BOS for "Bitch", another Random Numbers favorite.  When we were learning this song, the guy who wrote it out transcribed a line thusly:
"Feelin' drunk, too stubborn Scotty!"
and later
"Feelin' hungry, can't see the reason.  Just had a hot beef steak!"

We laughed.

Dave, have you (or anyone else here) ever seen or even heard of PDQ Bach?  I always think of PDQ when Mick says his heart is beating faster than

a big drum.

George returns to help Ringo.  And AL is firmly in familiar territory so far.

can we include the other two Beatles in this?

If you're a pro DJ w extensive chart knowledge, it should come easy.

Think the CK tune was today's only bustout. But I'm liking the bookends of post-Beatles tunes on either end of the set. Although looking at the clock, I think we got a couple more to go? John? Paulie?
Let's get right to it.

BOS for Ringo doing a pretty credible George imitation.  The arrangement is right out of George's playbook.  I suppose there's a reason for this...

Instant BOS George, "What Is Life?"

this has been a great set so far for my mental health.  Keepin' it in perspective with George & respectin' myself the Staples.

another good one for my Monday, and a George twin-spin of sorts.

BOS #5 "It Don't Come Easy"

It will soon by your tomorrow

Yup, I've seen "him" a couple times.  Very enjoyable.  Played a PDQ Bach piece in band one year, which included the "Crasho Grosso" -- instructions to the percussion section to drop everything they've got.  Pretty impressive effect.

Did Dave really never play "It's Too late"? I know he was extremely lax in the Carole King dept., but sheesh.

BOS4 Tull.

Now here's a rarity for you -- biggest BOS so far for Jethro Tull's "Cross-Eyed Mary".  Aqualung is just an amazing album.

Perhaps one more in the bustout column: Crosseyed Mary, Tull.

Cross-Eyed Mary is a bustout & then some! Uber BOS!

Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again.
She signs no contract but she always plays the game.
She dines in Hampstead village on expense accounted gruel, and the jack-knife barber drops her off at school.
Laughing in the playground gets no kicks from little boys: would rather make it with a letching grey.

we did a PDQ Bach song in our High School Glee club.  The piece which includes the phrase "...Look.. up... her... dress!"  

Very instrumental in helping me to form my musical and voyeuristic tastes.   (actually, that last phrase is only half true.)

The show I saw featured the Bermuda Triangle, with which the percussionist did a clever sleight of hand the third time it was featured in the piece, as well as the drum

OMG! BOS5 and proxy of Gaz, Cherilyn LaPiere Bono Allman.



I think Dave only played this as an HFH. Bob's played it a few times, tho'.

I can only imagine the glee being experienced by all of y'all.

BOS4, Cher, Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves.

The Scud Mountain Boys (all-male) used to cover this one live, with no gender changes to the lyrics.
