They effin' RAWK.<BR/><BR/>The obligatory Clear Channel classic rock station in our town plays a TON of Led Zep, but they actually do branch out and play more than just Whole Lotta Love. We get Kashmir, Dancing Days, Immigrant Song, and Black Dog. So it's not so bad. And they also play one of my faves, Molly Hatchet's "Flirting with Disaster."dguzmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01811101661607351661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3146715698090395935.post-34216171829858026902008-03-11T22:27:00.000-04:002008-03-11T22:27:00.000-04:00If we are talking about NE Ohio, does that include...If we are talking about NE Ohio, does that include Dayton?
