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.

Meanwhile I still can't quite figure how all my good pitchers are playing lousy and all my lousy hitters are playing good :)

I bet even the phone book sounds good over a 12-bar blues progression :)
Wed. 4/22/09 12:50am
From:
Joe
You ain't never heard the "Can't Find My Baby's Number" blues?
Wed. 4/22/09 12:51am
From:
Danne D
hrm too sleepy to answer that joe :)
Okay even this comments section would sound good with the 12-bar blues backing it ;o)

From:
Danne D
You've moved up 7 points, efd. Moving you from 12th all the way up to...uh...12th.
Wed. 4/22/09 1:20am
From:
Danne D
I don't believe it, efd!
Btw, I geeked out and paid the 10 bucks for the stat tracker thingy - hence the up to the minute update.
Wed. 4/22/09 1:23am
From:
efd
thanks, Danne. Yeah, I am *really* behind! It'll take a lot more than 7 points for me to climb out of the cellar.

I just discovered this song over Easter break! We found the 45 at my Grandma's house.

From:

Well I'm sure you'll come around, EFD. Enjoying hearing the source of the league name.
y's are in :) Evan Funk Davyes. :)
Anyway, night sir (for the message board) - the tunes will carry me to sleepyland!

anyone else's sound cut out?
Wed. 4/22/09 1:28am
From:
aharon
Well, if anyone wants to indulge my penchant for ill-advised fantasy trades, have at it. They've gotten me all the way to #9! Otherwise, continue rocking on.

bah... i dunno... all betta

On a diff note, has anyone seen Jeremy Jay live? I am likely going to the Fri show and want to make sure that it's not gonna be a Cat Power or GWAR experience.
Wed. 4/22/09 1:36am
From:
Joe
I haven't seen him live, but I'm willing to bet you won't be wasting your 10 dollars on a singer having a nervous breakdown or soaking you with yogurt shot out of giant inflatable phallus.
Wed. 4/22/09 1:38am
From:
stingy d
catastrophe power.
Wed. 4/22/09 1:41am
From:
aharon
Well, the venue is BYOG(YF)IP, so it's kinda up to me, I guess.
Wed. 4/22/09 1:41am
From:
Joe
THAT was a hell of a segue.
Wed. 4/22/09 1:42am
From:
stingy d
anybody know how much that is? 3,500円(内税) or what that currency is called?
Wed. 4/22/09 1:46am
From:
aharon
If you go into a dept store, yes, but they're much cheaper from the vending machines (which are everywhere).
Wed. 4/22/09 2:00am
From:
Joe
Great song for a last song!
Great show, thanks.
Wed. 4/22/09 2:01am
