Lol. I had an early day at work (gotta love January construction!) and I came home whistling and humming BYOB. My fiancé was home for lunch and she says "Ugh please don't. I hate that song". I told her she's gonna have to learn to like it since 98.7 has been playing it (she is one of 3 listeners. That and ALT Nation). That's ALT's target listener. 36 year old suburban female who grew up on Hanson and thinks SOAD is TOO heavy and hard 😂

It was the chorus of the song and I kept singing LIES FROM THE TABLECLOTH and she knew it lol

Everybody’s going to the party; have a real good time. Dancing in the desert, blowing up the sunshine. Why do they always send the poor!!!????

Love the song as it was so poignant to the scam Iraq War.

Maybe she is feeding you too many lies from the tablecloth? ;)

1. We have NO tablecloth

2. As far as feeding me anything, she told me when we started dating that "The only thing a Jewish wife makes for dinner is reservations".
She wasn't lying 😂

She is not into hard rock or metal at all. I am not allowed to listen to Octane, Turbo or sometimes even Ozzy's Boneyard with her in the car. But there's times I get in after her and she leaves Coffeehouse on 🙄

I do enjoy some Liquid Metal, but it is not my first choice. Heaven forbid I leave that on in her car.

It isn't only her. I've had a number of significant others who hated speed/thrash/power metal.

Not my bag either. Other than Disturbed, but I am not sure that counts.

I'm noticing more gold and more 00s Active Rock tracks today. They still have to play the odd current, but so be it. If it keeps in this direction, that would be great.

Now promote and let listeners know you don't have to sit through Motley Crue and Whitesnake to hear those 90s and 00s tracks you like. Might be a good position!
