This is the Halloween edition of the Far Side of Country. For this show I used an internet music streaming site (Grooveshark. It has what appears to be an unlimited catalogue of songs), and unfortunately on several occasions it took what seemed like hours to load the song. Because of this you will encounter several uncomfortably long periods of dead air (probably not more than 30 seconds in the most extreme case). If you listen closely you can hear me sigh in frustration several times.

Enjoy,

YES! I started the recording before the actual beginning of the show. Look, when you have low standards the little victories matter. There is a bit of echo in the first few minutes of the show. I was able, thanks to an email from Mike King, to get the problem fixed by the second song.
