Green Day: better. VHM but we know what I'm holding out for.

I'm giving a WOS for Swimming with Sharks.  I really don't want to see that, and I don't want to hear another painful clip.

Yeah, no cheating by playing repeated clips from the same movie in a single set. Reminds me of how she jams on the "Mr. Microphone" clip like 10x whenever it comes up. "HEY GOOD LOOKING" *smash smash*

I think AL is way lazy on the clips. Too bad because I often like those more than the set.

Almost WOS for Green Day. That riff is so repetitive.

Didn't like this set much even though I liked 1994. I don't know why everything had to be so downtempo. BOS Aimee Mann and Jeff Buckley, both NTM.

Jeff Buckley couldn't save this set.  Neither could Green Day.  1994 did not have to be this boring.

My sentiments exactly.

NRBQ doing their best John Hiatt imitation.

I always think the same thing.

When Big Al Anderson, the Q's ex-guitarist who wrote LBoB, became a bigtime Nashvegas songwriter, John Hiatt was one of the people he wrote with. So frink points to y'all for picking up on the similarity.
Let's get right to it.

and not just the song but the vocal. Uncanny similarity, actually.

We're so in tune with the straight and narrow. :) But the vocals are also Hiatt-like.

yes, a sound-alike, but maybe not a think-alike.  ("NashVegas," I like that.)

one of the FB-Fogheads actually voted a VHM to John Hiatt!

And tho' AL suggested in her BOS post that this was a set of songs KFOG was playing back then... I don't recall them playing the Jeff Buckley (BOS winner) and they definitely weren't playing Green Day or Weezer (tho' Live 105 was).

4/14/11- Thursday! Sounds Like KFOG Radio in 1994!!

 1. Toad The Wet Sprocket- Fall Down
 2.  Aimee Mann- That's Just What You Are
(Movie: Swimming With Sharks-Kevin Spacey)
 3.  REM- Bang and Blame
 4.  NRBQ- A Little Bit of Bad
(TV: The Simpsons)
 5.  Lyle Lovett- Penguins
 6.  Tom Petty- Wildflowers
(Movie: Swimming With Sharks)
 7.  Weezer- Undone (The Sweater Song)
 8.  Grant Lee Buffalo- Mockingbirds
 9.  Jeff Buckley- Last Goodbye (BOS!!)
(Movie: Swimming With Sharks)
10.  Green Day- When I Come Around

Wasn't able to tune in today, but it looks like I didn't miss much.  Would've BOSed Weezer, even though My Name Is Jonas Bros is a zillion times better than The Sweater Song.

I am MAJORLY pissed. MAJORLY.
I know, right?  I would've bet the house she was gonna play Top Of The World!  Green Day?  Talk about ov-ah-rated.
