The Seattle area was getting inundated with snow, so every song in this mix was pulled from a playlist of tracks with titles that included the word “snow”, “winter”, “cold”, “froze”, or “ice”. Otherwise unrehearsed and unplanned, all done on the fly.

Difficult Listening Hour 2021.01.09
Unrehearsed, seat-of-the-pants, let’s-see-what-happens mixing. This week ended up being (nearly) all ’80s alternative. Some of my favorite classics in here, and some transitions that I’m quite happily surprised by. Enjoy!
Difficult Listening Hour 2020.10.03
Week thirty of my unplanned, unrehearsed, seat-of-the-pants goofing around. As a way of getting back into practice and doing something regularly, I’ve started doing regular Twitch broadcasts, now on Saturday afternoons. These are the results. Anything goes.

This may be considered a dumb question, but…
Basically, looking for info on just what kind of music Psychic TV is. I got a shirt a while back only because I thought it was great (person with bird’s head mask holding a naked woman upside down by a knife through the foot, says “Some have to dance, some have to kill” on the back), and someone recently told me it was a Psychic TV shirt.
Now am curious about PTV…well, have been for a while (it’s a name I keep seeing), but now more so…have a wierd thing, don’t like promoting bands I know nothing about, or have no music of. So…
Anyway, info would be appreciated…along with any suggestions of what to pick up from these folks, should I choose to.
Of course, it’s still an awesome shirt…
