When it comes to the radio broadcasters here in town, y'all aren't shy about sharing your opinions.

One reader, Bob Jarvis, passed along a little ditty he crafted after witnessing all the recent changes at 98.1 KVET-FM, including the departures of several well-known personalities and a tweaked playlist that seems to favor recent songs over many of the classic country hits listeners had grown to expect over the years.

He's certainly not alone in his displeasure. Emails about KVET-FM land in my inbox on a pretty regular basis.

But, let's be fair here. It's not just KVET-FM. The other stations are likely doing things that bother you, as well. If that's the case, shoot me an email. I'd love to hear from you and perhaps include you in a future column.

I'm not looking to stir things up; I promise. There's a lot to like about Austin radio — and I'd love it if you sent praise for your favorite DJs my way. I'd be happy to put that in print and online, too.

The goal here is to give everyone a chance to be heard.

That said, Jarvis gave me permission to share a portion of his "remake" of George Strait and Allan Jackson's "Murder on Music Row." So, here ya go:

Nobody saw them running

From Congress Avenue;

They never found the fingerprints

Or the weapon that was used;

But some dudes killed country music,

Cut out its heart and soul;

They got away with murder

On KVET radio.

The almighty dollar

And deejays' lust for fame,

Slowly killed tradition,

And for that, someone should hang;

They dumped ol Sammy Allred,

And the evidence will show

That murder was committed

On KVET radio.

For the steel guitars no longer cry

And the fiddles barely play;

But drums and rock n' roll guitars

Are mixed up in your face;

Ol' Hank's no longer heard

On KVET radio —

Since they committed murder

And axed Tom Allen's show.

Thanks, Bob.

Around the dial ...

At least two U.S. radio stations have dumped Rush Limbaugh's show in recent days, but the conservative host is still on the air here in Austin on NewsRadio 590 KLBJ-AM. Radio-Info.com reports broadcasters in Hilo, Hawaii, and Pittsfield, Mass., stopped running Limbaugh's show after he referred to a college student advocating for improved access to contraceptives as a "slut" and a "prostitute." A number of advertisers announced they were abandoning the show, at least temporarily, including AOL, Netflix and Sears. Limbaugh has since apologized. ...
