Listener comments!
	9:03pm Minnesota Jeff: P-U-M-P-E-D for this evenings show!
	9:04pm Mike East: I'm here!
	9:05pm will: I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that this is the greatest punk song ever written.
	9:05pm SteveL: I like Ready Steady Go better every time I hear it. I'm pretty stoked. I already have a feeling I'm going to be hitting this show a lot in the archives.
	9:06pm Barkevious Shabazz: How do you go from the splendor of Ready, Steady to the dreck of White Weddin'?
	9:06pm Holly in NC: Hi Evan & friends! I know this show is going to be stellar. Sad can't tune in 'til ~ 10:30. Y'all have fun in the meantime.
	9:06pm john: Please tell me these guys are from Pixburgh.
	9:07pm Danne D: Hi Funk Fans :) Hi EFD :)
	9:07pm Joe B: Let's get some pledge action going for the one and only Evan "Funk" Davies!
	9:07pm Barkevious Shabazz: The jags? Wowzers i'm ancient.
	9:09pm Thierry: Hi Evan and familiar names! Sounds like a great upcoming show to be back.
	9:10pm Matt from Springfield: EFD! Tonight's "Mayhem" show sounds extremely promising! Hi MN Jeff, Mike, will, SteveL, Barkevious, Holly, john, Danne, Joe B, Thierry and all other "Funk Fans"! :)
	9:10pm will: Was that "relive your youth" of "relieve your youth"?
	9:11pm Caryn: Damn, missed "Ready Steady Go"! Well, it's not as if I wasn't going to listen to this in the archives too.
	9:12pm Matt from Springfield: 12 INCH Altered Images!
	9:12pm Minnesota Jeff: Pezband, so much better than Necowaferband. ::big laffs::
	9:12pm Neal Adams: Confusing White Wedding with The Jags, Barkeviius? Why you, I oughta....
	9:12pm SteveL: Barkevious S. I believe the answer is, Fame. The different paths of Idol, Siouxie Sioux, Sid Vicious are fascinating. In the end, they all wanted to be on stage. Billy hit it big, and didn't even die. Always enjoy his bit in The Wedding Singer.
	9:13pm Cal Zone!: Mayhem in the PM! It's the New Afternoon Show for Night Owls! Like 32 years never happened!
	9:14pm john: What Cal said. Making me wish I'd gone to NYU. Or at least listened on the internet between school vacations.
	9:15pm will: Fast answer to Barkevious's first comment: Very easy--gimme money!!
	9:15pm Caryn: @SteveL: very true. I actually wonder what would've happened if Idol had played the T-1000 in "Terminator 2" like he was originally supposed to do.
	♥ 9:15pm efd: Now now, Neal, Barkevious meant no harm! I think was strictly referring to the career arc of Mr. Idol. Hi everyone, thanks for listening! Let's get those pledges coming in, especially you lurkers who I don't even know about! :)
	9:16pm Minnesota Jeff: Neal Adams is here?! I loved that Beast falling page in X-Men #57, Neal!
	9:16pm Thierry: a gem, this 12''
	9:16pm Billy Idol: ];,] (Does that look anything like my lip sneer, or have I been drinking again?)
	9:17pm Neal Adams: Not me Jeff, sorry.
	9:19pm will: I will pledge again, just because I must, the EFD show is the nazz, and got me back into listening to FMU shows live, for the surprises they contain.
	9:20pm Matt from Springfield: The Shoes! There's some classic power pop right here! :)
	9:21pm Oh Evan: I go back to those days stateside hearing this barage of exciting fresh ,beautiful music ,much of it from the uk but my youth was filled with the joy of being alive during a most unique time in history. and you sir were the pilot for a good part of the radio , round here . thanks for still being here evan .
	9:22pm Chowder: You are killing it EFD, keep up the good work!
	9:22pm Neal Adams: And sorry Barkevious..
	9:22pm Billy Idol: Caryn: I didn't know that about Terminator Idol. That would have been interesting. Robert Patrick sure worked a lot (just looked it up of course.)
	9:22pm Cal Zone!: @John. There was no 'internet' in 1982. It was a magical time when we listened to post punk on the radio, danced at clubs, and waited for imported vinyl and tiny indie punk 45's to turn up at boutique record stores. It's too easy to be a hipster today...we used to have to work at it!
	9:22pm Edley: This Bill Nelson song RULES. One of my faves :)
	9:22pm SteveL: Caryn: Er, I just outed my Bill Idol alter ego.
	9:23pm Mike East: Hey Matt - looks like Marco Benevento is getting around. Doing a live spot on WNYC today as well.
	9:23pm Cal Zone!: I've got this Bill Nelson on a 2x45 gatefold set!
	9:24pm john: @Cal: I was at school in rural Connecticut in 1982. It was damn near impossible. I've got the 12" of Flaming Desire--the double-7" is way cooler.
	9:24pm steve: hi evan!
	9:25pm Caryn: The breaking news on the tv is that archaeologists believe they've found the exact spot where Julius Caesar was stabbed to death. Kinda fits the mayhem show! @SteveL: I promise to ignore it and move on, if you so want :)
	9:25pm SteveL: Matt from Springfield: If you like The Shoes, get their new stuff. Heard it yet? Pretty damned good. (Midwest pop REPRESENT, please, thank you.)
	9:26pm Kat in Chicago: Forgot what a glorious synthy mess "Flaming Desire" is.
	9:26pm SteveL: Caryn: Nothing to see here.
	♥ 9:26pm efd: oh my goodness gracious, so many comments! I'm reading them all, but tough to respond during these kinds of shows. They (and you) are all appreciated!
	9:27pm john: New Shoes record is my fave rave album of the year, for what that's worth.
	9:27pm Holly in NC: @john - I was in school in suburban Connecticut in 1982 - no better. I was no Legs or Thurston, that's for sure!
	9:27pm Danne D: e tu cnn?
	9:28pm SteveL: efd: Watch your language!
	9:28pm Danne D: Interesting about the Julius Caesar news. Actually they had a thing on Caligula on History last night which kinda threw me, cuz, that was like actually someone from history and not an alien
	9:28pm Matt from Springfield: @SteveL: Really? Sounds like I should look into some "new Shoes" then! Thanks john too. @Mike: That's great! Must be the NY leg of Marco's publicity tour.
	9:28pm Barkevious Shabazz: Jaz came home!
	9:30pm Mike East: @Matt - looks like he didn't bring Joanne, though. FMU gets the good stuff.
	9:30pm john: @Holly, I lived in suburban Connecticut then, but at least unlike school, at home we were just barely in range of WNYU--another town or two over and it was gone.
	9:31pm SteveL: Got my Martha swag from last marathon. If you've never pledged won a WFMU DJ mix, you really haven't lived.
	9:33pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): The Christmas card Billy Idol sent me in 1992: http://tinyurl.com/idolxmas92
	♥ 9:34pm efd: btw everyone is welcome to keep me updated on the Orioles-Yankees game.
	9:34pm Holly in NC: @john - I just wasn't that hip. Though I did sneak into a club in New Haven to see the Ramones!
	9:34pm Michael from the Left Coast: Oh, I missed Flaming Desire (and the 12 inch too)
	9:34pm SteveL: I'm going to play old man for a moment: Remembering when band names like Killing Joke, Dead Kennedys, Throbbing Gristle, were damned near frightening to even hear. It was a very unusual time in music history. OK, I'm not old any more.
	9:35pm Cal Zone!: Question for Evan. What percentage of tonight's vinyl was purchased from 99 Records vs. Bonaparte Records?
	9:35pm Danne D: Why can I see Ozzy covering this song somehow?
	9:36pm Minnesota Jeff: "Lots of pizza and ice cold cokes!" Ha!!
	9:36pm SteveL: Danne D: I can see that very clearly.
	9:36pm Minnesota Jeff: Danne D - Whoa! Yeah, totally! I can see that as well.
	9:37pm john: Trying to think who I'd have seen in New Haven round that era. Stranglers comes to mind first.
	9:37pm Cal Zone!: Baseball Update for EFD. Top of the 7th Orioles beating the other team 2-1 and evidently A-Rod has just jumped ship and is playing for the guys with the crazy cartoon bird head on their hats.
	9:38pm Matt from Springfield: "Hong Kong Garden"!!!! SIOUXSIE!!
	9:39pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): I remember Night Flight showing the "Hong Kong Garden" video.
	9:40pm Barkevious Shabazz: EFD hittin the post.
	9:40pm Danne D: Why can I see Ozzy covering this song somehow?
	9:40pm Danne D: (just kiddin')
	9:41pm SteveL: I'm just going to say a band name out loud. Vibrators. (anything but "Pogo Dancing" Talk about a sell-out attempt.)
	9:41pm Cal Zone!: I saw Siouxie and The Banshees play at the Malibu nightclub on LI in 1980 or so. I was at the club early and watched her puke her guts out on stage during the sound check. She came out a couple hours later and put on a magnificent show! A real trooper!
	9:42pm UNICORNS: can't deny it . u 2 were there too.
	9:42pm Power Popeye: Love this Howard Johnson's color-scheme,EFD! Ever play any Off Broadway (the band) ?
	♥ 9:42pm efd: try to remember a time before the bombast and ubiquity when U2 sounded new and kind of amazing.
	9:42pm Barkevious Shabazz: Disco in Moscow!
	9:42pm Holly in NC: @john - see, I'd never even heard of the Stranglers in '82. My other high school era New Haven shows = Neil Young, David Bowie, the Police (with REM opening) & Rush. Rush X3, actually :-)
	9:42pm Matt from Springfield: This is early early U2, watching Joy Division record era U2.
	9:43pm SteveL: I did NOT see U2 during this time period--twice. I believe that was an error.
	♥ 9:43pm efd: those days are long gone, clearly, but try to picture them!
	9:43pm Cal Zone!: I remember when U2 was cutting edge! And they were great too!
	9:43pm Justsheano: Perfection tonight, Mr. Davies.
	9:44pm Danne D: And now you find yourself in '82. The disco hot spots hold no charm for you. You can concern yourself with bigger things. Catch the pearl and ride the dragon's wings.
	9:44pm Holly in NC: I LOVED the 1st 2 U2 lps. High school, people - & efd's right - they were absolutely not mainstream.
	9:44pm Kat in Chicago: Oh, U2. I liked them once.
	9:45pm Power Popeye: I love reading about Bono and Dylan hanging out and drinking together in "Chronicles Vol. 1"
	9:45pm steve: 75-85 - best music decade ever
	9:45pm Barkevious Shabazz: Nice white guy slap bass careof U2
	9:45pm SteveL: Nice Danne.
	9:45pm Michael from the Left Coast: U2 is mainstream now--but then no one sounded like the Edge and everyone copied him (see Junior's "Mama Used to Say")
	9:45pm Danne D: U2, Kat?
	9:45pm john: @Holly, sounds like I may have a few years on you, and just to lose my hipness cred, I saw Tom Petty at the New Haven Coliseum in '81. Split Enz opened. And I took some crap about playing the first couple U2 records in the dorm, yeah.
	9:46pm joe: 'ello folks
	9:46pm Danne D: LOL SteveL well I have to admit it's what I think of when I hear the word '82 'ello joe
	9:46pm Holly in NC: OOhh! I got to see Adam Ant in my home town jai alai fronton, that was the best! I wore my band uniform, which looked pretty much exactly like an ant costume! And the Romantics opened!
	9:47pm joe: hearing something makes me almost remember how important u2 wad to me at one time
	9:47pm Power Popeye: I'd take 65-75 any day. ---- I thought "Beautiful Day" was a decent late-period U2 song.
	9:47pm Matt from Springfield: @Danne: Wow, "Heat Of The Moment"! Had to look that up. (So a new "arena rock" supergroup actually touted the then-current view that the discos hold no charm for you! True for many people, but such a trying-to-fit-in lyric! :)
	9:47pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Time to bust out a Stiff Records box set.
	9:47pm Kat in Chicago: Me2, Danne :) Forgot I saw them at the Park West on their first American tour! Holy crap.
	9:48pm john: Whoa. Adam Ant at the fronton? OK, that's pretty damn rad.
	9:48pm Danne D: ayyyyyyyyyyyyy
	9:48pm Holly in NC: I can't hear the Lords, but I singing along anyway because I LOVE THIS SONG
	9:48pm Barkevious Shabazz: This lords is top notch.
	9:49pm Kat in Chicago: LOL picturing Holly in her band uniform at Adam Ant!
	9:49pm Cal Zone!: Early u2 shows were absolutely magical in the early days...and then they became a Vegas magic show. Joshua Tree was one of the worst ideas of the 80's. A shark jump moment.
	♥ 9:49pm efd: Jack Casady on bass on this SVT song!
	9:50pm Cal Zone!: I booked SVT at my community college on LI! They were swell!
	9:50pm Holly in NC: @John - And pre-show Adam ate at the Post Road HoJo's, a friend of mine may still have his spoon.
	9:50pm john: I remember (gonna have to ban that verb here soon) when U2 were written about as spearheading a [ahem] new psychedelia along with Echo and the Bunnymen and Teardrop Explodes. Probably still have the mags that promulgated that nonsense, though the writers and editors have presumably been too embarrassed to emerge from their bunker in a quarter century.
	9:50pm Danne D: @M_f_S That album is #GHS-2046 I believe. I'll double check when I get home. Didn't see 'em live until the 25th anniversary tour though (gotta love a 25th anniversary for a band-lineup that last 2 years).
	9:50pm Matt from Springfield: @Holly: Really, did Adam & the Ants wear costumes like band uniforms? Like George Clinton said, you could tell the hardcore fans at Parliament shows because "they dressed even crazier than we did"!
	9:50pm Danne D: (a little hard to get to the arena on my own when I was 12)
	9:51pm Michael from the Left Coast: EFD--make that the GREAT Jack Casady on bass in this song Always wondered why SVT didn't go further
	9:51pm Holly in NC: @Kat - lots of gold braid. And epaulets. They don't make band uniforms like they used, at least not in public schools.
	9:51pm As I Recall: I remember when Adam Ant broke his ankle on Motown 25
	9:51pm Danne D: jai alai was still in its ascendancy in '82
	9:52pm Majorette: It was all about the spats.
	9:52pm joe: this is kind of an amusing set as I am currently wait for my wife to finish seeing Morrissey at Radio City
	9:53pm Holly in NC: @Matt - Yes. Yes, they did. And of course I had the makeup, also.
	9:54pm Matt from Springfield: @Cal: Nice score! I wish colleges (and especially comm. colleges!) still booked the kinds of bands they once did! @Danne: Well a 25th anniversary lineup "is what it is". Might not last too long, but if you enjoy them it's your chance to see the band. If you think you'll have fun, enjoy it! :)
	9:54pm Holly in NC: Oh, evan, I can't listen yet, you cad!
	9:54pm Minnesota Jeff: Damn, this is such a great song. Adam & The Ants are incredible.
	9:54pm Matt from Springfield: Shout-out, to all you Scorpios!
	9:55pm Danne D: @M_f_S (lol already saw 'em - 25th anniversary was 5 years ago ;) Let's see Howe looked literally like Eddie from Iron Maiden. (This song sounds just like "The Metro") Palmer still was fantastic - really mindblowing.
	9:56pm Danne D: Like if the B-52s met "The Metro"
	9:57pm Cal Zone!: Love the 'S'! I want to go left right!
	9:57pm Minnesota Jeff: The B-52s with Mark E Smith on vox.
	9:57pm Matt from Springfield: Lobster Metro!! :D
	9:58pm Barkevious Shabazz: Is Vic there?
	9:58pm Majorette: The Fall with Fred Schneider on Vocals!
	9:59pm joe: left of the dial folks
	9:59pm Danne D: Anyway, I'm hitting the car now - will be back in a bit. :)
	10:00pm Danne D: Funk-o-phonic Funk :) Evan Davies loud is a little lower than Todd-o-phonic Todd loud. Now I'm out.
	10:00pm Matt from Springfield: Recreation working! I noticed right away you didn't have the "American Woman" riff as your bed music (from a hip hop song from after '82 you know! :)
	10:00pm Thierry: Didn't The Pretenders release the first single of the 80's, in January 1980?
	10:00pm SteveL: How long have those records been sitting on the shelf?
	10:01pm Matt from Springfield: KEILI!
	10:01pm Michael from the Left Coast: Hey how about some Tenpole Tudor?
	10:01pm Michael from the Left Coast: AH, I knew this was coming up
	10:02pm Cal Zone!: 30 years later. I'm still hungry and angrier!
	10:02pm Holly in NC: SOOO HUNGRY!!!! ;-) OK. home in 25 minutes...
	10:03pm Thierry: Just have a look at the playlist's first hour! awesome.
	10:05pm Minnesota Jeff: The bass on this song sure ain't hungry, its farting all over the place!
	10:05pm Caryn: Too bad I was too young to enjoy these at the time. The latest songs played so far came out when I was 3. At that age, I was just listening to classic rock, Zappa and Sha Na Na.
	♥ 10:05pm efd: Michael from the Left Coast, your request is next on WFMU!
	♥ 10:06pm efd: Love seeing everyone's excitement and enthusiasm, keep it coming! It's also great to see that pledge meter nudging up a bit, but WFMU needs more more more! Thank you!
	10:06pm Michael from the Left Coast: thanks efd--I will contribute to the pledge drive this week by the way
	10:07pm SteveL: Caryn: Zappa at three? Nice. Yes. Pledge! Where the heck else are you going to hear this!
	10:07pm Matt from Springfield: @Caryn: Zappa?! Finnish parents are more hip than Americans ;)
	10:07pm Andrea True: Got any coke?
	10:08pm Cal Zone!: Eddie Tenpole! Where's he at now?
	10:09pm Caryn: @SteveL & Matt: well, my dad was a record collector and my mom was a rock journalist, so me and my brother were raised on lots of music.
	♥ 10:11pm efd: ZOMG I got lulled into a four-song set! NEVER AGAIN!!
	10:12pm john: I can think of a couple other bands that were kind of soundtracky for me from the New Afternoon Show, but there's no way I'm going to remember if EFD played them or it was someone else. But what came to mind was Human Switchboard (you did play them, if I recall) and (are you all seated comfortably?) Urban Verbs.
	10:12pm Michael from the Left Coast: This Senders song is exactly the same as Crawl Up and Die by Stray Cats
	10:12pm Barkevious Shabazz: Eddie Tenpole works at an Aaron's Rentacenter in Croydon,PA.
	10:14pm Cal Zone!: Request for something from PYLON See Voo Play!
	♥ 10:14pm efd: oh, I play! Stand by!
	10:16pm Caryn: WTH? TV just warned of snowfall? I object! Luckily, EFD and his mayhem show are here.
	10:16pm Thierry: No sleep 'till the EFD show!
	10:17pm Destroit: busy board you have goin on EFD. Hello everyone!
	10:19pm john: You've got to figure Jake Burns single-handedly kept the throat lozenge industry afloat for a few years there.
	10:19pm Cal Zone!: Love 14th Street! Does Syl work at Aarons too?
	10:20pm Thierry: Hi Destroit! You got snow too?
	10:20pm Chop Scott: EFD! Killer program tonight---Cheers!!!
	10:21pm Barkevious Shabazz: Here's a request fer somma that Sister Feelings Call from before they became the kings of horrible.
	10:21pm Destroit: Not yet Thierry. Where are you at?
	♥ 10:22pm efd: Chop Scott! Once again I salute you for your speaker-repair skills, allowing me to blast tonight's show in the studio!
	10:24pm Thierry: Wher I am? North of France, pretty mild, I guess not like Detroit of Finland.
	10:25pm Harry McDevitt: THE SHIRTS ! The Freakin SHIRTS! another reason FMU is it
	10:25pm Harry McDevitt: and PYLON cold water ,please quick
	10:26pm Cal Zone!: Turn up the VOLUME!
	10:26pm EL: Athens had it all figured out.
	10:26pm john: Ibanez pinch-hitting for ARoid in the 9th just tied the game with a dinger. Good thing the Junkees only have the guy they just benched for five more years at $30M per.
	♥ 10:27pm efd: goddammit
	10:28pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Toadies used to cover Pylon's "Stop it" regularly in their shows. They recorded it for "Rubberneck" but it was one of two songs [the other being "Run In With Dad"] that didn't make it onto the released version.
	10:28pm Destroit: LOLAROD
	10:29pm Cal Zone!: yeah...godamn Ibanez! I hated him as a Philly and now he;s messin with my Orioles.
	10:29pm john: Yeah. Got out of the 9th anyway. Johnson has kind of stunk up the place this series.
	10:30pm john: I was hoping this would be what you'd play from Splash of Colour! I mean, I could have played it myself, but it's way more fun to hear on the radio.
	10:31pm Thierry: Is Mookie Wilson forgotten?
	10:32pm john: No, but he's not available to pinch-hit.
	10:33pm Barkevious Shabazz: Ibanez pinch hiting for Gibson.
	10:36pm john: O's just ran themselves out of the 10th. Andino caught flatfooted a few steps off second. I'm switching to the A's-Tigers.
	10:37pm t-bombhs: tight rope fits the theme of the night. lucky dp
	10:37pm mildred: U2 was great and so was REM... once upon a time not so long ago. Actually, it was long ago.
	10:37pm Destroit: Good choice John ;)
	10:39pm Thierry: Let's stick to 80's baseball to fit with tonight's show.
	10:39pm Caroline: Orange Juice Request over here!
	10:39pm Barkevious Shabazz: This Passions is tops.
	10:40pm john: Fernandomania!
	♥ 10:40pm efd: Caroline, would you settle for Paul Haig solo?
	10:40pm Cal Zone!: I wish it was the 82 Yankees playing tonight. They totally sucked!
	10:41pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Jay Johnstone!
	10:41pm Thierry: not much left of the china.
	10:42pm mildred: I also had it bad for the Boomtown Rats and (here it goes) INXS back in those same days, so what do I know.
	10:43pm Mike Love - Not War: Carl and the Passions?
	10:43pm Holly in NC: I'm back! I feel like I'm living a 'Losing My Edge' scenario, got held up talking with a Mtn Goats fanatic who freaked when I told I had the Shrimper cassettes ;-) THEN in car local dj played Trans-era Neil Young - spooky given that was 1st Neil show I ever saw.
	10:44pm john: Couple of those Rats elpees still hold up well. Not all of them, but Tonic and Surfacing both still sound great!
	10:44pm Colin: I liked Men Without Work.
	10:45pm Holly in NC: @Mildred - REM was beyond great. I just ignore the post-80s lps.
	10:46pm Pike Meters: Come on down and meet your maker Come on down and make the stand
	10:46pm john: @Holly, that must have been a pretty curious intro to live Neil. I loved Trans. Nobody else around school did, unsurprisingly.
	10:46pm Kenzo: Hey, efd: Having any issues with adding stuff to the playlist all of a sudden? Email me.
	10:47pm Holly in NC: @Mildred - sex. Michael Hutchence. Adolescence. There is no shame.
	♥ 10:47pm efd: no, everything's working OK so far!
	10:47pm CanAmProg: What we need right now is some sweet-assed Saga .... No one can stop us now ... tonight we're on the loose we put the brain on idle, and let the others take it for awhile ....
	10:47pm Chop Scott: Blast away! I am so happy to be listening tonight.
	10:49pm Cal Zone!: Endy's up at bat...this could be a miracle Mets moment twice removed....
	10:50pm Cal Zone!: or not
	10:50pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Any chance you have a Wipers tune on-deck?
	10:51pm Ken Temkin: Something's missing for you, you, you.
	♥ 10:52pm efd: Ken, I don't remember bleeping that song back at NYU!
	♥ 10:54pm efd: BadGuy Z, sorry, no Wipers. (And I know people mentioned the Call and the Alarm (kind of) earlier, don't have those either.
	10:54pm Holly in NC: @John - 1/2 show was Trans, 1/3 was acoustic. Actually a better & less disconcerting show then when I saw him many years later in Chapel Hill with Sonic Youth opening. Oh and, and, and I have a Sonic Youth at Hampshire College concert tee shirt ca 1986-87, that is some cred right there, I think ;-) Disclosure - I didn't see the SY show, I chose to stay in and write (gulp) an econ paper & finish a lighting design project, , a good friend brought me the t shirt. Cannot tell a lie. I've never been cool.
	♥ 10:54pm efd: Then again we also played "Too Drunk To Fuck" uncensored on the air back then. Different times.
	10:55pm john: @Holly, to paraphrase Oscar Wilde, the only thing cooler than going to the Sonic Youth show is NOT going to the Sonic Youth show.
	10:55pm some other guy: do you have comateens? "cool chick", perhaps? chin chin? It's funny how much this resembles the radio show I did nearly 20 years later. It didn't even occur to me that it was pretty much a throwback show at the time, but it was.
	10:56pm Torque: In a perfect world, Head East would be right up there with Styx.
	10:56pm Matt from Springfield: @Holly: Neil Young's live in Berlin show was kind of like that -- featuring his songs from Trans, but also featuring old Crazy Horse electric and Neil acoustic songs.
	10:57pm Holly in NC: Cool Chick! 2nd vote for! And Twitter requests still hold...
	♥ 10:57pm efd: How about "Get Off My Case" by the Comateens?
	10:57pm 4ever Jung: Neil's best were Harvest and After The Gold Rush, IMHO.
	♥ 10:58pm efd: Holly, you'll have to refresh my memory on the Twitter requests! I can't remember back that far.
	10:58pm Holly in NC: xoxo
	10:58pm Barkevious Shabazz: Cmon Ugly Nora...
	10:59pm Matt from Springfield: Wow, Robyn Hitchcock, pre-Egyptians, post-punk! Diff than what I expect from him!
	10:59pm john: Gosh, I played this Robyn Hitchcock album to dust, to raised eyebrows from virtually all and definitely sundry.
	10:59pm Holly in NC: @efd -Robyn -I suggested The Lizard, but Brenda is quite wonderful. And New Math. We Walk Among You, of course
	♥ 11:00pm efd: I'm sure you all recognized the distinctive drumming of Vince Ely from the Psychedelic Furs on that Robyn Hitchcock song.
	11:01pm Weems: What, no Dexy's? Joe King Carrasco? Blasters?
	11:01pm Cal Zone!: This Paul Haig was a biiiiggg NAS hit...as I remember :)
	11:01pm spandau: ballet ?
	11:01pm McAlpinist: Eric Johnson can tell what specific brand of battery is in an effects pedal just by the sound of it. That's awesome talent right there.
	11:01pm fun: boy 3?
	11:02pm psy: furs ?
	11:02pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): I love that version of "Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black)" that Devo and Neil Young perform in the movie "Human Highway."
	11:02pm Cal Zone!: Weems is in the house? Where's Pablo?
	11:02pm Haircut: 100
	11:02pm the: jam
	11:02pm Barkevious Shabazz: How bout something for all the spotty, balding Prefab Sprout fanboys?
	♥ 11:02pm efd: oh I've got all those with me, Weems!
	11:03pm under: tones ?
	11:03pm Fog: Hat
	11:05pm Holly in NC: @efd - heh. My drummer recognition skills are limited to Neil Peart vs nrt Neil Peart ;-) And you know I love the P Furs (another New Haven show)! I wore a pink skirt, slouchy socks, & white Reeboks, EGADS @BadGuyZero - me also @John - Next to I Often Dream of Trains, still likely my fave Robyn.
	11:05pm Julie: one of my fave Robyn songs!
	11:06pm Prof. Kwizzmo D: How many elements are there? (5 pts.)
	11:06pm Holly in NC: Hi Julie! The Lizard?
	11:06pm Me-me Loose: good show!
	11:06pm Caryn: Any chance of The Specials?
	11:07pm Cal Zone!: Joe King Carrasco and Tex just dropped a routine fly! Perfect!
	11:08pm Rickwaukee: anything from Think Pink by Fabulous Poodles and I'll just shit... wait, that's not much of an incentive is it?
	11:09pm SteveL: Please do NOT play anything from Think Pink.
	11:10pm Prof. Kwizzmo D: 118
	11:10pm john: @Holly, I'd add Fegmania! in there but could live happily with those two, to be sure. Now I think of it, other New Haven shows included Aztec Camera (probably '83), Lloyd Cole and the Commotions first US show, and The Three O'Clock (but we're in '85 now, at the late, lamented Grotto). Probably sockless. That's how I rolled.
	11:11pm Cal Zone!: The only band that really matters...The Bureau!
	11:12pm Buck Owens: "Ain't no money above the fifth fret."
	11:12pm Matt from Springfield: @Julie: Really? That's different from most of the Robyn Hitchcock I've heard--must be very early.
	11:12pm dexys: mid
	11:12pm Weems: Thanks Funk! Miss that Carrasco album. Remember it being wonderful! Wish I had seen him live! Also regret skipping Secret Affair at Privates!! The Bureau! Saw the lead singer at Ken Sitz Mod Monday at Tramps. Nitecaps?
	11:12pm Matt from Springfield: This Bureau rocks! Really Northern Soul vibe about it!
	11:13pm where: is hal the show ?
	♥ 11:14pm efd: I saw Carrasco at Privates - great! Missed Secret Affair too, though. No Nitecaps, I'm afraid.
	11:15pm here: comes tim sommer
	11:16pm Fuzzy: Got HSR?
	11:16pm The Changeling: My Medal!
	11:17pm Holly in NC: @John - I wore sockless docksiders, a yellow oxford & hoop earrings when my sartorally confused leather-jacketed died-black hair self clawed up to the front row of a Husker Du show @ UMAss. Lost 1 docksider, 1 earring, part of an earlobe, lots of blood. That's how I rolled ;-)
	11:17pm esg: esg
	11:17pm SteveL: efd: Ever hear of or own Spooner, now better known as Garbage? Drummer Butch Vig. They had a Graham Parker-esque wavy vibe.
	11:17pm Barkevious Shabazz: All of these "horn" tracks are pretenders to the throne that is "Beat Surrender.". In the slick English double gatefold 7".
	11:18pm Ken Temkin: @Funk-caught me singing along to the Chords. Hi Weems and Timmy
	11:18pm john: @Holly, now THERE's that elusive cred if ever I saw any!
	11:19pm bow: wow wow , adam , caberet voltaire
	11:20pm Arch Iver: Voodoo Glow Skulls - Hickee shared 7" A classic! <p><p>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SM6rBP3dEs
	11:22pm Weems: I feel The Raybeats are in the on deck circle!
	11:23pm Danne D: I'm back :)
	♥ 11:24pm efd: I think I might be veering back into the stuff you don't like so much before running through the whole Bob Singerman roster!
	11:24pm Holly in NC: Yay Yankees. I will say no more. :-)
	11:24pm Caryn: Few shows would make me stay awake all night, but this has been great to hear live.
	11:26pm john: Could have heard it at 4pm (did I get that rightish?) in 1982!
	11:26pm KevinBK: Totally great show tonight, keep it up!
	♥ 11:27pm efd: Thanks Caryn, I appreciate it! What time is it in Finland, 4:30am? 5:30?
	11:27pm Julie: this is gonna be repeat archive listening
	11:27pm john: @Holly, The Orioles called. They stole your Docksider.
	11:28pm Caryn: @efd: 6:27 a.m. Breakfast tv started 3 minutes ago.
	11:28pm SteveL: Right on, Caryn.
	♥ 11:28pm efd: ay caramba!
	11:29pm Weems: Sal called. You're playing too many red-greens!
	11:29pm Barkevious Shabazz: Yachts. Dats da col' rock stuff.
	11:29pm Angel Pagan: Punk!
	11:29pm Matt from Springfield: @Julie: It's an unmitigated thrill! (I wish this whole episode was in podcast form--listen to as one continuous mix! But as long as I have a 'Net connection, I can listen to this Archive and make it like that!)
	11:31pm Danne D: I gotta request, EFD: Keep it up :)
	11:31pm Holly in NC: @John - and they are welcome to it!
	♥ 11:31pm efd: Many thanks to Steve in Brooklyn, Wilson in TN, Jimmy in FL, Henry in CA, Barkevious, Julie in NYC and Neal in NJ for your generous pledges! Who else will pledge tonight? Your time is running out!
	11:33pm john: Yeah, well at least one of them might have been playing in it tonight.
	11:33pm Weems: Yachts, Ultravox, got to be XTC next!
	11:34pm Matt from Springfield: @Danne: It's normally not polite to issue demands to DJs, but that is one demand they want to hear!! :) I second it! I insist!
	11:35pm trixia in sf: enjoying the music tonight!
	11:35pm Holly in NC: @efd - Why is there no cat hair on your floor (gazing despairingly at my own floor)? Magic powers? Sorry can't up monthly pledge, would if I could.
	11:37pm Rickwaukee: arf!
	11:37pm Julie: bow wow wowwwww!
	11:37pm BULLDOZ'r: Attack of the slap bass
	11:37pm BULLDOZ'r: Attack of the slap bass
	11:37pm Julie: there's another Julie in NYC listening?
	♥ 11:38pm efd: Julie, yes there is! Sending this one out to john and all Chihuahua owners!
	11:38pm Holly in NC: Bow Wow Wow was much better than most people credit.
	11:39pm Matt from Springfield: Bow wow WOW, is that really their album title??
	11:39pm john: Thanks! He stopped snoring for a moment to listen.
	11:40pm SteveL: Bow Wow Wow was a greats show. One of the sweatiest.
	♥ 11:40pm efd: Matt, would I have typed all that in if it weren't?
	11:40pm Caryn: @Matt: exactly what I was wondering!
	11:41pm Holly in NC: Oh, yes.
	11:42pm Holly in NC: @john - any doggie dreams tonight?
	11:45pm Barkevious Shabazz: Dammi, had to walk Frank and missed ACR.
	11:45pm john: Actually, there's a bit of a hind leg twitch, so he may be chasing cats, dreaming of having four working legs so he might actually catch one, not that he'd have a clue what to do if he did other than accept an array of puncture wounds. Still, a dog can dream, can't he?
	11:47pm Weems: Love guessing what's next. After Fingerprintz...James white? ESG?Konk? Liquid Liquid? Heaven 17? Haircut 100?
	11:48pm Caryn: @john: maybe he's in the mayhem show spirit and is pogoing in his sleep?
	11:49pm Holly in NC: Pigbag? Bronski Beat? (long shot) ;-)
	11:50pm john: Great thought, Caryn, but for a pogo I'd expect that tiny yippy sleep bark that sounds more like a hiccup but is just a happy dream sound. We should all have one.
	11:50pm hey efd: you can't leave human league out .
	♥ 11:51pm efd: Weems, you were one song off with your guess(es). Stand by...
	11:51pm Holly in NC: @john - dogs need their dreams. cats & humans also.
	11:51pm hey efd: seconds for john lennon
	11:52pm mildred: @ Holly: I think we must have been trolling the Pioneer Valley at the same time. I saw both REM and Husker Du at Umass in the 80s, amongst others. The days of the good 'ol UPC and spring concerts that ruled.
	11:52pm Caryn: @john: maybe someone stole his Docksider mid-pogo, so he's not in a "happy yippy bark" mood?
	11:53pm john: Oh gosh yes. It's a happy sleep when he does it. I was really wishing something similar on all of us. Except maybe the cat-chasing. Just end up looking for the Neosporin that way. And Caryn, if that happened, it's fortunate he's only got three legs that touch the ground at the best of times!
	11:53pm Julie: I still adore Bow Wow Wow
	11:54pm Matt from Springfield: Haircut 100!
	11:56pm some other guy: great show evan! I really wish this was a weekly show, not that I don't enjoy your regular show; I do.
	11:56pm Holly in NC: @Mildred - I lived in 'hamp 1984-90. Love it. @Caryn - good one! :-)
	♥ 11:58pm efd: Thanks so much everyone for listening, commenting, and (in some cases) pledging! It's all very much appreciated!!
	11:58pm john: Actually, he's starting now, and a bit of a smile too. Maybe he just knows we're talking about him.
	11:59pm john: Great show, Evan--thanks for doing it!
	11:59pm Matt from Springfield: Oh noes, it's over! :( But, what an AMAZING show this was! :) Thank you SO MUCH Evan!! Have a good night everyone!
	11:59pm Danne D: Thanks for a great show EFD :D Have a good night everyone :) Don't go anywhere though as Keili is on next :)
	11:59pm On the Yazoo: Thanks.. I really enjoyed it.
	11:59pm Holly in NC: @John - what's his name?
	12:00am Julie: keeeep pledging!
	12:00am Holly in NC: Thank you, efd
	12:00am john: Oh, he gets called lots of things, but officially he's Mr President.
	12:01am Caryn: Yay, great show!
	9:34am Cal Zone!: Some of the Records heard on the Mayhem show were provided by 99 Records on 99 McDougal Street in the village. It is now an Indian Restaurant. Great show EFD!
	4:02pm Tushko: What a great set! I lived on the "New Afternoon Show" on WNYU in the early 80s.

October 10, 2012: LP Mayhem In The PM: 3 hours of power-pop, post-punk, new wave and punk from 1978-1982! (31 Days Of October Silent Fundraiser, week 2)

Listen to this show: Pop-up listen Pop-up player!

Tonight it's another one of my "Mayhem" shows, where I return to my college radio roots and play nothing but power-pop, post-punk, new wave and punk from 1978-1982. The last few years I've done this during WFMU's Singles Going Steady week, so I'm turning the tables this time and playing nothing but LPs!

It's part of the station's 31 Days Of October silent fundraiser -- we're giving you a full month of special shows instead of interrupting our on-air programming for a second time this year, but we really need your support to help keep us on the air.

P L E A S E P L E D G E N O W !

Listener comments!
	9:03pm Minnesota Jeff: P-U-M-P-E-D for this evenings show!
	9:04pm Mike East: I'm here!
	9:05pm will: I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that this is the greatest punk song ever written.
	9:05pm SteveL: I like Ready Steady Go better every time I hear it. I'm pretty stoked. I already have a feeling I'm going to be hitting this show a lot in the archives.
	9:06pm Barkevious Shabazz: How do you go from the splendor of Ready, Steady to the dreck of White Weddin'?
	9:06pm Holly in NC: Hi Evan & friends! I know this show is going to be stellar. Sad can't tune in 'til ~ 10:30. Y'all have fun in the meantime.
	9:06pm john: Please tell me these guys are from Pixburgh.
	9:07pm Danne D: Hi Funk Fans :) Hi EFD :)
	9:07pm Joe B: Let's get some pledge action going for the one and only Evan "Funk" Davies!
	9:07pm Barkevious Shabazz: The jags? Wowzers i'm ancient.
	9:09pm Thierry: Hi Evan and familiar names! Sounds like a great upcoming show to be back.
	9:10pm Matt from Springfield: EFD! Tonight's "Mayhem" show sounds extremely promising! Hi MN Jeff, Mike, will, SteveL, Barkevious, Holly, john, Danne, Joe B, Thierry and all other "Funk Fans"! :)
	9:10pm will: Was that "relive your youth" of "relieve your youth"?
	9:11pm Caryn: Damn, missed "Ready Steady Go"! Well, it's not as if I wasn't going to listen to this in the archives too.
	9:12pm Matt from Springfield: 12 INCH Altered Images!
	9:12pm Minnesota Jeff: Pezband, so much better than Necowaferband. ::big laffs::
	9:12pm Neal Adams: Confusing White Wedding with The Jags, Barkeviius? Why you, I oughta....
	9:12pm SteveL: Barkevious S. I believe the answer is, Fame. The different paths of Idol, Siouxie Sioux, Sid Vicious are fascinating. In the end, they all wanted to be on stage. Billy hit it big, and didn't even die. Always enjoy his bit in The Wedding Singer.
	9:13pm Cal Zone!: Mayhem in the PM! It's the New Afternoon Show for Night Owls! Like 32 years never happened!
	9:14pm john: What Cal said. Making me wish I'd gone to NYU. Or at least listened on the internet between school vacations.
	9:15pm will: Fast answer to Barkevious's first comment: Very easy--gimme money!!
	9:15pm Caryn: @SteveL: very true. I actually wonder what would've happened if Idol had played the T-1000 in "Terminator 2" like he was originally supposed to do.
	♥ 9:15pm efd: Now now, Neal, Barkevious meant no harm! I think was strictly referring to the career arc of Mr. Idol. Hi everyone, thanks for listening! Let's get those pledges coming in, especially you lurkers who I don't even know about! :)
	9:16pm Minnesota Jeff: Neal Adams is here?! I loved that Beast falling page in X-Men #57, Neal!
	9:16pm Thierry: a gem, this 12''
	9:16pm Billy Idol: ];,] (Does that look anything like my lip sneer, or have I been drinking again?)
	9:17pm Neal Adams: Not me Jeff, sorry.
	9:19pm will: I will pledge again, just because I must, the EFD show is the nazz, and got me back into listening to FMU shows live, for the surprises they contain.
	9:20pm Matt from Springfield: The Shoes! There's some classic power pop right here! :)
	9:21pm Oh Evan: I go back to those days stateside hearing this barage of exciting fresh ,beautiful music ,much of it from the uk but my youth was filled with the joy of being alive during a most unique time in history. and you sir were the pilot for a good part of the radio , round here . thanks for still being here evan .
	9:22pm Chowder: You are killing it EFD, keep up the good work!
	9:22pm Neal Adams: And sorry Barkevious..
	9:22pm Billy Idol: Caryn: I didn't know that about Terminator Idol. That would have been interesting. Robert Patrick sure worked a lot (just looked it up of course.)
	9:22pm Cal Zone!: @John. There was no 'internet' in 1982. It was a magical time when we listened to post punk on the radio, danced at clubs, and waited for imported vinyl and tiny indie punk 45's to turn up at boutique record stores. It's too easy to be a hipster today...we used to have to work at it!
	9:22pm Edley: This Bill Nelson song RULES. One of my faves :)
	9:22pm SteveL: Caryn: Er, I just outed my Bill Idol alter ego.
	9:23pm Mike East: Hey Matt - looks like Marco Benevento is getting around. Doing a live spot on WNYC today as well.
	9:23pm Cal Zone!: I've got this Bill Nelson on a 2x45 gatefold set!
	9:24pm john: @Cal: I was at school in rural Connecticut in 1982. It was damn near impossible. I've got the 12" of Flaming Desire--the double-7" is way cooler.
	9:24pm steve: hi evan!
	9:25pm Caryn: The breaking news on the tv is that archaeologists believe they've found the exact spot where Julius Caesar was stabbed to death. Kinda fits the mayhem show! @SteveL: I promise to ignore it and move on, if you so want :)
	9:25pm SteveL: Matt from Springfield: If you like The Shoes, get their new stuff. Heard it yet? Pretty damned good. (Midwest pop REPRESENT, please, thank you.)
	9:26pm Kat in Chicago: Forgot what a glorious synthy mess "Flaming Desire" is.
	9:26pm SteveL: Caryn: Nothing to see here.
	♥ 9:26pm efd: oh my goodness gracious, so many comments! I'm reading them all, but tough to respond during these kinds of shows. They (and you) are all appreciated!
	9:27pm john: New Shoes record is my fave rave album of the year, for what that's worth.
	9:27pm Holly in NC: @john - I was in school in suburban Connecticut in 1982 - no better. I was no Legs or Thurston, that's for sure!
	9:27pm Danne D: e tu cnn?
	9:28pm SteveL: efd: Watch your language!
	9:28pm Danne D: Interesting about the Julius Caesar news. Actually they had a thing on Caligula on History last night which kinda threw me, cuz, that was like actually someone from history and not an alien
	9:28pm Matt from Springfield: @SteveL: Really? Sounds like I should look into some "new Shoes" then! Thanks john too. @Mike: That's great! Must be the NY leg of Marco's publicity tour.
	9:28pm Barkevious Shabazz: Jaz came home!
	9:30pm Mike East: @Matt - looks like he didn't bring Joanne, though. FMU gets the good stuff.
	9:30pm john: @Holly, I lived in suburban Connecticut then, but at least unlike school, at home we were just barely in range of WNYU--another town or two over and it was gone.
	9:31pm SteveL: Got my Martha swag from last marathon. If you've never pledged won a WFMU DJ mix, you really haven't lived.
	9:33pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): The Christmas card Billy Idol sent me in 1992: http://tinyurl.com/idolxmas92
	♥ 9:34pm efd: btw everyone is welcome to keep me updated on the Orioles-Yankees game.
	9:34pm Holly in NC: @john - I just wasn't that hip. Though I did sneak into a club in New Haven to see the Ramones!
	9:34pm Michael from the Left Coast: Oh, I missed Flaming Desire (and the 12 inch too)
	9:34pm SteveL: I'm going to play old man for a moment: Remembering when band names like Killing Joke, Dead Kennedys, Throbbing Gristle, were damned near frightening to even hear. It was a very unusual time in music history. OK, I'm not old any more.
	9:35pm Cal Zone!: Question for Evan. What percentage of tonight's vinyl was purchased from 99 Records vs. Bonaparte Records?
	9:35pm Danne D: Why can I see Ozzy covering this song somehow?
	9:36pm Minnesota Jeff: "Lots of pizza and ice cold cokes!" Ha!!
	9:36pm SteveL: Danne D: I can see that very clearly.
	9:36pm Minnesota Jeff: Danne D - Whoa! Yeah, totally! I can see that as well.
	9:37pm john: Trying to think who I'd have seen in New Haven round that era. Stranglers comes to mind first.
	9:37pm Cal Zone!: Baseball Update for EFD. Top of the 7th Orioles beating the other team 2-1 and evidently A-Rod has just jumped ship and is playing for the guys with the crazy cartoon bird head on their hats.
	9:38pm Matt from Springfield: "Hong Kong Garden"!!!! SIOUXSIE!!
	9:39pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): I remember Night Flight showing the "Hong Kong Garden" video.
	9:40pm Barkevious Shabazz: EFD hittin the post.
	9:40pm Danne D: Why can I see Ozzy covering this song somehow?
	9:40pm Danne D: (just kiddin')
	9:41pm SteveL: I'm just going to say a band name out loud. Vibrators. (anything but "Pogo Dancing" Talk about a sell-out attempt.)
	9:41pm Cal Zone!: I saw Siouxie and The Banshees play at the Malibu nightclub on LI in 1980 or so. I was at the club early and watched her puke her guts out on stage during the sound check. She came out a couple hours later and put on a magnificent show! A real trooper!
	9:42pm UNICORNS: can't deny it . u 2 were there too.
	9:42pm Power Popeye: Love this Howard Johnson's color-scheme,EFD! Ever play any Off Broadway (the band) ?
	♥ 9:42pm efd: try to remember a time before the bombast and ubiquity when U2 sounded new and kind of amazing.
	9:42pm Barkevious Shabazz: Disco in Moscow!
	9:42pm Holly in NC: @john - see, I'd never even heard of the Stranglers in '82. My other high school era New Haven shows = Neil Young, David Bowie, the Police (with REM opening) & Rush. Rush X3, actually :-)
	9:42pm Matt from Springfield: This is early early U2, watching Joy Division record era U2.
	9:43pm SteveL: I did NOT see U2 during this time period--twice. I believe that was an error.
	♥ 9:43pm efd: those days are long gone, clearly, but try to picture them!
	9:43pm Cal Zone!: I remember when U2 was cutting edge! And they were great too!
	9:43pm Justsheano: Perfection tonight, Mr. Davies.
	9:44pm Danne D: And now you find yourself in '82. The disco hot spots hold no charm for you. You can concern yourself with bigger things. Catch the pearl and ride the dragon's wings.
	9:44pm Holly in NC: I LOVED the 1st 2 U2 lps. High school, people - & efd's right - they were absolutely not mainstream.
	9:44pm Kat in Chicago: Oh, U2. I liked them once.
	9:45pm Power Popeye: I love reading about Bono and Dylan hanging out and drinking together in "Chronicles Vol. 1"
	9:45pm steve: 75-85 - best music decade ever
	9:45pm Barkevious Shabazz: Nice white guy slap bass careof U2
	9:45pm SteveL: Nice Danne.
	9:45pm Michael from the Left Coast: U2 is mainstream now--but then no one sounded like the Edge and everyone copied him (see Junior's "Mama Used to Say")
	9:45pm Danne D: U2, Kat?
	9:45pm john: @Holly, sounds like I may have a few years on you, and just to lose my hipness cred, I saw Tom Petty at the New Haven Coliseum in '81. Split Enz opened. And I took some crap about playing the first couple U2 records in the dorm, yeah.
	9:46pm joe: 'ello folks
	9:46pm Danne D: LOL SteveL well I have to admit it's what I think of when I hear the word '82 'ello joe
	9:46pm Holly in NC: OOhh! I got to see Adam Ant in my home town jai alai fronton, that was the best! I wore my band uniform, which looked pretty much exactly like an ant costume! And the Romantics opened!
	9:47pm joe: hearing something makes me almost remember how important u2 wad to me at one time
	9:47pm Power Popeye: I'd take 65-75 any day. ---- I thought "Beautiful Day" was a decent late-period U2 song.
	9:47pm Matt from Springfield: @Danne: Wow, "Heat Of The Moment"! Had to look that up. (So a new "arena rock" supergroup actually touted the then-current view that the discos hold no charm for you! True for many people, but such a trying-to-fit-in lyric! :)
	9:47pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Time to bust out a Stiff Records box set.
	9:47pm Kat in Chicago: Me2, Danne :) Forgot I saw them at the Park West on their first American tour! Holy crap.
	9:48pm john: Whoa. Adam Ant at the fronton? OK, that's pretty damn rad.
	9:48pm Danne D: ayyyyyyyyyyyyy
	9:48pm Holly in NC: I can't hear the Lords, but I singing along anyway because I LOVE THIS SONG
	9:48pm Barkevious Shabazz: This lords is top notch.
	9:49pm Kat in Chicago: LOL picturing Holly in her band uniform at Adam Ant!
	9:49pm Cal Zone!: Early u2 shows were absolutely magical in the early days...and then they became a Vegas magic show. Joshua Tree was one of the worst ideas of the 80's. A shark jump moment.
	♥ 9:49pm efd: Jack Casady on bass on this SVT song!
	9:50pm Cal Zone!: I booked SVT at my community college on LI! They were swell!
	9:50pm Holly in NC: @John - And pre-show Adam ate at the Post Road HoJo's, a friend of mine may still have his spoon.
	9:50pm john: I remember (gonna have to ban that verb here soon) when U2 were written about as spearheading a [ahem] new psychedelia along with Echo and the Bunnymen and Teardrop Explodes. Probably still have the mags that promulgated that nonsense, though the writers and editors have presumably been too embarrassed to emerge from their bunker in a quarter century.
	9:50pm Danne D: @M_f_S That album is #GHS-2046 I believe. I'll double check when I get home. Didn't see 'em live until the 25th anniversary tour though (gotta love a 25th anniversary for a band-lineup that last 2 years).
	9:50pm Matt from Springfield: @Holly: Really, did Adam & the Ants wear costumes like band uniforms? Like George Clinton said, you could tell the hardcore fans at Parliament shows because "they dressed even crazier than we did"!
	9:50pm Danne D: (a little hard to get to the arena on my own when I was 12)
	9:51pm Michael from the Left Coast: EFD--make that the GREAT Jack Casady on bass in this song Always wondered why SVT didn't go further
	9:51pm Holly in NC: @Kat - lots of gold braid. And epaulets. They don't make band uniforms like they used, at least not in public schools.
	9:51pm As I Recall: I remember when Adam Ant broke his ankle on Motown 25
	9:51pm Danne D: jai alai was still in its ascendancy in '82
	9:52pm Majorette: It was all about the spats.
	9:52pm joe: this is kind of an amusing set as I am currently wait for my wife to finish seeing Morrissey at Radio City
	9:53pm Holly in NC: @Matt - Yes. Yes, they did. And of course I had the makeup, also.
	9:54pm Matt from Springfield: @Cal: Nice score! I wish colleges (and especially comm. colleges!) still booked the kinds of bands they once did! @Danne: Well a 25th anniversary lineup "is what it is". Might not last too long, but if you enjoy them it's your chance to see the band. If you think you'll have fun, enjoy it! :)
	9:54pm Holly in NC: Oh, evan, I can't listen yet, you cad!
	9:54pm Minnesota Jeff: Damn, this is such a great song. Adam & The Ants are incredible.
	9:54pm Matt from Springfield: Shout-out, to all you Scorpios!
	9:55pm Danne D: @M_f_S (lol already saw 'em - 25th anniversary was 5 years ago ;) Let's see Howe looked literally like Eddie from Iron Maiden. (This song sounds just like "The Metro") Palmer still was fantastic - really mindblowing.
	9:56pm Danne D: Like if the B-52s met "The Metro"
	9:57pm Cal Zone!: Love the 'S'! I want to go left right!
	9:57pm Minnesota Jeff: The B-52s with Mark E Smith on vox.
	9:57pm Matt from Springfield: Lobster Metro!! :D
	9:58pm Barkevious Shabazz: Is Vic there?
	9:58pm Majorette: The Fall with Fred Schneider on Vocals!
	9:59pm joe: left of the dial folks
	9:59pm Danne D: Anyway, I'm hitting the car now - will be back in a bit. :)
	10:00pm Danne D: Funk-o-phonic Funk :) Evan Davies loud is a little lower than Todd-o-phonic Todd loud. Now I'm out.
	10:00pm Matt from Springfield: Recreation working! I noticed right away you didn't have the "American Woman" riff as your bed music (from a hip hop song from after '82 you know! :)
	10:00pm Thierry: Didn't The Pretenders release the first single of the 80's, in January 1980?
	10:00pm SteveL: How long have those records been sitting on the shelf?
	10:01pm Matt from Springfield: KEILI!
	10:01pm Michael from the Left Coast: Hey how about some Tenpole Tudor?
	10:01pm Michael from the Left Coast: AH, I knew this was coming up
	10:02pm Cal Zone!: 30 years later. I'm still hungry and angrier!
	10:02pm Holly in NC: SOOO HUNGRY!!!! ;-) OK. home in 25 minutes...
	10:03pm Thierry: Just have a look at the playlist's first hour! awesome.
	10:05pm Minnesota Jeff: The bass on this song sure ain't hungry, its farting all over the place!
	10:05pm Caryn: Too bad I was too young to enjoy these at the time. The latest songs played so far came out when I was 3. At that age, I was just listening to classic rock, Zappa and Sha Na Na.
	♥ 10:05pm efd: Michael from the Left Coast, your request is next on WFMU!
	♥ 10:06pm efd: Love seeing everyone's excitement and enthusiasm, keep it coming! It's also great to see that pledge meter nudging up a bit, but WFMU needs more more more! Thank you!
	10:06pm Michael from the Left Coast: thanks efd--I will contribute to the pledge drive this week by the way
	10:07pm SteveL: Caryn: Zappa at three? Nice. Yes. Pledge! Where the heck else are you going to hear this!
	10:07pm Matt from Springfield: @Caryn: Zappa?! Finnish parents are more hip than Americans ;)
	10:07pm Andrea True: Got any coke?
	10:08pm Cal Zone!: Eddie Tenpole! Where's he at now?
	10:09pm Caryn: @SteveL & Matt: well, my dad was a record collector and my mom was a rock journalist, so me and my brother were raised on lots of music.
	♥ 10:11pm efd: ZOMG I got lulled into a four-song set! NEVER AGAIN!!
	10:12pm john: I can think of a couple other bands that were kind of soundtracky for me from the New Afternoon Show, but there's no way I'm going to remember if EFD played them or it was someone else. But what came to mind was Human Switchboard (you did play them, if I recall) and (are you all seated comfortably?) Urban Verbs.
	10:12pm Michael from the Left Coast: This Senders song is exactly the same as Crawl Up and Die by Stray Cats
	10:12pm Barkevious Shabazz: Eddie Tenpole works at an Aaron's Rentacenter in Croydon,PA.
	10:14pm Cal Zone!: Request for something from PYLON See Voo Play!
	♥ 10:14pm efd: oh, I play! Stand by!
	10:16pm Caryn: WTH? TV just warned of snowfall? I object! Luckily, EFD and his mayhem show are here.
	10:16pm Thierry: No sleep 'till the EFD show!
	10:17pm Destroit: busy board you have goin on EFD. Hello everyone!
	10:19pm john: You've got to figure Jake Burns single-handedly kept the throat lozenge industry afloat for a few years there.
	10:19pm Cal Zone!: Love 14th Street! Does Syl work at Aarons too?
	10:20pm Thierry: Hi Destroit! You got snow too?
	10:20pm Chop Scott: EFD! Killer program tonight---Cheers!!!
	10:21pm Barkevious Shabazz: Here's a request fer somma that Sister Feelings Call from before they became the kings of horrible.
	10:21pm Destroit: Not yet Thierry. Where are you at?
	♥ 10:22pm efd: Chop Scott! Once again I salute you for your speaker-repair skills, allowing me to blast tonight's show in the studio!
	10:24pm Thierry: Wher I am? North of France, pretty mild, I guess not like Detroit of Finland.
	10:25pm Harry McDevitt: THE SHIRTS ! The Freakin SHIRTS! another reason FMU is it
	10:25pm Harry McDevitt: and PYLON cold water ,please quick
	10:26pm Cal Zone!: Turn up the VOLUME!
	10:26pm EL: Athens had it all figured out.
	10:26pm john: Ibanez pinch-hitting for ARoid in the 9th just tied the game with a dinger. Good thing the Junkees only have the guy they just benched for five more years at $30M per.
	♥ 10:27pm efd: goddammit
	10:28pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Toadies used to cover Pylon's "Stop it" regularly in their shows. They recorded it for "Rubberneck" but it was one of two songs [the other being "Run In With Dad"] that didn't make it onto the released version.
	10:28pm Destroit: LOLAROD
	10:29pm Cal Zone!: yeah...godamn Ibanez! I hated him as a Philly and now he;s messin with my Orioles.
	10:29pm john: Yeah. Got out of the 9th anyway. Johnson has kind of stunk up the place this series.
	10:30pm john: I was hoping this would be what you'd play from Splash of Colour! I mean, I could have played it myself, but it's way more fun to hear on the radio.
	10:31pm Thierry: Is Mookie Wilson forgotten?
	10:32pm john: No, but he's not available to pinch-hit.
	10:33pm Barkevious Shabazz: Ibanez pinch hiting for Gibson.
	10:36pm john: O's just ran themselves out of the 10th. Andino caught flatfooted a few steps off second. I'm switching to the A's-Tigers.
	10:37pm t-bombhs: tight rope fits the theme of the night. lucky dp
	10:37pm mildred: U2 was great and so was REM... once upon a time not so long ago. Actually, it was long ago.
	10:37pm Destroit: Good choice John ;)
	10:39pm Thierry: Let's stick to 80's baseball to fit with tonight's show.
	10:39pm Caroline: Orange Juice Request over here!
	10:39pm Barkevious Shabazz: This Passions is tops.
	10:40pm john: Fernandomania!
	♥ 10:40pm efd: Caroline, would you settle for Paul Haig solo?
	10:40pm Cal Zone!: I wish it was the 82 Yankees playing tonight. They totally sucked!
	10:41pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Jay Johnstone!
	10:41pm Thierry: not much left of the china.
	10:42pm mildred: I also had it bad for the Boomtown Rats and (here it goes) INXS back in those same days, so what do I know.
	10:43pm Mike Love - Not War: Carl and the Passions?
	10:43pm Holly in NC: I'm back! I feel like I'm living a 'Losing My Edge' scenario, got held up talking with a Mtn Goats fanatic who freaked when I told I had the Shrimper cassettes ;-) THEN in car local dj played Trans-era Neil Young - spooky given that was 1st Neil show I ever saw.
	10:44pm john: Couple of those Rats elpees still hold up well. Not all of them, but Tonic and Surfacing both still sound great!
	10:44pm Colin: I liked Men Without Work.
	10:45pm Holly in NC: @Mildred - REM was beyond great. I just ignore the post-80s lps.
	10:46pm Pike Meters: Come on down and meet your maker Come on down and make the stand
	10:46pm john: @Holly, that must have been a pretty curious intro to live Neil. I loved Trans. Nobody else around school did, unsurprisingly.
	10:46pm Kenzo: Hey, efd: Having any issues with adding stuff to the playlist all of a sudden? Email me.
	10:47pm Holly in NC: @Mildred - sex. Michael Hutchence. Adolescence. There is no shame.
	♥ 10:47pm efd: no, everything's working OK so far!
	10:47pm CanAmProg: What we need right now is some sweet-assed Saga .... No one can stop us now ... tonight we're on the loose we put the brain on idle, and let the others take it for awhile ....
	10:47pm Chop Scott: Blast away! I am so happy to be listening tonight.
	10:49pm Cal Zone!: Endy's up at bat...this could be a miracle Mets moment twice removed....
	10:50pm Cal Zone!: or not
	10:50pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Any chance you have a Wipers tune on-deck?
	10:51pm Ken Temkin: Something's missing for you, you, you.
	♥ 10:52pm efd: Ken, I don't remember bleeping that song back at NYU!
	♥ 10:54pm efd: BadGuy Z, sorry, no Wipers. (And I know people mentioned the Call and the Alarm (kind of) earlier, don't have those either.
	10:54pm Holly in NC: @John - 1/2 show was Trans, 1/3 was acoustic. Actually a better & less disconcerting show then when I saw him many years later in Chapel Hill with Sonic Youth opening. Oh and, and, and I have a Sonic Youth at Hampshire College concert tee shirt ca 1986-87, that is some cred right there, I think ;-) Disclosure - I didn't see the SY show, I chose to stay in and write (gulp) an econ paper & finish a lighting design project, , a good friend brought me the t shirt. Cannot tell a lie. I've never been cool.
	♥ 10:54pm efd: Then again we also played "Too Drunk To Fuck" uncensored on the air back then. Different times.
	10:55pm john: @Holly, to paraphrase Oscar Wilde, the only thing cooler than going to the Sonic Youth show is NOT going to the Sonic Youth show.
	10:55pm some other guy: do you have comateens? "cool chick", perhaps? chin chin? It's funny how much this resembles the radio show I did nearly 20 years later. It didn't even occur to me that it was pretty much a throwback show at the time, but it was.
	10:56pm Torque: In a perfect world, Head East would be right up there with Styx.
	10:56pm Matt from Springfield: @Holly: Neil Young's live in Berlin show was kind of like that -- featuring his songs from Trans, but also featuring old Crazy Horse electric and Neil acoustic songs.
	10:57pm Holly in NC: Cool Chick! 2nd vote for! And Twitter requests still hold...
	♥ 10:57pm efd: How about "Get Off My Case" by the Comateens?
	10:57pm 4ever Jung: Neil's best were Harvest and After The Gold Rush, IMHO.
	♥ 10:58pm efd: Holly, you'll have to refresh my memory on the Twitter requests! I can't remember back that far.
	10:58pm Holly in NC: xoxo
	10:58pm Barkevious Shabazz: Cmon Ugly Nora...
	10:59pm Matt from Springfield: Wow, Robyn Hitchcock, pre-Egyptians, post-punk! Diff than what I expect from him!
	10:59pm john: Gosh, I played this Robyn Hitchcock album to dust, to raised eyebrows from virtually all and definitely sundry.
	10:59pm Holly in NC: @efd -Robyn -I suggested The Lizard, but Brenda is quite wonderful. And New Math. We Walk Among You, of course
	♥ 11:00pm efd: I'm sure you all recognized the distinctive drumming of Vince Ely from the Psychedelic Furs on that Robyn Hitchcock song.
	11:01pm Weems: What, no Dexy's? Joe King Carrasco? Blasters?
	11:01pm Cal Zone!: This Paul Haig was a biiiiggg NAS hit...as I remember :)
	11:01pm spandau: ballet ?
	11:01pm McAlpinist: Eric Johnson can tell what specific brand of battery is in an effects pedal just by the sound of it. That's awesome talent right there.
	11:01pm fun: boy 3?
	11:02pm psy: furs ?
	11:02pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): I love that version of "Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black)" that Devo and Neil Young perform in the movie "Human Highway."
	11:02pm Cal Zone!: Weems is in the house? Where's Pablo?
	11:02pm Haircut: 100
	11:02pm the: jam
	11:02pm Barkevious Shabazz: How bout something for all the spotty, balding Prefab Sprout fanboys?
	♥ 11:02pm efd: oh I've got all those with me, Weems!
	11:03pm under: tones ?
	11:03pm Fog: Hat
	11:05pm Holly in NC: @efd - heh. My drummer recognition skills are limited to Neil Peart vs nrt Neil Peart ;-) And you know I love the P Furs (another New Haven show)! I wore a pink skirt, slouchy socks, & white Reeboks, EGADS @BadGuyZero - me also @John - Next to I Often Dream of Trains, still likely my fave Robyn.
	11:05pm Julie: one of my fave Robyn songs!
	11:06pm Prof. Kwizzmo D: How many elements are there? (5 pts.)
	11:06pm Holly in NC: Hi Julie! The Lizard?
	11:06pm Me-me Loose: good show!
	11:06pm Caryn: Any chance of The Specials?
	11:07pm Cal Zone!: Joe King Carrasco and Tex just dropped a routine fly! Perfect!
	11:08pm Rickwaukee: anything from Think Pink by Fabulous Poodles and I'll just shit... wait, that's not much of an incentive is it?
	11:09pm SteveL: Please do NOT play anything from Think Pink.
	11:10pm Prof. Kwizzmo D: 118
	11:10pm john: @Holly, I'd add Fegmania! in there but could live happily with those two, to be sure. Now I think of it, other New Haven shows included Aztec Camera (probably '83), Lloyd Cole and the Commotions first US show, and The Three O'Clock (but we're in '85 now, at the late, lamented Grotto). Probably sockless. That's how I rolled.
	11:11pm Cal Zone!: The only band that really matters...The Bureau!
	11:12pm Buck Owens: "Ain't no money above the fifth fret."
	11:12pm Matt from Springfield: @Julie: Really? That's different from most of the Robyn Hitchcock I've heard--must be very early.
	11:12pm dexys: mid
	11:12pm Weems: Thanks Funk! Miss that Carrasco album. Remember it being wonderful! Wish I had seen him live! Also regret skipping Secret Affair at Privates!! The Bureau! Saw the lead singer at Ken Sitz Mod Monday at Tramps. Nitecaps?
	11:12pm Matt from Springfield: This Bureau rocks! Really Northern Soul vibe about it!
	11:13pm where: is hal the show ?
	♥ 11:14pm efd: I saw Carrasco at Privates - great! Missed Secret Affair too, though. No Nitecaps, I'm afraid.
	11:15pm here: comes tim sommer
	11:16pm Fuzzy: Got HSR?
	11:16pm The Changeling: My Medal!
	11:17pm Holly in NC: @John - I wore sockless docksiders, a yellow oxford & hoop earrings when my sartorally confused leather-jacketed died-black hair self clawed up to the front row of a Husker Du show @ UMAss. Lost 1 docksider, 1 earring, part of an earlobe, lots of blood. That's how I rolled ;-)
	11:17pm esg: esg
	11:17pm SteveL: efd: Ever hear of or own Spooner, now better known as Garbage? Drummer Butch Vig. They had a Graham Parker-esque wavy vibe.
	11:17pm Barkevious Shabazz: All of these "horn" tracks are pretenders to the throne that is "Beat Surrender.". In the slick English double gatefold 7".
	11:18pm Ken Temkin: @Funk-caught me singing along to the Chords. Hi Weems and Timmy
	11:18pm john: @Holly, now THERE's that elusive cred if ever I saw any!
	11:19pm bow: wow wow , adam , caberet voltaire
	11:20pm Arch Iver: Voodoo Glow Skulls - Hickee shared 7" A classic! <p><p>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SM6rBP3dEs
	11:22pm Weems: I feel The Raybeats are in the on deck circle!
	11:23pm Danne D: I'm back :)
	♥ 11:24pm efd: I think I might be veering back into the stuff you don't like so much before running through the whole Bob Singerman roster!
	11:24pm Holly in NC: Yay Yankees. I will say no more. :-)
	11:24pm Caryn: Few shows would make me stay awake all night, but this has been great to hear live.
	11:26pm john: Could have heard it at 4pm (did I get that rightish?) in 1982!
	11:26pm KevinBK: Totally great show tonight, keep it up!
	♥ 11:27pm efd: Thanks Caryn, I appreciate it! What time is it in Finland, 4:30am? 5:30?
	11:27pm Julie: this is gonna be repeat archive listening
	11:27pm john: @Holly, The Orioles called. They stole your Docksider.
	11:28pm Caryn: @efd: 6:27 a.m. Breakfast tv started 3 minutes ago.

	11:29pm Barkevious Shabazz: Yachts. Dats da col' rock stuff.
	11:29pm Angel Pagan: Punk!
	11:29pm Matt from Springfield: @Julie: It's an unmitigated thrill! (I wish this whole episode was in podcast form--listen to as one continuous mix! But as long as I have a 'Net connection, I can listen to this Archive and make it like that!)
	11:31pm Danne D: I gotta request, EFD: Keep it up :)
	11:31pm Holly in NC: @John - and they are welcome to it!
	♥ 11:31pm efd: Many thanks to Steve in Brooklyn, Wilson in TN, Jimmy in FL, Henry in CA, Barkevious, Julie in NYC and Neal in NJ for your generous pledges! Who else will pledge tonight? Your time is running out!
	11:33pm john: Yeah, well at least one of them might have been playing in it tonight.
	11:33pm Weems: Yachts, Ultravox, got to be XTC next!
	11:34pm Matt from Springfield: @Danne: It's normally not polite to issue demands to DJs, but that is one demand they want to hear!! :) I second it! I insist!
	11:35pm trixia in sf: enjoying the music tonight!
	11:35pm Holly in NC: @efd - Why is there no cat hair on your floor (gazing despairingly at my own floor)? Magic powers? Sorry can't up monthly pledge, would if I could.
	11:37pm Rickwaukee: arf!
	11:37pm Julie: bow wow wowwwww!
	11:37pm BULLDOZ'r: Attack of the slap bass
	11:37pm BULLDOZ'r: Attack of the slap bass
	11:37pm Julie: there's another Julie in NYC listening?
	♥ 11:38pm efd: Julie, yes there is! Sending this one out to john and all Chihuahua owners!
	11:38pm Holly in NC: Bow Wow Wow was much better than most people credit.
	11:39pm Matt from Springfield: Bow wow WOW, is that really their album title??
	11:39pm john: Thanks! He stopped snoring for a moment to listen.
	11:40pm SteveL: Bow Wow Wow was a greats show. One of the sweatiest.
	♥ 11:40pm efd: Matt, would I have typed all that in if it weren't?
	11:40pm Caryn: @Matt: exactly what I was wondering!
	11:41pm Holly in NC: Oh, yes.
	11:42pm Holly in NC: @john - any doggie dreams tonight?
	11:45pm Barkevious Shabazz: Dammi, had to walk Frank and missed ACR.
	11:45pm john: Actually, there's a bit of a hind leg twitch, so he may be chasing cats, dreaming of having four working legs so he might actually catch one, not that he'd have a clue what to do if he did other than accept an array of puncture wounds. Still, a dog can dream, can't he?
	11:47pm Weems: Love guessing what's next. After Fingerprintz...James white? ESG?Konk? Liquid Liquid? Heaven 17? Haircut 100?
	11:48pm Caryn: @john: maybe he's in the mayhem show spirit and is pogoing in his sleep?
	11:49pm Holly in NC: Pigbag? Bronski Beat? (long shot) ;-)
	11:50pm john: Great thought, Caryn, but for a pogo I'd expect that tiny yippy sleep bark that sounds more like a hiccup but is just a happy dream sound. We should all have one.
	11:50pm hey efd: you can't leave human league out .
	♥ 11:51pm efd: Weems, you were one song off with your guess(es). Stand by...
	11:51pm Holly in NC: @john - dogs need their dreams. cats & humans also.
	11:51pm hey efd: seconds for john lennon
	11:52pm mildred: @ Holly: I think we must have been trolling the Pioneer Valley at the same time. I saw both REM and Husker Du at Umass in the 80s, amongst others. The days of the good 'ol UPC and spring concerts that ruled.
	11:52pm Caryn: @john: maybe someone stole his Docksider mid-pogo, so he's not in a "happy yippy bark" mood?
	11:53pm john: Oh gosh yes. It's a happy sleep when he does it. I was really wishing something similar on all of us. Except maybe the cat-chasing. Just end up looking for the Neosporin that way. And Caryn, if that happened, it's fortunate he's only got three legs that touch the ground at the best of times!
	11:53pm Julie: I still adore Bow Wow Wow
	11:54pm Matt from Springfield: Haircut 100!
	11:56pm some other guy: great show evan! I really wish this was a weekly show, not that I don't enjoy your regular show; I do.
	11:56pm Holly in NC: @Mildred - I lived in 'hamp 1984-90. Love it. @Caryn - good one! :-)
	♥ 11:58pm efd: Thanks so much everyone for listening, commenting, and (in some cases) pledging! It's all very much appreciated!!
	11:58pm john: Actually, he's starting now, and a bit of a smile too. Maybe he just knows we're talking about him.
	11:59pm john: Great show, Evan--thanks for doing it!
	11:59pm Matt from Springfield: Oh noes, it's over! :( But, what an AMAZING show this was! :) Thank you SO MUCH Evan!! Have a good night everyone!
	11:59pm Danne D: Thanks for a great show EFD :D Have a good night everyone :) Don't go anywhere though as Keili is on next :)
	11:59pm On the Yazoo: Thanks.. I really enjoyed it.
	11:59pm Holly in NC: @John - what's his name?
	12:00am Julie: keeeep pledging!
	12:00am Holly in NC: Thank you, efd
	12:00am john: Oh, he gets called lots of things, but officially he's Mr President.
	12:01am Caryn: Yay, great show!
	9:34am Cal Zone!: Some of the Records heard on the Mayhem show were provided by 99 Records on 99 McDougal Street in the village. It is now an Indian Restaurant. Great show EFD!
	4:02pm Tushko: What a great set! I lived on the "New Afternoon Show" on WNYU in the early 80s.
