The new radio station in town is playing some amazing toonage. As I tweeted earlier, it’s like leafing through my yearbooks – crazy how vividly those songs bring back memories. Doode, I can almost feel a hangover from 1989.
This station couldn’t have come at a better time as P’s audio preferences are being formed. With the help of Rewind 94.9, our morning and afternoon drive times give me a chance to counteract the crap Doug exposes her to, namely classical snoozic (not all of it is bad, but there is a time and place) and talk radio (there is NO time and NO place for this, period). Is he deliberately trying to turn my bay-bee into a nerd?
But my worries were eased this morn when we caught a song straight out of Mommy’s golden youth and my little gem proclaimed:
Bon Jovi Rocks! for those of you not hip to toddler talk. Hells yeah they do.
And it’s nice to get affirmation from my newest BFF, Emilie (aka Doritos4Dinner) – I always want to hit the vending machine when I think of her:
Note to self: Find one of these passes
Note to self: Keep hubs away from blog
Lest we forget the glory that is the greatest band e-vah:
It’s up to you parents – you are the only thing standing between your kid(s) and Brittany Montana. Don’t let ‘em down.

Love this, love her, and love you! she keeps getting cuter & cuter everyday. I love when my girls like something only to realize that it was something I listened to in my teens. It totally freaks Giggles out. Badly.

OMG — I cannot get into this station. I was a diehard The Sound fan and it kills me that it is gone. I appreciate the music – I loved it – but I miss having the variety of music The Sound provided.
PS. Bon Jovi is totally hot.

That last post was mine… ugh! Have no idea what happened. That is Shannanb that doesn’t like Rewind. Not CWB. Sorry!

I had to endure many hours of talk radio (sports! politics! shoot me now!!) on our trip to Iowa and vow to keep Paige so busy with good music that I never have to listen to it with her. What is it with men and their boring stations?! At least our daughters have us to look up to in the music department. That’s at least some consolation. Though my luck, Paige will decide that talk radio is the BEST.THING.EVER. Thank God the driver controls the radio (at least in our car)
Bon Jovi = total hotness.

How darling! I adore P and love watching her little personality unfold.
Being a child of the 80s, I am excited about a station that features that decade, but I’m pretty bummed it had to come by losing The Sound.
No longer do I have a place that will play the emo tunes of The Cure, some hard core Nine Inch Nails (Closer reminds me of college and for that it will be revered eternally) or some more obsure Peter, Bjorn and John.
Oh well. Such are the tradeoffs for Gloria, Electric Avenue and Our Lips Are Sealed.

Amy – my kids have been rockin’ to Bon Jovi since they were in-utero!
And My Life is my personal anthem. LOVE IT!
Go, P!

This is hilarious! You didn’t by any chance make it out to the 80′s retro prom held at the Nutter Center earlier this year? It was a riot.
