April 11, 2010: The Strombo Show Playlist (& G12 Count Down)

Since I mentioned prior that people were having problems viewing things on the updated Strombo.com website ... since it is in Flash...

I'll be putting up the last couple playlists (& G12 Count Down lists) on here. If it seem like a popular thing to have up here too, I'll keep it up.

I also have playlists dating back into last year, etc and possibly older, so over time I will hunt those down, chat with some of the long time listeners of the show & get their lists and put those older ones up here for people to go back through the various playlists for the show!
