It's not Dick Clark's Rockin' New Years Eve, but this ride will do well for anyone in a pinch, if you need some background for your Pre-New Years Eve party. All songs related to specific years this lap around the calendar with Hank and Dan. Included: A Darky from Emi SunShine, another history lesson from Al Stewart, The Bee Gees with one you didn't even know you knew, a cycnical-per-usual track from Louden Wainwright III and an ironic twist on a famous pop song that suddenly doesn't sound that bad once you find out it contains a well placed 'F' bomb.

None of the songs in this show seem to belong together when you see it on paper, but once it hits your ears it all comes together like a fresh flowing stream of melted snow. Included: Cities punkers Big Salt, Floydian slipper David Gilmore, Middle aged angster John Mellenclamp, Deep/dry Cheese Head comedian Mary Mack, a cute little animal-murder-fantasy ditty from local folker, Pat Egen, and more...as if you need it.

Take a soul melting ride on the coldest night of the winter with friends of the show Charlie Parr and Erik Koskinen, live, in studio for some collaborative musical magic and more. This nearly 2 hour web version contains tons of extra dialogue not heard on the radio, and that always seems to be where the best stories emulate and incubate from. It's a special ride like no other, don't miss this one!

This solo ride is for all the single tom cats trying to pedal their way into a tender hearted conversation and reaching for a soft hand to hold in time to defeat another otherwise dark Valentines Day. Tip: Better like you some Tom Waits.
