BOS for Heart and "Even It Up".  I have a soft spot for this song, because the Wilson sisters taught me how to sing it at the Experience Music Project.  Sort of.

I like the saxes at the end of this tune -- gives it a kind of George Harrison feel to it.

shrinky-dinks!  George Costanza's favorite toys!

"Call Me" seals the deal: it's 1980.  More Chick rock, tho'.

Ayup.

If this is going to be an all-ladies set, I'm hoping for Charlie Dore.  Would Martha and the Muffins be date-appropriate?
