AAAACK!! Sistah Hootie, er Hazel.  WOS3.

That's it. Thanks. Sister Hazel. Can't we get some Motherhips or Tea Leaf Green if we have to listen to this?

I need something with a green leaf and it ain't tea...

C'mon over!

I remember "The Impression That I Get" appearing on the Jed the Fish countdown, to which the host responded "Damn this song sucks." Granted he isn't Casey Kasem, but I was still a little surprised to hear that.

And yeah, this set sucks. From the top of my head, a better '97 10@10 that could conceivably be played:

D'Ya Know What I Mean, Oasis
Lemon Tree, Fools Garden
Electric Barbarella, Duran Duran
If Tomorrow Never Dies, Sheryl Crow
The End Is The Beginning Is The End, Smashing Pumpkins
I Want You, Savage Garden
Legend Of A Cowgirl, Imani Coppola
I & I, Taja Seville
Desperately Wanting, Better Than Ezra
What Would Happen, Meredith Brooks

Officer Barbrady from South Park agrees with you.

I don't know about the title, but I can tell you there's no false advertising going on there. That picture is exactly how I felt the two times I listened to the album.

7/6/11- Wednesday!!! Get Out The Map To 1997!


1.  Third Eye Blind- Semi-Charmed Life
2.  Blues Traveler- Most Precarious
(Movie: Titanic)
3.  Mighty Mighty Bosstones- The Impression That I Get
4. Indigo Girls- Get Out The Map
(Movie: Men In Black)
5.  O.M.C.- How Bizarre
6.  Sister Hazel- All For You
(Local News: Bridge Repairs/New 49'ers Stadium?)
7.  Jonny Lang- Lie To Me
8.  Widespread Panic- Aunt Avis
(News:Jon Benet Ramsey murder)
9. Fiona Apple- Criminal

A cow orker made me miss Widespread Panic -- not complaining, tho' it appears to be a song I'm not familiar with. Only bustout of the set?

Damnit!  >:(  Last night I was actually brainstorming a bunch of songs that would sound killer for '97, anticipating on requesting them during the next '97 set, and then she goes and does '97 this morning without taking requests & of course stuffs it with blandages &/or repeats.  1997 does NOT have to sound this bad.  Oddly enough, even though I hate Blues Traveller in general, I have to rank Most Precarious as 'most tolerable.'  Perhaps it's because it's the only one of their "hits" that never became overplayed.  The 3EB wasn't bad, but enough is enough.  To be fair, decent TOTHK though.

I could probably do without most of the Live 105 monster hits too, since those still get overplayed between Alice/Mix & even Live & KFOG.

My stab @ 97 (also digging Swellegant's list):
Duran Duran - Electric Barbarella
Save Ferris - Come on Eileen (If she really must play ska...forget SNZ or RBF, play these guys instead)
Eleanor McEvoy - Precious Little
OMD - Walking on the Milky Way
The Verve Pipe - The Freshmen
Aqua - Barbie Girl (Though I know a lot of people hate this & I doubt AL would ever play it)
Faithless - Insomnia
The Cure - Wrong Number
Forest for the Trees - Dream
Merril Brainbridge - Mouth

My pics would be:

Beetlebum/On Your Own - Blur
Gone Till November - Wyclef Jean
Hypnotize - Notorious B.I.G. (since we were talking about Lil' Kim and all...)
