Takin' It to the Streets (of San Francisco) - Doobies


Hey, I can see the Transbay Terminal in this shot! Who'd a-thought I'd become nostalgic about a building I never went into?

Odds of Journey and "Lights" finishing off the set -- pretty damned high, I would think.

I'm thinking that's the Embaracadero Freeway. If this shot were taken now, it would have been blocked by One Rincon. I want to say that the on/off ramps in this picture led to Battery Street.

But I could be wrong.

I've never been happier to see a prediction not come true. ;)

But I assume we'll get J-when-they-sucked in the '80s Local set.

"Friday on My Mind" - Earthquake!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_Quake_%28band%29

The entry mentions their manager Matt Kaufman, who is (or was, membership is failing) a member of my golf club (Tilden Men's, no country clubbin' here).  Several years ago I had him track down "Savin' My Love" for me on mp3.  Hokey, guitar laden epic, that I am going to listen to now.

Amen. Probably my least favorite Journey tune. And arguably my least favorite SF-related song.

I obviously wasn't keeping very good count.  And I don't really mind "Lights" -- Journey when they were going bad, like milk just before it turns...

For the 1980's (and what are the chances we'll have 1968, 1978, 1988 and 1998 sets to round out the week?):

Journey and Huey Lewis I have to think are givens.
Romeo Void
Starship, preferably still with the Jefferson
more Pointers?
Night Ranger (I would vote for "Sentimental Street")

that's just off the top of my rapidly-diminishing mind.
