efd's avatar View efd's profile Favoriting

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.

  11:08pm
john:

I remember when this story broke. I was (I think) ten. It didn't seem that odd. I miss the 1970s.
  11:09pm

Looking forward to it! Great to hear your show at 8pm, by the way. A little cognitive dissonance tuning in while it's still light out!
  11:19pm

Speaking of time for funk -- I guess whoever fills in for Tom is contractually obligated to run over several minutes, likewise!

No Wakefield, WP Papelbon, SV Rivera
  11:46pm

comments observation:

  1:10am
Pete:

EFD:

Regarding Bare Wires their new record is called "Artificial Cloud" but it looks like its only going to be out on vinyl (this is starting to bother me). They are going to tour in late summer and will be coming to Chicago (near where I live) but not New York.

Also sent you an email "XYX" (Mau) new single. If you read your emails, you can check out the email they sent.

Cheers
  1:13am
Danne D:

Greetings Funktastic Followers
  1:16am
efd:

thanks for the info, Pete - and here's that new XYX single now!

Hi, Danne D!
  1:19am
Danne D:

now that we're past the all star break this is where the Bill Leefds will start to pwn everyone. Thanks for letting get my brief moment in the sun in 2nd place before commencing your inevitable domination, Evan :)
  1:20am
efd:

ha! Danne, your confidence is appreciated but misplaced, I fear.
  1:23am
Joshua K:

I haven't been following baseball but heres a picture http://i26.tinypic.com/x0y3ag.gif
  1:25am
Danne D:

LOL Joshua.

Btw, Evan is there going to be cake in celebration of Aharon's 100th transaction when it occurs?
  1:33am
Laurie:

Davila 666 are touring Florida with Jacuzzi Boys. They will be playing Miami, of course, but also Ybor City. And a handful of other cities.
  1:39am
Joshua K:

Ybor city rules, as long as you don't go when the drunk people are there.
  1:39am
anhelo:

xYx is tuning you tonight :)
  1:39am
mike:

Evan, I guess I am one of the three people listening that cared about what you said about WBCN. Really, I was shocked. I was just in Boston for the July 4th fireworks, on a boat in the Charles river listening to 'BCN at a boat party, and, with a couple of beers, it almost felt like the old days. While it is true the station is not what it once was, and, like you, I no longer live in Boston, I still associate that station with the city, and it certainly does seem like the end of an era.
  1:43am
efd:

¡hola, Anhelo! Please come to New York sometime soon - and to Chicago, for Pete who commented earlier!
  1:45am
Michael from the Left Coast:

Esther Phillips!!!
EFD--did you listen to her version of Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You (Yes the Dylan song)? It 's one of the best Dylan covers ever
  1:46am
efd:

Michael, I have to admit that I'm not familiar with much more than that single!
  1:49am
Anhelo:

We want to!!! We will!!!
  1:50am
efd:

Mike, thanks for your WBCN comment... it's weird, even though I'm sure I wouldn't have been listening if I lived up there it still feels like a loss of some kind. Sort of like when CBGB closed, even though I hadn't been there in ages.
  1:54am
Danne D:

night all you fine folks!
night Evan - you're a true WFMU all star!
  1:56am
efd:

ha, thanks Danne and goodnight all!
