	9:19pm efd: not gonna argue either of those points, Walt!
	9:26pm BriJet: Helllo
	9:27pm Cliff: A Giant Dog is a name of a band, right? We're not talking literally a giant dog in the studio (though this being WFMU, you can never be sure)
	9:27pm Kat in Chicago: Hi errybody. I'm still at work :(
	9:30pm Cliff: What other bands out there start with an indeterminate article? The only other one I can think of is A Raincoat
	9:30pm Kat in Chicago: Cliff: good thing it's a band, since Evan was just talking about two people in a giant dog. I'm reminded of Groucho: ''Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read.''
	9:30pm Kat in Chicago: A Certain Ratio, for one
	9:30pm Listener Julian: This band is so good it's actually frightening
	9:31pm Cliff: That was quite a start!
	9:31pm Figgsrock: A House.
	9:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...no no guys - take a minute to warm up & build some energy...we quite understand... ... ! ...
	9:32pm geezerette: Q:What does a GIANT DOG play? A:The GIANT BONES.
	9:33pm Cliff: Antipasto & Awesomeband, yes!!
	9:34pm efd: @RRN63 that's just not how they roll.
	9:35pm Danne D: Yeah EFD :) Hey Funk Friends :) Woohoo A GIANT DOG!
	9:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: : D
	9:36pm efd: @Danne D, shouldn't you be watching hockey?
	9:37pm BadGuyZero: Andrew from A Giant Dog previously appeared on Evan's show in June 2012 when he was part of OBN IIIs.
	9:37pm efd: And Graham from A Giant Dog too!
	9:38pm efd: @Kat, sorry you're still at work! I hope you're able to listen at least...?
	9:38pm Kat in Chicago: oh yes EFD, got the headphones on
	9:41pm efd: [thumbs up emoji]
	9:45pm Listener Julian: Now I know what it stands for!
	9:45pm IFisher: dig
	9:45pm Cliff: Thank you EFD for bringing us A Giant Dog tonight!
	9:45pm Listener Julian: Yeah, thanks Evan!
	9:45pm efd: my absolute pleasure! Thank you all for listening!
	9:46pm Mailman Tom: Are they from Denmark?
	9:46pm Listener Julian: What was it like to record them?
	9:46pm geezerette: WOW!
	9:46pm Listener Julian: how does she do that
	9:47pm efd: @Mailman Tom they're from Austin TX!
	9:47pm efd: @Listener Julian, it was a blast! Sonically and otherwise!
	9:47pm Kat in Chicago: I'm not going to feel quite the same about the WFMU call letters from now on...
	9:48pm efd: you should have heard the one I had to edit out!
	9:49pm Kat in Chicago: I can imagine!
	9:49pm Cliff: I'm seeing a couple college friends in a couple weeks who live in Austin nowadays, I gotta ask them if they've seen this band (and if not, they better!)
	9:50pm Kat in Chicago: I have a couple of friends who are big fans.
	9:51pm efd: I'm really glad I was able to get them in this time -- tried to set something up with them a year or two back but the scheduling didn't work.
	9:51pm Walt: Hmm they are probably onstage right now at The Earl in Atlanta (reasonably near me).
	9:51pm efd: Get off the internet and go, Walt!!
	9:51pm jon: so good. thanx for making this happen efd
	9:53pm efd: you guys are gonna have to check the Free Music Archive in a week or two to get the song that was too HOT for the federally-regulated airwaves.
	9:53pm Listener Julian: Oh my goodness
	9:53pm Cliff: What's the song title Evan?
	9:54pm efd: it's called "Photograph."
	9:55pm Listener Julian: oh snap they played this at Cake Shop too!
	9:55pm efd: such a good song to cover, and a great version!
	9:56pm Chris M.: nice
	9:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: This is the best giant dog I've heard since Clifford.
	9:57pm Cliff: Is that so KenHP?
	9:59pm Emily Elizabeth: Let me bring Clifford to the station and we'll see about that!
	10:00pm BadGuyZero: Martin Short is not a dog.
	10:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ... ! ...
	10:01pm Cliff: And I never saw that movie with him in it with my name as the title
	10:02pm Danne D: Yay what a great set :)
	10:02pm kevlicki: Evan, Thanks for playing AGD on your show last week. Heard them Wed, a friend texted me the next day to invite me out to see some Austin band. I was super stoked he had listened to your show too, so we went to both the cake shop and our wicked lady show. They were all really personable and sweet!
	10:02pm Danne D: @efd lol yeah I should be watching hockey - but had to check in :)
	10:03pm Cliff: Fantastic set, thank you A Giant Dog and EFD!!
	10:05pm Uncle Michael: Watching baseball...checking in!
	10:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Cliff - I meant this Clifford: www.scholastic.com... @Danne D - It's a one-goal game at the second intermission.
	10:08pm Uncle Michael: Here it comes!
	10:08pm Danne D: YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:08pm Kat in Chicago: It's official now
	10:09pm Danne D: CLAPCLAP
	10:10pm Uncle Michael: Heading your way, Kat.
	10:10pm herb.nyc: this song is making me and my cat smile. the excitement being caused may just break the internet!
	10:10pm Danne D: dang one round early
	10:10pm Danne D: CLAPCLAP
	10:10pm Danne D: hard to time that :)
	10:10pm Cliff: Good grief Ken from HP, I know exactly who you meant, my parents got me all the books as a little kid ;)
	10:10pm Danne D: Evan's just gonna have to keep playing it so I can time that right ;)
	10:11pm Danne D: @KFHP - keeping up via the magic of the phone :) Thanks :)
	10:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Cliff - No worries. On the internet, it's hard to know when to be too literal. I had some of the books,m too, and my kids enjoyed the books and TV show.
	10:16pm Uncle Michael: On the internet no one knows you're A Giant Dog.
	10:16pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): Hey Everyone!
	10:18pm Cliff: No problemo Ken from HP. Y'all here are a lot more easy-going than some of the weirdos I've seen on Reddit
	10:21pm herb.nyc: i just told a buncha people of Starbreaker "the sound of summer", then got reminded (in a roundabout way) of Bob Starr's "stop this energy crisis", which efd played in nov 2014.
	10:29pm BadGuyZero: Cait Brennan's "Debutante" is available on 8-track.
	10:36pm efd: that seems appropriate.
	10:36pm coelacanth: hello efd and funklings
	10:36pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): I saw Those Pretty Wrongs a couple of months ago when they toured Australia.
	10:37pm coelacanth: UM @10:16 though sometimes there are hints...
	10:38pm herb.nyc: the 8-track comment reminds me of the upcoming Archive of Contemporary Music sale, which begins on june 11 for 2 wks. they once had an 8-track recorder, which woulda been great to make your own band's tapes. but the machine mighta been broken.
	10:42pm Ken From Hyde Park: What a great show tonight and it's just barely half over.
	10:42pm efd: Cool you got to see Those Pretty Wrongs, Spatulator! Good show, I trust?
	10:43pm BadGuyZero: I wonder if anyone played CDs in their car via one of those CD-to-cassette tape adapters with the cassette end of the adapter in a cassette-to-8-track adapter.
	10:43pm Cliff: Gotta go, thanks again Evan & A Giant Dog! :D
	10:44pm herb.nyc: i just noticed Spatulator is from Australia. and since efd has played Goon Sax, has he played Robert Forster's latest? or do we have to wait for Primavera to hear dad?
	10:45pm efd: thanks for listening, Cliff!
	10:46pm coelacanth: BGZ, i've tried those -at least 3 different ones. none worked.
	10:47pm melinda: Enjoying the tunes tonight.
	10:48pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): @efd: It was a good set. For the encore, they did 4 or 5 Big Star songs. It was a venue that was part of the bowling club in the suburb I live in. So tiny but nicely packed. I think the night before, they had supported Wilco in a 500 seat venue that is in the suburb next to me and that I sometimes jog past.
	10:48pm efd: cool, thanks melinda!
	10:54pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): That Goon Sax song was pretty funny. In particular, the line about looking like Shane Warne, who is an Australian cricketer, womanizer, major douche bag, former advertisement advocate of a hair replacement company.
	10:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Are there CD players that send the output to some FM frequency and you set the radio tuner to that?
	10:56pm IFisher: Signing off and reaffirming new-found affection for A Giant Dog - tho still thoroughly baffled about the dearth of the indefinite article in band names. I feel the grammatical torrent will linger for a while. Thanks for the groovy stuff, EFD!
	10:56pm Bootsie: The name "Goon Sax" reminds me of "Gunne Sax" — a prairie-ish line of clothing that was popular in the '70s.
	10:57pm IFisher: that was some major flounce happening, Bootsie: Gunne Sax
	11:01pm JakeGould: Hey! Whatsup.
	11:02pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): @Bootsie: In Australia, "Goon" also means the cheapest nastiest cask wine. @Ken: I don't think so but there are devices that plug into a 3.5 mm output jack that can then transmit to a FM frequency.
	11:04pm ice in Bklyn: DJ Creamo Coyl played this lost video short film of Launderette last week on his FB PAGe!
	11:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: A Giant Dog played earlier and there was Tacocat. Will Modest Mouse get airplay tonight?
	11:04pm JakeGould: @Ken: Yes, there are FM transmitters of varying quality that work like that. Do a Google search for “FM transmitter” and you’ll see tons of different things selling for as little as $10.
	11:05pm ice in Bklyn: A real spin age blaster
	11:07pm JakeGould: @KenFromHydePark: Also more info here on Wikipediapalooza. en.wikipedia.org...
	11:09pm Mika: Love GarNu App crashes when i try to share!
	11:11pm ice in Bklyn: Was a sweet short music video
	11:13pm coelacanth: i don't see any mini fm transmitters that channel an analogue audio signal. they (so far) all require a phone to program them.
	11:13pm coelacanth: oh. never mind! i didn't try wikipedia.
	11:14pm cheri: evan, this show was a real success! thank you and goodnight evan!
	11:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Jake. I'm not trying to play CDs myself. My FM comment was in reference to BGZ's comment at 10:43.
	11:15pm JakeGould: Oh… A wry hipster snide comment. Never mind!
	11:17pm coelacanth: i actually never thought about it; but in my car the fm has much better bass and probably twice as much volume as the cassette. i might try this.
	11:20pm coelacanth: Jake, if that's directed at me, you're making incorrect assumptions.
	11:21pm Kat in Chicago: Going home at last. Thanks for the tunes, Evan, definitely alleviated my boredom at work!
	11:21pm ice in Bklyn: The fm sound is clearly present on this 1978-9 marantz 2252b iPod
	11:21pm JakeGould: @JakeGould: Directed to the FM transmitter discussion in general.
	11:21pm Kat in Chicago: @Bootsie I thought of Gunne Sax too!
	11:21pm JakeGould: @coelacanth: ^^^^
	11:23pm efd: enjoy the rest of your night, Kat!
	11:29pm BadGuyZero: This was the first Wire album I ever bought.
	11:30pm bkd69: 80's synthpop is best listened to on cassette. The size of the ferrous particles on the tap have a particular resonance with the waveforms created 80's vintage synthesizers.
	11:31pm bkd69: I think I had this Wire song preceded by either TMBG or Bowie on one of my mixtapes way back in the elder days.n One of my faves, naturally.
	11:35pm efd: @bkd69 funny you should mention Bowie...
	11:38pm JakeGould: There you go! Synergy!
	11:38pm bkd69: Great minds, and all that.
	11:39pm coelacanth: i do like the sound of cassettes, if they're in good shape, and i have many cassettes; but little 80s synthpop. i come here for that.
	11:41pm BadGuyZero: I bought "The Ideal Copy" on cassette because it included the "Snakedrill" EP and a few live tracks as bonus stuff on side B.
	11:45pm coelacanth: "never not fun"? is that a name change? an offshoot?
	11:48pm JakeGould: @coelacanth: There is a podcast called “Never Not Funny.”
	11:49pm efd: @coel, more like a typing error on my part and then reading the incorrectly typed words on the air.
	11:50pm JakeGould: Restaurant name: “Not Now Won Ton”
	11:52pm coelacanth: haha! that's why i couldn't find info on it!
	11:54pm JakeGould: And of course thanks to the Internet, my joke is late by about 25 years. www.discogs.com...
	11:57pm coelacanth: ha! 'never heard of that.
	11:59pm Danne D: Thanks EFD :) Take care everyone :)
	11:59pm coelacanth: Thanks Evan! i have to come back to a giant dog. i missed it.
	12:00am coelacanth: "taqn"?

	9:57pm Cliff: Is that so KenHP?
	9:59pm Emily Elizabeth: Let me bring Clifford to the station and we'll see about that!
	10:00pm BadGuyZero: Martin Short is not a dog.
	10:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ... ! ...
	10:01pm Cliff: And I never saw that movie with him in it with my name as the title
	10:02pm Danne D: Yay what a great set :)
	10:02pm kevlicki: Evan, Thanks for playing AGD on your show last week. Heard them Wed, a friend texted me the next day to invite me out to see some Austin band. I was super stoked he had listened to your show too, so we went to both the cake shop and our wicked lady show. They were all really personable and sweet!
	10:02pm Danne D: @efd lol yeah I should be watching hockey - but had to check in :)
	10:03pm Cliff: Fantastic set, thank you A Giant Dog and EFD!!
	10:05pm Uncle Michael: Watching baseball...checking in!
	10:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Cliff - I meant this Clifford: www.scholastic.com... @Danne D - It's a one-goal game at the second intermission.
	10:08pm Uncle Michael: Here it comes!
	10:08pm Danne D: YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	10:08pm Kat in Chicago: It's official now
	10:09pm Danne D: CLAPCLAP
	10:10pm Uncle Michael: Heading your way, Kat.
	10:10pm herb.nyc: this song is making me and my cat smile. the excitement being caused may just break the internet!
	10:10pm Danne D: dang one round early
	10:10pm Danne D: CLAPCLAP
	10:10pm Danne D: hard to time that :)
	10:10pm Cliff: Good grief Ken from HP, I know exactly who you meant, my parents got me all the books as a little kid ;)
	10:10pm Danne D: Evan's just gonna have to keep playing it so I can time that right ;)
	10:11pm Danne D: @KFHP - keeping up via the magic of the phone :) Thanks :)
	10:12pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Cliff - No worries. On the internet, it's hard to know when to be too literal. I had some of the books,m too, and my kids enjoyed the books and TV show.
	10:16pm Uncle Michael: On the internet no one knows you're A Giant Dog.
	10:16pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): Hey Everyone!
	10:18pm Cliff: No problemo Ken from HP. Y'all here are a lot more easy-going than some of the weirdos I've seen on Reddit
	10:21pm herb.nyc: i just told a buncha people of Starbreaker "the sound of summer", then got reminded (in a roundabout way) of Bob Starr's "stop this energy crisis", which efd played in nov 2014.
	10:29pm BadGuyZero: Cait Brennan's "Debutante" is available on 8-track.
	10:36pm efd: that seems appropriate.
	10:36pm coelacanth: hello efd and funklings
	10:36pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): I saw Those Pretty Wrongs a couple of months ago when they toured Australia.
	10:37pm coelacanth: UM @10:16 though sometimes there are hints...
	10:38pm herb.nyc: the 8-track comment reminds me of the upcoming Archive of Contemporary Music sale, which begins on june 11 for 2 wks. they once had an 8-track recorder, which woulda been great to make your own band's tapes. but the machine mighta been broken.
	10:42pm Ken From Hyde Park: What a great show tonight and it's just barely half over.
	10:42pm efd: Cool you got to see Those Pretty Wrongs, Spatulator! Good show, I trust?
	10:43pm BadGuyZero: I wonder if anyone played CDs in their car via one of those CD-to-cassette tape adapters with the cassette end of the adapter in a cassette-to-8-track adapter.
	10:43pm Cliff: Gotta go, thanks again Evan & A Giant Dog! :D
	10:44pm herb.nyc: i just noticed Spatulator is from Australia. and since efd has played Goon Sax, has he played Robert Forster's latest? or do we have to wait for Primavera to hear dad?
	10:45pm efd: thanks for listening, Cliff!
	10:46pm coelacanth: BGZ, i've tried those -at least 3 different ones. none worked.
	10:47pm melinda: Enjoying the tunes tonight.
	10:48pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): @efd: It was a good set. For the encore, they did 4 or 5 Big Star songs. It was a venue that was part of the bowling club in the suburb I live in. So tiny but nicely packed. I think the night before, they had supported Wilco in a 500 seat venue that is in the suburb next to me and that I sometimes jog past.
	10:48pm efd: cool, thanks melinda!
	10:54pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): That Goon Sax song was pretty funny. In particular, the line about looking like Shane Warne, who is an Australian cricketer, womanizer, major douche bag, former advertisement advocate of a hair replacement company.
	10:55pm Ken From Hyde Park: Are there CD players that send the output to some FM frequency and you set the radio tuner to that?
	10:56pm IFisher: Signing off and reaffirming new-found affection for A Giant Dog - tho still thoroughly baffled about the dearth of the indefinite article in band names. I feel the grammatical torrent will linger for a while. Thanks for the groovy stuff, EFD!
	10:56pm Bootsie: The name "Goon Sax" reminds me of "Gunne Sax" — a prairie-ish line of clothing that was popular in the '70s.
	10:57pm IFisher: that was some major flounce happening, Bootsie: Gunne Sax
	11:01pm JakeGould: Hey! Whatsup.
	11:02pm Spatulator (formerly elwyn5150): @Bootsie: In Australia, "Goon" also means the cheapest nastiest cask wine. @Ken: I don't think so but there are devices that plug into a 3.5 mm output jack that can then transmit to a FM frequency.
	11:04pm ice in Bklyn: DJ Creamo Coyl played this lost video short film of Launderette last week on his FB PAGe!
	11:04pm Ken From Hyde Park: A Giant Dog played earlier and there was Tacocat. Will Modest Mouse get airplay tonight?
	11:04pm JakeGould: @Ken: Yes, there are FM transmitters of varying quality that work like that. Do a Google search for “FM transmitter” and you’ll see tons of different things selling for as little as $10.
	11:05pm ice in Bklyn: A real spin age blaster
	11:07pm JakeGould: @KenFromHydePark: Also more info here on Wikipediapalooza. en.wikipedia.org...
	11:09pm Mika: Love GarNu App crashes when i try to share!
	11:11pm ice in Bklyn: Was a sweet short music video
	11:13pm coelacanth: i don't see any mini fm transmitters that channel an analogue audio signal. they (so far) all require a phone to program them.
	11:13pm coelacanth: oh. never mind! i didn't try wikipedia.
	11:14pm cheri: evan, this show was a real success! thank you and goodnight evan!
	11:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Jake. I'm not trying to play CDs myself. My FM comment was in reference to BGZ's comment at 10:43.
	11:15pm JakeGould: Oh… A wry hipster snide comment. Never mind!
	11:17pm coelacanth: i actually never thought about it; but in my car the fm has much better bass and probably twice as much volume as the cassette. i might try this.
	11:20pm coelacanth: Jake, if that's directed at me, you're making incorrect assumptions.
	11:21pm Kat in Chicago: Going home at last. Thanks for the tunes, Evan, definitely alleviated my boredom at work!
	11:21pm ice in Bklyn: The fm sound is clearly present on this 1978-9 marantz 2252b iPod
	11:21pm JakeGould: @JakeGould: Directed to the FM transmitter discussion in general.
	11:21pm Kat in Chicago: @Bootsie I thought of Gunne Sax too!
	11:21pm JakeGould: @coelacanth: ^^^^
	11:23pm efd: enjoy the rest of your night, Kat!
	11:29pm BadGuyZero: This was the first Wire album I ever bought.
	11:30pm bkd69: 80's synthpop is best listened to on cassette. The size of the ferrous particles on the tap have a particular resonance with the waveforms created 80's vintage synthesizers.
	11:31pm bkd69: I think I had this Wire song preceded by either TMBG or Bowie on one of my mixtapes way back in the elder days.n One of my faves, naturally.
	11:35pm efd: @bkd69 funny you should mention Bowie...
	11:38pm JakeGould: There you go! Synergy!
	11:38pm bkd69: Great minds, and all that.
	11:39pm coelacanth: i do like the sound of cassettes, if they're in good shape, and i have many cassettes; but little 80s synthpop. i come here for that.
	11:41pm BadGuyZero: I bought "The Ideal Copy" on cassette because it included the "Snakedrill" EP and a few live tracks as bonus stuff on side B.
	11:45pm coelacanth: "never not fun"? is that a name change? an offshoot?
	11:48pm JakeGould: @coelacanth: There is a podcast called “Never Not Funny.”
	11:49pm efd: @coel, more like a typing error on my part and then reading the incorrectly typed words on the air.
	11:50pm JakeGould: Restaurant name: “Not Now Won Ton”
	11:52pm coelacanth: haha! that's why i couldn't find info on it!
	11:54pm JakeGould: And of course thanks to the Internet, my joke is late by about 25 years. www.discogs.com...
	11:57pm coelacanth: ha! 'never heard of that.
	11:59pm Danne D: Thanks EFD :) Take care everyone :)
	11:59pm coelacanth: Thanks Evan! i have to come back to a giant dog. i missed it.
	12:00am coelacanth: "taqn"?
