Dave didn't drop any hints in the 6:00 hour, but he did say today's his last day before vacay (home to the folks in Indiana). Which means Friday's Pride Set will be a "classic" again. And I wouldn't be surprised if we get a rerun today too -- he sounds like he can't WAIT to get away.

Not that any of us would be able to tell the difference.
From memory:
1. Tom Robinson, "Glad to Be Gay"
2. Tim Finn, "Hit the Ground Running"
movie segue: "But why are you wearing THESE clothes?" "I've just gone GAY, all of a sudden!" "Stop this nonsense!"
3. Sylvester, "You Make Me Feel Mighty Real"
4. Melissa Etheridge, "Yes I Am"
interlude: people being proud at Pride
5. Elton John, "Simple Life"
6. Timbuk 3, "Legalize Our Love"
interlude: something weepy
7. Flirtations, the lullaby song ("Everything Possible"?)
and now I forget what the other three standbys are.

Frighteningly on target, bub.
also JJ, "Real Men", and last year he played "I Kissed a Girl".

Let's not forget the "Ellen" coming-out clips.

You are correct -- it was newly recorded. But I think he was actually on vacay, iirc, which made me think "classic".
What was the year that Ali & I went to Dave's house for June-A-Palooza? Every Friday that month was a "classic".
-

That woulda been '03, & I went to the Winchester House for Friday June 13th. In '04 their local South Bay thing was downtown SJ & last year they only got as far south as Redwood City, which Ali attended with me. In '04 Ali & POC went bowling in Colma with Dave & the gang and our Princess sang a French song on the radio.
-
Dave said as he signed off the morning show that this would indeed be a classic--he's beating it to the airport for a plane to Indy.
-
damn, sounds like a "classic" from '79 -- Dave obviously left early.

I don't mind too much. the Summer set is pretty much the most boring of the whole annual calendar imho. At least the Pride sets have meaningful soundbites, y'know?
as Mike's quotes says: "We are used to it. You do this every year."
-
Look on the bright side...at least this way we definitely won't have to hear the Motels.
-
And just to get things rolling, I'll venture a VHM for Gone Hollywood. A song that should replace Breakfast in America in the KFOG rotation.
-
Since I gots the Db open I can now tell you that this set is not a repeat of one that I already have in the archive. But while scanning for that possibility I noticed that not only is "Cruel To Be Kind" the biggest 1979 Katrina, it is also likely to be the TotHC half the time it shows up.
Hey here's a Cars song I still like even though it is very silly.
"Can I touch you or are you out of touch?"
Uh, myself, I'm out of touch. Don't touch me.
-

ROTFL!

But are you a "geranium lover"? That's the real question.
ooh, "Survivor", Cindy Bullins (?) BOS
-
Is this Scandal? Don't think I've heard it before.
ETA: Cindy Bullens, eh? Had no idea she went back that far, and sounded like this. I bought her latest album based on a very different song: "It Was a Long Way Down (and I Liked Falling)" which got a lot of airplay on RadioParadise. (plug)
-

See above -- a rarity, but Dave's played it once or twice. But you're dead on: she does sound like Patty Smyth.
-
COOO-bah! BOS2
-
COOO-bah! BOS2
Yes you a-a-a-a-a-re! (didja here the tremolo there?)
-
COOO-bah! BOS2
Para bailar la salsa...
BOS for me 2.
-
OMGWTF! Patti Smith, "Dancing Barefoot". This must be an old set, I can't remember the last time Dave played this. BOS3.
-

BOS for the real Patti Smith.
-

Surprisingly, it's a bustout as far as the archive goes. Same as "Sledgehammer" yesterday.
Bos #3 Cheap Trick.
I Want. You. To Want. Me!
-
And a BOS from me for I Want You To Want Me. It just hit me how infectious this sounded when it hit in the spring of 79. These guys were on top of the world (pun intended) but their sound was light and fun--perfect for the coming summer.

"I want YOU..." to play a different Cheap Trick song occasionally. :wink:
VHM Flying Lizards. Best. Yoko. Imitation. EVAH.

Yep this set has been very evocative of the Summer of '79 for me too, that's when I was an exchange student in Germany. After Cheap Trick & Supertramp, all I need is some Buggles & Patrick Hernandez (but that was the TotHC last time around).
-
all I need is some Buggles
Psychic Pshray!
Owe-ah Owe-ah!
-
FWIW, Dave's "I thought I was the only one who remembered Cindy Bullins..." comment rang a bell. So this set might not be ancient, just more than 2 years old.
-
Bonus: Squeeze, "Cool For Cats" !

More than 2 years, and also not among the 60% or so of the sets from early '02 to early '04 in the archive.
And frankly I don't think I've ever heard the song anywhere.

I remember this set very, very well. I'd come back to SF for a week to visit (it was on this day, actually, that I met several of you to see the Princess play "Night on Broadway," "Somebody's Knocking," "The Ocean," and several originals at Cafe de la Presse; but I digresse) and was on the 38 Geary en route to the ocean during this set. "Hot Fun" came on in the avenues near all those Russian bakeries, and I called in a BOS vote; then he played Billy Stewart's "Summertime" and I recanted. T'was a lovely, lovely day.
Re Cindy Bullens, I knew we'd heard it at least once before here due to another random memory. Shortly after moving to NYC, I attended the Global Entertainment & Media Summit, an entertainment-biz conf, and Cindy was on a panel with a couple people I knew. I'd never heard of her but she was said to have placed a song or two on the Grease soundtrack. She'd just re-entered the music biz after a long period of retirement following the death of her child, and had what seemed an inflated sense of how big she'd been. Soon afterwards I heard "Survivor" for the first time and it was an instant WOS for me, reminding me in a weird way of Andrew Gold's "Lonely Boy," and you all know how I feel about that one.
OK, now I'm really blathering . . .

TotHC = Top of the Hour Cooker?
Sorry, just trying to get up to speed on all the 10@10 Club acronyms...

You got it, man!
And as I'm sure you've surmised by now:
BOS = Best of Set
WOS = Worst of Set

I had no idea she was one of the Grease girls. She is indeed credited on the sndtk (singing "It's raining on Prom Night" and others) and It's not clear if she was actually on-screen or a voice being lip-synched by one of the actresses.

VHM Flying Lizards. Best. Yoko. Imitation. EVAH.
Is that what they were going for? To my ears, it sounds far more like the French Moroccan wife of my former boss Lucifer (aka the BMMB), a vapid oxygen-waster who lives only for the spoils of DKNY.

I've no idea if that was their intention, but it always sounded like her to me. Of course people my age had heard her voice a lot in interviews. I have a vivid memory of driving around with my friend George, another New Wave Music Geek, and hearing the record for the first time when then-great WPIX-FM premiered it. And we simultaneously said out loud "Is this YOKO??"
