ahh come on, it won't be that bad. I wouldn't go as far as saying AL is on fire, but there haven't been nearly as many bad sets recently as there used to be.

Things are certainly better but I can't think of anything in this particular category that I'm dying to hear.  Here's hoping we avoid 4 Non-Talents.

BOS for Jellyfish! I have no idea why these guys weren't huge. I never heard them in the 90s.

‎08/21/2012 - Tuesday! Local Music Month - 1990s!

1. Green Day - Welcome to Paradise
2. Jellyfish - The King Is Half Undressed
3. Counting Crows - Einstein On The Beach
4. Rancid - Time Bomb
(TV: Living Color - Calhoun Tubbs "Wrote a song about it. Want to hear it? Hear it goes.")
5. En Vogue - Free Your Mind
(Timothy Leary: "My ambition is to liberate the world. I know the odds are against me, but, uh, we only have a few years here. Let's try to leave the spaceship a better place.")
6. Chris Isaak - San Francisco Nights
7. 4 Non Blondes - What's Up?
(Super Bowl XXIV: Niners handle Broncos as Joe Montana outduels John Elway and earn Team of the Decade Honors.)
8. Primus - Jerry Was A Racecar Driver
9. The Donnas - Gimmie My Radio
10. Metallica - Enter Sandman
(TV: South Park - The Brovlofsky family is moving to San Francisco)
(Outro: The Mermen - Ocean Beach)

No surprises, but -- 4 Non-Talents aside -- not bad.  Altho' personally I think Primus really does suck.

Obviously the reason why the 90's local set was done today.

Well, there are over three years of sets to choose from. I'll treat it like NBC used to handle their Thursday night comedy block - "it's new if you haven't heard it". Or heard it recently.
