    So glad to see that someone else is as baffled as I am that this station is so popular. To be…read morefair, I've never listened to this station at any time other than the morning. But that was more than enough. Eric, Kathy and Melissa are criminally annoying. Eric prattles on and dishes with the girls about Britney Spears, Mary Janes, fierce cosmos and pugs. But he doesn't _really_ know anything about this stuff because he is Straight (Richard Simmons), Straight (Charles Nelson Reilly), Straight (RuPaul). And Kathy and Melissa do their level best to set the women's movement back hundreds of years (respectively with inane ramblings and palpable lack of confidence) each time they open their mouths. Eric says, "The sun is a source of cold." Kathy says, "Really, Eric? Gawsh, I never thought of that before. Wooaaaooww. Gigglegiggle." Melissa says, "Um, no I don't think..." Eric says, "Aren't you old and desperate for a man?" Melissa shuts up. How do people listen to this day in and day out? When I first moved to Chicago, my clock radio was set on this frequency from my previous city of residence. The one positive I can say about THA MIXXX is that as soon as I heard the inanity, I would bolt out of bed to turn the radio off. So, thanks Eric & Kathy, for making sure that I started my day with a fright and great annoyance but, at least, I got out of bed promptly.

    Radio Stations change. If you don't believe me- just go back…read moreto watching reruns of Loni Anderson and WKRP in Cincinnati, the episode that has 4 old OLD old people protest in studio to change back to easy morgue music. I grew up too at a time when music was King in Chicago, the age of stations like Q101, B96 and the new era of shook jocks like Man Cow in the Morning. I am so glad that I was a teacher in Cicero and listened to him on the way to work- talking explicitly about poop-cicles before having to teach makes things in perspective like no other. So when people give negative comments- I just don't get it. You are not 17 any more growing up locked in your room grounded, there is this thing called the internet, SerousXM radio, CD players, Ipods and a ton of other toys to listen to exactly what you want when you want it if you drive, walk or commute. Performance Corner I am really happy that stations now have the ability and means to give great performances through the net offered by their stations. Performance Corner is a chance for me to hear and now even see what was filmed live. I can see my friends or friends of my friends that have now bands that are on the tour scene in Chicago. Even though I am in Honolulu - I'm able to view shows that really interest me. I remember having to stay up way too late one night in High School to hear DJ Russ Harris (a friend) first battle on the DJ mix off competitions and then preform his sets live on air. I had to stay up til like 3 am or something for some but it was crazy cool to me to do that.... NOW all I would have to do is stream at 3 pm in the lazy afternoon or whenever I wanted to repeatedly cause it is on-line. I'm able to see bands play in the Performance Corner and watch them anywhere. When I am back in Chicago I scan and listen to the old radio stations that I used to listen to- and guess what? DJ have changed, radio station formats have changed, things change. I get that. Was it as good as when the station first started? No! But that doesn't mean that they aren't doing their thing. They seem to have more contests. Hey I'm up to try to win tickets- well that is how they try to get listeners and loyal listeners. They do this or that contest and try to get listeners. Myself- I want to hear a good mix of music played, I'm rare and will seek out a station that I like and listen on the internet occasionally. Others know that people are picky, so they do what they think best. No, I don't like Eric and Kathy, but hey I'm not a daily listener as I said. I like many other younger/ savey listeners are listening more targeted and specifically for a specific reason, it may be different for each real listener. Internet has changed much in the industry and I do not fault stations. I do wish they were caught in a perfect time bubble that I could listen to and remember simpler times whenever I needed to and a dj that could relate to me perfectly- I also know that is not grounded in reality. Til then, I pick and choose those that I like and enjoy the Performance Corner especially cause I know friends or friends of friends on it.
