Hiya, always have a look at your playlists,  five hours is not easy, have done it myself and longer. I bet you don't sit at home organising your playbox.  I know people who fret about a 45 minute spot. Well done,  cheers

Actually, I DO sit at home and organize the box...I want everything in alpha order by artist so I can easily find stuff. I'm very much anal about that. The only things I don't keep in alpha order are my '3 before 3', which I keep at the end of the box (Travis Wammack, Continental Four and Dean Parrish).

Best,

Mark
