Missed the opener, but now it's time for Cool Change.  Nice.

Sorry about the thread dupe, Mike.

Meantime, WOS to "Mother," which I don't see much point in.

Novelty points: I haven't heard "Dirty White Boy" in a few years.

speaking of no point: "Dirty White Boy".  BTW, the opener was the Cars, tho' I'm already blanking on which song it was.

You can call me Ray.  Or you can call me Ray-Ray.  And if you do, you should follow that clip up with Dylan's "Gotta Serve Somebody," which I recently learned is where he got the idea for his name-game stanza there.

Mr Petty warms up for the Super Bowl -- I'm betting we hear this one. "Even the Losers (Get Lucky Sometimes)". I'm looking at you, Eli.

Speaking of Oscar noms: here's Al Pacino.

BOS ARS's "Spooky" remake, but pickings have been kinda slim this morning in what is usually an great year.

BOS2 THeads, "Life During Wartime". Suddenly I'm in the car with my friend George and we're both hearing this song for the very first time. And when we hear the line about "This ain't no Mudd Club/Or CBGB's" we laugh out loud.
