Bob in the mid-'80s: *shudder*

But I'm "Tuff Enuf" to stand it. I hope.

Crapton knows how to "Use It"... and how to get on the soundtrack of a Scorsese flick.

Mr Hornsby listens to the Mandolin Rain. VHM -- it really was a fresh sound at the time (well, for rock radio listeners who'd never heard of George Winston).

Live Petty is not exactly on my list of memorable musical moments from '86.

BOS to T3 and their crazy teacher who wears dark glasses.  Not surprisingly, I think of "Head of the Class" whenever I hear this.

PS: At the time, I thought $50K a year WOULD buy a lot of beer.

You deserve to have Ronnie scratch your eyes out for that. A great single.

the actual line (per Top40 db):

"I feel hungry... it's a hunger that tries to keep a man awake at night"
