We actually have quite a few good radio stations that I listen to. I'm originally from Milwaukee, which at one time, had the two best radio stations on the planet. The first is Laser 103, a rock station, which is home to the best morning team in the country, Bob and Brian. It is also home to great segments like Mandatory Metallica and The Home Grown Hour, which supports local music. The other was 93 QFM, another rock station, which was the best radio station I've ever listened to, until it changed it's format in 1995. It was on this station that I first heard a great number of fabulous bands like The Doors, Tom Petty, Stone Temple Pilots, Alice In Chains, Metallica, ect... I also heard Liz for the first time on the radio on that station in 1994 when I heard "Supernova" on this station. But, alas, the station is no more. I just moved to Madison, WI in May which is the home another great rock station, 94.1 JJO. They play literally anything from The Beastie Boys to Slayer. So I have to say that radio stations here in WI are pretty good compared to what I've heard from the rest of the country.

They suck. MTV also sucks these days, big time (except for Daria). I hate DJs (in the traditional sense) because they blather on and on incessantly. I'm sure most people don't really need to hear their *smart* little comments all day long. This seemingly misanthropical attitude has caused me to spend a significant portion of my income on costly compact discs and exorbitant home audio equipment. But the opportunity cost of saving money and succumbing to those radio pukes is control. Don't ever underestimate control.

DJ: How were they? CALLER: How were they. I thought it was one of the most appalling things I have ever seen...there were two gentlemen in cages on either side of the stage with fake Uzis; there were, uh...Jesus, it..it was unbelievable. And when I see somebody who’s wearing one of their shirts, I think that they’re scum too. ________________________________________________________________ Get FREE voicemail, fax and email at http://voicemail.excite.com Talk online at http://voicechat.excite.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 11 Nov 1999 11:33:17 EST From: Emerald314@aol.com Subject: Re: support-system-digest V2 #332 Hey Jason Tedford: I also thought the lyrics were "Wave goodbye to Shane and go to work" and for that reason I assumed the song was "Shane" and "Nashville" was "Shane." I thought that until a few years ago when I was singing it with my friend Julie (hey girl!) and she ever so nicely corrected me. I do think the song "Nashville" is an amazing one, I love the little chimes at the beginning and I think the way Liz sings it is beautiful. ~Emily ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 11 Nov 1999 15:57:00 -0800 (PST) From: robert joyner Subject: Janet Rains Show Got this press release from Janet today.

My friends went into this sado-masochist store where we read essential readings like The Angry Slut (along the lines). Angelina Jolie kind of looks like Fiona. i think so anyway. well the movie seemed good enough until the last 30 minutes of mushy nothing that connected nothing but pointless randomness. 4 Liz: HI ECP! ECP sounds like a rapper. Shane and Nashville are my favorite songs off WhpSmt (kant throw those extra 3 letters in!) Did Anyone watch the TV annie. do those who did think that Kathy Bates is the most wonderful beautiful actress ever ever ever? Of course you did. she was so cute and yelled at orphans and did sluty dances (essentials for a Kathy movie). she is the best. ohhh Bates. My friend mom calls me Norman from Psycho. She always acts out scenes on the phone. i think i talk to her more. well the new fiona album is the best. suprisingly less commercially accessible (though many on tidal weren't either). when she did limp on MTV she forgot the words when she went (no matter what i try) then she started giggling. any liz Phans (gag) in CA out there. no sign of any GLORYous people here. oh well. i'm alone. confused. and this damn cat fluffy keeps tearing out my stuffing. by the way...
