Mass O' Playlists 11/11-12/16

First of all, apologies for having abandoned this for a few weeks in favor of myspace.com/popacount. Not sure how or why that happened- I don't even like myspace particularly- I promise to be better. And I 'll make it up to you with a slew of great links before the year is out! The playlist at bottom featured a Matt Pond interview-- check out the songs he requested. We also have an all-vinyl show included...

BTW, if you're with a band or label that would like to receive airplay, drop me a note! You can stream (and/or download) a show for up to a week following the live airing at wunh.org. Those in between Portland, ME and Lynn, MA (and Portsmouth to Manchester) can listen at 91.3 FM.
