indeed -- plus, it seems like we just did '89... but it was April 18th. We won't escape FYC-less this thime, I'll wager.
Thankfully, I'm off to a meeting.
-
BWAH! And with that: Fine Young Cannibals! At least it's not that other over-played one....
-

I was about to say that at least Dave's off to a good start by playing the other non-Katrina track from the Nevilles since "Yellow Moon" was the 2nd biggest Katrina after "Good Thing".
But before I could finish that thought ......

A number of baseball games and a frosty beverage or two. ;)

To me? "Good Thing" bugs me less than "She Drives Me Crazy".
Hoo... hoo....

No, "Good Thing" is the Big Katrina, "She Drives Me Crazy" was the lesser of the the two. And "Don't Look Back" is the one he never plays

what was that broccolli comment?
-
what was that broccolli comment?
Bush I said that he didn't have to eat broccolli any more "cause I'm the president".
-
You couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting "She Drives Me Crazy" in '89. To make it worse- the song bugs after awhile. I guess that's what I meant by "overplayed" as opposed to "Katrinafied".
-

The future's not ours to see.
-
I like brocoli best of all the green veggies.

Oh, well- que sera, sera....

They were both #1 hits, but in 18 sets I surveyed last year, the score was 12 Good Things & 4 She Drives Me Crazys, and only 2 FYC-free sets.

"Pedro dreams of being older, and killin' the old man..."
BOS Lou!

And those 4 times? Were like a dagger in my ear.

BMBOS (best music bed of set): The People's Court theme under the Ollie North/Jim Bakker trial coverage.

For some reason, I like broccoli a lot more after hearing Bush's comment. :)
-
Everyone pull out the lighters for "When I See You Smile," a lazy vocal from Mr. Waite that nevertheless shot Bad English to #1. (The preceding single, "Forget Me Not," was far superior, and so of course it tanked at #45 or thereabouts.)
So I missed "She Drives Me Crazy" (one of my least favorites of all time) and Lou's "Dirty Boulevard," eh? What else? (I just got off the phone, was interviewing Barry Scott of the Lost 45s radio show for this Voice piece. Very nice guy, and he loves being corrected by people who listen to his show with Whitburn in hand.)
-
VHM to Rundgren and Womack, "For the Want of a Nail," just for that drawn-out opening. Is he imitating Robert Palmer a bit there?

This song would be better if, like, Poison had done it.

No, you missed "Good Thing". But, I mentioned I was glad it wasn't the other overplayed (in '89) one ("She Drives Me Crazy") becuase I hate that song, too.
But, then Mshray wanted to make sure I totally understoof that "Good Thing" was the official Katrina and "She Drives Me Crazy" was indeed hardly ever played on 10at10. And I said "OK".

GT is the more overplayed of the two, no doubt, but SDMC has earned a Katrina status all its own. And, I would suggest, HFH status (though I'm apparently alone in that camp).
Oh, to hear "Batdance" or "BUffalo Stance" ...

Let's hook him up with Dave!

You ain't alone, amigo. I hates "She Drives Me Crazy" like the rest of you hate RUSH!
-
The Call BOS - unless I hear adrian belew "Oh Daddy"
-
Near-WOS to "Let the Day Begin," since I'm too cynical to enjoy "Everything Is Beautiful" message songs.
-
HM to the Traveling Dingleberries.
-
The Traveling Wilburys haven't aged well, I would argue. These songs wouldn't have gotten on the radio if not for celebrity cachet. At least they learned from this song never to put Dylan on a harmony vocal.
-

from your keyboard to God's ear.
or "Bust a Move" or "Walk the Dinosaur". And even if Dave wasn't listening to anything other than KFOG in '89, surely there are dozens of other songs he could play but chooses not to.

BOS - Handle With Care
( This is actually for the *whole* Travelling Willburys album ... it's so great!! )
-
Changing my BOS!

anything that put Roy Orbison on the radio can't be all bad. In December of that year I bought a RO GH album -- and two days later he died.

Go Kreskin, Go Kreskin, GO!
This is sounding good today. Glad you got yer wish.
-

Dude! Thanks for telepathically influencing Dave!

Here's Rastermon's Adrian Beleu or howevers ya spell it.

Kinda catchy. Never heard it.

"Don't hold your breath / Cause it'll make you blue"
One of my favorite lines ever -- I love this kind of wordplay.
-
BOS #3 - XTC "Mayor Of Simpleton"
-
More wordplay! BOS to the Mayor of Simpleton!
P.S. I finally learned where this title was taken from. But I can't find the paper I wrote it down on!
-
My BOS to INXS.

BOS to the Mayor of Simpleton...please be upstanding....

Speaking of Dylan, they played some Wallflowers early this morning & I called in & mentioned to Dave that Jakob's dad has a birthday coming up on Tues & that I had an idea for a 10@10 theme set. He asked me to elaborate & I said that, recalling his cow-bell set from last year, maybe we could have a harmonica set, since any 10-song set featuring the harmonica would certainly include a Dylan tune.
He said, "That's a pretty good idea, I'll look into it."
-
My BOS to INXS.
make that XTC?
-
Mrs. Gandhi Stoned at Rally"
Both readings of this are equally problematic.
P.S. Dave played "Laid So Low (Tears Roll Down)" in the wrong year AGAIN? That song was '92. He needs to fix that db glitch!
-
Kudos to the Fogheads for giving Lou BOS -- that whole album is a perfect crystallization of 1989. If Dave's played it before it was a while ago.
-
My BOS to INXS.
make that XTC?
Yeah. That one.
Congrats, Rastermon! You've had to correct me. It's like a right-of-passage around here.

Listened to the replay as I sit here doing expense reports that are due tomorrow before my corporate superior returns to the head office. This was really not a bad set, especially after we got Bad English & FYC out of the way.

You're stilled considered a smart-ass, so you got that going for you.
Which is good.
