Jukebox noted that the suckage that is DC radio is canning the last remnants of WHFS music and djs as the classic rock station 94.7 is changing its format to "fresh" (bland mix crap). Amazing that with all the neat types of music in the city that the majority continues to clamor for bland bland bland. Then again, my friends all eat thai but mcD's makes more than all those restaurants combined.

Why is bland so big it eats all in its path? That means the only station left in dc is the douchebag rock station 101. Yeah - party like a date-raping frat boy. Woo.

I pretty much stopped listening to the radio after HFS went so abruptly off the air; I was disgusted with the whole situation, and had long been getting sick of radio music, anyway. I had high hopes for 94.7 when it came along, but gave up on it when it started playing less alt/indie stuff and more, to pick an example at random, Led Zeppelin. (Can I really be the only person on earth who finds most of their music grating and repetitive?)

That's why I got an iPod-compatible head unit for my car, and have used that exclusively for all my rocking-while-driving needs. At home it's either iTunes or Pandora. While I'm sad to see the 94.7 that was fail, I'm glad my listening habits aren't affected by it.
