Per the promo I heard this morning: "The year the Giants got a brand-new ballpark"

and once again, I'll be elsewhere today.

So far this week:

1971
1987
1979
2000

If we're back to the old pattern, then tomorrow's set will be another 80's effort or a themed set.

TOTHK: U2, Elevation.

Wasn't crazy about this one at the time, but haven't heard it much since.

Some Cash covers are amazing (see "Hurt", "Personal Jesus"). This one ain't.

Kind of a snoozy set so far; pretty mid-tempo. This David Gray tune in particular.

Yes, it's a total snoozer.

Was that clip from "Best in Show"? (IMDB says "yes")

BOS for Euphoria.

I'll give Fastball a VHM for not playing "The Way".

She gets points for finally playing Moby and David Gray in the correct year.
