Where will Renee's roulette wheel take us today?
I won't be around for today's episode, so take copious notes (and what gets BOS)!

Ha - I won't be around either -- catching a 10:30 showing of Wolf of Wall St. Have fun kids.

tuned in to hear Southside Johnny "Havin' a Party."
-
Dire Straits "Once Upon a Time in the West." Quintessential Strat tone.
-
"(Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman"
The Kinks
looking at the song history (which isn't always accurate)
Fins by Jimmy Buffett preceded Southside Johnny
-
The Knack "My Sharona"
-
Cars "It's All I Can Do"
[insert some "It's all I can do to keep from blorfing" proxy comment by Mike]
-
Dave Edmunds "Crawling from the Wreckage"
-
when TMI stood for Three Mile Island instead of...
Pink Floyd "Run Like Hell"
-
news clip about Three Mile Island area evacuations into Pink Floyd's Run Like Hell
-
The Knack "My Sharona"
[insert snarky LN comment here]
-
The Clash fight a losing battle with the law...
-
The Clash "I Fought the Law"
When the Dead used to do this, fans posted it as "I Fought the Slaw" in set lists.
-
Boomtown Rats "I Don't Like Mondays," which is depressingly still current.
-

4. (Wish I could fly like) Superman - The Kinks
(TV - Diff'rent Strokes)
5. My Sharona - The Knack

The Boomtown Rats don't like today, and I don't think too much of it either. I missed Dire Straits,
and in general this set never strayed from well-trod ground. 1979 is one of those years that has
good potential to produce great set, but for my taste often fails to do so. Today's high LNQ effort
fell far short.

"(Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman"
The Kinks
One of the many over-played, substandard, late-period Kinks' "hits." Sigh...
-

Funny, my pals and I used to refer to Friend of the Devil as "Friend of the Deli." "I'll have a plate o' pastrami and the corned beef's fine; a friend of the deli is a friend of mine..."

Tie for BOS:
9. I Fought The Law - the Clash
10.I Don't Like Mondays - Boomtown Rats
Seems to be more grist for the theory that late-set songs are more likely to get BOS nods.
RR is taking requests for "end of the year" songs and "good-bye 2013" messages for tomorrow's
set.

8. Run Like Hell - Pink Floyd
9. I Fought The Law - the Clash
10. I Don't Like Mondays - Boomtown Rats
The Southside tune was the only thing approaching a rarity, although I enjoyed nos. 3, 7 and 9, too. But for the most part, this was a typical Monday set in more ways than one.

2. Havin' a party - Southside Johnny and the Asbury Dukes
Uh, that's Jukes, not Dukes...

indeed - not sorry I missed. "Sharona" is THE cliché 1979 track.

While I can blame the GS or KFOG intern, I'm sorry. I have edited the original list to also reflect "song title - artist" format. I'm not really sure which order is right.

Thanks Geoff and company for taking notes! ;)

Not sure that there's a preferred order (artist-song title vs. song title-artist) but at least they should be consistent within one setlist. That was bugging the hell out of me re: the GS list yesterday.

I tend to put the song first, but yeah, consistency is what matters most. To this day I'm still not 100% certain if it's "One Love" by White Dove or "White Dove" by One Love.

I was just noting a correction for the "official record," not sourcing the error.
I don't think there's necessarily a "right" order, however for eleven years the set lists on the KFOG
web site have been listed in the "artist - song title" format. This convention inexplicably reversed
in June 2013 and has been since followed by others. It's just one more thing to edit before I add
set lists to my archives. I've chosen to maintain format consistancy and correct errors over
preserving a record of what was posted on the 10@10 page.
