02:22 pm: Updated Playlist
Hello! It's been quite a long time! I've been receiving more requests lately, so I decided to update my playlist, as it's been far to long since I have! I attempted to fit the entire playlist into an LJ cut, but the post was too large, so I just uploaded the text file itself. Feel free to e-mail me with any requests, no matter how large or small, at my e-mail address:

planetaryvista@gmail.com

Here is my updated playlist:

04:18 am: Transition
I'm terribly sorry that I've gone a complete month without rotating! Considering my apparent lack of devotion to rotate on time and a thought I recently had concerning whether I'm actually posting music that people want, I've decided to turn High Wire Sideshow into a request website. Every week I'll post my updated playlist, and then any visitors can send their song requests to my e-mail address:

planetaryvista@gmail.com

I usually check my e-mails twice a day, however there are rare days when I don't have access to a computer. Thus, I'll upload your songs as soon as I can! In any case, start requesting!
