Train wrecks = lazy programming. However, if you're doing a countdown show, then there's no point in trying to mix a set -- especially if you're featuring 885 songs that were chosen by listeners. XPN is a great station, so the songs they feature are going to be good to great. In short, XPN is the exception.<br><br>"Live for train wrecks?" Do you really want to live for Billy Idol "White Wedding" into James Blunt "You're Beautiful?" Sorry NYP, but that doesn't fly with me. Train wrecks = lazy programming.

“Live for train wrecks?” Do you really want to live for Billy Idol “White Wedding” into James Blunt “You're Beautiful?”

I love what you're doing here. That is, expanding on what you created at the old Py site and making it fresh. This is great stuff. Jim Ladd should be made aware. I can't wait for future mixes.
