Can someone explain to me what is it with ta and petro they are now piping this 1950's oldies stuff through the speakers at EVERY location, and pilot is doing the same with that disco crap? I think some execs have a hard time seeing that the drivers out here a bit younger than that. (Ok, I'll admit it, I'm more of a metal/alternative fan, but even I would rather hear a modern pop, 80's or even a classical station over these oldies stations playing the same #### over and over!!!)

They probably go by what the majority want or what studies show puts more people in the mindset to spend more money. When I hear rap or metal playing loudly, I leave and go to another truck stop. I never watch TV in a truckstop because I hate sports & cartoons. Management can't please everyone, as much as they would like to.

I've heard hair metal in some of the Pilots.

I think it's up to whoever is working/ management. -
I went in a nice restaurant in Beijing, which was playing some very nice relaxing music. After I sat down, they changed it to very loud rap with big screen TV showing Americans jumping up and down and grabbing their crotch. I complained & they apologized, changed it back to easy listening music and videos, and said they thought that's what Americans prefer. It embarrassed me.
kerosene jockey and botoler Thank this. -
You must be spending alot of time in there for it to bother you! Otherwise just ignore it. -
Ain't that why they made ipods?

I'd rather hear some brain curdling music like Abba or the BeeGees before hearing them dang shower calls over and over.
