Day 17

Day 17. A song that you heard often on the radioIt's been about fifteen years since I've listened to the radio: just as soon as I could afford do, I replaced the stock AM/FM radio in my Saturn with a CD player. Who wants to listen to the radio when you can listen to your own music

I listen to Radio every day. For me part of the joy of music is discovering new stuff and a good radio station fuels that. My iTunes would be much smaller if it wasn't for BBC 6Music...

The only rules were that I had to play a couple of songs before the end of the show from three bins of records sent to the station by record labels.

Huh, we didn't have that rule when I was there. Or maybe I blocked it out. I dunno. But me and my friends pretty much played what we wanted.

Yeah, you were supposed to fill out sheets saying which songs you'd played from which bins during which hours. I was always, always doing stuff like briefly mixing in impossibly short songs, e.g. FM Stations Blow Up:

Not much to it, but it met the requirements. :)
