LMH Mixtape #300: Episode 300! (Live)

The Legacy Music Hour celebrated its big 300th episode in Los Angeles in front of a live crowd of LMH users!  There were of course fun live activities and user interactions, but no LMH episode would be complete without a lineup of banger tracks.  "I'll Keep On Fighting As Long As I Live (Stage 7)" from the X-Men arcade features some fantastic voice samples and as well as a section that sounds quite similar to "Nasty" by Janet Jackson.  There's also so many more great tracks in this 300th mixtape, so both kick back AND jam out!

It's The Legacy Music Hour's big 300th episode!  Recorded live in Los Angeles with a supportive group of users in attendance, Brent, Rob, and Gabe brought some great music to share.  There's also some laughs and some bathroom breaks for Brent, who was sick but pulls through, and some chiming in from some of the audience members.  Even a few people end up in the hot seat.  Plus, Sentimental in San Gabriel performs an old classic.  And if you want the full, uncut experience, which has some pre-show, post-show, and in-between moments, you can check it out at Patreon.com/LegacyMusicHour.  Big thanks to everyone involved and the users for all the years of using!  Full track listing below.
