The original song "Shuffle off to Buffallo", from the early part of the 20th century, was referring to the fact that Niagara Falls was a popular honeymoon spot (people would go to Niagara and never see the falls, nudge-nudge wink-wink).  So Fogerty is referencing an old song.

Philomath (Filomath? Filofax?) is where I'll go.  Beats shuffling off to Buffalo, I guess.

"When the world is a monster, 'bout to swallow you whole..."

Anyone besides me been feeling like that more than usual lately?  Heat waves and Stage 2 alerts on top of everything else...

BOS #2 REM.  

I think I'll only give BOS votes to bands with 3 letter names today.

Oh, I'd never heard of it -- thanks!

Meanwhile, BOS1 (I'm being optimistic) to "Can't Get There From Here," nicking a lick from the Pretenders perhaps but so finely.

This PT track has the same kind of production that Phil Collins gave Eric Clapton that year.  I wonder if we'll get "Forever Man" in this set.

Well that lasted about 40 seconds.  Big fat BOS to Pete, "Second Hand Love".  I really think White City holds up well, but none of our 10@10 friends checks in with it very often.

Someone's gonna call it a Katrina, but BOS to TFF; I can never get tired of "Everybody Wants to Rule the World."  So evocative for me of that period, that state of mind, that aesthetic.

I was just about to refresh the KBCO "just played" list when I began to  notice the songs that preceeded the set.  This strikes me as a pretty good half hour or so of music for regular commercial programming:

She Will Be Loved - Maroon 5
How We Operate - Gomez
Hotel California - Eagles
Interstate Love Song - Stone Temple Pilots
Stir It Up - Bob Marley
Paralyzed  - Rock Kills Kid
Veronica - Elvis Costello
Into the Mystic - Van Morrison
