Week of October 24th
This was a show of covers (save one unfortunate playing of a request). I hate to go on a diatribe, but I wonder if people listening to my show are actually listening to my show. I said multiple times that my show was a cover show, yet I still got a non-cover request. I know that I do theme programming, but covers are a surprisingly easy thing to get right. I know I have a lot of covers. I know that the station does too. This wasn’t a particularly hard show. Whatever though. It’s now since past, so there’s no reason to get all agitated about it.
The playlist is coming. I’ll put the original artist in parentheses after the song.
