Got a meeting dropped in my lap for 10am, so I will be missing most or all of this one. If it's as good as yesterday's we'll be doing well.

T.Heads "Moon Rocks" -- serious rarity if not a bustout. BOS2

ETA: serious rarity indeed: one prev appearance -- in a DM-era set nearly TEN years ago!

I think the announcer dude said the second movie in the series rather than the third. Did I hear that right?

"We got the message / I heard it on the airwaves
The politicians / Are now DJ's"

Quite possible.

John Simon called The Empire Strikes Back "malodorous offal," however this clip is indeed
from 1983.  Ebert's retort of "I don't know what he did as a child" is apparently widely known.
