Hmmm, when it comes to these Luck sets AL is in a bit of a rut. See the sets that were played as recently as April 13 and as far back as 2010. Pretty similar, right down to the soundbites.

it gets to be like Tax day. or Pride. There's a limited number of selections, ya gotta play some certifiable "classics", and yadda yadda yadda.  I think the Mary Chapin Carpenter was a bustout, tho'. And a welcome one.
