On this weeks Special Critics Pick Edition of The Local Show host Dave Campbell is joined in studio by five local music writers and critics Chris Riemenschneider of the Star Tribune, Ross Raihala of the Pioneer Press, Andrea Swenson from Citypages, Carl Atiya Swanson of Cakein15, and Jeff Marshall of switchbladecomb. The Critics spun their favorite local singles and discussed favorite music moments of 2010 and shard their predictions for what's to come in 2011. This was great look at the past year with a bunch of folks who pay very close attention.
