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.

Greetings Evan and all the listeners.
  9:04pm
funkster:

virgin board, w00t

scratch that. sloppy seconds!
  9:08pm
JMD:

9 o'clock sounds like some nice, worn out vinyl. Neat!
  9:13pm
?:

JMD, you are correct!

Greetings funkster, and hola Richard! Thanks all for tuning in.
  9:14pm
funkster:

who was that masked man?! :-)
  9:14pm
Frank:

Lamest KISS song ever?
  9:15pm
efd:

Frank, it has one specific redeeming quality that we will discuss shortly.
  9:16pm
Frank:

The paper gun that came with the LP was cool, though (I still have mine!)
  9:17pm
funkster:

Frank is a closet KISS completist. :-)
  9:19pm
Frank:

I saw them at the Cow Palace in SF on the day Elvis died (with Cheap Trick opening!). Gawd, I'm old.
  9:21pm
efd:

the day Elvis died I was working as an intern in Boston's all-news radio station, and saw the bulletins coming in on the teletype (and passed them to the editor on duty). (Also old)
  9:22pm
funkster:

I was in college and, during the summer, with my family in Brasil (my dad worked there then). <--- no spring chicken
  9:25pm
Danne D:

Hey EFD and Funk Fans. Doing the archive thing with this one - busy with work. Sure it'll be a great show (as it pretty much always is to borrow a phrase). Enjoy!
  9:30pm
frisco kid:

Elvis died August 16, 1977 - I had to look it up. That was the summer before my sophomore year in high school, I was probably partying pretty hard, and I went to Germany on exchange that summer. I remember his death being a big deal, though.
  9:39pm
Bobby J:

ROCK JUSTICE! San Francisco - Summer of 1979. Boy do I remember it well 'cause the local AOR station promoted the LIVING HELL out of it during every break. It sounded AWFUL and thus I never went to go see it.
  9:39pm
?:

hiya evan & danne,,,it looks like i made another friend,,,julie
  9:40pm
funkster:

hey Frank, this page confirms your memory of date and location, and even gives the tour setlist... how could they have left out "then she kissed me"?????

  9:41pm
Stevel:

How can I walk the dogs when efd is on? Maybe I'll just lay out more newspaper and get the air freshener.
  9:46pm
efd:

Steve, I can't say I endorse such behavior but I appreciate the sentiment!

Bobby, thanks for confirming that Rock Justice was an actual stage show!
  9:47pm

  10:27pm
efd:

I like to think of it as an oceanic ebb and flow....
  10:27pm
Evil Brady (aka Dave B):

never underestimate the power of rock!

\m/ (>_<) \m/
  10:28pm
Billy Jam:

Yes it was - and thanks for the mention of Friday's show with the KUSF IN Exile guys.......Actually I just extended the series into June with two additional shows on June 3rd and June 10th. One of which Ken/WFMU will be in SF for and do a guest DJ spot on since he is very much engrained in the Save KUSF fight.....HEY KAT - thanks for mentioning that BBC doc which I did not know about but would love to see and now will track down - thanks
  10:28pm
Stevel:

Flowing nicely. Why do Nordic bands warm things up so much, (Must hear more Kvelertak. They're almost as good as The Renegades.)
  10:29pm
Julie:

Billy, that is good news the KUSF shows, especially with Ken!
  10:30pm

  10:39pm
Evil Brady (aka Dave B):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gc9ZPPyVn7g

Listen to the Rockin Bird!
  10:39pm
Julie:

I am convinced that Bobby was the most "evil Brady"
  10:39pm
efd:

see ya, Dave!

Julie - I like the Ann Margrock version, but I'm just not feeling it for the show.
  10:40pm
Evil Brady (aka Dave B):

It was Oliver, the illegitimate bastard cousin/son
  10:42pm
Holly in NC:

2 songs too late,dang. Hi all!
  10:43pm
efd:

also, Stevel, thanks for falling for my Renegades fakery. :)

Hi Holly! Dang, you just missed it!
  10:43pm
Julie:

Poor Oliver. I think they buried him in the backyard with Tiger.
  10:45pm
Droll:

is wrong words one of the XTC pseudonyms?
  10:46pm
Stevel:

I am an eternal sucker. Pretty much OK with that role in life.

Hey Holly.
  10:47pm
efd:

Droll! It's been forever, nice to see you!

And, no.
  10:47pm
Evil Brady (aka Dave B):

"Fluffy" was there first, Julie!
  10:48pm
frisco kid:

Setting Sons. A fantastic album that I don't own anymore for some stupid reason. I have all the others, not sure what the hell happened. Situation must be rectified.
  10:54pm
Holly in NC:

Anyone else LOVE the original version of 'Underwhelmed' ? From the Peppermint ep, not the totally inferior lp version.
  10:54pm
Kat:

@Billy Jam - it's in 6 parts, first part is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2BSRqR9QgI and click onwards from there. it's great.
  10:54pm
Aharon:

Well, are we gonna die, or are we gonna make it?
  10:55pm
Ironballs McGinty:

  10:58pm
cheri:

hello julie good to see you again
  10:59pm
Julie:

We're gonna die but we still got ten days...so it's party time!
  10:59pm
john:

Oh darn, just got here. Missed the whole Renegades portion of the show. Of course, with an hour to go, you can play them a dozen more times.

Oh, and gueule is somewhere between gull and rhyming with full. Can mean face or, when you're telling someone to shut it, mouth. Knew there'd be a reason for the French major one day...
  11:00pm
Julie:

I'm having a finewine moment
  11:01pm
cheri:

evan,,,there's no better friends than you & julie!!!!
  11:02pm
Julie:

Evan's an awful friend! He drank all the chocolate milk and didn't give ME any
  11:03pm
Droll:

[Blushing from being remembered since last EFD post May 12, 2008]. I've been listening all along (yes, it's just like a mix tape someone talks over).
But more importantly, you're always proving you're the man on FMU for CC. I know April Wine is nearby.
  11:05pm
cheri:

evan i think you buy should some chocolate milk for julie,,
  11:05pm
Kat:

going to the DEMF Memorial Day weekend...different kind of Detroit music...Dirtbombs are playing tho!
  11:06pm
Holly in NC:

Detroit Music is reminding me of Roscoe Music. Not a bad thing, I hasten to add ;-)
  11:07pm
Adam in Lynnwood:

@Julie, never you fret. The rapture is sponsored by Hershey's.
  11:07pm
Julie:

@Adam ooooh...so instead of blood pouring in the streets it'll be chocolate sauce? SCORE!
  11:07pm
Holly in NC:

er, Rosco. Only Brits can get away with extraneous vowels.
  11:10pm
Adam in Lynnwood:

Oh, yeah, that won't be blood. Simply cherry chocolate excelsior. We each get a palm's worth.
  11:11pm
Julie:

May as well go out tasty!
  11:12pm
Adam in Lynnwood:

...and light of body and mind.
  11:13pm
cheri:

well evan & julie i have to split for the night,, julie make sure that evan buys you more chocolate milk. thnx for your company and g'night!!
  11:14pm
Billy Jam:

@KAT thanks! @ EFD - loving every song!
  11:24pm
efd:

thanks Billy, much appreciated!

goodnight, Cheri.

Hey Adam, thanks for listening and commenting!

Droll, I'm actually overdue for some April Wine action but don't have any with me tonight. Stay tuned... (and also check out Amanda's show from last week on the Give The Drummer Radio stream!)
  11:38pm
Adam in Lynnwood:

@efd, thank YOU for the roundabout trip on the cyclonic whip.
  11:39pm
Holly in NC:

I really like that white noise sound.
  11:40pm
efd:

I was just talking about them to Mo Tuffy, one of Noah's henchmen. I totally missed that album when it was out, I need to make up for that.
  11:41pm
Kat:

love this last set.
  11:42pm
Stevel:

Hadn't heard this Insomniacs. Need to get this album very soon
  11:42pm
Sybil:

I'm here, lurking, eating chocolate covered raisins, and enjoying the music.

And working,darn it.

Thanks for the great background music (not that it sank into the background!)
  11:46pm
Holly in NC:

@Sybil -

You should check Sconza's DARK chocolate covered raisins. :-)
  11:46pm
Marc in Liverpool:

I would kill for some crispy M
  11:48pm
efd:

Hi Sybil, thanks for checking in - sorry about the work.

Kat, thanks, I was really enjoying how that set turned out myself!
  11:49pm
Marc in Liverpool:

M and Ms, that symbol and the rest of my message didn't show.
  11:50pm
Holly in NC:

@Marc - I thought y'all had smarties?
  11:52pm
efd:

  11:52pm
