Strong signal with some noise in western New York, SINPO 54334

2236z  "The Confession" by Joe Walsh
2239z  "Jesus Just Left Chicago" by ZZ Top
2240z  When song cuts out the dj says "It wasn't supposed to do that", the song gets back on track
2242z  ID as "Thunder Chicken Radio", with chicken sfx
2242z  "Flakes" by Frank Zappa
2257z  "The Mob Rules" by Black Sabbath (or so Shazam says)
2259z  "Farm on the Freeway" by Jethro Tull
2305z  "Ball of COnfusion" by Tesla
2310z  "Humans Being" by Van Halen, and that's when it was time time for dinner!

I think this may be the first time I've heard Thunder Chicken Radio!
