Remember that scene in the movie PCU, where Pigman -- who's writing his senior thesis on the Caine-Hackman Theory (that at any given moment a movie starring either Michael Caine or Gene Hackman can be found on TV) -- realizes "A Bridge Too Far" is on?
"Caine and Hackman in the same movie. This is my thesis, man! This is my closing argument! I CAN STOP WATCHING TV!"
Well, I'm not going to stop watching T.V., but I recently had a similar feeling when I realized Beverly Hills, 90210 once featured the song "She's Like the Wind" in an episode. Patrick Swayze, West Beverly High ... somewhere in the vortex of that moment this whole Barrelhouse project started to make sense.
