Dangerous Mission...

Dangerous mission for you

Shoutcast changed the way they handle their categories recently, specifically, they made it impossible list under "Standards" (what, they've never heard of Frank Sinatra ?!?).

Because of this restructuring, millions of music fans really need your help, why not use the share icon on the left of the page to tell others about this radio station and spare them from the inhumanity that is popular, mainstream music?

It's a tough mission, but remember, those less fortunate are counting on you to help them escape from dulldrum of rock & country.
