Radio Video #36 - WXPN staff stranded on Gilligan's Island

In this edition of Radio Video, WXPN's General Manager Roger LaMay ponders what it would be like to be stuck on an island with an iPod that only contained 10 songs. See the staff re-enact this scenario in a Gilligan's Island episode. Join us starting September 29th for the playback of the 885 Desert Island songs and listen to what the listeners voted as the songs they couldn't live without.

Thank Goddi aka Gotti aka John Gotti (God) it's over. It turned into a lovefest for:

Bob Dylan

Bruce Springsteen

The Beatles

Van Morrison

Joanie Mitchell

R. Stones. It was the ultimate 'sado-masochistic tango'. Thank Gotti we are not stuck on the same desert island as these flunkies (XPN staff and voters). They have no ear for music. Number One is the predictable, impudent, ear-blasting and satanic: "Thunder Road." The Boss and XPN are corporate; corporatism is what they stand for.

It's Wednesday--more junk: Tom Waitz, 23minute Grateful Dead riffs----unfriggin' real.

Nothing's changed. Would rather see XPN fold instead of pledging any monies. This list has become a low budget horror movie. Millions of songs have been recorded since the beginning but XPN keeps coming up with stuff that wouldn't make a normal person's top 885,000.

WXPN is running its top 885 songs to have while stranded on a desert island (as voted by listeners). This list is pathetic and ridiculous. It's so crazy that it's almost funny. One has to wonder why this station is dedicated to sado-masochism. And no one here seems to be aware of the list, which, if genuine, proves the voters are as nutty as the station folq.
