Brent and Rob bring in the neo year (the world’s neo year, not the LMH neo year) with another free play of great video game music.  Brent is sick, but sounds sicker than he actually is, so beware that there is a lot of throat clearing, coughing, and sniffling.  Sorry, the Legacy Music Hour hopes this isn’t too disgusting.  Also, Brent’s brothers, Max and Nicky, who were in town for
