Well hello...first time I've been here to your show Evan!

Van in Dallas:

I'm here because the World Series game 6 was scrubbed for today, I'm sure you know :)
  9:08pm
efd:

got you covered, gw!

Welcome, Van. This will be a very unconventional show in terms of both content and presentation - hope you enjoy!
  9:08pm
efd:

Yes, that's good for me - I can watch tomorrow night!
  9:09pm

  9:14pm
calzone!:

Splodgenous Abounds!
  9:17pm
Therese:

EFD! This Selecter track has always been one of my favorites!!!
  9:17pm
Van in Dallas:

I would request Austra, but I doubt they have any 7" releases...besides, if they DID, only Julie would have them anyway. I could still ask for some KaTe or Toyah though ;)
  9:19pm
break dancing fool:

EFD is my favorite Singles Going Steady show. Super Pro.
  9:19pm
calzone!:

Spizz! Yippee!
  9:21pm
tony:

I voted for 1978. '78 was the year that my taste in music really matured. I was 13. This Year's Model, Parallel Lines, Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo!, & More Songs About Buildings and Food were a few of the biggies. Great year!
  9:25pm
calzone!:

Delta5, Orange Juice, Tenpole Tudor!
  9:27pm
ggggg:

Great show. Flowers? Manicured Noise?
  9:28pm
JustSheaNo:

Pogo til you puke, kids. This is awesome EFD
  9:29pm
Adam in Portland:

THIS is what democracy sounds like.
  9:31pm
Marmalade kitty:

is it right to term new wave punk as "post punk"? since the origins of punk movement, punk remains valid relevant forth coming.. ALIVE!
  9:32pm
Jack McGuire:

Request Pls: "Faith" or "Freetime" by Manicured Noise.
  9:33pm
Van in Dallas:

Bet you don't have any Nina Hagen singles handy...
  9:33pm
efd:

whoa, TWO Manicured Noise requests?! My listeners are sophisticated!
  9:34pm
efd:

M. Kitty, to me "post-punk" and "new wave" are fairly distinct genres, but I also try not to get too hung up on those labels.

Van in D - you're correct!
  9:34pm
calzone!:

I'm hearing some positive noise tonight! Will I hear any Positive Noise tonight?
  9:35pm
jeff-m:

tearing it up
  9:36pm
SF Spike:

Now here's a blast from my past! Thanks for busting out The Sports.
  9:36pm
Marmalade kitty:

my contention: punk always present Its not over..! post punk useless term
  9:36pm
Jack McGuire:

When they hand out prizes for taste...
  9:36pm
JMD:

Who does? We does! Thanks EFD!
  9:38pm
Stevel:

My ears have the hiccups! Power through!
  9:38pm
Marmalade kitty:

It just irritates slightly, usually music journalists attempts to pigeon hole and pin down everything
  9:38pm
gw:

lene lovitch ,"home"
  9:38pm
calzone!:

Great show EFD! I feel like a 19yr old again....kinda sorta! Excelsior!
  9:38pm

  9:39pm
bfrank:

rock up! Wig out!
  9:39pm
Stevel:

Actually, my cheap-ass speaker was cutting out in a very entertaining way. Carry on!
  9:40pm
Adam in Portland:

I hereby dub all styles of music "Mackenzie."
  9:41pm
Julie:

I wanna hear one of those songs from that band with the skinny ties and bleached hair
  9:42pm
Jim Devoid:

Love the Phil Lynott song!
  9:42pm
efd:

Folks, please consider making a pledge using the box at the top left of the page! This is my last show during our fundraiser and it would be great to help out WFMU by hitting my goal. Our commercial tenant is moving out of our building, leaving an $80k+ gap in our budget so we can really use your help! And thanks to all of you who have pledged already, it's greatly appreciated!
  9:42pm
Adam in Portland:

EFD, I was wondering if we would hear some Phil Lynott tonight. You're mint! Still sealed! Never been played!
  9:43pm
Stevel:

Adam: Mackenzie is dead. These days I'm really into Mackenzie.
  9:44pm
efd:

M. KItty, I understand your frustration which is why I try to shy away from mentioning genres when possible. Sometimes, though, it's necessary to use that kind of shorthand to give folks a quick idea of what's going on.
  9:45pm
Kate:

Yahoo! 70s! Miss Lonelyhearts, awesome novella. Word on the street is Errol Morris likes it too.
  9:45pm
Stevel:

Do you not LOVE this show? Especially tonight?

Make the line move! Under $600 to make the efd goal. ("Team" on break)

TEAM!!
  9:45pm
SF Spike:

Fantastic show, kinda heavy on the Mackenzie tho
  9:45pm
Marmalade kitty:

  9:46pm
wg:

wreckless , whole wide
  9:48pm
Van in Dallas:

Wow. Seriously...you have NEVER played neither Kate Bush NOR Toyah? Out of the billions of artists you have played? Or did my eyes deceive me...guess I know what not to ask for here though ;)
  9:49pm
Holly in NC:

Hi Evan & veeryone -
Yay!
Tubeway Army? Suburban Lawns? Adam & the Ants?
Virgin Prunes? Chameleons UK? Wire?
And I totally second any/all Robyn H/Soft Boys
@Julie - now I have to catch up with your Black Tape.. show, too!
  9:49pm
Julie:

actually the odd Toyah track would work well on EFD's show..I guess I should've left HIM some singles
  9:50pm
Julie:

@Holly! Yeah it was a good one.. we were recording last week during Evan's show. So yay I got to see Evan!
  9:50pm
Julie:

oooh how about Adam & The Ants
  9:50pm
Stevel:

Human Sexual Response! VERY Mackenzie!

  9:51pm
paulieD:

  9:52pm
Van in Dallas:

Hi Julie! Yes, the odd Toyah track would work great here tonight, given the sounds and timeframe :)
  9:52pm
ggggg:

  9:52pm
calzone!:

  9:54pm
slugluv1313:

  9:55pm
Holly in NC:

Have to go walk the dog I'm caring for - evan, please don't play anything TOOO awesome in the next 15 or so minutes!!
  9:55pm
Van in Dallas:

When efd says "you guys" he means everyone not named "Van in Dallas" ;)
  9:56pm
Julie:

Van's name isn't actually Van, it's his location
  9:56pm
Julie:

@Holly WALK FAST
  9:56pm
Stevel:

  9:56pm
Jack McGuire:

  9:57pm
Van in Dallas:

  9:57pm
Holly-Cared-For Dog:

STOP YANKING THAT THING!!!!!! I SMELL SOMETHING FASCINATING RIGHT HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  9:57pm
PB:

I think it may have been 83 (and therefore a little out of the time frame) but would love to hear Tell Me When It's Over by the Dream Syndicate.
  9:57pm
Adam in Portland:

I threw some money in the tattered guitar case as well, and the sound of it hitting the felt had me feeling like Albert Finney.
  9:58pm
slugluv1313:

how about Honey Bane's "Guilty"? Crass' "Big A Little A"? Fad Gadget's "Back to Nature" (only asking b/c it *already* sounds like Mr. EFD has raided my ree-cord collection :) )
  9:58pm
Danne D:

Hi guys :) Thanks for an AWEsome show :)

Request for a Superfunk '75 choice next year ;)
  9:58pm
Julie:

The best vans are those down by the river
  9:58pm
Danne D:

I have a request....


....fill up that meter at the top of Evan's page peoples! C'mon!
  9:59pm
JustSheaNo:

Evan: any chance I will hear some Wire tonight? Also, drinks after rec fair on Saturday?
  10:00pm
Adam in Portland:

How about VOID? I'm like that,...
  10:00pm
Jim Allen:

Wow, after my initial shock upon hearing some of these songs all in the same show, I'm reminded that you're one of the people who turned on to them to begin with, back in the NYU days! Bravo!
  10:00pm
slugluv1313:

@ Julie -- where Matt Foley, Motivational Speaker lives! :)
  10:00pm
Danne D:

I did the impossible today - I found a band on youtube of some repute (at least enough that Nardwuar and a message board commenter knew who they were but I couldn't find them on the accuplaylist). They actually fit the time frame too - a band called Government. (sorta like Canada's answer to Devo in some ways)
  10:01pm
PB:

Bad Brains?
  10:01pm
efd:

JustSheaNo - yes to Wire, not sure about Saturday though,.
  10:01pm
Jack McGuire:

What WAWA is Kirk Brandon working in now?
  10:02pm
efd:

Jack, that made me LOL by myself in the studio.
  10:03pm
Danne D:

Hooray for the Palm Pre shoutcast radio app that is letting me hear the stream since it keeps crapping out at the coffee shop :)
  10:03pm
Jack McGuire:

We aim to please.
  10:04pm
Danne D:

so with that I'll officially request Evan play something by Government. A request that will likely go unfulfilled (but would fulfill the night's Canadian content) :)
  10:05pm
JustSheaNo:

Yay Wire. Boo no drinks, but I'm sure we'll see you around sooner or later.
  10:05pm
PB:

Minor Threat?
  10:05pm
Wikky Pedia:

In January 2008, Brandon sued GlaxoSmithKline UK over personal injuries as a result of taking the anti-depressant drug Seroxat.[5] Earlier last year, Brandon was awarded the full extent of his claims.

In August 2009, Brandon had a series of heart attacks which led him to have an eight hour operation at the Royal Sussex County Hospital, Brighton, East Sussex where his aortic valve was replaced with a pig's valve.

  10:09pm
john:

Great show, Evan! Someone put this 999 song on a mix tape for me in the spring of (yikes) 1980.
  10:09pm
Holly in NC:

Pulsallama?

Y'know, Steve1, re doth rock, Bauhaus' covers of Third Uncle &/or Telegtam Sam would fit right in - actuallly, was Terror Couple Kills Colonel a 7in? That's my fave
  10:09pm
Jack McGuire:

Theatre of Scrapple?

Marmalade kitty:

  10:17pm
Roberto:

Ugh. Every time an FMU DJ says "dot oh are gee" I die a little inside.
  10:17pm
Danne D:

Volunteering for FMU is fun and fulfilling - Scott is a great volunteer wrangler. Good volunteers (ya know like the kind that work and are on time and stuff) are greatly honored and appreciated :)

Alas, I can't volunteer for the Record Fair given it's timing :( I'm hoping that I can break free for the first couple of hours on Saturday before heading down to work and that'll be a stretch :(
  10:17pm
Danne D:

Why is it always Mayhem? It's never Octoberhem or Augusthem.
  10:17pm
calzone!:

I've been listening to EFD since NYU days and it's still FUN!
  10:18pm
Holly in NC:

New Math! The original We Walk Among You!
Very halloweeny!

And Rhino.com just informedd me that the Smith Complete box is shipping now. Some of those those Smith singles were pretty amazing...just saying
  10:19pm
Danne D:

@calzone! heh - love your pizza take. Actually was listening to Ted Leo's Sons of Cain and pondered it as an accidental Herman Cain theme song :)
  10:19pm
calzone!:

Whoosh! Shoes flashback!
  10:20pm
Danne D:

welcome Van :) voting or no Evan always puts on a fabulous show :)
  10:20pm
Holly in NC:

omeone tole my econd "s". o orry.
  10:20pm
John L:

How about some Lurkers, the Records, Television Personalities, the Individuals ? But everything your playing is outstanding.
  10:21pm
Danne D:

@Roberto I always liked the way Sarge said .ARRG :)
  10:22pm
calzone!:

Thx for the OJ! Viva le Postcard!

  10:23pm
Holly in NC:

If HSR not forthcoming, perhaps Real Kids? Lyres? Evan, you totally need to rep Boston !
  10:24pm
John L:

That should have been everything YOU'RE playing is outstanding.
  10:25pm
Danne D:

Have you explored the other wonderful offerings on FMU Van? :) Tons of awesome and about 10 years of archived shows. Plus there's a nifty search feature that you can use to find out who plays your favorite bands :)

Agree with wg - some English Settlement would go well about now :)
  10:25pm
PB:

@holly, I agree some of those Smiths singles were amazing (but a little out of the outer timeframe for this show).
  10:25pm
Julie:

@MK What happened? You mean the site outage?
  10:26pm
Danne D:

Okay so like this is a singles show. Now if you were at the jukebox you'd be putting in a like $1 a song to hear this stuff. Pledging is like putting money in the jukebox and assuring that FMU keeps on going strong :)
  10:26pm
Adam in Portland:

Some Swell Maps perhaps for toe-taps?
  10:26pm
cheri:

hiya evan,,funky show so far--hello julie & danne,,happy early halloween efd,, julie & danne!! be safe!!!

  10:27pm
efd:

some Boston action for you, Holly!
  10:27pm
Julie:

What are we doing that you are telling us "be safe?"
  10:27pm
Julie:

Did you just say you were going to play Boston?!
  10:28pm
john:

If you really want to rep Boston, of course, the ideal option could only be the godlike Lou Miami and the Kozmetix.
  10:28pm
Van in Dallas:

@MK - Julie's show was hit by the WFMU site outage. We all had to pretty much listen on archive (normal for me)
  10:28pm
Danne D:

hiya cheri
  10:29pm
Holly in NC:

Oh, YES! I suppose 'just head' is fmu-inappropriate ;-)
  10:29pm

@Julie: listening to music that masks razor blades?

Geraldine I need money by Classic Ruins fits pledge theme....

Sad yes. But that didn't stop Dark Night of the Soul from setting an archived comments world record for number of comments after the show ;)
  10:30pm
Adam in Portland:

@Julie: you and me both.
  10:30pm
Julie:

I doubt I can get into that much trouble in the WFMU studio
  10:31pm
Danne D:

8( poor Julie. However it's a good time to remind you Julie that you are an FMU legend now :) (that the web outage gods did not recognize this is an outrage)
  10:31pm

  10:35pm
Holly in NC:

Sigh. MORE archives to troll. Will the embarrassment of riches never end?
Oh speaking of the Embarrassment ...maybe Special Eyes? Or Celebrity Art Party? Or..?
  10:35pm
Adam in Portland:

I LOVE the King!
  10:35pm
Julie:

This music makes me want to dance! But my legs say otherwise.
  10:35pm
andyg:

enjoying the broadcast tonight!
  10:37pm
Julie:

this is definitely one of those shows that bears a repeat listening. If I weren't broke ass already, I'd pledge to you again
  10:37pm
Adam in Portland:

@Julie: they'd better be dead!
  10:38pm
Van in Dallas:

If I hadn't already pledged like 10 times to other shows I would here. Or, if efd would dare play a Kate Bush or Toyah song, look out!
  10:38pm
Stevel:

Under $500 to go. Nickles and dimes COUNT!
  10:38pm
Droll:

I finish dinner and tune in at the very end of the show and realize I've missed authentic 45-Powered Hit Radio... EFD even talked over the intro of a song. I'm sooooo gonna go back and catch this on the archives.
  10:39pm
Danne D:

hola Ricardo :)
  10:40pm
Adam in Portland:

EFD knows how to shift gears!
  10:40pm
Jim Allen:

Got any Miller, Miller, Miller, and Sloan handy Evan?
  10:40pm
efd:

  10:40pm
Holly in NC:

Oh my gosh ...love & rockets now required!
  10:40pm
Danne D:

When I hear this Ball of Confusion riff I have to admit that I think a EZ-E
  10:40pm
Julie:

We are barely past the halfway mark as a station overall, and if you're here you KNOW you love Evan.
  10:40pm
slugluv1313:

WOW!!!! never heard TINA's version of "Ball of Confusion"!! way cool, THANK YOU MR. EFD!!!!!!
  10:41pm
efd:

Richard from Venezuela:

Saludos Danne D :D
  10:42pm
Jim Allen:

  10:42pm
Stevel:

OK, the bar moved again! Keep pushing! Radio like this is too good to miss!
  10:43pm

  10:47pm
Richard from Venezuela:

any killing joke 7"?
  10:47pm
Droll:

EFD, with all due respect, you're putting too much on the table. You should always leave them wanting more. Last week's CC, and this weeks' 45's with talkovers... Where do you go from here? Nonstop Harry Harrison airchecks?
  10:48pm
Stevel:

All Harry Harrison, all the time!
  10:51pm

Adam in Portland:

@Jack: I love you, you big dummy!
  10:54pm
john:

Loved this Professionals single--still got it somewhere, poster sleeve and all, but dropped it on my way out of my dorm several hundred years ago, leaving a big chunk of somewhat less than unbreakable vinyl on the asphalt. Utter perfection.
  10:54pm
Stevel:

OK, I'm broke, but I just upped my pledge. Fiscal discipline be damned! Keep it moving!
  10:54pm
Chop Scott:

Wondering if you are heading towards the Outlets "Best Friend" split with the Neighborhoods "Prettiest Girl" 7"--Classic Boston!
  10:56pm
Adam in Portland:

I'm originally from Cleeeeeeeeeeeveland!
  10:56pm
Julie:

This show is too good..I had to check my pocket lint for change
  10:56pm
PB:

Big Pistols fan but I had never heard that Professionals song before, It was great.
  10:57pm
Stevel:

Nickles and dimes! Nickles and dimes!. Keep it moving!
  10:57pm
Julie:

WFMU has just told me that I've done a wonderful thing!
  10:58pm
Julie:

SO was that the sex pistol who was in Ladies & Gentleman the Fabulous Stains, where they did that song The Professionals. Was it Steve Jones?
  10:58pm
efd:

You have! Thank you! (You too, Stevel!)
  10:59pm
Julie:

Is this a 10" and is that allowed?
  10:59pm
PB:

No more Sex Pistols offshoots. Thank you efd, that means no Sid.
  10:59pm
Adam in Portland:

@Julie: one and the same.
  11:00pm
efd:

fat-fingered the song entry, it's a 7"!
  11:00pm
Holly in NC:

Evan John & the H-Bombs!
  11:00pm
cheri:

evan & julie thank you for your company!!
  11:00pm
Danne D:

  11:01pm
Julie:

I thought that was Bow Wow Wow when it started
  11:01pm
Julie:

Typical man saying it's 10...oh never mind
  11:02pm
Kasey Kasem:

No hating!
  11:02pm
PB:

Specials?
  11:02pm
Holly in NC:

Ok, Barrence Whitfield?

@Julie - ha! ;-)
  11:02pm
Stevel:

Puny pledges make the needle move! Try it. Its FUN!
  11:03pm
Stevel:

Best ID Break of the year!
  11:03pm
Adam in Portland:

Jonsey and Paul Cook showed for Ladies and Gentlemen...But only one of them showered.
  11:04pm
efd:

No, THAT was the best ID break of the year! :D
  11:04pm
Kate:

The Saints!! This is the most awesome show ever! Thx for the OJ too!!
  11:05pm
john:

What Kate said!
  11:05pm
Adam in Portland:

What John said Kate said!
  11:07pm
Julie:

John & Kate plus 8? (I'm sad that I even know about that)
  11:07pm
Stevel:

Best Mackenzie EVER!
  11:08pm
Adam in Portland:

The Fast, the Last, the Ex, T. Rex!
  11:10pm
Van in Dallas:

I like Killing Joke too actually.
  11:11pm
efd:

Van, sadly I have no Killing Joke singles or I'd be all over that!
  11:11pm
Holly in NC:

I LOVE Killing Joke.

Oh, Ian.... (sigh)
  11:12pm
Stevel:

Van: So close, yet...
  11:12pm
T-Zero:

Great show tonght, EFD! Ranks up there as one of the best since the disco night. ;)
  11:13pm
Stevel:

T-Zero speaks the truth.
  11:13pm
Danne D:

I'll take songs I didn't get the full meaning of when I was kid for $100, Alex
  11:15pm
Van in Dallas:

Oh so no Killing Joke. No Nina Hagen. Toyah? Kate Bush? Too much to ask for? :)
  11:15pm
T-Zero:

Oh yea! I'd second some Nina Hagen.
  11:16pm
efd:

No singles at hand by any of those artists. I'm afraid. :(
  11:17pm
Stevel:

Hey. Money mark is not moving. Just pointing that out.
  11:18pm
T-Zero:

efd, Not a problem!
  11:18pm
Adam in Portland:

EFD: I'm singling you out for brilliant curatorial self-sufficiency.
  11:18pm
john:

This Questions the same band responsible for the great "The Price You Pay" around the same time?
  11:19pm
Holly in NC:

@Danne -
Did you get 'Wake Up & Make Love to Me'? ;-)
  11:19pm
SF Spike:

Killing Joke 7-inch records might be kinda hard to come by. They were much more of a 12-inch single band.
  11:19pm
Julie:

I'd third the Nina Hagen! And the disco show was legendary. See that, Evan, we are STILL talking about it!
  11:20pm
efd:

Johh, good question! I'm not sure, but would make sense.

Adam, thanks! (I think?)

Money Mark sounds like something you'd hear on Small Change's show...
  11:22pm
efd:

Repeating for recent arrivals to the playlist:
Folks, please consider making a pledge using the box at the top left of the page! This is my last show during our fundraiser and it would be great to help out WFMU by hitting my goal. Our commercial tenant is moving out of our building, leaving an $80k+ gap in our budget so we can really use your help! And thanks to all of you who have pledged already, it's greatly appreciated!
  11:22pm
Stevel:

If Money Mark isn't moving, we might want to call an ambulance. You know how he is.
  11:22pm
john:

Now I think of it, I'm pretty sure that was on Respond too, which makes it at least marginally more likely they were by the same band with the same name...
  11:22pm
Holly in NC:

Fourth Nina! TV-Glotzer or Smack Jack?
  11:22pm
Droll:

EFD, You're confusing William Huang and Wang Chung again.
  11:22pm
Van in Dallas:

Japan / David Sylvian...? Early Bowie? Genesis / early Gabriel? Pink Floyd? Moody Blues?
  11:23pm
Julie:

Is Money Mark single?
  11:23pm
Stevel:

$437.09 to go. Nick at it!
  11:24pm
Stevel:

Money Mark is all over the place, if you know what I mean.
  11:24pm
Jack McGuire:

@spike-still have killing joke 7" "wardance" for the ace bside, "psyche".
  11:26pm
Droll:

EFD, I stand corrected -- but I still wish you'd play a (the?) William Huang single.
  11:27pm
Adam in Portland:

@Stevel: wherever he lays his Mini-Moog is his home.
  11:27pm
cheri:

evan & julie ty for a funky show!!!
  11:28pm
efd:

Van, nuts, I have a Japan single but left it at home! Not your night it appears. :(
  11:28pm
Julie:

I'm just listening. oh Japan would've been great!
  11:28pm
Stevel:

AHHHHHHHHHH, love this song! Fleshtones!

Saw them twice in Madison. First time they played to about 25 people. Second time, packed to the gills. Great band.
  11:30pm
Adam in Portland:

Wait, Julie, you're not controlling this show with your mind?
  11:30pm
Stevel:

$423.09!!!!
  11:31pm
Van in Dallas:

I'm still enjoying Singles Going Steady week here on WFMU, including Give the Drummer Some stream :)
  11:31pm
Julie:

@Adam I WISH I'd known about all these bands
  11:33pm
Van in Dallas:

It's a double-edged sword isn't it Evan?
  11:34pm
Holly in NC:

Oh, nice!
  11:38pm
cheri:

ohh btw evan & julie have you got any halloween parties to go to this weekend??
  11:39pm
john:

The mandatory "DFFD!"
  11:44pm
efd:

Looks like everyone's energy is flagging at the same time, including mine! :)
  11:45pm
Adam in Portland:

THIRTY 1/2-time floozies?!?!?!
  11:45pm
Van in Dallas:

That's because of the lack of Toyah tracks :)
  11:46pm
Pearl Harbor:

Toyah! Toyah! Toyah!
  11:46pm
David B (chudleycannons):

thanks for the great show! sadly I got off of work superlate, but I'm looking forward to using this playlist while writing this weekend!
  11:47pm
Adam in Portland:

Floozies! Floozies! Floozies!
  11:47pm
Julie:

Money Mark moved the last time I looked though!
  11:47pm
Julie:

I am trying to figure out if the rumours of a mass police presence downtown are true
  11:47pm
slugluv1313:

THANK YOU FOR THE PASTICHE!!!!!!
any PERE UBU ???
  11:47pm
David B (chudleycannons):

The Brians were amazing! Will be checking out so many of these bands this weekend. Also have a strong urge to listen to Art Brut after that. :P
  11:48pm
Julie:

Yay tubeway army!
  11:49pm
efd:

  11:50pm
efd:

David B, thought the same thing about the Brians/Art Brut!
  11:50pm
Julie:

  11:51pm
cheri:

no parties,,evan & julie??
  11:51pm
efd:

Cheri, how could it possibly matter to you if any one here is going to any parties or not?
  11:53pm
Holly in NC:

Thanks for Tubeway & OMD, efd!
  11:56pm
Adam in Portland:

Everyone, everyone calm down. I think Cheri is simply trying to get us all to rent Air Bounce brand air castles for Halloween parties this weekend.
  11:56pm
Van in Dallas:

Still getting used to freeform radio. It's not us requesting of you guys playing, it's us consuming what you are offering. Not much overcross there.
  11:56pm
Julie:

$13.09 to take him to 80 percent?
  11:57pm
efd:

You're welcome, and thanks to all of you for listening and commenting!
  11:57pm
Danne D:

@Holly LOL ;)
  11:57pm
efd:

Would love to hit the 80% mark on the ol' thermometer! :)
