16 May 2014: it's... 1981
« on: May 15, 2014, 03:31:16 PM »
Could this be our first week without a theme set in over a month? A Soul Patrol would be nice. But an early-'80s set would seem likely.

ETA: and I was right: it's '81.

But we got two last week, so it averages out. ;)

Just scanned thru the requests and was amused to see some random (non-GS) foghead harshing on another for requesting Joan Jett, saying he heard it all the time on other stations. But what did he ask for? Tom Petty, The Waiting.

Ahem, sir, you seem to be sporting as dark a paintjob as Ms. Kettle.

true. But I berated one of our own for requesting "Magnificent 7", one of the most-played '81 tracks and pretty much the ONLY tune from Sandinista! we ever get. I'd lurve to hear "Washington Bullets".

If we have to kick off with something from Tattoo You, this would be my first choice. BOS1 for me too.

Eliminating the ninnies and the twits.  (Sodden thought: will Twitter someday adopt this as a theme song?) VHM.
