Leah and I were RV camping in a very remote "designated dark sky" zone in S. Utah last night. We had no electricity or running
water, but loved listening to Franny all evening (she is our favorite DJ) We are also volunteer DJ's on KAFM radio in Grand
Junction, CO |

I'm probably the only truck driver who listens to The Loft. I found channel 50 I first subscribed in the summer of 2004.
At home in Shreveport, La you have a choice of country, beer swelling classic rock or hiphop. Thank God for XM and
The Loft. So thanks Mike and Franny and other Loft personalities, both past and present. |

I agree with most of what was said below by other fans. I too listen to the Coffee House and the Bridge to get what I don't
hear on the loft: core singer-songwriters like Shawn Colvin, Tracy Chapman, Carly Simon and James Taylor. In fact, The Loft
once played most of these songsmiths, but it has been a very long time. I don't know what happened, because there is plenty
of overlap with other artists across channels (e.g. Bruce Springsteen, Damien Rice, Van Morrison, Jackson Browne, etc.) Can
you bring back some of these core singer-songwriters to the loft, and lighten the alternative country twang just a bit? It
would be great to hear you dig deeply into the new Pete Yorn album, for instance, and less into Steve Earle, who gets plenty
of air play currently. Why do I feel passionate about this? Because you know as well as I do that the Loft is programmed by
someone who cares enough to share his personality with us, unlike the Bridge and the Coffee House, which are canned computer
machinations. The Loft has better blending between songs, plays deeper cuts, and showcases a great variety of artists. If
you make some of these minor tweaks, including an increase in artist separation (e.g. Steve Earle or Bob Dylan not playing
every five hours), you'll be the #1 channel in the rock band on Sirius-XM. But you already are my #1. |

I would love to hear more of the old loft's "core" artists, including singer-songwriters that the coffee house and the bridge
have appropriated as their own. please bring back deep cuts from billy joel, elton john, jackson browne, paul simon, sarah
mclachlan, david gray, jamie cullum and other singer-songwriters who play the piano! |

Have always listened to the Loft most often - Mike Marrone is the best dj on radio - but lately sometimes the music is getting
a little too divergent from what I have heard for years - not sure if I am happy where it is going. And what is with the Spectrum
(the old Cafe)?
They sound like some top 40 FM station - too many commercials about the Spectrum and cutting into the songs all the time -
cheesy for satellite radio....by the way, have a lifetime subscription. Hey, what happened to Pete Fornatelle? Liked him alot! |

I am really sorry to see Jerry Rubino gone. Other than Mike, he was the best! Loved his playlists. I hope someone carries
on with "In Spite of All the Danger". That was the only show I know of that was about new music coming out. I've found so
many new artists and titles just by listening, so please keep that show on. I still like the New Loft, but not as much as
the old. Sometimes the New Loft gets a bit TOO eclectic for me. Keep up the good work Mike! I still LOVE the Wake Up Sets
in the morning. |

Have been a "Disorderly" for about 5 years, have 4 subscriptions to Sirius.
Your doing fine but I do miss the 24-7 extreme variety that was heart and soul of the old Disorder. Megless ran, what I guess
was, a once in a lifetime radio experience. It would be great to hear a little Count Basie and Miles along with the Stones
during the morning wake-up showes. A little less of the smooth, singer/songwriter male voice at 6am would be great.
That all said, you're still the Best Radio on Radio!
Sincerely, Joe from N.W. Colorado, near Steamboat Springs |

I'm a glass artist and I have depended on The Loft to get me through, inspire me, and introduce me to new music. You guys
have never failed me. . .until now. The new show at noon, while playing some good stuff on occasion, is playing hiphop right
now. The lack of that style of music was one that made me love The Loft and quite honestly, you got subscribers because people
visiting my studio flipped over the great music. Several have mentioned that the midday lineup isn't what they signed up for
and I have to agree.
I just turned my system to the local NPR station for a while. The Loft is the *only* reason I have satellite radio. I so miss
the what I loved about you. Please, indulge me? |

Hi there,
Just found you guys through Franny...who was kind enough to show an interest in our music. I've just recently moved back here
in the area (Columbia, MD.) from England and was hoping to get into some sort of a scene here. I love the ethos that you have
and the killer music you play on your shows.
Anyway, just thought I'd say hello...
Cheers,

I am signing your guestbook with mixed emotions. I was ecstatic that Shree is back on Sirius but disappointed in both the
time slots and the fact that the Mansion of Fun is now only 3 hours instead of 6. Although to be honest, I was amazed that
somebody as busy as David Johansen could do a weekly 6 hour show. Sirius Disorder was the best radio station/format ever and
the Mansion of Fun was/is the best program. Fortunately I have a Stiletto 2 so I can record the program as 12-3am is when
most people are sleeping, myself included. The Sunday replay is kind of lousy also as Sundays are spent running around or
watching football. Give Shree a normal time slot.
I am glad Meg is back on the air. I think you should give Ghosty a slot also. I am thankful that I am getting a little taste
of Sirius Disorder back and I do like the Loft. I just wish I had both choices all the time.

Hi guys,
I love all of your shows. I listen mostly from 4:30 pm to 3:00 am. I have to admit though, I have a soft spot for Franny.
When she's not on I am really disappointed. I'm on the east coast so I catch her mostly around midnight or so. Jerry is also
a big favorite. Keep up the great shows.........
Sincerely

Very disapointed with all the new programming.Why did they have to pick a great station like the Loft to add all this garbage
like Vin,Lou Reed,etc.It's like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.Perhaps all the suits should have come up a XM
pastry channel,because all this is fluff and filler.Stick to the music Mike,forget all these washed up rock stars,Vin,Dave
Marsh.You had something good going,I can't say that now.Looks like its time to bring some CD's along in the car when the fluff
and filler comes on. |

Mike,
As a new listener yet old time rocker, I gotta say this is the best music station/venue/ that I have ever heard.
The programming is off the chart, hope it continues |

Just dropping by to say I appreciate all the good music I've been hearing on your station. I've been an xm subscriber for
a couple of years but only in the last few months have I been patient enough to really listen to what u have and I'm delighted.
So many talented musicians and your dj's and programs are excellent. Like the new stuff also. U should think about having
Venice do a Loft Session, I heard they have a new CD coming out sometime next year. Happy Holidays, thanks for the music! |

I was in morning w/ the loss of DISORDER. But now out of the ashes I am high above the ruins in The Loft~ Everyday gets better

These are some tough times on XM Radio for me! I am punching those station buttons more than I ever have....I'm just not
satisfied with what I'm hearing. I've always been a heavy loft listener and it seems to me, the channel is surviving intact.
I like the fact that Coffee House is right next door although there is an extremely irritating popping noise than is transmitted
on that station. Someone should fix that. But I digress....Still love the Loft and the disorder show will be nice. It was
the BEST channel on Sirius and I'm really sorry that the whole channel didn't survive. I could listen to it all day. Thanks
Mike, Franny and Jerry for keeping the integrity of XM 50 intact. I only wish that XM hadn't trashed channel 12, X-Country.
That was an unbelievable move on someone's part. |

Disorder's motto: "Absolute torture for any self-respecting radio programmers. Good thing we don't know any."
The Loft: "Hi, we're your new programmers, nice to meet you. Do you want some Zoloft?" |

Mike,
Great mix of music. I've been introduced to so many new (to me) artists. Now with Vin and Meg I am really excited. I came
of age in the early 70's listening to WNEW with Vin on the overnight. Later with Meg, so it should be a great addition. |

my faith and trust in your very able hands to make this work and keep The Loft as the best station on the planet. |

First I was ecstatic. Now I am bummed. From what I have read about what is coming, it appears that more is less, for me. I
do not want to hear more talking, interviewing...I don't really care about the lives of rock stars. I think the amount of
talking Mike, Jerry and Franny do is just right. I left terrestrial when the sports jocks started talking politics. Please
just let us have the great music that was the Loft.The Loft was already pretty perfect. While I think I understand what probably
happened here (no choice but to take it), I am not able to understand how adding people, salaries and costs to the Loft helps
Sirius, especially if the station is not going to be as good as it used to be. I hope to be surprised, but it seems the history
of our collective lives is that all good radio stations disappear. Couldn't the Loft just be left alone? |
| Are you an XM subscriber? |
Yes, But I am not as excited as I was a couple of days ago. |

After listening to all the changes in stations for the past week, I must say I'm very nervous. Most of what made XM desirable
is going away. I was SO afraid that The Loft was going away as well. If that happened, I would also go away. The Loft has
always been my favorite station on XM. You guys know how to do it! I hope they don't make you change the programming too
much. Yours has always been the best. I've found so much new music on The Loft which I would have never even known about
without listening. Try to keep up the good work. I see you have many new shows coming. I hope they don't take away too
much of the personaity that is The Loft. I wish you guys luck. Hope things get better, but I'm nervous that they may not....and
not just for The Loft, but for the new programming in general. |

Change is not good nor is it healthy when something unbroken is "fixed". Bring back Disorder. Bring back Mansion of Fun in
its original slot on Fridays. Bring back Ghosty. I am not happy with these changes. Paid subscribers deserve to get what
they want and get what they need. The Loft is no replacement for Disorder. I subscribed to Sirius JUST for Mansion and Disorder
and now I don't get to hear either. I am not up at midnight. I work. I may very well unsubscribe if Sirius XM doesn't listen
to the ones who pay them. I almost bought a portable radio for the gym so I could listen to Disorder. That plan has been killed. |

Always thought XM was more serious (no pun) about music of the two services - and I had subscribed to both. Hope the merger
does not ruin a great thing. Glad you guys are there. |

Wow. I've really gotten turned off by music over the years. Most of what's on these days is so vapid and manufactured.
I'd gotten to the point where all I listened to was talk, news, and the comedy channel.
Then, I found The Loft. All I can say is...unbelievable! I'm suddenly beginning to like music again! Please keep up the
good work and survive the XM/Sirius purge. If I could ask for anything, it would be to lobby for a higher bit rate. A station
like yours deserves it! |

Greatly enjoy listening to all your shows throughout the day (when I'm able). Often it's as if I'm listening to my iPod. (And
Apple should give you a commission since I've purchased many after hearing them on your shows). Absolutely love the diversity
- both new and old; and since I'm somewhat older (56) greatly enjoy hearing the old classics that are hardly ever played these
days such as: 8:05, Nazz version of Hello it's me, Kind woman, To a flame (?), etc. But I'm also relishing the new great
songs. I should have reviewed your play list before making a couple of suggestions so forgive me if your playlist already
includes them, but here goes, Circus Maximus - Wind, Clapton's version of: Somewhere Over the Rainbow.
Thanks much! And I'm doing my best to spread the word about this great station.

The Loft has become my primary XM station. When I am home...the Loft is on. I'm a music junkie. Love singer/songwriters.
The Loft has introduced me to and opened horizons to so much new music. I love it completely! Don't change a thing. I
sincerely thank you for doing what you do. |

I loved the song Jackson Brown was talking about his band( the Dirt Band?) recorded after he left. It was written by greg
copeland and ? and it had some verse about buying or giving you a headstone to lay your head. Anyway it is a great song I
have never heard and would like to buy it. Can you help? I might have some of my details screwy, I was driving through a
thunderstorm and having a hard time concentrating and follow the program. Thanks. Lauren |
