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.

I primarily went new wave but I loved anything sarcastic, which led me to punk like DKs, FEAR and other scenes I'd have had a hard time hanging with in high school.

greetings efd and funkettes
wish i'd heard station to station, though i guess i can just put it on when i get home. -still i'm glad you're playing Bowie almost every show.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:28pm
chad from oregon:

Station To Station and Va Va Va Voom each also happened to be the opening songs for EFD's tributes to them last year! (I just happened to be revisiting the archive page as it was playing. My memory isn't *that* on)

Sounds okay, if post-punk is what they're supposed to sound like. If it's supposed to sound like honky-tonk or Bakersfield sound, then not.

Kevin Failure show is at trans-pecos, not exactly bushwick, my bad.
With Richard Papiercuts (!) and others..

I like songs that start with a drum fill.

a pretty short one though (the fill, not the song)

In fact, Track 7 reminded me (at the start) of a Sloan song, "Autobiography"

Thanks for the reminder about Tuns, I was out of commission when the album finally came out! And the Seams vocalist has a slight Al Stewart thing going on.
Avatar 11:35pm

Yay!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:41pm
efd:

Yeah, that Tuns album is solid! I did not detect that Stewartian quality in the Seams' singer, will have to listen more closely next time.

I'm pretty sure I have a record from a 90s indie band called seam, a little different from the seams....

Seam was a Chapel Hill band
