From his remarks closing the morning show, it sounds like Webster graduated HS in whatever year we're visiting today.
ETA: Did she say what year this was? Although it's sounding like '77 here, which means Webster is my age. Rod's too, iirc.

yup. '77 sounds about right for that scenario. Crapton, Marcy & Whinyface kick it off
ETA: Webster talked about turning 50 earlier this year, iirc.
-
Well, Star Wars was 1977, so I'm assuming that's where we are. And I really like "The Core", so no Clapton complaints from me. Zero does a great version of this too.
-
yay! The Core gets BOS
-
yay! The Core gets BOS
Me too. My favorite guitar riff, bar none.
-
Speaking of lengthy instrumentals, I'd forgotten that "The Core" meanders on so.

water rationing....
if it's yellow, let it mellow.....if it's brown, flush it down.
Sorry.

the drought makes eveything "Turn to Stone", har har

well let's hope the drought doesn't make any of us see the smoke of a distant fire.
-
the drought makes eveything "Turn to Stone", har har
and causes smoke from distant fires, tee hee.

drought/smoke/fire Jinx!

BOS
Tarney-Spencer Sanford-Townsend Band, Smoke From a Distant Fire.
Iirc, Dave played this a time or two, but def. in the rarity column.
ETA: OK, Sanford-Townsend, Tarney-Spencer, all those hyphenated bands sound alike anyway. ;)

errrr, what not-so-distant fire are you inhaling smoke from?

I believe that's the Sanford Townshend Band you're thinking of. (I had to look it up, but I knew that didn't sound right.)

serpentine fire?

Smoke from a Serpentine Fire, natch. Nice, AL.
-
it's a fire twin-spin. BOS Earth, Wind & Serpentine Fire.
-
So wait.. if we're talking mist and smoke, wouldn't that be called "smog"?
brings to mind Ray Davies' Apeman:
"Air pollution keeps fogging up my eyes..." (except he may not be saying "fogging")

a pattern emerges! Could "Disco Inferno" be next?

Tarney Spencer Band did No Time To Lose, which prob came out around '77 , too...

BOS Carly, "Nobody Does It Better Than JT JB"
JT JINX! At the exact same second, no less.
BOS4 Neil, Like A Hurricane. This may be a longish set.
-
here comes a hurricane to end the drought! BOS2 Neil.
Neil's getting blown. Away. Someone alert Dan Dierdorf!
-
Was thinking NDIB was a bustout, but no--it appeared in *two* different James Bond sets. (I didn't recall we'd had two of them but the DB says otherwise.)
But the Neil, now *that's* a bustout. Which I would *not* have guessed.
-

Is that something he says a lot? Never noticed. I did notice that he's a great big doofus and crappy commentator.

Uber-BOS for the day, Mink DeVille, Cadillac Walk.

Hurricane mentions fog, too: "on our foggy trip"
Mink is channeling ZZTop... another BOS

BOS for Heart kickin' it!

BOS4 Heart when they were good, kickin' it OWT!

I think when Grace Slick modernized her voice for arena-rock crowds, she used Ann Wilson as her template.
-

Was having that same thought. Or maybe the other way around. Almost expected to hear "how-how-how-how" somewhere in there.
-

which is funny, considering Ann's template was Robert Plant.
uh-oh, Skynyrd. I got that right -- but I wish I was wrong

Sounds right to me. Clapton also good!~ ;)
-
Great guitars in this set, including Heart and Lynyrd!
"When my time's up, I'm on my own I'll hold my own, you won't find me in an old folks' home.. "
he got that right, for sure. :(
-
SADARAR sounds very good indeed
-
Predicted my WOS? You got that right.
-
Another BOS for Ian Dury. Haven't heard this in a long time.
-

"SADARAR" -- what's that?
ETA: Oh, I see. My stream is slow...
WOS to Gabe Kraplan doing a baby imitation.. BOS to Abe Vigoda!

Dialing my tailor, he's called Simon...
One more BOS for Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll.
Funny how this phrase became part of the popular lexicon, even though this wasn't *that* big of a hit.

He coined the phrase? I always assumed it went further back. VHM either way!

It must be so.
Even Wikipedia can't agree. From a passage in Dury's bio:
(Although it is sometimes claimed that Dury coined the phrase, there is evidence that it was already in common use and a virtually identical wording was used by Australian band Daddy Cool for the title of their second album Sex, Dope & Rock'n'Roll: Teenage Heaven, released in 1972[6]).
So maybe, maybe not.

Fitting for the "I didn't know that" thread, but I'll put it here anyway:
Reading the rest of Dury's wikipedia bio, I learned that Andrew Lloyd Webber approached him to write the libretto for Cats, and was turned down flat. He's quoted as saying "I can't stand his music."[11] "... I said no straight off. I hate Andrew Lloyd Webber. He's a wanker, isn't he? ... [E]very time I hear 'Don't Cry for Me Argentina' I feel sick, it's so bad. He got Richard Stilgoe to do the lyrics in the end, who's not as good as me. He made millions out of it. He's crap, but he did ask the top man first!"[12]
Worth a read, lots of interesting factoids:

HA! Who knows, if he had said "yes" to the wanker, maybe Cats wouldn't have sold so much. Then again, he prob could have bought a LOT more Sex and Drugs w the royalties.
