Playlist for The Evan "Funk" Davies Show - August 21, 2007

Tuesdays 11pm - 2am on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

Starting with the 70s -- it could be a classic (or obscure) punk rocker, a forgotten disco diva, a long-unheard hit record, or none of these. What happens next depends on what's in the WFMU new bin and whether I remember my records from home. Tune in and find out! You'll even hear a live band once in a while.

Listener comments!

Great show tonight, I would like to make some more running comments but I am doing homework.

Stumped by Steel on All Music unless they are listed under 80s.

Did you know that Michael Cera's character in Superbad (the cute one, not the tubby one) is also named Evan?

p.s. vampire weekend are a snooze. go back to Columbia. Rich Kids.

mmmm..... White Castle!

Wed. 8/22/07 1:39am From: Tony B!

I was watching the Giants blow their 1-0 ninth inning lead (against the Cubs) with the TV sound off and FMU rocking while Pink Reason's "By A Thread" was playing. And the Giants are no longer hanging by that, or any, thread tonight.

EitN is right up there next to "Reverb" on my Guilty Pleasures list.

Wed. 8/22/07 2:56am From: efd

Nice to see the West Coast contingent checking in!
Tony: I heard about that Cubs comeback on my way home -- 5 runs in the top of the 9th = brutal.
Jessica -- thanks for the comment on Evans in the News! Around 1:30 I realized I'd completely forgotten about it, and didn't want to try to squeeze it in so I decided to let it go for this week. But look for a triumphant EitN return next Tuesday night!
