Memorial Day Weekend Mix 2008
First off, we at MusicUnderFire would like to thank all of the military men and women who gave their lives while in the line of duty. We salute you.
I think this weekend means more to working adults than it does to kids. Sure, the pool opens with its 55 degree water and a little bit colder Italian ice, but for the rest of us, it is all about heading to the beach/lake and dusting off our Jimmy Buffett albums while concocting some heathen brew of utmost delight. We did not forget the all-important grilling out as well.
If any of you do recall, it is this weekend when the roads also start jamming up with our unfaithful 4:00 p.m. departing work comrades, so even when you do leave a few minutes before 5, you won’t be heading anywhere fast.
Lastly, for guys and girls alike, we all get to see who has lost their winter coat and chiseled up for the season ahead. Enjoy the list and if you have any suggestions I would like to hear them. Sorry, I know Sublime and Bruce Springsteen are favorites, but they just didn’t work for this mix. For a chuckle and old time’s sake, I placed Andrew W.K. at the top of this list…
MP3: Andrew W.K. – Party Hard (buy)
MP3: Dirty on Purpose – Girls and Sunshine (buy)

“We do this for the season.”
