The great philosopher Thomas Keifer once wrote, "Don't know what you got till it's gone." That was certainly the case with the year 2008, which seemed like a big pile of dung at the time, but in retrospect, doesn't look so bad now. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played songs from 2008 in hour 2 and it was quite an enjoyable set of rock jams if I do say so myself.
It was the kind of year that said, "How do you do, fellow kids?"
