I'm plurking a lot today but people who listen to the radio while driving, what stations do you like/what do they play? I finally cancelled Sirius XM (since they didn't try giving me fifty million promotional deals this time) so I need some stations to program in
мαи∂α
I usually listen to alt rock and indie nonsense

I just listen to local radio. 
SORRY I WON'T BE MUCH HELP.....

I usually flip between our local top 40 station and our local classic country station, but the oldies station just swapped to 24/7 christmas so that's priority #1 right now
мαи∂α
gOD I FORGOT LOCAL RADIO IS A THING
мαи∂α
the only one I remember in our area is KISS FM because my mom used to listen to it all the time
departed 👻
ditto local radio lol i'm lazy
departed 👻
wait if you have kiis fm are you socal
мαи∂α
I've just had satellite radio since I got my car like four years ago since sirius xm is like notorious for making canceling a pain and kept offering me decent promotional deals
мαи∂α
I used to be socal but I live in north texas rn since my family moved
departed 👻
oh then nvm
мαи∂α
this is our KISS FM
departed 👻
i was gonna be all like WAIT I CAN RECOMMEND LOCAL STATIONS but no
𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘢
if you live in north texas then you should at LEAST be able to find a good classic country local radio station. like, garth & reba and shit like that
мαи∂α
lmfao no sorry. I might have to turn to google, I'm just in a whole new world
❝marti❞
lol
мαи∂α
but then I have to listen to country, kates
мαи∂α
why are you torturing me
❝marti❞
That's hilarious
𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘢
yes but consider this, reba is amazing

Over the years I've amassed like... Probably 20 mix cds that I shuffle around without caring what happens to them because burned. I make a new one if I find a cool new song then I find more songs to fill out the disc. Not radio helpful tho.
мαи∂α
I have spotify for that

modern country is all trucks and jeans and florida georgia line, classic country is songs about murder and hookers and only occasionally trucks
мαи∂α
but sometimes I just... flip on the radio, my commute is 2 short to mess with my phone/bluetooth every dang time
мαи∂α
lmfao if I can find a good class country station in my area I will give it a try just for you
мαи∂α
...classic

I was legit expecting sirius to be like BUT WAIT WE CAN GIVE YOU 5-6 MONTHS AT A SUPER CHEAP PRICE YET AGAIN
departed 👻
classic country is pretty adjacent to roots rock so
мαи∂α
so I"m a little in shock still
❝marti❞
listen: Roots rock?
❝marti❞
I will have to look into this
departed 👻
like creedence clearwater revival, some older rolling stones stuff
departed 👻
there is so much classic rock/classic country crossover
мαи∂α
yeah I listen to alt rock mostly though
departed 👻
i love me some folk/blues/country rock
мαи∂α
I pretty much swapped between the alt rock station and lithium (90s grunge) when I had sirius
❝marti❞
listen: This is basically because I want more of this certain style of country on Tex's playlist but I haven't been able to find what it's called
❝marti❞
Basically "sounds like classic country but is newer"
❝marti❞
Or "sounds a lot like Trocadero" lol
departed 👻
i was gonna be all like "jesus christ how many martis that play texas are out there" but then i realized this is just your personal account
❝marti❞
Yes
departed 👻
i actually might not be able to help very much since i listen to more rock than country and what country i do listen to is not new
departed 👻
but if you're up for a more bluegrass-y type of sound maybe look up allison krauss
departed 👻
oh wait i misread you're just asking about the genre LMAO uhhhh i dunno if roots rock is exactly what you're looking for, maybe americana?
мαи∂α
americana is good
мαи∂α
I think I have a list of stations to try out that are mostly adult hits/classic hits/contemporary/urban nonsense so
departed 👻
i think that's a loose term for music that has a deliberate classic american folk music sound/influences
мαи∂α
at least I know what to program in
мαи∂α
I just need something to put on when I don't feel like messing with spotify hence my canceling this paid service, get dunked satellite
