    Bootleggers Beware: November 29, 2025 - Saying Good Bye To The Radiator

    November 29, 2025 marks Bootleggers Beware's final episode aired live on The Radiator in Burlington, VT. Our whole family joined in celebration of the 15 years we've spent together on Saturdays. I would like to take this opportunity to express my deepest thanks and gratitude to each and every one of you who have shared your Saturdays with me over the last 15 years. As I've said many times before: I am humbled and honored that you have chosen to share your Saturday with me, whether for one show, a hundred, or five hundred.I would also like to thank our friends at Big Heavy World and The Radiator for allowing me to make my radio dream a reality. Without them, their support, and the artistic freedom they've allowed me, Bootleggers Beware would not be what it is.  It has been and is my pleasure to share my love of live music with you every week, and I look forward to the day that we can pick up where we're leaving off.While I am unsure what the future holds for return of the live broadcast of Bootleggers Beware, I will continue to keep music and photos flowing from our Facebook page.For now, thank you all for your support and continued listenership over the years. It means the world to me. This week's setlist, curated heavily by my father, Peter Mickel: Heartbreaker: Led Zeppelin - The Song Remains The Same King of The World: Steely Dan - The Sopwith Camel Running Down A Dream: Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Saratoga Performing Arts Center Statesboro Blues: Allman Brothers Band - Fillmore East '71South California Purples: Chicago - Carnegie Hall CompleteFlirtin' With Disaster: Molly Hatchet - Royal Oak Music TheaterMortal Dread: The Darkness - Brooklyn Bowl Sympathy For The Devil: The Rolling Stones - Carter-Finley StadiumWon't Get Fooled Again: The Who - Live At The Oval 1971Ramble On: Led Zeppelin - Celebration DayDazed And Confused: Led Zeppelin - Celebration DayI'm A Man: Chicago - Texas International Pop Festival My Old School: Steely Dan - Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion Low Spark of High Heeled Boys: Traffic - Cleveland Public Hall Already Gone: The Eagles - Giants Stadium Faster: Matt Nathanson - Irving Plaza Whipping Post: Gov't Mule - Beacon Theatre Rocky Mountain Way: Joe Walsh - Irvine Meadows AmphitheaterAll The Way From Memphis: Mott The Hooble - Santa Monica Civic Auditorium Stairway To Heaven: Led Zeppelin - The Song Remains The SameTime: Pink Floyd - Orange Bowl Sunshine of Your Love: Cream - Winterland Ballroom Perpetual Change: Yes - Inglewood Forum Empty Pages: Traffic - Paris TheaterRoundabout: Yes - Oakland Coliseum
