Would Mike be gobsmacked that Bob played 5 Man Electrical Band's *other* hit? You're absolutely right.

It's Rob's first-ever trip to 1996. So far we've had:
Smashing Pumpkins, "Tonight, Tonight" - I know I had this album in late '95, but it kept spawning singles well into '96. (Top 40 hits from Mellon Collie: 4. Top 40 hits for the rest of the Pumpkins' career: 0.) And what a wonderful video from John and Valerie Ferris.
"Lack of Water" - I forget who this was, but it was a KFOG staple around the time I arrived in SF
Sublime, "Santeria" - one of a half-dozen of their songs Live 105 had in heavy rotation that fall and winter.
Wilco, "Monday" - ignored at the time, sounds like a staple now.
Beck, "Devil's Haircut" - takes me back to the Polynesian-tiki-lounge kitsch scene that reigned supreme in winter '96-spring '97 before the swing revival took hold.

Holy fucking shit. The quarterback was found shot to death, along with a female companion, in a Nashville condo. No details known.

Leader of the Seeds, then just a freak. Someone on the board said the other day they liked his name.

Rob pulls out a semi-rarity that I remember well: Live, "Pain Lies by the Riverside." The boys from York did some great stuff early on but lyrically perhaps should have stayed in the shallow water. Their end-of-'90s stuff was kind of embarrassing.
