Walking on Sunshine!
Hah! Wonder if she knows about Katrinas...

Walking on Sunshine!
The mother of all Katrinas -- it's as if AL knew to keep up the tradition.
-
I'll have to listen to this later, Let's hope this is the only Katrina
-
And just for us, she leads with the Mother of all Katrinas. I did explain the etymology of that phrase to her when I invited her to check out the board. Coincidence?
ETA: It does make a pretty good TOTHK...

Ah phooey, ya beat me to it. And here I thought I'd get to start a topic for once!

Funny, Big Rick used Live Aid as the answer to one of his quizzes late last week.

It IS a fun bouncy tune, but it will always be emblematic of... the other thing.

actually, "And We danced" got more play from Dave in the last couple years than Katrina.
ooo! the horses are on the track!

Oh man, have you guys seen this ad on the wharf? Worst. Painting. Ever.

And the irony of it being adjacent to not only an "In-N-Out" sign as well as a Cigar Shop billboard is not lost on me.
-
And I am quite fond of that hooters tune. Melodicas, right?

"Hey hey hey! Oooo ooooh. (Don't you) forget about me."
I can't. They play this in regular rotation.

Don't know this B.A.D. tune--bustout? The DB only has E=MC2 and Medicine Show in '85.

I love that Michael Anthony Hall line: "Chicks... cannot hol' dey smoke -- dat's what it is..."

really? that's amazing. "Bottom Line" I think it's called -- 'twas a rock-radio hit in NYC fer shurr.
-

That's what hooters are, melodicas
-
Heard it a bunch over the years, but can't deny the catchiness or the anthemic quality of Don't You Forget About Me.
This is the song that Jim Kerr can retire on (and maybe his kids, too).

Hrm, the stream is choking a little bit...

You and me both. And I think I have here too. Although it's in the DB just once--I could swear...

Re: melodicas, San Jose fogheads probably remember that guy who shows up at Morning Show remotes w/ his, right?
Renee made an early mention of the Local Music Month in August, and my wife and I were both kind of bummed that Dave won't be at Gordon Biersch this year. :-{

That got a big BOS from me in the car.
It's called "The Bottom Line", and it's on the same album as the other two (which I own, if anyone needs mp3's).
Whoa-hoa!
Siouxsie & The Banshees BOS "Cities In Dust".
-
OMFG! a Siouxie bustout-- an ATBB methinks! BOS3

Re: melodicas, San Jose fogheads probably remember that guy who shows up at Morning Show remotes w/ his, right?
I not only remember that guy, we became friends over the years at those remotes. His name is Dave Coldren & once upon a time he even logged on here for about 3 posts. He quit a good job at KLA-Tencor to do music full time.

very 80s sounding set. BOS2 Siouxsie

Nope, a friend who's a *huge* Durannie (is that phrase still in use?) shot it and posted it on her FB album.

BOS #4 here too, although not a bustout either.
How come this never got used in pride sets is beyond me.

Re: Duran Duran @ Filmore, this lede cracked me up:
The last time Duran Duran headlined a show in the Bay Area, it was for 12,000 people at one of those concrete cattle sheds in the suburbs. On Tuesday, the long-running British pop band made its return to the much more compact Fillmore, inspiring the kind of pandemonium in the city's thirtysomething population not seen since NBC canceled "Will & Grace."

Thought we had an artist BO for sure, but no. VHM.

His wife was Ann, as I recall, and both of their kids attended one time or the other. very cool people.

Dave actually played this? I've no recollection
OMFG2: FYC's Johnny gets BOS5.
Note how often AL starts out with a couple of overplayed "classics" and then overwhelms us with bustouts'n'rarities. Impressive.
-

correct. Johnny Come Home, I think it's called.
-

all bald guys look like penises. that's the appeal of the shaved head/goatee look, esp among gay guys.

was that movie clip earlier from Mask? Here we have a Sonny and Cher cover!

Was that Small Town Boy? Dave used it in a couple of '84 sets.

BOS6 (!) Chrissie/UB40 "I Got You Babe" -- one of my favorite covers.

Do you know, or could you inquire, what kind of camera she used, and how she got it in?
I love shooting concerts, but dread draconian "no photo/video policies" that are arbitrarily enforced. (Little point-and-shoots are ok, but supposedly "professional" SLRs are not, even though there are small cameras that can shoot excellent photos, and an SLR does not automatically make you a pro photographer. And of course camera phones continue to get better -- are they going to make people start bringing their iPhones back to their cars?)
Just wondering what the Fillmore's (or Duran Duran's) policy is these days. Thanks.

Yeah, it was. I had to look it up. I never saw that -- sounds sad.
-

Yep, Cher and Eric Stoltz in one of his first big roles. That film launched both of their film careers, iirc.
-
UB40 & Chrissie, another almost bustout. Only in the Db once 4 1/2 yrs ago.
BOS whatever.
-

Indeed. Tricky. Makes me think she might be reading some of these boards.

BOS to "I Got You Babe". One of my faves as well.

actually, Silkwood was pre-Mask. But it was Stoltz's debut (after he got fired from Back to the Future and replaced by MJ Fox).

it is sad. It'll make you cry, but it's good.

I never saw the movie either, but that clip filled me with parental guilt!

I'm pretty sure she uses one of the Panasonic Lumix point-and-shoot models that comes with a Leica lens. She gets really good concert shots with it, so I've asked her what it is. My wife just got a similar model at Costco, but its shutter lag is horrendous--it sucks for action shots. But it's good in low light without a flash.
As to photo policies, the Fillmore used to go with whatever the band wanted. If the band was OK with it, you could bring in a pro video camera and a 24-track recorder. If they weren't, you'd have to smuggle a point-and-shoot in your pants and hope no one spotted you. No idea what Duran Duran's policy is--my friend works security at the Fillmore (but wasn't working at this show) so she gets away with a lot.

I don't cry easily at movies -- and I certainly never expected a Grateful Dead song to move me in that way -- but it did at the end of Mask and I def got choked up.

Not quite, Stoltz had a couple lines in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. He and his real life roommate Anthony Edwards were the two stoners buds in the van. Edwards did not have a line.

well, I meant "his first starring role". Yeah, that's the ticket.

correct. Johnny Come Home, I think it's called.
I had to leave for work and missed this. BOS2! I loved this song at the time - its video was getting play on "Night Tracks" or "Night Flight" or one of those video shows. Maybe MTV itself?
Siouxsie was NTM as well; sounded better on the replay. BOS3. I interviewed their bassist, Steve Severin, for a friend's website many years ago, but I'm afraid I have no memory of the interview or what project he was promoting. Yikes.

Today's set had such a nice flow :)
It started off kind of blah IMO...then she played the ever-so-mainstream but still ever-so-good Don't You Forget About Me (BOS 1), and then when she played Siouxsie & the Banshees (BOS2) I just about fell out of my chair & again with Bronski Beat (BOS3). It also (as has been mentioned) had a nice 80s feel to it, complete with a peak slightly after the middle & then coming down nicely.
Smalltown Boy followed by Johnny Come Home was clever.
7/15/09 - Wednesday! Sounds like...1985!!!

yeah, it really picked up w Simple Minds. That song may sound overplayed to some, but I always enjoy it. The Duran2 is a nice over BOS choice, I agree w lufaphs. I was disappointed when they did not play that live a few years back at the GG Park Convert they did (Maroon 5 and Seal opened).
