Well, it's come to this: It's midnight and I'm listening to a heavy metal cover version of "The Wheels On The Bus Go Round and Round" on pirate short wave radio on Sternradio. Is life great, or what!?

Listening via the SDR in Traverse City, Michigan ...

0102 UTC: "Man of Constant Sorrow" cover by Leo.
0105 UTC: "Sweet Home Evolution" by Max Nussbaum, a mashup song of "Fat Bottom Girls" by Queen and "Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd.
0110 UTC: "Memphis (Live)" by Johnny Rivers.
0112 UTC: SSTV transmission; too noisy to decode well here.
0114 UTC: "In the Air Tonight" cover by Leo.
0119 UTC: Male-spoken W.E.I.R.D. Radio ID repeated a few times.
0120 UTC: Another song; the audio's slowly losing the battle with the noise.
