Just got chills when EJ sang about going "to the little room downstairs." That's how my mother-in-law referred to death. (Could she have copped that from this song? Hmmm.) There really are no coincidences.

TANC, indeed! You probably wouldn't otherwise have even noticed the lyric.

EJ always good but I've been hearing a bit too much of him via the Band.
No desire to see him with Mr Joel coming soon to a town near you.

indeed, AL needs to bust out a bustout, pronto (tho' I'm sure someone will tell me Dave never played this EJ tune)

Ha! What timing. Mshray swears it isn't there, but I find that hard to believe.
Speaking of coming soon to a town near you...  POC!!!!   wooo hoooo

Woohoo!! Soon enough! Getting ready to fly to Dublin on Thursday, then to Chicago on Sunday.

I would never have considered that a metaphor for death, until now.  But I think it works quite well, and if I ever write a novel I think I'll find a way to use that.

Give Annalisa props for a new Fall of Saigon clip & a new NYC bankruptcy clip as well.

ETA: and both led into some pretty good segues, the 'Oo & the Dan repsectively.

Ya ya!  And I just got tickets for Steely Dan's "Aja" show next month.  I really wanted to go to the "Royal Scam" show, but too much was already happening on that day.

Funny to hear a Dan song besides Black Friday after the NYC Bankruptcy clip. I just assumed that was what this was, then listened again and realized it was "Daddy Don't Live..."  Now if the Dan were playing Katy Lied front to back I'd be there in a second. BOS3.

OMG. BOS4 Roxy. Both Ends Burning has to be the uber-BOS for the day.
Let's get right to it.

Hey, it's a POC twin-spin!  BOS for "Both Ends Burning".  Sounding very Bowie-esque on this one, Station to Station style.

Oh, poop! I have a concert on Aja day. I'm going to Royal Scam, but the ticket prices are really, REALLY outrageous.
