WFMU: The Evan "Funk" Davies Show: Playlist from May 12, 2009

Listener comments!
	11:07pm Cecile: This is a great tune. Good to finally tune in live.
	11:13pm efd: whoa, it's famous daytime commenter Cecile! Hi Cecile!
	11:13pm Cecile: Yeah, it's me. Taking a trip over to the dark side. ;D
	11:14pm Cecile: diggin it!
	11:16pm Joe: Hey Cecile! Welcome to hell. EFD I am very much liking the way this show is going.
	11:20pm Cecile: Oh, you are kidding me with this song. I haven't heard this since the 8-track that we played at Big Boy in 1979.
	11:21pm Cecile: And it was awesome until I cleaned one too many chicken fryers to it. I also can't listen to Blue Jay Way or Can't Get you OUt of my Head without twitching either.
	11:23pm Your Old 8 Track: I am now 79 feet under the surface of a landfill. But I was utterly, gloriously cool at the time.
	11:24pm Cecile: You brought me many happy hours, 8 track. Love the Sloan
	11:25pm E.L.: I showed up just in time for SLOAN! YAY!
	11:25pm dave: i challenge any thinking human being to not sing along at the top of their lungs with 'who taught you to live like that'. g'wan. just TRY.
	11:26pm rachel jensen: whats up evan?? when will you goin to spain?? cause you WILL BE TERRIBLY MISSED=( will you be playing some k.c & the sunshine band PRETTY PLEASE,,it's great to be godmother!!!!!=)
	11:27pm efd: dave, I'm not up to that challenge.
	11:27pm Cecile: I am not wagering against you, dave.
	11:28pm Joe: Ah! It's that time of year, is it? Guess I'll be making myself a sandich. God this song makes me hungry.
	11:28pm Matt: HOAGIEFEST IS BACK!
	11:28pm Laurie: omg is it Hoagiefest time again? Turkey So Fine >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Five Five Dollar Five Dollar Footlong
	11:33pm Amanda: Aw man, speaking of "that time of year," I missed E.L.'s birthday, right? It was yesterday?
	11:36pm E.L.: Nope. It's happening now!
	11:40pm rachel jensen: evan-- my birthday will be two months from 2nite,,,in other news toni daytona won't be back for a while she's taking care of brad,,,,
	11:42pm Tom: Trying to log in. Big fan of Cassie St. Onge is she on tonight?
	11:44pm E.L.: rachel— I marked my iCal.
	11:44pm Amanda: Yaaaay HB, E.L.! Tinted Windows could be for you considering your Hanson affiliations.
	11:45pm Cecile: you know, there were 2-3 tracks on James Iha's solo rec that were good
	11:47pm efd: is that Tom G.? I think you may have confused Caissie's re-tweet of my tweet! She is not actually here. Hi Rachel, thanks for the Toni D update. Happy Birthday E.L.!
	11:47pm Joe: I refuse to believe that.
	11:51pm Cecile: I hearded them. They were pretty good. Considering I didn't like Smashing Piumpkins that much. But is there anything that Adam Schlesinger doesn't do well? I gotta check out that record.
	11:51pm E.L.: My (our) grudge with Hanson is over. It's funny hearing Bun E. Carlos and Robert Pollard back to back. They shared a ticket to one of the best shows I've ever seen. The Big Dipper/Boston Spaceships show would be in contention as well. This Thermals song K's the A. Thanks Amanda and EFD!
	11:53pm Tom: Different Tom. Thanks. Tried to listen. Your website wouldn't let me!
	11:54pm Cecile: I remember that tour! It was pretty damn great.
	11:57pm rachel jensen: well evan i have to skip out now i'm sorry evan,,i'll give toni d. your regards. have great fun in spain evan,,,see ya soon,,,,=)
	12:02am rachel jensen: nobody does it better than evan!!!!!!!! luv ya,,
	12:02am Cecile: night, night have to miss the tix, ah wlel. Have a great show!
	12:15am brass monkey: i changed my comment. thanks math!
	12:16am brass monkey: i like this track i hope it never ends.
	12:19am E.L.: You know the Midnight Ticket Oasis is a smash when Evan has trouble keeping up with the playlist.
	12:22am efd: you got that right, E.L. I'd have thought a 9-minute song would have been enough! I could have used a few more minutes myself, brass monkey.
	12:23am Joe: It takes alot to throw the man off his game. Davies, if you keep playing this Sole album, I'm gonna have to go out and buy it. Or make like Stingy D and smack it into my possession.
	12:24am brass monkey_01: i want to use that for my power point demo. I think it would really tie the slide presentation format together and really nail it for me
	12:27am E.L.: Is this Bob Log III related?
	12:27am rachel jensen: i'm back just to wish evan a DELIGHTFUL upcomming vacation!!!!!!
	12:29am efd: thanks Rachel! It's still a couple of weeks off. E.L., good question - I don't know offhand.
	12:33am brass monkey: no one can eat fifty egg
	12:34am E.L.: Ah! Found their myspace page— and no. they're from Australia apparently.
	12:36am rachel j.: efd i'll give toni d. your regards,,,nite nite.
	12:42am Amanda: That was so cute, the Radio City jam. Kind of Joe Jackson-y...? Nick Lowe-y? Name other things I enjoy, it reminds me of them.
	12:47am Joe: Puppies!
	12:49am Amanda: Aw! Red haired boys?
	12:49am E.L.: Ha ha! And eating nice meals? Or was that rejected?
	12:57am Amanda: Nope, that was in there. And one of the remaining things I like (in the very small list), of course, is this very radio show.
	1:03am Michael from the Left Coast: Hey EFD--Big ups for playing my old friend Kid Congo! I'm behind on the stream (I'm still in the talk break before it, but I can see it in the player).
	1:04am Michael from the Left Coast: Yes, he was in the Gun Club (I believe he was either just before or after Ward Dotson)
	1:04am efd: hey MIchael, thanks!
	1:10am wonder woman: efd you will be back next week..rite??
	1:13am E.L.: I have to crash. EFD, have a great time in Spain!
