Same things I've expressed while reluctantly "voice tracking" radio programs days in advance or selecting from a list of pre-chosen music & of course the awkward "request line hour" which only includes selections from the pre-chosen playlist. These are reasons why, in the broadcasting industry, I try to work as independently as possible--without starving. "I'm just an individual who doesn't feel that I need to have somebody qualify my work in any particular way. I'm working for me." Bowie. We are all too busy multitasking & counting likes to notice that there is a glitch in the system & it's quite challenging when your profession requires you to ignore the glitch & maintain a number of likes, comments, shares & hashtags.

And that's a nice way to put it without sounding like the resident psychopath.<br /><br />And while I also agree about the canned music, I've been thinking A LOT about not teaching my children to conform to the same paradigm that my great-grandparents taught my grandparents who taught my parents who raised me to fit into polite society. I'm beginning to believe future generations aren't doomed because they do everything so differently than we do (how many generations before ours thought radio DJs were "the devil" and all that youth socialization would lead to the demise of civilization). So I endeavor to let my children set the tone - they're far more in touch with pop culture than I've ever been - and I try to help them innovate within their new paradigm. ehowtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09032150271966239543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1261498281852074581.post-47205314664254559362016-01-13T18:39:57.105-05:002016-01-13T18:39:57.105-05:00I had a bunch of his stuff 30 years ago....

Etta James died a year or so ago and I bought. I am glad I did, because I never knew of her. David Bowie was only a name to me, so maybe I will buy that album.<br />It is my way of saying thank you for their art.Packerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10790343423937405624noreply@blogger.com
