Title: 3 February 2010: It's...1986
Post by: urth on February 03, 2010, 10:01:12 AM
THeads Love For Sale, from True Stories.

Off to a good start.

As always, hoping AL does more with this year than Dave generally did.

Prince definitely says "1986" to me. Not a bustout (nor was the THeads), but good selections both.

Evander Holyfield might have something to say about that.

10@10's what you make it, AL -- and a bustout or 2 would really make this set. Some pop would go down nicely -- Jermaine Stewart, perhaps?

Well, now we're venturing into serious Katrina territory--this one at one point had a K rating of nearly 30%.

ETA: Referring to the Talk Talk song, although WCTBL (Van Hagar) is a pretty big K, too.

VHM Alex P. Keaton.  This is the longest TV clip AL's played in a while -- her snippets are usually pretty short.

WOS Van Hagar.

I presume you mean Talk Talk -- might want to be a little more specific.  Still a great song.  And a far sight better than the crappy Van Hagar joint "Why Can't This Be Love".  I hate that line: "only time will tell if we stand the test of time."  Terrible.

Yes, I was referring about Life Is What You Make It. Mea culpa.

And no, Sammy is no Hemingway when it comes to turning a phrase.

uber-BOS4 Dramarama! A song I discovered on KROQ when on vacay in LA -- It was ignored by NY alt-rock radio for some reason.

There's your bustout, along with Iggy's Cry For Love, which is kinda tame compared to what we've come to expect from him.

ETA: The Dramarama was nearly an artist bustout, were it not for one appearance of Earth Day in a set for, umm, Earth Day. Go figure.

That Morrissey -- he's such a kidder!

I'll give this a BOS.  I don't like most Smiths -- too whiny for my taste -- but this song does rock.

AL does love her some Smiths. BOS4 Bigmouth Strikes Again. Not a bustout, but just one appearance in the Dave era.

BOS7 Mr Palmer, turning us on, tho' the Cherelle original would've been nice.

VHM R. Palmer, unintentionally getting us worked up.

Hasn't someone else in the 10@10 oeuvre played this recently?
