	9:29pm Loretta: good evening all!!!! hi Evan ~ great start tonight. I had no idea that it has been 25 since we lost such an outrageous artist. His shows were a natural high.....I remember them well .....from the Academy of Music in NY.
	♥ 9:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Jerry Shirley also on Syd Barrett solo stuff (btw).
	♥ 9:34pm Stevel: Amazing that those interviews were five years ago.
	♥ 9:36pm Barkevious Shabazz: EFD_Did you ever find the old CDR of the original bed music? I miss it.
	♥ 9:41pm Stevel: Bark: I too recognize the difference. Not positive I have a preference, but the earlier bed masked American Woman a bit more, somehow, I think.
	♥ 9:42pm efd: @Barkevious, I haven't found it, but then again I haven't been looking. I think I still have the original .wav file though, maybe I'll re-burn it and alternate between the two.
	♥ 9:42pm Barkevious Shabazz: I would support that1
	9:43pm ledzeppelinsucks: hello from 91 degree Tacoma the air is disgusting here
	♥ 9:46pm Stevel: Shark Toys. Hmmmmmm. Like.
	♥ 9:47pm Barkevious Shabazz: Excited to be seeing Lloyd Cole begrudgingly play "the hits" Friday night in Philly.
	9:48pm JakeGould: “I want to talk abut TV screens… In my 1980s band…”
	♥ 9:49pm Stevel: We could run book on which bed efd would play on a given night. Just saying. Saw Lloyd Cole last year. Cool show. I directly pimped efd, and Lloyd recalled enjoying being on the show. Funny guy, dry, dry humor.
	♥ 9:49pm efd: stay cool out there in Tacoma! Barkevious, that should be a great show! Tell him Evan "Funk" Davies sent you! :D
	♥ 9:49pm Barkevious Shabazz: Will do.
	♥ 9:50pm Stevel: That's some crazy drum/bass interplay in T.V. Me.
	♥ 9:50pm efd: I just want someone to go up to a band/artist who was on my show and say "hey, Evan 'Funk' Davies sent me!"
	9:51pm JakeGould: @efd: Now that would be something!
	♥ 9:51pm Barkevious Shabazz: I'll see what I can do. Pretty small venue. Will prob go to jail.
	9:51pm Rev.: Very cool Distributors track EFD.
	♥ 9:51pm jmd: Never heard The Distributors before. Great track, thanks for playing.
	♥ 9:51pm Stevel: Actually, efd, that's pretty close to what I said. Bark: Put bail money aside now. Trust me.
	9:53pm JakeGould: That’s a 1" button, “EFD Sent Me!”
	♥ 9:54pm Stevel: I believe I told him I heard him perform and spin on your show and was convinced I needed to see him. I also mentioned that you were the King of something or other. Can't quite recall.
	♥ 9:54pm efd: A+ Stevel, well done.
	♥ 9:55pm Stevel: Jake: Voting Yes for button.
	♥ 9:56pm efd: I kind of love the button idea. Will investigate.
	♥ 9:56pm Barkevious Shabazz: Fondelier?
	♥ 9:57pm Stevel: I'd support the button, like, with money. Just saying.
	♥ 9:58pm Stevel: Also, Slowcoach is "Nightflight"-weird quality stuff!
	♥ 10:06pm efd: @BLCKDGRD, here's your request. ;)
	♥ 10:11pm Stevel: Lots of interesting stuff, new to me tonight. Neato.
	♥ 10:12pm efd: new to me too, largely!
	♥ 10:15pm eyenoise: Hooray Gwenno!
	10:18pm Scraps: Hey ledzeppelins***s: here in Snohomish County, I didn't go out in the sun. Good thing, I start to shrivel in the eighties.
	♥ 10:20pm efd: Nice to see Washington state representing on the playlist tonight!
	10:25pm Scraps: Saloot!
	♥ 10:27pm Uncle Michael: Apostrophication.
	10:28pm Scraps: As a ex-copyeditor, I approve no-apostrophes.
	♥ 10:29pm Stevel: Is that anti-apostrophication?
	10:31pm Scraps: Much misused, and 99% doesn't do any good use.
	10:36pm Scraps: (I still habitually use them, though. Even when I have to stretch to use them with this ipad "keyboard".)
	10:40pm Scraps: Apostrophe delanda est!
	10:41pm Scraps: er, delenda, I mean. sigh
	10:42pm Danne D: Hi EFD :) Hi Funk Fans :) Tuned in just havent on the comments. Hope you all are doing well :) Enjoying the show!
	♥ 10:44pm efd: Hi Danne! Thanks for checking in.
	♥ 10:50pm Chop Scott: Evan--Primavera effort will not be the same without you and Sherri. You will both be deeply missed on the team.
	♥ 10:51pm Kat in Chicago: Just tuned in! Hi EFD and Funkateers.
	♥ 10:51pm efd: Aw, thanks Scott. We're both gonna miss hanging out with you all too - it's always been a blast!
	♥ 10:52pm efd: hey Kat!
	10:54pm Carmichael: Yo Evan and rockers. Why does the app offer a video stream of the stalling tape?
	♥ 10:55pm efd: no idea, Carmichael! Maybe it's a remnant from the video of Dalek performing on Pseu Braun's show earlier tonight.
	10:56pm Carmichael: Could be, could be.
	11:04pm Scraps: Just take a sniff of a cat's breath: I don't want that biting me
	11:05pm Bklyn kid: evan Great broadcast
	♥ 11:05pm Bootsie: That Cait Brennan track made me think of Sparks.
	11:06pm Carmichael: New Motown!
	11:07pm Carmichael: I love Todd R's song You Cried Wolf. Would go nicely around here. Note to self ....
	♥ 11:07pm efd: I agree, Bootsie. That whole album is chock full of '70s touchstones.
	♥ 11:09pm efd: @Bklyn kid, thank you!
	11:20pm Carmichael: Wtf is this? I believe there is a Eurythmics connection somewhere.
	11:23pm brendanswfmuaccount: Man, bummed I missed the live set. This song rules. I'll have to check out the archives. Great stuff tonight, efd.
	♥ 11:24pm Michael 98145: Awright!!
	11:25pm KP: Abused apostrophes? Ex-copy editors? What did I miss?
	♥ 11:26pm efd: @Carmichael, you're right about that Eurythmics connection! I didn't realize -- Vic Martin was in both Eurythmics and Rexy.
	11:27pm Carmichael: And I recognize this voice. Alex Chilton or Chris Bell?
	♥ 11:33pm Ike: @KP, whatever it was, I missed it too. Maybe someone discussed eliminating all apostrophes from English because they're so misused?
	11:37pm KP: Ike, we should first eliminate the misusers.
	11:37pm KP: And thanks.
	11:42pm JakeGould: First they came for the apostrophes and I said nothing...
	11:44pm KP: Nothin'
	11:45pm Carmichael: Then, it was the semi-colons ...
	11:46pm Scraps: The dB's!
	11:49pm geezerette: Damn the ampersands,full speed ahead.
	11:49pm Scraps: That one without Stamey was still good.
	♥ 11:50pm efd: It was! But I'm also happy they all got back together eventually.
	11:51pm JakeGould: Ampersands, apostrophes and semi-colons bring so much joy to the world.
	11:54pm mark r: OMG I haven't heard this Lonnie Liston Smith cut since the 70s!!!
	11:54pm Scraps: I really liked the Holsapple / Stamey one before they resurrected the the dB's name. Very mellow.
	11:56pm Scraps: Mavericks, that was it.
	♥ 11:56pm efd: yes, agree
	11:59pm markreichard: Klaus is playing at the Cake Shop on 5/11 and Shea Stadium on 5/12!
