Aetosmith, Doors, Stone Temple Pilots, Pink Floyd, AC/DC and who couldn't enjoy a bit of Ozzy singing "Crazy Train"? [Review 11590 overall, 1370 of 2019.]

Ahhh WUSC. You almost single-handedly created one very important element of my personality. I made…read moresome very good friends because of you, & heard a million amazing songs, some of which still haunt me to this day. Where would my ears be without you? Where would my heart be? Where would my bank account be? You caused a deep paradigm shift in several aspects of my life -- some for the better, some for the worse, some muddled somewhere inbetween. You were a rich, rich experience, & 2.5 years very well spent.

Each show has something completely new to offer. Yeah sometimes you get (dead air) "um....." (dead air). Some of my current favorites include: The metal show, hillbilly heaven, redbank bar and grill and the local show. Definitely something different when you turn the dial to 90.5.

The station Carrie's many popular series and sports programming is excellent. Oddly, it is difficult/impossible to reach them by phone.

But I found local musicians and some other artist like Edward Sharpe and The Avett brothers playing throughout the day. In short this is the only station I can stand unless Columbia decides to bring back an oldies station that mixes it up too.

I started out writing music & movie reviews in 1998, dabbled in a few news stories (mostly puff-pieces), & wound up a columnist for the Viewpoints section, where I discovered that I had a vast array of Opinions, Dammit! I had Beliefs! Although this was a fact I hadn't realized until my buddy Kenley -- the editor at the time -- installed me as the assistant section editor. For example: Frat Boys? I didn't really care for them. Honors Kids? They got some perks that the rest of us didn't get, & it wasn't cool in my opinion. Athletes? Dumb Freeloaders, the whole lot. George Bush & Al Gore? I wasn't impressed with either of them, & I even threw my hat into the ring in the '00 election, though the wheels came off once Cameron Diaz never answered my letter requesting that she be my first lady. Hell, I even invented a fake boy band consisting of myself & five other friends on staff. We called ourselves The Hi-Notes. Basically, half my readers thought I was a dumb jerk, & the other half thought I was a funny jerk. The truth was actually neither. I was pretty shy -- it was an alter ego, well, the jerkiness was, but I did become a little more outspoken because of it, & I credit my days as a columnist for my penchant for occasional showmanship. Basically, it was the perfect outlet for a nerd in denial (i.e. me).
