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.

efd:

Hey everyone, thanks for tuning in! Cheri, I'm glad I'm on the summer schedule too!

Greetings Richard, SteveL and G! I'm thinking if Danne DOESN'T show up that will be a bad sign.

Danne D:

Hi Funk Fans!
End of 1!

G:

Score?
  9:12pm
PB:

I picked up an import copy of the reissue of My Bloody Valentine's Loveless yesterday. It sounds amazing, infinitely better than the original CD release. Can't wait to check out the double CD EPs release tomorrow.
  9:12pm
glenn:

they're toast. the kings are a better team, playing an all around better game.
  9:13pm
Michael from the Left Coast:

Score=tied at 0 after one period (although Kings open with about a minute and a half of power play in the second period)
  9:14pm
glenn:

this holms song could easily be a tragically hip tune.
  9:15pm
RMH:

SteveL:

Tuff Darts: [ahem] EEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

Perhaps I mentioned once that I heard their song "She's Dead" en-route to my prom, (on Denver radio no less.) My date, when told about it later in the evening, was unamused.

@MK: Don't make Danne even more nervous :-)
  10:33pm

  10:40pm
Ike:

Damn, how could I tune in late and miss a song with a title like "(your love is like) nuclear waste?" That'll teach me. So glad there are archives.

Steve Albini too!
  10:56pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

  11:34pm
Danne D:

night cheri
  11:35pm
Danne D:

By the way, I believe this makes 43 seven-game series that the Devils have ever been in. They have never been swept :)
  11:36pm
Danne D:

longest streak in NHL with a never. The Habs did have a streak of 75 series between sweeps.

Only other teams to never have been swept: Nashville (12) and Tampa Bay (8) (It might be the other way around but those are the two teams)
  11:37pm
Holly in NC:

Good night Marmalade Kitty & Cheri!
Happy for you Danne, as much as a Rangers (& Hurricanes) fan can be ;-)
  11:48pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

Glad to hear they're airing the next games on a popular channel. I'm in a hotel room and the NBC Sports Channel isn't in their line-up. We do get that channel on cable at home.
  11:49pm
miss cheri:

evan let me just say it was a joy hanging out with you tonight,, enjoy your vacay!
