Early BOS to Robert Palmer.  This song always makes me think of a Schwab employee who sent me a note about it when it played on Dave's Pride set in '97.  Gil was a sweetheart who hung around with assholes.  Would be neat to find out what became of him.

WOS to "Hold the Line": musically it's fine, but the singer takes it way over the top, Pablo Cruise-style.

BOS votes for the first two songs; number three, not so much. However, the set has a real upbeat tone today, so I have high hopes.

Not a coincidence - the first half of the Morning Show was dedicated to songs that cheer you up, or, as Dave called them, "Mood Elevators". He even played the Partridge Family theme in its entirety.

BOS "Badlands"

I've been to one Bruce show (Aug 03 at Pac Bell Park) and he played this -- not a surprise, but what surprised me was how emotional it was for me to hear it played and then sing along.  Never considered myself a huge Bruce fan, but man that was fun and, of course, the whole thing a great show.

I was at that show (as were others here, iirc). Yeah, that was a great show--I never cease to be amazed at Bruce's ability to connect with the crowd, no matter how big the venue.

Too bad you missed his legendary shows in the 70's/80's, he'd tell long stories and really jump around the stage for four hours.  Of course now you can (and should) see those on DVD or YouTube!

Yep, a 9-way tie. Only that damn Toto tune kept me from voting an across-the-board sweep.

And I know what you mean about 78. It's real hit-and-miss: it can suck or you can get a set like this one. Usually it's somewhere in between.

Hrm. That fool Webster came up with a lame question for the Bonus quiz (what was today's best of set?) but he did get the winning foghead to bite for a pretty rare Jam tune: Down in the Tube Station at Midnight, off All Mod Cons.

Btw, I hadn't heard Webster much before this week, but I gotta say, I would cringe if he took over Dave's chair on the morning show. Seems just a little cocky, and his start-stop herkyjerky vocal delivery is pretty annoying.

You have hit the nails on the heads.  I'd say more than just a little cocky, and now anytime he speaks more than a sentence at a time I start mentally puncuating his discourse with commas, ellipses, dashes & parentheses:

"Blah blah, blah...blah blah blah - blah blah - blah blah, blah...blah blah (blah blah blah), blah blah."
