Dirty ... Rocketface *
Queens Will Play ... Black Mountain *
Somethings On The Move ... Jethro Tull

Tired of Myself ... Grand Baton (been trying to get this on the playlist FOREVER)
Touch the Ground ... Cactus Vella *
Baby Jane ... Christian D and the Hangovers *
Dream Vision ... Lachlan Horne (new)
Try Not To Thing Too Much ... The Nonsense *

WAY too much music. Tune in and see what makes the final cut...

Thanks for listening.

Hey everybody,

Good grief, what happened? We are into the home stretch for winter and walking around in shorts one minute (yes, I saw a guy in shorts this week) and then pushing the shovel around the very next day.
I give up.
Fortunately, there is music to keep those of us with little patience in a positive place.
Enjoy!
