WEB RADIO

I found the articles recently on web radio interesting. A lot of radio stations have the same playlists and do get a bit boring. I have my own little internet station on Live 365 called brcfp (http://www.live365.com/ stations/328577). I play a lot of country, as that gets neglected by radio, apart from BBC Radio 2. Also a lot of rock, blues, folk and stuff mainstream radio won’t play: Beefheart, Zappa, Tom Waits, Mostly Autumn, The Hamsters, Golden Earring, etc… At the moment there is 8 hours and 30 minutes of music in loop, with no talking. The playlist plays for about a month before I change it. Check previous playlists out on my blogs on MySpace (http://www. myspace.com/alansmadmusic).
