Post by: urth on September 28, 2006, 09:59:23 AM

I vaguely remember this song, but can't tell ya who it is.

First instinct is Rick Springfield, but I don't think thati's it. Very similar sounding though.

damn phone call made me miss MSB -- tho' I prefer their '70s stuff.

But I'm with urth -- not a promising start. Of course, it coulda been a '90s set as part of Crock of Ages.

I'll BOS this too -- tho' I'd've preferred "Friends of Mr Cairo".  Polyphonic Spree should cover this one, pronto.

Forgot to mention this yesterday--did anyone catch the ad that followed yesterday's Ginger-set for the Styx/Oreo Speedcookie concert someplace in the Boulder area? Wonder when that bill is going to get to Konocti, and collectively how many original members are taking part?

Got me. But I think I called three or four songs in one set a few months back. Mike's done that a few times too.

His voice sounds kind of strained here--a bit of indulgence between 77 and 81, Mr. Gibb?

Hahaha!  The legacy of Styx, summarized in 12 words.

PS: Andy Gibb in 1981 serves only one purpose, and that's as an anti-drug advertisement. (LOL at "it's VP's fault," though -- he really did work that angle to the press . . .)

Kind of an amusing back-to-back, though: from Celebration's black appropriation of white culture to Rapture's white appropriation of black culture.  or something like that.
