People on FB are guessing '86 (we did it last week) and '88 (ditto).

VHM the Alarm, aka U3.

aka "Katrina".

Really, Psych Furs and Icehouse I suppose are OK, but the Alarm are definitely on my never-need-to-hear-again list.

And yes, I'm cranky today.

no complaints yet. Certainly some big sweeping sounds in the first three four songs.  Lips Like Sugar is the one song everyone knows from Echo, oh well.

I gotta give "Lips Like Sugar" a big BOS.  

Kind of takes the thrill off of hearing Dred Scott play it last night, though, which I was quite certain at the time was a rarity (outside of 10at10, of course).

Take back Joe Piscopo, and take back this song too, TP at his most annoying, despite the easy sing-along-ability of the lyrics.

Greed still hasn't gone out of style.

Take back your... '80s & '90s.

Another flop of a set.

Silly Foghead just LURVES him some DC.  ::)
Silly Foghead is annoying and somewhat stalker-ish.
