I think this is 1986.  Wang Chung tonight.

Our last '86-er was better than average:

Quote
Level 42 - Something About You
Bryan Adams - It's Only Love
Stevie Nicks - I Can't Wait
Call - I Still Believe
OMD - If You Leave
XTC - Summer's Cauldron (B-O-S!!!)
REM - Fall on Me
Bangles - Walk Like an Egyptian
Icehouse - No Promises
Joe Jackson - Right & Wrong
BONUS TRACK: Talking Heads - Love For Sale


So here's hoping for similar inspiration on Dave's part.

This just makes me remember their appearance last year on Hit Me Baby.  Any idea if that's coming back this year?  Seemed like a perfect summer show.

Clapton? Dave really loves his lameass late-'80s Slowhand, doesn't he?

Madonna!  Give Dave props for this one.

I made up my mind I'm gonna keep this as BOS #2.

I'd love a brief bit of Danny Aiello's "answer", "Papa DO Preach", but that's probably asking too much.

You betcha.  The following Madonna tunes appear once each in the Db: "Erotica", "Material Girl", "Santa Baby" & "Vogue".  The only tune to appear more than once?  "American Pie" has been a repeat HFH.

Isn't that extraordinary? I mean (a) she's arguably the biggest artist of the '80s, with a huge catalog of hits, and (b) Dave's a big 'mo. The 2 combined would seem to make her ideal 10@10 Katrina material.
