500 Days

Another fictive milestone, as I just recently passed the 500 day mark in terms of audio tracks listened to through my iTunes. The (not so) momentous event happened just yesterday (April 11, 2020) at approximately 1:40 in the morning, as I was just finishing listening to “The Joan Fuller Murder Case”, an episode of the radio show Broadway Is My Beat, which aired originally (as far as the admittedly ‘sort of’ information available to me can tell me), back in 1950 on November 17th. Maybe that’s right, maybe that’s wrong, relying on stuff you read on the Interwebs is always a little sketchy. All I know for sure is, it’s a good show, worth a listen, and this episode was okay, I think.

I’m using the image of the Hillbilly tape box because a) I don’t have an image for Larry Thor’s show (he’s the star of Broadway Is My Beat”) and b) after all I have listened to that Elvis Hitler album as part of my 500 days of music and other audial … stuff. Naturally, 500 days only represents the time it would take to listen to every track
I’ve heard through iTunes if you listened to them back to back, no breaks between songs (and other). Of course, I’ve heard many songs more than once … but who’s counting?

Excelsior! On to the next 500 days … one song at a time. Not sure I’ll make it that far (I don’t even have that much tune left in my library), but if I do, it’ll be after August of next year. Hopefully by that point things will begin to clear up.
