In which I change my mind

I've decided to go ahead and post the eighties setlist. I started The Shotgun Shack partly to make myself spend more time working with my soul and blues libraries, with the idea that the more I did so, the better DJ I'd be in the dance scene. When you get down to the very basics, though, the reason I DJ here or at dances is because I love music.

I *love* music. And I love sharing that music with others, and maybe turning them on to things they've never heard. It's always rewarding when people come up to me at gigs to ask about a song I played. It seems, then, against the spirit of sharing the music to not post the one-day eighties setlists. I'm keeping them separate from the regular playlists via a different label, but without further ado, here is the first Irregular! Eighties! Friday! set. I hope you dug it.

Look for a new set of funk & soul music to go up on Sunday or Monday.
