I was out of town for this last episode, but I was in full control, having pre-recorded the entire thing ahead of time.  Big ups to Brother Dan from The Smoking Lounge for pushing all the buttons when they needed pushing.

I put less thought towards the selection this week as well, but I’m very happy with the way it turned out.  Essentially, I went through my library and pulled out a bunch of my most played tracks, along with a few newer sides that I like.  I ended up with more instrumentals than usual and a few unplanned themes reveled themselves as the show progressed.

As always the episode is online for two weeks at STL’s Program Page at KDHX.org
