Holy man! Forgot about Paper Lace, the band from "Billy Don't Be a Hero" and "The Night Chicago Died."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:09pm
efd:

hey Jake, hey Ken! Yup, that Paper Lace!
  9:13pm
JakeGould:

Fun “Paper Lace” trivia from my life. First 45 single I ever bought in my life as a kid when I was like 7 or 8 years old? “The Night Chicago Died.” Bought it from some teen gal who was having a yard-isa sale in front of her building in Brooklyn.

And what building was that? *drumroll* Trump Village! The housing project that our new President’s dad built in deep Brooklyn.

That is all.

On Joe Belock's recent show, he and Todd Abramson and Ira Kaplan spoke lovingly of Billy Miller. I no recall which of latter 2 said this- "they treated their business of Norton Records like a fanzine". Aww.

efd:

I missed that show, unfortunately. Gonna have to check the archive.
  9:50pm
JakeGould:

@EFD: They seem to be a hip hop band from Australia, so maybe @ice is referring to that “Lordz of Brooklyn” bed music. And oh… Mr. Kave of said band has just opened a bar/pizza/art space a few blocks away from me in Bay Ridge. Small world!

I know I've heard you tell who does your theme song, but..
do tell again please!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:17pm

@ice, it's by The Lordz Of Brooklyn - the song is called "Saturday Night," from the early '90s.

@Chop Scott, that's nice of you to say - thank you.

I miss Laura Cantrell's show on the Saturday afternoon FMU airwaves.

(1) is this a Laura C written song? So lovely. (2) did Laura open for Elvis C at NJPAC in Newark? I was there, bad memory.
  10:52pm
herb.nyc:

Is Atmosphere covering a Laura C song????? I think she sang this at Monty Hall, w Michael Shelley opening, earlier this year. Maybe FMA has it.

Good evening, always a pleasure to come home to the EFD show!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:57pm
efd:

thanks Howard, always a pleasure to have you listening!

@herb, that Laura C song was not written by her, but she pretty much makes it her own as far as I'm concerned. And the Atmosphere song was an Atmosphere song.

EFD thanx for reminding me. I find myself singing it variously thru the week

By the way, the Rhys Chatham show last week was Amazing!
I couldn't go to the Oneida + RC show over the weekend at the church, but I heard it was exceptional!
  11:09pm

Exceptional if you're in to musical cults from Boston, that is..
Anyway, thx a lot for those tix last week..

Spk'ng of shows, I may see Ani DiFranco and comic Lizzie Winstead this w'end, at the ethical ctr. I expect Trump jokes, tho he has the last laugh. Alas.
