...I don't know your familiar with Jack fm(syndicated? or seattle based).
but they play a varied mix of music. Occaisionally they'll play a typically
"lame" song (milli vanilli, "barbie girl", etc...) then cut it short and say
"Nah, weren't not going to play that" and continue on with another song. A
couple weeks ago at work they played the intro to pipeline, and I thought to
myself "sweet, something other than the oldies station is playing surf
music." Nope they gave it their staple hook.
At least people are aware of it, even if it is "lame"
