Chicago is a "Toddlin'" town, actually.  Y'know that Spielberg is filming "Trial of the Chicago Seven" next", right? With Philip Seymour Hoffman as William Kunstler and (gulp) Willl Smith as Bobby Seale.

"FIE-uh!"  BOS CWOAB.

Now, I *love* "Classical Gas", but it's quite the frequent flier, esp if you count instrumental sets.  Maybe it's taking the slot usually reserved for "Grazin in the Grass". BOS3 in spite if it all.

Ack! Poorly timed phone call from my sis, so I missed everything from the Toddlin town clip until mid-Classical Gas. What'd I miss besides Crazy Arthur?

So I just missed Fire and the VanFudge tune? OK, I can live with that.

God, this is a great tune. Did I mention BOS for La-La Means I Love You? Well, double-super BOS.

another BOS BBs -- oh WTF -- 10-way tie.  Dave's making up for the rest of the week today.

dim-dim-de-lou, dim-dee-i-oh!

and another OMFG, the Troggs -- the orig (and still the best) version of "Love is All Around".  The Wet Wet Wet cover was #1 in the UK for something like 4 MONTHS.
