Title: 13 Oct 2011... it's 2002
Post by: Big Fingers McGee on October 12, 2011, 09:14:28 PM: I'm tempted to minus one Jack Johnson just on principle.
Title: 13 Oct 2011... it's 2002
Post by: RGMike on October 12, 2011, 09:15:45 PM: our 2nd visit to 2002 -- I was expecting a 1st 2004 set so maybe DC has decided that 2003 is a far back as we need to go... for now.

AL's first '02 visit in August wasn't that bad -- just sorta snoozy...

my initial reaction was "oh no, it's reggae that's not Jamaican or English!" But it was a decent song, I admit.
I wouldn't give it a WOS.

I might give this next one a WOS, though.

I loved the first album. after that...meh. And Stefani's solo stuff has done her no favors IMHO.

I've been hearing this a lot during regular business hours at KFOG. Between this and Southside...how edgy of them! ::)

I wouldn't mind hearing Mr Brightside in the regular rotation, if they're looking for alt-lite hits.

Title: Re: 13 Oct 2011... it's 2002
Post by: Tinka Cat on October 13, 2011, 10:29:06 AM: I also might give Bonnie Raitt a "Ho_Hum of Set," but I saw her at HSBG, hanging out back stage and she seemed pretty nice.

She was getting some coffee, and I didn't recognize her up close, we were both sort of jostling for prime coffee position (!), but some guy I was chatting with recognized her and asked her to take a picture with him. He then turned to me and asked me if I wouldn't mind holding the camera. I said "If she's cool with it."

Of course she was nice about it, but I thought the guy was out of bounds asking in the first place. not appropriate.

She didn't perform, but she watched all of Dr. John's set as well as The Blind Boys of Alabama. My god! The Blind Boys were fantastic! And Dr. John is a legend. Good times.

holy shit, more white boy reggae. WTFWOS.

Pretty lightweight song, but I had to play it in a band for a biotech xmas party, and it was kinda fun. My thumb got a workout!

Well played, sir.

Though I have to admit that I really liked them initially. I AM the Rain King. (Also, I am a sucker for literary references, intended or not -- Henderson the Rain King is one of my favorite Bellow novels). That being said, I didn't hear most of the set and don't know which Crows tune was played.
Title: Re: 13 Oct 2011... it's 2002
Post by: radical347 on October 13, 2011, 12:51:52 PM: A bit snoozy...but could have been worse.

She did not have to play "American Girls." If she had to play the CC, she should have played the good single from that album: "Miami."

Wrong No Doubt song. Both snoozy and too severe of a Hot-AC-recurrent. But at least it wasn't "Hey Baby."

The other song she WAS going to play was the equally snoozy "We're Going to Be Friends" by The White Stripes.

BOS Eminem, HM Starsailor.

Wow, she really only played nine? Given the way this set was playing out, I'd say that's an act of mercy.

I seem to recall Dave doing that once or twice, but this might be the first time AL's done it.
