5 Aug 2014: it's... 1970
« on: August 04, 2014, 06:36:12 PM »
woo hoo!

We have a "Rubber Duckie" request, which I was happy to +1. Given how often AL plays Sesame Street clips, playing "Duckie" shouldn't be much of a stretch.

Meanwhile, people are pissing me off with songs not from 1970, including Janis' "Bobby McGee" -- even if it was '71, why folks request songs so overexposed is beyond me.

Ah, 1970... another opportunity to be disappointed by 10@10.  Of late I've been largely
numbed into silence by the general mediocrity of the shows.  Yes, there have been bright
spots here and there, although far too few.

There's a joke about how convicts/prisoners of war/any group of men otherwise confined
have been together so long that they tell jokes by number only.  I feel that way regarding
our gripes about 10@10.   So in order to save myself a lot of typing...

I don't disagree, tho' I've gotten several requests in the last month so I feel like maybe the new PD isn't as anal as DC was about going off the beaten path . But clearly AL is still required to play several big hits per set.

I will probably miss all or part of this set, so i'll catch up on the replay, probably.

TOTHK - Twister commercial ---> Jackson 5 "The Love You Save"

ETA: I have to go, so I won't be able to post for the rest of this set.  Hopefully someone else can do this!

Earth Day/Walter Cronkite clip > Joni, Big Yellow Taxi.

Why do I have the feeling we've heard that one before?

Yeah, at this rate we'll be done by 10:35 easy. 

Neil gets my BOS vote so far. No sign of Ernie or his duckie yet.
