“….and coming up next on the Big Bill All Request Power Hour, we’ve got a request for Led Zeppelin’s ‘Stairway to Heaven’ from Eddie in Staten Island. So, let’s get rockin’!” Bill said into the gigantic microphone that hovered above his control board, flipping the switch to feed the song into the broadcast.

Again, he thought, they want to hear this song again. I can’t believe it. We play this song on the station at least eighteen or nineteen times a day, at all hours, and they call to request it constantly. I don’t understand why people feel the need to hear this song every hour.

He sighed, taking a long drag from a sizzling joint as he lined up his next few records. The station was going to need to spring for another copy of the album pretty soon if they kept spinning this one as often as they were.

“Stairway to Heaven, my ass.” Bill muttered to himself over a still broadcasting microphone. “My stairway to heaven is up to my apartment where I don’t have to listen to this shit all day long.”
