Sound Of Plaid episode 2012.04.12: Listener Requests IV
Our Listener Request shows are proving to be the most creative and fun show, both for us and you. Largely thanks to this simple rule:
The Rule: Do NOT request specific songs. Vague concepts only.
We got dozens of requests via Facebook and This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it for everything from soup to empiricism, farm animals, 80's sweater queen, bald women, and mating to the sound of macramé. We did our best to match up the right song to each concept.
