8 April 2011: it's... Giants Home Opener/SF songs
« on: April 07, 2011, 08:47:06 PM »
No clues so far, but I'm wondering if we'll get a Tax Day set next Friday, and Earth Day the following week.

AL sez it's "10 great songs for one great City", in honor of Giants' home opening day. So long as it doesn't turn into a "put me in, coach" baseball set, I'm down with that.

I prefer the gay softball version, "put it IN, coach!"

I suspect this set may contain recycled material  ;) Hoping for the Village People; dreading Journey. Oy.

Yawn.  And another yawn for Mr. Isaak.  This set's supposed to get people excited about baseball?

Seems like it's a good chance for an all-Katrina set. Chris Isaak bunts a single by mentioning the city's name a million times.

Please please please NOOOO, when the lights go down. Ugh, turning it off.

well, as long as it's an all-Katrina set, this old hippie can hope for Scott McKenzie!  Journey, not so much

actually, no -- the home opener is just an excuse to play SF songs. Snoozy ones, apparently. WOS Journey.

Based on the games I've been to, Giants fans have a generally bad taste in music so you should have expected this set to Titanic.

(Before you get all upset, that applies to all baseball fans.)

I thought I hear a digital glitch near the end of the song.
