One of the Star Wars reviews I read today (in Slate, I think) makes reference to Bush as Darth Dubyus.  Nice.

BTW, I'm pretty fired up with the generally positive reviews for this ep.

Oh god, serious BOS contention from Parliament!  "We're gonna tear the roof off the mother, sucker!"


Kinda reaching Katrina status though.  I'm not familiar enough with Parliment to suggest another track, but there must be something....


I'm a bit new here...  could someone explain the "Katrina" reference?

Thanks.


A "Katrina" is a song that comes up frequently/has become overplayed in a particular year. Named after Katrina & the Waves, whose "Walking on Sunshine" was (for a while) a staple of 1985 sets.


To be clear, it does not mean the song itself is no good.  The Parliment track is excellent, just shows up alot.  Hell, I even used to dig "Walking On Sunshine."


Thanks all.  It turns out that I still *really* like "Walking on Sunshine"...  guess I haven't heard too many 1985 10at10s.
Now I'm eight bits...

VVHM for The Spinners.  I love this song, and arranged it for the Stanford Band about 15 years ago.  I think they still play it, which gives me endless pride.

"Rubberband Man", a song forever changed by Office Depot.

I remember digging the few times they'd segue from Man Smart into Iko Iko (or the other way around), since they're essentially the same song anyway.
Absolutely!  It always took a while until I could figure out which song it was!

Aiko Aiko!

Doobs again, "It Keeps You Runnin" -- another proxy WOS for Gaz.

Has dave ever played the Carly Simon version?

WOS, the doobie brothers.  Second time today.  The song has changed, my reaction remains the same.

Looks like we're going to make it through two 1976 sets without hearing from Peter Frampton or Gary Wright.  What are the odds?

Likewise. I usually went by whose turn it was in the set (Man Smart=Bob, Aiko=Jerry).
Let's get right to it.
