	11:04pm jeff M: nice, the Mission UK used to cover this. Never knew the original :)
	11:05pm Sybil: Good evening! An evening that starts with dancing barefoot is always a good evening!
	11:06pm john: unless someone spilled spaghetti sauce or something on the floor.
	11:07pm Sybil: Spaghetti sauce makes it more fun! Speaking of which, Julian Tavarez has found anew home... with Boston's other team. The Braves are still in Boston, right?
	11:08pm Joe: Percee's on Stones Throw now? Those boys got one hell of a roster
	11:10pm john: Sybil, Yes, I believe they are. Got two against Brooklyn tomorrow. Go Bums!

	11:16pm Droll: hAPPY bIRTHDAY TD!!!!!!! I hope "U" get "ur" request,,,,,,finally!
	11:17pm Sybil: C'est toujours a cause des garcons. Wait... is Toni Daytona male or female? Both? Neither?
	11:18pm efd: Sybil, that is the million-dollar question! good news about yo-yo!

	11:23pm toni d.: sybil,,jess i asure you i'm a WOMAN hear me roar!!!!!!!!!
	11:24pm efd: raow!!
	11:24pm E.L.: Happy Birthday,,,,,,,,Toni! I always look forward to your EFD comments,,,, that's when the party really starts!!!! Cheers!!!
	11:27pm Sybil: mockinpott!!!!!!!! nene records... what more does one need? and the occasional (but not TOO occasional) Manny HR
	11:28pm efd: i think Manny's coming out of his slump, yes? Two key RBIs in two days! And with the Yankees playing the Rays it almost doesn't matter who wins. Almost.
	11:29pm Joe: Hey... it matters to _some_ people.
	11:29pm toni d.: thank you everyone. evan if you could please play "GOLDDUST WOMAN" by fleetwood mac thank very much efd=)=)=)
	11:32pm HotRod: I second the Gold Dust Woman request!
	11:34pm Laurie: It's pronounced Yeah-elle. Sort of. More like Yehl, I think. It's an acronym, not a "real" French name.
	11:35pm Droll: GD Woman for TD Woman! (Besides, Lindsey Buckingham rules and I want to set a precedent for B-day requests!)
	11:35pm Sybil: Acronym for what, Laurie?
	11:35pm HotRod: It's pronounced "yell". All she did was combine the words "yeah" and "elle".
	11:38pm Laurie: It's actually an acronym for "You Enjoy Life."
	11:40pm Sybil: Wooden shjips?! Give unto me a break! (> 1/4 Skansk, so I'm entitled to complain.) Laurie, I like that explanation so much I don't care if it's right.
	11:41pm efd: jeez, talk about a pregnant pause! Toni, will this do as a birthday request? I don't think gold dust woman will fly. (sorry, HotRod!)
	11:42pm john: why is it i've always really liked those guys but they weird me out at the same time? Is it the silent j?
	11:42pm Sybil: NO YOU DI'NT!!!! BBBBBBut you did! actually, this confirms my opinion that this show RULZ!
	11:42pm HotRod: That is correct, Laurie...according to wiki. I should've written that it's a "portmanteau" of "yeah" and "elle". Ah, oui oui. C'est bon!
	11:43pm Joe: I've always thought Wooden Shjips should have a song called "Crosby, Stills, and Njash"
	11:43pm efd: the silent j is annoyjing, i agree.
	11:43pm Jessica: I heard it was "Kiss My F--king Di-ck, Man" No, wait, that's someone else. [Yay, Hot Chocolate!]
	11:44pm Sybil: [Yay, Hot Chocolate!] Well, yes!
	11:45pm E.L.: I heard this a few weeks back on Joe McGasko's show and I wrote to him saying it always reminds me of the movie Detroit Rock City and the amazing performance by "Dickie" the bartender. It still does!
	11:45pm toni daytona: yes evan,,thank you for thinkin of me your verry sweet,,love ya=)=)=)
	11:45pm HotRod: Oh man! EFD's not a fan of Gold Dust Woman? I think I'm offended. Let me check....ummm...yes, I am very offended. wipes away tears
	11:46pm C: Happy birthday. You missed a great chance this morning with Hatch. He was asking for birthday requests.
	11:47pm Amanda: HotRod, did he make you cry? Make you break down? Shatter your illusions of love? I'm with you on that, by the way!
	11:48pm efd: it's Stevie Nicks that's the problem, frankly. I do like some non-SN Fleetwood Mac songs, for whatever that's worth.
	11:48pm HotRod: How young are you today, Toni D?
	11:49pm john: Tusk!
	11:49pm Jessica: Aw, c'mon. Sure, it's a school night, but just this once an exception could be made for bday Gold Dust Woman. ?!?!?!? Laurie: we can has lioncubs update?
	11:49pm HotRod: If Stevie's the problem, then how about Hole's cover version on The Crow: City of Angels soundtrack?
	11:49pm efd: (first time an FMU DJ has had to defend his dislike of Fleetwood Mac??)
	11:50pm Sybil: I often wonder if the people who are listening, but not privvy to the comments, have any idea what's going on. OMFG Hatch. I was the one who made EFD's class creds. Evan, the film was a-frickin-mazing. This is not the place (or time) for a review, but can we work something out?
	11:50pm HotRod: It's all going to hell.
	11:50pm Joe: Fleetwood Mac the British blues band is excellent. Fleetwood Mac the California Pop band, not so much. But c'mon, it's the lady's birthday, Ev.
	11:51pm toni d.: hotrod--i'll be 27 on saturday,,i'm goin to wildwod WHOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!
	11:52pm Droll: TD, sorry I jinxed your B-day request,,,,,,, I owe you summin'. I say double down on requests!
	11:52pm HotRod: Are you going to also tell us that you hate puppies, cotton candy and rainbows too??? For the love of Stevie!
	11:53pm john: Now, for me, it's California pop, si! British blues, no! One man's opinion.
	11:53pm Jessica: Sybil: seriously. I expected to hear half the country chortling at John's comment [Tusk!], but the streets, they are quiet. efd: I share your antipathy. I go so far as to shout at the screen whenever a "scarf over the lampshade" prop appears. Which happens in Buffy vs. Dracula, thus ruining the otherwise totally effing stellar episode.
	11:55pm efd: if there was a Trailmix version of Gold Dust Woman, a la You Make Lovin' Fun, I'd be all over it.
	11:57pm C: Maybe you could play some clips from Family Guy instead?
	11:59pm toni daytona: efd--hotrod & everyone this is my final comment of 2nite. thank you all for everything,,i love you evan & hotrod g'nite=)=)=)
	11:59pm HotRod: Is that you, Amanda??? WHFR??? I'll try to break up the pieces and go home.
	12:00am paul madvig: do you have any SPY SOUNDTRACKS
	12:00am Sybil: efd; Stevie Nicks wrote one single song that made me rethink my hatred of her: that would be "Landslide". I think Dixie Chicks did a much better version. And I'm too tired to argue this further. Every 1's a winner baby.
	12:02am over by here: where's the swag already? i didn't give dough to get swag, but i have a few choice items coming (i won the "Sound Art" book/cd) and i'd sure like 'em woooo!
	12:03am Joe: I move the discussion is over because it is literally impossible to argue with anyone whilst listening to Steinski
	12:04am over by dare: dis don't sound like no pollack....
	12:05am Sybil: Eric Burdon... anyone who plays... has my undying love...
	12:05am Amanda: Yes! It's me! I'm glad I got to hang out tonight, I'm going out of town next week for two weeks. Sybil -- It was the somg "Storms" that made me totally rethink my position on Stevie Nicks, and I did a total 180. Weird. Agreed about Steinski, for sure. Let's hug it out.
	12:08am Sybil: Joe, darn his Yankees-loving heart. had made me rethink everything. More later.
	12:09am HotRod: Haha, I meant pick up, NOT break up. Amanda, will you be hanging in the Heights on 7/23?
	12:11am Joe: Sybil, I have to ask... Are you down with Black Man's Burdon?
	12:12am HotRod: Oh wait, will you be back by 7/30? 8/6?
	12:12am john: I brake for Steinski. And I loved Storms too.
	12:12am Sybil: Well yeah, ... and OPP. ;-)
	12:13am Amanda: Will be there tomorrow, but then won't be back in NY until the 27th. If you're there you can pour one out on the patio for me. 7/30 and 8/6 are go!
	12:13am Joe: Yeah, I know you.
	12:13am efd: man, i cannot keep up with you all tonight! plus there are ants in the studio, yuck.
	12:14am efd: did i miss a Norwegian Lion update?
	12:14am Sybil: I brake for Steinski Who doesn't?
	12:14am toni d.: one more thing,,evan & hotrod thank you very much for your support & for thinkin 'bout me HAPPY B-DAY 2 ME
	12:15am HotRod: I'll probably see you on 8/6 then, since Matt won't be there on 7/30. Have fun getting away!
	12:15am seriously: what's up with the swag?
	12:16am john: Forgive my pedantry, but I'm unaccountably bothered by a band that has half its name in Greek and half in Latin.
	12:18am Joe: I believe in the left handed?
	12:18am HotRod: I heard that more swag has been going out recently. There were some hard-working volunteers at the station yesterday...maybe today as well.
	12:20am Amanda: Yay! I'll see you/Matt in August! I have it from a good source that a bunch of swag shipped this week, but I don't want to specify in case that's wrong or partially right. I'm just psyched to wear my hoodie on my vacation down South. Yay also for Spiritualized. A belated yay.
	12:21am john: Left-handed glory, perhaps. Could refer to David Ortiz.
	12:25am Droll: Last year I didn't get my 7sec Delay swag until December, just in time for tax purposes. Well worth the wait, though. It was a murder mystery TV spoof w/lots of FMU "Air Personalities". Recognizably FMU, even though TV instead of FM.
	12:28am Joe: Speaking of 7sd, have you checked your voicemail recently, Evan?
	12:29am efd: omg i forgot all about that!! thanks for the reminder, Joe!
	12:30am Joe: For the record, I knew that Fake Evan was fake within like... 20 seconds.
	12:31am efd: oh, i didn't even hear the actual show! I just got that message.... clearly i need to check out the archive.
	12:34am HotRod: This Frustration track is great!
	12:34am Joe: Yes, apparently there's an Evan "Impostor" Davies running around, somewhere. You should probably let your significant other know.
	12:35am dustin: love me some xray spexs
	12:36am efd: now if only i could figure out how to play that message on the air! HotRod, the whole Frustration CD is pretty good!
	12:40am Joe: A friend of mine turned a bunch of hilarious voicemails into mp3... he's a crazy audio guy though, not sure what program he used.
	12:43am Amanda: I guess you could use speakerphone, but it would sound terrible... I'm very intrigued by this whole 7SD conspiracy about which I know nothing. Guess I should head to the archives myself.
	12:45am a winner: evan i sent you mail,,oxox
	12:46am Joe: Okay, here's the scoop "The easiest way to do this is get a cable that is male stereo jack on both ends, Plug one into your phone (it should have a headphone jack) and the other into your PC. Then use a program such as audacity to record it"
	12:50am efd: thanks, Joe. I am hoping that since I am at an actual radio station I can take advantage of the technology at hand to play it over the air. We'll see.
	12:51am Jessica: Hey! The Bears' singer sounds like he's E "Impostering" Davies.
	12:53am Droll: The Bears is The Psychodots with Adrian Belew -- who are these Bears?
	12:53am efd: yeah, these are different Bears - i'll check the cd booklet in a minute
	1:17am Joe: I... have definitely fallen off on my Deutsch hip-hop. Wow. Spectacular.
	1:19am Jessica: The delivery = pouty-tacular.
	1:20am efd: well, that wasn't ideal but you got the idea...
	1:21am Droll: The EFD Show: Starting with a 7SD phone message, then the 70's, every week from now on. I swear I wasn't listening.
	1:22am Amanda: You mean that wasn't a remix?
	1:22am Joe: Aahahaha.... classic. FYI: the point of the show was Andy trying to call DJs who had, in his estimation, bad timeslots, so they could complain about them to Ken, on-air.
	1:24am Joe: Of course, we all know that this is the best timeslot ever.
	1:26am efd: this song has another 5 minutes to go. All in favor of cutting it short, say "aye"
	1:28am Droll: Joe, am I to assume he and Ken get the "Best" time slot? (I wonder how that happened) We know this is not "The Best Show" on FMU, so Andy may have some point. [GONG] I think I get the gist of The Fall already.
	1:29am Jessica: And yet here no one was, needing that there contextual hint. Oh, the jocularity! I actually did listen pretty regularly to the 7SD, until I called in with a streetfight story one day, having just read about my streetfight story in someone else's not-actually-fiction short story collection, but which story's delivery was judged "too polished" so probably made up. I guess I'm still scarred. [aye]
	1:29am Joe: Aye, aye. I don't think it's the "best" time slot... I think Andy is just a jerk. Bob Brainien was the only DJ who picked up, and he actually hung up, midsentence. It's funny if you like "cringe" radio.
	1:30am efd: well now it's kind of getting interesting again...
	1:30am efd: the song, I mean.
	1:32am Joe: great song, great title, great band name
	1:48am Jessica: Anthem to a misspent 1985. Aw, yeah.
	1:49am Joe: I was just gonna say... The Red Rocker, himself.
	1:50am Droll: Oh crap -- I thought you were about to play Motley Crue, not Montrose. I think my heart stopped for 4 measures until the band came in.
	1:50am efd: he can't drive 55 on a motorcycle either, apparently.
	1:51am efd: i'm pretty sure there's also a Saxon song that has that guitar-o-cycle sound.
	1:54am Joe: Avowed fan of Larry Norman: Black Francis. True story.
	1:55am john: Larry Norman rawked. Srsly.
	1:57am efd: Joe is correct - there is a sticker with a Frank Black quote on the front of the CD.
	1:59am Joe: What does it say?!
	2:06am efd: it says: "He was a lone wolf. He looked different, sounded different and he presented his beliefs in a way that rang true. Larry Norman knows what he's doing, and if you haven't noticed, you should."

Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

	11:46pm C: Happy birthday. You missed a great chance this morning with Hatch. He was asking for birthday requests.
	11:47pm Amanda: HotRod, did he make you cry? Make you break down? Shatter your illusions of love? I'm with you on that, by the way!
	11:48pm efd: it's Stevie Nicks that's the problem, frankly. I do like some non-SN Fleetwood Mac songs, for whatever that's worth.
	11:48pm HotRod: How young are you today, Toni D?
	11:49pm john: Tusk!
	11:49pm Jessica: Aw, c'mon. Sure, it's a school night, but just this once an exception could be made for bday Gold Dust Woman. ?!?!?!? Laurie: we can has lioncubs update?
	11:49pm HotRod: If Stevie's the problem, then how about Hole's cover version on The Crow: City of Angels soundtrack?
	11:49pm efd: (first time an FMU DJ has had to defend his dislike of Fleetwood Mac??)
	11:50pm Sybil: I often wonder if the people who are listening, but not privvy to the comments, have any idea what's going on. OMFG Hatch. I was the one who made EFD's class creds. Evan, the film was a-frickin-mazing. This is not the place (or time) for a review, but can we work something out?
	11:50pm HotRod: It's all going to hell.
	11:50pm Joe: Fleetwood Mac the British blues band is excellent. Fleetwood Mac the California Pop band, not so much. But c'mon, it's the lady's birthday, Ev.
	11:51pm toni d.: hotrod--i'll be 27 on saturday,,i'm goin to wildwod WHOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!!!
	11:52pm Droll: TD, sorry I jinxed your B-day request,,,,,,, I owe you summin'. I say double down on requests!
	11:52pm HotRod: Are you going to also tell us that you hate puppies, cotton candy and rainbows too??? For the love of Stevie!
	11:53pm john: Now, for me, it's California pop, si! British blues, no! One man's opinion.
	11:53pm Jessica: Sybil: seriously. I expected to hear half the country chortling at John's comment [Tusk!], but the streets, they are quiet. efd: I share your antipathy. I go so far as to shout at the screen whenever a "scarf over the lampshade" prop appears. Which happens in Buffy vs. Dracula, thus ruining the otherwise totally effing stellar episode.
	11:55pm efd: if there was a Trailmix version of Gold Dust Woman, a la You Make Lovin' Fun, I'd be all over it.
	11:57pm C: Maybe you could play some clips from Family Guy instead?
	11:59pm toni daytona: efd--hotrod & everyone this is my final comment of 2nite. thank you all for everything,,i love you evan & hotrod g'nite=)=)=)
	11:59pm HotRod: Is that you, Amanda??? WHFR??? I'll try to break up the pieces and go home.
	12:00am paul madvig: do you have any SPY SOUNDTRACKS
	12:00am Sybil: efd; Stevie Nicks wrote one single song that made me rethink my hatred of her: that would be "Landslide". I think Dixie Chicks did a much better version. And I'm too tired to argue this further. Every 1's a winner baby.
	12:02am over by here: where's the swag already? i didn't give dough to get swag, but i have a few choice items coming (i won the "Sound Art" book/cd) and i'd sure like 'em woooo!
	12:03am Joe: I move the discussion is over because it is literally impossible to argue with anyone whilst listening to Steinski
	12:04am over by dare: dis don't sound like no pollack....
	12:05am Sybil: Eric Burdon... anyone who plays... has my undying love...
	12:05am Amanda: Yes! It's me! I'm glad I got to hang out tonight, I'm going out of town next week for two weeks. Sybil -- It was the somg "Storms" that made me totally rethink my position on Stevie Nicks, and I did a total 180. Weird. Agreed about Steinski, for sure. Let's hug it out.
	12:08am Sybil: Joe, darn his Yankees-loving heart. had made me rethink everything. More later.
	12:09am HotRod: Haha, I meant pick up, NOT break up. Amanda, will you be hanging in the Heights on 7/23?
	12:11am Joe: Sybil, I have to ask... Are you down with Black Man's Burdon?
	12:12am HotRod: Oh wait, will you be back by 7/30? 8/6?
	12:12am john: I brake for Steinski. And I loved Storms too.
	12:12am Sybil: Well yeah, ... and OPP. ;-)
	12:13am Amanda: Will be there tomorrow, but then won't be back in NY until the 27th. If you're there you can pour one out on the patio for me. 7/30 and 8/6 are go!
	12:13am Joe: Yeah, I know you.
	12:13am efd: man, i cannot keep up with you all tonight! plus there are ants in the studio, yuck.
	12:14am efd: did i miss a Norwegian Lion update?
	12:14am Sybil: I brake for Steinski Who doesn't?
	12:14am toni d.: one more thing,,evan & hotrod thank you very much for your support & for thinkin 'bout me HAPPY B-DAY 2 ME
	12:15am HotRod: I'll probably see you on 8/6 then, since Matt won't be there on 7/30. Have fun getting away!
	12:15am seriously: what's up with the swag?
	12:16am john: Forgive my pedantry, but I'm unaccountably bothered by a band that has half its name in Greek and half in Latin.
	12:18am Joe: I believe in the left handed?
	12:18am HotRod: I heard that more swag has been going out recently. There were some hard-working volunteers at the station yesterday...maybe today as well.
	12:20am Amanda: Yay! I'll see you/Matt in August! I have it from a good source that a bunch of swag shipped this week, but I don't want to specify in case that's wrong or partially right. I'm just psyched to wear my hoodie on my vacation down South. Yay also for Spiritualized. A belated yay.
	12:21am john: Left-handed glory, perhaps. Could refer to David Ortiz.
	12:25am Droll: Last year I didn't get my 7sec Delay swag until December, just in time for tax purposes. Well worth the wait, though. It was a murder mystery TV spoof w/lots of FMU "Air Personalities". Recognizably FMU, even though TV instead of FM.
	12:28am Joe: Speaking of 7sd, have you checked your voicemail recently, Evan?
	12:29am efd: omg i forgot all about that!! thanks for the reminder, Joe!
	12:30am Joe: For the record, I knew that Fake Evan was fake within like... 20 seconds.
	12:31am efd: oh, i didn't even hear the actual show! I just got that message.... clearly i need to check out the archive.
	12:34am HotRod: This Frustration track is great!
	12:34am Joe: Yes, apparently there's an Evan "Impostor" Davies running around, somewhere. You should probably let your significant other know.
	12:35am dustin: love me some xray spexs
	12:36am efd: now if only i could figure out how to play that message on the air! HotRod, the whole Frustration CD is pretty good!
	12:40am Joe: A friend of mine turned a bunch of hilarious voicemails into mp3... he's a crazy audio guy though, not sure what program he used.
	12:43am Amanda: I guess you could use speakerphone, but it would sound terrible... I'm very intrigued by this whole 7SD conspiracy about which I know nothing. Guess I should head to the archives myself.
	12:45am a winner: evan i sent you mail,,oxox
	12:46am Joe: Okay, here's the scoop "The easiest way to do this is get a cable that is male stereo jack on both ends, Plug one into your phone (it should have a headphone jack) and the other into your PC. Then use a program such as audacity to record it"
	12:50am efd: thanks, Joe. I am hoping that since I am at an actual radio station I can take advantage of the technology at hand to play it over the air. We'll see.
	12:51am Jessica: Hey! The Bears' singer sounds like he's E "Impostering" Davies.
	12:53am Droll: The Bears is The Psychodots with Adrian Belew -- who are these Bears?
	12:53am efd: yeah, these are different Bears - i'll check the cd booklet in a minute
	1:17am Joe: I... have definitely fallen off on my Deutsch hip-hop. Wow. Spectacular.
	1:19am Jessica: The delivery = pouty-tacular.
	1:20am efd: well, that wasn't ideal but you got the idea...
	1:21am Droll: The EFD Show: Starting with a 7SD phone message, then the 70's, every week from now on. I swear I wasn't listening.
	1:22am Amanda: You mean that wasn't a remix?
	1:22am Joe: Aahahaha.... classic. FYI: the point of the show was Andy trying to call DJs who had, in his estimation, bad timeslots, so they could complain about them to Ken, on-air.
	1:24am Joe: Of course, we all know that this is the best timeslot ever.
	1:26am efd: this song has another 5 minutes to go. All in favor of cutting it short, say "aye"
	1:28am Droll: Joe, am I to assume he and Ken get the "Best" time slot? (I wonder how that happened) We know this is not "The Best Show" on FMU, so Andy may have some point. [GONG] I think I get the gist of The Fall already.
	1:29am Jessica: And yet here no one was, needing that there contextual hint. Oh, the jocularity! I actually did listen pretty regularly to the 7SD, until I called in with a streetfight story one day, having just read about my streetfight story in someone else's not-actually-fiction short story collection, but which story's delivery was judged "too polished" so probably made up. I guess I'm still scarred. [aye]
	1:29am Joe: Aye, aye. I don't think it's the "best" time slot... I think Andy is just a jerk. Bob Brainien was the only DJ who picked up, and he actually hung up, midsentence. It's funny if you like "cringe" radio.
	1:30am efd: well now it's kind of getting interesting again...
	1:30am efd: the song, I mean.
	1:32am Joe: great song, great title, great band name
	1:48am Jessica: Anthem to a misspent 1985. Aw, yeah.
	1:49am Joe: I was just gonna say... The Red Rocker, himself.
	1:50am Droll: Oh crap -- I thought you were about to play Motley Crue, not Montrose. I think my heart stopped for 4 measures until the band came in.
	1:50am efd: he can't drive 55 on a motorcycle either, apparently.
	1:51am efd: i'm pretty sure there's also a Saxon song that has that guitar-o-cycle sound.
	1:54am Joe: Avowed fan of Larry Norman: Black Francis. True story.
	1:55am john: Larry Norman rawked. Srsly.
	1:57am efd: Joe is correct - there is a sticker with a Frank Black quote on the front of the CD.
	1:59am Joe: What does it say?!
	2:06am efd: it says: "He was a lone wolf. He looked different, sounded different and he presented his beliefs in a way that rang true. Larry Norman knows what he's doing, and if you haven't noticed, you should."
