Cool Site #2 - Pandora Radio
Pandora Internet Radio
Create custom stations starting with artist or song or genre. Say you enter "Wilco", it'll play a Wilco tone the a couple other artists they think you will like, for example mine loaded Cake, then Whiskeytown, then The Beatles, and then Wilco again. It's kind of like radio Russian roulette. Very cool!
Wilco's latest CD...
Wilco (The Album)
