I know a lot of you listen to your favorite music while playing, but do any of you listen to your local radio stations?
This is a link to my favorite local station Q92 (http://www.q92rocks.com/index2.jsp), They have a 'Listen Live' link near the top left.
(it is a Java link so it changes constantly, or I would post a direct link)
Q92 Is In Sudbury Ontario, Canada.
If any of you have Live broadcasts from your local stations, I think it would be a lot of fun checking them out.

Hear is one I listen to. I'm older than a lot of you guys so my tastes are a little different.
This is the local radiostation here in Baltimore and apparently one of the very first "alternative" stations.

It is interesting how the style of variaty changes from different areas. This is great, I was getting board with local radio, I could with a high sucses rate predict each new song to be played. I guess everyone can do that to an extent after listening for a long time and getting used to the style.
Here is another local station with a different format Big Daddy - 'Playing Anything' (http://www.bigdaddy1039.ca/)
Just found this Site, RadioStationWorld (http://radiostationworld.com/default.asp) allows you to choose stations from everywhere ;)

I sometimes scan Shortwave frequencies and find alot of strange stuff being broadcast and the odd amature radio ethusiasts chatting to each other, :D.

I normally listen to Last FM (http://www.last.fm/). It's a downloadable and runs from the desktop. That way if I don't like the song I can just skip it. Also, no annoying DJ's or talk-shows. Lets me tune in to whatever style of music I like. Other one I used to use was Pandora. I tend not to listen to local stations, if I do I lean toward independent ones. You know ones that Clear Channel (http://www.clearchannel.com/) doesn't run.
