WTMD!

I wanted to post a shout-out to my favorite radio station, WTMD (89.7 in Baltimore and other points in Maryland). It's an independent station - most of the music they play can't be heard on mainstream radio. They do play a few familiar songs (I was rocking out to a Smiths song on there yesterday) but a good deal of it is just-under-the-radar accoustic rock, folk, blues, with a little punk and soul now and then. The quality of the music is mostly high, unlike your basic college station, on which there's a good deal of innovation, but a wide variance in substance.

I felt inspired to write this because today the live internet stream went down while I was at work, and I missed it. I wrote them an email asking what happened, and less than an hour later I had a letter in my inbox explaining the system problem, and telling me to try again, because it was fixed. Maybe that's why they manage to keep going - they take care of their listening audience!
