...that's what the promo said, verbatim. ["Get ready for 1987"]

Yikes, '91 and '87 back-to-back.  If we get 3 bustouts in '87 I'll eat my hat.

Instant TOTHK BOS, PSBs!  Maybe Dave'll surprise us today.

"It's a sin"

the inevitable Crowded House.

BOS Robbie

[RGMike]

"wait... did you hear that?"

the inevitable Crowded House.

Well that's out of the way.  If Dave can get through the rest of the set without "C'est La Vie" & "Hourglass" we might be okay.

I love U2, I love "Bullet The Blue Sky", and I remember how completely The Joshua Tree ruled 1987, but still...

...out of 43 sets from 1987, U2 appears in 27 of them.

ETA: I bet Dave plays "Sign O' The Times".

[RGMike]

What was once a welcome bustout is rapidly becoming an '87 cliche: "Sign o'the Times". But VHM for continued relevance.

Ding Ding Ding!  see my comment above.

It's now 5 for the last 6, including twice in Dupe classics.  But it also seems we haven't been to 1987 for like 4 months(!)

On the bus today
I met the Queen of L.A.
At least she said she was
and who am I to say?

that's astounding -- and the last time it was a "classic" on President's Day.

and now, George Winston Bruce Hornsby.
