The radio station stole my record collection

[jon_chaisson]

Channel 92.3 (I mentioned them a few posts back) is currently my favorite station of the moment, even more so than Live 105. I do like Live 105, but they tend to rely on heavy rotation a bit too much (including playing the same Offspring, MGMT and Kings of Leon songs every hour)

This morning, within the last hour on Channel 92.3?
--Joy Division, "Love Will Tear Us Apart"
--Bush, "Everything Zen"
--Depeche Mode, "People Are People"
--REM, "The One I Love"
--The Clash, some album track I've forgotten the name of

And their heavy rotation as of late?
--That cool Great Northern song ("Houses") I went on about previously
--Weezer, "I Want You To"
--that new acoustic Pearl Jam song I've forgotten the name of
--Death Cab for Cutie, "Meet Me at the Equinox"

So yeah...apparently this morning they hacked into my mp3 collection and played that. :p


EDIT: They are now playing a cover of 'Burning Down the House' as done by Tom Jones and (I think) Nina Persson. O_O

So, did they get to any of my shit?

Give it time... ;)

CAN'T!

All kidding aside, that's not gonna happen. If I want airtime, I need to

a) cough up money for a run of 1000 CDs or so and
b) give them all away for free
and
c) hope to recoup on what I sell based on my inevitable saturation airplay.

sadly, radio is not friendly towards mp3s.
