by RighteousTwin on 2007-04-01 21:06:15 the channel isn't bad, it's focused on a lot of older bands and there's no DJ blabbing a lot inbetween songs, which is nice

I was convinced that this was an April Fools joke.

I really hope this thread turns into an obnoxious O&A/Stern fan fight. Those are usually pretty entertaining. Wackbag and Sternfannetwork have to be the two most idiotic message boards around.

I've listen to some of these stations and they just aren't that good. They say punk stations but come on. They never play any G.B.H or Stiff Little Fingers or Buzzcocks or NoFX or Strung out or Against me! or Lagwagon or One Man Army or Screeching Weasel or X or Germs or Black Flag(before Henry ruined them) or anything else worth listening to. I could list lots of other shit but they just don't play it!
Re: SIRIUS Punk Channel 29 launched
by Someone on 2007-04-01 22:29:17 I wonder how Fugazi / Ian Mackaye feel about their music being on a pay radio station.
Yeah, I still don't understand why someone thought enough people would be willing to pay for radio.
Re: SIRIUS Punk Channel 29 launched
by Someone on 2007-04-01 23:30:18 I thought when the merger took place, they said that no channels would be nixed. Either way, I can't see them wanting to cancel Fungus in favor of Sirius' channel, seeing as Fungus has been around much longer and the two sound identical lineup-wise.

by Someone on 2007-04-01 23:30:54 What's the big deal? People with XM have had the exact same thing all along.

Re: SIRIUS Punk Channel 29 launched
by Someone on 2007-04-02 10:44:47 all this channel ever plays is the fucking Who, I swear, every other song is by them
Re: SIRIUS Punk Channel 29 launched
by Someone on 2007-04-02 11:33:16
Yeah- it used to be a channel that only played the WHO, which I really liked as well. But this station is great. I love my satelite radio, well worth the monthly fee. Entertainment costs money these days whether it be CD's movies, books, magazines, cable... etc...

by Someone on 2007-04-03 01:41:56
i'll add to that... since i've been listening to it when it aired on sunday i've heard youth brigade multiple times, chaos uk, a few GBH, a bunch of sex pistols and the clash, the jam, vibrators, exploited a bunch of times (old stuff), adolsecents, decendents, the business, 4 skins (ACAB), uk subs, circle jerks, black flag, reagan youth, stiff little fingers, blitz, buzzcocks, the damned, gang of four, subhumans, misfits, generation x, danzig, toy dolls, DRI, motorhead agnostic front etc etc etc... pretty much my whole CD collection.
Re: SIRIUS Punk Channel 29 launched
by Someone on 2007-04-03 14:48:52 This station is AMAZING!!! They play all the stuff I was HOPING Faction would play when I first got Sirius. Finally, a TRUE punk station-let's hope they stick around!!!!
Re: SIRIUS Punk Channel 29 launched
by krotix on 2007-04-09 16:33:29 the channel is ok, they pretty much stick to a very tight heavy rotation list ,and then they slip in some head turning stuff. heres hoping that bands send their shit to sirius for airplay and thus get something going as far as 2007 and onwards. it would be sad for me to think that this punk 29 station becomes an updated version of all the stupid fm stations i had to tolerate in high school (i'm 47)!!!
