A pledge pin?! On your uniform?!

I have some other shit to do tonight, and didn't intend on writing at all. But if I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times...

When you promise the loyal listeners that every night that you're going to Get the Led Out, you better GET THE FUCKING LED OUT!

No solo shit, no offshoots, no Swan Song labelmates (I'm watching you, Michael Des Barres). Especially when you play a gawddamn bumper explicitly stating that "You're Getting the Led Out on The Loop."

"Peppering the Led with some solo Robert Plant... I like to do that occasionally. That's Pledge Pin from Plant's first solo album, following the demise of Led Zeppelin."

Maybe you like to do that occasionally, Seaver... but please name someone else who does. And that's not even a good Plant song. It's so far from rocking that it can't even be considered rock and/or roll. Nice soulless cheesy sax solo too, you dick. Kenny G must have worked pretty cheap back then. Way to throw that garbage on us when we're trying to rock.

C'mon Seaver, what's next? The Firm? The Honeydrippers? Sure, I have those LPs... but I never mix them in with my Zeppelin. Need I bring Bonham (the band) to your attention again? How about Cinderella as produced by John Paul Jones? OK, fine... I have those records too. But still... DAMN YOU! Get the Led Out!!

It started off well enough with For Your Life and Dazed and Confused, but you had to pull this shit... AGAIN. And to top it off, you kick off the set of music after your pitiful attempt to Get the Led Out with Godsmack? Godsmack?! What kind of fucking shit is that? Leave that crap for that steaming pile down the dial... The Zone. That's where your buddy Zander starts next week. You ought to give him a call. When Byrd makes his triumphant return to the evenings, where are you left in the grand schme of the Loop airstaff? Honestly... I hope they move the staff around and lose Zakk Tyler, that joke they hired from Whereverthehell USA. Someplace, a zoo is missing its zookeeper.


On a non-angry note (and they're becoming harder and harder for me to come by), The White Stripes kicked my ass last night. And I take back what I said about Meg White. She's exactly what that band needs. I bet it's been awhile since The Auditorium has been rocked so hard.

Re: Meg White, what changed?

She didn't change... I just realized that night that she is 50% of The White Stripes, regardless of raw musical talent or songwriting contribution.

You just like the way her boobies sway as she bangs on that drum kit. Admit it.

Meg certainly is well-endowed. Yes, I admit that. It hardly mattered Tuesday night, though... since we were sitting in the balcony and I didn't have binoculars.

Believe me, I have nothing against boobies. I love boobies! But Meg ruling as The White Stripes drummer has nothing to do with her boobies swaying.
