Listener comments!
	9:02pm EL: Aaaaallllll riiiiiight.
	9:02pm chris :: toronto: getting right to the point with television. evening all.
	9:03pm JustSheaNo: Great start, EFD!
	9:03pm Ike: Woah! Yes! NICE. So this means the Starting With the 70s feature is not always penis rock, then? Excellent.
	9:03pm CP: I was going to put this record on but I decided to tune into WFMU instead. Weeeeird.
	9:04pm Danne D: Hi Funk Fans :) Hi EFD :)
	9:04pm Destroit: hello efd and all the listeners.
	9:04pm Danne D: Ike begging Evan to play an hour solid of penis rock now.
	9:05pm AWS: hello Evan. Nice opening, happy anniversary Televison
	9:06pm Kat in Chicago: CP: I've made inadvertent psychic requests to WFMU on more than one occasion. Weirdest was a song from the Mary Poppins soundtrack that was stuck in my head for a couple of days before Mary Wing played it.
	9:06pm PB: Still one of the greatest albums of all time.
	9:07pm Thierry: Bonsoir! Time flies! Brilliant start!
	9:07pm Ike: Yes, that was a calculated risk. But I had to ask anyway since I am genuinely curious. I don't often hear the beginning of the show. @Kat, apparently Cecile makes lots of psychic requests.
	9:08pm Holly in NC: Hi Evan & everyone! I'm about to leave a coffee shop (I feel like Danne ;)) & then must stop & buy a bottle of wine for my "simultaneous listening to efd & the Duke-UNC game" Wednesday evening festivities. Back asap. Evan, you were kidding about the spoken word thing, weren't you?
	9:08pm Kat in Chicago: Ike: she makes lots of comments-board ones too so that doesn't surprise me!
	9:09pm chris :: toronto: Television: epic jams that have 0% 12-bar blues content
	9:11pm efd: whoa, hi everyone! still getting my wits about me, but Ike I can assure you that there is definitely variety in the Starting With The '70s songs!
	9:14pm Genre Police: I thought "penis rock" was a dick term! :-)
	9:18pm Ike: Duly noted. Maybe I will hit the archives and, uh, see how many of them make me gag....
	9:18pm Evan's Wits: Catch us if you can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	9:19pm Kat in Chicago: Do the Funky Robot!
	9:20pm Coordinator: Ike's main function is to tell various DJs whether or not he approves of their choices.
	9:20pm Sisyphus: I thought "penis rock" referred to this boulder I keep having to deal with.
	9:20pm EL: http://bit.ly/yFVNid
	9:21pm john: Hey Evan! I've never heard this Jane Kennaway song--it's great! Produced, I understand, by one Thomas Dolby. There's a comp of her stuff that I may need to look into.
	9:21pm Danne D: Hi Holly :) No coffee shop for me tonight though as I feel like crud :( I've watched NASCAR while listening to Gaylord, so I know from FMU as sports soundtrack :)
	9:23pm Danne D: So EFD are you going to have any celebrities in your phone room for the marathon? I'll be there too.
	9:24pm Thierry: Never heard of her either. Her voice is extremely close to that of the Au Pairs singer of exactly the same period.
	9:24pm john: Oh, and my gosh, does Gap Dream sound like the Telescopes. Which is a compliment, I hasten to add.
	9:27pm Ellen: When is the Vag-rock set?
	9:28pm RMH: Missed a few songs, as I was compelled to go check out that Gap Dream album. Great stuff! Thanks.
	9:29pm john: Thierry, hadn't thought of that, you're right. Just more pop than agit.
	9:30pm Danne D: NOW IT'S TIME FOR THE FUNK!
	9:31pm Danne D: YOU AIN'T DOWN WITH THE FUNK YOU AIN'T DOWN WITH DAVIES - truer words have never been rapped.
	9:31pm Coordinator: @Ellen: Wasn't the name Gap Dream a nod in that direction??
	9:34pm chris :: toronto: <sigh> #Torontopeople
	9:34pm EL: Leather Uppers! So jealous of Montreal.
	9:34pm SteveL: Damn. Tune in late and the boards go wild!! I vote for vag rock, if anyone is asking.
	9:35pm Ike: LOL @ Ellen! (Hope nobody takes me too seriously. Other than Coordinator.)
	9:35pm Colm: Barflys a great venu too!
	9:35pm Spoony: I believe in Montreal, Barfly is pronounced "Barf-ly."
	9:43pm PB: Another track that sounds like it was recorded in a phone booth. Is this some kind of trend?
	9:44pm Barkevious Shabazz: Tee pees. Best band ever?
	9:46pm Barkevious Shabazz: Clearly influenced by Television.
	9:46pm kate: love it! was just playing the lures earlier today, good to be on the efd wave length!
	9:47pm chris :: toronto: This whole set, young as it is three songs in, is blowing my mind.
	9:49pm Thierry: @PB: thought of riot grls more than phone booths,which are getting extinct.
	9:52pm Thierry: Wouldn't this Dan Melchior song make a super Holy Golightly song?
	9:55pm G: Every DJ all day working from the station has mentioned it, don't break the string!!!! :-)
	9:58pm Bill: Incredible. At the EXACT moment you said "TP's" I was typing the letters "TP" into an Excel file.
	9:58pm JMD: Thank you for saying 'You're A Turd' on the air. I laughed out loud.
	9:59pm Brian Kenny: Awesome young man. Think baseball!
	9:59pm New Yawkuh: Turdy Tree n Yur a Turd!
	10:00pm Bill: Brian Kenny....are you originally from Hillsdale?
	10:04pm Danne D: Looks like Catie, who usually tumblr's drawing of the Best Show is tumblin' a little for EFD tonight :) http://catiemonstrocity.tumblr.com/
	10:04pm Holly in NC: Phew, I'm back! Looking forward to catching up on the first hour tomorrow.
	10:04pm Barkevious Shabazz: Is that euroturd or you're a turd? Just for clarity.
	10:05pm CornerTavern: Evan, great show. Bring on the Rock.
	10:05pm pete: Tuned in just in time for 20/20- nice! Happy Birthday "Marquee Moon"
	10:07pm G: @Danne: That putrs efd in some rarefied territory, right there!
	10:11pm efd: Great timing, Pete! And a happy how do you do to you to Danne, CornerTavern, Barkevious, Holly, john, Bill, BK, JMD (glad I made you laugh!), Thierry, PB, kate, chris, Colm, Spoony, SteveL, Ike, EL, RMH, destroit, Kat, CP, AWS, and anyone I left out (sorry if I did!).
	10:12pm Holly in NC: @Danne- Sorry you're feeling under the weather! Nice Bare Wires, efd.
	10:13pm Danne D: indeed it does, G :) Welcome back Holly :)
	10:13pm Taylor: It's always drive time SOMEWHERE! On the West Coast it's actually just-got-home time, or fixin'-dinner time, or I-just-ate time. Depending on one's freeway choice. Which means it's time to power up the computer and listen to guys going "bah bah bah bah" on FMU.
	10:17pm SteveL: Just got word that, not only is Apache Dropout gracing FT Wayne in Feb, now Acid Baby Jesus in April @brassrailFW. Midwest is where its at--occasionally.
	10:18pm Holly in NC: !!!!!!!!!White Hills in Raleigh in April!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:20pm Destroit: @ Holly: are you a Duke or heels girl?
	10:23pm Holly in NC: @Destroit - Duke!!!!!!!!!!!!! My guys were hanging, but they're in a bit of a rough patch now :-( I suspect Randy in NC is a Tarhole fan, so good thing he's not here tonight ;-)
	10:24pm PB: I hate Puke, always have. They're getting their heads handed to them in the 2nd half tonight.
	10:26pm Destroit: I'm watching... go Randy! Going to raliegh later this month for the first time, looking forward to it
	10:27pm Destroit: Duke is like the Yankees, if ain't from Duke, you hate them.
	10:29pm Holly in NC: @PB, now that's a bit of an exaggeration! Given the pundits (probably correctly, sigh) didn't give Duke much of a chance, I think they've been doing a great job. And I love them no matter what :-) efd, this set is starting out wonderfully!
	10:29pm SteveL: Oh yeah!
	10:29pm PB: I know a number of people who went to Duke and they are the nicest people in the world but the basketball team makes my stomach turn.
	10:30pm Mildred: Thank you for making this week much better. It's really been sucking otherwise. Now thinking about the origins of 'Much' -weird word, no?
	10:30pm G: But what do you really think, PB? No pulling punches! :-P
	10:31pm Danne D: Hi to any mysterious lurking presences out there :)
	10:31pm Barkevious Shabazz: Go Duke Lax. It's how we roll.
	10:32pm Kat in Chicago: DEV U STA TUH
	10:32pm efd: Hi Mildred, I'm happy I'm making the week better! Thanks for listening! Thanks for checking in from the west coast, Taylor! SteveL, next one's for you, kind of. As is this one, kind of.
	10:32pm mysterious lurking presences: Hi Danne :)
	10:33pm G: DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR
	10:34pm SteveL: DEVIL'S TATER DEVIL'S TATER...
	10:34pm dave: DEV UH STAY TUH DEV UH STAY TUH DEV UH STAY TUH DEV UH STAY TUH DEV UH STAY TUH
	10:34pm Danne D: Another brilliant Catie drawing that has me wondering if EFD has a mustache now: http://catiemonstrocity.tumblr.com/post/17301882080/i-dont-think-i-understand-whats-going-on-at-wfmu
	10:35pm Holly in NC: @Barkevious - Be very glad you didn't live in Durham during that whole mess. Devastator!
	10:35pm dave: is there anybody listening NOT throwing up the horns and going "DEV UH STAY TUH"?
	10:35pm Barkevious Shabazz: Commentator
	10:35pm G: I'm thinking they repeat that word 666 times.
	10:35pm SteveL: dave: No.
	10:36pm PB: @G, good one. All kidding aside, how long does this go on?
	10:36pm Danne D: Here's a real live picture of EFD in said Submarine :) Also note that Evan is totally adoptable: http://www.flickr.com/photos/wfmu/3270336933/in/set-72157603873576097
	10:37pm G: a minute or two more. efd knows to the second
	10:37pm SteveL: Hey Jude for the new generation
	10:37pm Danne D: @G - might have to go back and do a Dev-uh-state-uh count :)
	10:37pm efd: 30 seconds to go!
	10:37pm efd: DEMONSTRATOR! DEMONSTRATOR! DEMONSTRATOR! DEMONSTRATOR! DEMONSTRATOR!
	10:38pm Danne D: I think Evan blew the perfect song to play during the Ticket Bubble Bath :)
	10:38pm Jim: loving this episode of TEFDS
	10:38pm dave: it goes on 'TIL YR DEAD.
	10:38pm G: WHEWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:39pm PB: As one of my muso friends would say, not exactly Simon & Garfunkel is it?
	10:39pm SteveL: Circle the wagons!
	10:39pm Barkevious Shabazz: @Holly I support Duke. It's nice to see the ap kids do well on the athletic field.
	10:40pm SteveL: Great song, with such an early 80s vibe in the chorus.
	10:41pm Danne D: @mysterious lurking presences I still think that was an awesome drawing that Catie did :)
	10:41pm John L.: I am posting "Devastator" to my FB page. Curious to see the reaction of my friends.
	10:42pm Destroit: Duke might creep in this thing late. I really didn't get the appeal of the devastator track. Hmm.
	10:45pm SteveL: Destroit: Perhaps you should give it another listen?
	10:46pm Danne D: EFD kicks ass on drums, btw
	10:46pm PB: Are you giving away tickets for Pharaoh Overlord?
	10:47pm Danne D: Recommended to Mysterious Lurking Presences (Hoof N Mouth) and to all presences on Sunday Night March 4 :)
	10:47pm Danne D: I wonder if EFD will do Devastator as his Hoof N Mouth song.
	10:48pm G: Would he make it through all 666 reps w/o being dragged off the stage???
	10:49pm Destroit: Oh, for sure Steve. I was watching basketball, so the devastator was basically background music. I'll give it another whirl, with headphones, and see what happens!
	10:49pm Danne D: @G probably not - Hoof N Mouth has had similar song endings in the past
	10:50pm SteveL: Destroit: If you caught the last 60 secs, then you have a pretty good idea.
	10:50pm PB: @Destroit, you don't want to do that. once in a lifetime is more than enough.
	10:50pm Destroit: Note: G's 666 theory is spot on.
	10:50pm G: So he should road test it. Success or failure, it would be compelling.
	10:53pm Danne D: Catie was mega quick with her EFD correction :) http://catiemonstrocity.tumblr.com
	10:53pm Holly in NC: Suddenly, whenever I refresh the espn website, it goes BACK in time. Odd.
	10:55pm Holly in NC: The Bats are sounding wonderful.
	10:55pm Danne D: @Holly see if you can get the Whalers back in Hartford - please refresh some more. Thanks :)
	10:56pm efd: EL, are you still out there? I think this mustache business is your fault.
	10:57pm sean in 'cuse: Just love the bats - thank you!
	10:59pm Holly in NC: @Danne - With all the respect in the world, no way ;-)
	11:00pm Destroit: Whalers had, by far, the best after goal celebration song ever. Cue the brass! Also had the best logo. Thanks for reminders Danne.
	11:00pm G: It's kind of a 70s stache, no?? Maybe that's the clue.
	11:01pm Holly in NC: COWBELL!
	11:01pm Destroit: @g: whalers logo?
	11:06pm ADL: If only you used Yiddish every show, Evan!
	11:08pm Destroit: HW is a whales tail, here comes duke.
	11:12pm G: Listen closely to the bubblebath theme, who knows if its days are numbered or not! And Maria Muldaur's camel never gets enough sleep any more.
	11:13pm PB: NC choked that one away, big time.
	11:13pm Destroit: Happy For you Holly, unreal!
	11:14pm Holly in NC: Holy sh*t. Was NOT expecting that!
	11:14pm PB: Amazing shot but terrible defense. Why didn't the defender have his hands up?
	11:15pm stuart in seattle: yay! disco inferno. great stuff, that!
	11:16pm Destroit: Didn't wanna foul PB, my best guess.
	11:16pm Holly in NC: Now the end of season game @ Duke is going to be fierce. Fiercer. And the Giants won, too, it has been a good week in Holly sports world!
	11:18pm Thierry: With inferno like this, who needs paradise.
	11:19pm efd: who's got an "a" with an umlaut over it they can give me so I can list this song properly?
	11:19pm Destroit: Let's get back to the Whalers logo...jk, going to sleep. Love everybody, thanks efd, good night.
	11:20pm Destroit: And now you drop an Imler track! Tryin' to sleep damnit. Great show efd.
	11:21pm SteveL: ä
	11:21pm G: ä
	11:21pm efd: thanks Steve and G/ You're welcome, destroit! :)
	11:21pm G: Does that make us the a-umlaut holes?
	11:22pm Michael from the Left Coast: For a second there I thought it was Dan Hartman!
	11:22pm Holly in NC: ä
	11:23pm Holly in NC: Apparently we ARE slower down South.
	11:23pm G: DEVÄSTÄTOR
	11:25pm Gary Wright: My love is alive and living in my chest hair.
	11:27pm Danne D: @Destroit Brass Bonanza :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bwZbWZhAaM
	11:29pm Dänne D: Umläuts for everyone!
	11:32pm Hölly in NC: Dänne, I löve yöu, yöu are sö inclusive!
	11:33pm Dänne D: Thänks :)
	11:33pm Hölly in NC: äwesome!
	11:34pm efd: weird, first time ever that I play Rammstein and Bryce shows up.
	11:36pm Augie Rios: Du hast Santa Claus?
	11:36pm Destroit: Yes! Stay asleep was great. Thanks Danne for the brass bonanza link. Every sega goal circa 1992 by dineen, Francis, verbeek, and and occasionally responsible Randy ladoceur appreciates you!
	11:36pm NaterTot: Dance track ov Du Hast?
	11:36pm Dänne D: I think Rammstein is the music used to conjure up Bryce
	11:37pm SteveL: Rammstein is not to be used carelessly.
	11:38pm G: @efd: "FMU Synchronicity", with an another example given early in the show by kate at 9:46...
	11:39pm NaterTot: Makes me wanna drive a large German automobile at inappropriate speeds.
	11:40pm SteveL: I love Rammstein more than propriety allows me to admit. Great music to write grants to, although I have no idea why.
	11:42pm Dänne D: I think my nephew is a huge Rammstein fan
	11:44pm Destroit: I'm not 'into' Rammstein, but I've yet to hear a bad Rammstein song.
	11:44pm T-Zero: @SteveL: Me too, and Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft
	11:44pm AD: in re: cheezeburger: chïrp chïrp
	11:45pm chris m.: http://cheezburger.com/View/1248762624
	11:46pm Dachskat: Kann ich habe rammsburger LOLz
	11:47pm SteveL: T-Zero: Nice tip. I will explore when I'm not listening to terrific radio.
	11:50pm Hölly in NC: "German rock band Rammstein are bringing over 50 tons of equipment to set the stage on fire for their shows in Russia" http://tinyurl.com/7l7srlt
	11:50pm T-Zero: @SteveL: I actually prefer DAF...
	11:50pm Deeeeeeeeee: Where is duhastcheezeburger.com?! Does it really exist?? I guffawed in the car upon hearing that. Almost lost my Frosty!
	11:52pm SteveL: T-Zero: Do you suggest a starting point for DAF?
	11:53pm Hölly in NC: Loving this last(?) set, efd!
	11:53pm SteveL: Holly: Fire is good. Checking flights to Moscow.
	11:56pm T-Zero: Their first album was in 1979. But I'd start with Die Kleinen Und Die Bösen (The Little and the Evil) and then their later 1998 album Gold Und Liebe (Gold and Love), then in 1982 Für immer
	11:57pm Dänne D: Yay Adam Warrock :)
	11:57pm SteveL: Noted! Thanks
	11:57pm efd: Thanks for listening and commenting, everyone! Happy DAF exploring, Steve!
	11:58pm T-Zero: @SteveL: >> Wiki http://tinyurl.com/6tah6sc
	11:58pm Dänne D: Have a good night everyone :D
	12:07am T-Zero: @SteveL: I have the dates messed up, but the Wiki link has the correct dates.
	12:15am T-Zero: @SteveL: Gold Und Liebe (Gold and Love) is my favorite
	8:35pm glenn: devastator! devastator! i love the archives.

	9:02pm chris :: toronto: getting right to the point with television. evening all.
	9:03pm JustSheaNo: Great start, EFD!
	9:03pm Ike: Woah! Yes! NICE. So this means the Starting With the 70s feature is not always penis rock, then? Excellent.
	9:03pm CP: I was going to put this record on but I decided to tune into WFMU instead. Weeeeird.
	9:04pm Danne D: Hi Funk Fans :) Hi EFD :)
	9:04pm Destroit: hello efd and all the listeners.
	9:04pm Danne D: Ike begging Evan to play an hour solid of penis rock now.
	9:05pm AWS: hello Evan. Nice opening, happy anniversary Televison
	9:06pm Kat in Chicago: CP: I've made inadvertent psychic requests to WFMU on more than one occasion. Weirdest was a song from the Mary Poppins soundtrack that was stuck in my head for a couple of days before Mary Wing played it.
	9:06pm PB: Still one of the greatest albums of all time.
	9:07pm Thierry: Bonsoir! Time flies! Brilliant start!
	9:07pm Ike: Yes, that was a calculated risk. But I had to ask anyway since I am genuinely curious. I don't often hear the beginning of the show. @Kat, apparently Cecile makes lots of psychic requests.
	9:08pm Holly in NC: Hi Evan & everyone! I'm about to leave a coffee shop (I feel like Danne ;)) & then must stop & buy a bottle of wine for my "simultaneous listening to efd & the Duke-UNC game" Wednesday evening festivities. Back asap. Evan, you were kidding about the spoken word thing, weren't you?
	9:08pm Kat in Chicago: Ike: she makes lots of comments-board ones too so that doesn't surprise me!
	9:09pm chris :: toronto: Television: epic jams that have 0% 12-bar blues content
	9:11pm efd: whoa, hi everyone! still getting my wits about me, but Ike I can assure you that there is definitely variety in the Starting With The '70s songs!
	9:14pm Genre Police: I thought "penis rock" was a dick term! :-)
	9:18pm Ike: Duly noted. Maybe I will hit the archives and, uh, see how many of them make me gag....
	9:18pm Evan's Wits: Catch us if you can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	9:19pm Kat in Chicago: Do the Funky Robot!
	9:20pm Coordinator: Ike's main function is to tell various DJs whether or not he approves of their choices.
	9:20pm Sisyphus: I thought "penis rock" referred to this boulder I keep having to deal with.
	9:20pm EL: http://bit.ly/yFVNid
	9:21pm john: Hey Evan! I've never heard this Jane Kennaway song--it's great! Produced, I understand, by one Thomas Dolby. There's a comp of her stuff that I may need to look into.
	9:21pm Danne D: Hi Holly :) No coffee shop for me tonight though as I feel like crud :( I've watched NASCAR while listening to Gaylord, so I know from FMU as sports soundtrack :)
	9:23pm Danne D: So EFD are you going to have any celebrities in your phone room for the marathon? I'll be there too.
	9:24pm Thierry: Never heard of her either. Her voice is extremely close to that of the Au Pairs singer of exactly the same period.
	9:24pm john: Oh, and my gosh, does Gap Dream sound like the Telescopes. Which is a compliment, I hasten to add.
	9:27pm Ellen: When is the Vag-rock set?
	9:28pm RMH: Missed a few songs, as I was compelled to go check out that Gap Dream album. Great stuff! Thanks.
	9:29pm john: Thierry, hadn't thought of that, you're right. Just more pop than agit.
	9:30pm Danne D: NOW IT'S TIME FOR THE FUNK!
	9:31pm Danne D: YOU AIN'T DOWN WITH THE FUNK YOU AIN'T DOWN WITH DAVIES - truer words have never been rapped.
	9:31pm Coordinator: @Ellen: Wasn't the name Gap Dream a nod in that direction??
	9:34pm chris :: toronto: <sigh> #Torontopeople
	9:34pm EL: Leather Uppers! So jealous of Montreal.
	9:34pm SteveL: Damn. Tune in late and the boards go wild!! I vote for vag rock, if anyone is asking.
	9:35pm Ike: LOL @ Ellen! (Hope nobody takes me too seriously. Other than Coordinator.)
	9:35pm Colm: Barflys a great venu too!
	9:35pm Spoony: I believe in Montreal, Barfly is pronounced "Barf-ly."
	9:43pm PB: Another track that sounds like it was recorded in a phone booth. Is this some kind of trend?
	9:44pm Barkevious Shabazz: Tee pees. Best band ever?
	9:46pm Barkevious Shabazz: Clearly influenced by Television.
	9:46pm kate: love it! was just playing the lures earlier today, good to be on the efd wave length!
	9:47pm chris :: toronto: This whole set, young as it is three songs in, is blowing my mind.
	9:49pm Thierry: @PB: thought of riot grls more than phone booths,which are getting extinct.
	9:52pm Thierry: Wouldn't this Dan Melchior song make a super Holy Golightly song?
	9:55pm G: Every DJ all day working from the station has mentioned it, don't break the string!!!! :-)
	9:58pm Bill: Incredible. At the EXACT moment you said "TP's" I was typing the letters "TP" into an Excel file.
	9:58pm JMD: Thank you for saying 'You're A Turd' on the air. I laughed out loud.
	9:59pm Brian Kenny: Awesome young man. Think baseball!
	9:59pm New Yawkuh: Turdy Tree n Yur a Turd!
	10:00pm Bill: Brian Kenny....are you originally from Hillsdale?
	10:04pm Danne D: Looks like Catie, who usually tumblr's drawing of the Best Show is tumblin' a little for EFD tonight :) http://catiemonstrocity.tumblr.com/
	10:04pm Holly in NC: Phew, I'm back! Looking forward to catching up on the first hour tomorrow.
	10:04pm Barkevious Shabazz: Is that euroturd or you're a turd? Just for clarity.
	10:05pm CornerTavern: Evan, great show. Bring on the Rock.
	10:05pm pete: Tuned in just in time for 20/20- nice! Happy Birthday "Marquee Moon"
	10:07pm G: @Danne: That putrs efd in some rarefied territory, right there!
	10:11pm efd: Great timing, Pete! And a happy how do you do to you to Danne, CornerTavern, Barkevious, Holly, john, Bill, BK, JMD (glad I made you laugh!), Thierry, PB, kate, chris, Colm, Spoony, SteveL, Ike, EL, RMH, destroit, Kat, CP, AWS, and anyone I left out (sorry if I did!).
	10:12pm Holly in NC: @Danne- Sorry you're feeling under the weather! Nice Bare Wires, efd.
	10:13pm Danne D: indeed it does, G :) Welcome back Holly :)
	10:13pm Taylor: It's always drive time SOMEWHERE! On the West Coast it's actually just-got-home time, or fixin'-dinner time, or I-just-ate time. Depending on one's freeway choice. Which means it's time to power up the computer and listen to guys going "bah bah bah bah" on FMU.
	10:17pm SteveL: Just got word that, not only is Apache Dropout gracing FT Wayne in Feb, now Acid Baby Jesus in April @brassrailFW. Midwest is where its at--occasionally.
	10:18pm Holly in NC: !!!!!!!!!White Hills in Raleigh in April!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:20pm Destroit: @ Holly: are you a Duke or heels girl?
	10:23pm Holly in NC: @Destroit - Duke!!!!!!!!!!!!! My guys were hanging, but they're in a bit of a rough patch now :-( I suspect Randy in NC is a Tarhole fan, so good thing he's not here tonight ;-)
	10:24pm PB: I hate Puke, always have. They're getting their heads handed to them in the 2nd half tonight.
	10:26pm Destroit: I'm watching... go Randy! Going to raliegh later this month for the first time, looking forward to it
	10:27pm Destroit: Duke is like the Yankees, if ain't from Duke, you hate them.
	10:29pm Holly in NC: @PB, now that's a bit of an exaggeration! Given the pundits (probably correctly, sigh) didn't give Duke much of a chance, I think they've been doing a great job. And I love them no matter what :-) efd, this set is starting out wonderfully!
	10:29pm SteveL: Oh yeah!
	10:29pm PB: I know a number of people who went to Duke and they are the nicest people in the world but the basketball team makes my stomach turn.
	10:30pm Mildred: Thank you for making this week much better. It's really been sucking otherwise. Now thinking about the origins of 'Much' -weird word, no?
	10:30pm G: But what do you really think, PB? No pulling punches! :-P
	10:31pm Danne D: Hi to any mysterious lurking presences out there :)
	10:31pm Barkevious Shabazz: Go Duke Lax. It's how we roll.
	10:32pm Kat in Chicago: DEV U STA TUH
	10:32pm efd: Hi Mildred, I'm happy I'm making the week better! Thanks for listening! Thanks for checking in from the west coast, Taylor! SteveL, next one's for you, kind of. As is this one, kind of.
	10:32pm mysterious lurking presences: Hi Danne :)
	10:33pm G: DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR DEVASTATOR
	10:34pm SteveL: DEVIL'S TATER DEVIL'S TATER...
	10:34pm dave: DEV UH STAY TUH DEV UH STAY TUH DEV UH STAY TUH DEV UH STAY TUH DEV UH STAY TUH
	10:34pm Danne D: Another brilliant Catie drawing that has me wondering if EFD has a mustache now: http://catiemonstrocity.tumblr.com/post/17301882080/i-dont-think-i-understand-whats-going-on-at-wfmu
	10:35pm Holly in NC: @Barkevious - Be very glad you didn't live in Durham during that whole mess. Devastator!
	10:35pm dave: is there anybody listening NOT throwing up the horns and going "DEV UH STAY TUH"?
	10:35pm Barkevious Shabazz: Commentator
	10:35pm G: I'm thinking they repeat that word 666 times.
	10:35pm SteveL: dave: No.
	10:36pm PB: @G, good one. All kidding aside, how long does this go on?
	10:36pm Danne D: Here's a real live picture of EFD in said Submarine :) Also note that Evan is totally adoptable: http://www.flickr.com/photos/wfmu/3270336933/in/set-72157603873576097
	10:37pm G: a minute or two more. efd knows to the second
	10:37pm SteveL: Hey Jude for the new generation
	10:37pm Danne D: @G - might have to go back and do a Dev-uh-state-uh count :)
	10:37pm efd: 30 seconds to go!
	10:37pm efd: DEMONSTRATOR! DEMONSTRATOR! DEMONSTRATOR! DEMONSTRATOR! DEMONSTRATOR!
	10:38pm Danne D: I think Evan blew the perfect song to play during the Ticket Bubble Bath :)
	10:38pm Jim: loving this episode of TEFDS
	10:38pm dave: it goes on 'TIL YR DEAD.
	10:38pm G: WHEWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:39pm PB: As one of my muso friends would say, not exactly Simon & Garfunkel is it?
	10:39pm SteveL: Circle the wagons!
	10:39pm Barkevious Shabazz: @Holly I support Duke. It's nice to see the ap kids do well on the athletic field.
	10:40pm SteveL: Great song, with such an early 80s vibe in the chorus.
	10:41pm Danne D: @mysterious lurking presences I still think that was an awesome drawing that Catie did :)
	10:41pm John L.: I am posting "Devastator" to my FB page. Curious to see the reaction of my friends.
	10:42pm Destroit: Duke might creep in this thing late. I really didn't get the appeal of the devastator track. Hmm.
	10:45pm SteveL: Destroit: Perhaps you should give it another listen?
	10:46pm Danne D: EFD kicks ass on drums, btw
	10:46pm PB: Are you giving away tickets for Pharaoh Overlord?
	10:47pm Danne D: Recommended to Mysterious Lurking Presences (Hoof N Mouth) and to all presences on Sunday Night March 4 :)
	10:47pm Danne D: I wonder if EFD will do Devastator as his Hoof N Mouth song.
	10:48pm G: Would he make it through all 666 reps w/o being dragged off the stage???
	10:49pm Destroit: Oh, for sure Steve. I was watching basketball, so the devastator was basically background music. I'll give it another whirl, with headphones, and see what happens!
	10:49pm Danne D: @G probably not - Hoof N Mouth has had similar song endings in the past
	10:50pm SteveL: Destroit: If you caught the last 60 secs, then you have a pretty good idea.
	10:50pm PB: @Destroit, you don't want to do that. once in a lifetime is more than enough.
	10:50pm Destroit: Note: G's 666 theory is spot on.
	10:50pm G: So he should road test it. Success or failure, it would be compelling.
	10:53pm Danne D: Catie was mega quick with her EFD correction :) http://catiemonstrocity.tumblr.com
	10:53pm Holly in NC: Suddenly, whenever I refresh the espn website, it goes BACK in time. Odd.
	10:55pm Holly in NC: The Bats are sounding wonderful.
	10:55pm Danne D: @Holly see if you can get the Whalers back in Hartford - please refresh some more. Thanks :)
	10:56pm efd: EL, are you still out there? I think this mustache business is your fault.
	10:57pm sean in 'cuse: Just love the bats - thank you!
	10:59pm Holly in NC: @Danne - With all the respect in the world, no way ;-)
	11:00pm Destroit: Whalers had, by far, the best after goal celebration song ever. Cue the brass! Also had the best logo. Thanks for reminders Danne.
	11:00pm G: It's kind of a 70s stache, no?? Maybe that's the clue.
	11:01pm Holly in NC: COWBELL!
	11:01pm Destroit: @g: whalers logo?
	11:06pm ADL: If only you used Yiddish every show, Evan!
	11:08pm Destroit: HW is a whales tail, here comes duke.
	11:12pm G: Listen closely to the bubblebath theme, who knows if its days are numbered or not! And Maria Muldaur's camel never gets enough sleep any more.
	11:13pm PB: NC choked that one away, big time.
	11:13pm Destroit: Happy For you Holly, unreal!
	11:14pm Holly in NC: Holy sh*t. Was NOT expecting that!
	11:14pm PB: Amazing shot but terrible defense. Why didn't the defender have his hands up?
	11:15pm stuart in seattle: yay! disco inferno. great stuff, that!
	11:16pm Destroit: Didn't wanna foul PB, my best guess.
	11:16pm Holly in NC: Now the end of season game @ Duke is going to be fierce. Fiercer. And the Giants won, too, it has been a good week in Holly sports world!
	11:18pm Thierry: With inferno like this, who needs paradise.
	11:19pm efd: who's got an "a" with an umlaut over it they can give me so I can list this song properly?
	11:19pm Destroit: Let's get back to the Whalers logo...jk, going to sleep. Love everybody, thanks efd, good night.
	11:20pm Destroit: And now you drop an Imler track! Tryin' to sleep damnit. Great show efd.
	11:21pm SteveL: ä
	11:21pm G: ä
	11:21pm efd: thanks Steve and G/ You're welcome, destroit! :)
	11:21pm G: Does that make us the a-umlaut holes?
	11:22pm Michael from the Left Coast: For a second there I thought it was Dan Hartman!
	11:22pm Holly in NC: ä
	11:23pm Holly in NC: Apparently we ARE slower down South.
	11:23pm G: DEVÄSTÄTOR
	11:25pm Gary Wright: My love is alive and living in my chest hair.
	11:27pm Danne D: @Destroit Brass Bonanza :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bwZbWZhAaM
	11:29pm Dänne D: Umläuts for everyone!
	11:32pm Hölly in NC: Dänne, I löve yöu, yöu are sö inclusive!

	11:33pm Hölly in NC: äwesome!
	11:34pm efd: weird, first time ever that I play Rammstein and Bryce shows up.
	11:36pm Augie Rios: Du hast Santa Claus?
	11:36pm Destroit: Yes! Stay asleep was great. Thanks Danne for the brass bonanza link. Every sega goal circa 1992 by dineen, Francis, verbeek, and and occasionally responsible Randy ladoceur appreciates you!
	11:36pm NaterTot: Dance track ov Du Hast?
	11:36pm Dänne D: I think Rammstein is the music used to conjure up Bryce
	11:37pm SteveL: Rammstein is not to be used carelessly.
	11:38pm G: @efd: "FMU Synchronicity", with an another example given early in the show by kate at 9:46...
	11:39pm NaterTot: Makes me wanna drive a large German automobile at inappropriate speeds.
	11:40pm SteveL: I love Rammstein more than propriety allows me to admit. Great music to write grants to, although I have no idea why.
	11:42pm Dänne D: I think my nephew is a huge Rammstein fan
	11:44pm Destroit: I'm not 'into' Rammstein, but I've yet to hear a bad Rammstein song.
	11:44pm T-Zero: @SteveL: Me too, and Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft
	11:44pm AD: in re: cheezeburger: chïrp chïrp
	11:45pm chris m.: http://cheezburger.com/View/1248762624
	11:46pm Dachskat: Kann ich habe rammsburger LOLz
	11:47pm SteveL: T-Zero: Nice tip. I will explore when I'm not listening to terrific radio.
	11:50pm Hölly in NC: "German rock band Rammstein are bringing over 50 tons of equipment to set the stage on fire for their shows in Russia" http://tinyurl.com/7l7srlt
	11:50pm T-Zero: @SteveL: I actually prefer DAF...
	11:50pm Deeeeeeeeee: Where is duhastcheezeburger.com?! Does it really exist?? I guffawed in the car upon hearing that. Almost lost my Frosty!
	11:52pm SteveL: T-Zero: Do you suggest a starting point for DAF?
	11:53pm Hölly in NC: Loving this last(?) set, efd!
	11:53pm SteveL: Holly: Fire is good. Checking flights to Moscow.
	11:56pm T-Zero: Their first album was in 1979. But I'd start with Die Kleinen Und Die Bösen (The Little and the Evil) and then their later 1998 album Gold Und Liebe (Gold and Love), then in 1982 Für immer
	11:57pm Dänne D: Yay Adam Warrock :)
	11:57pm SteveL: Noted! Thanks
	11:57pm efd: Thanks for listening and commenting, everyone! Happy DAF exploring, Steve!
	11:58pm T-Zero: @SteveL: >> Wiki http://tinyurl.com/6tah6sc
	11:58pm Dänne D: Have a good night everyone :D
	12:07am T-Zero: @SteveL: I have the dates messed up, but the Wiki link has the correct dates.
	12:15am T-Zero: @SteveL: Gold Und Liebe (Gold and Love) is my favorite
