OMGWTF!  In a day with at least one cover in each set, the biggest and most welcome surprise is Eruption's "I Can't Stand Lorraine."

Was that Lorraine out there in the rain?
Bringin back sweet memories........

Definitely one of the worst lines ever, I have to acknowledge.

VHM to ELO's "Turn to Stone."  After hearing their songs in a huge auditorium at the EMP conference, I have a reinvigorated appreciation of them.

well, I guess ELO was inevitable.

Have any of you ever called in with a WOS vote?  I've never dared to do so.  (Hits From Hell sets don't count, of course.)

I'd imagine hearing them on huge speakers in a big room was quite enjoyable -- Mr Lynne having been called, alternately, the new Paul McCartney and the new George Martin back in the day.

Bonus: Nick Lowe, "...Breaking Glass", which we just discussed recently as having never been played by Dave.

Fine guitar work in the set.

I saw Boston about a year ago in Concord. First and only show I've seen at the Pavillion. I remember mentioning their female guitarist. They rocked way back when and still putting on a great show.

This is such a great tune to crank loud.

I'm with ya babe. Dance the beat in the disco heat. Can't remember the last time I listened to the entire replay 2 nites in a row. A better-than-average week so far.

Notice Lily Tomlin censoring herself by saying "I worry that some of you came here only to meet".  Meet?  "...only to get laid" would've nailed it and been a much funnier line.
