I remarked on a friend's FB page that that would be akin to LeAnn Rimes opening for Metallica. Completely inappropriate. Promoters milking it.

BOS for "Young Frankenstein". One of my favorite movies of all time.

Leadoff BOS (and my request too!).

you and SRW sharing requests again?

I didn't request "Bennie & The Jets".

she asked for "Jungle Boogie", tho'

'74-for-Dummies continues with "Help Me", so help me.

VHM the mighty 'berries but we've heard this fairly recently, iirc.

Could be interesting as long as they stick with the funk and avoid marshmallow like "Joanna" and "Cherish"

wow, the radio stream is quite a bit behind the airwaves.  I should know not to look here when I'm listening to the stream, otherwise it's a bit of a spoiler.

Lots of heavy rotation stuff so far.  But BOS to Joni the Canadian.

I dunno... "Joanna" and "Jump" were both big when I was 13, so it's possible they're targeting me.

I'm just wondering what sort of demographic (aside from oddballs like us) would actually enjoy seeing both of those bands on the same stage on the same night.

Well, that answers my question. Thanks. :) I was 7, and definitely fall in that target group. But can there really be enough people to finance a concert?

Yeah, I want a hit record too, but what I *really* wanted were Hits From Hell!

I'll predict that we get one anyway - "Seasons in the Sun," mayhaps?

Hope you're all well!  I've been disenchanted with and disengaged from AL's sets in recent weeks, but I'm here today.

I'm guessing that most VH fans would at least tolerate Kool, as long as, as was previously mentioned, "Cherish" is avoided.
