Of people really like that song because they still play it all the time on the oldie station. Having said that, you are absolutely right, the ONLY reason to see a cover band is because of their hits. And, it seems like TL 's only really big hit was The Boys song (I guess a couple of other songs people know but since I'm not a fan, I don't even know about those). In any case, I agree, there is NO excuse for not playing the big hit. What a bunch o douche bags!
