Title: 17 February 2009--it's 1987
Post by: mshray on February 17, 2009, 10:02:37 AM
If the next song is Robbie Neville, we can forget it.

This is not the 2nd, not the 3rd, but 4th time this set has been played, and it is as full of Katrina's as it is possible to be. YIKES!!

Hell in a Bucket

I presume I told you before that I attended a video shoot for this song?  What a zoo, literally.

This set is going to hell in a bucket, and I am NOT enjoying the ride.  Tune #10 is the only one I can look forward to hearing.

not sure what you find objectionable about U2's "In God's Country"

I'd give a spoiler alert, but nothing could spoil this set more than it already is.

1.) Squeeze - Hourglass
2.) Robbie Nevil - C'Est La Vie
3.) Grateful Dead - Hell In A Bucket
4.) U2 - In God's Country
5.) Pink Floyd - On The Turning Away
6.) Crowded House - Don't Dream It's Over
7.) Prince - Sign O' The Times
8.) Eric Clapton - Run
9.) Bourgeois Tagg - I Don't Mind At All
10.) Love & Rockets - No New Tale To Tell

That's the attitude! When does Dave return? Ever?

Not objectionable at all, in fact I'd give it a VHM.  But not one that excites me, as would say, "Trying To Throw Your Arms Around The World" or "Mothers of the Disappeared".

I may lose heart after this one, but "On The Turning Away" is a beautiful, powerful song, the answer to their own "Us and Them"

Another VHM for David Gilmour, I mean Pink Floyd.   (Though I think that's a minority view around here.)

I'm a little more upbeat on this set--I'm cool with tunes #7 and #9, but the fact that this set has been played as much as it has is unconscionable.

agreed, and it is the only song in this set that could qualify as a rarity, except that we heard all of this twice in the previous 14 months.

Tunes 1, 2, 3, 6 & 10 are all massive Katrina's ("C'est La Vie" is the biggest one in the Db!), and tunes 4, 7 & 8 are on the cusp of Katrinadom.

I think Mike woulda WOS'd it.

Even the newsclips (Falwell, Gary Hart) make me feel icky.

Plus, we've hit '87 3 times in 6 weeks. >:(

Here's my BOS pick for the set, as it probably was the first three times we heard it: Bourgeois Tagg's I Don't Mind At All.

Several years ago I said goodbye to my own sanity...

I was digging it more than maybe I did in previous listens, so I'll cough up a BOS #1 for it, and BOS #2 for L&R, even if it is a Katrina, because it never fails to take me back to my arrival in San Diego in Aug '87, a fun period in my life.

and as a bonus, it's being played in the correct year, which iirc Dave hasn't always done.
