Dear Friend and Listener: Welcome to the traditional Planet Waves New Year's Eve broadcast for 2016 [play episode here], featuring the music of the Grateful Dead. We offer this program annually to listeners who are at home for the last night of the year. Eric also considers the events of 2016 and the current astrology, including Mars conjunct Neptune. (Don't forget: if you are going out at any point tonight, make sure you have a designated driver!)

R. R. Tolkien special for this coming Tuesday but has opted to take an extremely rare week off from Planet Waves FM in service of working on The Book of Your Life. Planet Waves FM will be back on Tuesday, Jan. 10 with the Mercury direct special. Thank you for your company throughout this year, and we wish you a happy and peaceful 2017.
