Oh, It's Halloween? October 31 Playlist!

I awoke this morning realizing that it's Halloween and I didn't have a scary show planned! I don't do a lot of planning for my Wednesday morning shows, but I do have a pretty good idea of what I'm going to play. I put my "game plan" away and tried to intermingle some scary-ish songs today. I hope you enjoyed it!

October 24, 2012 Playlist!

This morning I learned something cool about Led Zeppelin's D'yer Mak'er - according to Wikipedia the title of this song is actually pronounced Jamaica! I seriously learn something every day. I also learned that the name I would like to use for a music twitter page is already taken! Ack! So do I register another name or do I wait for this person to be inactive for soooo long that it comes up? This is a decision that has to be made, albeit a very small decision. Happy winter everyone!
