TOPIC: Way to not suck as much.

Post 1 of 13
I'm sure this is really old hat by now to you cool kids, but being as though I rarely listen to the radio anymore this really made my day: As I was browsing the channels earlier this evening I managed to catch "Blow it Out" being played on 102.5 (right before 50 Cent) and I nearly had a wreck in my excitement. Isn't it funny how when a song you really like comes on the radio you turn it up really loud and open your sunroof and wave frantically with both hands to the people next to you so that they'll think "Man, that girl is really having a good time listening to that song. I am going to listen to it really closely so that I can determine what song that is and rush out and buy the album and have a good time too!) But anyway...yeah....way to suck slightly less, 102.5.

Amen.

It's weird how I can have the CD in the player and the song will come on the radio and I just have to turn it up because it is on the radio.

That don't make no sense.

I've had similar screaming-almost-crashing fits when "Blow it Out" and "TtWiMtb" come on the radio.

Just a few weeks ago I was in my back yard cleaning out my car when "Blow it Out" came on Lightening 100. I screamed like a baby and turned it up. When I looked up all the neighborhood kids were staring at me. ph34r.gif
remember that its all in your head.

One of the producers of the Blow It Out video, Brett Darken, just went to Italy, on his trans atlantic flight, on the Alt Rock Music Channel 4, was none other than Blow It Out. He gave me the inflight magazine with it listed. Pretty freaking cool.

My girlfriend called me at work from the dressing room of the Green Hills GAP the day of the last Nashville show to tell me it was playing.

Almost as cool as telling the 17 year old at Media Play that "That's my video playing on TV right now."

"Yeah, right, would you like a subscription to Entertainment Weekly?"
