Starry Eyes indeed!  BOS5 the fabulous Records -- is this a bustout? it's been a bonus a bunch of times.

Indeed it is! (A bustout, that is.) Obviously AL digs it--and now that she's in the drivers' seat (cue Sniff 'n the Tears) we can hear it in the set proper.
Let's get right to it.

Great pop song -- the Byrds would be proud.

Yeah, yeah, we hear CtbK all the damn time--but how can you resist a hook like this one? The Brits just keep on coming!

Well, the Brit streak ends, but the bustouts continue: Dave only ever played Heart of Glass and One Way Or Another in '79. VHM Dreamin'--and I'd love to hear Rip Her To Shreds sometime.

This set is largely made up of the Bonus tracks that AL played following '79 sets for the last few years.

I can't believe that the Records, Blondie & Cure are all bustouts (standard Db disclaimer).  I would only have expected the Cure tune to be one.  Pretty sure Squeeze was too, btu haven't checked yet.

Yep, and the Police tune as well. All bustouts as far as I can tell.

Well, yes, but "Starry Eyes" is one we've all bitched about Dave never playing, and the fact that AL played it as a bonus a couple times only made its absence from actual sets more infuriating.

There was a hilarious bit on SNL about Three Mile Island featuring Dan Akroyd as Jimmy Carter.  Remember?  He was exposed to radiation and got really big -- Rodney Dangerfield was brought in to explain how big the president was.  "Oh man, he's big.  Like he could have an affair with the Lincoln Tunnel!"
