BOS to Radio Waves! 

VHM's to Sting and Def Leppard and Suzanne Vega.  Well ok, Ms. Vega can get a BOS2 I suppose.

AL's straddling quite well the fine line between relaxing and ZzZzZzZz.

is this what drerams are made of? Well, frankly, AL... no.

This set had its moments, but it suffered from the same aflliction as Dave's late-'80s excursions: severe pop/R&B anemia.

But -- say hallelujah! -- Mojo saves the day!  BOS4.

Missed the whole set having another nasty conversation with my boss.  With the last four tunes this turned into a pretty great set IMHO, but all I got to hear was the bonus track.

How about "I Want A New Drug - One that makes me feel like I feel when I'm with you - when I'm alone with you... I've probably quoted that wrong.

Ha -- actually, you quoted it exactly!  Of course, any drug that makes you feel like you're with Nancy Reagan would probably fall under the "Death Panel" provision.  ;)
