Bob's '80s sets tend to be as rote as Dave's.  Sure enough, we start with Tom Petty followed by Donald Fagen.

Though I'm not a fan of it, I'd hardly call "Athena" rote.     :P

Dave (and KFOG as a whole) plays it often enough.  But -- what's this? -- "Up Where We Belong"!  Good lawd, kudos for Bob for daring to play what for many in his target demo is probably a HFH.

I like Bob's customized-for-the-WS references to the ChiSox and As's.

You beat me to that.  I hate the clipped, warbly voice of Jennifer Warnes but I'll give a BOS vote just on principle.  Now, if Dave one-ups Bob by playing "Never Gonna Let You Go" in his next '83 set, then we're on to something!

Another risk-taking maneuver from Bob with another potential HFH, "Eye of the Tiger."

Weird Al.  From the In 3-D album, iirc.

and followed by Asia, no less.  A HFH twofer, as far as I'm concerned.
