efd's avatar View efd's profile Favoriting

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.

  10:12pm
efd:

Hey Stingy, it's quite possible that was me - I'm a fan and I've definitely played them before.

Cheri, I have to admit that really isn't especially interesting.
  10:14pm

Hi EFD, the cheeseburger record is probably on the Adult Swim label on account of the fact that the guitarist Christy Karacas is the director of the animated show "Superjail" currently airing on the Adult Swim segment of Cartoon Network. cheers!!!! sorry for being a know it all keep up the great show
  10:36pm
Danne D:

Ponders how many women and men will be around after the rapture. Perhaps Evan has a song that can illustrate this for us.
  10:36pm
baker's dozen o'chicks:

that would be frenzied chicks, gone wild...
  10:36pm
cheri:

i'm back evan!! hiya danne,,,whats up??
  10:37pm
Sybil:

I dunno, I feel like getting in my brand new car and driving...
  10:38pm
Danne D:

Hey Evan, not much is up cheri. Any big plans for the rapture this weekend?

Hey there Sybil :)
  10:39pm
Over a Dozen Cuties:

She'll be playing cake or the sweet, forr shorr
  10:41pm
cheri:

  10:41pm
Holly in NC:

Hi Evan & everyone!
Who's going to butter our bread & sweeten our tea?
  10:41pm
Sybil:

This is pretty funky stuff.
  10:42pm
Danne D:

Hey Holly!

cheri why so sad if the rapture ends up being a gag? you can laugh about it on Sunday then
  10:43pm
Stevel:

Danne D: I've heard there may be about 120% more women than men left behind.
  10:44pm
Holly in NC:

Well, this kicks a**!
  10:44pm
randy in NC:

There is clearly no triskaidekaphobia here!
  10:45pm
Sybil:

I think you mean 1200% more, Stevel.


Me and Cheri, for sure.
  10:45pm
Stevel:

If you didn't notice, I stink at math. Hopefully, if I get left behind, there will be a nice lady to help me in that department
  10:45pm
Over a Dozen Cuties:

More like triskaidekaphilia
  10:46pm
randy in NC:

@OaDC - damn straight!
  10:47pm
Stevel:

I will also need assistance in, oh, about a dozen other tasks.
  10:48pm
Over a Dozen Cuties:

@randy (nice name ;-) ):

That's what *she* said.
  10:49pm
Holly in NC:

@stevel - If the rapture converts us to a base 8 world, there will likely be *15* fine women to help you out. How cool is that?

@Ssybil, I'm with you & Cheri, I think...
  10:49pm
cheri:

well to tell you the truth danne i just feel weary about the rapture,,i really don't know whats going to happen,,,
  10:52pm
Danne D:

Well work has me busy so I figure I'll read up on all the rapture literature I have on Sunday and read all about it.

Props to #K for that informative posting, btw.
  10:53pm
cee dubbles:

evan your bed music always hits me in the gut and makes me want to go on a crime spree
  10:54pm
Danne D:

Yankees-Orioles going to the 13th inning. It'd be great if there were a song that could sorta commemorate the occasion numerically.
  10:54pm
Stevel:

OK Holly, how many of me would there be in base 8?
  10:55pm
randy in NC:

What was the last Friday?
  10:55pm
Danne D:

Random shout out to Clay Buccholz for plunking a couple of guys instead of walking them to keep his WHIP down. Good job there. Of course he got the kind of run support my starters usually get, but such is life.
  10:55pm
Stevel:

13 innings, and see the short stop field a ground(er)
  10:55pm
efd:

I am not ignoring all this numerical female talk, just by the way.
  10:56pm
Tom Lehrer:

Base 8 is just like base 10, really.
  10:56pm
Danne D:

we're having fun EFD :) it's your show after all ;)
  10:56pm
Over a Dozen Cuties:

flirt! ;-)
  10:56pm

  10:57pm
cheri:

Danne D:

  11:40pm
Danne D:

Yankees-Orioles have gone to the 15th inning! (pretty amazing for a game that was thought to be in danger of getting rained out)
  11:41pm
cheri:

  11:42pm
Danne D:

  11:43pm
Ripping Off the Lid:

yanks can't beat the birds cleanly? more trouble right here in river city.
  11:44pm
Holly in NC:

I will now share that I'm a Yankees fan, born & bred.
Thanks, Dad! But, Dad's been dead a long time and every other man in my life has been a Red Sox fan, so we all CAN get along. Except during playoffs.
  11:45pm
Holly in NC:

Nice new Sloan.
  11:48pm
Michael from the Left Coast:

Nothing like a little vintage John Waite! And Tony Brock doesn't hurt either

  11:51pm

  12:01am
Michael from the Left Coast:

Cain was in the last lineup of the Babys
  12:01am
randy in NC:

@ Holly - I was in Garner on Friday, the town was plastered with Scotty signs. Pretty good voice for a 17 year old if you like that kind of stuff.
  12:02am
Wikipedia:

The Babys, "Cain left to join Journey. "
