I agree, it rocked!  Long live XPN and public radio.. I made a tape 
of it, and hopefully I'll make mp3's sometime.. I make no promises 
though.

They also played Eddie Walker to start it off, and a little of the 
nutcracker theme.  And I wish he would have played the "ballad 
version of One Angry Dwarf" in its entirety.  That woulda been 
hilarious.
