Slowly the yucky-music gremlins are chipping away at the decent music stations here. I came back from a trip recently, for example, only to find that 106.7 had gone country. Ugh.
100.3, which is not really a favorite station by far, but which does occasionally yield a decent song, has begun playing Christmas music.
Thank goodness I have Sirius. I think I'd go mad, otherwise.
Weird thing is, Chicago is starting to sound a little strange to me as well. I used to really enjoy driving through, because they had three hard rock stations which were terrific. Now only one of them remains, and they've gone to a "shuffle" play format. It's just not the same. I haven't heard Disturbed, which is really odd, because Disturbed is a Chicago band.
All the more reason to download more
snapecast episodes, right?

Date: 2006-11-08 01:18 am (UTC)I have xm, and I listen to Ethel mostly. I wish there was another Ethel-type station, though. One is not enough for me, aka constant changer. So I flip between Lucy, Fred, Ethel, Verge and U-Pop because they play Brit alternative sometimes.
Thank Merlin for my iPod! When I first got it, I kept thinking that it was like having your own radio station. *nods* I listen to my iPod in the car. I realised that another car can pick my signal too.
