Title: 27 Aug 2010: it's... a Local Scene Finale!
Post by: RGMike on August 26, 2010, 03:10:34 PM
AL sez "late '70s thru '90s" which covers a lotta ground. (maybe this will be another 2-parter?)

I decided to be a "Bottum" feeder: seconding sundaygal's request for "We Care a Lot" and adding Imperial Teen's "You're One" (which was on my '96 list).  And I also requested Rancid's "Time Bomb" from '95 (15 years ago? Jeezus H Kee-ryst).

I'm sure somebody on FB will request "Meet Virginia". Or better yet, "Walkin' On The Sun".

Whatever, just as long as "We Built This City" isn't played.

Well, as a famous man (whom Mojo Nixon said must die) once said: "We get the government we deserve".

I'm pretty sure The Humpty Dance has been played before, although it's been awhile. Welcome nonetheless.

Lufaphs is a semi-acronym for Lufa Provincial High School, where I taught in Papua New Guinea many years back. Nothing to do with Bill O'Reilly.

per the shraytabase, no, and I remember complaining that Dave always played "Sex packets" but ignored "HD"

OK, I have no clue on these last 2 tunes.

I'm curious as to why AL does this.... is it to draw in the casual listener, then surprise them in the end? I suppose if she did it the other way around the masses would tune out at about the second song. But that's just a hunch.

BOS to Pearl Harbor and the DKs -- nice 80s sounds there.  Avengers was NTM. 

Agree on the ho-hum factor of Translator, Hugey Lewis, Romeo Void (although I met her once by chance, so HM).   

Speaking of Ho Hum(pty)> Humpty Dance and Never Gonna Get It -- absolute rarities on a station like KFOG.  Nice to hear here, I suppose, but ultimately I'm like whatevs.

I think Jello's made a mistake w the Dan White statue thing the reporter mentioned. Who wanted to see his face around, even in stone?   Of course, Jello stood for way more than just gimmicky stunts, but local MSM grabs onto those things.  oh well... Wasn't it soon after his mayoral candidacy -- or maybe even during? -- that a law was passed requiring candidates use their real names when running?  

I liked the 70s sets better.

Brings back memories of my old shop on Folsom St, when we shared the space with Stars Guitars.  Many of these bands came in either for repairs or just kicking back during rehearsals next door at Studio Instrument Rentals.  Michael Been, Deborah Iyall, the guys from Translator, Mario Cipollina from HL&TN.
