Usual rules apply
- not a contest or competition
- each day is up to your own interpretation
- try as best as you can to play something that hasn’t been played yet on that day
- don’t worry about falling behind, you can catch up if you miss a day or two
- try to tell a story with each record on why you chose it or why its important to you, I love reading those
