2011, Week 13: This week's set and some blog news

OK, let's go with the news first. I'm sure you've noticed the sporadic nature of the "On This Day in Steampunk History" posts I've been making. This is because I was trying to do it all on the fly with no lead time. So here's what I'm going to do instead: I'm going to work ahead. I know, I know, it's a crazy idea and it probably won't work, but I've got to try it. Specifically, I'm going to comb through the various "on this day..." sites & lists that I can find and garner ideas for upcoming days and plan ahead about which events I will be picking & choosing from. Then, once I have a month's events plotted out, I'll start writing the various events up and setting them up to post at the beginning of each day. When I've got one month done, I'll start working on the next month. Hopefully I'll be able to stay ahead this way.

Now that that's out of the way, let's see about listing tonights playlist and setting things up for you to be able to get the various songs for yourself (as much as I can, anyway):
