I am still doing playlists for Opening Night mementos, believe it or not. I keep thinking that I will give up—both because I’m not sure anyone is really enjoying them except Your Humble Blogger, but also because I’m not sure anyone these days plays playlists on a physical medium, such as makes a memento. A DM with a link to a Spotify list is not the same thing at all.
Still, I like making them and that’s enough reason for now. For those of you who are following along at home, here’s the playlist inspired by my observation that at heart Waiting for Godot is a play about hats.
