12 June 2007--it's 1990

Yikes, run for the hills!

PiL leads off, so maybe Dave's digging deep again--he pulled off a couple of surprisingly good sets in recent weeks for years that had traditionally been not so much.

Ah, but here's the Smithereens, just when everything was starting to sound the same, "A Katrina Like You".

But anyway... how does a song that got little-to-no airplay in '90 become a Katrina 17 years later?

Here here.  That ending was reeeeally funny.  The show itself was pretty good, mainly thanks to Newhart himself and the handyman...what's his name?  Bill Paxton?  (Or is that the guy on Big Love?)

Yep, downward we go. Smithereens were OK, but Blues Traveller--nope.

You're thinking of Tom Poston. He just died a few weeks ago. And he was married to Suzanne Pleshette, who was in the clip we just heard.

Tom Poston, that is.  I see he died 13 days ago.  A funny guy.
ETA: Oh yes, Jim.  Not 13 days, one month and 13 days.  I have trouble with my months, sometimes.

Anyone think the acoustic guitar break in the middle of Last Plane Out could have been cribbed from a Jethro Tull tune? (I'm not quite putting my finger on which one, but I bet one of you guys can.)
