Whoa, here's a head-turner--and another Bustout, Brian Setzer's big band take on Town Without Pity. BOS 4, just 'cause.

Digging the horn charts on that one--wonder who did the arrangement?

So far this has been about 50-50 between 104.5 and 105.3, which was approximatley my listening habit at the time.

Sounds like a plan.  I'll call your cell next week to coordinate deets.
Is it just you going?

Digging today's set so far.  Though if I was in a different kind of mood it probably would annoy me.  Hard to explain.

Both of the overplayed Hot AC recurrents (Dishwalla and Oasis) are probably my 2 favorite overplayed Hot AC recurrents from that year, so no problem there  ;D

Yecch, Phish, especially that one.  The Phish news clip was kinda weird too :-\

Gene Pitney (songs) still rule on 10at10!

Definitely the BSO, Mike.

Thought so.  A great song -- it was actually nominated for a Best Song Oscar, tho' it has little to do with the rather grim film (of the same name) it was written for.

WOS Brian Setzer over Phish.  I remember distinctly thinking back then when "Jump Jive N Wail" came out that big band does NOT belong in the 90s.  >:(

VHM Cake's very-much-ironic (like everything they do) take on I Will Survive. I still have trouble getting my head around the fact that John McCrea is now a Big. Rock. Star. I still picture him playing dives and opening for other local bands in various pubs around Sacto.

Most likely bringing my son, he really wants to go to a concert & I figured this was reasonably appropriate for a 9.5 yr old.  And my wife wants me to take him, too.

BOS Garbage!  ;D (My other favorite overplayed Hot AC recurrent from this year.)

This was my very second CD (I bought it because I liked "Queer" and "Only Happy When It Rains" and was ecstatic when "Stupid Girl" got released to radio!)

and HM to Cake.

He's built his entire career on that.

I found those last two interesting as rarities, but not something to get excited about.

I can definitely give Garbage a BOS though.

More Live 105-ery: Garbage. No, the band, not a comment on it's quality.

remember when we'd get angry if Dave did a '90s set on a Friday?  This one's most entertaining, but then it's far more KITS than KFOG.  (KFOG wouldn't discover Cake for several more years.)
