Playlist July 16th, 2009: Fire When Ready

I was very excited for this week's show. We got a new digital console to replace our aging analog unit. It's a little too much fun to stand at the console speaking the words: "Fire when ready" then pressing the play button.

Tonight's edition of Metal Beard's Bearded Bands took things in a different direction with: "Why the hell don't you have a beard?" bands. Here's the countdown: 5. High on Fire 4. Hammerfall 3. Fintroll 2. Bathory 1......Manowar!

Regardless of all that, I honestly consider tonight's show as the best The Sledge installment thus far and one of the best shows in my radio career. Thanks to our listeners for calling in!
