a new dental-themed montage!  BOS2!

and BOS3 Chicago, "Harry Truman" -- wasn't it Gaz who recently said he'd never heard this?


Believe so, and I said I wondered why Daved never plays it.

BOS from me, and it looks like a mighty fine first half of the set before I got here.


I'm afraid I don't like it.  Clarinets rarely sound good to me, and this overall just seems too self-consciously old-timey.  THOSE WOI DA DAYYYS ...

Er, well... yes. I do believe that is the point.

And not surprising from a band who got together and emphasized horns because they appreciated '40s Big Band stuff.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Heh.  Emphasis on *self-consciously*.  Didn't sound natural.
