I'm antsy for a bustout. And "Marlena" ain't it. VHM anyway.

BOS2 to the backup vocals to Slave To Love, though not as good as the ones on Avalon.

I used to confuse J&MC and New Order around this time. Glad AL didn't play 'em back-to-back. BOS2.

This is a rather standard-issue set so far. BOS3 Lone Justice, frequent-flier tho' it is. I ain't afraid to stick it in!

turns out Ms Vega is appearing off-B'way in a play about Carson McCullers. May have to check that out.

Hoodoo Gurus -- a bustout?  BOS4FRA "Bittersweet"

VHN INXS, or as a cow orker used to pronounce it, "ink-siss"

isn't this from '86?  (it was a single that year; the LP is indeed '85)

sounds good today.  A shame they left the scene.

Hoodoo Gurus -- a bustout?  BOS4FRA "Bittersweet"

no, we've heard it before, I think more than one of their other (bigger?) hits, Come Anytime.  it's an "Elite Frequent Flyer" to me.

BOS2 for this fine poppy nugget.

BOSing Love Vigilantes and Ways To Be Wicked.  Finally at a real computer.  Using a touchscreen phone for this forum is almost as maddening as putting together something from IKEA.

Looks like "Slave to Love" and "She Sells sanctuary" were the only actual requests we got. But at least we avoided "Kayleigh".

A little standardly AL new wave, but not bad.  The Cult gets an HM, John Fogerty gets nothing, the rest get BOS 1-8, I guess.   But I wish the requests would have gotten a bit more love; would have been great to hear the Killing Joke or Echo+Bunnymen.
