Oh wow... having grown up listening to commerical radio, and only commerical radio I don't EVER hear any of the songs listed above... I mean EVER!

The first time I was in Calgary my second cousin's husband thought I was some sort of freak because I couldn't get over the fact they were playing GnR on the radio, I was like "Tom... this is Guns and Roses right?" "This is the radio?" "you mean it's not a CD, it's the radio?" "Hold on, hold on, hold on, you mean to tell me they're playing GnR ON THE RADIO?!??!?!"

The most rock type music I hear is Matchbox 20, or Alanis. Wait they play Santa Monica by Theory of a Deadman, and Blvd of Broken Dreams by Green Day. That's it, that's as rock, and young adult as they get. ONLY those songs by Theory of a Deadman, and Green Day, not even like Holiday.

www.capebretonradio.com just have a listen, this is what I had to grow up with. You people complaining about having Pearl Jam, Live, and the Hip (none of their songs EVERY play on the radio, EVER) have no idea how much radio can be painful. To the point that even now in Halifax, I don't listen to the radio. You just learn to ALWAYS have your diskman, or a pile of CDs in the car. Worse comes to worse the silence of whatever your doing... never the radio.
