the Drive website says it's 11 degrees in Chicago.  Hope Bob's set is much hotter than that.

ooo! Bob bookends the set with Very Special Xmas tracks: we close with U2's serviceable cover of the great Darlene Love classic "Christmas (Baby Pleaee Come Home)".  BOS2.  Overall, not a bad set considering Bob's spotty record in the '80s -- no Crowded House or Robbie NeVil in sight.

What's there to get?  Furthermore, since when did you even try to 'get' Stipe's lyrics?

He probably did it just so people would wonder "what's he mean by that?"
Let's get right to it.

I always assumed he put Lenny Bruce & Lester Bangs to gether in a sentence somehow & it grew from there.
