Stuck In Thee Garage #632: May 15, 2026

When you start thinking about the passage of time too closely, it can get a little overwhelming. For example, it has been 45 years since 1981, which is kinda nuts, but when you realize that 45 years before THAT was 1936, that's really unnerving. All of which is to say I played songs from 1981 in hour 2 of Stuck In Thee Garage this week (after playing new music from Drakulas, Conscious Pilot, Cola and the Lemon Twigs in hour 1). It's most definitely o-tay!
