Lockdown 2020: We Be Truckin'! 06/09/2020

Due to the vagaries of patch updates, our previous long-haul job to Italy had to be cancelled. Of course, that won't stop us from doing some more hauling around Italy (and listening to the best Russian internet radio available in the process).

It's a lockdown baby! We're under orders to work from home so here we go!

I have to take issue with the statement Alex made at around 21 min.

The best Tears for Fears song is "Everybody Wants to Rule the World."

Now I'm only 25 min in and I don't know if he corrects this egregious error by the end of the episode, but it needed saying. It may also need a strongly worded correction to the Beastcast.

@alex: Only one of these songs is featured in the 1985 classic film Real Genius.

I'm a bit sad that the job to Milan (where I'm from) was lost but hey, benvenuto to virtual Italy Alex!

I have no idea about the in-game event happening in Genoa (I'm still at the 42' and don't know if you even go there), but if the game reflects real life it has to do to the finishing of the rebuilding of a bridge (it was a major artery for transport on wheels) over a part of the city that collapsed 2 years ago and became a national tragedy; it has now been rebuild and it's supposed to open to traffic at the start of the next month (one of the few good news of 2020 so far)

Plus the cover of Insomnia...man I love that song (the original), it's basically an anthem for me :D

My play sessions in ATS are usually me starting a super-long job and then stopping halfway, then logging back in months later and having an update to the game ruin my previous long haul job.

@alex Have you thought about doing a RB4 setlist of queer bands for Pride Month. Not sure if you have enough songs to fill that out, but it would be cool to see.

That third/fourth? to last song, Porque te vas electronic cover, surely was something. The original is a bit slower Jeanette - Porque Te Vas
