another GOOD 1981 set, featuring (so far) 2 great songs that Dave's never played: "Antmusic" and Gary US Bonds' "This Little Girl".
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

and another new one (to me): Nick Mason.  Ginger and Rob destroyed Dave this week, 1981-wise.

Adam & The Ants - Antmusic
Joe Walsh - A Life Of Illusion
Pretenders - I Go to Sleep
Who - You Better You Bet
Psychedelic Furs - Into You Like a Train
Steve Winwood - While You See A Chance
Go-Go's - Our Lips Are Sealed
Gary U.S. Bonds - This Little Girl is Mine
Cars - Shake It Up
Nick Mason - Can't Get My Motor to Start
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Kudos! No one ever plays Antmusic, and it's a quintessential TotHC!  And that Furs tune is new to me as well as the Nick Mason.

Damn fine set, BOS to Winwood and HM to Bonds.  As for the Cars -- I was never quite sure if the "quirky jerk" was Ocasek's suggested dance move, or Ocasek himself.
