2359: music, low mod, sounds like "Resident Evil" theme
15331
0014: very gradually strengthening, but still not enough for Shazam to pick out the music titles
0016: "Home Sweet Home" - Mötley Crüe; level finally enough to barely get song ID, 25332
0027: "Learning To Fly" - Tom Petty & Heartbreakers
0031: [2-3]533[2-3], continuing to very gradually improve

0100: EOT

Thank you for the show!

Well, it's come to this: It's midnight and I'm listening to a heavy metal cover version of "The Wheels On The Bus Go Round and Round" on pirate short wave radio on Sternradio. Is life great, or what!?
