Early BOS to Robert Palmer.  This song always makes me think of a Schwab employee who sent me a note about it when it played on Dave's Pride set in '97.  Gil was a sweetheart who hung around with assholes.  Would be neat to find out what became of him.

WOS to "Hold the Line": musically it's fine, but the singer takes it way over the top, Pablo Cruise-style.

I had a T-shirt made with that very quote, and wore it to at least one Bruce show.

BOS votes for the first two songs; number three, not so much. However, the set has a real upbeat tone today, so I have high hopes.
Let's get right to it.

Not a coincidence - the first half of the Morning Show was dedicated to songs that cheer you up, or, as Dave called them, "Mood Elevators". He even played the Partridge Family theme in its entirety.

In for the set, mobile momentarily. BOS Time Passages. This just works for me.

BOS "Badlands"

I've been to one Bruce show (Aug 03 at Pac Bell Park) and he played this -- not a surprise, but what surprised me was how emotional it was for me to hear it played and then sing along.  Never considered myself a huge Bruce fan, but man that was fun and, of course, the whole thing a great show.
