I Siriusly Like Sattelite Radio

For my dad's anniversary gift he received a Sirius Radio. The main reason he got it was for Howard Stern but all the extra channels are certainly a nice perk along with Howard. He's only had it for around a day now but I decided to take advantage of the subscription he got and listened to it online. Unfortunately you can't listen to Howard yet on it but I hear that eventually you will be able to, all of the music channels are indeed available though which is good. Today I listened to a few channels for a few hours or so and I must say I really enjoyed listening to it. I'm not a big fan of the radio, personally I would rather listen to full albums opposed to individual songs but I was very surprised with the good quality of music. There are three channels dedicated to classic rock and all of them played quality stuff, and to my surprise they were playing classic rock songs that I don't believe I've ever heard on the radio. One of the classic rock channels is called "Classic Vinyl" which just plays songs for the 60's and 70's, then there is "Classic Rewind" which mainly focuses on the 70's and 80's, and lastly there is "The Vault" which focuses on "deep album cuts, b-sides and rarities from the Golden Age of Rock." This station did indeed live up to its name, as I said earlier I was hearing songs that I've never previously heard on public radio. On top of the classic rock they cover every other genre and flipping between other channels I heard some truly great songs from "The Foo Fighters" to "The Raconteurs" (Jack White's new band) and "Nirvana." Maybe one day I'll even hop on the satellite radio bandwagon, I guess I would probably join Sirius so I would go onto my dad's account and just pay an extra $6 a month for subscription opposed to opening up a new account of my own and pay $13. In the end I was pleasantly surprised with the music that was played and for those "Rolling Stones" fans there is a whole station dedicated to their music.
