Hey Part 2

But its a great list
He really knows what Great + Beautiful Music is

Would`nt make sense to me if he hates Joy Division.

ps-cool name change Spaceboy!named after a Godspeed song.

OK, I’m definitely getting XFM satellite radio now.

[Javro]

It promises more than it delivers, Jaron.

Unless you are up for listening to Fools Gold about 20 times a day, Zane Lowe, the world’s most annoying Australian trying to be wacky, and "our man in Noo Yawk, who just wants to hump PJ Harvey.

Interesting fact number 1 – XFM was set up by the Cure’s manager. He sold it to Capital Radio for a tidy sum. I was going to work there, but Classic FM got the better of me. Oh sweet Elgar.
