[Introspective] PSB set list for Donald Trump

[Kurt Booker]

Bill, I did think your Trump list was fun and inspired and I should have defended it more vigorously.  I was really tired when I posted last night.

I’m glad everyone else is enjoying the album.  I just turned 48 and have been listening to these guys since 1984, and electronic dance music longer than that.  So I’m probably more jaded, or my tastes have changed.   I did enjoy much of Electric, so maybe Super just needs to grow on me a bit.  At least it’s not Elysium, my least favorite album by them.

Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?" (Trump is certainly an example of American exceptionalism. Exceptionally crazy, anyway.)

I'm enjoying "Twenty-something" a lot -- it's catty but classy in the same vein as "Your early stuff" and even "Yesterday when I was mad." I've only heard the album like twenty times :-) so it's too early to really rank it, but I'm not at all disappointed. Although I turned 38 last month, "The pop kids" still makes me feel like I'm discovering this band all over again in 1993 when I stumbled across the Very/Relentless clear flexible case and bought it just because it looked cool.
