The person closest to the audio system controls the Spotify. It used to be a 20-year-old from Denver who had decent taste and had a pretty broad playlist set up. The guy there now is from here and ergo I hear Wagon Wheel approximately 25 times per week.
This may qualify as an OSHA violation. You should file a complaint and seek redress.
Yesterday someone backed a truck into a utility pole and took out fiber to most of the town, ergo Spotify was unavailable to our salesman. After an hour of silence it dawned on me to check and sure enough, I could hit the bluetooth system from my phone, so I put RadioParadise on for the rest of the day. It went over well except there was a Fever Ray song that raised eyebrows. But alas, the internet is back on and I just heard Wagon Wheel.

I send an email with a question.
Company responds with more questions.
I clarify, with screenshots.
Company escalates problem.
I repeat scenario with new higher level tech support.
They call and walk me through the steps to solve the problem.
Now it's happening again and I need to know how to fix it and did I write down the answer? I did not. My email trail is useless!
Google Fu, Scott !
My motto, serving me well for a very long time: I'm not the first to see this problem.

I recorded so much of my own synth work onto a Portastudio cassette back in the day. So I still have the cassettes, but nothing to play them on. And two of the four channels are gonna be reversed if I use a regular cassette player. But, so much of it was experimenting that I don't want to send tapes labelled "Homework 4" off to some digitizing company and waste a lot of money/time.
I still have an old Tascam Portastudio like that - it still works but I don't have a regular cassette deck to copy the songs to anymore and I haven't invested in any digital transfer gadgetry.
At least you can do that. I diligently put a lot of my past digital life onto Zips and now I can't find anyone to read them. I would ask you, but I can't decipher my disk-naming scheme so I don't know if the disks I have are the ones I care about. And by "care about," I mean "mildly curious about." So whatever's there, except for nostalgia, I would be better off re-building or forgetting about. Hell, half of it's probably in (Aldus) Freehandâ¢

Having to resurrect a Power Mac G3 to find the floppy drive was dead. Then going through all those floppies, Zips, Syqest disks then transferring all that to 1 thumb drive all to find my past graphics and web designs from a past life.
99% should be completed today.

You are not, I assure you. It's not a bad song, I'm sure the band would be fine too. I think ptooey might have mentioned it and I was in the same place as you... until I looked it up and I thought "oh, sure, that song" and now I do hear it everywhere. It's like that Mariah Carey Christmas song; I thought that was a cover of something from the 50s... it's just so pop-perfect it feels like I've known it forever... and maybe we did: Bob Dylan wrote the chorus in the 70s. Did it get used somewhere else in another song? I dunno.
Nope. Also; where's the fiddle player?
I've never heard it before either. I only play music I want to hear and that one doesn't come up in any rotation the stations I listen to play. Now after listening to about 20 seconds or so I too am a member of the No Wagon Wheel club.
As you could imagine, it's a popular song in Appalachia and particularly around Raleigh. I don't think I'd heard it until I moved to NC. I remember playing an open mic night years ago at a local bar and while people were signing in the guy running it was explaining about how many songs and how long people could play and then added: "Oh, and no fucking 'Wagon Wheel'". First time I had heard that phrase.
Iâve sat around many a campfire with musicians hanging out. Inevitably, someone will kick into âWagon Wheel.â Everybody knows how to sing it, or learns quickly, plus it is easy an easy song for harmonizing. I donât recall hearing it on the radio though. Letâs see if RP will put it on the rotation
I'm another who has never heard this before that I can recall.
Yeah, it's ok. If I never heard it again that would be ok, too.
25 times a week and there would be a problem.
