Yikes, here's Phil C., selling more Michelob.  Followed by Mr Winwood with another Semen Overspill.

There are 'trinas within... There are 'trinas without...

This is like a faded Xerox of a Morey '86 set. *shudder*

OMG, when Huey Lewis' "Hip To Be Square" is the most exciting song in the set -- you KNOW you're in trouble.

Just like-a Ronnie sang: Eddie and the luscious Ms. Spector ride in to save what's left of this set. Take Me Home, indeed -- take me anywhere but '86! BOS2

Proxy of mshray: Timbuk 3 "Future's so Bright", but really, this was one of the more painful '80s sets in memory.

Talk about your forgotten No. 1s!  Has anyone played this in the past 20 years?

Forgotten for good reason, I'd say. But no, outside of 10@10s, not a peep.

I haven't been in early enough to catch one of Bob's sets in quite a while.  And this set certainly won't inspire me to get up early tomorrow....

In fairness, Bob's been averaging one '80s set a week lately, nothing later than '86 -- better than Dave, who's forced to do '90s too.  And sometimes Bob does OK. But not today.

There was a weather report after the set -- 6 degrees, wind chill of -9 was all I caught.  In that case, I'm willing to cut anybody some slack.  I'd have stayed home in bed.
