Currently waiting in line to see Jeff Tweedy (of Wilco) do a solo show at The Vic in Chicago so what better time to post to this thread. Threw the iPod on shuffle and this is what popped up: **The Replacements** - “NeverMind” **Amy Winehouse** - "Me and Mr. Jones (live in London) **The Frames** - “Star Star” **Rhett Miller** - “The El” (Chicago appropriate) **Phoenix** - “Lisztomania” The Winehouse was a nice treat because I had the chance to see her at this same venue back in 2007, the day before my daughter was born. ---

Wow, I don’t think any two posters have mentioned the same performer let alone the same piece of music. ---

Last night I was poking around the 80’s videos on youtube, so it was (most recent first): I Ran, Flock of Seagulls I Melt With You, Modern English The Great Commandment, Camouflage And before that, I was in the car listening to the Chieftains play Irish folk music. I know one of them was Whiskey in the Jar, but can’t remember titles for any others. Our family gets more blasted by St. Patrick’s Day Irish stuff, since the oldest kid takes Irish dance–we spent yesterday morning watching her dance in an arctic gale at the college’s Shamrock Shuffle (A fun run + free pancake breakfast + music/dance entertainment, in a futile effort to keep the students out of the bars for a few more minutes). ---
