I had a strange incident recently involving Cheap Trick.
I told a buddy I was going to Tokyo the next day and he asked what I had planned and I told him the only thing on my agenda was to go to the Budokan building to give thanks for that Cheap Trick live album (we had gone to see them in concert on that tour like 30 years ago and we both have awesome memories of that night and I thought that was a funny reply to him).
So after I wrote that reply I decided to download that Live at Budokan album as it must be like 20 years since I last listened to it and must of played the song Surrender over and over 10 times in a row while I was researching things to do in Japan for my trip the next morning.
I stopped playing the song to put on the TV as it was the premier of the new Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien. And bang, a minute into the show, they play the entire length of the song Surrender while Conan is running across the country to LA.
Surrender is some obscure song from the 70's so I thought the coincidence of me discussing it and playing it and then turning on the TV to see it played during the premier of the new Tonight Show was wild.
