All Request Show #2

theitalianboxer@yahoo.com (Vinnie) — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 15:05:00 -0600

I'm finally done with the show! These take me a while because I have to wrangle up all the songs first then edit the show. But I think you've all made a good one.

Thanks to everyone that contributed a song for the world to hear. Please keep in mind that my friends/listeners come from all different genres of music so this show is a little all over the place. But I think that's okay, it's okay to rock something new once in a while.

So dial it up and listen to the favorite songs of: Alex, Andy, Brian, Diana, Erica, Jen, Jill, Joe Murphy, Kelli, Lauren W, Mark W, Norm, PAF (kinda...), Paul G, Robin, and Zack!
