Title: 18 April 2013: it's... 1991
Post by: RGMike on April 18, 2013, 09:24:59 AM
I'm assuming today is our '90s day.

ETA: RR's clue is Silence of the Lambs, so... '91 it is.

oy: instant TOTHWOS Genesis, "I Can't Dance"

heh, i don't mind this.  Haven't heard it in a long while, but despite the irrefutable idea that Genesis was often a crap-pop machine after 1980, I've never found the strength to write them off 100%.  Of course, i haven't heard it in a long time because maybe it sucks so bad that no one wants to play it.  After all, Phil does sing "I can't dance, I can't sing." blah blah

heh, it's Kate Pierson featuring Mike & Michael from R.E.M.!

Hey, They're Canadian, too!  Let's see, an all-Canadian comatose set might feature Crash Test Dumais, Cowboy Junkies. There have to be others we can include, but I'm already falling asleep.

uber-uber-LN5: Lenny K.  And urth's "proto-AAA" comment is right on the money; most of these songs actually were being played by KFOG back then (unlike a lot of '90s sets that are dominated by songs that KFOG ignored but  Live 105 played to death).

Buck will def. be there, as he's in Robyn's backing band (the Venus 3) with Bill Rieflin and Scott McCaughey. Also, the following night there's a show @ the Hemlock with Buck and the YFF, and some other band called the Chuckleberries.

I found four plays by DM and none by AL.  But are you sure about 2006?  Because not only did I
not see any in that year, even Mmm^4, the only other CTD song played on 10@10, does not
appear in that year.
