The Evan "Funk" Davies Show:
Playlist
from December 9, 2008
View efd's profile
|
Every show starts with a cut from the ‘70s: Rediscovering the forgotten rockers, revisiting the once-hated disco beats, replaying the power-pop favorites. Next: copious amounts of new releases and occasional live bands. Also: I’m the biggest Nick Gilder fan on WFMU.

December 9, 2008: if I were mad at you, I would have played Peter Criss.

Missed you last week. Although Todd did a great job. I needed this song! | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:11pm
efd:
thanks Sybil, thanks Annabelle! I'm glad to be back (and grateful to Todd for the last-minute fill-in last week). | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:14pm
annabelle clark:
like sybil said you were missed..i guess you didn't feel well last week,,,btw efd what was the worst gift that you ever got,,hmm??? | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:19pm
annabelle c.:
evan have you got any special holiday plans? | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:20pm
efd:
Annabelle, in the words of Rosanne Rosannadanna: you ask a lot of questions! | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:25pm
Sybil:
I am in love with tonight's show. That is all. | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:25pm
annabelle clark:
evan forgive me for being soo nosey,,,i'm sorry efd,, ohhhhhhh yaaaaaahhhhhh tee set | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:32pm
Sybil:
Bullet wound??? | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:39pm
efd:
You'll have to listen to the very beginning of Todd's fill-in from last week. p.s. I'm fine. | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:41pm
C:
he really scared me for a second there. glad all's well! | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:44pm
hazeljane:
the music is GREAT | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:45pm
annabelle c.:
evan i'm really glad that your ok this week,,,& i'm still sorry for being nosey,,, | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:47pm
efd:
thanks Hazeljane, thanks Annabelle. C, I can see how that would have caused some alarm... especially for people who either aren't in NY or don't follow football (or both) | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:50pm
Sybil:
The bullet-football connection is known even to this complete football non-follower. (I try very hard not to know anything about football, but it's more difficult than you might think.) | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:50pm
C:
Haha. No, it was actually the part where he said something like "don't blame Tom for joking about Evan's absence, he didn't know what happened." the guy really sold it. | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:52pm
Sybil:
OK, now I've got to go listen to it. Well, not *now*, but later. Will it only make sense if I also listen to the last few minutes of Tom's show? (I must have missed this - dang!) | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:57pm
Pete:
Even: Listener Pete here. Hope all is well with you. If possible, requesting that you play the song "Brown Eyes" by Gary Charlson off the Numero Titan records comp. Thanks!! | |
|
Tue. 12/9/08 11:59pm
annabelle/catlin:
well evan i'm outa here,,thank you for putting up with me,,,rest easy,,see u next week--g'nite =)=)=) peace & love | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:04am
efd:
goodnight Annabelle! Hello Pete! I am going to have to go in to the comments system and correct your misspelling of my name... but I do have that Titan comp here in the studio, so the odds of your request getting played are good. :) | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:07am
efd:
Sybil, yes, ideally the whole thing works best if you hear the tail end of Tom's show first... C, yes, I see your point - Todd did a good job of sounding pretty grave (for a change!). | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:13am
wendy:
what is the no. again? love the show | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:22am
annabelle c.:
i'm sorry evan,but i was just wonderin would you consider me as one of your fave comenters?? i want to know,,,thank you | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:22am
randy in NC:
efd, while you're at it with Brown Eyes, could I add Big Brown Eyes to the list? Or Amplifier? | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:24am
C:
i don't know if this means anything to you, but you're one of my favorite commenters, annabelle. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:27am
efd:
and I agree with C. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:30am
Laurie:
What did we do wrong? Did we do something to anger you, Evan, and that's why you're playing Ace Frehley? | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:30am
Laurie:
Was it because that one person spelled your name wrong or something? | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:33am
efd:
Laurie, if I were mad at you(se), I would have played Peter Criss. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:44am
MARK:
Do you like Nitecaps' GO TO THE LINE? Wounded Bird Records just reissued it. They also did Polyrock and Bonnie Hayes. Bonnie Hayes is cool, too. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:45am
randy in NC:
efd, when you get a chance sometime, check out Tramp by the band Royal Purple. Joe B. played it today, man what a thing with a hook. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:48am
efd:
Randy, I actually played that a few weeks ago! (Along with the original version by BTO!) HI MARK! That's cool about the Nitecaps reissue, I'll have to keep an eye out. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:50am
randy in NC:
Oh yes I remember that now. It's late... | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:51am
efd:
no worries, Randy... I don't expect everyone to mentally catalog all my shows. :) | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:54am
john:
Damn, that Eagles of Death Metal song was good...even if it was a piss-take...I may need to reappraise. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:54am
Sybil:
Hearing this makes me feel unreasonably nostalgic. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:56am
C:
did they really name this album "theme from growing pains"? is that the most sought after theme that's going to sell the album? | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:57am
efd:
well it certainly isn't the theme from "My Sister Sam." although there is something Murphy Brown-related on there, you'd think that would be the hook. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 12:59am
john:
Evan, play some Sexual Objects if WFMU has it...Merrie England is a great single... | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:00am
Joe:
Hi, Evan, just stopping in because that last track destroyed what's left of my sanity. Greatest American Hero indeed. Good show, carry on. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:02am
?:
awesome | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:06am
john:
RIP Wursthaus | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:06am
C:
that great restaurant is gone, unfortunately | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:12am
efd:
i figured as much... if Out Of Town news can't make it I don't have much hope for anything else in Harvard Square. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:15am
C:
that newstand in the middle of the square? how is that possible? | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:16am
john:
that's closing...they sold in '94 to Hudson...and now Hudson's leaving... | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:18am
efd:
John is correct, unfortunately. I think Nini's Corner is still there, at least? | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:18am
john:
yessir it is | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:19am
C:
yikes. next you're going to tell me that the weirdos have been moved out of the pit by the t stop | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:20am
john:
they will never leave...like cockroaches, they'll be there after the bomb hits | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:23am
randy in NC:
More hook | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:30am
Laurie:
PRIDE OF MIAMI. | |
|
Wed. 12/10/08 1:55am
M Otis Beard:
Oh, this is fantastic. I'm lying in bed in a big rig at a truck stop in Salina, Kansas... and I'm listening to WFMU. | |
|
Tue. 12/16/08 3:59pm
Chris:
Thanks for playing Dogmatics - Gimme the Shakes! I love that song. I've always liked the 7" version better than the lp version. | |
