Sonic Overload 11/22/10

I took another week off from politics... definitely skewing towards older songs on this show, including a few songs for Thanksgiving and a few commemorating the 47th anniversary of John F. Kennedy’s assassination. And it got me to thinking that the terrible band Texas Is The Reason took their name from a line in the Misfits “Bullet.” But I won’t blame the Misifts for Texas Is The Reasons’ sins against music.

Next week, I’ll be doing the first all-covers show since 2008 so make sure you check it out. It’ll be a lot better than this week’s show...
