SiriusXM

So back in October when I got a new (to me) vehicle, it came equipped with a Sirius Satellite Radio. I was given a trial subscription, and all was good. Here are some of my favorite channels.

  • 52 “Electric Area” – Bigroom House & DJ Mixes
  • 51 “BPM” – Dance Hits
  • 122 “NPR Now” – NPR News & Conversation
  • 125 “SiriusXM Patriot” – Conservative Talk
  • 126 “SiriusXM Urban View” – African-American Talk

As you can tell, I like EDM and talk radio the most. Some other channels are cool also. On long road trips, I just flip through all the music, lingering on a channel for a few songs and then moving to the next musical genre so I can stay awake.

My trial subscription is done and I found a deal where you pay six dollars a month for six months. That’s cool, but after that it goes up to something like 18 dollars a month – that’s not cool. For that kind of money I could buy about ten songs a month, and make my own radio station on the iPod touch. Oh well, I’ll worry about that in July. For now you will see me rocking out to EDM or nerding out to Talk Radio as I cruise through Texas with a few dollars less to spend on Slurpees and stuff.

Light Nightclub

Hello Light Nightclub. Unfortunately, we started off on the wrong foot. You said the doors opened at 10:00 pm, but in reality you made everyone stand in line until 10:30. You had the gall to charge me $12.00 for a single small can of Red Bull. You claimed that “The production and artistry you will experience at LIGHT are something you won’t see anywhere else in the world”, but six dancers on poles intermittently throughout the night is not earth shattering. Luckily, we became friends as your DJs, sound equipment, and light shows turned out to be awesome. A huge shoutout to DJ Stellar and his supporting cast who made the night a truly special one! I would love to see you perform again some day. The party went on until 4:00 am and everyone was having a wonderful time. 🙂

Bassjackers EDC 2014

If you are interested, this video from the Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) in Las Vegas in June of 2014 will give you a good idea of what it is like to see the Bassjackers perform live. Be careful, because it is rated R for language. The following quote is from the description on YouTube.

“On Friday, June 20, 2014 Bassjackers had the honor of closing the MainStage of the infamous Electric Daisy Carnival festival in Las Vegas Nevada. It is also called the sunrise set, as the show starts in darkness and ends with the bright sun rising over the horizon.”

The Bassjackers’ podcasts can be found on iTunes or here on their YouTube channel. I highly recommend the podcasts to help get you moving on those cold Winter days. 🙂
