Well, another first for the Marsden Theatre tonight, this time the first Sunday show. Unfortunately, I missed a good chunk of the show tonight, so many thanks again to miss parker for covering much of this show and compiling a good part of the playlist.

Here's a minor announcement for you!! The shift of the Marsbar Theatre to weekend nights is going to make it very difficult for me to listen in for entire shows as I was generally able to do on Thursday and Friday nights, so regular service around here will be interrupted in the coming weeks. I will do what I can, but it will definitely be at least a 'semi-retirement' of sorts for me from the blog.

I have been thinking about a different focus for the blog - perhaps a focus on just new songs played (links, etc.) (or just songs new to the show or to me) rather than doing the full playlists. I would be very open to suggestions and feedback on alternatives for the blog, or if there are any blog readers that would be willing to help compile playlists, I would be glad to hear from you! So here's the list for the first Sunday (with a few missed songs)
