	9:21pm efd: hi Joe!
	9:23pm Handy Haversack: slugluv, Bagpipe is happily resting up after a few days of eating deer poop in the north woods! A successful trip for all concerned. Joe B! My laptop died, but as soon as I have a way to get pix off the camera, I have some good ones to send you of the 3CM Beer Koozie in action!
	9:24pm efd: Parq I just found out about him when I picked up that LP over the weekend. Surprising too, since he was a big deal in the Boston scene.
	9:24pm Hoboken Jack: Summoned from an ill-timed nap by STAG! Hello EFD, skeleton, Joe, Sam, Gaylord, uncle Michael, SteveL, Handy we missed ye on the boards, everyone!

	9:27pm Steve Mack: This track is KILLER.
	9:27pm efd: whoops, forgot to add the song to the playlist! sorry about that!
	9:28pm Steve Mack: Hey - how come I can't register and get a groovy photo like all you cool cats? I try every week. :(
	9:29pm Gaylord Fields: Good evening, Jack!
	9:29pm Uncle Michael: Where's my electric fan?!
	9:29pm efd: oh weird, Steve! What happens you try to register?
	9:30pm Kat in Chicago: I completely forgot about this one.
	9:30pm RobinSays: Ah, "Eugene." Quick--name some other funny disco songs...
	9:31pm Barkevious Shabazz: I love Eugene.
	9:32pm brycepunk1: Evan, Sir Funk... I have to say again I love my Wednesday nights for your show. I only get the first 90 minutes cause of work Thursday, but man.. every single week you are ON! playing crazy joe now just kicking me with memories of being 8 years old.. thank you!
	9:32pm Kat in Chicago: @RobinSays: Lady Bug by Bumblebee Unlimited!
	9:32pm slugluv1313: Disco Duck . . . and yes, i was alive when one could not escape that song!
	9:33pm Matt Fiveash: I remember hearing Eugene on Dr. Demento!
	9:33pm Handy Haversack: Steve Mack, you're on a computer, not a phone, right? I think it doesn't work the same with the phone app. Also, I know some folx have had trouble signing in if running through a VPN, though not sure if that applies.
	9:34pm RobinSays: Hey Kat, I'll have to check out Lady Bug. Slugluv1313, yes, I was around when Disco Duck was a hit myself:)
	9:34pm Handy Haversack: Garbage Skeleton is definitely going in the D&D game, Matt.
	9:35pm Matt Warwick: Signal is SMOOOOOOOTH as eggs
	9:35pm ultradamno: Yeah, you can't sign in on the app.
	9:35pm Steve Mack: Oh right... my VPN... let me try to drop off that and see if I have any better luck.
	9:37pm Matt Warwick: @handy the first time I was on WFMU was to play D&D on the air.
	9:37pm Joe B: and the rest is history!
	9:38pm Joe B: might be the copy I traded in to Princeton in 1989
	9:39pm Handy Haversack: @Matt, Kate is always telling me to bug Ken about running a D&D show. But I'm a lazy, lazy DM (well, lazy, lazy person). That said, we play every Sunday over Zoom -- let me know if you ever want to sit in on a game! You'll know how to defeat the Garbage Skeletons -- distract them with cheese!
	9:41pm Faye: hey Gaylord! miss ya
	9:43pm Faye: also hi matt joe b & FIveash- loved your show earlier this evening was BLASTING IT
	9:44pm Steve from Stag!: Can't tell if it was the VPN or not checking the email box, but I'm in!
	9:44pm Joe B: welcome Steve!
	9:44pm prof.fuzz: Hi Evan. Thanks for playing us (The Prof.Fuzz 63) on your show recently. Appreciate it!

	9:57pm Joe B: thanks Gaylord, will have to go back, missed it!
	9:57pm efd: I believe what Gaylord believes. Early August maybe? Hi Kenzo, you've come to the right place!
	9:58pm Matt Warwick: Wow this chat is full of everyone I miss
	9:58pm Parq: Wow, a star-studded comments column tonight.
	9:59pm efd: apologies to everyone commenting who I didn't personally say hello to, it got busy over here!
	9:59pm efd: but I'm very happy to see you all!
	9:59pm Uncle Michael: Crazy Joe will comment any minute now...
	10:00pm Gaylord Fields: @efd: You can always say hello to us collectively. I can't see anyone ever objecting to that.
	10:01pm efd: great idea, Gaylord! Hi everyone! Thanks for tuning in tonight, each and every one of you equally (except Faye who is head and shoulders above the rest).
	10:02pm Joe B: as bugs bunny would say, thaaaat's the old pepper!
	10:02pm Aitch: Love this old Whirly World. Also see the Michael Hutchence collab and early Models, Andrew Duffield's band

	10:22pm efd: that's what I like to hear!
	10:23pm Joe B: is this an album title or the name of my autobiography?
	10:24pm mariano: Hey efd, Crew, folks.
	10:24pm Steve from Stag!: Perfect - Steven Bradley goes on my wish list for Bandcamp Friday!!!!
	10:33pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mariano!
	10:34pm mariano: Handy, how's it going! Find a replacement laptop yet?
	10:38pm patrick321: Heard this rose city thing a few times on other wfmu shows. I have to pick this up.
	10:41pm sufferwords: this Rose City is every hit of weed I smoked as a 13 year old
	10:43pm Joe B: on my list as well
	10:44pm Rob W: Rose City Band is a fairly new project from Ripley Johnson of Moon Duo and Wooden Shjips fame.
	10:45pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, Mariano, I ordered one and s thing to try save the data off the dead one. Advice from friends invaluable in this!
	10:51pm mariano: Good to know, Handy. I always keep everything double- and triple-backed up on- and offline in case my rig decides to kick the bucket.
	10:52pm Joe B: thanks Rob
	10:53pm efd: the high-wattage commenters keep on coming here on The Evan "Funk" Davies Show! Hi Rob!
	10:53pm Handy Haversack: My plan is to use this new laptop to go back in time and do that very thing, Mariano.
	10:53pm efd: solid plan, Handy.
	10:56pm JM: Great show as always tonight. Thanks, EFD. Hoping everyone is having fun wherever you are.
	10:58pm efd: thanks for listening, JM!
	10:58pm Handy Haversack: That's why one upgrades the hardware, efd. That's science, isn't it?
	10:58pm mariano: If only you'd come to me first, Handy, then the men who torched your fruit stand would be suffering this very day... er, I mean, I would've told you about the importance of backing up your data. Sorry, two conversations at once.
	11:00pm Handy Haversack: There's always money in the banana stand, Mariano.
	11:01pm Roberto: I just ate a banana!
	11:02pm mariano: And you're telling me all that's just a coincidence?!
	11:03pm Handy Haversack: New laptop already working! Well done, future HH!
	11:03pm Joe B: ha handy!
	11:03pm Rtintera: Show is on fire
	11:05pm Chop Scott: Good Wednesday Night EFD! Arriving late...

	11:08pm Stevel: We can take it!
	11:08pm Stevel: Schnooks. Amirite?
	11:08pm Handy Haversack: I hear only air horns now.
	11:08pm spodiodi: someone needs to make an air horn sad trombone for fb
	11:09pm Matt Warwick: I honestly was hoping for MORE air horn
	11:09pm Handy Haversack: Matt -- That. Arranged. Can be!
	11:13pm Chop Scott: I truly miss seeing you around the station Matt, and so many others. Cheers!
	11:14pm Mike Sin: My kitty Kat and I both enjoyed that Shadow Show track.
	11:15pm Joe B: shadow show are so great
	11:15pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): <3 this steve wynn track
	11:15pm Stevel: Steve Wynn is one versatile SOB! Enjoying this cover very much.
	11:18pm Matt Warwick: SCOOOOOTTT! Miss ya too buddy! You've missed so much. I eat apples now!
	11:23pm Joe B: apples? stopped making cookies?
	11:24pm spodiodi: i'm eating a cookie as we speak, but have way more apples
	11:25pm Handy Haversack: I live in the Big Apples!
	11:25pm spodiodi: don't mind the maggots!
	11:25pm spodiodi: look at me
	11:27pm Stevel: Teased by the touch of civilization.
	11:27pm Matt Warwick: @Joe Oh no. Still making/eating PLENTY of cookies. Now I just sometimes eat apples.
	11:27pm thesecoronalives: joel mccrea! 'foreign correspondence' feels very poignant atm..
	11:27pm spodiodi: btw, may The Weasels leave your new machine in peace, Handy!
	11:27pm Gaylord Fields: I went to load the dishwasher and transfer wet laundry from the washer to the dryer, and I missed the airhorn! Blur were right: Modern life IS rubbish!
	11:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think Matt would enjoy hearing some Peter Holsapple, if you have any around.
	11:28pm spodiodi: it was pretty sweet, Gaylord... i lost count!
	11:28pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, spod! They should stick to ripping my flesh like they're supposed to!
	11:29pm Gaylord Fields: @spodiodi: Thank heaven for the archives! Modern conveniences of life, you are forgiven — for now.
	11:29pm efd: I hope you learned your lesson, Gaylord!
	11:30pm Gaylord Fields: I did, efd: airhorn > tidiness
	11:31pm spodiodi: spoken like a man from utopia, Handy archives ftw, Gaylord!
	11:31pm Stevel: Gaylord: Somehow, that makes sense.
	11:32pm Gaylord Fields: @Stevel: I'll put you down for a bumper sticker.
	11:34pm Stevel: You know I'd use it.
	11:34pm Joe B: maybe some echo on the airhorn next week
	11:35pm Handy Haversack: Joe B, can the system even handle that?!
	11:35pm Joe B: i think studio efd is prepared!
	11:38pm Stevel: But, the 11 CD set might be what I really want, not having collected anything but the live Dream Syndicate album.
	11:39pm Kat in Chicago: I really, really hate "The Air That I Breathe" and always have, but I couldn't hate Steve Wynn's version.
	11:40pm Stevel: A friend of mine got to record with Jim Diamond. She remains a big fan.
	11:41pm efd: @Kat interesting! I've loved that song since I first heard it, and I also love Steve Wynn's version.
	11:51pm Kat in Chicago: Eh, I just have some kind of personal issue with what I perceive as sappy afterglow songs. Not big on post-60s Hollies either. shrug Steve Wynn just about sold it for me though
	11:56pm mariano: Thank you efd and Crew, take care everyone.
	11:56pm efd: @Kat no judgement, personal taste is personal!
	11:57pm Handy Haversack: Oh, dang, say it ain't so. If I had my new laptop, there's no way linear time would keep pulling this crap! Thanks, efd, Matt, team. Great show, efd! Be well, all.
	11:57pm KWilde: Thanks EFD! Have to bail before the sirens start wailing
	11:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, efd. Bye, Faye and others!
	11:57pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, efd!

	11:58pm ledzeppelinsucks: yeah
	11:58pm spodiodi: thanks, EFD! nice one thanks, crew! cheerio peeparazzi
	11:59pm Gaylord Fields: A thing some NJ kids once asked me: "Dis train go to Tren'n?"
	11:59pm Kat in Chicago: Thanks, efd, and goodnight all!
	12:00am Kat in Chicago: THE BIG APPLES
	12:01am P-90: Thanks efd!
	11:51am Steven Sclafani: Your show introduces me to so much great music. How do you do it? You have golden ears my friend.

Upcoming events:

Wed. Dec 18th, Noon - 3pm: Manager (More info...)
Manager is a three-piece band that’s based right here in Jersey City. They recently released a new EP, HOT-LINE (Texacobra), which showcases their hard-edged percolating indie sound that may remind the listener of Echo & The Bunnymen or Yo La Tengo.

It’s the 18th year of the Evan “Funk” Davies Show Holiday Music Funktacular, and this year — for the first time ever — it will air on actual Christmas Day!

September 23, 2020: live from Studio E(FD), at some point I switched from commas to colons and I'm switching back

	9:17pm Steve Mack: Hey! I know that guy...
	9:17pm wfmu listener phillip: is it warm or is it just me my weather app says 76°F wow!
	9:18pm efd: LOL! Hi Steve!
	9:18pm Sam Pocker: oh man, i missed cheap trick?

	9:19pm Joe B: Greetings Faye and everyone
	9:21pm Parq: Peter C. Johnson! There's a 70s name I haven't thought of in decades.
	9:21pm efd: hi Joe!
	9:23pm Handy Haversack: slugluv, Bagpipe is happily resting up after a few days of eating deer poop in the north woods! A successful trip for all concerned. Joe B! My laptop died, but as soon as I have a way to get pix off the camera, I have some good ones to send you of the 3CM Beer Koozie in action!
	9:24pm efd: Parq I just found out about him when I picked up that LP over the weekend. Surprising too, since he was a big deal in the Boston scene.
	9:24pm Hoboken Jack: Summoned from an ill-timed nap by STAG! Hello EFD, skeleton, Joe, Sam, Gaylord, uncle Michael, SteveL, Handy we missed ye on the boards, everyone!
	9:25pm Joe B: Handy sounds great!
	9:25pm Handy Haversack: Wow, thanks, Jack! Glad to be connected again! How goes?
	9:26pm Joe B: hey Jack!
	9:27pm Steve Mack: This track is KILLER.
	9:27pm efd: whoops, forgot to add the song to the playlist! sorry about that!
	9:28pm Steve Mack: Hey - how come I can't register and get a groovy photo like all you cool cats? I try every week. :(
	9:29pm Gaylord Fields: Good evening, Jack!
	9:29pm Uncle Michael: Where's my electric fan?!
	9:29pm efd: oh weird, Steve! What happens you try to register?
	9:30pm Kat in Chicago: I completely forgot about this one.
	9:30pm RobinSays: Ah, "Eugene." Quick--name some other funny disco songs...
	9:31pm Barkevious Shabazz: I love Eugene.
	9:32pm brycepunk1: Evan, Sir Funk... I have to say again I love my Wednesday nights for your show. I only get the first 90 minutes cause of work Thursday, but man.. every single week you are ON! playing crazy joe now just kicking me with memories of being 8 years old.. thank you!
	9:32pm Kat in Chicago: @RobinSays: Lady Bug by Bumblebee Unlimited!
	9:32pm slugluv1313: Disco Duck . . . and yes, i was alive when one could not escape that song!
	9:33pm Matt Fiveash: I remember hearing Eugene on Dr. Demento!
	9:33pm Handy Haversack: Steve Mack, you're on a computer, not a phone, right? I think it doesn't work the same with the phone app. Also, I know some folx have had trouble signing in if running through a VPN, though not sure if that applies.
	9:34pm RobinSays: Hey Kat, I'll have to check out Lady Bug. Slugluv1313, yes, I was around when Disco Duck was a hit myself:)
	9:34pm Handy Haversack: Garbage Skeleton is definitely going in the D&D game, Matt.
	9:35pm Matt Warwick: Signal is SMOOOOOOOTH as eggs
	9:35pm ultradamno: Yeah, you can't sign in on the app.
	9:35pm Steve Mack: Oh right... my VPN... let me try to drop off that and see if I have any better luck.
	9:37pm Matt Warwick: @handy the first time I was on WFMU was to play D&D on the air.
	9:37pm Joe B: and the rest is history!
	9:38pm Joe B: might be the copy I traded in to Princeton in 1989
	9:39pm Handy Haversack: @Matt, Kate is always telling me to bug Ken about running a D&D show. But I'm a lazy, lazy DM (well, lazy, lazy person). That said, we play every Sunday over Zoom -- let me know if you ever want to sit in on a game! You'll know how to defeat the Garbage Skeletons -- distract them with cheese!
	9:41pm Faye: hey Gaylord! miss ya
	9:43pm Faye: also hi matt joe b & FIveash- loved your show earlier this evening was BLASTING IT
	9:44pm Steve from Stag!: Can't tell if it was the VPN or not checking the email box, but I'm in!
	9:44pm Joe B: welcome Steve!
	9:44pm prof.fuzz: Hi Evan. Thanks for playing us (The Prof.Fuzz 63) on your show recently. Appreciate it!

	9:56pm Joe B: hey Kenzo!
	9:57pm Joe B: thanks Gaylord, will have to go back, missed it!
	9:57pm efd: I believe what Gaylord believes. Early August maybe? Hi Kenzo, you've come to the right place!
	9:58pm Matt Warwick: Wow this chat is full of everyone I miss
	9:58pm Parq: Wow, a star-studded comments column tonight.
	9:59pm efd: apologies to everyone commenting who I didn't personally say hello to, it got busy over here!
	9:59pm efd: but I'm very happy to see you all!
	9:59pm Uncle Michael: Crazy Joe will comment any minute now...
	10:00pm Gaylord Fields: @efd: You can always say hello to us collectively. I can't see anyone ever objecting to that.
	10:01pm efd: great idea, Gaylord! Hi everyone! Thanks for tuning in tonight, each and every one of you equally (except Faye who is head and shoulders above the rest).
	10:02pm Joe B: as bugs bunny would say, thaaaat's the old pepper!
	10:02pm Aitch: Love this old Whirly World. Also see the Michael Hutchence collab and early Models, Andrew Duffield's band

	10:19pm Cee Dub: loving the mix tonight whilst chilling in the cool evening watching Saturn and Jupiter roll down the elliptic
	10:20pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): I forgot to say, I'm enjoying hearing the catchy music with Faye and everyone else.
	10:22pm efd: that's what I like to hear!
	10:23pm Joe B: is this an album title or the name of my autobiography?
	10:24pm mariano: Hey efd, Crew, folks.
	10:24pm Steve from Stag!: Perfect - Steven Bradley goes on my wish list for Bandcamp Friday!!!!
	10:33pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Mariano!
	10:34pm mariano: Handy, how's it going! Find a replacement laptop yet?
	10:38pm patrick321: Heard this rose city thing a few times on other wfmu shows. I have to pick this up.
	10:41pm sufferwords: this Rose City is every hit of weed I smoked as a 13 year old
	10:43pm Joe B: on my list as well
	10:44pm Rob W: Rose City Band is a fairly new project from Ripley Johnson of Moon Duo and Wooden Shjips fame.
	10:45pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, Mariano, I ordered one and s thing to try save the data off the dead one. Advice from friends invaluable in this!
	10:51pm mariano: Good to know, Handy. I always keep everything double- and triple-backed up on- and offline in case my rig decides to kick the bucket.
	10:52pm Joe B: thanks Rob
	10:53pm efd: the high-wattage commenters keep on coming here on The Evan "Funk" Davies Show! Hi Rob!
	10:53pm Handy Haversack: My plan is to use this new laptop to go back in time and do that very thing, Mariano.
	10:53pm efd: solid plan, Handy.
	10:56pm JM: Great show as always tonight. Thanks, EFD. Hoping everyone is having fun wherever you are.
	10:58pm efd: thanks for listening, JM!
	10:58pm Handy Haversack: That's why one upgrades the hardware, efd. That's science, isn't it?
	10:58pm mariano: If only you'd come to me first, Handy, then the men who torched your fruit stand would be suffering this very day... er, I mean, I would've told you about the importance of backing up your data. Sorry, two conversations at once.
	11:00pm Handy Haversack: There's always money in the banana stand, Mariano.
	11:01pm Roberto: I just ate a banana!
	11:02pm mariano: And you're telling me all that's just a coincidence?!
	11:03pm Handy Haversack: New laptop already working! Well done, future HH!
	11:03pm Joe B: ha handy!
	11:03pm Rtintera: Show is on fire

	11:08pm Stevel: We can take it!
	11:08pm Stevel: Schnooks. Amirite?
	11:08pm Handy Haversack: I hear only air horns now.
	11:08pm spodiodi: someone needs to make an air horn sad trombone for fb
	11:09pm Matt Warwick: I honestly was hoping for MORE air horn
	11:09pm Handy Haversack: Matt -- That. Arranged. Can be!
	11:13pm Chop Scott: I truly miss seeing you around the station Matt, and so many others. Cheers!

	11:15pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever): <3 this steve wynn track
	11:15pm Stevel: Steve Wynn is one versatile SOB! Enjoying this cover very much.
	11:18pm Matt Warwick: SCOOOOOTTT! Miss ya too buddy! You've missed so much. I eat apples now!
	11:23pm Joe B: apples? stopped making cookies?
	11:24pm spodiodi: i'm eating a cookie as we speak, but have way more apples
	11:25pm Handy Haversack: I live in the Big Apples!
	11:25pm spodiodi: don't mind the maggots!
	11:25pm spodiodi: look at me
	11:27pm Stevel: Teased by the touch of civilization.
	11:27pm Matt Warwick: @Joe Oh no. Still making/eating PLENTY of cookies. Now I just sometimes eat apples.
	11:27pm thesecoronalives: joel mccrea! 'foreign correspondence' feels very poignant atm..
	11:27pm spodiodi: btw, may The Weasels leave your new machine in peace, Handy!
	11:27pm Gaylord Fields: I went to load the dishwasher and transfer wet laundry from the washer to the dryer, and I missed the airhorn! Blur were right: Modern life IS rubbish!
	11:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: I think Matt would enjoy hearing some Peter Holsapple, if you have any around.
	11:28pm spodiodi: it was pretty sweet, Gaylord... i lost count!
	11:28pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, spod! They should stick to ripping my flesh like they're supposed to!
	11:29pm Gaylord Fields: @spodiodi: Thank heaven for the archives! Modern conveniences of life, you are forgiven — for now.
	11:29pm efd: I hope you learned your lesson, Gaylord!
	11:30pm Gaylord Fields: I did, efd: airhorn > tidiness
	11:31pm spodiodi: spoken like a man from utopia, Handy archives ftw, Gaylord!
	11:31pm Stevel: Gaylord: Somehow, that makes sense.
	11:32pm Gaylord Fields: @Stevel: I'll put you down for a bumper sticker.
	11:34pm Stevel: You know I'd use it.
	11:34pm Joe B: maybe some echo on the airhorn next week
	11:35pm Handy Haversack: Joe B, can the system even handle that?!
	11:35pm Joe B: i think studio efd is prepared!
	11:38pm Stevel: But, the 11 CD set might be what I really want, not having collected anything but the live Dream Syndicate album.
	11:39pm Kat in Chicago: I really, really hate "The Air That I Breathe" and always have, but I couldn't hate Steve Wynn's version.
	11:40pm Stevel: A friend of mine got to record with Jim Diamond. She remains a big fan.
	11:41pm efd: @Kat interesting! I've loved that song since I first heard it, and I also love Steve Wynn's version.
	11:51pm Kat in Chicago: Eh, I just have some kind of personal issue with what I perceive as sappy afterglow songs. Not big on post-60s Hollies either. shrug Steve Wynn just about sold it for me though
	11:56pm mariano: Thank you efd and Crew, take care everyone.
	11:56pm efd: @Kat no judgement, personal taste is personal!
	11:57pm Handy Haversack: Oh, dang, say it ain't so. If I had my new laptop, there's no way linear time would keep pulling this crap! Thanks, efd, Matt, team. Great show, efd! Be well, all.
	11:57pm KWilde: Thanks EFD! Have to bail before the sirens start wailing
	11:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, efd. Bye, Faye and others!

	12:00am Kat in Chicago: THE BIG APPLES
	12:01am P-90: Thanks efd!
