Live Ledge #80: Life Story (Pt. 1)
Instead of crying about my age (although tears have been shed), I decided to be self-indulgent and turn it into not one but two shows. Tonight's show, along with Sunday's Rural Ledge-ucation, are the story of my life. Starting off with that fatal day where a screaming little brat was born in a Midwest hospital while at the same time four scruffy lads from Liverpool were putting the final touches on their first single, part one of the series concludes as I was close to my mid-30's. There is a song on this show to represent every year up to 1994, and includes glam, punk, power pop, folk-rock, and every other temporary trend that whose bus I leaped onto.
Sunday's show will take off from where I left off, with tracks from 1994 to a song that will be released on my birthday later this week. Combined, there will be almost four hours of songs that I have been obsessed with most of my life. Grab this show from the usual online locations, whether it is iTunes, Stitcher, or...
