worth it! :)
	11:41pm CC: Love these chord changes!!!...:)
	11:42pm Mike From Brooklyn: @CC - Yes. I also like me some Joe Pernice
	11:42pm Stevel: Very nice.
