24 Jan 2013: it's.. 1993

[CapnJack]

And here's our *THIRD* repeat:

Have they asked for requests yet in the Renee era?

[CapnJack]

Counting Crows and RHCP 2-way tie for BOS sez Renee

[RGMike]

And here's our *THIRD* repeat:

Have they asked for requests yet in the Renee era?

No. DC was *very* happy to see that aspect of 10@10 go away, I'm sure. Too labor-intensive if nothing else (and DC and RR are waaaay too busy to care about Foghead input).

And here's our *THIRD* repeat:

Have they asked for requests yet in the Renee era?

No, but somehow I've gotten two frequently-requested-but-never-played-during-the-AL-era-requests in. (Alphaville - Big in Japan in 1984 & The Blue Nile - Headlights on the Parade in 1989)

[RGMike]

1. Belly - Feed The Tree
2. Cracker - Euro-Trash Girl
3. Concrete Blonde - Mexican Moon *
(Commercial: you'll spend 24.5 years sleeping. 14.5 years working, etc)
4. Sheryl Crow - Leaving Las Vegas
5. John Hiatt - Perfectly Good Guitar
6. Counting Crows - Mr. Jones
7. Chris Isaak - San Francisco Days
(News: River Phoenix dead)
8. Morphine - Buena *
9. 10,000 Maniacs - Because The Night
(Movie: Coneheads - I come from France)
10. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Soul To Squeeze *

* - repeats from previous 1993 set, less than a month ago.

And here's our *THIRD* repeat:

Have they asked for requests yet in the Renee era?

No, that's been a big part of the disgruntlement. Shoot, how hard would it be to pick the songs in advance, set up a token request thread with 1-2 suggestions per customer, then watch as people get stoked as their "requests" are played? No doubt many "requests" WOULD be played, given the high volume of LN's, FF's, Trinas, Foos, and what have you.

[Here'sToYa!]

Too labor-intensive if nothing else (and DC and RR are waaaay too busy to care about Foghead input).

Sarcasm, right?

[CapnJack]

Since "God Only Knows" was played in today's 1966 set, it reminded me of a trio of songs I would like to have heard in the 1993 set:

Elvis Costello & the Brodsky Quartet "God Only Knows" (live at Town Hall)
Frank Black "Hang On To Your Ego"
Tears For Fears "Brian Wilson Said"

But RR/DC weren't taking requests. Oh well...

I'll play!

Dada, "Here Today Gone Tomorrow"
Judybats, "Incredible Bittersweet"
Depeche Mode, "Walking In My Shoes"

My longstanding 1993 wishlist that I trotted out every time AL did that year:

I Don’t Wanna Fight (Tina Turner)
Show Me Love (Robin S)
I’ll Do anything for Love (MeatLoaf)
-7- (Prince)
Mr Wendal (Arrested Development)
Moving on Up (M People)
Can’t Get Enuf of Your Love (Taylor Dayne)

of these, only the Prince tune ever got played.

[radical347]

Captain Hollywood Project - More and More
Culture Beat - Mr. Vain
The Cure - Purple Haze
The Catherine Wheel - Crank

[RGMike]

The Cure - Purple Haze

wow, I forgot about that Hendrix covers CD (Stone Free) -- surprised we haven't heard more from it on 10@10, actually. Not that I'd want to hear the Spin Doctors, but still.

I'm going to listen as I drive down i5 on the way to NAMM

The National Association of Music Mavens? 

North American Music Masochists?

National Association of Music Merchants, for those unfamiliar with the letters.  It was strange, driving down I-5, being able to listen to KFOG via an app on my iPhone.  What a modern world we live in!  The app provided all the song titles for me, since many songs are way outside my level of familiarity.
