MTV Get Off the Air
While at work I have the option of listening to several local stations that broadcast more mainstream fodder and witless banter than I want to hear in a day. Brain numbing bullshit. The pop station is just annoying to no end. The 'rock' station has gone all emo/sissy, wanna be tough guy, but soft and sensitive.The soul station could put a meth-head to sleep. No one in the shop will listen to any radio talk shows for fear that it will make them think. So this leaves us with the classic rock station. Yeah, Don Henley, Sammy Hagar, and constant repeating loop of hair bands. Great, I can hardly contain my enthusiasm. They do however have a couple hours per night of "total listener requests". So, I call to make a request. A simple request. Motorhead, Ace of Spades. What could be hard about that. But much to my dismay I was denied. I said " You don't have Motorhead?". The deejay replied with "Yeah, we can't play that on the air." Now this is bullshit becuase I've heard other stations inthe area. A couple minutes later my boss calls in and requests Dokken. Sure thing, they got Dokken. Oh yeah, they will play that crap. To make it more irritating, they play it like three songs later. Assholes.greasemonkey1320 at 2:17 PM

Shit,I think Lemmy is something like 55. I think for the next presidential election we should vote him in. Makes me wonder if he would raise the mic up real high for the state of the union address.

I'd totally vote for that.
I don't listen to radio. I'd rather shoot myself.
The joy of burning CDs...that's what I've got in life!
