Ugh!! Triple A Radio. What A Load Of Crap!!

Radio is so messed up. I looked at a recent playlist/airpla¥ chart at one of the AAA radio behomoths (KGSR in Austin) and it’s full of boring crap. The web is so the place to be right now. Here’s their list; how unimaginative and corporate friendly can they be (and yes they threw a bone to Michael Fracasso and Bob Schneider but they’re local and that’s that):

SANTANA - She’s Not There
NICKEL CREEK - Reasons Why
DAVE MATTHEWS BAND - Where Are You Going
AMOS LEE - Listen
R.E.M. - Radio Free Europe
MY MORNING JACKET I’m Amazed
BOB DYLAN - I Threw It All Away
MICHAEL FRACASSO - Naked Fool
LOS LOBOS - Can’t Stop The Rain
ADELE - Chasing Pavements
JAMES HUNTER - Don’t Do Me No Favours
DAVID BOWIE - Rebel Rebel
WILLIE NELSON w/ NORAH JONES - Lonestar
DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE - I Will Possess Your Heart
NIRVANA - Come As You Are
STEVIE RAY VAUGHN AND DOUBLE TROUBLE - Ain’t Gone ‘n Give Up On Love
BOB SCHNEIDER - When The Sun Breaks Down On
JORMA KAUKONEN - I Am the Light of this World
EDDIE VEDDER - Hard Sun
COLDPLAY - Viva La Vida
FLEETWOOD MAC - Never Going Back Again

P.S. I’m pretty buzzed on a good Merlot so just ignore this post…please.
