I was driving home from the Bus Station today and there was this sort of annoying sound coming from the radio. It was on, and tuned into my favorite station, Country 93.9 KZLA...but...that wasn't country music I was hearing. So I turned it up a bit and there was Ace of Base singing their one-hit wonder "I saw the sign."
Um...ok...I kind of like that song, it's catchy, and it's a dance song from my party days...but it's not Country by any stretch.
As I pulled into the driveway Nelly was telling me it's getting hot in here so I should take off all my clothes. No thanks, Nelly, I don't swing that way...and WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING ON MY COUNTRY STATION?!?!?!
Now my radio has been playing up recently. It would cut out then return on its own agenda. Sometimes we would even switch stations but to no avail. If we were listening to KROQ, it didn't matter which button we tried or what frequency the display showed, we continued listening to KROQ.
So I got inside and turned on the stereo in our family room, and there was Nelly, on 93.9, repeating how hot it was.
I went to KZLA's website but the information there was rather ambiguous. I called them but their 800 number was engaged, and their business line wasn't being answered. It wasn't until I emailed their Program Director and immediately got an Out of Office auto-reply that my fears were confirmed.
93.9 is no longer Country but has become Rhythmic A/C, whatever that means.
Actually I know what it means. It means it's time for the Cap'n to get cliche, chew some gum and kick some arses, and the Cap'n is all out of gum.
I need Country music and I need it NOW, DAMMIT!

aww, poor baby. all i can say is thank you god.
As I pulled into the driveway Nelly was telling me it's getting hot in here so I should take off all my clothes. No thanks, Nelly, I don't swing that way. LMFAO. Yeah I dont know what the hell is up with hip hop nowadays. When I was younger, I enjoyed some of the refer smoking, 40 guzzeling music that rapers like 2 pac and Snoop created, but nowadays hip hop is for the most part the worst form of music that I can find. I have to wonder though, is it the music that has changed or is it me? Am I turning into my late grandfather who refered to anything other than Frank Sinatra as rap crap? I think not but I could be wrong. When I was younger, I remember songs by 2Pac and others being about what LIFE was like before the money and now all I seem to hear is how great life is when you are spending all your money. sigh.. There has got to be a rapper out there right now that is broke as hell because his album flopped but when you listen to the lyrics, he makes it seem like he is living large.
Hank Williams Jr. now there is a country artist that makes me happy.
I'm not big on yer so called 'Country' musik. But I know wats I likes, and I likes 'Hayseed Dixie'.
Got to get ya some of that!
