The recent "No Music Day" that was observed(is that the right word to use there?) by many U.K.
music stations was done to accent what this world would be like if there was no such thing as music. If you've not heard about this, a quick read can be found at this link:

My two cents worth is that this is a great topic for discussion(most likely on 'talk' stations) but would never take place here in the U.S. as some listeners would probably actually file lawsuits against stations and owners for breech of something.
The concept is most interesting. Music is an integral part of life. Even when you don't know it's there, it's there. From the speakers above you as you shop to Monty Python suggesting you "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life."
A whole day without music on American radio? No. An hour? Maybe.
Thoughts?
