Keep it dark.





In the setlist post that day it was 'Keep it Dark'.  Now that I know the name of the person who insists on treating the word "it" as a preposition (as well as "if" and "is") it actually makes it easier to gripe about it.

Coultergeist -- she knows what scares you!



speaking of scary: Missing Persons for the gazillionth time.

And the set does not get better from here, save for tune # 10.

Oh come on now, "It's a Mistake" is my BOS. 

"They've gone and grabbed Old Ronnie."

Better than a couple of their other songs, but still far from a fave. Sorry, the only songs I could BOS in this set are the first and the last. And maybe Annie Get Your Gun.
Let's get right to it.

ah, the Wild Women of Chastity Gulch... I remember them well.  Chastity Gulch is right near Cher Canyon.

cold comfort; it's still pretty generically Cars-y.

life is much easier when you don't like any Genesis!  I don't have to worry if it's the when they were good era!

You probably feel the same about Cars & MAW, but actually those were three rarely- or seldom-played cuts.

it's so sad when even the rarities are unmemorable (well, the Genesis & Cars, anyway). BOS "Flaming Desire"

i've a soft spot for the Cars - esp the first two albums. I wore out the grooves on those two.  And I've always thought Elliot Easton was a fantastic guitar man!

I like the Cars, and feel kind of indifferent about Men At Work.  I just never liked Genesis much, even in the halcyon era of The Lamb Lies Down, which I always found pretentious beyond all reasonableness.  Yeah, I've heard it's a classic.

Hey Tinka, what does CPL593H mean?

It's from Roxy Music's "Re-make / Re-model"
--------------------------------------
I tried but I could not find a way
Looking back all I did was look away
Next time is the best time we all know
But if there is no next time where to go?
Shes the sweetest queen Ive ever seen (cpl593h)
See here she comes see what I mean? (cpl593h)
I could talk talk talk talk talk myself to death
But I believe I would only waste my breath
Ooh show me


watch it with Eno!:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GP2YC_YMlw0

Wow, that was amazing. I saw Roxy about 10 years later, but they sure didn't look like that. London in the early 70s must have been a really interesting place.
