1 March 2016: it's... 1987
« on: March 01, 2016, 08:22:18 AM »
Given the number of '60s & '70s tunes in yesterday's Movie set, I'm guessing we're headed to the '90s today.

well, close: '87, which I had predicted last week. It's actually been quite a while since we got a new set from this year.

Bowie "Never Let Me Down" to start.

Peter Falk in that Wim Wenders flick about angels --> "In God's Country" U2 with a well-worn track from Joshua Tree.

That was a weird clip. Columbo in heaven?

If this isn't a bustout, it certainly hasn't been played very much. BOSFRA.

On the other hand, In God's Country is a FF on the playlist, not sure what its 10@10 scorecard looks like.

Turns out it's been played in three different '87 sets, two of which have also turned up as encores. So maybe less of a rarity than I would have guessed.

Stevie and Lindsey really need to get a room on that one.

I agree, a really good movie.  IIRC, Peter Falk plays himself in the film.

This was especially fun to listen to when you're 16.

Kinda steamy with all that huffing and puffing, but it's also one of the better Big Mac tunes post-Tusk, IMO. BOS here.
