Pop Chart Update

March 22, 2009 · Leave a Comment

The Pop Chart’s not on right now, as you can tell if you’re listening to BSR. Sorry about that. I’ll be posting the Top 40 later on, hopefully; I’m in the middle of a huuuuuuuuuuuuuge project and thought I’d have time to prepare for this week’s countdown but didn’t.

Also, next weekend I’m going to be in Chicago. I thought I’d be around beforehand to pre-record a special show, but thanks to the huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge project I don’t foresee that actually happening. Sorry!
