Music to my ears

Many years ago, a radio station called "The X" opened its doors and began broadcasting "alternative" music to Birmingham and the surrounding areas. Back then, it was located at 105.9 and was considered by many of my peers to be the superior radio station in town. They sponsored a music festival in the summer that became the hot ticket event. However, corporate America reared its ugly head and The X was bought by someone else and moved to another frequency, 107.7 I believe. Mostly, its content stayed the same, but a long and steady downward spiral had begun. After a couple years at 107.7, they moved again to 100.5. I may be fuzzy on my sequence of frequencies, but you get the idea. It's like a restaurant that moves around a few times but tries to convince you that they offer the same top quality fair. There's something inside of you that says, "If you're such a good restaurant, why can't you stay in one place?" Before long, the airwaves of Birmingham's Alternative station were dominated by such musical filth as Nickelback, Limp Bizkit, Seether, and the like. It was miserable. It seemed as though they made a playlist of twenty crappy songs and just played it over and over again. Radio in Birmingham had become a bleak landscape. Enter Live 100.5, Birmingham's Modern Music. Radio had been saved. Perhaps enough people made their opinions known, perhaps the radio powers that be woke up, but radio is good again. 100.5 plays a healthy mixture of up and coming artists, actually good music that's out now, and nostalgic hits from middle and high school. If you'd like to listen online, be my guest. I know I'm a little slow on the uptake here. The station has been in existence for several months now, but I don't live in Birmingham. Since I've been home, the radio in my car is constantly tuned to 100.5. As they say on the station, "Radio is good again."
