Thanks! I really miss him. Is it me or did his hair go gray?

So I was browsing through some of the past playlists and I had no idea that "Sea Breeze" by Eddie Reasoner played in December 2008. Don't have the recording anymore on my VCR, but I had no idea I had a clip of that song. Memories..

Why did they remove "Flight" by Jim Weider from primetime?

Canada still has analog TV... last I checked they don't translate to all digital until 2011.

Figures, when I went to Canada last time they still got cable from the wall.

I hope to get some TWN clips when I go to Canada in 2 weeks. I plan to visit Ottawa, visit my cousins in Toronto for a day, and spend 2 nights in Quebec City. Is the cable system in Canada the same as the US? Do they use a cable box, digital transition is affected?

His song Shadow aired in Dec 08 as well as another song in November. They probably don't remember it was played back then.

I sent Mr. Darby an email saying it wouldn't work because they tried it in 2002...and it didn't flow in well. Most of the people who like the music hardly watch TWC anyways. but that's just my 2 cents.

They disabled my clip with Seal's - Don't Cry ugh..I'll upload it to Dailymotion

Here's my favourite song in the entire playlist, "Chasing Rainbows" by Chris Geith. I'm liking this uplifting tune!

I think they removed a good non-jazz song in the primetime list, "Flight" by Jim Weider. I"m hearing a weird song at :58 that I don't recall hearing.

Yeah I haven't heard that song either. Same with Rain Daze. Wonder what happened?

Haven't heard Rain Daze or George Winston/Cleas' Day on overnight. I really wanted to record "Hummingbird" because I remember it from 1998 but I guess SOYCD by Pink Floyd will do..

You're failing to understand they can do whatever they want and that our say most likely won't make them change their minds.

I'm not around here much, but as far as I know, no one ever said they couldn't. However, we can still bitch about it all we want.

Me, I haven't watched TWC seriously in years, so NBC's decisions don't do much except push me further away from it. Hence why I've stopped coming here as often.

True. There are always consequences. They can do whatever they want but there'll be major problems when the consequences happen.

It's not going to last long, that 80% will drop soon. Many people in my family were annoyed hearing rock on the LF..it got too distracting for them.

You know that pretty little button on the remote control? You know, the one that says MUTE? press it if you're that annoyed, or get your weather elsewhere.

Yes, but why should I if it's not needed? You can listen to your rock on B101 or on the countless other rock stations, TWC doesn't need to be the hundredth "station" to host it.

Happy 4th of July! Does anyone have plans? I plan to attend a BBQ and watch fireworks at the beach tonight.

Same here. I'm at Sea Isle City, NJ right now. Weather's great despite a rather strong breeze.

Same. I hope I can make it to the beach if I can't, I'll just go to my friend's back patio and watch the works there.
