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.

Listener comments! | |

McG:
Playing the show really loud to the neighbors can hear. | |
|
♥
Wed. 8/29/12 9:09pm
efd:
Alright, McG! That's the way to do it! |
|
Wed. 8/29/12 9:12pm
SteveL:
Neighbors? You don't need no stinkin' neighbors! | |
|
Wed. 8/29/12 9:13pm
EL:
This is a rowdy opener. I like it! I like it! | |
|

efd:
whoops, slowing it down a little bit now, EL! Thanks for listening! Hi SteveL, thanks to you as well! |
|
Wed. 8/29/12 9:17pm
McG:
I can dig the slow jam. | |
|
Wed. 8/29/12 9:20pm
McG:
That Gap Dream song was excellent. | |
|

Wed. 8/29/12 9:21pm
efd:
They are amazing! That album would be a lock for #1 in any year without a new dB's album. |
|
Wed. 8/29/12 9:27pm
Holly in NC:
Hi Evan & funky friends! Not yet listening, sadly. 10:30ish! Gap Dream lp is great. Note to all: Making one's Google Calendar public to clients before blocking out private time is a rather bad idea. | |

Some Funked up Guy:
Sweet set, thanks! | |
|
Wed. 8/29/12 9:31pm
McG:
Delaware boys, The Spinto Band are opening for The DB's at Maxwells 9/1. I'm a big fan of them myself. They are very tight, fun to watch. | |
|
Wed. 8/29/12 9:35pm
McG:
I like when you talk about baseball. It's something I know little about, so I feel like I am learning something. | |
|
Wed. 8/29/12 9:36pm
john:
Actually, some of us do tune in for your opinions on baseball. And for what it's worth, I think it had to be done. From the Sawx perspective, I approve of getting rid of some of those guys (and Shoppach, who was one of the instigators of the clubhouse toxicity), but James Loney is no, umm, James Loney. | |

Kat in Chicago:
Was the guy in DM3 devastated by DEV UH STAY TUH? | |
|
|
♥
Wed. 8/29/12 9:44pm
efd:
haha Kat, maybe I should do a "devastater/d" theme set sometime. john, I appreciate that! I agree all around with your comments. I'd be surprised if Loney is back with the Sox next year. McG, I'll make a point of catching the Spinto Band on Saturday! |

efd:
Hey Cynthia! I've always loved "Come Up And See Me," of course, but haven't explored much beyond that. I like the LP I played tonight though! Hi Richard, good to see you! Barkevious, the copy said "tatty." I verbally autocorrected it. |

michele:
I've heard this dBs song (that time is gone) a bunch lately - seems like an old friend already. Oh, wow - old school dBs. | |
|
Wed. 8/29/12 10:35pm
Barkevious Shabazz:
My autoincorrect is always in full effect. | |

Good show also. | |

Wed. 8/29/12 11:05pm
Holly in NC:
Aside from everything involving Mittens, his scarily idiotic VP candidate, and the usual GOP excuses for warmongering, Condee's speechwriter actually kicked some ass. I wonder if anyone will notice? And will he/she be fired? | |

Wed. 8/29/12 11:06pm

how 'bout some Posies PowerPop? Solar Sister | |

Wed. 8/29/12 11:32pm
Barkevious Shabazz:
You'd have to hope that Bon Scott whisteled Rip Rigs Knee Deeo in Shit whilst plying his trade. | |

Wed. 8/29/12 11:35pm
Holly in NC:
@Barkevious - :-) And efd, thank you for this RRP | |

Andrew Waterloo:
the Sub Pop Metz is really too. More the loud and noisy variety. | |
