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.

Hi Evan and all. Excited to be listening live for the first time in ages.
Jake l've been looking for the 7" of "Janitor" for a while. One for less than $50, that is!

“Zolar X” Boom! www.discogs.com...

hey Eddy, nice to see you here in person, as it were!

Hey Evan, you timed your comment to the Melbourne band singing about a cat! Nice work!

Eddy in Australia:

P.S. Carolyn from School Damage, who was once in Chook Race, is now also in Parsnip, who have a great EP out. Only Nate K seems to have played it on WFMU so far. Get thee to the record library!
  9:49pm
Eddy in Australia:

Every time this Velveteen Rabbit song comes on, I think it's an outtake from the first Blondie album.
  9:55pm
Eddy in Australia:

Lumpy the cat belongs to Carolyn and Jake from the band. Jake is in about every second Melbourne/Geelong band (Ausmuteants, Hierophants, Alien Nosejob, School Damage, etc.).
  9:58pm
Eddy in Australia:

Evan: Well spotted on that mastering credit. I'm thinking of starting a band called Mastered by Mikey Young. I'll take a break from the comments board now ...

I’m on the edge of my seat wondering where you’re getting your lunch tomorrow, EFD.

It’s good to mix it up every once in a while. Happy eating!

Hey! Listening from Barranquilla Colombia!

awesome, thanks for tuning in!

I'd like to think I'm one of the world's biggest Curve fans and yes indeed that made me think of Curve's guitars. BTW Dean Garcia has various cool projects going now such as SPC ECO and S T F U but none are quite as good as Curve was.

Also an Australian listener. Lunchtime work radio for me in your tomorrow. Very much like this show, next one good too.

Greetings from Melbourne, Aitch.

Aitch, hi! What is happening tomorrow? Anything to look out for?

"Next one good too"?!? Wait, Aussies are so far in the future that they can hear EFD's next show?! Nyuk nyuk nyuk....

Cheers Eddy, tomorrow will be strangely disappointing M9, at least until lunchtime.

Bodega should play a double bill with Lithics!

Did someone say "lunch"?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:32pm

who knew that the mention of lunch would have such a chilling effect on the comments!

They might be hanging out until afternoon tea?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:47pm

could be!

I was holding back to give others a chance to comment. Lucky us Australians are here to keep you company, Evan.

Indeed! Thank you antipodes! :)
