WOS Big Bore Todd and the Snoozesters.

Eight songs in and no BOS candidate; that never happens, even in the most LN-y sets.

Some days are more LN-y than others.

Will AL surprise us all with "I Don't Wanna Fight" as the closer?

I'd like to think we have a 50-50 chance -- either she will or she won't.
Let's get right to it.

Today was NOT the greatest I have ever known.  Yet another LN.

U2 to save us, at least for me.

I'll state that this remains my favorite album from them.

It seems she felt playing anything but mellow and/or downbeat songs would be disrespectful to the dead.

This was the most snoozeworthy set in a while.

And I think that unless it's 9/11 or something like that, this trend needs to stop.

DM had it right: we don't do "death" on 10@10 (although he broke that rule a couple of times, most memorably for Robin Gibb and George Harrison).

It's fine to play a few clips or a song in tribute to the departed, but to give the whole set a maudlin, funereal tone is not good, sez I.

I'm a little slow this morning: when people on FB were voting Robin BOS, for a second I thought they were talking about Robin S. or Robyn. "Did I miss Show Me Love?"
