Set is new to me.  VHM to Human League because I kept playing "Fascination" at amusement-park arcades all through the '80s.  VHM to the Smiths as well.

But BOS to Fagen's "New Frontier."  Wing-ding in the bomb shelter, anyone?

i don't care if this does sound like some kid's YouTube "Best of the 80s Playlist" with a lot of obvious stuff.  It's good.  That much ist klar!

during the Call song, I SWEAR I heard a bit of the percussion of "Mr Roboto" playing in my left ear.  I'm pretty sure "Kilroy was there" -- a little early.

I realize this set was a replay, with its share of Katrinas and at least one crappy song, but damn if it wasn't a foglifter for me.

Great set!  Sorry I missed it.  The Bow Wow Wow tune is one of my faves.  Negative points for Mr. Roboto, though.

A Bow Wow Wow song that wasn't "I Want Candy," a Ministry song that wasn't "Everyday is Halloween," a The Call song that wasn't "Let the Day Begin," "Everywhere I Go," or "I Still Believe (Great Design)," and a Stray Cats song that wasn't "Stray Cat Strut" or "Rock This Town."  Considering this, "Mr. Roboto" can slide.

A Call song that wasn't "Let the Day Begin," "Everywhere I Go," or "I Still Believe (Great Design),"

actually, "Walls Came Down" is as much a Call-trina as the others. 6 of one...

Oh, that's too bad.  I'm still letting it slide, though. ;)
