	12:34pm Kat in the chat: Albini????!!!
	12:34pm Sunny: I can't believe this

	♥ 12:35pm mndave: This is so crushing. Remembering what he did for bands like Silkworm, in particular that helped them be financially able to record more albums
	12:35pm raoulvanhorn: Stunned by the news about Albini.
	♥ 12:35pm Will thee SG OCNY: Shellac was supposed to go on tour soon too, brutal
	12:38pm hopey: ↳ Kat in the chat @12:35 I'm feeling it for those very same reasons as well.
	12:38pm Matt en Queens: Now the day has a very heavy feel
	♥ 12:38pm listener 126464: The classic Eurostile.
	♥ 12:39pm Noir Lover: Thanks Steve
	♥ 12:39pm listener 126464: Good news is that The Bug Club have signed to Sub Pop.
	♥ 12:40pm Noir Lover: Wild Cherry, not to be confused with Buckcherry
	♥ 12:41pm Karl: I love Vinal Edge!
	♥ 12:43pm tim: ↳ Song: "freeze a yankee" by "the folkel minority" I heard the singer/guitarist of Mooney Suzuki say they had the solution to the energy crises. Then they busted into Electric Sweat.
	12:45pm Sunny: I got the impression that Steve was excellent in the kitchen as well.
	12:45pm Sunny: makes sense that a great engineer would also be a great chef
	12:46pm P-90: he was only 61? so young!
	♥ 12:48pm Will thee SG OCNY: The pre-order Shellac - To All Trains is available on lunchbox records.... Nevermind, sold out already lunchboxrecords.com...
	♥ 12:49pm WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "funkascensions" by "stardrive" How was ELP not before them on the synthesizer front?...or did I only half hear what was said?
	♥ 12:51pm tim: ↳ Will thee SG OCNY @12:48 You can probably go straight to Touch and go and order it still.
	♥ 12:51pm hunterfelt: This is like when John Peel died.
	♥ 12:51pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and sad people. RIP Mr. Albini.
	12:52pm f0f0 (: Hey Evan Funk Davies! Greetings to all the funky listeners!
	♥ 12:52pm pwrmnstr: No love for End of an Ear? Waterloo is for tourists. :P
	♥ 12:53pm pwrmnstr: I'm just going to go listen to Big Black and cry for the rest of the day.
	♥ 12:54pm efd: ↳ pwrmnstr @12:52 but I was a tourist! (and I was only passing through Austin en route to Dallas, so no time for a proper visit)
	♥ 12:55pm Figgsrock: EFD, having to miss your breaks because I'm writing obits for the day job (while also doing a meeting) is something i would like to stop doing.
	♥ 12:56pm Figgsrock: Also, I don't think anyone could do a proper tribute show on the fly to Albini just because of his massive reach and impact as an "engineer."
	♥ 12:58pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @12:56 yeah, it isn't like when Scott Miller's death was announced during my show and I just ran into the library and grabbed all the Game Theory and Loud Family releases.
	♥ 12:58pm Bonnie Prince Jamie: Was going to see Shellac in three weeks. Gutting to hear. RIP Steve
	♥ 12:59pm tim: ↳ Song: "cartouche" by "fly ashtray" Were these guys around in the 90s like on Siltbreeze or something similar?
	12:59pm nobeatbeat: RIP
	♥ 1:00pm pwrmnstr: ↳ efd @12:54 if you find yourself back in ATX, I highly recommend End of an Ear. Waterloo was always overpriced. EoaE has a better used selection as well.
	♥ 1:04pm efd: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:00 oh it's definitely on the list! I didn't think we had time to stop in Austin at all, so it was a last minute decision and I was hoping to see an old acquaintance who works at Waterloo (which I did).
	♥ 1:04pm Elena: Canada!
	♥ 1:06pm tim: ↳ Song: "i stole your rock and roll" by "night finger" Digging the Hortons heaviosity here!

	1:14pm Cait Brennan: Ooh I dig that Sad About Girls song! Hi EFD!

	♥ 1:15pm efd: ↳ Cait Brennan @1:14 hi Cait!
	♥ 1:16pm tim: ↳ Song: "the world disappears" by "the insomniacs" I haven't heard Insomniacs in forever. Isn't one of the Rock'n'Soul DJs in the Insomniacs?
	♥ 1:16pm McGroovey: I'm marking July 12 on my calendar.
	♥ 1:17pm efd: ↳ tim @1:16 Mike Sin!
	♥ 1:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "the world disappears" by "the insomniacs" Absolute efdcore.
	♥ 1:17pm efd: ↳ tim @1:16 was, not currently
	♥ 1:18pm efd: ↳ McGroovey @1:16 I suggest getting tickets as soon as you can commit, Mooney Suzuki sold out two nights at Union Pool last year.

	♥ 1:24pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "the world disappears" by "the insomniacs" OK. I just got my Mooney Suzuki/Insomniacs ticket.
	1:25pm P-90: “dont kill your pun with bad spelling” eggzactly

	2:05pm Keith in Vermont: ↳ Song: "dalliance" by "the wedding present" Very Pavement-y

	♥ 2:05pm gauche knee: ↳ The Oscar @2:00 I still hate myself for missing that mighty duo @ that Asbury Park catvention. The realest!
	2:05pm Roc: Killer track from a killer album. Mix sounds different though?

	2:06pm Sunny: need to revisit seamonsters today
	♥ 2:06pm Handy Haversack: ↳ prof.fuzz @2:05 Maybe a skilled engineer could make them blend. I guess it could be a mourning tribute of noise. But ... well, landlords, you know?
	2:08pm Mister Dobalina: Wow, this sounds really good !!!

	12:52pm f0f0 (: Hey Evan Funk Davies! Greetings to all the funky listeners!
	♥ 12:52pm pwrmnstr: No love for End of an Ear? Waterloo is for tourists. :P
	♥ 12:53pm pwrmnstr: I'm just going to go listen to Big Black and cry for the rest of the day.
	♥ 12:54pm efd: ↳ pwrmnstr @12:52 but I was a tourist! (and I was only passing through Austin en route to Dallas, so no time for a proper visit)
	♥ 12:55pm Figgsrock: EFD, having to miss your breaks because I'm writing obits for the day job (while also doing a meeting) is something i would like to stop doing.
	♥ 12:56pm Figgsrock: Also, I don't think anyone could do a proper tribute show on the fly to Albini just because of his massive reach and impact as an "engineer."
	♥ 12:58pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @12:56 yeah, it isn't like when Scott Miller's death was announced during my show and I just ran into the library and grabbed all the Game Theory and Loud Family releases.
	♥ 12:58pm Bonnie Prince Jamie: Was going to see Shellac in three weeks. Gutting to hear. RIP Steve
	♥ 12:59pm tim: ↳ Song: "cartouche" by "fly ashtray" Were these guys around in the 90s like on Siltbreeze or something similar?
	12:59pm nobeatbeat: RIP
	♥ 1:00pm pwrmnstr: ↳ efd @12:54 if you find yourself back in ATX, I highly recommend End of an Ear. Waterloo was always overpriced. EoaE has a better used selection as well.
	♥ 1:04pm efd: ↳ pwrmnstr @1:00 oh it's definitely on the list! I didn't think we had time to stop in Austin at all, so it was a last minute decision and I was hoping to see an old acquaintance who works at Waterloo (which I did).
	♥ 1:04pm Elena: Canada!
	♥ 1:06pm tim: ↳ Song: "i stole your rock and roll" by "night finger" Digging the Hortons heaviosity here!

	1:14pm Cait Brennan: Ooh I dig that Sad About Girls song! Hi EFD!
	♥ 1:15pm Bobby: Albini sounds forever!
	♥ 1:15pm efd: ↳ Cait Brennan @1:14 hi Cait!
	♥ 1:16pm tim: ↳ Song: "the world disappears" by "the insomniacs" I haven't heard Insomniacs in forever. Isn't one of the Rock'n'Soul DJs in the Insomniacs?
	♥ 1:16pm McGroovey: I'm marking July 12 on my calendar.
	♥ 1:17pm efd: ↳ tim @1:16 Mike Sin!
	♥ 1:17pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "the world disappears" by "the insomniacs" Absolute efdcore.
	♥ 1:17pm efd: ↳ tim @1:16 was, not currently
	♥ 1:18pm efd: ↳ McGroovey @1:16 I suggest getting tickets as soon as you can commit, Mooney Suzuki sold out two nights at Union Pool last year.
