Caltrops - No Stairway to Heaven





	[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"][quote name="Roop"]I don't think I'm like normal people. I hear the Rolling Stones again and again, I go crazy. You've got these people that willingly listen to the same songs over and over, and they even will go on and on about it if you ask them, they like <i>need this shit</i> they like it so much, they can't work without it! And I sit quietly in the nearby cubicle seething with hate, because fuck that fucking shit! That's how you get me to hate something, have me hear it more than 20 times. [/quote] I grew up in Rochester, NY and the dominant radio station is WCMF 96.5, and they are playing the exact same setlist in 2022 that they were playing in 1989. I think they even totally got rid of Nirvana and Green Day, which I guess they were forced to add in the 90s. This is their most recent songs played: [quote] Tom Sawyer Rush 10:43 AM Landslide (Remastered) Fleetwood Mac 10:40 AM Rockin' Into the Night 38 Special 10:36 AM Over the Hills and Far Away Led Zeppelin 10:31 AM Wherever I May Roam Metallica 10:18 AM Come Sail Away Styx 10:12 AM Born In the U.S.A. Bruce Springsteen 10:08 AM Unchained Van Halen 10:05 AM Pour Some Sugar On Me Def Leppard 9:34 AM Bad To The Bone George Thorogood & The Destroyers 8:30 AM [/quote] I mean, that's <i>parody</i> at this point. And it would almost be manageable if they didn't all agree that no "deep cut" could EVER be played! I was getting nostalgic and I realized that I had never listened to the entirety of "Foreigner 4." And hell, Lou Gramm went to the same community college I did. [youtube id="HsQcNJ5-n5A"] That's a really good track. It's the best track on the album! And I have never heard it before. I bought a new synthesizer that I will post about soon and I am really trying to "listen" to the keyboard tracks in various songs and they certainly play keyboard in that song, you have to give them that. Anyway, there's a zillion things wrong with the world, and "classic rock stations never daring to think about playing a non-single on an album from the 1970s" is one of them. Cowards. ICJ[/quote]
