WFMU: The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from October 19, 2011

Listener comments!
	9:06pm Danne D: Hey EFD :) Hey Funk Fans :) Happy World Series everyone!
	9:06pm Monitor: scoreless
	9:06pm Danne D: Hope that Evan's show can drown out the stupid hammering they are doing here at the coffee shop :(
	9:07pm Stevel: Pledging tonight! Love a bunch of WFMU shows, but efd tops my list!
	9:07pm Playlist: Any hammering sounds here are smart.
	9:08pm efd: Thanks so much Steve, I appreciate it! Hi everybody!
	9:10pm Danne D: I'm sorry Evan, but I had to make my stealth marathon to the wonderful Ms. Amanda. Hope you can understand :) I'm sure that your loyal fanbase will come through with lotsa pledge. To the ladies out there, Evan loves when you pledge to his show. Just sayin'
	9:11pm Richard from Venezuela: Good evening Evan and all the listeners.
	9:12pm efd: You are dead to me, Danne D. JUST KIDDING!! The money all goes to the same place, thanks for pledging!
	9:12pm efd: Also, I love it just as much when men pledge to my show.
	9:16pm Richard from Venezuela: thanks for the last Notekillers live session. So great.
	9:17pm efd: You're very welcome Richard, glad you enjoyed it!
	9:18pm PB: With certain notable exceptions (off the top of my head, English Beat, Dream Syndicate, Flipper) the early 80s was a really, really bad era for pop/rock music especially "electro-pop".
	9:20pm efd: Did somebody say "The English Beat?!"
	9:22pm Danne D: Whoa Cool :)
	9:22pm PB: @efd. that was good timing!
	9:22pm Stevel: Uncanny!! It can not be explained!
	9:22pm Danne D: To the guys out there, I have it on good authority that the ladies who pledge to Evan's show like guys who pledge to Evan's show. Just sayin'
	9:24pm Parq: EFD just can't stop it.
	9:25pm efd: However, I would prefer if people simply pledge out of the goodness of their heart (or because they believe in what WFMU is doing and what it represents), not just to try to impress some girl (or guy)!
	9:25pm PB: Warching the WS and listening to efd, what could be bad.
	9:27pm Playlist: Danne clearly has an advanced degree from Pimpston University :-)
	9:28pm Joe B: early 80s were great in my view
	9:31pm Danne D: you ain't down with the Funk, you ain't down with Davies! Get down into your wallet and pledge!
	9:33pm Danne D: That's a friggin ALL STAR line up! :( I really doubt I can make it. I already snuck out for the meet-up last night and really need to work more :(
	9:34pm Danne D: Ugh - that meet-up is so good :( You guys gotta fill that place up!
	9:34pm G: Just how weird were the live weirdos, Danne?
	9:38pm Li'l Funk: Catchy sailor! http://youtu.be/FeISAc9j0WE
	9:38pm David: lol, glad to hear the explanation for why you thanked Marion Vierra
	9:39pm Danne D: about as weird as could be expected, G. My drawing on the suw website (that I did before the meet-up) wasn't too far off base ;)
	9:41pm PB: Mikal Cronin is great (not as great as Ty Segall) but great nonetheless. I really like this album.
	9:44pm Danne D: Ever topical - Evan manages to work in a 10/21/11 end of the world song :)
	9:45pm calzone!: A 'New Afternoon Show' classic - Mood 6!
	9:45pm G: 1959 and 1961 were the two really great post-WWII Lafite vintages as of the time Foghat wrote the song. It was tremendously expensive by the bottle. I imagine Foghat were having fun with thr fact that they'd been able to afford having it.
	9:46pm Li'l Funk: <internet stalker mode>You know, White Pages says there's only one person named Marion Vierra in the whole U.S. of A. Maybe you should see if it's her!</internet stalker mode>
	9:46pm calzone!: I purchased my Mood 6 45 @ Metro Records in Little Neck, Queens.
	9:46pm Danne D: redacted as I don't wanna get in trouble with EFD
	9:47pm Marion Vierra: LEAVE ME ALONE, YOU OLD RECORD FREAKS!!!!
	9:47pm Danne D: Marion Vierra is probably just a slick pseudonym for someone famous. Like Meredith Vierra or something.
	9:50pm David: Li'l Funk, I also googled the name wondering if it was a celebrity. Feel weird now that I know there's only one.
	9:50pm Aharon: Pete Galub: nice guy and good musician. Good to hear him on the radio.
	9:51pm calzone!: Old record freaks don't die, they just listen to FMU....
	9:53pm Amanda: This Jacuzzi Boys track is very good to grate cheese to. Hi everyone!
	9:54pm Danne D: Hi for a 4th time Amanda :D I agree, this song is grate
	9:56pm efd: OMG, the only thing worse than you saying "this song is grate" is that I didn't think of it.
	9:56pm Grater: But not cheesy.
	9:57pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Hi Evan & all! @PB - I must say I've never seen Flipper described as 'pop' before. I would LOVE to see your lp collection! :-) @Danne -That was cheesy.
	9:57pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Drat you, Grater
	9:58pm Grater: Poke.
	9:58pm PB: @Holly, clearly Flipper was hardcore punk, I just rushed the comment out.
	9:58pm Amanda: Settle down, everyone! About to eat my dinner and relax with a glass of Cupcake Vineyards Boogie Merlot.
	10:01pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: @PB - I'd still love to see your record collection! (Grater, no snide comments.) Amanda. I toast you with a glass of Pietra Santa Cabernet efd - thanks for jwc iii!
	10:02pm Oinophile: Cupcake Vineyards Boogie Merlot is only a few short rungs down from Chateau Thames Embankment Plonk.
	10:04pm Danne D: I'm 1/4 Pole
	10:07pm Danne D: given that it's a Rock Jock meetup, I presume you'll be wearing your Red Sox jersey, Evan?
	10:07pm Weights and Measures: That's 1/2 of "at 1/2 staff"
	10:08pm Stevel: So happy for what is about to come, but sad as well.
	10:08pm PB: How old is Dick Dale? Chuck Berry just turned 85.
	10:10pm Guessing: A few Wednesdays ago efd piled his Sox gear in a heap and poured lighter fluid on it, etc. etc.
	10:10pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Evan - Great link for your next Canada - centric show: http://tinyurl.com/3bumz8j (link is for vol 5, links to 1-4 readily accessible). Sorry I forgot to share last week!
	10:10pm PB: Just checked on AMG, Dick Dale is a spry 74.
	10:11pm Wiki: Dick Dale (born Richard Anthony Monsour on May 4, 1937) is an American surf rock guitarist, known as The King of the Surf Guitar. 74.
	10:17pm David: pre-TMBG John Linnell; I picked a bad time to pause the show! Will have to check that song out tomorrow.
	10:19pm paulyD: yeah buddy.
	10:21pm efd: what up, paulyD? Stevel, I'm concerned that Holly may not have heard the news yet...
	10:24pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: what news??? what what what ????!!!!
	10:26pm Robin E: Evan! No fair! I'm bone tired and wanna go to sleep but you're playing such mega fantastic music (including my favorite English Beat and Paul Weller songs) that I can't bear to turn the radio off and it's too big to put under my pillow!
	10:26pm G: @holly: evan's on mic! the suspense!
	10:29pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Evan - I retweeted that news from you :-( Yes, sad :-(
	10:29pm cheri: hiya efd & danne,,, evan i've been listening to the show and it's really powerful!!! also you know how to treat a woman!!
	10:31pm efd: oh! Holly I didn't even realize you were on twitter.... you must be incognito! Or I must be slow, one or the other.
	10:31pm efd: haha, sorry Robin, I just can't help it!
	10:33pm Li'l Funk: Check yo email-- I sent you something goodBro
	10:36pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Incognito. But just look for the lobstah. Mostly I follow food trucks. Excellent song choices, btw!
	10:37pm efd: To be honest, the song choices were made by Billy and Miriam at Norton! :) I'm just playing what they put out!
	10:38pm Stevel: That was fucking beautiful. Thank you. Gotta dance!
	10:38pm 13 Women: We knew you couldn't forget us, Evvie!
	10:38pm Parq: Oh thank God, "13 Women"! I was going into withdrawal.
	10:38pm PB: I pride myself on knowing a little bit about music but I've got to admit I've never even heard of The Renegades. Good stuff. Did they write Cadillac? Of course, the Clash did a great cover on London Calling. I guess they retitled it Brand New Cadillac.
	10:38pm Danne D: Hi Cheri. Wow that's such sad news, Evan :( Bittersweet hearing "13 Women" tonight :(
	10:39pm slugluv1313: ah!!!!! THIRTEEN WOMEN!!!!!! somehow perfect for sending out resumes . . . ! THANK YOU, Mr. Evan "Funk" Davies!!!!!
	10:40pm jaycjay: Of all the many, many recorded versions of 13 Women, The Renegades did it best.
	10:41pm slugluv1313: oh good grief but now just seeing that Kim Brown has passed away, RIP :(
	10:41pm ?: brand new cadillac originally done by vince taylor
	10:42pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: @jaycjayc - indeed
	10:42pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: If I could be someone other than me, I'd be Billy 'n' Miriam, I think.
	10:44pm john: Back from one of the best Jonathan Richman shows I can recall, and I missed Splash of Colour and Sandy Salisbury? Serves me right for going out on a Wednesday!
	10:46pm Danne D: I think I might know that Amanda in Jersey City :)
	10:47pm efd: Hi John! I've been waiting for you to return. I think you made the right choice, it's not like the Jonathan Richman show will be archived.
	10:47pm Danne D: Did Jonathan do "Government Center" ? :)
	10:47pm Danne D: (I'm partial to that particular Jonathan Richman song) :)
	10:49pm john: Thanks, Evan! No Danne, almost all newer stuff, with one excursion into Egyptian Reggae. Tiny place, couldn't have held more than 200. We were about six feet from him most of the show, except when he stepped off the stage and wandered around telling stories.
	10:49pm cheri: well i'll see you later evan & danne ,,got to go evan,,keep the funk up! like i said before "you and joe mcg know how to treat a woman, night all,,
	10:51pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Evan, can we hear some Jonathan? "Her Mystery".. especially resonates. OH BUT HUNGRY, SO ANGRY!!!
	10:51pm Danne D: 8( No Government Center 8( This is very Funky, Evan :) Gnight Cheri!
	10:51pm Stevel: Very jealous of John! We in the Midwest don't see Jonathan R. very much. One of my favorite performers ever.
	10:51pm Rickwaukee: Ack - make me feel so old - 30 years older anyway
	10:52pm Danne D: Sounds like a great show, John. It's always good when Jonathan is into it (which from seeing him like a half-dozen or so times isn't always the case). I'm looking forward to seeing John Wesley Harding next month :)
	10:53pm Stevel: Rick: I saw him in Madison, WI. You're right. Probably in 1983. Someone out there HELP US!
	10:53pm Joe B: glad to hear Jonathan is pushing the new stuff ... his recent albums have all been very strong
	10:53pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: @Steve1 - You should move to NC - JR plays Chapel Hill almost every Valentines Day.
	10:53pm Danne D: This is a good song to listen to while eating an entire pint of Ben and Jerry's ice cream :)
	10:53pm Conselua: Evan this show is phat! Props!
	10:57pm john: He was totally into it tonight, though he's been pretty engaged every time I've seen him. Especially when he was persuaded to come out 10 minutes after he said goodnight to do one more encore of Not So Much To Be Loved As To Love. I think the small venue really helped---last time I saw him was at the El Rey in LA, which was jam (and action) packed, quite a different vibe.
	10:58pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: I didn't think I liked the Fungi Girls. I was wrong. Tell the 'Pope' story!!! :-)
	10:58pm David: foghat won for best song title, but I think this band wins for best (or at least longest) name.
	11:00pm PB: That Fungi Girls track was good but it sounded a lot like Beefheart's Dropout Boogie to me.
	11:00pm john: PS Sad about Kim Brown. I guess now there are thirteen women and no men in town.
	11:04pm david: going through my vinyl since moving, happy to hear all these records.
	11:05pm Danne D: Enron Hubbard may be the best stage name ever :)
	11:05pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: I dunno, PB, I got that Flipper vibe ;-)
	11:05pm david: sub-Tonic lol I feel old and silly when I hear these old venue names
	11:08pm David: went to maxwell's for my first time this past saturday for a fundraiser for the Kirby Museum. Great music there and pretty nice venue.
	11:08pm cheri: ohhh evan are you having some halloween tunes next week?? i hope so!! sorry for this intrusion
	11:11pm Li'l Funk: had no idea Health & Happiness was still around, or is this a reunion for the benefit?
	11:12pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: YES! Where's Julie tonight?
	11:12pm Savoy "Hellbound Train" Brown: Where do you go after Foghat? Evan knows.
	11:12pm Danne D: I wonder what a mashup of this song and "Popcorn" would sound like
	11:13pm G: Cardinals beat Texas, 3-2.
	11:14pm Eucher: Brewer Sadness
	11:15pm cheri: thank you evan
	11:16pm Itch: A little Saigon Kick might put me right over the frickin; edge.
	11:18pm Fruit Pie the Magician: Hey, what was that band with James Iha, Taylor Hanson, Bun E. Carlos and ... and ... ???
	11:21pm efd: Tinted Windows! (and Adam Schlesinger from Fountains of Wayne)
	11:22pm Fruit Pie the Magician: TY Evan. Could have Googled but try to flex brain every third day.
	11:23pm JMD: thank you!
	11:23pm Holly in NC: @Savoy - I'm Tired, Where am I? ! Mike Lupica turned me on Savoy Brown. Where is he these days?
	11:24pm Lowell Dwaine Wanniger IV: Donnie Iris from The Jaggerz (The Rapper) !!!!!
	11:24pm ledzeppelinsucks: kick ass rock n roll reminds me of The Leaving Trains
	11:24pm Rickwaukee: A: 1982 (?)
	11:25pm gary: This station makes Kexp look corporate
	11:25pm gary: This station makes Kexp look corporate
	11:25pm Holly in NC: donnie iris 2 weeks in a row? oh my... btw, i'm still trying to get my own copy of donnie's version of 'glad all over'!
	11:25pm arugula: oh, another heavy rotation selection form the chom playbook.
	11:27pm Whopper Sr.: I'm hungry for a big sandwich. Man-sized. Satisfying.
	11:28pm ledzeppelinsucks: anyone like the Stanford Prison Expriment or Clawhammer or Lazy Cowgirls? Kick ass 80s/90s garage/punk
	11:28pm WFMU Marketing: Remember that great Hane's 'Glad All Under' campaign? THOSE were the good old days.
	11:28pm Stevel: My God. If you keep rocking like this I may have to give you more money!!
	11:29pm ledzeppelinsucks: I also like New Bomb Turks
	11:30pm Mandom: Swimming Pool Cues!
	11:31pm Stevel: lzs/New Bomb Turks=rock!
	11:32pm Colin: Feen-A-Mint works!
	11:32pm cheri: well got to split for real evan, ty again for a great show,,,it was really powerfull!!!
	11:32pm john: Dawnie rawkin' the burgh!
	11:33pm Holly in NC: @ledz - Lazy Cowgirls, yes. @Arugula - I'm having a dalliance with your cousin Watercress this evening. And did you know that your tony stepbother Purslane is going down low as Verdulaga?
	11:34pm Mitochondria: I am the powerhouse of the cell.
	11:35pm Nappy Cabbage: @Holly: I'm da funky wun. Piece, out.
	11:37pm efd: nuts, I actually had an MP3 cued up and I forgot!
	11:38pm Pidge: Good show, sir. Always exceptional.
	11:38pm ledzeppelinsucks: great melody mellow and aggressive song
	11:42pm Danne D: Yay team that wasn't ever owned by George W Bush :) (Actually the Cardinals were also my dad's team)
	11:44pm Holly in NC: That (really good) obn iiis song compelled me to go play Trenton's own Swingin' Neckbreakers "Get Down On Your Knees" - an all time fave. The SN used to put on a GREAT show..do they still tour?
	11:44pm Rickwaukee: You got your The Jam in my The Ponies!
	11:44pm Stevel: Fifty bucks puts efd to halfway. Just sayin'
	11:46pm efd: DO IT! (somebody!)
	11:46pm efd: And many thanks to everyone who's already DONE IT!
	11:48pm Stevel: OK, its not even $50, but $50 gets you a cool shirt!
	11:49pm Stevel: OK, it takes $33.76! Really! 50%!
	11:51pm Holly in NC: efd - please know I would if I could! My monthly 'fmu pledge maxes me out. I'm so, so sorry. Housemate threw his back out - no health insurance or vacation or sick days - I've got to cover mortgage etc - so yeah, I'm working 2 jobs & occupying Durham ;-)
	11:52pm Danne D: Be like Holly folks :) give what you can :) (thanks for your generous support over the whole year Holly) Anyhow, I have to pack up. Thanks for a great show Evan :) Have a great night Funk Fans :)
	11:53pm efd: No worries, Holly! You've already got the monthly payment going on so you're exempt from my pleading. :)
	11:54pm Rickwaukee: thank you very much for bringing this dB's business to my attention - awesome
	11:55pm john: Danne, as far as the W thing goes, LaRussa and Pujols were apparently honored guests at Glenn Beck's DC rally earlier this year. So it's Bush v Beck....
	11:56pm Holly in NC: ditto re dbs
	11:57pm Holly in NC: Someone did it - yay!
	11:58pm David: EFD, thanks (again) for another great show to keep me sane while working.
	12:01am Stevel: Right on!. Holly (and y'all else who give) are radio heros, and i for one, salute you! Great show! I build my week around it. No shit.

The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from October 19, 2011

View efd's profile

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.

October 19, 2011: Shock & Awetober week 3: A shining example of a typical Evan "Funk" Davies show. THIS IS WHAT YOU'RE PLEDGING FOR, PEOPLE!

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

It's week 3 of Shock & Awetober on WFMU! We;ve got live bands and tons of other special events on WFMU, and it's also our first-ever Silent Fundraiser! Sincere thanks to those of you who have pledged so far -- I REALLY appreciate it! However, it pains me to point out that with 3 out of 4 Shock and Awetober shows in the can at this point I should have raised around 75% of my goal. Sadly, as the thermometer up at the top of the page indicates, I've still got a ways to go. PLEASE use that form at the top of this page to make a pledge! Thank you.
You're also invited to vote for the theme of this year's Singles Going Steady show! It's coming up in less than a week, and YOU can help decide which 45s I'll be spinning. And guess what, you can make a pledge on that page too. DO IT!

	9:10pm Danne D: I'm sorry Evan, but I had to make my stealth marathon to the wonderful Ms. Amanda. Hope you can understand :) I'm sure that your loyal fanbase will come through with lotsa pledge. To the ladies out there, Evan loves when you pledge to his show. Just sayin'
	9:11pm Richard from Venezuela: Good evening Evan and all the listeners.
	9:12pm efd: You are dead to me, Danne D. JUST KIDDING!! The money all goes to the same place, thanks for pledging!
	9:12pm efd: Also, I love it just as much when men pledge to my show.
	9:16pm Richard from Venezuela: thanks for the last Notekillers live session. So great.
	9:17pm efd: You're very welcome Richard, glad you enjoyed it!
	9:18pm PB: With certain notable exceptions (off the top of my head, English Beat, Dream Syndicate, Flipper) the early 80s was a really, really bad era for pop/rock music especially "electro-pop".
	9:20pm efd: Did somebody say "The English Beat?!"
	9:22pm Danne D: Whoa Cool :)
	9:22pm PB: @efd. that was good timing!
	9:22pm Stevel: Uncanny!! It can not be explained!
	9:22pm Danne D: To the guys out there, I have it on good authority that the ladies who pledge to Evan's show like guys who pledge to Evan's show. Just sayin'
	9:24pm Parq: EFD just can't stop it.
	9:25pm efd: However, I would prefer if people simply pledge out of the goodness of their heart (or because they believe in what WFMU is doing and what it represents), not just to try to impress some girl (or guy)!
	9:25pm PB: Warching the WS and listening to efd, what could be bad.
	9:27pm Playlist: Danne clearly has an advanced degree from Pimpston University :-)
	9:28pm Joe B: early 80s were great in my view
	9:31pm Danne D: you ain't down with the Funk, you ain't down with Davies! Get down into your wallet and pledge!
	9:33pm Danne D: That's a friggin ALL STAR line up! :( I really doubt I can make it. I already snuck out for the meet-up last night and really need to work more :(
	9:34pm Danne D: Ugh - that meet-up is so good :( You guys gotta fill that place up!
	9:34pm G: Just how weird were the live weirdos, Danne?
	9:38pm Li'l Funk: Catchy sailor! http://youtu.be/FeISAc9j0WE
	9:38pm David: lol, glad to hear the explanation for why you thanked Marion Vierra
	9:39pm Danne D: about as weird as could be expected, G. My drawing on the suw website (that I did before the meet-up) wasn't too far off base ;)
	9:41pm PB: Mikal Cronin is great (not as great as Ty Segall) but great nonetheless. I really like this album.
	9:44pm Danne D: Ever topical - Evan manages to work in a 10/21/11 end of the world song :)
	9:45pm calzone!: A 'New Afternoon Show' classic - Mood 6!
	9:45pm G: 1959 and 1961 were the two really great post-WWII Lafite vintages as of the time Foghat wrote the song. It was tremendously expensive by the bottle. I imagine Foghat were having fun with thr fact that they'd been able to afford having it.
	9:46pm Li'l Funk: <internet stalker mode>You know, White Pages says there's only one person named Marion Vierra in the whole U.S. of A. Maybe you should see if it's her!</internet stalker mode>
	9:46pm calzone!: I purchased my Mood 6 45 @ Metro Records in Little Neck, Queens.
	9:46pm Danne D: redacted as I don't wanna get in trouble with EFD
	9:47pm Marion Vierra: LEAVE ME ALONE, YOU OLD RECORD FREAKS!!!!
	9:47pm Danne D: Marion Vierra is probably just a slick pseudonym for someone famous. Like Meredith Vierra or something.
	9:50pm David: Li'l Funk, I also googled the name wondering if it was a celebrity. Feel weird now that I know there's only one.
	9:50pm Aharon: Pete Galub: nice guy and good musician. Good to hear him on the radio.
	9:51pm calzone!: Old record freaks don't die, they just listen to FMU....
	9:53pm Amanda: This Jacuzzi Boys track is very good to grate cheese to. Hi everyone!
	9:54pm Danne D: Hi for a 4th time Amanda :D I agree, this song is grate
	9:56pm efd: OMG, the only thing worse than you saying "this song is grate" is that I didn't think of it.
	9:56pm Grater: But not cheesy.
	9:57pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Hi Evan & all! @PB - I must say I've never seen Flipper described as 'pop' before. I would LOVE to see your lp collection! :-) @Danne -That was cheesy.
	9:57pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Drat you, Grater
	9:58pm Grater: Poke.
	9:58pm PB: @Holly, clearly Flipper was hardcore punk, I just rushed the comment out.
	9:58pm Amanda: Settle down, everyone! About to eat my dinner and relax with a glass of Cupcake Vineyards Boogie Merlot.
	10:01pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: @PB - I'd still love to see your record collection! (Grater, no snide comments.) Amanda. I toast you with a glass of Pietra Santa Cabernet efd - thanks for jwc iii!
	10:02pm Oinophile: Cupcake Vineyards Boogie Merlot is only a few short rungs down from Chateau Thames Embankment Plonk.
	10:04pm Danne D: I'm 1/4 Pole
	10:07pm Danne D: given that it's a Rock Jock meetup, I presume you'll be wearing your Red Sox jersey, Evan?
	10:07pm Weights and Measures: That's 1/2 of "at 1/2 staff"
	10:08pm Stevel: So happy for what is about to come, but sad as well.
	10:08pm PB: How old is Dick Dale? Chuck Berry just turned 85.
	10:10pm Guessing: A few Wednesdays ago efd piled his Sox gear in a heap and poured lighter fluid on it, etc. etc.
	10:10pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Evan - Great link for your next Canada - centric show: http://tinyurl.com/3bumz8j (link is for vol 5, links to 1-4 readily accessible). Sorry I forgot to share last week!
	10:10pm PB: Just checked on AMG, Dick Dale is a spry 74.
	10:11pm Wiki: Dick Dale (born Richard Anthony Monsour on May 4, 1937) is an American surf rock guitarist, known as The King of the Surf Guitar. 74.
	10:17pm David: pre-TMBG John Linnell; I picked a bad time to pause the show! Will have to check that song out tomorrow.
	10:19pm paulyD: yeah buddy.
	10:21pm efd: what up, paulyD? Stevel, I'm concerned that Holly may not have heard the news yet...
	10:24pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: what news??? what what what ????!!!!
	10:26pm Robin E: Evan! No fair! I'm bone tired and wanna go to sleep but you're playing such mega fantastic music (including my favorite English Beat and Paul Weller songs) that I can't bear to turn the radio off and it's too big to put under my pillow!
	10:26pm G: @holly: evan's on mic! the suspense!
	10:29pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Evan - I retweeted that news from you :-( Yes, sad :-(
	10:29pm cheri: hiya efd & danne,,, evan i've been listening to the show and it's really powerful!!! also you know how to treat a woman!!
	10:31pm efd: oh! Holly I didn't even realize you were on twitter.... you must be incognito! Or I must be slow, one or the other.
	10:31pm efd: haha, sorry Robin, I just can't help it!
	10:33pm Li'l Funk: Check yo email-- I sent you something goodBro
	10:36pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Incognito. But just look for the lobstah. Mostly I follow food trucks. Excellent song choices, btw!
	10:37pm efd: To be honest, the song choices were made by Billy and Miriam at Norton! :) I'm just playing what they put out!
	10:38pm Stevel: That was fucking beautiful. Thank you. Gotta dance!
	10:38pm 13 Women: We knew you couldn't forget us, Evvie!
	10:38pm Parq: Oh thank God, "13 Women"! I was going into withdrawal.
	10:38pm PB: I pride myself on knowing a little bit about music but I've got to admit I've never even heard of The Renegades. Good stuff. Did they write Cadillac? Of course, the Clash did a great cover on London Calling. I guess they retitled it Brand New Cadillac.
	10:38pm Danne D: Hi Cheri. Wow that's such sad news, Evan :( Bittersweet hearing "13 Women" tonight :(
	10:39pm slugluv1313: ah!!!!! THIRTEEN WOMEN!!!!!! somehow perfect for sending out resumes . . . ! THANK YOU, Mr. Evan "Funk" Davies!!!!!
	10:40pm jaycjay: Of all the many, many recorded versions of 13 Women, The Renegades did it best.
	10:41pm slugluv1313: oh good grief but now just seeing that Kim Brown has passed away, RIP :(
	10:41pm ?: brand new cadillac originally done by vince taylor
	10:42pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: @jaycjayc - indeed
	10:42pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: If I could be someone other than me, I'd be Billy 'n' Miriam, I think.
	10:44pm john: Back from one of the best Jonathan Richman shows I can recall, and I missed Splash of Colour and Sandy Salisbury? Serves me right for going out on a Wednesday!
	10:46pm Danne D: I think I might know that Amanda in Jersey City :)
	10:47pm efd: Hi John! I've been waiting for you to return. I think you made the right choice, it's not like the Jonathan Richman show will be archived.
	10:47pm Danne D: Did Jonathan do "Government Center" ? :)
	10:47pm Danne D: (I'm partial to that particular Jonathan Richman song) :)
	10:49pm john: Thanks, Evan! No Danne, almost all newer stuff, with one excursion into Egyptian Reggae. Tiny place, couldn't have held more than 200. We were about six feet from him most of the show, except when he stepped off the stage and wandered around telling stories.
	10:49pm cheri: well i'll see you later evan & danne ,,got to go evan,,keep the funk up! like i said before "you and joe mcg know how to treat a woman, night all,,
	10:51pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: Evan, can we hear some Jonathan? "Her Mystery".. especially resonates. OH BUT HUNGRY, SO ANGRY!!!
	10:51pm Danne D: 8( No Government Center 8( This is very Funky, Evan :) Gnight Cheri!
	10:51pm Stevel: Very jealous of John! We in the Midwest don't see Jonathan R. very much. One of my favorite performers ever.
	10:51pm Rickwaukee: Ack - make me feel so old - 30 years older anyway
	10:52pm Danne D: Sounds like a great show, John. It's always good when Jonathan is into it (which from seeing him like a half-dozen or so times isn't always the case). I'm looking forward to seeing John Wesley Harding next month :)
	10:53pm Stevel: Rick: I saw him in Madison, WI. You're right. Probably in 1983. Someone out there HELP US!
	10:53pm Joe B: glad to hear Jonathan is pushing the new stuff ... his recent albums have all been very strong
	10:53pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: @Steve1 - You should move to NC - JR plays Chapel Hill almost every Valentines Day.
	10:53pm Danne D: This is a good song to listen to while eating an entire pint of Ben and Jerry's ice cream :)
	10:53pm Conselua: Evan this show is phat! Props!
	10:57pm john: He was totally into it tonight, though he's been pretty engaged every time I've seen him. Especially when he was persuaded to come out 10 minutes after he said goodnight to do one more encore of Not So Much To Be Loved As To Love. I think the small venue really helped---last time I saw him was at the El Rey in LA, which was jam (and action) packed, quite a different vibe.
	10:58pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: I didn't think I liked the Fungi Girls. I was wrong. Tell the 'Pope' story!!! :-)
	10:58pm David: foghat won for best song title, but I think this band wins for best (or at least longest) name.
	11:00pm PB: That Fungi Girls track was good but it sounded a lot like Beefheart's Dropout Boogie to me.
	11:00pm john: PS Sad about Kim Brown. I guess now there are thirteen women and no men in town.
	11:04pm david: going through my vinyl since moving, happy to hear all these records.
	11:05pm Danne D: Enron Hubbard may be the best stage name ever :)
	11:05pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: I dunno, PB, I got that Flipper vibe ;-)
	11:05pm david: sub-Tonic lol I feel old and silly when I hear these old venue names
	11:08pm David: went to maxwell's for my first time this past saturday for a fundraiser for the Kirby Museum. Great music there and pretty nice venue.
	11:08pm cheri: ohhh evan are you having some halloween tunes next week?? i hope so!! sorry for this intrusion
	11:11pm Li'l Funk: had no idea Health & Happiness was still around, or is this a reunion for the benefit?
	11:12pm Holly the (disgruntled) Yankee fan in NC: YES! Where's Julie tonight?
	11:12pm Savoy "Hellbound Train" Brown: Where do you go after Foghat? Evan knows.
	11:12pm Danne D: I wonder what a mashup of this song and "Popcorn" would sound like
	11:13pm G: Cardinals beat Texas, 3-2.
	11:14pm Eucher: Brewer Sadness
	11:15pm cheri: thank you evan
	11:16pm Itch: A little Saigon Kick might put me right over the frickin; edge.
	11:18pm Fruit Pie the Magician: Hey, what was that band with James Iha, Taylor Hanson, Bun E. Carlos and ... and ... ???
	11:21pm efd: Tinted Windows! (and Adam Schlesinger from Fountains of Wayne)
	11:22pm Fruit Pie the Magician: TY Evan. Could have Googled but try to flex brain every third day.
	11:23pm JMD: thank you!
	11:23pm Holly in NC: @Savoy - I'm Tired, Where am I? ! Mike Lupica turned me on Savoy Brown. Where is he these days?
	11:24pm Lowell Dwaine Wanniger IV: Donnie Iris from The Jaggerz (The Rapper) !!!!!
	11:24pm ledzeppelinsucks: kick ass rock n roll reminds me of The Leaving Trains
	11:24pm Rickwaukee: A: 1982 (?)
	11:25pm gary: This station makes Kexp look corporate
	11:25pm gary: This station makes Kexp look corporate
	11:25pm Holly in NC: donnie iris 2 weeks in a row? oh my... btw, i'm still trying to get my own copy of donnie's version of 'glad all over'!
	11:25pm arugula: oh, another heavy rotation selection form the chom playbook.
	11:27pm Whopper Sr.: I'm hungry for a big sandwich. Man-sized. Satisfying.
	11:28pm ledzeppelinsucks: anyone like the Stanford Prison Expriment or Clawhammer or Lazy Cowgirls? Kick ass 80s/90s garage/punk
	11:28pm WFMU Marketing: Remember that great Hane's 'Glad All Under' campaign? THOSE were the good old days.
	11:28pm Stevel: My God. If you keep rocking like this I may have to give you more money!!
	11:29pm ledzeppelinsucks: I also like New Bomb Turks
	11:30pm Mandom: Swimming Pool Cues!
	11:31pm Stevel: lzs/New Bomb Turks=rock!
	11:32pm Colin: Feen-A-Mint works!
	11:32pm cheri: well got to split for real evan, ty again for a great show,,,it was really powerfull!!!
	11:32pm john: Dawnie rawkin' the burgh!
	11:33pm Holly in NC: @ledz - Lazy Cowgirls, yes. @Arugula - I'm having a dalliance with your cousin Watercress this evening. And did you know that your tony stepbother Purslane is going down low as Verdulaga?
	11:34pm Mitochondria: I am the powerhouse of the cell.
	11:35pm Nappy Cabbage: @Holly: I'm da funky wun. Piece, out.
	11:37pm efd: nuts, I actually had an MP3 cued up and I forgot!
	11:38pm Pidge: Good show, sir. Always exceptional.
	11:38pm ledzeppelinsucks: great melody mellow and aggressive song
	11:42pm Danne D: Yay team that wasn't ever owned by George W Bush :) (Actually the Cardinals were also my dad's team)
	11:44pm Holly in NC: That (really good) obn iiis song compelled me to go play Trenton's own Swingin' Neckbreakers "Get Down On Your Knees" - an all time fave. The SN used to put on a GREAT show..do they still tour?
	11:44pm Rickwaukee: You got your The Jam in my The Ponies!
	11:44pm Stevel: Fifty bucks puts efd to halfway. Just sayin'
	11:46pm efd: DO IT! (somebody!)
	11:46pm efd: And many thanks to everyone who's already DONE IT!
	11:48pm Stevel: OK, its not even $50, but $50 gets you a cool shirt!
	11:49pm Stevel: OK, it takes $33.76! Really! 50%!
	11:51pm Holly in NC: efd - please know I would if I could! My monthly 'fmu pledge maxes me out. I'm so, so sorry. Housemate threw his back out - no health insurance or vacation or sick days - I've got to cover mortgage etc - so yeah, I'm working 2 jobs & occupying Durham ;-)
	11:52pm Danne D: Be like Holly folks :) give what you can :) (thanks for your generous support over the whole year Holly) Anyhow, I have to pack up. Thanks for a great show Evan :) Have a great night Funk Fans :)
	11:53pm efd: No worries, Holly! You've already got the monthly payment going on so you're exempt from my pleading. :)
	11:54pm Rickwaukee: thank you very much for bringing this dB's business to my attention - awesome
	11:55pm john: Danne, as far as the W thing goes, LaRussa and Pujols were apparently honored guests at Glenn Beck's DC rally earlier this year. So it's Bush v Beck....
	11:56pm Holly in NC: ditto re dbs
	11:57pm Holly in NC: Someone did it - yay!
	11:58pm David: EFD, thanks (again) for another great show to keep me sane while working.
	12:01am Stevel: Right on!. Holly (and y'all else who give) are radio heros, and i for one, salute you! Great show! I build my week around it. No shit.
