It's easy to look back a few decades wistfully, especially when the world is as nuts as it is right now. Take 1997, for example. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played songs from '97 in hour 2. It's hard not to love a year that brought us movies as ridiculous as Face/Off, Con Air, The Fifth Element and Lost Highway. Oh, and if you don't listen to this week's show, the bunny gets it.
