We're promised Genesis...

and indeed we get -- 2 days in a row -- "Home By The Sea". I hear Phil has about a dozen of those.

I wanna WOS2 Sammy Hagar on principle, but (unless I'm mistaken) "Your Love is Driving Me Crazy" is an across-the-board bustout.

WOS2 Crapton, a long way from Rock'n'Roll, despite the song title ("RnR Heart").

WOS Journey, "Faithfully".

KFOG just played the new Journey track, after some school teacher lady called in to request it, and Dave, Peter & Renee all professed to love it.

I thought it sounded exactly like old worn-out, over-produced Journey, but hey, that's just me.  The current lead singer sounds like he was killing himself to pull off a Steve Perry imitation.  The word "way" was repeated throughout, and it was always "way-AY-ay-AY-ay" ad nauseum.

The only way Journey has a snowball's chance of radio airplay today is to sound exactly like old worn-out Journey.  They made their deal with the devil.

BOS4 Alexis & Krystle on Dynasty -- CAT FIGHT!!!

Guilty Pleasure of Set.  "What are you DOING, you COW?"  I'd bet $100 that Desperate Housewives eventually goes out with that kind of bang.  (If they haven't already - I've never seen the show.)

DH is overrated wannabe-camp. (So of course gay men from coast-to-coast just love it.  Have we no shame?)  I watched the very first ep and none since.
