More on AC/DC Radio

I just went to XMRadio.com and see no evidence that this is temporary.

Am boggled. I don't mind - it's always nice to have a comfort-music backup plan when all my other stations are playing Come on Eileen, anything by Fleetwood Mac or John Cougar Mellencamp.

But it is odd.. I mean, there is a lot of AC/DC music out there, but is there really enough to support a 24/7 station?

I worked with a friend who played the radio all the time at her desk. I called her station "Steve Miller Band radio" Seems like all they played was "Jet Airliner" "Swingtown" "Take the Money & Run!"

Seems like peeps would get tired of any one-band stations! I guess that's the beauty of XM.

Yeah, I guess time will tell - if the feedback is good, it will stay, if people write and say "Ok, enough is enough" it will go.

A couple years ago during the holidays "The System" (the techno channel) was replaced by the Christmas music channel. I wondered why they picked System for the replacement -- I think the overlap between techno listeners and Christmas music afficionados would be fairly low. But, that only lasted a month and then The System came back.

I remember a time in my life when AC/DC was the end all/be all of rock 'n roll for me. They have 16 albums (with #17 on the way), so you're good for like a month to six weeks before overkill sets in on you.

Or is that already happening?

Actually no, it has been nice so far. This morning I got bored with the other music, so I put it on. First I caught the end of Back in Black, next was a song I didn't know, then Thunderstruck (my favorite!) and then another I didn't know.

The thing about the AC/DC songs that I do know... I never seem to get sick of them. I suppose this will be put to the test :) Ask me in a month!
