A Compendium of WritingIsMyReligion...

I called up the local classic rock station, out of boredom, and got through on the third try (transcription to the best of my memory):

"Hi, this is Frank 107.5 FM..."
"Hi, I was wondering if I could get some Steely Dan on sometime this afternoon?"
"Ah, yes, Steely Dan...great guys..."
"Yes..."
"Any particular song you wanted?"
"Well, I really like 'Reelin' in the Years'..."
"Yes, that's great....Steely Dan is touring with Michael McDonald this summer..."
"I had heard that..."
"They're coming to Massachusetts..."
"To Boston, yes...."
"Yes, and you can get all the information on our website, 1075frank.com."
"Yes, of course...."
"Who is this for?"
"{WIMR}"
"And where are you from?"
"{My town}"
"Well, thanks for calling, {WIMR}, and we'll be sure to get that on for you soon!"
"Thanks very much!"

They got it on about 1/2 hour later...I was not recorded, apparently, and they actually played "Do It Again" instead of "Reelin' in the Years," but that's cool with me. After they played it, they namechecked it: "And that there was some classic Steely Dan for {WIMR} in {my town}."
