I'm on vacation this week, so please enjoy a week's worth of mini-stories . . .
I couldn't help but notice that most all of this week's posts were based on disparaging comments. No wonder they had been previously abandoned!
One to make you smile . . .
While the radio station still regularly plays songs off of CDs (and occasionally even LPs!), most of the songs that get repeat airplay are available to the DJs on a computer in the studio, in high-quality MP3 form.
On the postive-side: Convenience. You can quickly find a song to play if you need one.
On the negative-side: The various information fields in our computer database program only allow so many characters.
That means, when you look on the computer display, this song shows up as being titled:
"Letters From The Wastela"
So if you hear an DJ announce this tune as "Letters From The Wastela," you can laugh, knowing that this is some green newbie, who grabbed a song they weren't familiar with, and just botched the title!
Hear the song on Youtube.
Awesome Wallflowers song! Have you heard their new single yet? It's streaming on the Rolling Stone site and definitely worth checking out! http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/song-premiere-the-wallflowers-reboot-the-mission-20120723
