I think I'll have it locked on US-1...

Stopless Summer

For your 4th of July weekend enjoyment, nothing tops the Stopless Summer on US1! Starting at 5 PM ET on Thursday, July 3rd, it’s continuous hit music without stopping, the music keeps moving. You’ll get all of today’s hits along with some of those great “oh wow” '90s tunes, such as Wreckx-N-Effect’s “Rump Shaker,” Gillette’s “Short, Short Man,” and Arrested Development’s “Mr. Wendell.” Happy Birthday America – from US1!
