So, it’s an animals on wax special. Songs with animals in the title or band name. I know how to party. It’s rough and ready, not fixed anything and if you listened live, you got a bonus 3 songs. I was going to edit them in but I thought “you should have been there”. Shout out to Phillie B for giving me the idea of a theme within a theme.

As always though, get in touch with requests, recommendations and guest mix inquiries!
