Playlist for 2008-04-26

Fun show with Brady Rymer and the Little Band that Could at First Churches! Thanks to everyone for coming out, and to Brady and the band (and Bridget!) for putting on such a fun show, even with technical difficulties.

Thanks to The Pop Rockets for guest DJing! The first people to e-mail us (show AT sparetherock DOT com) who live locally (i.e., who are willing to come to downtown Northampton to pick it up) with (a) their favorite spring break activity (or just spring activity, for non-schoolers) and (b) their favorite planet or dwarf planet will get a free copy of the new Pop Rockets CD!

Also, welcome to Amherst Toy Box in their first official week sponsoring the show!
