SL Memorial Day Miscellaneous

Heaven knows if this will be a tradition, because this took ... well it took a little more effort than it takes to unscrew a new bottle of kimchee

Again, this covers the ludicrous and arbitrary time period from last June through this May. And of course, we make no warranty that the music actually was relevant during the above time period, all it is is a capsule of the music that has been cool to us this past non-calendar year

With that said ...
