I agree with the idea that variety is good and in the past when I wanted to hear something other than prog metal I'd pop in a cd or switch to another station. Most of the time while at work I want to hear Prog metal and I always new I could count on the station for that. One of the things I've always liked about the station is the new bands that it has turned me onto. As far as the classic stuff is concerned I'm pretty much aware of what's out there (with I few exceptions, I gotta check out more Marillion!).
Yeah I like variety but I like it when I want it (the control freak in me). In any case I'm (as always) deeply appreciative of Chan's hard work and as other's have said it's his station he should do what he wants.
I also realize that just as the station has been responsible for making me aware of dozens of newer bands, by adding classic stuff to the playlist it may turn some of our younger prog head friends onto the forefathers of prog metal. I'm sure there are some young Sx fans who have never listened to Kansas and when they do will be blown away. Maybe the station should consider having some blocks for classic stuff and some blocks for cutting edge artists.
