LOL!  Now I get the inflection Dave used when he mentioned we'd be hearing a 'paid' political announcement.

Jerry Springer sure had balls, didn't he?

Of course no coincidence coming right after Elliott SPitzer's debacle.

Club mix of Casbah!!

I'm tempted to BOS this just because I haven't heard it ad infinitum

I'd like to recommend again that Clash live clips compilation that PBS is showing this month -- great stuff.

and I'd like to WOS again this Asia abomination.

Woo Hoo, more late-breaking prog rock - Asia - pretentious though it may be...

And Toto too!  Yikes. I'm all for cheese, but when it rises like Olympus above the other cheeze...

ETA: for years I mondegreened that line as "rises like an Empress".

This set is turning out to be the evil '82--only the Crenshaw and Clash tunes are remotely BOS-worthy.

any ex-Yes members in a band qualifiy them for your undying love, does it?

 ;) ;) ;)

I'm going out on a limb to give "Africa" a BOS.  If some unknown group had composed this & it was just a 1HW, they'd have gotten a lot more love than Toto ever did.

can't BOS it, but I won't disagree with your point. There's certainly an "oh they're just slick, rich LA session hacks" attitude towards them. Of course, that's 'cause they *are* rich slick LA session hacks... ;)

VHM that sexy voice again, but I'd do anything for a bustout or 3

Belief is a beauty thing.

not quite a bustout, but it's been about 2 yrs since we heard it.  BOS.

a bustout would be a *real* miracle.  Peter deserves better on his B-day. Yeah, that's my story and I'm stickin' with it!

I remember dancing to this for what seemed like hours at the Echo Beach dance club down on Harrison. Not sure I could even find it now.
