	9:35pm Holly in NC: Hi Evan & friends! Great opening set. I believe are all of us are special guests ;-) FYI, my friend Gary recently interviewed Adam WarRock http://bit.ly/Qulzqu Off to drive a dog to our neighborhood park, to walk & poop (dog only pooping, I hasten to add), back asap. Dog won't poop in her own huge, fenced-in, dog-friendly yard, & likes car rides. Is what it is.
	9:36pm Danne D: Hi Funk Fans :) Hi Holly :) Hi EFD :)
	9:36pm Danne D: So cal zone! are you someone different than the poster know as calzone! ?
	9:38pm Matt from Springfield: Hi Evan and everyone! Shaping up to be another great show!
	9:39pm Dave B: @cal zone! http://tinyurl.com/PoTA-Virgil
	9:41pm cal zone!: I am one in the same Calzone! Cal Zone! Dig the planet of the Paul Williams Ape!
	9:43pm Marmalade Kitty: that's a cool dog there Holly! :)
	9:44pm Danne D: The name Cal Zone! makes me slightly less hungry
	9:45pm Matt from Springfield: @MK: Always goes out despite her nice yard, sounds like a yuppie dog to me! ;)
	9:46pm Matt from Springfield: DELORIS TELESCOPE!! I was going to mention Kacy "DJ Clay Pigeon" Ross is the frontman, but Evan has already pointed that out! Thank you!
	9:46pm Marmalade Kitty: Cats and Dogs are big time OCD freaks
	9:47pm Dave B: This puts the "B" in "Dave B"! - http://tinyurl.com/PW-Brady-PUNCH
	9:48pm Matt from Springfield: True, if cats and dogs remember something a certain way, they always insist on it being that way!
	9:49pm amEdeo: Woah. Surprising revelation. Pretty fabulous though. Clay is great.
	9:51pm steve: i look away for a few minutes and miss a band featuring clay pigeon!? gah
	9:52pm Danne D: Damn I heard it but didn't read about it being Clay :)
	9:52pm Matt from Springfield: "Gah" is right! Fortunately "Archives" are also right! :)
	9:52pm Danne D: EFD has to play another Deloris Telescope track for us laggards and clueless ;o) (not really - it's his show after all) :)
	9:52pm steve: wow, the Deloris Telescope wikipedia page is surprisingly thorough
	9:53pm Danne D: 8( I'm out of town when the dBs are at Maxwells :(
	9:54pm efd: That happened to me when the dB's played Le Poisson Rouge, but I will be IN TOWN for the Maxwell's show!
	9:55pm efd: oh, that was my first comment all night! Hi everyone! Thanks for listening and commenting, it's always appreciated! (Listening and not commenting is also appreciate you, I just don't know you're there to appreciate.)
	9:55pm Kenzo (lastever.org): Evan, I've a radio show at 1am (elsewhere), and I'm fortunate that yours ends at midnight that I might repurpose a song or two from yours.
	9:56pm efd: excellent, Kenzo, please do! And feel free to share the location of your 1am show. Don't worry, Mary Wing will never see it. :)
	9:57pm EL: I can't keep up with Mr. Pollard anymore. My wallet is broken. He's still an inspiring fellow.
	9:59pm Danne D: Hope that Kenzo directs us to this radio show at some point such as he sees fit :) (and hopefully to archives of same)
	10:02pm Ken's Last Ever... ('zo): Hi! I take happy popular music the likes of which beings like yourself might feature, and transform them in a live sound collage the likes of which a being like myself can make more sense of the oddly linear-seeming world. Currently bi-weekly on WTJU, info here: http://lastever.org with archives forever.
	10:02pm Danne D: http://www.deloristelescope.com/images/8.jpg
	10:05pm john: Whoa. Someone cleaned up at the Scritti Politti garage sale.
	10:08pm Danne D: Great thanks Kenzo :) will have to check it out and hope others do the same
	10:09pm EL: This is my new struttin' song. It sounds like a Bukaroo Bonzai song.
	10:10pm steve: is the melody from this song taken from something else?
	10:11pm steve: i know it is. this is gonna drive me nuts!
	10:11pm Matt from Springfield: Ruckus Roboticus! So over the top, so great!
	10:12pm efd: Steve, yes, I was just writing a comment about that. That Boney M song is hilarious to me because it totally swipes the melody of "I Can't Stand The Rain" without giving any credit, and it's called "Sample City."
	10:14pm steve: yes! thank you evan. that would have driven me crazy for probably at least all of tomorrow...
	10:15pm Joe D.: wonder what Missy Elliot thinks of all that
	10:17pm efd: HAPPY ONE DAY AFTER YOUR BIRTHDAY JOE D.!
	10:17pm Ken's Last Ever... ('zo): (Thanks, EL, for reminding me to use Buckaroo Bonzai theme!)
	10:18pm Holly in NC: My lord I love this Ruckus Roboticus song! So glad Scooter was more than happy to rush home for chicken/yam treat & the Olympics! ;-) @MKitty & Matt - Scooter is a wee bit ocd, but also sweet as heck & missing her full-time humans immensely. Good dog. Ooh, like Dark Day, too!
	10:21pm Destroit: hello everyone, happy to be here.
	10:21pm Danne D: s'up Destroit. So this is a little off topic - you ever go to that pawn shop?
	10:21pm Matt from Springfield: Hello Destroit, hello again Holly!
	10:21pm john: Chicken and yams cast a nearly hypnotic influence over a little dog round these parts as well. Sometimes he'll lie in front of his bowl between meals just in case some materializes.
	10:22pm EL: Good on ya, Kenzo. Rock it.
	10:24pm Matt from Springfield: Extended Version--because we can HANDLE the truth!!
	10:24pm Barkevious Shabazz: Let's hear it for Lust/Unlust swingin' oldsters!
	10:25pm Destroit: Haha, no Danne, never been.
	10:27pm Holly in NC: Hey Barkevious. so cool you have original lp too! Hey Destroit! Danne ! John & hypnotized little dog! Matt x2!
	10:27pm Danne D: Was curious :) figured maybe we could look for you on an episode ;o)
	10:28pm Barkevious Shabazz: Let's hear it for American Jewelry and Pawn.
	10:28pm Michele Diamond: yay LA!
	10:28pm Danne D: EFD - Mark Firdrych's birthday is coming up (8/14) - hope you play "1976" then :) (Destroit's presence reminded me of this). Just a thought :)
	10:29pm Danne D: S'up Barkevious :)
	10:32pm Barkevious Shabazz: Diggin on Cuffs!
	10:34pm efd: hey Barkevious, Danne, Destroit, Michele, Matt, john, Holly, cal zone, M. Kitty, and everyone else who I don't have time to scroll up and see right now! Danne, I'll take that under advisement! :)
	10:34pm Destroit: the Bird - Freedom of '76 would be a good fit
	10:40pm Holly in NC: Evan, this is a particularly sweet show. You're in your zone.
	10:43pm Holly in NC: Would your zone possibly include Jim Carroll? His birthday today.
	10:43pm Danne D: Now if EFD played a song about Ripken, he'd be in the Cal Zone! ;o)
	10:45pm SteveL: That's not OCD, you've got rhythm!
	10:45pm Holly in NC: Oh, Danne. Wow. Just wow.
	10:45pm Danne D: At some point EFD should discuss how John and Aharon are just schooling everyone in the Happy How Do You Do To You Fantasy Baseball League :)
	10:47pm Danne D: Hova had an awesome show :)
	10:49pm Ajax: Woo Spencey Dude! LOVE IT!!!
	10:49pm Paulie B: Kerbivore are indeed from Staten Island. Here's their bandcamp if you didn't catch Evan saying it: http://kerbivore.bandcamp.com/
	10:50pm efd: Hey Ajax! Those guys are your buds, right? Danne, I think that discussion would appeal to a very, very limited audience.
	10:50pm Holly in NC: @Ajax - Agreed, I love when a song makes me laugh out loud!
	10:54pm Danne D: @EFD yep - but they should get props mid-season :)
	10:57pm Michele: how about Richard Lloyd Misty Eyes! Taking requests Evan?
	10:58pm Holly in NC: Sometimes I think I prefer Adventure to Marquee Moon. Not always, but sometimes.
	10:58pm efd: ooh, that is a longtime fave Michele! Probably not this week, but I'll make a note for next week!
	10:59pm cal zone!: Danne D, thanks for all the shout outs tonight! Treat yourself to a late night snack!
	11:00pm PB: I actually liked the 1992 "reunion" Television album the best (at least the first 5 tracks).
	11:00pm SteveL: Nice segue. What a cool cover.
	11:01pm Michele: cool thanks Evan! I missed your first 1/2 hour - you played some of my faves too.
	11:05pm Holly in NC: Been playing the heck out of this Dog Eat Dog lp, new to me & really like.
	11:05pm Matt from Springfield: I'm liking Dog Eat Dog as well!
	11:06pm Matt from Springfield: Liquid Liquid!
	11:18pm Danne D: LOL Cal zone - I think a calzone at this hour would be a bit heavy (and I need to lose weight anyhow) :( but thanks :)
	11:22pm john: Got the Dog Eat Dog on heavy rotation around here too; Sonic Turf's my fave track too!
	11:25pm Mike Trout: Yeah, the bunnymen my favorite!
	11:26pm efd: Yeah, that Dog Eat Dog album is great! I hadn't heard of them until Gaylord played them during the marathon this year.
	11:28pm the glowing one: I always mix up the bunnymen and the jesus and mary chain... :(
	11:30pm Playlist Cop: Wicked Lady - Out of the Dark was the track you played . Pull you head out of your arse! We should kick your ass for that!
	11:30pm Barkevious Shabazz: Nah pooh=The Art of Bluff
	11:32pm john: Speaking of records in heavy rotation, this (Mighty) Wah album (A Word To The Wise Guy) in 1984. Played it to dust, I vaguely recall...
	11:33pm the glowing one: torches were in high demand in the 80s...
	11:35pm Holly in NC: @the glowing one - dear heavens! eb - hooky, mopey, atmospheric, liverpool jmc - hooky, feedback, psychotic, glasgow for starters ;-)
	11:35pm efd: whoops - good catch, thank you Playlist Cop! Although I don't know if you need to be all aggro about it.
	11:36pm efd: what up, Mike Trout! Did you hit me any home runs today?
	11:38pm john: Hasn't hit ME any. Thank goodness I have Ruben Tejada to supply the power!
	11:38pm efd: I had the good fortune to pick him up off the waiver wire back in early May in the other league I'm in.
	11:39pm the glowing one: @Holly: I know, they are not a like. still I mix the names up, which is the weird part, because I can tell them apart.
	11:42pm the glowing one: it's like one of those things that you have once learned wrong, and can't get rid off. sometimes I wish there was just one band... Jesus & the Bunnymen.
	11:42pm john: I keep expecting him to come back to earth, but then again I have Bryce Harper in my other league, so I would.
	11:46pm Jaz Coleman: YOU try opening for Hussy and Ian Asshat.
	11:48pm Holly in NC: @Jaz - Iceland again?
	11:51pm Holly in NC: @the glowing one - that's funny! :-)
	11:57pm Danne D: Thanks for a great show EFD :) Have a good night Funk Fans :)
	11:57pm Matt from Springfield: Mmm, washed out electro pop, Virginia plainly likes Virginia Plain!
	11:58pm efd: Thanks very much for tuning in, everyone! See you next week!
	11:58pm efd: and stay tuned for Mary, of course!
	11:58pm Matt from Springfield: Awesome show achieved, Evan! Goodnight Fellow Funk Fans! :)
	3:20pm Mike East: Hey Evan! Catching you on archive again. Excellent show. I love that you played a cut off Mike Shelley's premium. I got it last Friday, and have been playing it on repeat. Gonna try and catch dB's on Saturday...I could use some R&R after the week I've had. Cheers. ME

Manager is a three-piece band that’s based right here in Jersey City.

It’s the 18th year of the Evan “Funk” Davies Show Holiday Music Funktacular, and this year — for the first time ever — it will air on actual Christmas Day!

	10:18pm Holly in NC: My lord I love this Ruckus Roboticus song! So glad Scooter was more than happy to rush home for chicken/yam treat & the Olympics! ;-) @MKitty & Matt - Scooter is a wee bit ocd, but also sweet as heck & missing her full-time humans immensely. Good dog. Ooh, like Dark Day, too!
	10:21pm Destroit: hello everyone, happy to be here.
	10:21pm Danne D: s'up Destroit. So this is a little off topic - you ever go to that pawn shop?
	10:21pm Matt from Springfield: Hello Destroit, hello again Holly!
	10:21pm john: Chicken and yams cast a nearly hypnotic influence over a little dog round these parts as well. Sometimes he'll lie in front of his bowl between meals just in case some materializes.
	10:22pm EL: Good on ya, Kenzo. Rock it.
	10:24pm Matt from Springfield: Extended Version--because we can HANDLE the truth!!
	10:24pm Barkevious Shabazz: Let's hear it for Lust/Unlust swingin' oldsters!
	10:25pm Destroit: Haha, no Danne, never been.
	10:27pm Holly in NC: Hey Barkevious. so cool you have original lp too! Hey Destroit! Danne ! John & hypnotized little dog! Matt x2!
	10:27pm Danne D: Was curious :) figured maybe we could look for you on an episode ;o)
	10:28pm Barkevious Shabazz: Let's hear it for American Jewelry and Pawn.
	10:28pm Michele Diamond: yay LA!
	10:28pm Danne D: EFD - Mark Firdrych's birthday is coming up (8/14) - hope you play "1976" then :) (Destroit's presence reminded me of this). Just a thought :)
	10:29pm Danne D: S'up Barkevious :)
	10:32pm Barkevious Shabazz: Diggin on Cuffs!
	10:34pm efd: hey Barkevious, Danne, Destroit, Michele, Matt, john, Holly, cal zone, M. Kitty, and everyone else who I don't have time to scroll up and see right now! Danne, I'll take that under advisement! :)
	10:34pm Destroit: the Bird - Freedom of '76 would be a good fit
	10:40pm Holly in NC: Evan, this is a particularly sweet show. You're in your zone.
	10:43pm Holly in NC: Would your zone possibly include Jim Carroll? His birthday today.
	10:43pm Danne D: Now if EFD played a song about Ripken, he'd be in the Cal Zone! ;o)
	10:45pm SteveL: That's not OCD, you've got rhythm!
	10:45pm Holly in NC: Oh, Danne. Wow. Just wow.
	10:45pm Danne D: At some point EFD should discuss how John and Aharon are just schooling everyone in the Happy How Do You Do To You Fantasy Baseball League :)
	10:47pm Danne D: Hova had an awesome show :)
	10:49pm Ajax: Woo Spencey Dude! LOVE IT!!!
	10:49pm Paulie B: Kerbivore are indeed from Staten Island. Here's their bandcamp if you didn't catch Evan saying it: http://kerbivore.bandcamp.com/
	10:50pm efd: Hey Ajax! Those guys are your buds, right? Danne, I think that discussion would appeal to a very, very limited audience.
	10:50pm Holly in NC: @Ajax - Agreed, I love when a song makes me laugh out loud!
	10:54pm Danne D: @EFD yep - but they should get props mid-season :)
	10:57pm Michele: how about Richard Lloyd Misty Eyes! Taking requests Evan?
	10:58pm Holly in NC: Sometimes I think I prefer Adventure to Marquee Moon. Not always, but sometimes.
	10:58pm efd: ooh, that is a longtime fave Michele! Probably not this week, but I'll make a note for next week!
	10:59pm cal zone!: Danne D, thanks for all the shout outs tonight! Treat yourself to a late night snack!
	11:00pm PB: I actually liked the 1992 "reunion" Television album the best (at least the first 5 tracks).
	11:00pm SteveL: Nice segue. What a cool cover.
	11:01pm Michele: cool thanks Evan! I missed your first 1/2 hour - you played some of my faves too.
	11:05pm Holly in NC: Been playing the heck out of this Dog Eat Dog lp, new to me & really like.
	11:05pm Matt from Springfield: I'm liking Dog Eat Dog as well!
	11:06pm Matt from Springfield: Liquid Liquid!
	11:18pm Danne D: LOL Cal zone - I think a calzone at this hour would be a bit heavy (and I need to lose weight anyhow) :( but thanks :)
	11:22pm john: Got the Dog Eat Dog on heavy rotation around here too; Sonic Turf's my fave track too!
	11:25pm Mike Trout: Yeah, the bunnymen my favorite!
	11:26pm efd: Yeah, that Dog Eat Dog album is great! I hadn't heard of them until Gaylord played them during the marathon this year.
	11:28pm the glowing one: I always mix up the bunnymen and the jesus and mary chain... :(
	11:30pm Playlist Cop: Wicked Lady - Out of the Dark was the track you played . Pull you head out of your arse! We should kick your ass for that!
	11:30pm Barkevious Shabazz: Nah pooh=The Art of Bluff
	11:32pm john: Speaking of records in heavy rotation, this (Mighty) Wah album (A Word To The Wise Guy) in 1984. Played it to dust, I vaguely recall...
	11:33pm the glowing one: torches were in high demand in the 80s...
	11:35pm Holly in NC: @the glowing one - dear heavens! eb - hooky, mopey, atmospheric, liverpool jmc - hooky, feedback, psychotic, glasgow for starters ;-)
	11:35pm efd: whoops - good catch, thank you Playlist Cop! Although I don't know if you need to be all aggro about it.
	11:36pm efd: what up, Mike Trout! Did you hit me any home runs today?
	11:38pm john: Hasn't hit ME any. Thank goodness I have Ruben Tejada to supply the power!
	11:38pm efd: I had the good fortune to pick him up off the waiver wire back in early May in the other league I'm in.
	11:39pm the glowing one: @Holly: I know, they are not a like. still I mix the names up, which is the weird part, because I can tell them apart.
	11:42pm the glowing one: it's like one of those things that you have once learned wrong, and can't get rid off. sometimes I wish there was just one band... Jesus & the Bunnymen.
	11:42pm john: I keep expecting him to come back to earth, but then again I have Bryce Harper in my other league, so I would.
	11:46pm Jaz Coleman: YOU try opening for Hussy and Ian Asshat.
	11:48pm Holly in NC: @Jaz - Iceland again?
	11:51pm Holly in NC: @the glowing one - that's funny! :-)
	11:57pm Danne D: Thanks for a great show EFD :) Have a good night Funk Fans :)
	11:57pm Matt from Springfield: Mmm, washed out electro pop, Virginia plainly likes Virginia Plain!
	11:58pm efd: Thanks very much for tuning in, everyone! See you next week!
	11:58pm efd: and stay tuned for Mary, of course!
	11:58pm Matt from Springfield: Awesome show achieved, Evan! Goodnight Fellow Funk Fans! :)
	3:20pm Mike East: Hey Evan! Catching you on archive again. Excellent show. I love that you played a cut off Mike Shelley's premium. I got it last Friday, and have been playing it on repeat. Gonna try and catch dB's on Saturday...I could use some R&R after the week I've had. Cheers. ME
