INT. SIMONETTE RESTAURANT – DAY
The PRODUCER is seated at a table in a French bistro in Culver City drinking a glass of Beaujolais. The PRODUCER’s cellphone is face-up on the bar, revealing an open line to DJ 3000′. The pre-game coverage of the Spain-Belgium match is playing on a television behind the bar.
PRODUCER: Couldn’t find a Belgian or Spanish restaurant, huh?
DJ 3000′ [O/S]: I TRIED. YOU’D THINK A CITY AS LARGE AS LOS ANGELES WOULD HAVE A FEW THAT WOULD BE CONVENIENTLY LOCATED ALONG YOUR DIRECTION OF TRAVEL TOWARDS THE STUDIO.
PRODUCER: It’s cool, at least France is still in the tournament. This should probably be my last stop before I see you guys face-to-face.
DJ 3000′ [O/S]: WHAT’S THE HURRY? YOU KNOW THE MUSEUM OF JURASSIC TECHNOLOGY IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER OR…
A platter of steak frites is set in front of the PRODUCER.
DJ 3000′ [O/S]: …YOU COULD JUST STICK AROUND HERE FOR THE GAME, AT LEAST.
PRODUCER: [begins munching on some fries] Yeah that’s not the worst idea I’ve ever heard.
DJ 3000′ [O/S]: SPEAKING OF IDEAS, HAVE YOU GOT ANY FOR REQUEST LINE?
PRODUCER: Man, not really, I…
The PRODUCER trails off as four fashionable young women walk into the restaurant, chattering with each other and laughing.
DJ 3000′ [O/S]: OH HEY THAT’S A GOOD ONE.
PRODUCER: It’s what now?
DJ 3000′ [O/S]: FEMALE QUARTETS. WE’RE LOOKING FOR SONGS BY BANDS THAT CONSIST PURELY OF FOUR WOMEN.
PRODUCER: [still trying to covertly ogle the women] Oh, okay, sure. Seems like it might be a little thin. Is it okay if it’s three women and a guy?
DJ 3000′ [O/S]: YEAH, I GUESS SO. [console lights flash as he runs a quick calculation] MAYBE WE SHOULD JUST SAY THE GROUP MUST INCLUDE AT LEAST FOUR MEMBERS, AND IT HAS TO CONSIST OF MORE WOMEN THAN MEN.
PRODUCER: Sounds good to me. And it’s bonus points for actual female quartets. Mind if I get us rolling?
DJ 3000′ [O/S]: SURE THING.
PRODUCER: DJ 3000′, cue up a little something from the Breeders. On three…two…one…
Today’s theme is “Girls on Top”. We’re looking for songs from bands whose lineups are dominated by women. Please post links as “https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4dY45hL3y5F4uLt” and they should embed in the comments after you refresh. Last week’s puzzle answer of “Grass” by XTC was requested by scotchnaut but Gumbygirl recognized it as the puzzle answer and triumphantly claimed the credit. Enjoy Spain-Belgium today folks, and once again please feel very strongly encouraged to use today’s post as an open thread for discussion of the match.
