PLAYLIST FOR “HELLO, I MUST BE GOING” SEASON FINALE 6.28.25

29 Jun

Last show of the season. It always makes me sad for the music I haven’t played, the musical themes I never got to, the bad jokes I never made. Guess the audience lucked out on that third thing. As I have for the past 15 years, I handed out summer listening assignments. Have a great summer, everyone! And if the world is still here and we still have a country, you should be hearing from me in September.

For some reason I seem to be in “get out of Dodge mode” these days. Can’t imagine why. So I played a couple hours of songs about famous addresses, songs with lyrics about famous addresses, and songs recorded at famous addresses.  I especially liked playing Steven Pasquale singing the new national anthem of ICE – On The Street Where You Live. All in all, I think I addressed the topic pretty well.

Everyone loved Orange Is The New Black.
