If this is like a "now listening" thread, FO got 10,000 Maniacs Unplugged, and I listened to it. It was pretty good.

I just change the station until I hear a song I like.

I hardly listen to radio anymore, but when I do, it's mostly 100.5 the Kat, which, I believe, is mostly metal. Others, I just skim around stations and listen to music that catches my interest or something.

The Bravery sounds like a cross between U2 and The Cure.

It was "The Bravery". I heard the same song again today.

Since I'm more into music right now than games, I thought I'd just ramble a bit about stuff I've heard on the radio lately.

I heard ELP's "Lucky Man" two days in a row, both times on the way to work in the morning, and on two completely different radio stations. Odd considering the last time I heard that song was before I left NJ. In fact it had been so long, I couldn't quite remember if it even was ELP or not...until it got to the synthesizer part at...

I don't mind them playing songs from the 80s, it's just that when a song from '88 is considered an "oldie" (and I do mean the "oldies" station, not classic rock or classic hits), it makes me REALLY feel old. And yeah, the band is from the 60's, which is probably why they can play it.

Really, I think they should be considered to be something like "'70's" stations.

But the terminology *kind of* makes sense, because rock'n'roll is only so old. You don't have to worry about what to call rock'n'roll of the '30's, because there wasn't any. So, the first stuff was "oldies", then "classic rock", then I don't know what to call music after that. I guess it's back to calling it "80's...

Some of my earliest music memories are from the mid 70's. My dad had several "Oldies but Goodies" albums, with songs from the mid to late 50's. (My first favorite song was "tequila")....

Well, at least it's a band from the '60's.

Right now, I'm really loving 106.3 The Fox. I can no longer get this station on the radio around here, but I can listen to them over the internet at work. They not only have a good variety of classic, 80's, 90's, and modern rock, but they also play a lot of songs that aren't necessarily the most popular from the artists. That's the problem I have with the main classic rock station around here - they have a decent...

I used to like listening to classic rock and 80's rock stations, but lately the only time I hear the radio is at work and they always have some crappy adult contemporary station playing Celine Deon and Mariah Carey and Shaiana Twain, and...blech...I try to mentally block it out by singing Sesame Street songs and the DK Rap.

I listen to Country/Western music on the radio the vast majority of the time, though on occasion I'll switch to a pop/rock station for maybe a week or two. Then I get sick of how every song there sounds the same and switch back to Country where (despite what some people say) most songs DON'T just sound the same...

i used to listen to internet radio stations/audio streams back in school where there's broadband. don't do that anymore. listened to an R.E.M. station on a rather popular R.E.M. fansite. some american indie rock stations and a mix of MP3.com stations(before it got bought over by some bigass company who changed it all).

there isn't much on the local airwaves here.

i like listening to x'ho's show in the morning @ lush 99.5. pretty much tune in to that station most of the time....

I tend to channel surf a lot. There's a lot of local Philly stations here I listen to and an occasional Delaware station. I just stop the dial when I hear something I like.

You don't have to give the actual name and identification number of the station if you feel it'll give away where you live. I personally like 80's rock and classic rock stations. Sometimes I listen to the radio for news because it's usually more convenient than trying to get in front of a TV at specific hours.
