ShutUpJohn!

I’ll bitch and moan about John Aielli but I love KUT.  I’ve been a member here and there over the last 30 years, first joining when I was in high school with money from bailing hay over the summer.  I think I joined during Phil Music after the city council meeting back when Phil Music really was fill music.  I remember anxiously awaiting the end of the city council meetings telling the politicians to shut up so I could hear Phil Music.

I donated tonight to my all time favorite radio show, Left of the Dial and the best DJ on the radio, Jeff McCord.

But I did mention that John Aielli needs to go.  You should too.

More on complaints to KUT soon.

Yet another new record today.  I did not think I could beat my earlier record of 8 minutes, but John blew it out of the water today!  I’ve been busy at work and didn’t turn on the radio until 11:25am or so, and as soon as I turned it on I hear John Aielli doing his typical “rythm scat” where he gives us his lousy imitation of some tune.. “bum bum bum bum”

He can’t just play the song he’s referring to because he thinks it’s much better to just hum out the tune himself since he’s such a musical genius and everyone needs to hear his interpretation.  Whatever, it’s annoying as hell and the way he has the bass turned way up on his mic makes it doubly so.

The new record, turn on the radio and hear John “bum bum bumm”ing away, immediately turn off the radio..  3 seconds!  Way to go, John!

What’s your John Annoyance record?

Just another example of why John is so annoying to most of us:  “I was up at the crack of dawn… I don’t know why they call it the crack of dawn, it sort of slides in.  So I was up at the crack of dawn… it looks like a crack through a window… and the birds were going nuts!”

Jesus, the guy just loves to hear himself speak.
