Title: 26 February 2008--it's 1993
Post by: urth on February 26, 2008, 09:18:10 AM
Heard a promo yesterday evening. Dave and Ginger seem to be somewhat in sync--early 70s yesterday, 90s today--where will tomorrow take us?

(Actually, we have a mandatory all-hands meeting tomorrow at 10, so I will miss tomorrow fo' sho'.)

Cue the Haddaway! Not looking forward to this at all.

Did we get Lenny Kravitz's "Believe" in our last '93 visit?  Or was that someone else's set?  Not complaining - I love this song - just curious.

survey says -- not since June 2006.  So it would have to have been Ginger or Rob.

It only appears in my Db in this year, but it is definitely a Katrina.  Not as bad as Haddaway, which is itself not quite as bad as Annie L's "Little Bird" or Cranberries "Dreams".

that's amazing -- he's def played it in the wrong year at least 2 or 3 times, iirc. (I wanna say 1989 is the incorrect year of choice).

I love UB40, and this is in fact a bustout, but I have to agree with Mike.  WOS #1 from me.

At a bout 9:15 Dave mentioned that it was going tobe 1993 today, and he said that "it's going to be a really good set.  At least it looks good on paper."

Gin Blossoms "Mrs. Rita" is the only thing that remotely qualifies as looking good on paper as far as I'm concerned, so I'll have to give it a BOS.  Sure wish they'd stuck around longer and produced more albums.

I was thinking the computers had taken a crap again, but we just heard the SH6 bumper so they either rebooted fast, or Dave got caught without a 93 bumper cued up.

WOS2 Zhane -- sorry, another frequent flier and I *HATE* Dave's habit of playing the same 2 or 3 R&B records repeatedly in each late-'80s/early '90s year.

One of two R&B songs from the '90s that Dave knows: Zhane, "Hey Mr. DJ."

I was just looking at this in the Db and noting that it has only appeared in late Feb or early Mar, and so I was going to strongly predict hearing it today.  Too late to be psychic tho'

My bro' lives in Tempe, AZ, I recall seeing Gin Blossoms in small club there early 90's. Cool to see a group when they're just about to hit it big. Unfortunately one of their main guys killed himself, sealing the fate of their short run at the top.

Dave has more guilty pleasures than legitimate ones, I fear.

Trivia I just learned the other day: "Creep" has such a similar chord progression to "The Air That I Breathe" that Albert Hammond Sr. sued and won himself a writing credit on the song.  Personally, I don't hear the connection.

you do rc, and although I haven't seen an ep either I still know what it is.

Cna't believe I can offer a 3rd BOS, but Radiohead deserves one.  However I think I'm already up to four WOS votes anyway.

I didn't know the factoid about the successful lawsuit, but I have always heard the similarity.

This is from the album Pablo Honey, and in 1993 I was living in Taiwan and watched this video on the MTV Japan channel, and they always listed the album as Pabro Honey.

There's a section of the bridge that's dead on copped from TATIB. If the Stones had to kick down to kd lang, then Thom definitely needs to tighten up Albert.

And I could swear we heard a non-reversed "fuckin'" there at the end of the song.

Well, we're talking chords not melody -- I can see where he might see that, but who else would without prompting?

The evening 10@10 was from 1994. I believe it was from January 29, 2007 from reading the "Shraytabase" as it started with Leaving Las Vegas from Sheryl Crow and had Bruce's Streets of Philadelphia and the Crash Test Dummies Song.
