Stuck In Thee Garage #314: March 27, 2020

Sometimes when things aren't so great in the here and now, it's fun to look back through the past. Things are especially crappy right now, so on Stuck In Thee Garage this week, I played songs from 1980 in hour 2. We didn't have no stinkin' coronaviruses to worry about back then, but there was the eruption of Mount St. Helens, the invention of Post-It Notes and the Rubik's Cube and the U.S. men's hockey team knocking off the heavily favored Russians. And a certain Man of Steel met his match:
