Friends -- I sent this out earlier but it only had part of the show. Here's the entire extravaganza:

Hey friends -- Got into the station and found an extra hour of unoccupied air time. So enjoy this extended version of Ankeny Twang on Freeform Portland!

Some real old time at the start, then a show of food and fellowship for the second and third hours.

Plus, a live set by Los Lobos, playing at the Aladdin Theater. It starts about four minutes into this link, so don't be deterred by a few minutes of dead air; it'll be worth it!
