I would love a station where the DJ has full control over what is played. If he/she has it, it gets played. And requests are welcomed! You know, how rock stations USED to be. I remember calling up the local rock station and requesting songs all the time. It would take them awhile, but eventually, they would get the song on the radio, and it was always fun to listen to my favorite stuff. Last time I tried to request a song, they basically said if it's not in their playlist, they can't play it, but to get in touch with the main company and request it from them.

I'm really surprised radio hasn't died out completely.

Couldnt agree more.Now that Clear Channel and Cox radio have bought out I think every station in Houston{and probably across the country}radio sucks!
There used to be a great rock radio station in town,mixed old rock and new rock,gave great stuff away with their contest.Now if you try to win anything on the radio you're calling a 1-800 number or texting some number and you're competing against everyone in your city and a bunch of other cities,it's bullshit.
Heres another band I just found out about

Here's a solid hard rock band everyone should check out. The band is called W.E.T. It's got members from Work Of Art (another cool AOR band to check out), Eclipse, and Talisman. Hence, the name, W.E.T.

Good riffs good vocals but I didnt like it that much,too popish sounding to me but that's just me,music is so subjective to each individual
