Stuck In Thee Garage #541: August 16, 2024

You know how 2019 seems like a lifetime ago? Try 1979, when some of us were tweens and others of us weren't, uh, born yet. The technology was primitive, there was lots of crazy strife in the world and people complained about gas prices, but life seemed pretty good to me. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played music from 1979 in hour 2, but it was all stuff that was considered new wave or punk; no disco, AM gold or hard rock. Kicks a fair amount of arse, if you ask me. And if you disagree, well, you're out of order. This whole court's out of order!


This playlist is definitely not out of order:
