4 Nov 2009: 1968!!

[Davefish]

ok, brief stop in Rarityville is over.  Now we're back On the Road Again to HeavyRotationburg

Yah, I never liked this one, mainly because I don't like the voice.

[RGMike]

So how many bustouts did we have here? I know "Tapioca Tundra" was one, not sure about "Sookie Sookie" and "Lather".

and what's the over/under on hearing "21 Guns" between now and 11:00?  They played it at 5:55 this morning, so it's due.

the last 60's set had Beatles-Stones-Who-Kinks, and this set had none of the above.  Another interesting dichotomy.

Answer:  E.) all of the above

ETA: ...and "Ride My Seesaw" was only played in the original Sledgehammer set over 8 yrs ago.

first one off the bat.  good call!

That would be a "yes" for all three. Dave only ever played Born to be Wild and Magic Carpet Ride in 68, and Rock Me in '69. And no Airplane in 68 at all. Amazing.

And you nailed the first tune out of the set, but you didn't exactly need a crystal ball for that one.

Not quite. "Departure/Ride My Seesaw" showed up in three '68 sets, all in 2004.

you're right, didn't see it in the 'D' section.  Have since edited the "Departure/" bit out so that it sorts better.

 10.  Canned Heat - On the Road Again

Ha!  

ETA:  BTW, I am in the minority here -- I like "On The Road Again".

ETASM:  But I thought the title was "Goin Down to The Country" or some such.

well, if it helps, I like Canned Heat too!  "On The Road Again" is definitely a different song than "Going Up the Country."  Are you saying AL played "Going Up the Country" instead of "On The Road Again?"

I like Canned Heat, too.  That Kermit joke was for Gaz...! 

AL played On The Road Again for sure...

[urth]

ok, I know I'm not the only one who noticed the opening organ riff of You Keep Me Hanging On matches VERY closely the Nah-Nah-nah-nah vocals of Hush, Am I?

BOS DP

Yes, I had to wait a few seconds before I posted my BOS for VF, as I wasn't 100 percents that "Hush" had ended and "You Keep Me Hangin' On" had started...

Listening to the replay, noticed that the organ notes also replicate the chords of Pictures of Matchstick Men. That AL, doesn't miss a trick.

[Gazoo]

I like Canned Heat, too.  That Kermit joke was for Gaz...! 

Slyboots!  Loved it.

Damn, I missed "Tapioca Tundra"!  I didn't think over-trebling (?) his voice was a good call, but I love the movement on that one.  And yes, it was "Valleri"'s B-side, but it charted #38 in its own right.
