This Is Rock ‘n’ Roll Radio # 947
We try to be an oasis of giddy. We try, and we keep trying, even though this world doesn’t make any sense at all. I find myself getting more pessimistic, more cynical, more resigned to the increasing likelihood that things will never get better. Someday I will believe again. Not today. But someday. I will believe in miracles again someday. This is what rock ‘n’ roll radio sounded like on a Sunday night in Syracuse this week.
This Is Rock ‘n’ Roll Radio with Dana & Carl, Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse on The Spark WSPJ-LP 103.3 and 93.7 FM, and on the web at http://sparksyracuse.org/
