Van Halen Coincidences

Okay, this is getting really weird now..

On our Tivos, we get a bunch of music only stations, you know, no commercials, no DJ's, no video, just music. So anyway, whenever I turn on one of my favorite music channels (a "power rock" channel), a Van Halen (or related solo artist) song is either ending, currently playing, or starting.

It's like they know when I tune in and that i'm a huge Van Halen fan.

I mean once in a while a coincidence happens, sure, but this happens every single day.

But that's not even the strangest one. If I happen to look at the clock in the 3 O'clock hour, most of the time, it's 3:16.

I know it's a ridiculous topic, but it just gets silly after a while..

Anyone else experience stuff like this all the time?

my girlfriend used to notice that when we were in the car... whenever i would change the station- a VH song would be just starting...

i seem to have lost my magic touch though now because it hasn't happened lately...

It's not just you. I haven't heard VH on the radio in a while either. I typically don't listen to the radio but the past couple of weeks the CD player in my car stoped working and I haven't heard 1 VH song in my car since.

There are three rock stations where I live. One day while listening to one station, a VH song came on. After it was over, I flipped it to the second station, and another VH song was going. I thought, How cool is that? Then, once that song was over.. I flipped it to the third station just to see if VH was playing. This was probably a one time fluke, but by golly, another VH song was on. I almost shit my pants.

When I first got my license back in '98, I was amazed because I heard VH on the radio at least once a day, usually more than once. But dem days are long gone, kinda like Van Halen...

I have a George Thoroughgood coincidence like your VH coincidence. Back around 1987, every time me and my buddy would get in his tricked-out BMW 320i, "Bad to the Bone" would come on - every time! It was weird!
