Unless you live in Pittsburgh, PA, you might not realize this, but...

[Orrex]

Outside of AC-DC, Aerosmith, Guns-n-Roses, Mötley Crüe, and Lez Zeppelin, there is no music in the whole entire world. And don't even think of criticizing Donny Iris.


There. I said it.

1. if you're talking about FM radio, then i'll agree

FM is crap here. 102.5 plays the same shit over & over, and the "modern rock" channels are even worse (i hate modern alterna-whatever crap).

there's a good underground live rock/punk scene here, though. that shouldn't be discounted.

2. Yeah, I should have specified FM radio

And I should have further specified my cubemate's radio. 102.5 all day, every day.

I like 91.3 for the most part, even if it suckles too much at the three-pronged teat of Wilco, Whiskey Town, and Patti Smith.

88.3 is pretty good, too, though wildly uneven.

3. urgh

i feel sorry for ya, having to listen to that all day like that.

102.5 (WDVE) is so predictable in what they play, it's ridiculous. once in a great while they'll play something that they haven't played 1,000,000 times already that week, but mostly it's the same shit over & over. i did hear them play an obscure track from "exile on main st." recently, for what it's worth.

i just stock the car with CDs and only listen to the radio for traffic & weather.

6. Too much! Too much!

AC-DC's compelling venture into existential philosophy, "Who Made Who" is now airing for the second time in as many hours.

I'm going to weep.

4. At least it's not 104.7

Is that the one that's all right-wing talk now?

I think that might be worse.

[Orrex]

5. Yeah, I should count my blessings.

I'd leap from the roof if I had to listen to that asshole Rose.

7. You forgot Skynard, jagoff!

[Orrex]

8. Whitesnake, too. I don't know what I was thinking (n/t)

[JVS]

9. I've always thought that Pittsburgh should have a public radio station...

that plays classic 70's and 80's rock. I think the public would support it
