Get out the way, let the gentleman do his thing!  OMGWTFLOLOS to Bruce Willis, respecting himself if not the song.

I get the first 9 initials. but what does the final OS stand for?

"of set"
I was thinking "Oh S***"

LOL!

My fave remains ROTFLSHIPMP.

If the first half of the set had LDS connotations, at least now we've got the Cure!  BOS to "Hot, Hot, Hot!!!" (3 bangs to distinguish from the David Johansen)

PS: This would have been a bigger hit if Duran Duran had done it.

The song before Los Lobos was the Cure?  I had no idea.  Never heard it before.

Another OMFGLOL, Erasure "Victim Of Love".  Dancing to the Cure, Cult & Erasure was how I spent most of 1987.

ETA:  I was going to accuse Dave of never palying Erasure, but in fact he has a few times, including this song once.  But it seems like he doesn't because half of the Erasure entries are in 2004, and only one in the past 21 months.

Glory!  Wish I'd known about this at the time.  I feel like skip-dancing!

Erasure were not on your 16-year-old's radar in '87?

What song? Obviously it wasn't La Bamba.
Let's get right to it.

I'm pretty sure some of the clubs in Pacific Beach segued from Erasure to G'n'R back then, too.  Bang your head.

methinks you misread that.  Dave hadn't heard "Hot, Hot, Hot!!!" which was followed by "Come On, Let's Go", which he did ID as Los Lobos.

No - I didn't know about alternative stations at the time, so was still listening to straight Top 40.  Pun halfway intended: Pittsburgh's B-94 wouldn't even play "Chains of Love" or "A Little Respect" two years later, and those both went pop Top 10!

another of those artists you'd think Dave would love (and not just for the gay angle) that he doesn't seem overly-enamored of.
