Time to check your suckers. Now KXLU sucks Big Time. I don't hear it that much anymore (out of range most of the day) but when I do it's hurtin bad. Play all this shit like fIREHOSE and SST crap [ (-: - Ouch, Grady, Ouch! No, don't hit me! Ouch!] What, me objective? :-) The best station in America is KSPC, 88.7 in LA. They're in these little cultural backwaters called Pomona & Claremont, and yet they still play reams of Big Black, Sonic Effing Youth, Head Of David, etc. etc. etc. during *all* shifts (i.e., not just during some `New Wave special' show). A friend of mine says that he called and requested Big Black and the D.J. said "You're GOD, man, you're fucking GOD!!" in return ... Yow ... He also heard a song from the Factory tape (disclaimer: gratuitous plug intended) and he suddenly exclaimed `Hey, I know that song! I heard it on KSPC! It goes like this ...' and described how it ended perfectly. Everyone in Factory *swears* they never sent the station a copy of it ... Now THAT'S what I call one rad station ... Greg
