Greg Allman followed by REM's "Superman". Quick, name the one-hit-wonder band who did "Superman" originally.

Nineteen eighty-snooze.  Stumped on the "Superman" question.

The Clique, whose only Top 40 hit was their fab cover of Tommy James' "Sugar on Sunday", did the original version of "Superman".

Wow - nice trivia, Femme Jolie!

and now Mr Gabriel "In Your Eyes"... this is a very Moreyesque (i.e., Katrina-laden) '86 set. I may have to bail. I somehow doubt Bob's going to honor us with Jermaine Stewart or Timex Social Club.

Finally, a wakeup: BOS to the Harlem Shuffle!  The last great Stones performance IMHO.

If Bob ever went black, he'd never go back.

Sugar on Sunday, bailing on Tuesday -- hmmm, do I stay for "Harlem Shuffle"?  This and REM are tied for a VHM.

WOS to Jackson Browne: this song has as much personality and excitement as a wet brown grocery bag.
