A good start with the Pretenders "Message of Love". They did this (along with most other hits) at the Mountain Winery last Saturday. A great show.
-
BOS Chrissie & Co; WOS LoverSagaBoy (sorry, can't tell 'em apart).

Wasn't Saga Canadian, too?
I have to give Blubberboy an HM. Saw them in 82 and they were awesome.

The set can only get better from here. These guys truly represented the worst of the early 80s.

"Turn Me Loose" is worth an OMGWTFLOL. He's down on his knees, making love to whoever he please. Hard to be flexible in those red vinyl pants.
-
the guitarist is pretty great, the headband on the singer not so much.

However, say what you will, this one is a bustout per the DB. Dave only played Workin' For The Weekend, in both '81 and '82.
-
oh wow, Devo! BOS!
It's A Beautiful World/Set that features these Akronites!
-
Ah, there we go. Super-segue points to AL for Ronnie's inauguration into Beautiful World. BOS1 Devo.
We are not men!
ETA: Bustout #2!
-
BOS2 Devo, "Beautiful World" -- AL loves her some devolution: we got "Through Being Cool" in the last '81 set.

I'm gobsmacked to hear that -- sure seems like we've heard it a million times! I guess Bob's played it in his '82 sets quite often.
One Beautiful World is enuf, Mr Sumner.

Which is not a bustout, but only barely. Just one previous play. And I'm gobsmacked about that. Must be Ginger. (Which reminds me: is she still fillin' in afternoons on The Band?)
-

and those are my two favorite Devo songs, no less.
"One World" is nearly a bustout, having only one appearance more than 5 yrs ago.

Who'd you get to go with?
I'm sure sorry I missed my chance, but it wasn't possible.
-
hey baby, speak into "Mr Microphone", if ya know whut ah mean.
OMFG! Lene Lovich -- bustout of the week!! BOS3 "New Toy"

For a whopping 10 frink points, whose career was launched by writing this song for Ms. Lovich?

Have this vague memory it was Ian Dury? But that can't be right.

I'm sure sorry I missed my chance, but it wasn't possible.
I went with Bob Kenyon, who I know from RadioParadise, Facebook, and real life playing Christmas carols in a saxophone group.

Ditto. I know most people like the Pretenders too, but I can't stand them (except for "Human," which is just on the upper side of tolerable.) Loverboy is hella cheezy, but to their credit at least they try to be.
BOS to Devo so far. & Lene Lovich gets an HM.
-
cool, my New Toy is a Red Barchetta!

Cindy Lauper? This sounds a lot like her.
-
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
WOS2 Rush, but of course!
-
coo, my New Toy is a Red Barchetta!
Yay! The beginning of this song is most cool.

I was thinking the same thing! But her career was launched by singing lead with Blue Angel, technically.
-
OMFGWTFLOL!!!!
BOS "Red Barchetta"
-
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
WOS2 Rush, but of course!
I will say they aren't pronouncing the car correctly. If it's Italian, it should be "bar-KET-ta" (hard "K" sound).
Other than that, the song is FREAKING AWESOME! Adrenaline Surge!

I should clarify: I was referring only to Loverboy as representing the worst of the early 80s. The Pretenders were and are great.
Not digging the Rush too much either, but I bet there's someone here who's liking them even less.
But it's another bustout, in a set that's been full of them.

Good one, "New Toy" actually is about a car, & it was written by Thomas Dolby.
-
Felder? I hardly knew her!
I bet this is a bustout too: Heavy Metal
I think the other Don (Henley) is doing backup vox...
-
Felder? I hardly knew her!
Good one. ;) BOS for Don taking that ride.
And beyond that, many years ago when I saw Eagles, Don Felder was the surprise winner in the guitar solos competition. He was good! And that's against Joe Walsh!
-
HOLEE SHIT!!!!!
Take a ride-ride-ride-ride on heavy metal.
In the week before Thanksgiving 1979, I rode on a Greyhound bus from Indianapolis to Cincinnati with Don Felder's totally hot younger female cousin. The Eagles played Cincy the next night, and as I've mentioned here before the infamous Who concert took place two weeks later.
-

wow, another bustout for a song that's all-but-forgotten... for a reason.
The "South Park" parody of Heavy Metal was hilarious, tho'.
funny how a set with so many bustouts could nonetheless seem so Moreyesque.
-
Not hard to draw the line from the Eagles to Heavy Metal--this sounds like an outtake from The Long Run. HM just 'cause I haven't heard it in ages, but it's not rocking my world. But tally another one in the bustout column.
-

Thomas (Robertson) Dolby?

Well, it does NOW for sure. Look out for that goddamn Man from Mars again. He's back and he's hungry.
-
hate to gripe, given the number of bustouts, but I don't need to hear "Rapture" again for a good long time.
"take a too-ah
thru da soo-ah"
-

uh... yeah. same here. I'll take Aerosmith's Walk this Way rap over Debroah's.

Agreed.

but you do need to hear Fab Five Freddy get namechecked again, along with Grand Master Flash. That never gets old.

I didn't even realize he'd given us the answer, since I couldn't tell what that Lovich song was called.

I'll assume we are operating under the cadet's honor system adn give you full credit.
-
not sure what this is, but given the synth 80s sound, I think shray will BOS it. I will too!

oo! oo! I know! But I'll let someone else guess.

Me three! Although I'm as clueless as to the identity of the singer as you are. One more bustout though, safe to say.
-
and speaking of movies: BOS5 H&O from 500 days of Summer What ah got -- full stop!
-

I will, fer sure.
And Annalisa is making my dreams come true in 1981. Unlike the rest of you curmudgeons, I can't WOS anything in this set, as it covers the highlights of my dorm years in college. Dorm dances for very single one of these songs.

Need to get out and see that one--but it's playing at only two theaters in all of Portland. Arrggghh.

Hmmm, could it be the guy who played Dumbledore? Probably not since it sounds like he was already old in 1981.
-
as you might guess, I was the one who reminded Annalisa that TD wrote New Toy.
-
well if you know Chariots of Fire at all, you know that what you heard was the eulogy in the first scene that 'Harold Abrahams' gave for 'Eric Liddell', which means that the actor was Ben Cross, who played 'Sarek' in Star Trek this year. It's a good thing that the movie involved time travel, as Cross is 16 years younger than his 'son' Nimoy.

Bonus question, What kind of car is a Barchetta? (hint: it's not Canadian...)
some guy said "It's an italian made car"
which is correct! Analisa asked him to clarify: "ok, who makes it?" The dude said "Fiat."
bzzzzzt!
the answer is Ferrrari.
the winner could choose b/w:
Soft Cell Tainted Love
David Lindley Crazy 'Bout a Mercury
but he chose Another Tricky Day by the Who.

Fiat does appear to be making a car called the Barchetta.

you're right.
But, per wikipedia, production started in 90 -- well after Geddy & Co. chimed in. Still, the first dude should have gotten partial credit, like he could request half a song.. :)

-
worth noting, I think, that 3 of today's artists were also played in AL's only-other 1981 set in July: Devo, Rush, and Blondie. But two of those (Devo & Rush) provided bustouts today. AL managed a very Dave-like set while only playing a couple of tunes he's ever actually featured. Quite a feat, IMHO.
-
6. Rush - Red Barchetta BOS! Eat it, Rush haters!
I had to go and look directly at the KFOG site to see you inserted those BOS comments!
-
6. Rush - Red Barchetta BOS! Eat it, Rush haters!
I had to go and look directly at the KFOG site to see you inserted those BOS comments!
LOL! AL did say Rush earned BOS today -- although the KFOG site didn't say it when I copied the set list -- but I should have made it clear that it was an editorial comment. Which I will do now.. :)
