And to commemorate the departure of the GD tape vault from the KFOG listening area...Throwing Stones.

might have to take a Mulligan, but we'll see.

Dave said "quality time in 1987" but that's an oxymoron, no?
Unless there's a surprise or 2 in store, that is.

if we all fall down in ashes, we'll end up with a touch of grey.
-
well, OK, VHM Pretenders. But my usual '87 Wish List still applies, not that Dave will ever play Aretha & George, or "Talk Dirty To Me".
-
Yeeesh! "KatrinaGlass"... the downhill descent begins.
-
George without Aretha. Ya gotta have faith-ah, faith-ah, FAITH-AH!
Me, I've lost faith that this will be anything other than a by-the-book Monday set.

In reality, it probably has nothing to do with today's set save for the Grateful Dead connection but I was referring to this:

Mr Allman shows us his tattoo. Or maybe it's one of Cher's. Whatever.

I see -- thanks. I thought the "KFOG listening area" was some special room at the station. But you meant the bay area. So I got it.

This is actually a pretty good song, but that line isn't the best.
-
I went to check out KINK, They're playing a song I don't recognize, and their just-played feature is cut off at 9:49.
But I notice they're playing that "Dear Mr President" song by Pink! I am most impressed!
ETA: They're doing 2001 today -- that's just TOO recent. John Mayer on 10@10 is just plain wrong.

BOS "April Skies"
-
tasty, great album
-
Speaking of lines that make no sense: "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle when you're trying to throw your arms around the world."
It made for a clever bumpersticker (long before Bono got ahold of it), but what the hell does that have to do with the rest of the song?
-
marry her Alex!
-
marry her Alex!
Was this when he broke up with Courtney Cox? Or Tracey Pollan?
-
marry her Alex!
One of the great left-field hits of the '80s, for sure, nonexistent production values & all.
ohwhatthehell: BOS2.

LOL! don't Bono and his wife have, like 6 or 7 kids?
-
it's the end of this set as we know it. I wish.

I still don't understand the "LB" thing (Leonid Breshnev, Lenny Bruce, Lester Bangs...) Anyone have an insight? Just Stipes being obscure?
-
BOS3 Julian Cope -- "Rudy, Shut Your Mouth"?

And as it turns out, it was the wrong bloody year anyway...
-
ha! none of us noticed Dave's mistake -- sure sign of a dull set.
Glad that's over!

I love 80s music (loved the Casey Kasem American Top 40 shows XM played over the weekend on it's 80's channel, they also did the 70's channel with the top 40 show) but this one was pretty boring.
WOS goes to George Michael. He makes me want to scream in pain. If KFOG ever played Michael Bolton (unless it's on the Hits from Hell show), I may just destroy every radio in my house.

You know, I think 10@10 has missed Bolton entirely, even HFH. Mark, can you confirm? I find most of his stuff dreadful though I wouldn't mind hearing his cover of "To Love Somebody" or even "Said I Loved You ... But I Lied." But now that you've brought him up, next time there's a Friday the 13th, I'm gonna nominate "Can I Touch You ... There?"

Revoltin' Bolton is thankfully missing from my archives, and I share SF Guy's sentiments/loathing. The last two times I caught a matinee at the nearest theater to my office I could hear stuff from his album of Sinatra covers being piped out to the parking lot. Yuck!!!!

i think he has a wonderful voice. i love his cover of "rocky mountain way." and i'd vote for "can i touch you...there," too. but the best, the ULTIMATE would be to hear a recorded version of his performance with patti labelle at some awards show years ago...they did an hommage to marvin and tammy. it was outta sight!
ETA: i found the video (http://youtube.com/watch?v=HUCf5-EfdLs).

this video does indeed show how good his pipes are, but there is an uneasy stage presence between these two mega egos. Yes, there is some face-to-face time, as there should be in this song, but lots of backing off of that to individual attempts to impress the audience with their solo talents.

i think he was intimidated by patti, so maybe she was alternatively encouraging him to go for it, and not to step on her toes.

I can understand that. I'm intimidated by All-Beef Patti.

That's why "On My Own" worked so well: All-Beef Patti and Mickey (Mc)D!

"Black goes south and white comes north" -- Any authoritative statement on whether this line refers to race trends in migration, or the Colombian drug trade, or something else entirely?

According to the scholarly Annotated GD Songs website at http://arts.ucsc.edu/gdead/agdl/throwing.html
"Shipping powders back and forth..."
In Conversations with the Dead, David Gans reveals that he wrote these lines about cocaine and gunpowder.
