  1. This takes me back! Spandex and big hair. The gold old days. I had to play "Dirty Love" to remember that one. The rest I needed no help on.

  4. Ah, Van Halen! The ultimate hair band in my opinion. This song really brings the 80's back!

    1. It's weird when a band changes singers. Glad they went back to David Lee Roth.

  6. Yes, Dreams! I have seen the Blue Angels perform and we live so close to SFO that we see them do their practice runs occasionally. Thanks for the tunes!

    1. That would be cool! We're close to an ANG base that occasionally has airshows, but they haven't ventured over my house.

  7. I haven't recognized a song since Def Leppard in B! Zoinks, I gotta grow some hair. Lotsa Van Halen songs, but don't know Dreams.
