Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from December 20, 2013 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Howdy Uncle M! (Any relation to Auntie Em?)

Now that the techno-overlords at my work have disabled all avenues for streaming music, it's gonna be hard to sneak in even a brief moment of FMU ('cept maybe by phone if it's really dead here). Curses! : /

Will have to be content checking in w/iApp to see what I can look forward to hearing on archive. And of course to read the funniest comment board (along w/Doug's) on FMU. Cheers!
