Hits N' Giggles (Gen X Files)

By: hits N' giggles
  • Summary

  • Do you know how to save a TDK 90 tape from death by car stereo by using an HB pencil and the patience of a saint? Holy Chiko Rolls and fluoro socks, have we got a show for you! Hits N' Giggles is the comical intersection of 2 (only slightly tragic) music lovers with an answering machine full of memories and stories to share… Where pop meets grunge meets hair metal and novelty rap… Where the Bus Stop meets the mosh pit meets the Macarena... Hits N' Giggles is for Gen X and Y, those who remember 3XY, and those who love them. Cheekily nostalgic, frequently geeky and oftentimes hilarious.
