What kind of station are they?

No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Did I not already say I don't listen to music on the radio? I listen to public radio, and I used to listen to Hot 97. I don't understand your crazy moon talk!!!

Are you ready to be strong?
I don't listen to music on the radio either. I listen to Howard Stern during the week, TAL on the weekends. That's about it. Otherwise I am totes DIY w/ my playlist and whatnot.

Silence means security silence means approval
WFMUish.
ish, but really not. More "adult alternative" without the mandated playlist.
I listen to public radio
WXPN IS public radio. Ditto KCRW and KEXP (nee KCMU).

OK. Did I not already ask this question? What kind of music do those stations generally play? What does "adult alternative" mean?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I think it means "the least offensive tracks from college radio circa 1989."

They pay me in WOIMS
I think it means the soundtrack from Garden State.

Up with the sun
Are you people listening to Nellie McKay? She's so kickass.
She's another artist I missed the boat on, I'm afraid -- her CD did nothing for me. I mean, I admire the cleverness of her lyrics, but that doesn't make me want to listen to her.
(I think she's just not noisy enough for me.)
I think it means the soundtrack from Garden State.
Nah, that would be too edgy for them. More like the soundtrack to Singles.
And I think I'm one of the only ones here who listens to music on the radio, because (as I have said before) I have the attention span of a chipmunk and get easily bored by NPR, and am too lazy to make a different mix CD every week.
