"amber is the color of your energy"?

(311, apparently)

Luce was inevitable.

Ha! first post-set song: Dave Matthews.

I would've expected his duet with Angelique whats-her-name in a 2001 set. Or that Peter Gabriel world-music collab.

first time for this year...?  How soon before we start hearing sets from, say, "April 2011?"

I listened hear and there.  The song stylings of that second track seems very self-conscious, can't explain it, but it fits as a pairing w The Royal Tannenbaums, as Wes Anderson's style is also self-conscious.  

I like Luce's voice.  ..and I used to like that Train song, but the more I see/hear of Pat and his bandmates, the less I like it.

someone on FB requests an "All Jerry" 10@10 sometime this week, ideally Friday. 

It *would* make sense, as it's "local scene" month, his B-day was today and his death-day is coming up. Good luck with that, bub.

Ok, I was probably the only one excited at the idea of 2001, but most unnecessary of set = THE ENTIRE DAMN SET  >:( >:( >:( except for maybe Pete Yorn & David Byrne.  I think the JJ song was on AL's 2000-2009.  But srly this wuz lk an underpar KFOG sample hr, zOMG  ::)

I also like how she stuck the final single off of U2's ATYCLB, "In a Little While," in 2000, but put the first single, "Beautiful Day" in 2001...  :P

Re: Train.  Yes.  I too liked most of their stuff, until they blew it with Calling All Angels.  Now I hate everything by them.

A better set would have been:
Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood
Afro-Celt Sound System ft. Peter Gabriel - When You're Falling
Pete Yorn - Life in a Chain
Delerium ft. Sarah McLachlan - Silence
David Gray - Please Forgive Me
Darude - Sandstorm
Poe - Hey Pretty
Dexter Freebish - Leaving Town
Josh Joplin Group - Camera One
Wheatus - Teenage Dirtbag

thanks, that was the PG/world music thing I couldn't think of. I'll always associate it with that year because it ended up on that "songs not to play after 9/11" list that Clear Channel put out.

AL did play the Pete Yorn you mentioned (I WOSed it -- that filter his voice goes thru always struck me as way too gimmicky)

And yes, it was a totally KFOG-playlist-centric set, as I suspect DC dictates for anything post-1990.  AL really needs to play some Britney Spears.

I'd love to hear it, probably next Tuesday would be the best day (end of 'Jerry Week') but I can't see the PD letting it happen.
