19 Dec 2012: it's... 2000 (!)
« on: December 19, 2012, 09:43:12 AM »
I have a '60s hunch today -- it would make for a Sixties Trifecta with the Peak and the Drive -- but more likely '90s.  Any word about a Foghead Xmas Card for Friday or Monday?

eek: it's our first 2000 set of the RR era. 

WOS1 Matchbox 20.

BOS1 Bent by Matchbox TWENTY.  ;) :P

Track 2: quite the snoozy rarity, The Door by Keb' Mo'.

that was my first thought too but they're doing 1982 which for them is just as bad -- AOR crapola, probably.

VHM Keb' Mo' (was that enuf apostrophes?)

wow, hard to believe Knopfler's "What it is" is a dozen years old.  I liked it then but it's LN now by virtue of constant KFOG rotation.

I had that reaction too, so I'm going to BOS2 it.

Just for fun, let's see how this set stacks up with AL's 2000 set from Jan. this year:

 1.  Smash Mouth- Then The Morning Comes
 2.  Dandy Warhols- Bohemian Like You
 3.  Steely Dan- Cousin Dupree
 4.  Five for Fighting- Easy Tonight
 5.  Elliott Smith- In The Lost and Found (Honky Bach)/The Roost
 6.  No Doubt- Simple Kind of Life
 7.  Mark Knopfler- What It Is
 8.  Soggy Bottom Boys- Man of Constant Sorrow (B.O.S!)
 9.  Macy Gray- I Try
10.  The Hives- Main Offender

OMG.  Despite still being all over Live 105, hearing Linkin Park on 10@10 is a sheer surprise & non-snoozy.  BOS3
WOS Yellow.

I think Linkin Park are horrid so I can't BOS them, but props for thinking outside the KFOG box. We need an acronym for that -  IHIBAWR, "I Hate It, But A Worthy Rarity"   ;)

agreed on "Yellow" -- uber-uber-uber-LN.

FYI the Sound's '82 set so far:

"Rock the casbah"
"Eye in the Sky"
"I Melt With You"
"Edge of 17"

Oy.

That robotic "the year two-thousand" bumper they're using is pretty cheesy sounding. Did AL use the same one when she visited this year?
