(Were many of these songs requested? Seems more like she's doing it herself on the fly.)

AL seems to have had this setlist in mind since she was at the Replacements show last night.  Seems like any requests made have been ignored.

yeah this is something of a greatest '89 hits set for her -- only thing missing is "Everything is Broken". Or the Wilburys.

Shhhhh! Don't say that so loud!
Let's get right to it.

OMFG! My longtime "Walk the Dinosaur" request!! uber-BOS, obviously.

This isn't its first appearance, is it? I could swear it's popped up at least once before this.

it is -- despite what a certain 'snipe insists (he claims Dave played it "many times" but I've been requesting it from Dave and AL forever)

Just did a quick search n scan of the this board, and you are indeed correct. I thought it might have turned up once, but that seems to have  been some of the Capn's alternative lists. Glad it finally made its legit debut on 10@10.

Had to look, and it confirmed my guess as to who it was. Consider the source.

I'm on a roll, I tells ya!  Seems the newfound desire for a token "HAAAY!" song in most sets has been working in my favor.

not only that, I used to email Dave suggesting it --"guaranteed BOS contender" I'd say to him. But to no avail.

If I had to guess I'd say you've been suggesting it for the better part of the last decade at the very least. So it's about bloody time...

eeek: uber-uber LN Mr. Aimee Mann.

Seriously, this is "No Myth"s 15th or 16th appearance -- just from a search of this board; that's not counting plays in the shrayabase that predate this forum.

What song holds the record for most original spins (for which we can keep track of, anyway)?

without looking, I'll guess "Good Thing" by FYC.

Dunno.  While it's trivial to discern the number of spins for any particular song, discovering
the one with the most theoretically requires counting the number of appearances for every
song.  I recently started keeping a list of the Twenty Plus club, and while I add songs that
come to my attention, I have not sought them out.   Anyone who thinks they have a
potential candidate can PM me and I'll check it out.


Terence Trent D'Arby - Wishing Well [26]
Fleetwood Mac - Hold Me [25]
Steam - Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye [24]
Fine Young Cannibals - Good Thing [24]  (hat tip to RGMike)
Raspberries - Go All the Way [23]
Sly & The Family Stone - Hot Fun In The Summertime  [23]
Michael Penn - No Myth [22]
Hugh Masekela - Grazin' in the Grass [20]
