and so are ELO. I think I BOS'd this when Bob played it last week; I'm not quite as generous-feeling today. I want a bustout, dammit!

BOS Mr Walsh with Indian Summer (on this beauty of a spring day) and to Mr Rafferty with that oh-so-1978 ramble down Baker Street.
<--oh yeah, avatar is Springsteen & his 60 Corvette in Freehold NJ 1978.

I'm hoping too, but '78 is rife with frequent fliers: Springsteen, Jay Ferguson, and even this Joe Walsh tune. Would love to hear Cheap Trick (lots of deep cuts on Heaven Tonight) and Billy Joel was in his heyday as well.

VHM to Baker Street, still waitin' for that nugget.

winding our way down Katrina Street... 

I bow to no one in my admiration for messrs Rafferty and Ravenscroft, esqs. -- but I hope Dave comes off autopilot before song #10.

TANC!!!  Saturday night, I was shopping in SoHo and stopped in a picture gallery called Morrison Hotel (people like Henry Diltz who specialize in rock photography).  This very picture was hanging lifesize on the back wall.

Dave plays it a lot and I always forget who/what it is.  "Phasers on Stun"?

I love that dead-pope montage. It never gets old for me.

BOS Olivia Newton-John Travolta!

ROTFL!  You're on a roll today, Gaz. Will you be here all week? Should I try the veal?

FM, Phazers on Stun. Dave pulls it out about once or twice a year.

Man, does Travolta's voice sound like it's dripping with compression or is it just me?
