Day 04: National Cheese Day

This compilation from 1969 would have worked well for Dare Day as well. Side 3 starts off with 25 seconds of Tiny Tim laughing, and, then goes into the Mothers of Invention "The Voice of Cheese".

I almost spun "Uncle Meat", the album that track is taken from.

Day 4: National Doughnut Day

Coincidentally I had a few doughnuts earlier today. Two of them were chocolate, the other was plain with vanilla frosting and sprinkles. On that note...

I’ve never been overly lucky when it comes to splatter records...

I usually try to save the "on the nose" spins for members that don't have a lot of choices.

I have time to spin maaaaaaybe one album a day, and I haven't wanted to listen to anything that meets the themes. Should I just start inventing connections?

The only connection that matters is when the needle hits the vinyl.

Yes, think outside the box. I almost played jerry Garcia on bike day because he’s associated with LSD and Albert Hoffman (person who discovered LSD) took a bike ride on his first trip. Haha

What are you trying to say??

(Ignore the fact that I'm the guy who played Donuts for doughnut day.)

Oh, yes please! I like to invent connections, it's fun. For example to day is Earth day, the Earth is 70% water, water is blue, so Joni Mitchell - Blue will work!

Absolutely! We all stretch connections at times. Sometimes a lot, just to play what we feel like. It can be pretty fun to see what comes out with the creativity.
