MPR tries to rock...
MPR has a new music station, 89.3 - The Current. A few minutes ago I was driving home from Target (great deals on detergent!) and they played a new Low song from the "Great Destroyer". The combination of hearing a new Low song ("When I Go Deaf") on a brand new public radio station made me so happy I was laughing and jumping my butt up and down in my car seat. So, 89.3 (go here to listen) is pretty good. Granted, it's been on the air all of 3 hours.
This all begs the question: Did MPR know I was leaving town? Is this a conspiracy? The worst radio market in the country finally gets a decent new station just as I'm getting ready to move. Damn this cold universe!
