Hideous requests are already piling in:  Mike + the Mechanics, John Fogerty, Dire Straits...help us all. 
I've requested Bring on the Dancing Horses...can't remember if she played this recently.

What's up with the array of sets we're being offered this week? So far we've got two visits to the 80s (Chartbusters and 85) and what turned out to be a completely forgettable visit to '97. Is someone being pressured to downplay the 60s and 70s stuff, even though that's clearly what the audience reacts to (vis a vis the number of comments on AL's FB page)?

today is 7/7/11 -- gotta be lucky, no?  AL "liked" my request post so I'm optimistic too.

and to answer urth's query: '80s/'90s/'80s is scary but we didn't get any '90s "classics" so that decade was overdue.  At least that's what I keep telling myself.

UGH: that obnoxious Sun_Gevity commercial again.  That guy sounds like Jesse Ventura.

Here here! (or shall I say, hear hear!)  Hoping she'll play at least one of the R&B/dance songs I requested on FB.

nice start with the Heads -- and that "earworm OHW" has got to be "Tarzan Boy", I'm guessing.

Cable TV feed is earlier than radio, so I'm delaying a bit.

Let's get those HOOters outta the way...  ;)
I saw them in Sept 82 in Philly (at JFK Stadium), they were opening act on bill with Santana, The Clash and The Who.  Some Clash and Who fans clashed a la Mods vs Rockers.
