Starting with the 70s -- it could be a classic (or obscure) punk rocker, a forgotten disco diva, a long-unheard hit record, or none of these. What happens next depends on what's in the WFMU new bin and whether I remember my records from home. Tune in and find out! You'll even hear a live band once in a while.

Hello, and welcome to "Doing your Taxes at the Last Possible Moment" with Evan "Fonk" Davies! Please recheck all your math before submission, and remember, it -is- perfectly acceptable to list Evan as a dependent! Because without your love, he dies.

I do think that Jonathan Kane track was suitable for tax-doing.

Not even The Power Station cover of Taxman? Tony Thompson! Godzilla of Drums!
There's got to be a good mashup of Taxman with something...

Mila Kunis is a fine young actress, but more importantly, a slammin', slammin' hottie.
What is "Evan's in the News"?
I'm new.
Mon. 4/14/08 11:38pm
From:
E.L.
EFD,
Can you someday build a show full of over-the-top songs and do the whole show in intense echo voice?
'twould be fun.
Mon. 4/14/08 11:43pm
From:
efd
Toni, now that you've finally hooked up with LuAnn's brother Brad I'm not sure if I want to start discussing actresses with you.
Mon. 4/14/08 11:43pm
From:
Amanda
Joe, if I remember right it deals with "Evans" (people named Evan) who have done noteworthy things, although "Evan's in the News" would be kind of fun too.
My taxes are in! TurboTax made it easier than ever this year. PLUG.
Mon. 4/14/08 11:46pm
From:
efd
Joe B. - thanks for the suggestion, if I'd thought for more than 45 minutes about the fact that my show was on Tax Day eve I might have put something together! I'll leave the Black Oak Arkansas for you to play tomorrow.
other Joe, Amanda summed it up pretty well.
I use Tax Cut myself.
E.L., that sounds like it would take a lot of preparation!

I l-u-v Ladytron.
Tue. 4/15/08 12:16am
From:
Laurie
I'm trying to decide if I want to see Ladytron when they roll up to Miami. They're playing Studio A, where a kid was shot to death on Sunday. The newspapers tell me a "hip hop event" was going on.
Does this mean I can only go to Studio A when indie nerd bands are playing?
Also, does the sister club, Studio B in Brooklyn, host such shenanigans? And by shenanigans, I mean senseless acts of violence.
Tue. 4/15/08 12:22am
From:
Joe
I saw Chromeo at Studio B over the summer, the crowd was quite rowdy and "urban" and there were no shenanigans to speak of. However there was quite a bit of ecstasy to speak of, and I find that the ecstasy crowd and the gun-toting crowd tend to be mutually exclusive, with the exact point of overlap being Ja Rule, himself.
Tue. 4/15/08 12:23am
From:
E.L.
Laurie,
If someone gets shot at that Ladytron concert I'll buy you a Mark Ryden painting. But seriously, go see them so you can tell me about it second hand. I'll be "wicked" jealous as we say in Providence.

Anyone know if Subway is giving away free cookies on tax day? I WANT.
Tue. 4/15/08 12:29am
From:
E.L.
Are Subway cookies good?! (He said incredulously)
Tue. 4/15/08 12:30am
From:
Laurie
Yes, they are. And I'm a food snob.
Tue. 4/15/08 12:31am
From:
Amanda
Free cookies? They DO that? Yes, Subway does have pretty good cookies.
Tue. 4/15/08 12:31am
From:
E.L.
In that case, thanks for the tip.
Tue. 4/15/08 12:36am
From:
Droll
Oh sure, the first one's free, and then when you get a jones for another they want like $2.39. Next thing you know you need a refreshing beverage to wash it down, and they're all too happy to help...

There is nothing like arriving home from the movies to Nice Face on the EFD show!
I really need to grab one of those special slabs of vinyl.
Tue. 4/15/08 12:40am
From:
efd
now if they start giving away Auntie Anne's pretzels I'll get excited.
Or Cinna-bons!
Jessica, as if Nice Face weren't enough just wait til you hear what's coming up in the next mic break.
Tue. 4/15/08 12:41am

Auntie Anne's cinnamon sugar pretzels... Oh, I love those things.

Oh man, I once attended a Sabado Gigante taping. It was madness. They tape in Hialeah, which is about a half hour drive from where I reside

I'm gunning for a Spanish-language EFD show, but only if it's all in the echo voice.
FYI, a friend just notified me via Gchat that he will be listening to this program regularly now, all because of APB. So, congrats?
Tue. 4/15/08 1:16am
From:
efd
ha! I like that idea, Amanda!
Tell your APB-loving friend that he should check out the live set they played on my show back in December of 2006.
Tue. 4/15/08 1:22am
From:
joem
Ah, so this is the EFD remix, eh? (much cooler than saying it skipped...)
Tue. 4/15/08 1:23am
From:
efd
i think that was the Skippy McSkipperson remix actually...
Tue. 4/15/08 1:26am
From:
Joe
For it to be the Remix you have to scream REEEEE-MIXXXX and play the racecar noise, then start the song over. Like four times in a row.
Hmm, the night suddenly got much hotter...
Tue. 4/15/08 1:31am
From:
Amanda
Joe M! I bring you into the fold and you immediately zing the DJ? I'm so ashamed.
Regular Joe -- I agree 100% with your Remix rules culled from commercials for Sprite Remix.

Joe M, please ignore the comment above suggesting that Amanda's friend check out the live APB set. ;)
