Like the post, whenever I have Steve/CR on in my taxi I usually get very positive comments from all passengers whatever their ages, unfortunately, most people are force fed the drivel that fills the charts in the UK by radio & tv, and most just go along with the flow of the mainstream. Equally unfortunately its the same with tv programmes, just last night I had a young lady in the car who was obviously very excited about the imminent return of x-factor to our screens, when I informed her I'd rather have pins stuck in my eyes than watch that garbage, the conversation dried up quite quickly!
