Okay people, it is time for me to come clean. Here it is: I don’t like the Beatles. Yes, I have some of their music in my collection. Yes, I understand that they were prolific writers whose music impacted everything that came afterwards. However, I can’t help but switch the channel every time one of their songs comes on the classic rock radio station. There it is.
You know Zep is better, so don’t front.
You have no idea what a radio wasteland this area is. If I didn’t want to listen to Hotel California 38 times a day, the other option is to listen to some damn Green Day song 56 times a day. Oh yes, as of yesterday one of the “new alternative” radio stations became El Zol, all Latin music, which I find hilarious. At the times I am usually listening to the radio (to and from work), the local sometimes-jazz station runs a political propaganda call-in show, and smooth jazz is usually too insipid for me to listen. Luckily I usually have my MP3 player with me so it’s not that big a deal.
No college radio up there? It may suck from time to time, but at least it’s a different and new suck and you at least get something new to consider. I gave up or corporate radio long ago.
