Playlist for The Evan "Funk" Davies Show - October 6, 2009

Tuesdays 11pm - 2am on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

Starting with the 70s -- it could be a classic (or obscure) punk rocker, a forgotten disco diva, a long-unheard hit record, or none of these. What happens next depends on what's in the WFMU new bin and whether I remember my records from home. Tune in and find out! You'll even hear a live band once in a while.

As it's been a bear of a day/week/month and I don't expect to be conscious for the duration, three items right upfront: 1) Hey Evan! 2) Congrats to all in EFD's fantasy baseball league--great fun this season and wait 'til next year! and 3) Go Twins!

Tue. 10/6/09 11:16pm From: Ken From Hyde Park

The Eddie Money tune brings me back to the days of running the combine on the old family farm. It was on the radio all the time back then.

Tue. 10/6/09 11:18pm From: rachel jansen

Tue. 10/6/09 11:56pm From: efd

Rachel, I actually haven't watched Family Guy that much.

Zorro, thanks for checking in. See you on Diane's show next week.

Tue. 10/6/09 11:56pm From: Amanda

Tonight looks like it will feature the ca. 12:25 Ticket Oasis.

I was giving out a URL not long ago and said "backslash backslash" and became totally mortified instantly. True story!

Tue. 10/6/09 11:58pm From: eager camel

Wed. 10/7/09 12:19am From: efd

it happens... one of those nights where i feel like i'm always behind.

Wed. 10/7/09 12:21am From: Spoony

I was never much of a fan, but that song just brought me into the Sunny Day In Glasgow fold.

Wed. 10/7/09 12:27am From: rachel jansen

Spoony, glad you enjoyed that SDiG song.

Wed. 10/7/09 12:56am From: (mta) Tony

Hey efd, we don't get a chance to speak much so I wanted to take this opportunity to say how much I enjoy your shows before the schedule change. Best of luck. Will you attend Glen's cruise?

Wed. 10/7/09 12:56am From: susan

hey efd i see that you have lots of fans. i'm i rite?

Wed. 10/7/09 12:57am From: Danne D

A quick hello to all the Funk Friends.
Still in mourning over my crushing loss in the Happy How Do You To You Baseball League, but I'll manage...somehow. :) Thanks for a fun time efd and congrats to that ubergoober character - I came close for a little bit there but could merely flail away fecklessly at the end. I really appreciate the invite and had a lot more fun than I anticipated :D Thanks to the other league members for making fun (oh and course congrats to Aharon on making like Pokemon and catching 'em all - that is at least one player on each team - wtg) :)

Wed. 10/7/09 12:59am From: Danne D

And just like that I'll say farewell - not so commenty tonight. Though I will say I'm happy to see EFD stay on the schedule. As a happy final note, I'll point out that there WILL be a Cinco De Funko next year - it just will take place during the last 2/3 of Evan's show instead of the first 1/3 like it did this year.

Cheers :)
-DD

Wed. 10/7/09 1:00am From: susan

nite nite all..see you soon!

Wed. 10/7/09 1:02am From: (mta) Tony

Hi -DD, nice to say hi and thank you to you again twice in a row; Remember from last night? Write back again... don't say goodnight!

Wed. 10/7/09 1:04am From: (mta) Tony

Who else is attending Glen's shmoozin' boozin' cruise?

Wed. 10/7/09 1:04am From: coalhard

keili show last night was disaster

Wed. 10/7/09 1:08am From: (mta) Tony

Yes coalhard, when we lost Keili, it was a disaster for her fans.

Wed. 10/7/09 1:10am From: coalhard

loved the music but consider her the sarah palin of radio

Wed. 10/7/09 1:14am From: toni daytona

keili will be terrribly missed by all

Wed. 10/7/09 1:15am From: Laurie

Oh, I need to find my way back to California. I'm craving Roscoe's something fierce right now. Will you look at that picture: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/28/Roscoe%27s_Waffles_and_Chicken.JPG It's worth a heart attack or two.

Wed. 10/7/09 1:16am From: Laurie

The amount of butter on those waffles, oh my god...

Wed. 10/7/09 1:16am From: Joshua K

Topps Diner in Newark, NJ has chicken and waffles on the menu... so good. More places need to serve it.

Wed. 10/7/09 1:17am From: toni daytona

but i love evan funk davies

Wed. 10/7/09 1:17am From: efd

hi Tony - appreciate the comments. Unfortunately I won't be able to make the Jonesy cruise, but I'm sure it'll be a blast.

Danne D, thanks for being a part of the league, and good job - there's no shame in third place (says the 11th place finisher)

Wed. 10/7/09 1:18am From: coalhard

tina fey could do keili--REAL GOOD-

Wed. 10/7/09 1:21am From: efd

OK coalhard, we get the point. Let's follow the old adage of not saying anything at all if you can't say something nice.

Wed. 10/7/09 1:31am From: theo

apparently the champagne socialists are known as neverever now. great tune anyway

Wed. 10/7/09 1:33am From: efd

huh, I hadn't heard that - thanks for the update, Theo!

Wed. 10/7/09 1:42am From: coalhard

i love wfmu--but have trouble communicating with them--like talking to aliens ???

Wed. 10/7/09 1:48am From: coalhard

hello i'm fried flinstone--let me start over

Wed. 10/7/09 1:48am From: Joshua K

Maybe you are trying to hard. Just relax and have fun.

Wed. 10/7/09 1:49am From: Joshua K

I can't believe I just said "to hard" instead of "too hard" I am an embarrassment to the English language.

Wed. 10/7/09 1:51am From: coalhard

i rest my case

Wed. 10/7/09 2:01am From: Joe

Great show - awesome driving music.

Wed. 10/7/09 2:03am From: Joe

PS - the "here on wfmu" tag was totally unnecessary after "you just heard Exiles From Clowntown"

because, lets be honest.

Wed. 10/7/09 3:23pm From: Danne D

For the record, Tops Diner is in East Newark (which is a small town in Hudson county across the river from Newark). It's right on River Road.

Thu. 10/8/09 3:13pm From: Joseph Davis

Hey Evan,
Saw you played "She's A Mover (alt. take)" and wanted to see if the Star & Micey CD and press kit was received. We addressed it to attn: Music Director. Jody Stephens of Big Star played on the song "Nelson" and if you could play that song, we'd greatly appreciate it. "She's A Mover" was written about my Aunt Diane who used to work here at Ardent in the 70s!
Best,
Joseph Davis
