you know, when it's good, it's really good.

but when there's a band you don't care for, it sucks... and get 2 or 3 of those bands in a row and we're talking downright unbearable.

6. What irritates me is it's always the same songs
Any Pink Floyd 3-fer I hear, I can about guarantee it will include Comfortably Numb, and probably Money, Another Brick in the Wall (part 2), Brain Damage/Eclipse or Wish You Were Here. Usually a combo of 3 of those songs.

All great songs, imo, but there are plenty of others out there to choose from and it would be really nice to hear something different. It would be really great to hear something like Careful With That Axe, Eugene or Astronomy Dominie.

7. back in the 70's, my local station rolled the 'rock n roll dice',
so sometimes you got six in a row.

9. Or when they play two off an album that HAVE to be heard at the same time:
e.g.

Santana, Abraxis: Black Magic Woman into Oye Como Va

Linda Ronstadt: When Will I Be Loved into Willin'

10. The radio station I listen to has Mandatory Metallica at 10:00 p.m. every night
They play some awesome stuff for about 1/2 hour.

Then there's 4:00 fourplay when they play 4 songs by one artist - also usually really good.

I know what you mean about the bad choices, though. x(
