Re: What song are you listening to right now?
1776"We have met the enemy and he is us." Pogo.

I used to run to Depeche Mode when I was a young airman in England. Seems I nearly always hit 'Blasphemous Rumours' on a downhill section - thinking that if I fell I'd sound like the pots and pans going down the stairs brought a grin.HuckleberryFun wrote: Fri Oct 12, 2018 1:33 pm Policy of Truth by Depeche Mode.
I don’t have the all black clothes anymore, but I still have the music.
Remembering a time when I was almost kind of cool. Kinda. (OK, not really)
If it's at the low end of the dial it could be a college or "pirate" station. Some public radio stations do stuff like that too...always at the low end of the dial.K9s wrote: Thu Feb 14, 2019 7:29 pm We have this oddball FM station here that I found by accident. Other people have "found" it, too. They play all kinds of music from the 80s, 90s, and up - but nothing you would generally hear on commercial stations. They have no commercials. It is bizarre. It seems to be only used for live sporting events (everything from HS football to MLS and college basketball). When there is no sportsball broadcast, they just play "alternative" music (not the commercially labeled alternative music, though). We also have an OG station that plays 80s and 90s hip-hop/rap. I often only need to swap between the two stations to find good songs (when NPR is playing classical). It is a good way to hear music I haven't heard in years, and it is almost always good music.
We are a pretty big city with a lot of public radio and college stations. This one is in the middle (97.7) and never advertised on billboards. It is owned by a classic rock station, I assume, because that is the only ad that ever runs on it (once an hour an ad tells you to try the other station). Sometimes it doesn't broadcast during the business day. I think there must be some other story behind it, but I don't know what it is. I just found that it has a web site, too, and is available online or via TuneIn.YankeeTarheel wrote: Thu Feb 14, 2019 7:35 pmIf it's at the low end of the dial it could be a college or "pirate" station.
