So I missed the intro. Is the an End of REM as We Know It set, or 1989?

ETA: Well, the Smithereens have the answer for that.

I half-expected a Foghead-generated "Goodbye REM" set tomorrow, but I'm guessing that ain't happening now.  I'm sticking with the UK chart show, a no-request '89 set sounds like torture to me (prove me wrong, AL, and I'll listen to the replay)

This 10,000 Maniacs song is NTM. Not bad.

Ob PFism: Is there anybody out there?

Not much action on FB. AL's not on fire (yet).

"Here Comes Your 'Trina"?

I see the 10K Maniacs tune was "Eat For 2", which may be a bustout, actually.  But the Cure sure ain't one.

BOS, The Cure.  A frequent flyer, but I never get tired of this one.

VHM, the Pixies.

Fred P said "WTF is this shit?" (I'm paraphrasing)

But everybody's gushing over Love & Rocketrinas.

Seriously, other than Ms Bush and the 10KManiacs tune, this was like Dave on autopilot. Sad sad sad.

Oh, and that new guy on FB who thought it was 1979 and would. not. let. go... sheesh.

jeezus, they followed 10@10 with "Don't Dream it's Overplayed"?

ETA Jose F sez: "Oh lord! I Love Crowded House...mmm"  Why did I "friend" him?

I'm sorry, I know my 10@10 snarkiness seems overdone at times, but listening now feels like talking to an elderly relative with Alzheimers... sometimes they break thru but mostly they're just not the person they used to be.  And reading commenters on FB, the majority of whom are taking no notice whatsover of the difference between the sort of set AL did today and the stuff she was doing 6 months ago... well it just makes me want to scream. Seriously.

I agree with all of your premises.  Sometimes you do go a bit beyond, but the last few weeks have just been sad.  This is not our 10@10, not anymore.  :(
