Stuck In Thee Garage #347: November 13, 2020

The thing about getting older is when you look back at certain times in your life, you tend exaggerate your feelings about them, either positively or negatively. For me, 1980 was a pretty good time. I was blissfully ignorant about where life was going to take me, and when you're 12, that's not a bad place to be. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played songs from 1980 in hour 2. 

I also had no idea that about 15 years later, the guy on the right would be the biggest star in Hollywood.


This playlist is not living a double life:
