THIS IS A BIRTHDAY PONY
Hi everyone it's time for my traditional birthday week show where I just play my favorite songs!
This was a bit more of a thrill when I did a purely themed show and didn't do at least an hour of whatever I want to play every week! But it's still fun to trot out old (and new!) favorites.
Next year I might start a new birthday tradition. Any ideas? Drop em in the chat!

when i played this on my first birthday show one of the monitors in the studio was broken so it was just half the stereo mix
Commie Francis (host)
2:15:00 PM
you can imagine the stereo separation on this is pretty extreme, it sounded very weird but kinda cool

Happy Birthday Commie. A couple themes, maybe not replacing your current brithday practice...music you've changed your opinion about (either used to dislike but now like, and/or the converse)...music that has some special or poignant connotation for you.
Commie Francis (host)
2:24:07 PM
i like that idea Mike! i don;t think i'd play music i don't like but i like the idea of music i've come around to!
Commie Francis (host)
2:24:48 PM
and thanks Pat! You've been hanging at airports a lot lately!

Some self-indulgence on birthdays is certainly allowed.
Commie Francis (host)
