So I was watching USA’s In Plain Sight and at the end of the episode they played John Waite’s Change. The first time I heard this song was on the Vision Quest soundtrack and can I tell you that was one awesome soundtrack. Hopefully it is out on CD because I so have to buy [...]

RATING: (POLITE APPLAUSE) How much you take to Augustana may depend, in part, on the last time you listened to '80s rocker John Waite, because that's whom front man Dan Layus seems to be channeling on several of the 10 cuts on "Can't Love, Can't Hurt," the...
