~ Canteen Music Dedication FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) ~ |
Q. How long has the Canteen Music Dedication existed? A. The Canteen Music Dedication as a thread began over 2 years ago. It first began as a post on the thread and grew from there.
Q. Why can't I get the music to play in Quicktime or RealPlayer? A. You can adjust it to play in whatever media player you have. You'll have to search for the answers for your specific player. We prefer to use Windows Media Player because more people have access to it. If you are still having issues, FReepmail MoJo2001 for help.
Q. I've requested a song and I still haven't seen it. A. If it's not at the top of the thread, it's probably in the thread itself. Keep scrolling. Also, a running list of songs that we haven't found is kept. We'll keep it until we find the song and play it.
Q. I have been at FR for a long time. Why haven't I seen this thread before? A. Why indeed. Glad you made it finally!
Q. Do the Canteen Deejays mind getting requests on the thread? A. Not at all. One of us can fill it eventually. If not, it will go in The List.
Q. What is an MP3 search engine? A. MP3 search engines are places online that specifically search for MP3s elsewhere. They use either bots, spiders, or numerous other ways to track the songs for their websites. We don't like this at all. If you are caught coming from one of those sites, we'll block your ISP if possible.
Q. I have further questions. Who can I talk to about it? A. You can FReepmail MoJo2001 or Kathy In Alaska with any questions you may have. Or you can FReepmail StarCMC.
Q. Are you going to do anymore themed music dedications? A. Eventually! The plan at the beginning of the year was to do music themes every week. However, we've become request central these days and our time is spent fulfilling music requests. We'll try to do more in the future.
Q. I have an idea for a future music thread. Who can I contact? A. You can contact MoJo2001, Kathy In Alaska, or StarCMC.
Q. Who exactly are the Canteen Deejays? A. acad1228 (he plays the blues daily), Bethbg79, laurenmarlowe, bentfeather, StarCMC, Kathy In Alaska, Drumbo, GoldStarBrother, uncleshag, tomkow6, AZAmericonnie, beachn4fun, hotstreak, and MoJo2001. (Basically, anyone that has space and knows how to do it. Hehe!) As you'll see, each of the Canteen Deejays bring his/her own musical favorites to all of you. That is diversity folks!
Q. How do you determine what music is played at the top? A. Usually it's dictated by requests. However, it began as a quest to introduce as much diversity for people to listen to. Listening to one genre can make you as boring and dull as Ma's taste. (Just kidding--sort of!)
Q. Do you have special music dedications? A. We run special music dedications for Christmas/Hanukkah, Patriotic Music Festivals for Memorial Day and 4th of July. If a very popular artist dies, then we may do one for them. The last two were Barry White and Johnny Cash. Barry White happens to be a favorite for many Canteeners. Q. Some of the artist you play have political agendas that I don't like. I really don't like seeing them played for our Troops and Veterans. A. You're kidding us, right? If you based everything on someone's political views, you would hardly find that many folks you would like. Even at FR there are those that don't get along. This music dedication is about our Troops, Veterans, and their families. We aren't analyzing political views. We're here to ENTERTAIN! Q. Would you mind playing more Alternative music for The Troops? A. We've got quite a few emails lately asking about playing this genre more or another one. We highlight the Alternative music question because folks need to understand something. If you want to hear more of the music you like, request it. We aren't mind readers. Also, we try to provide as much diversity as possible. We just need feedback. Thank you!
We'll add more questions and answers when we receive the same question over and over again!!! Thank you!! |

Its coming up, but Billy Squier isn't considered a One Hit Wonder.
He had hits with:
Everybody Wants You
Rock You Tonight
And of course, the song you requested.
Thanks for jamming with us in the Canteen!!

How about 'Children of the Sun' by Billy Thorpe.
I learned to play guitar, bass and drums listening to that song on the radio.

Hi,
Nope! We were waiting for you to request it. We could go from here until the end of the year with One Hit Wonders threads.
Welcome to the Canteen!
