Vicki Peterson, guitarist for the Bangles, who play the House of Blues next Wednesday.
“I thought this was going to be much weirder than it is,” says a slightly embarrassed Vicki Peterson of her heavily Bangles-related assortment of tunes. The singer-guitarist for the still-kicking lady rockers had done her own shuffle experiment with more eclectic results. But callling from her California home last week, Peterson revealed her shuffle contained a song by in-laws the Cowsills (she’s married to John Cowsill), her other band (the Continental Drifters), and the Bangles themselves. “Oh, God, that’s so funny, I never listen to Bangles records. Can we just pretend like that didn’t happen?” she asks with a laugh.
1. “Old Friends,” Simon & Garfunkel
2. “Mr. Soul,” Neil Young
3. “I Be Low,” the Cowsills
4. “Chasing Pavements,” Adele
5. “Bell Jar,” the Bangles
6. “Too Little, Too Late,” the Dream Syndicate
7. “Ready to Run,” the Dixie Chicks

9. “The More That I’m Around You,” Jules Shear
10. “End of the Day,” the Continental Drifters
Total songs: 1,650
Surprised it didn’t come up: “I just loaded up a bunch of classic Husker Du, Black Flag, and Minutemen because I want to try to give [my 13-year-old son] a little bit of an education about classic punk rock because he still thinks Green Day is punk rock.”
