OK so I know they mean this in an ironic ha-ha kind of way but I’m going to tell you a secret. I freaking love 1970s soft rock. Totally love it. Steely Dan? Love it. Michael McDonald? Love it. Fleetwood Mac? You don’t know even want to know how much I love it. They need to add James Taylor to the rotation and then we’ll really be talking about a party.

Thanks for the plug, Michelle! Make no mistake about it, though, I love this music. Some of the people that come might be there for the kitsch of it, sure, but personally, I love the Doobies and Fleetwood Mac. Tusk is one of the greatest pop albums ever written.
With that said, James Taylor is happening, but only if you make an appearance!
