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.

Listener comments!

  11:07pm
annabelle clark:

  11:09pm
Sybil:

Missed you last week. Although Todd did a great job.

I needed this song!
  11:11pm
efd:

thanks Sybil, thanks Annabelle! I'm glad to be back (and grateful to Todd for the last-minute fill-in last week).
  11:14pm
annabelle clark:

like sybil said you were missed..i guess you didn't feel well last week,,,btw efd what was the worst gift that you ever got,,hmm???
  11:19pm
annabelle c.:

evan have you got any special holiday plans?
  11:20pm
efd:

Annabelle, in the words of Rosanne Rosannadanna: you ask a lot of questions!
  11:25pm
Sybil:

I am in love with tonight's show. That is all.
  11:25pm
annabelle clark:

evan forgive me for being soo nosey,,,i'm sorry efd,, ohhhhhhh yaaaaaahhhhhh tee set
  11:32pm
Sybil:

Bullet wound???
  11:39pm
efd:

You'll have to listen to the very beginning of Todd's fill-in from last week.

p.s. I'm fine.
  11:41pm
C:

he really scared me for a second there. glad all's well!
  11:44pm
hazeljane:

the music is GREAT
  11:45pm
annabelle c.:

evan i'm really glad that your ok this week,,,& i'm still sorry for being nosey,,,
  11:47pm
efd:

thanks Hazeljane, thanks Annabelle.

C, I can see how that would have caused some alarm... especially for people who either aren't in NY or don't follow football (or both)
  11:50pm
Sybil:

The bullet-football connection is known even to this complete football non-follower. (I try very hard not to know anything about football, but it's more difficult than you might think.)
  11:50pm
C:

Haha. No, it was actually the part where he said something like "don't blame Tom for joking about Evan's absence, he didn't know what happened." the guy really sold it.
  11:52pm
Sybil:

OK, now I've got to go listen to it. Well, not *now*, but later.

Will it only make sense if I also listen to the last few minutes of Tom's show? (I must have missed this - dang!)
  11:57pm
Pete:

Even:

Listener Pete here. Hope all is well with you. If possible, requesting that you play the song "Brown Eyes" by Gary Charlson off the Numero Titan records comp.

Thanks!!
  11:59pm
annabelle/catlin:

well evan i'm outa here,,thank you for putting up with me,,,rest easy,,see u next week--g'nite =)=)=) peace & love
  12:04am
efd:

goodnight Annabelle!
Hello Pete! I am going to have to go in to the comments system and correct your misspelling of my name... but I do have that Titan comp here in the studio, so the odds of your request getting played are good. :)
  12:07am
efd:

Sybil, yes, ideally the whole thing works best if you hear the tail end of Tom's show first... C, yes, I see your point - Todd did a good job of sounding pretty grave (for a change!).
  12:13am
wendy:

what is the no. again? love the show
  12:22am
annabelle c.:

i'm sorry evan,but i was just wonderin would you consider me as one of your fave comenters?? i want to know,,,thank you
  12:22am
randy in NC:

efd, while you're at it with Brown Eyes, could I add Big Brown Eyes to the list? Or Amplifier?
  12:24am
C:

i don't know if this means anything to you, but you're one of my favorite commenters, annabelle.
  12:27am
efd:

and I agree with C.
  12:30am
Laurie:

What did we do wrong? Did we do something to anger you, Evan, and that's why you're playing Ace Frehley?
  12:30am
Laurie:

Was it because that one person spelled your name wrong or something?
  12:33am
efd:

Laurie, if I were mad at you(se), I would have played Peter Criss.
  12:44am
MARK:

Do you like Nitecaps' GO TO THE LINE?
Wounded Bird Records just reissued it. They also did Polyrock and Bonnie Hayes. Bonnie Hayes is cool, too.
  12:45am
randy in NC:

efd, when you get a chance sometime, check out Tramp by the band Royal Purple. Joe B. played it today, man what a thing with a hook.
  12:48am
efd:

Randy, I actually played that a few weeks ago! (Along with the original version by BTO!)

HI MARK! That's cool about the Nitecaps reissue, I'll have to keep an eye out.
  12:50am
randy in NC:

Oh yes I remember that now. It's late...
  12:51am
efd:

no worries, Randy... I don't expect everyone to mentally catalog all my shows. :)
  12:54am
john:

Damn, that Eagles of Death Metal song was good...even if it was a piss-take...I may need to reappraise.
  12:54am
Sybil:

Hearing this makes me feel unreasonably nostalgic.
  12:56am
C:

did they really name this album "theme from growing pains"? is that the most sought after theme that's going to sell the album?
  12:57am
efd:

well it certainly isn't the theme from "My Sister Sam."

although there is something Murphy Brown-related on there, you'd think that would be the hook.
  12:59am
john:

Evan, play some Sexual Objects if WFMU has it...Merrie England is a great single...
  1:00am
Joe:

Hi, Evan, just stopping in because that last track destroyed what's left of my sanity. Greatest American Hero indeed.

Good show, carry on.
  1:02am
?:

awesome
  1:06am
john:

RIP Wursthaus
  1:06am
C:

that great restaurant is gone, unfortunately
  1:12am
efd:

i figured as much... if Out Of Town news can't make it I don't have much hope for anything else in Harvard Square.
  1:15am
C:

that newstand in the middle of the square? how is that possible?
  1:16am
john:

that's closing...they sold in '94 to Hudson...and now Hudson's leaving...
  1:18am
efd:

John is correct, unfortunately. I think Nini's Corner is still there, at least?
  1:18am
john:

yessir it is
  1:19am
C:

yikes. next you're going to tell me that the weirdos have been moved out of the pit by the t stop
  1:20am
john:

they will never leave...like cockroaches, they'll be there after the bomb hits
  1:23am
randy in NC:

More hook
  1:30am
Laurie:

PRIDE OF MIAMI.
  1:55am
M Otis Beard:

Oh, this is fantastic. I'm lying in bed in a big rig at a truck stop in Salina, Kansas... and I'm listening to WFMU.
  3:59pm
Chris:

Thanks for playing Dogmatics - Gimme the Shakes! I love that song. I've always liked the 7" version better than the lp version.
