Morning,
Imagine waking up in 2000, the X-Files' last good season was on, we survived the threat of Y2K, that (unnamed person) was only on reality tv, we all were voting Pedro, and Bowie played Glastonbury. Could you play Changes live from Glastonbury?
Have a great show.

My three fav albums of 2000…or, at least the ones I listened to over and over again: Death Cab, 764-Hero, and the Sunny Day you already played. Can you play the other two?! 🙏🏼
Thanks!

Good Morning!
Last week, Cheryl played a song by the Drop from the Horror Guidelines album and it has been invading my head ever since! Incidentally that was released "in the year 2000!" (I only ever hear that phrase in Andy Richter/Conan voices.)
Whatever happened to that band? I managed to land an album from ebay to scratch that itch, but can't find it much else about the group.
