HOLY SHIT!!!!

Timbuk3 "Hairstyles and Attitudes".

Listen to the lyrics carefully, they're hysterical, especially the last verse.

Is this Timbuk 3 doin' Hairstyles and Attitudes? Bustout I believe.

Love the line about the Three Stooges! This gets a BOS just on general principles.

This really is the find of the week for me -- I've never heard this, it certainly got zero airplay in NY.

I know I'm on record in years past of wishing for this.  I had the album and always loved this track, but never heard it on the air until today.  What a treat!

Hairstyles and attitudes -- are they connected?
Are the styles we embrace a matter of taste, or of values rejected?
Hairstyles and attitudes -- how do they relate?
How well do we use our freedom to choose the illusions we create?

Blow dried, bouffant, basic training
Cops in drag dressed up like whores
Cowboys in pony tails, bankers in bangs,
Presidents in pompous pompadours
Mommas in mohawks, daddies in dreadlocks,
Heavy metal goldilocks trying to look tough
The wet look, the dry look, the FBI look
But can you judge a crook by his coverup?

Hairstyles and attitudes -- are they connected?
Are the styles we embrace a matter of taste, or of values rejected?
Hairstyles and attitudes -- how do they relate?
How well do we use the freedom to choose the illusions we create?

Razor cut, laser cut, chop-in-channel
Curled up, slicked back, hanging in the eyes
Parted left, parted right, straight down the middle
Scientists say your hair never lies
They've done lots of research
It may be just hype, but the latest findings cause me to tremble
They categorize us into three basic types
According to which of the three stooges you most closely resemble

Hmmm...impassioned discussion this am on the morning show about how Bush and his cronies had the invasion of Iraq on their agenda long before 9/11, and are they culpable for misleading the country.

Now, we hear Bruce's War and his chilling words: Blind faith in your leaders will get you killed.

Coincidence? Nah.

Wow, another serious BOS candidate--DLR, Ladies Night in Buffalo. This could be one of the best 86 sets in memory.

One of the best '86 sets in some time, despite "Ladies Night in Buffalo", for which I can't share the love, much as I like Mr Roth's solo ouevre.

Can you try to archive this one Urth?  If only for the Timbuk3?
