stand by for Steve Miller, Foreigner...

...and '77 ubertrina "Black Betty", bam-a-lam. I hear she's a "Brick House". She's a cow, she's a cow, she's a cow, now!

aaack! WOS UFO, "Too Awful Hot To Handle".

VHM APP, "Breakdown". Hope Lady Gagabellum gives them half a Grammy.

Cheeze for Breakfast: BOS Cartman Styx, sailing ay-way; ELO turn to stone.

Holy flaming flutes! BOS2 Tull, "Songs From the Wood"! Bob's nicest rarity in some time. Where's that Tull fan from AL's FB page?

as predicted: Foreigner feels you up like it's your first time. And if Bob Welch had his way with ya, baby... he'd take you to "Solsbury Hill".

Thur 2/24/11: 1975

Bob woos us until the sun comes up, while longing for the old days.  We took his ring -- took his bay-bays!

Bob continues his practice of playing Gary Wright's 1976 hits in '75 sets. But VHM "Love is Alive" anyway. Mr Carrack wants to know how long it is. Rather a personal question, innit?

The screen-door slams. BOS "Thunder Road"

BOS2 the sayer of leo and his long tall glahsses. "Now wait a minute!"

VHM Foghat, dey a fool fo' da city.

proxy of shray: Head East, but there's never been any reason to BOS it myself.
