February's RC Meeting :: Recap

Despite the small turnout, this month's RC was truly heartfelt. While Darcey and Veronica couldn't attend, they submitted their songs pre-meeting via email. Here's what Veronica had to say about this month's theme: "I've really been looking forward to this one - the theme is SO good! Well, I've planned my funeral songs for as long as I can remember. Morbid, perhaps, but an important decision nonetheless!"

The mix will be uploaded soon. Until then, here's a list of what everyone brought:

  2. You know what else is a great funeral song? "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen, but the Jeff Buckley version. OOh, it's too bad I can't be alive at my own funeral to witness this playlist!!

  3. Dear Veronica-
    I will send a videotape of your funeral to you in the afterlife. Just look for a package, c/o the Morbid Crazy Person.
