Stranded In Winter

The Last Tin Can On Earth

First post for Playlist Solutions, so hello all non existent and soon to be readers and listeners. This is a mix my friend Sarah has given me the theme for. I wasn't sure what it meant but yes, here it is.

The Last Tin Can On Earth

TWO BOYS. A TRASH CAN. AND A BASEBALL BAT.

So, my brother gave me this prompt, and honestly, the first thought through my head was Doug. You know, "Drumming on a trash can, strumming on a street light. One little voice is calling me calling me." Yeah. So it started out all innocent. And then I started drinking while I was making it. And it turned into an epic mix about taking drugs, flipping out, breaking shit, and realizing your best friend is in love with you. Who is guy. As are you. SO.....yeah. I have this whole long back story for these people, but it's not really important (to anyone but me). Regardless..... Enjoy!!

Being Chased By An Axe Murderer

MUSIC

 As a 20 something year old adult/child, I tend to stay up too late on the internet. Luckily, I have adult/child friends who do the same. And sometimes, we even talk to each other while we do this! Shocking. It just so happens that tonight we decided to be somewhat productive while we are wiling away the hours. That's right. Productive. On the Internet.

As of right now, my friend Fil and I are making themed mixes, for musical stimulation (and for the lolz). I gave him the prompt "Running From An Axe Murderer. In The Woods." He gave me "The 2010 Hot Air Balloon Landing Festival."

Let the madness begin!
