Title: 22 June 2012: The Pride Set!
Post by: RGMike on June 19, 2012, 10:24:16 AM
Gotta assume we'll be getting one. AL's done a fine job with these the last couple years.

ETA: yup, the thread is up on FB.

Gotta say that I'm a bit peeved at people requesting "Killing of Georgie" and "All the Girls Love Alice" -- songs in which gay people end up dead. Hope AL is planning something a bit more... upbeat.

You know what I would most wish for in this set?  A movie clip of the scene from The Amateurs where William Fichtner's character gets Ted Danson's character to finally admit that he is gay.

I was gonna guess Chanticleer at first, but too few voices and the material just isn't their style AT ALL.

and it's not at all terrible, but Dave's Pride sets tended to be downbeat (Tom Robinson, that Neil Finn AIDS song, etc) and it was part of that vibe.

Didn't recognize that slow one either.  We need some Sylvester, quick.  Ah, "I Kissed a Girl"--  Katy Perry, eat yer heart out.

not exactly, but that was how it was reported. From the NYRMB:

"SCOTUS did NOT rule on whether the rule actually complies with the First Amendment. The ruling was limited to the fact that the plaintiffs (Fox and ABC) did not receive fair notice of the rule and how it would be enforced. It was really a procedural ruling rather than one on the constitutional merits of the rule."

I guess this Sylvester song qualifies as LN, but when else would we get to hear it?  I still like it.

assuming this is song 10 (I lost count), I guess AL's choice was either this or the Carl Bean -- we've heard both in all her Pride sets so far, I think.

ooops -- I missed the beginning, she *did* play the Rev Mr Bean.  BOS7.

Yeah, Dave's interpretation of Pride was informed by the loss of  his partner and his Pride sets seemed to reflect that.  I had thought about requesting the TRB song, but after AL's comment on wanting to stay positive, and on reflecting about the content of the lyrics, I thought better of it and went for the Mukilteo Fairies song that Dave would play sometimes. (Not that Glad to Be Gay is not a great song. )

Indeed, "GTBG" is brilliant ... and very much of its era. I worshipped Tom Robinson then --saw him live several times in '79 and '80, incliding at the Bottom Line in NYC where I was close enuf to touch him.  He's married to a woman, now, ya know.  We need to hear "Grey Cortina" in a '79 set someday. or "Power in the Darkness".

they censored it for the PM replay on Friday, so no surprise the "marathon" version is the bleeped one.
