The Radio Is Broken is a three-hour spelunk through the canyons and fissures of humanity's collective unconscious. It sounds as if a field recording of the Culture Industry were a sonic juggernaut barreling down a rickety track—except that tunnel ahead is just painted onto a sheer cliff wall. With occasional forays into what might pass for "normal" music. Prerequisite journey: Cratedigger's Lung

Folks, it's okay to have and to express differences of opinion, particularly when it comes to aesthetic preferences.

they had 45 grab bags too and they were pretty decent, a little bit more country & big band tinged than i wanted but there was usually some pretty good stuff in there

Am I hearing that WFMU DJs, or some of them, don't want honest (but polite) criticism of their track selections on the comment boards? I find that unfathomable.

I don't feel entitled about anything. I despise entitlement.
If these playlists are fundamentally "your own," then I have long misunderstood this relationship.
However, if this kind of confrontation and adversarial engagement causes you pain, then I side with you 100%, because I also have issues dealing with it. I'm getting (empathy!) that you hate to have to navigate through intense disagreement. So do I.
So, I am sorry for pissing you off.

Rich, listen to yourself. I don't believe that this is your take on how the world works.
My comments are "hurtful"? How so? Merely by being negative.
Folks, be wary about asking for strict rules against "negative" commentary. They will bite you in the ass.
Bye.

- why would i do that, if i like the person?
there are shows i listen to because i like most of what gets played. do i have to say when there's something i don't like? when they play so much that i enjoy??

but gradually started really hating his singing! his voice; but more-so his pseudo-soul schtick.
i still like the moondance album, but not much else. a few songs.
his duet with John Lee Hooker on "i cover the waterfront" is beautiful.

I could go on and on about this -- and I did, with Pseu Braun a few weeks ago when she was co-hosting Marty and I was in the phone room -- but I'm finding nowadays that really cool shit is happening outside major cities. Today, for example, I was with a dear friend in Chicopee and Northampton (Mass.) and delighted to see some random weirdness. Now that the weather is getting nicer again, I am psyched to go explore.
