I turned on a radio a little before 10PM (Central time zone) (to a station
not owned by the company that made the list) and it seemed to be some sort
of concert. It might have been the benefit that most of the TV channels
were carrying, I don't know. (BBC America was doing a really cool concert
and we had *that* on.) "Bridge Over Troubled Water" was the song I came
in on. I wonder how many of these stations were carrying this concert?
:)
(It was followed by someone singing "God Bless America" and then Willie
Nelson singing "America the Beautiful", and it ended at 10. If anyone
wants to confirm or refute my theory that it was the same concert that
the television channels were carrying, I figure that ought to be enough
info.)
