12-12-12 playlist/ 80s with Chris DeMay

Gee I wasn't even thinking I had to do something special for 12/12/12 but there I was last night playing one 70s album track to start each set. Just an idea that hit me the preceding week. It was fun playing some stuff that normally I wouldn't think fits the Showgram. Chris DeMay of WMSE/ Juniper Tar was a fine guest on the 80s segment spinning some of his favorites from the decade.

It was a slow and quiet night at the station Wednesday, which I guess was OK but can get to be sort of dull. I did my best, though. The 80s theme was brought to you by the letters G, H and I from my collection.
