Lost Music SaloonLost Music Saloon: Feb. 20, 2012: 5-7 p.m.: Presidents’ Day

Welcome to the Presidents' Day edition of the Lost Music Saloon – – songs about our presidents, both general and specific, plus a few political/social tunes to fill things out.

Major "Thank You's!" go out to DJ's Ginger and Dustin for filling in for me over the past two weeks…great job folks!  I always enjoy looking over the playlists of other DJ's who sit in for me from time to time.  More often than not I wind up asking myself "why didn't I think of playing that song?"

Click on 'read more' below to see tonight's playlist.

Enjoy!
