Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

Listener comments!

  9:02pm
seang:

Man, I saw Rough Cutt open for Dio at the Hollywood Sportatorium
  9:06pm
Sybil:

New comment system seems to trash one out of ten of my comments randomly.

Good evening all, anyhow.
  9:09pm
efd:

Hey, Sybil! Weird about the comments thing, not sure what's happening there.

Hi Sean! I had no idea when I picked up that single who the Paul was - I cracked up when I looked it up later on.
  9:16pm
efd:

Don't worry, it's not really going to return.
  9:19pm
Sybil:

Did he really just include Michael Landon and Mookie Wilson in the same song?
  9:20pm
efd:

hellz yes!
  9:21pm
john:

That alone is worth the price of admission!
  9:27pm
john:

The scary thing about that Ty Seagall track is that the original is now THIRTY years old.

And it's 7-3 Cards, because Wright overran second base just before Beltran parked one. Grrr.
  9:28pm
john:

Becky, ancient denizen of da burgh that she is, says that's exactly where records like that one would go to die.
  9:30pm
Steve in S.F.:

On a brighter note, Giants putting down Marlins 9-7
  9:33pm
deaconlight:

prime time evan!
  9:36pm
john:

2-run dinger by Pagan, 7-5 now!
  9:36pm
cheri:

evan--hiya i'm enjoying your show so far,,,keep on rockin!!!
  9:36pm
efd:

John, I've been coming across a lot of things lately that turn out to be 30 years old, and I don't like it. Not one bit. (Also, I find that easy to believe re Jerry's!)

Hey DD, thanks for stopping by!

Steve, thanks for the Gigantes update! Who is (or was) pitching in that one?
  9:37pm
efd:

double-good news for me, since I've got Pagan on the fantasy team!
  9:39pm
Amanda:

I like this moody, Edward Hopper-esque homepage picture.
  9:40pm
cheri:

hey evan please play more 70s for this disco diva,,,thnx evan
  9:40pm
Steve in S.F.:

Was J. Sanchez pitching, but started giving up homers, so a series of relievers of let them tie it 9-9 in the top of the 9th. Sheesh.
  9:41pm
john:

My 30th HS reunion was last weekend. I was thrilled. I didn't go, but damn those Facebook pictures are of old people.

And I've got Sanchez on my team, dammit.
  9:41pm
efd:

"Year Of The Pitcher," Steve!

Thanks Amanda, I like it too! I don't even remember anyone taking it!
  9:43pm
seang:

I always liked Alex Cora--dude has swagger
  9:44pm
Joe:

You don't look like you remember anyone taking it.
  9:44pm
efd:

Cheri, I've got a couple of '70s surprises that I may bust out later!
  9:45pm
Sybil:

what picture is Amanda liking?
  9:46pm
efd:

The one at the top of the WFMU homepage.
  9:46pm
Sybil:

Alex Cora...
  9:46pm
Steve in S.F.:

Except best reliever in N.L. just gave up runs on an ugly Uggla double. Now to the bottom of the 9th...
  9:47pm
efd:

Steve, it's because they messed with his orange shoes!
  9:48pm
john:

At least Uggla's my second baseman!
  9:50pm
Steve in S.F.:

Poor B-Weez...he does get style points. On to the 10th
  9:54pm
deaconlight:

Lucky hand? you should see that Bobby Sherman video I posted on FB!
  9:55pm
matt:

hey, could someone please tell me the name of the guess who remix in the background? - thanks.
  9:55pm
randy in NC:

Hey efd, DD!
  9:55pm
Amanda:

Hahahahahaha
  9:56pm
deaconlight:

Randy! Hey!
  9:57pm
john:

Mets tie it on a 2-run Ike Davis single!
  9:57pm
deaconlight:

Funny Randy and I reunite here in Evan's chat room.
  9:58pm
Amanda:

Gilgongo! is a Kurt Vonnegut reference, if I'm not much mistaken. Nice.
  9:58pm
efd:

dammit, where's Joe Duffy when we need him?!

(matt, that's kind of an in-joke at your expense; I'll give you the info shortly, if no one else does)
  9:59pm
Amanda:

He's here, isn't he? Matt, I definitely did not intend to laugh at you! :-)
  10:01pm
matt:

over my head, evan. - just wanted to know the name of a song. thanks.
  10:02pm
Joe:

It is a loop. A loop from a song. The song is called "Saturday Night Fever" by the Lordz of Brooklyn. You might recognize the sample as a snippet from the main guitar line of "American Woman" by the Guess Who.

Here is a link.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEDeXD7oZYk

SHA-ZAM
  10:04pm
Sybil:

The joke is that Joe is the "designated explainer of the loop".
  10:06pm
matt:

... im sure its a frequently asked qustion for new listeners. - thank you for your indulgence. - and thanks for the link, joe.
  10:07pm
Danne D:

Hi EFD Fans :)
Hope you're enjoying Funk Day on Hump Day :)
  10:08pm
efd:

thanks all, and Matt no disrespect or ill will intended - I appreciate your interest, and thanks for listening! I was just a little overwhelmed at the time and was hoping Joe would perform his assigned duty. :)
  10:10pm
seang:

Ike, Ike, Baby
  10:10pm
Joe:

it's a joke only in the loosest sense of the term.
  10:11pm
Sybil:

Joe is no joke as designated explainer!
  10:12pm
Amanda:

Bonus for being the first to recognize it was a Guess Who sample, I think, too
  10:12pm
WF:

Tried to wiki Chin Chin... some great explanations... not the ones I was looking for though!
  10:12pm
Danne D:

Love that Mets tying things up, wiped out my opponent's pitcher's win :)

Hi Amanda! :D
  10:13pm
Danne D:

Though Aharon and his cast of thousands is starting to run away with the league :(
  10:13pm
matt:

no offense taken. thanks all.
  10:14pm
Danne D:

That's one of my favorite photos efd :) though I think the photo I have of you and frangry is better :)
  10:16pm
jeremy the listener:

mets 7 cardinals 7 : bottom of ninth
  10:17pm
WF:

much better than the Japanese slang explanation :) Thanks!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chin_chin_(disambiguation)
  10:18pm
Danne D:

Of course, now I've switched to rooting for a Matt Holliday grand slam - such is the corruptive power of fantasy baseball.
  10:26pm
Sybil:

I do like this song, and it is hot, and night.
  10:27pm
blacktooth:

Jesus! is it wrong for this "hot summer night" song giving me the urge to hump olivia newton john in the back of a t-top camaro? is that wrong? is it.....
  10:28pm
Danne D:

You should offer the sponsorship of the formerly midnight ticket oasis as a big bucks prize at the next marathon :)

  10:28pm
Sybil:

OK, blacktooth, maybe I don't like it *that much*...
  10:29pm
blacktooth:

well, me neither. but, jeez. my skins crawinling ovah - heee-yah.
  10:29pm
Danne D:

lol sybil :)
blacktooth's gotta different idea of a long hot night I guess
  10:32pm
Amanda:

The Candle in the Wind aspect of that People Like Us track made me feel special
  10:32pm
Amanda:

Belated hi, Danne D!
  10:33pm
Danne D:

:)
  10:33pm
Joe:

DJ Babuuuuuu SO GREAT. EFD you've given him more than a few spins I see, you should check out his group, Dilated Peoples. It's great early 2000s west coast rap with very few curses.
  10:34pm
Danne D:

You are special, Amanda :)

Btw, yet another killer show, Evan!
  10:34pm
Joe:

also digging the Invincible Super Blog shout-out. HIstory's Greatest Villian indeed.
  10:35pm
efd:

oh! Thanks Joe, I'll do that - was not aware of them.

Danne, I actually did offer naming rights to the MTO during this year's thon, but there were no takers. (It was a big ticket item, admittedly.)
  10:36pm
Danne D:

That's right Evan - I am going senile I think :(
No wonder I thought it was such a great idea! :)
  10:38pm
Danne D:

Btw, I'm still working through my FMU swag :) I have a commute with Radio Heart written on it coming up :) (only good part of my hideous commute is that I can usually listen to premium CDs straight through)
  10:40pm
jeremy the listener:

mets 7 cardinals 7 : bottom of 10
  10:41pm
jeremy the listener:

sorry bottom of 11?
  10:41pm
Danne D:

Evan's next follower will be #777 btw
  10:42pm
john:

They didn't. Going to top 11 now.
  10:43pm
Joe:

If moral victories counted, the Yankees would never win another World Series.
  10:44pm
Danne D:

Hmm, you bring up an interesting thought, Joe, they have moral victories but who's ever heard of a moral defeat?
  10:44pm
john:

Joe FTW!
  10:44pm
Sybil:

Padres pitcher just got warned about pitching too close, and it's the 3rd inning.
  10:45pm
Sybil:

Just lost another comment.

Padres putcher just got a warning about pitching too close. Hit two batters so far, and it's the 3rd inning.
  10:46pm
Sybil:

Oops, lost and found.
  10:46pm
Joe:

I'm a 3rd generation Yanks fan, keep in mind.
  10:49pm
Joe:

EFD you totally picked one of the best tracks from the whole Single Bullet Theory FMA dump. Which was a real eye-opener for me - mad props to Jason for that.
  10:50pm
Joe:

PS dump as in data dump, not dump as in garbage.
  10:51pm
john:

I may or may not have mentioned seeing Single Bullet Theory open for The Stranglers in about 1981. Way better on record, I feel obliged to point out.
  10:55pm
efd:

Anything involving the Stranglers is always worth mentioning again.
  10:57pm
john:

First band I ever saw more than once, The Stranglers, oddly enough. And we head to the 12th at Chiti Field.
  10:58pm
cheri:

well efd i'm outa here,,,ty for keepin me company tointe,,,have a great nite
  10:59pm
john:

Jerry Manuel appears to be holding off Ollie Perez in case the game goes 30.
  11:01pm
Spoony:

It doesn't matter how Ken is trying to portray you, YOU ARE NO SLOUCH. Exhibit A: tonight's show.
  11:01pm
Danne D:

lol - Ollie Perez = Secret Weapon
  11:01pm
efd:

goodnight Cheri, thanks for listening!

John, not a bad strategy!

Spoony: Touche!
  11:02pm
Sybil:

How is Ken trying to portray you? What's going on around there?
  11:02pm
Danne D:

I think it represents how easy Evan makes great radio seem - even though it's quite the opposite :)

I'm off too (though I'll be listening)
Night Funk Friends and Baseball Fans :D
  11:03pm
Danne D:

sybil - go to www.wfmu.org for the picture of EFD in question

now for reals g'night :)
  11:03pm
Sybil:

G'night Danne!
  11:05pm
Sybil:

There is indeed something Hopperish about that photo.
  11:06pm
Danne D:

I changed my mind :) Though I'll be a little more laid back in the comments.

Gotta hear the Mid-Show Ticket Oasis
  11:08pm
john:

And we go to the bottom of the 12th. Which will end first, the show or the game?
  11:09pm
Danne D:

Bell House is a neat venue - saw Elk City there
  11:14pm
Danne D:

Welcome Back Bobby Jenks!
Strikes out all 3 batters he faces to get the save :D
  11:14pm
Sybil:

I just got to hear Vin Scully say the word "schmucks". This is what I've always lived for.
  11:16pm
Danne D:

wow - need a sound clip of that one Sybil :)

are you a Padres fan?
  11:19pm
efd:

Sybil, I'm assuming it was for promotional purposes?
  11:26pm
Sybil:

Sorry, for some reason watching mlb.tv and listening to the wfmu live stream while commenting and working a spreadsheet simultaneously, creashed my computer. I can't imagine why.

Yes, efd, it was promotional.

And no, not a Padres fan, Danne. I just started watching the Dodgers after That Fateful Day When...
  11:27pm
efd:

3 years ago this week, wasn't it?
  11:28pm
Sybil:

Just figure out how some comments get eaten. For some reason, just as I'm about to push the "post" button after doing the "math" (heh), the page will jump about 1/2 inch upward,, so I hit "cancel" instead (I'm guessing)

Weird.
  11:30pm
john:

Pujols raps a single between short and 3rd, 8-7 Cards in the 13th.
  11:31pm
Sybil:

Actually, 2 years ago on the 31st. It just seems like 3...
  11:33pm
Sybil:

That Rafael Furcal can play some ball.
  11:34pm
efd:

ah! I was thinking it was either 2 or 3, and went with 3 since I always seem to underestimate how long ago something happened these days...

I'm hoping the Mets can pull this out, but STL should be ashamed of themselves for letting it get to this point at all.
  11:35pm
Danne D:

In the EFD league this year that fateful day was July 17 :)
  11:35pm
Danne D:

July 17th is officially a holliday for New Jersey Knuckles fans :)
  11:36pm
Sybil:

OK, I'll ask: what happened on July 17th?
  11:37pm
john:

It was almost a whole lot worse, but Josh Thole made a nice play retrieving a wild pitch and throwing it to the pitcher to tag out the runner trying to score from 3rd. Now comes the tough part--Mets have to score against Ryan Franklin, who's one of my closers!
  11:37pm
Danne D:

Sybil:

How on earth did I miss that, Danne? ;)
  11:42pm
Danne D:

:D
  11:43pm
john:

Guess this isn't a tribute to the great Rumour album of the same name.

Game ends before show does, 8-7 Cards.
  11:45pm
Joe:

I seriously considered becoming a Mets fan at the beginning of this season. Glad I didn't - I have enough stress in my life as it is.
  11:47pm
lobsta:

yeah.
  11:56pm
Sybil:

This huang chung I like better than the other stuff I've heard of theirs. Never heard it before.

Goodnight all!
  11:57pm
Joe:

vuuuurrry good shew
  12:00am
finbar:

Wow! Hoodoo Gurus, damn I think I missed it. The band from down under eh?
  12:00am
Martin:

Great show. Loved the Huang Chung. Reminds me a bit of BPeople. Must be the sax.
  7:04pm
will:

So it turns out Huang Chung were a better band than Duran Duran but still we fight!
