You: Program Director

XM and Sirius satellite radio merged. For the time being, The Bonyard (XM) is off the air. Taking the dial at 41 is Hair Nation, a flagship of Sirius. I'll be honest and admit I don't like Hair Nation as much as the Boneyard because of all the talking. I pay for satellite radio to hear music - not jocks. I don't want my songs introduced. I don't want stupid gossip either. My satellite receiver means I can see the name of the band and song playing at will.

Still, Sirius Hair Nation is doing one thing right: the powers that be are letting the paying customers vote for new music. While some may take the word "new" to mean modern - I actually just mean "different." I can think of a lot of 80s songs that never - or rarely - get any exposure on Hair Nation or the Boneyard. I'm sick of hearing "Same 'Ol Situation" nine times in one day!

I'll tell you: I was not pleased after the mash-up of channels last week as most of my pre-sets were screwy. It took me two days to get everything organized again! Still, it's nice to get a few other stations in the mix - for free!
