27 April 2011: It's...1988!
« on: April 26, 2011, 11:05:00 PM »
As of 11pm, no clue as to the year or query for suggestions so I'm guessing she's doing this one herself, sans input from the masses.

ETA: AL gave us a late-night reveal of the year while we were all tucked safe in our beds--1988 (I think).

Looks like it's gonna be 1988.  AL went to the Paul Simon concert last night and posted the year around 2:00am-ish.  The insomniacs were posting soon after...

Probably just as well, as Fogheads would invariably request "Roll With It", "The Flame", or egad, the Katrina of all Katrinas "Wishing Well".

I requested non-"What I Am" Edie Brickell.

AL kicks '88 off with The Smithereens.
Here we go rollin' with a Steve Winwood Katrina.  Not off to the greatest of starts.

oh yeah, I forgot there was another Smithereens songs I liked, and this is it.

HM To Stevie Winwood.  I saw him in concert back then, it was rather yacht rocky at times, but he's a legend and what a unique voice.

1988 I think of 10,000 Maniacs, Squeeze, Traveling Willburys, B.A.D. Tighten up Volume 88, and would like to hear any of them.

John Hiatt alert?

maybe I'll just roll with it...

I think Charlie swings more than he bangs. Keith Moon would have been a better choice.  but, then again,  Charlie's alive.

They all still look amazing (unlike The Go-Go's).  Did Susannah work those sideway glances?

BOS Bangles, very nice song and seldom-played.

Boring of Set to "do you wanna dance" 50's throwback. B52's much more entertaining for this kind of sound.

Agree.  Do you wanna fall asleep? is more like it.
