Title: 11 Nov 2015: it's... 1984
Post by: RGMike on November 11, 2015, 08:36:13 AM
Presumably '80s (unless 2005 is in the pipeline).  Then another '90s set tomorrow (or maybe '60s?) and a "lucky" set for Friday the 13th.

1984: Spinal Tap. This set goes to 11/11. Heh.

Broooooooooce with a Veteran's Day TOTHK.  Nicely played, AL.

Bruce COCK-burn. "Lovers in a Dangerous Time". No wonder his cock burns.

Tuned in just in time for a Spinal Tap click and the Kinks, Living on a Thin Line. Not one of their more notable songs, but a VHM nonetheless.

He certainly seemed to play up that image, starting with Lola of course, but also via a fairly fey onstage persona.

"He said 'hey, are you gay? Can you come out to play?' And like a fool I went and said OK."

But employed very well in a memorable Sopranos episode
