Trifectas happen so rarely -- too bad it couldn't be 3 '68 sets or 3 '72s.

I got a lion in my pocket and baby he's ready to ROAR!

BOS #1 as I loved this album back in the day.  Danced to it a lot in college.

Prince and Soft Cell -- Human League would make it an '82 dance trifecta for me.  Will it be the looooooong version of "Tainted Love"?

Interesting set, dating from 12/11/2006, for those who like to look ahead.

ETA: "1999" has been TotHK thrice, and none of those sets have been classics until now.

You can't hug your children with nucular arms. Or nuclear ones, for that matter.

Trifectas happen so rarely -- too bad it couldn't be 3 '68 sets or 3 '72s.

There were three possible sets that led off with 1999 in the DB--this is the most recent (12/11/06). But it looks like it's pretty good, save for one song by the band who shall not be named (hint: rhymes with Hens That Shirk).

Hey! The DB said we were supposed to hear the Where Did Our Love Go medley of Tainted Love--where'd it go?

Nope, thankfully.

And I won't spoil what *is* coming, but I can tell you that this set is not only nuclear free but also Human League free.

relatively, it's in the Db 5 times, and it's always either tune #2 or #3.
