Episode 54:: Indie Wedding Cast-offs

One of the coolest parts of planning a wedding is making up huge lists of music you might like to incorporate into your special day. If you happen to like things outside the mainstream, this has the dual benefit of giving you a platform to share your favorites with people who may not already know of them. Conveniently, this is the same premise of this webradioblog.

The worst part, then, of picking music for a wedding, is whittling down the number of options to only a small handful, and ultimately one "first dance" tune. That this must be done as a team (at least, until they invent same-self marriage) further complicates the issue - though probably for the better.

And what to do with all those other cool songs that just weren't quite right for the wedding itself? Just let them rot in one person's iTunes refuse bin? Not when you have your own webradioblog.
