EDIT 8-10-09: I updated the formatting a bit. I’ll be setting up an RSS feed for this, and streamlining the process.
So much good music is on tv all the time, and I feel like I’m missing it. So I’m still trying to work out how to do this, but the goal is to publish a listing of music-related tv programming for the upcoming week. I’m still working out the kinks. The channel numbers are for my local provider, so unless you have Verizon FIOS in Maryland you can ignore that. I’ve tried to exclude shows that feature music videos, focusing instead on live performances and spotlights on artists.
