A holly-daze favor please … I don’t usually do fund raisers for the Colorado Playlist .. but it’s not free to keep going, and I’m mostly retired now, so the costs are really eating into my retirement money. I’m happy to accept donations via Venmo at chrisk-2, I’d be honored if you’d purchase the only holly-daze single I’ve ever released (name your own price) or use the donation form below. Thank you …
Every year I debut (D) approximately two hundred new current-year songs. Every week I have to make decisions about what to keep to play again and what to archive.
Let me know what you think of the debuts (D) I shared in the show this week. Results enter into determining which cuts stay in the library and which cuts might eventually make it to the annual Colorado Playlist Fan & Listener Poll and the “some of the best of the year” show.
Cross country and in-state moving + storage. Located in Fort Collins.
