Anything Goes

I've been listening a lot lately to "Liberty" 98.9 FM. When your choices of listenable radio stations number between four and six depending on how well 96.9 and 106.9 come in on a given day, having another button-worthy station is huge. Liberty is a "we play anything" station similar to Virginia Beach's Bob FM, and in a recent drive home I heard Dexy's Midnight Runners, Tom Petty, and Elton John in succession. They'll clearly play what might be labeled as classic rock, 80's, 90's alternative, pop, and rock -- but (like with Bob) I've never heard mention of country. Their liners literally say thing like "we play anything" and "you never know what's coming next" but evidently you always know what's not coming next -- country. I'm not even a fan of country music but it seems like the Bob/Jack/Dave/Liberty formats should at least have a Garth Brooks song thrown in once in a while to truly justify their "anything goes" format.

I'm figuring out how to post pictures.
