Tue. 4/28/09 11:09pm From: sveden

Nice Jacko song to start out the set and get rid of the funk of The Mike Show.

Tue. 4/28/09 11:10pm From: em2

potato hooole!

Tue. 4/28/09 11:10pm From: john

I'm goin' back to Indiana.

Tue. 4/28/09 11:12pm From: cheri

hey there evan-any idea if you're on the summer schedule??? i hope you are=)=)

Tue. 4/28/09 11:15pm From: efd

Cheri, I hope I am too! But none of us will know until sometime around the middle of June, so you'll need to find a new question.

Hi John, em2, sveden and Mark!

Tue. 4/28/09 11:19pm From: Mark

Hi efd! It's good to hear from you!

Tue. 4/28/09 11:22pm From: Pearly Sweets

They keep their super secret summer schedule hidden from all eyes and announce it at 5 in the morning, like the Oscars.

Tue. 4/28/09 11:28pm From: Amanda

Is there a paranoia or disease theme to this set, per the show title? I can't identify it! Ohhhh no!

Tue. 4/28/09 11:29pm From: cheri & toni d.

g'nit efd & everybody i'm skippin out alil early..it's been a long day,,i'm sorry=( see ya next week efd,,

Tue. 4/28/09 11:30pm From: E.L.

When I hear the Thermals I get the "feelin' just fine" flu.

Tue. 4/28/09 11:32pm From: Amanda

Ah, you mean the "so happy I'm lying supine" flu!

Hand sanitizer is supposed to be bad for you, isn't it?

Tue. 4/28/09 11:36pm From: dustin

that's great to hear aceyalone's new stuff. The Book of Human Language is a great album but completely different than this new release.

Tue. 4/28/09 11:38pm From: E.L.

Hand sanitizer is fine if you drink it in moderation.

Tue. 4/28/09 11:40pm From: Paolo

Hey Evan, where can I get that "Heavy Metal" Label compilation? Is it available for purchase anywhere online, or do I have to pester my local record stores? If you can't post a link here, you're more than welcome to e-mail it to me

Tue. 4/28/09 11:44pm From: cheri

ohhhh evan,,,i know that you already have my e-mail address--i want you to e-mail me if have the time tonite thnx & goodnite!!!!!=)=)

Tue. 4/28/09 11:49pm From: Amanda

Hey, late to add this, but I saw Muck and the Mires just recently! They were what's commonly known as "a ton of fun" live. Of course, I was trying to drink as much hand sanitizer as listener Joe and his friend at the time, so my memory could be skewed.

Tue. 4/28/09 11:49pm From: efd

Paolo, there's no contact info or (legit) address on that record - I think you might just have to search around online to see if it's listed anywhere.

E.L.. nice to see you listening in realtime! Dustin, glad you dug the Aceyalone cut. Amanda, yes, I think I've heard that before as well. Hi Pearly, and goodnight Cheri/Toni!

Tue. 4/28/09 11:49pm From: stingy d

hey man

Tue. 4/28/09 11:50pm From: will

Eeek! Someone else's cover of Lonelyhearts? It was the only good song by the Atlantics but then someone thought they could do it better (apparently). Evan, yer my favorite show for always!

Tue. 4/28/09 11:51pm From: Jessica

Gary Private sounds like Paul Staney. He's creeping me out a little aktuly. I think it's the way he says "Hawts".

Wed. 4/29/09 12:07am From: stingy d

rework, this is what i'm looking for. nice!

Wed. 4/29/09 12:09am From: efd

cool, Stingy! How's your knee? (it was your knee that was banged up, right?)

Hi Jessica - I know what you mean about Gary Private, which is partly why I was thinking it was weird that he was on Select - but maybe that's selective memory on my part.

Hi Will, glad you appreciated(?) that cover!

Wed. 4/29/09 12:11am From: stingy d

wrist. it's swell. no pun intended. stop playing freez man. i beg you.

Wed. 4/29/09 12:12am From: efd

it's good for you, it's building character!

Wed. 4/29/09 12:14am From: greg siny

Evan Some Questions did you work at bcn in Boston somewhere around 1980? I have some cassettes i made of bcn around that time and the set list s are just like yours..
I even have that song of a local Boston band that had the lyrics That went "talk talk talk talk about it?
Do you Know that song?

about 15/20 minutes ago, what was the song that sounded like a Bad Company 70's type song? Thanks
......

Wed. 4/29/09 12:14am From: stingy d

you not liking that song so much, makes me happier actually.

Wed. 4/29/09 12:16am From: stingy d

learning that you got it in northampton makes me happier too. i like that place, somehow i'm not surprised they had a freez record for a dollar.

Wed. 4/29/09 12:16am From: john

Got your dollar's worth now! Or maybe you can make it the new bed music?

Wed. 4/29/09 12:31am From: efd

John, even I couldn't take that being my bed music!

Greg - was never at 'BCN, although a good friend of mine from high school was MD there for a few years in the late 70s - I think he was in NYC by 1980 (as was I), but he was a big influence on my musical taste, so not surprising that there are similarities there.

Pretty sure that 70s-sounding song you're asking about was Gary Private...? Maybe? You can go back and check the archive tomorrow.

Wed. 4/29/09 12:41am From: stingy d

i'm drinking my first yoo-hoo of this century!

Wed. 4/29/09 12:43am From: E.L.

I need to get the Laureates album— having enjoyed their free EP for soooooooo long.

Wed. 4/29/09 12:47am From: Ron

Great show, Evan. Totally awesome! I'm in New Jersey for the day tomorrow - do you have any suggestions for a day trip I could take with my girlfriend? Thanks in advance!

Wed. 4/29/09 12:49am From: frank beard

hey evan, whats the magazine called?

Wed. 4/29/09 12:50am From: mustache hartley

thx

Wed. 4/29/09 12:52am From: Joe

Yes. Perfect.

Freakin' perfect.

Wed. 4/29/09 12:54am From: Joe

I mean, the Freez was perfect too, but I was driving then.

This is perfect for -now-.

And probably later.

Wed. 4/29/09 12:56am From: Amanda

Dammit, I was just about to go to bed!

Wed. 4/29/09 12:57am From: Joe

So you're just one of those people who likes to top themselves all the time, eh?

I tip my hat back to you, sir.

Wed. 4/29/09 12:59am From: stingy d

so far i'm all about this howlies track, the rework track, cybotron, and the fact that you made the funny joke of playing an aceyalone track.

Wed. 4/29/09 12:59am From: efd

I'm just trying to make Amanda stay up past her bedtime.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:01am From: Amanda

Think this makes up for the Rangers' loss.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:01am From: Joe

Its actually not that hard.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:03am From: Danne D

Evening, O King of Funk!

Wed. 4/29/09 1:07am From: E.L.

Everybody! Ah ha ha! HEEEY! OH GOOBAH GOOBAH GOOBAH!

Wed. 4/29/09 1:07am From: E.L.

Too late.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:09am From: stingy d

my roommate slapped a sole cd out of sole's hand one time. which is hilarious because that guy is a certified douche (not my roommate).

Wed. 4/29/09 1:14am From: Joe

Aw man Stingy don't ruin Sole for me like that.

I just hope OC sees a little bit of green from that release.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:15am From: efd

douche or not, I like this remix CD!

E.L., that comment was hilarious.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:16am From: E.L.

Yeah, Lost Controls! You are my caffeine!

Thanks, efd. Everyone was doing it. I just stated the obvious.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:19am From: Amanda

E.L., we were all thinking it! Reeling with the shock of its hilarity!

Wed. 4/29/09 1:19am From: Joe

He's right!

Wed. 4/29/09 1:19am From: Joe

Her too!

Wed. 4/29/09 1:21am From: stingy d

sorry joe. but at least time's up is one of the most sampled and cut up records in hip hop history... so.... i hope everyone gives o.c. a piece of the pie.

and listen davies.... i'm just much too much when it comes to rap, nobody ever makes me happy. so just gloss over any worthless diatribe's i got when it comes to that. i'm impossible. my apologies! great show as always, i'm a big fan!

Wed. 4/29/09 1:24am From: efd

hi Danne! almost missed you in all the excitement.

Stingy, no worries - I wasn't taking it personally.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:25am From: Joe

True Stingy.

"non-conceptual non-exceptional / your whole aura is plexiglass"

But props to your roomie for distributing smacks where/when earned.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:25am From: E.L.

I meant: I WAS just stating the obvious.

Oh late night WFMU comments, given the chance, how many of you would I destroy?

A: MOST

Wed. 4/29/09 1:26am From: Amanda

Stingy, you're such a class act. E.L., you are blowing my mind AGAIN. Let me take a minute to acknowledge how much love is in this room. May I? I hope it's all right to do so. (acknowledging)

Wed. 4/29/09 1:31am From: Danne D

No problem EFD, still a little zombiefied myself trying to recover from the Devils debacle tonight! :(

Wed. 4/29/09 1:31am From: stingy d

ewwwww love is yicky.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:36am From: Amanda

I used to think so too. Even Danne D was a curmudgeon before the EFD show turned him around.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:37am From: Aharon (aka Babybunting)

EFD, et al.: need you ask where I would be at 1:34 on a Wednesday morning? Now, the smart thing to do would be to lay low on the query, but I didn't end up going to the Jeremy Jay show last week. Was convinced--and, to be sure-, excited--to go see Quintron instead. But after that rousing song a bit back, I am dead set on the Thermals in about 2 weeks. Promises, promises...

Wed. 4/29/09 1:37am From: Joe

Love is all you need. Love and the Easybeats.


Also food.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:40am From: efd

thanks for the update, Aharon. I've seen the Thermals before, and can assure you that that will definitely be a rock show.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:40am From: E.L.

Aharon, I would punch a duck to see the Thermals at this point.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:41am From: Joe

Is that how you do it?

And here I am, buying tickets like some kind of sucker!

Wed. 4/29/09 1:41am From: Danne D

:) yep yep Amanda :)
how ya doing and hello to all you other fine folks (didn't mean to slight you guys)

Wed. 4/29/09 1:42am From: efd

Joe, buying tickets *is* the preferred method.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:42am From: Joe

Or winning them. Sometimes I win them.

-sometimes-

Wed. 4/29/09 1:45am From: stingy d

aaah, i'm just kiddin, i'm a total love hag

Wed. 4/29/09 1:45am From: Aharon

EFD--thank you for the reco/confo. BTW, I wish someone had told me about Bright Eyes before I saw him (in maybe 2000, but still).

EL: I will be contacting the DADL about this.

There are actually still tickets for the 5/9 and 5/11 Thermals shows available (W'burg show is prob better venue). I will leave nothing to chance. Or larceny. Or duck abuse.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:46am From: Danne D

Bryce is such a beast on the drums. Plus all those other legends. This sounds like quite the way to end the week!

Wed. 4/29/09 1:47am From: E.L.

YEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!

Thank You.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:47am From: jesse

when's that thing with the jam sessions?

Wed. 4/29/09 1:49am From: Joe

Friday from 3-6, on "Put the Needle on the Record with Billy Jam"

EFD, was the "Wendy" you mentioned the infamous volunteer/cheesehound?

Wed. 4/29/09 1:50am From: stingy d

oh my goodness!!! this is what i was looking for!!!!!! FRNKENSTEIN!!! oh man!!!!

hey efd, you know roy burns?

Wed. 4/29/09 1:50am From: efd

Thanks Joe - and yes, I'm pretty sure that is Wendy la femme du fromage.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:54am From: E.L.

That's a good cartoon. I still like the one with the two snails where one says, " I don't care if she is a tape dispenser— I love her."

Wed. 4/29/09 1:57am From: efd

I love any kind of snail joke.

Wed. 4/29/09 1:59am From: Danne D

night Funk-o-philes!

Wed. 4/29/09 1:59am From: Amanda

See, now I'm thinking of the guy who gets mad at his pet snail and kicks him out the door. One year later, there's a knock at the door and when the man opens, the snail is standing there: "Hey man, what the fuck was that about?"

Wed. 4/29/09 1:59am From: Joe

This song might inspire some odd dreams later.

Good show, though, thanks.

Wed. 4/29/09 2:00am From: Danne D

lol Amanda :)

Wed. 4/29/09 2:06am From: efd

See?! Amanda, I am LOLing at that even though of course I am already quite familiar with that joke.

Maybe next week will be Snail Joke week on the comments.

Wed. 4/29/09 10:30am From: herb

it's 10:27am & JEREMY JAY is singing, via the archvies. yep, that's the best song on rec, and i told j.j. that WNYU played it & i thought "GO-BETWEENS?". he smiled, and said "yeah, i love their first 2 singles" and he helped me out with a "lee remick" lyric. v.g. show, at union hall. nice basic pop.

Wed. 4/29/09 11:45am From: Amanda

And *I* am still LOLing over much of this show, its snail jokes and other aspects (please note that it's now noon). Keeping me awake is going to be a challenge now, tho' last night it sure wasn't!
