AL is really getting political, as well she should.

BOS3 White Stripes, Seven Nation Army.
Let's get right to it.

The White Stripes...HUGE alternative hit.  Not quite a VHM, but still good choice.  A band I generally respect even though I don't like anything by them.

LOL @ Janet Jackson.

"Mission Accomplished!"

AL is nailing the decade, that's fo' sho'.

We have to hear "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley at some point, no?

It would be a good choice, and it should work within the framework she's got going. That was 2006, iirc (it was all over the radio in the UK when we were there that year).  I was kinda hoping for Hey Ya for '03, but it's just a little too bouncy-happy for this set.

I'm going to Wichita to give a BOS to White Stripes. 

Are there any other Jack's she can work in?

VHM (I can't possibly give another BOS vote) to "Seven Nation Army."  I never warmed to Jack White's voice, but the riff is undeniable.

BOS2 from me -- ironic since KFOG barely played the White Stripes this decade, even after Fogheads named the album a fave-of-the-year.

BOS3 Green Day!

Sad how big a deal the nip slip became.  Janet Jackson's career was killed (not that she helped herself with her halfhearted albums).

Despite the overkill of "21 Guns", I can still BOS "American Idiot".

AL takes it to GW, big time. Another BOS for American Idiot, beeps and all.

How about Flaming Lips' "Thank You, Jack White, for the Fiber-Optic Jesus That You Gave Me"?  Aww, that was '03.

Appearance of Arcade Fire may be biggest surprise of set.  I was in Montreal at the time of Katrina, and their "Neighborhoods" song was in their version of the Billboard Top 10, alongside Black Eyed Peas, etc.  Was odd to hear on the radio in that context since they're a fringe act here.

WOS 43 "Brownie, you're doing a heckuva job." 

Not sure I've ever actually heard the audio on that before.

Annalisa keeps hammering away.
