What songs do you want to hear for today's coffee break?

Over the weekend it was revealed that U2's Bono always wears sunglasses, not because he's too cool, but because he suffers from glaucoma. There are many musicians infamous for wearing sunglasses who don't have a medical reason behind their signature shades. We want to play songs from those guys (or ladies).

What songs from serial (but unnecessary) sunglass wearers should we play for today's 9:30 Coffee Break? Give us your suggestions and we'll put together a play for today's theme.

Don't forget to sign up to win a Coffee Break on the Road. This month we'll be picking up Peace Coffee and treats from Birchwood Cafe. Local music man Mark Mallman will provide some live music for the Coffee Break on Oct. 31. Email to enter: CoffeeBreak@TheCurrent.org
