Voodoo Radio
Posted on Sunday, 21st January 2007 at 9:50pm7 Comments Ensuing
Something very strange and mystical has been happening to me lately. For the last few months I have had a radio present in my bathroom so I can listen to the radio while I have a shower, and every time I turn on the radio to have a shower a Nickleback song is playing.
Every. Single. Time.
Different variables do not matter; times of day, radio station, (Nova, 92.9, 96fm, CoastFM, I swear even Triple J has forsaken me) none change the outcome. The Nickleback monster always intrudes upon my shower just as I lather my shampoo.
Do I take this as a sign? I don’t know. Is the radio cursed by a voodoo priest that prays to the Nickleback gods? Maybe. Are tiny little trolls that live inside my radio trying to turn me into a Nickleback loving zombie? Possibly. Is Nickleback paying Perth radio stations thousands of dollars to ruin my showering experience? Totally. Will I get indexed on Google under ‘Nickleback Zombies’? Fuck yeah.
All I know is that if I hear one more Nickleback song I’m going to smash the radio (and it’s trolls) into tiny little bits, then put the bits into a container and attach lead weights to it and let it corrode at the bottom of the ocean.
Then we shall see who has their pants around their feet!

Reply to this comment.I think to me what it says more is how much flanel-wearing bogans there are in perth that the radio stations are forced to play bogan anthems like “photograpgh’ constantly. Been looking mighty fine there on your recent pics Kittarina ;D

It could also be a sign that a visit to the Great White North may be in order (and I’m sure that Nickleback is a better sign than Celine Dion).

Reply to this comment.Let me get this straight – Triple J was playing Nickelback? That’s can’t be right. Was it as a joke, a prank, a parody?

Reply to this comment.Chuq, I can’t be sure, but one time I swear they played Nickleback or another band that sounded far too much like them.
