Listener comments!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:04pm Uncle Michael:

Are we dancin' in the harvest moonlight?

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:05pm Ken From Hyde Park:

No, but the harvest loon might.

Wed. 9/18/13 9:10pm Loretta:

good evening Evan & fellow listeners! great moon tonight ~ love it..

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:12pm Barkevious Shabazz:

KJ lost it around this time. Bad distortion pedal.

Wed. 9/18/13 9:12pm efd:

But then they found it again!

Wed. 9/18/13 9:13pm efd:

I know where you're coming from, though, I kind of dropped out for a few years myself.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:16pm Barkevious Shabazz:

Watching KJ on the Whats This For tour on crutches in a NUTTY mob is a good memory.

Wed. 9/18/13 9:24pm efd:

You on crutches, not them, I presume.

Wed. 9/18/13 9:25pm Holly in NC:

Hello efd, UM, Loretta, Ken & Barkevious!
The 2 dogs I'm with were just dancing & barking in the moonlight (& howling alone w emergency vehicles) ;-)

@efd, finally received your premium, but haven't yet had a chance to listen. Excited!

Wed. 9/18/13 9:25pm Mike East:

jesus, where have I been for the past 25 minutes?

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:26pm Barkevious Shabazz:

No, they were fully ambulatory. I was not. Well out of control.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:26pm Uncle Michael:

This is some fine Gore right here.

Wed. 9/18/13 9:26pm Holly in NC:

I LOVE this Lesley Gore song, always have.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:27pm Uncle Michael:

Hiya Holly

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:32pm 12539:

One last time!

Wed. 9/18/13 9:32pm Holly in NC:

I know these seagulls...

Wed. 9/18/13 9:32pm efd:

I'm sure none of you saw this coming. :P

Wed. 9/18/13 9:33pm Richard from Venezuela:

Greetings Evan and all the listeners.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:33pm Uncle Michael:

Not very Moodyesque....very.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:33pm Barkevious Shabazz:

That Baskervilles was ace.

Wed. 9/18/13 9:33pm steve:

this song is one of the only good things about summer

Wed. 9/18/13 9:34pm Pine:

Volume always goes up when its time for the funk!

Wed. 9/18/13 9:37pm Loretta:

hello Holly.... love that Leslie Gore song too!

Wed. 9/18/13 9:38pm Michael K.:

' twould not be Summer without Starbreaker !

Wed. 9/18/13 9:38pm Kathy:

ok so I am about to be homeless and just want to know how to pick up FMU while nomadic as opposed to having a home....

Wed. 9/18/13 9:39pm Pine:

Hah we used to sneak into the Irish Butlins, "Get the Guards!"

Wed. 9/18/13 9:43pm Holly in NC:

@Kathy - if you can finagle a smart phone w unlimited data plan, you're all set! Credo works for me. But I'm peeved that wfmu app upgrade is for iphone only BECAUSE AS AN ANDROID USER I STILL CAN'T ACCESS STREAM ARCHIVES, SUCH AS, OH, SAY, UNCLE MICHAEL'S...

Wed. 9/18/13 9:43pm Mike East:

@Kathy - get an FM radio and head towards Jersey City.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:43pm pacific standard simon:

aaahhh... home from work and ready to shirk! Hiya, loonies!

Wed. 9/18/13 9:44pm efd:

Android update is coming, Holly!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:48pm Stevel:

Lloyd Cole is pretty tremendous. Lyrics worth hearing.

Lloyd Cole and the Commotions?

Wed. 9/18/13 9:50pm john:

New Lloyd elpee is getting great reviews (and I'm a proud kickstarter backer), return to the sound of early '90s solo material, but I actually like Broken Record from a couple years ago better. Well worth checking out, as was the one before that, Antidepressant.

Wed. 9/18/13 9:51pm Holly in NC:

@efd - looking forward! Sorry to whine, I am truly constantly in a state of shock & awe re wfmu's awesome technology.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 9:52pm pacific standard simon:

Thank you, Evan, for the heads-up about your Richie Teeter memorial show -- I listened and enjoyed, particularly Andy Shernoff's comments.

Wed. 9/18/13 9:53pm Tome:

hi EFD ,, hi folks great tunes as always and a great crisp cool clear evening and a Full Moon !

Wed. 9/18/13 9:57pm Kathy:

I have these romantic visions of living out of my car but the winter makes it SO less so. I just know that if I can listen to this station while down & stinky I will be just fine.... so ludite- ish, technology escapes me!! I will have no choice but to catch up!

Wed. 9/18/13 9:58pm efd:

Thanks PSS, I'm happy to hear you enjoyed that show.

Greetings Tome, Stevel, steve, Holly, Kathy (good luck to you!), Loretta, Mike, Michael, and Uncle Michael, Pine, Barkevious, Ken, anyone I missed, and any and all lurkers!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:01pm pacific standard simon:

This Sparks tune sounds very strange without a thundering band behind the Bros.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:01pm Danne D:

Hey there EFD, hey there everyone

Wed. 9/18/13 10:02pm SeanG:

This show looks killer--gotta go stack some zzzzs but will check out the archives.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:02pm pacific standard simon:

The thing is, I can still hear the band in my head.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:06pm pacific standard simon:

If I go see them, I'm sure I'll rush home afterward and play all the records.

Wed. 9/18/13 10:08pm Chop Scott:

EFD! So glad you are a Sparks fan--Cheers!

Wed. 9/18/13 10:09pm Mike East:

lockin' up. catch ya in the car. night all!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:11pm pacific standard simon:

A whole new level of whining will commence if the new android app fails to function on Kindle Fire HD, as the old one did.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:13pm Danne D:

This is very good :)

Wed. 9/18/13 10:14pm Holly in NC:

Hello & greetings, Danne!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:14pm Lonely Planet Boy:

Droids run on different devices. That makes app development & functionality a challenge.

Wed. 9/18/13 10:17pm efd:

Hey Scott, thanks for checking in! You too Danne and LPB. Drive safely, Mike E.!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:23pm Lonely Planet Boy:

Sugar = sweet!!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:23pm pacific standard simon:

Ah poop, the Mets beat the Giants.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:30pm Uncle Michael:

this is suh-weet!

Wed. 9/18/13 10:30pm efd:

OHMYGOD SO GOOD!!!!!!!!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:35pm Uncle Michael:

faux and not-faux!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:35pm Barkevious Shabazz:

AC\DC were a great pop band.

Wed. 9/18/13 10:36pm efd:

if only I had my Rhino Bucket CDs with me.

Wed. 9/18/13 10:36pm Alex of Chicago:

I'm glad you don't care. Hey everyone.

Wed. 9/18/13 10:41pm efd:

hey Alex!

Wed. 9/18/13 10:42pm will:

Evan, you are the Power Pop Punisher!

Wed. 9/18/13 10:43pm Droll:

I need to get over this mental hurdle that "The Wrong Words" are not Colin Moulding solo albums!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 10:48pm pacific standard simon:

I GOT TICKETS!!! www.flickr.com...

Wed. 9/18/13 10:55pm efd:

man, I wish I was giving those tickets away!

Wed. 9/18/13 10:55pm JTE:

Hey Evan, my favorite DJ show on WFMU - and that's saying alot!@!@!

Wed. 9/18/13 11:00pm efd:

wow, thanks JTE! That really IS saying a lot!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:00pm Uncle Michael:

Geez, Simon...those tickets are a little pricey.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:02pm Barkevious Shabazz:

Shopping Bag. Song of the century.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:04pm pacific standard simon:

I know -- crazy prices, huh? Good thing I was making as much as $3.35 an hour in those days!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:05pm Uncle Michael:

Think about it...concert tickets for two-hours' wages. And today?

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:07pm pacific standard simon:

You're gonna make me cry.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...ooo - been sleepy sleepy - loved that set tho' !...

Wed. 9/18/13 11:13pm Pine:

WFMU my constant companion for late night last minute coding

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:16pm pacific standard simon:

Your delight in speaking French is palpable, Evan.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:18pm Uncle Michael:

Cara Mia...you spoke FRENCH!

Wed. 9/18/13 11:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...The Addams Family never misses efd...

Wed. 9/18/13 11:19pm Alex of Chicago:

Coding made me a WFMU supporter. You know how it is.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:24pm Uncle Michael:

Since I glommed onto a Give the Drummer Radio time slot, I've barely had time to tweak php for my blog. WFMU has ruined me as a coder. Then again...I was already pretty lame at it.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:24pm Uncle Michael:

White Hills always makes me think of Hawkwind.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:25pm Carmichael:

Dude, you played Barrance Whitfield! But you know that.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...hidden tracks & tricks - very 90s ??...
...Sounds like 'Be Your Dog' in Space - must be - yes! White Hills...

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:26pm Uncle Michael:

I have efd to blame for Free Fall, White Hills and maybe even for Endless Boogie.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:26pm steve:

a little late but id like to acknowledge the genius of Shopping Bag

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:26pm pacific standard simon:

I see the resemblance.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:27pm Tome:

White HILLS yea yea yea !!!

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:29pm Uncle Michael:

Space is the place.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:32pm pacific standard simon:

If I had a radio show, I would take great delight in annoying the listeners with those Bob Calvert "poetry" tracks on the Hawkwind records.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:32pm Uncle Michael:

How about some "Uncle Ray" from Moody Blues records?

Wed. 9/18/13 11:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...I have a benfactor to blame for taking me to a White Hills show in Amherst, MA that Thurston Moore put on w/ Tall Firs & Cave of Time & Awesome Color - that was *great*...

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:34pm pacific standard simon:

Bet there's at least a 1 hour show in mashing up all the rock album "poetry". Jim Morrison alone....

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:35pm Uncle Michael:

I saw the Midge Ure Ultravox but not the John Foxx Ultravox.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...plus there's some Julian Cope connection w/ White Hills...sooo...

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:36pm Uncle Michael:

Jim was already mashed.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:36pm pacific standard simon:

Sour mashed.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:37pm efd:

Same here, UM (re Ultravox).

Wed. 9/18/13 11:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

- quite likely...Dickie Peterson of Blue Cheer:'Sometimes Jim would dance *by himself* w/ the whiskey bottle'...

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:37pm Uncle Michael:

I'm one of those "The Doors was a comedy act" people.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:39pm Uncle Michael:

efd, I saw Ultravox open for someone...XTC or the Buzzcocks...can't remember.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

- I'm one of those freakin' love The Doors people.
...Do I still have Ultravox's 1st album somewhere - or did I lose that along the way??...been thinking about it...

Wed. 9/18/13 11:41pm efd:

I saw them at Hurrah, a great small club in NYC in the late '70s and early '80s. I remember boldly asking Billy Currie if he was mad about how successful Gary Numan was getting.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:41pm Uncle Michael:

and?

Wed. 9/18/13 11:42pm efd:

He wasn't.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:43pm Uncle Michael:

Whew.

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:43pm Barkevious Shabazz:

A crow and a baby.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...Caw Wah?

Wed. 9/18/13 11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:45pm pacific standard simon:

I copped a feel of the singer for Eddie & The Hot Rods -- what can I say? I was young and drunk and foolish.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:45pm trish:

..triggering an 'it's over!!??' here

🎃 Wed. 9/18/13 11:46pm Fuzzy:

Wed. 9/18/13 11:48pm Alex of Chicago:

Wed. 9/18/13 11:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

efd: This is a Dave you know you know.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:49pm steve:

some arbitrary thing still reminds me of a line from kids in the hall nearly 7 days a week

Wed. 9/18/13 11:50pm trish:

sheesh, it's tomorrow at the Dakota.
(Thanks Evan)

Wed. 9/18/13 11:52pm Holly in NC:

I have tons of kids in the hall episodes I recorded onto vhs back in the day, I really need to find a player. And a TV, for that matter.

Wed. 9/18/13 11:54pm Holly in NC:

I can't wait til all the Persian Claws lps are sold so they'll finally release a digital download. ...

Wed. 9/18/13 11:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:
