Options The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from November 10, 2010 Options

efd's avatar View efd's profile Options

Every show starts with a cut from the ‘70s: Rediscovering the forgotten rockers, revisiting the once-hated disco beats, replaying the power-pop favorites. Next: copious amounts of new releases and occasional live bands. Also: I’m the biggest Nick Gilder fan on WFMU.

  Wed. 11/10/10 9:07pm calzone!:

  Wed. 11/10/10 9:14pm efd:

I haven't, but I want to; I've heard nothing but good things about it. Plus he was on Dave the Spazz's show a few months ago talking about it.
  Wed. 11/10/10 9:15pm cheri:

  Wed. 11/10/10 9:26pm calzone!:

I live near Lake Superior in the U.P., and people still do that song at karaoke up here.
  Wed. 11/10/10 9:35pm Kat:

@Garrett yikes! that must make for some agonizing listening.
  Wed. 11/10/10 9:36pm marq:

now that is what radio guys used to sound like. even though they sold something
  Wed. 11/10/10 9:40pm efd:

Garrett, that's amazing! I'd have thought there would be some sort of unwritten ban on that (and Kat is likely correct)
  Wed. 11/10/10 9:43pm cheri:

efd,,did you bring any bowie with you tonite??
  Wed. 11/10/10 9:43pm marq:

  Wed. 11/10/10 9:44pm john:

Secret Affair? Rawk!!!!
  Wed. 11/10/10 9:50pm "maddi":

  Wed. 11/10/10 10:28pm efd:

cheri, I think you need to get some new material.

Kid Hougenie, I'm not really sure what to make of your comment.

Marq, thanks for sticking around!
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:32pm marq:

I'm still here!
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:34pm marq:

  Wed. 11/10/10 10:36pm Holly in NC:

Hi Funk Fans :)
I trust this show is going better than the Devils game did tonight
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:41pm cheri:

heeey danne happy holidays i'm just chillin with evan,,,rite???
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:41pm Holly in NC:

Would never guess this is the Vaselines, but I like...it seems they're exploring the side of the indie 80s they weren't a part of!
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:42pm marq:

meant to say twitching. My eye is is doing that
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:43pm Danne D:

Hey cheri :)

Happy Veterans Day tomorrow and thanks to all you veterans listening out there!

Happy Birthday parq!

Back to cheri - as to your personas, there's truly only one cheri so I'd have to vote 'nay' on bringing back any personae :)
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:44pm Danne D:

happy birthday Marq I mean!!!

Sorry to goof up :(
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:44pm Danne D:

knew i was gonna mess that up
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:46pm Psychologist:

I charge $75 for each 45-minute session. Per persona. It can add up.
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:47pm Holly in NC:

BTW, folks in Chapel Hill & Durham generally disliked being referenced as 'RTP' - and Chapel Hill truly is not. RTP.

Anyway, by birth I'm a Connecticut Yankee, and you can still totally get my goat by calling me a Tri-Stater ;-) I'm a New Englanduh!
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:49pm efd:

In truth I was using the RTP moniker somewhat ironically... it seems somewhat akin to referring to San Francisco as "Frisco."

Too bad you'll miss the show! Call in sick! :)

(Hi Danne D!)
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:49pm marq:

Thanks. I am still here.
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:53pm cheri:

well time for me to head out, evan & danne thnx for the advice & company efd & danne,,, i love ya both!! g'nite
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:54pm Danne D:

Hi Evan! :D

Hi Holly - lots of Yankees down in the Raleigh-Durham area. I go there for Thanksgiving every year to visit my mom, sis, bro and their families in fact.

I've never heard anyone called a tri-stater, though. Of course on the Jersey side of things we don't ponder Connecticut too much (and vice versa I'm sure)

G'night cheri!

Congrats on staying vertical marq :) is this birthday a big number?

Great set, Evan!

For those who want to know why I'm so sad about the Devils game, here's the epic fail of an ending:
http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/blog/puck_daddy/post/Video-Ilya-Kovalchuk-s-epic-shootout-fail-for-D;_ylt=AkpGjblrNJb_AvH1Q3Z1jQ17vLYF?urn=nhl-284345
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:56pm cheri:

keep on rocking evan!!!
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:57pm john:

I've got to agree, even here in the tri-statey area of Connecticut, if you said tri-state I'd think of New York or New Jersey and maybe Delaware or something.
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:58pm Danne D:

Tri-State is only referred to in car dealership ads I believe.
And perhaps on news radio.
  Wed. 11/10/10 10:58pm (tha') Kid Hougenie:

in that case I'm in the red 1200 large I am the instance of your reflection I say this to the entirety of the human psychic population let me reach into my hand and pull some money out of your pocket to pay you
  Wed. 11/10/10 11:02pm marq:

I'm lovin this show after the lovin of my birthday. everyone else is gone to sleep or gone otherwise. I can keep lovin the show, but it may mean that I love smokin a roll me own smoke, anyone object?
  Wed. 11/10/10 11:02pm Psychologist:

Puff, pass.
  Wed. 11/10/10 11:03pm Holly in NC:

Massachusetts folk, esp. Red Sox fans (no offense, EFD) are all about 'tristate' as an epithet to describe those of us with no home state major league teams who choose to follow...er... others.

Of course here in NC I still have my Whalers!
  Wed. 11/10/10 11:04pm steve:

youth brigade... wow!! for realz
  Wed. 11/10/10 11:04pm Danne D:

Aimee Mann, Man? Or Astoman?

Man!
  Wed. 11/10/10 11:07pm Joe:

I wonder where Man Man is.
  Wed. 11/10/10 11:08pm Danne D:

dunno, man
  Wed. 11/10/10 11:08pm The Man:

  Wed. 11/10/10 11:10pm cheri:

  Wed. 11/10/10 11:20pm efd:

  Wed. 11/10/10 11:40pm john:

That's pronounced Chin-e-box
  Thu. 11/11/10 6:21pm yngwie:

Not the exact riff, but one could say that that "The Boy with the Arab Strap" was "inspired" by "Draggin the Line" Check it...
