No stations in Central FL play anything other than Evenflow and Alive
Well, if I were to do an album-by-album breakdown of what gets played in the Central Florida area, there would be no sense in including anything from their albums after Vitalogy. It would look like this:
Ten: Alive, Even Flow, Jeremy, Black
Vs.: Daughter, Dissident, Small Town
Vitalogy: Corduroy, Better Man
Other: Yellow Ledbetter, I Got Id
Can't escape from the common rule...

I was in jumbo video (if your not canadian, it's like a cheap man's blockbuster) the other week, and they had the radio on and they were playing all those yesterdays.
I remember recording all of Vs. off the radio two weeks before it came out, they played it with limited commercial interruption on some station around here, it's been a long time.

I know XM does a better job than the fm stations on playing more than just the hits, but I was still shocked (and pleasantly surprised) to hear Lowlight on the XM station Lucy this past Sunday night about 11:20pm EDT.
Chicago 07/11/95; Fort Lauderdale 10/07/96; Chicago 06/29/98; St. Louis 07/02/98; Katowice 06/15/00; West Palm Beach 04/11/03; Tampa 04/13/03; West Palm Beach 06/11/08; Tampa 06/12/08
I'm assuming that this was on 88.5. it's the only good radio station in Ottawa (besides cbc). They generally play pretty good stuff on the weekends. I guess that this was especially for 4-20...? On Saturday's 'Ongoing History of New Music' (sindicated from the edge), he had the history of grunge. They played two temple of the dog songs, and the Mammasan demo tape. I thought that that was a pretty rare occurrence for the radio. Good to hear from another fan in Ottawa...
Yeah it was 88.5...and it was actually a weekend special on "hidden" album tracks...so i kinda cheated, but still cool to hear it on the radio!
Shows: Montreal 98, Barrie 98, Montreal 00, Montreal 03, Montreal 05, Ottawa 05, Toronto 06, Vancouver Night 1 08 (EV), Vancouver Night 2 08 (EV), MSG1 08, MSG2 08, Montreal Night 2 08 (EV), Toronto Night 1 08 (EV), Toronto 09, Hartford 11 (EV), Ottawa 11, Ottawa 16, Ottawa 22.
In Indy, X103 took a whole weekend and played every Pearl Jam song in alphabetical order to promote the release of the Avocado album. It was weird to hear a song like present tense followed by a song like push me pull me.

That's the same way i heard Vitalogy for the first time....i still remember being absolutely blown away by each track...and surprised that i recognized Not For You!
