End Of The Century

Like Totally 1984 with DJ Miss Kitty

Sat, Nov 23, 2019

The year is 1984: Miss Kitty was just a wee kitten, Reagannomics is a thing, Miami Vice is on TV, the first Apple Macintosh computer was released, and everyone was really really into karate. This week’s End of The Century dives into arguably the best year of the 1980s where pop music was booming–just like Wall Street.
