Removing Variety from a Station

I have about 1000-artists & songs in my 80's station. I want to get rid of some, but I can't see ALL of them. It ends with "YOU ARE" by Lionel Richie. How do I view past that? The song & artists are still there.

All I want is to edit a station I accidentally added wrong "add variety" to. I am on Android. Why can't "edit station" be available in the menu for the station? How do I edit the station? I tried on my laptop. Can't find it there either! It may be available somewhere somehow, but not where it should be: "Add variety"/ "Remove variety". In general the issue around being able to delete stuff easily has been going on since forever. Why can't there be an add/remove option for everything I want to do? I find it hard to delete a playlist too because there is no "delete playlist" where it should be in the menu for that playlist.

Sorry, I am so frustrated right now. My otherwise great station is "polluted" with a mistake I made and I just can't undo that mistake. It may be available somewhere but adding something should ALWAYS have a remove something in the same place. And everything should be easy to remove without having to a go to Help every d*** time!  

Amazon Music is so tempting right now even if I know it's not able to offer the great station creation Pandora offer. 

I also found it hard to find where to post to the community and I my have posted this twice.

@cdysthe You should be able to remove any additional seeds you added as variety to your station.

To do that from a mobile device:

  1. From My Collection, visit your station list.
  2. Tap on the name of the station you'd like to edit.
    • Since you're a Pandora Premium subscriber, this will take you directly to the station's "backstage page."
  3. From the station's backstage page, tap on the Edit icon (the small pencil to the left of the play icon) to edit your station, and scroll down to Station Created From.
  4. Remove this "bad seed" by tapping the small (X) beside that item.

If you run into any issues, please let me know the name of the station, along with the artist/song you want to remove from variety.

Thanks! Finally found it. It's very convoluted. Why can't it just be an add/remove/delete option whenever you add something? Removing playlists is even harder. You have to... unsubscribe click a - somewhere. I do not even remember. It's like you guys do not want us to undo anything

I work with UI designers all the time and the Pandora one has two major problems

Delete / undo / remove

Sync between mobile and desktop is flaky

Love Pandora though but it has to be intuitive and easy to navigate especially when driving.
