uber-BOS Joan Jett -- one of the great rock singles of the '80s and I'd love to hear it as a twin-spin with Lita Ford's "Kiss Me Deadly" in an AL '88 set.

maybe Larry tied the set into some local LA news story about transportation, like perhaps the City Council voted on some big measure re: the subway or some such stuff.   I have to give him the benefit of the doubt.  And perhaps one of his segues was a clip for the Segway!  get it?!
