Playlist for 4-4-13

Happy friday, folks!

Did you guys know it was supposed to rain this morning? I didn't. Nor did the weather app on my phone. Which made this morning's 12 mile bike ride to work a hair less pleasant than it normally is. But it's cool. Having a stripe of Santa Ana road-dirt on your ass is a good look, right? The "just shit yourself" look is in, I heard.

Anyway.

Here's the playlist for last night's show. My friend Marisa joined me for her first ever time behind the mic and we played a wonderful little array of tunes. Hopefully you enjoy it.

And if you were so inclined, there's a recording of the most of the show here. Follow along at home.
