Mix #117 (Side A)

- A mix a day indeed. Trying a new format of posting a 45 minute mix a day for your listening pleasure; still fits nicely on one side of a tape.
- The Justin Vernon song is amazing; something so sincere in his voice.
- The Afghan Whigs cover is one of strangest things I've ever heard, but intriguing all the same.
- I miss Anberlin. Excited to see what they've been working on.

Mix #116: "T.G.I.F."

- The 90's place a special feeling in my heart; youth was still in full effect (at least for me). The music was amazing; full of bands I still cherish to this day. Every artist on this list was not only great in their heyday, but are still great to this day.
- I've toyed around with the idea of making a part two of the 90's mix. Any feedback and suggestions as always is more than welcome.
- Be good to teach other.
