For today’s off-the-books, unintentionally extended edition of Turtles Have Short Legs on Freeform Portland, I chucked out the show description and played two hours of “songs with bridges,” (mostly) guitar(-based) pop. That said, there was no 6PM DJ, so the extra hour went more along the lines of the prog/folk/kosmische/krautrock that the show was supposed to feature.
