About the Blarrrg: Hey there! This feature allows you to get the daily inside scoop on what's happening with The Showgram. Captain Carl (get it? It's a pirate thing...) will deliver the goods, including morning show reviews, commentary and inside info. • Complete Blarrrg Archives: click here. • Blarrrg FAQ: click here.
These are the songs I played today. No, we cannot make a copy of them for you. No, they are not on a single CD. Some are commercially available, others are not. I tried to put the artists’ names when I could. Some of the classic rock parodies are from Bob River’s Twisted Christmas CDs.
And, no, we cannot make a copy of them for you. Please don’t e-mail – I’ll just have to delete it because I cannot help you out.
Sorry.
