Ok! I wanted to share something special for New Year’s Eve.

I like to ring in the new year with the best party music on planet Earth, so I have lovingly sequenced a 4 hour playlist of exactly that.

Here’s the deal:

Program: 9pm-1am

  • 9pm: Start the playlist at the beginning

  • 9pm-11:59pm: Dance, chat, snack lightly, and enjoy the music at an aggressive and gradually increasing volume

  • 11:59pm-12am: Pause the music and do the countdown

  • 12am: At exactly midnight, start the playlist again at track 49 (Auld Lang Syne) sing along, clink glasses, and cry tears of joy/sadness

  • 12am-1am: Let the music play loudly and dance to the rest of the playlist

  • 1am: Turn off the music, drink a large glass of water and get your ass in bed

Have a safe and happy new year, folks! Sending love to you all and many thanks for being part of whatever the hell it is I’m doing here. Lots more to come in 2025.

Happy New Year
