But that's not all! Because i like you, i've included some bonus songs in each show, five for the first and TWELVE for the second! To find out the names of the extra bands and their respective tracks, download the mp3 and, in iTunes or whatever you use, go the the Lyrics section of the track. There you will find the complete playlist.
Or, you can just ask me. But this way is more fun.
Enjoy! And keep an eye out for this week's show... i'm certain i will have it edited and ready to go within the week!
p.s. Also, the St. Patrick's Day show. Major recording issues with that one, might take a while to get it ready for human ears. Stay tuned.
