I've got this on my hard drive, but I think all of the good in between song chatter linked above, has been edited out.
Seriously though, hilarious.

Cass, this might be the coolest thing you've done under the Bootleg City banner. And I say that in spite of knowing that Jason will be the happiest among us.

A lesson in inflation and deflation - It's Bootleg Time. INFLATION. It's Air Supply. DEFLATION.

Oh! I was soooo happy to go see Air Supply in 1982. I was ten. And, nostalgic fool that I am, I went to see them do a casino show just last year, and the words 'icky' and 'creepy' were redefined. They still got pipes, though.

Their pipes seemed to be giving out on their infamous Time-Life Classic Soft Rock Collection infomercial, but Jason Hare swears they still had it as of 2007, and so do you. That's good enough for me.

I saw 'em in 2004, and their voices were shot, out of tune, etc. Not that I could have done any better...but I was bummed, because I was a big fan.

I have a soft spot for Air Supply: either All Out of Love or Lost in Love was the first song that I got utterly sick of hearing on the radio. Or maybe it was both: it was years before I figured out that they weren't the same song.
At any rate, thanks for reminding me of a simpler time, when Middle School was still called Jr. High, and the first time I got pissed that the less-qualified candidate had become president.

"... it was years before I figured out that they weren't the same song."
I feel the same way. I love soft rock, but there isn't a single Air Supply song I like. I guess I'd pick "Every Woman in the World" if I had to pick one, but that's not saying much. It's appropriate that the first song in the 10/22/82 set is "I Can't Get Excited." They're trying to tell you something, audience!
