Re: B-93 Birthday Bash... Stick a fork in it?

I found a reddit post on this topic, where someone mentioned attendance the last two years was lackluster and that a Birthday Bash this year was "doubtful."

Re: Classic Rock WLAV ties its all time record low AQH share in latest Nielsens

Fly By Night by Rush is another song LAV plays all the time that I wish would just disappear from the FM airwaves.

There are some Rush songs that I enjoy, but I hate "Fly By Night" with a passion.

I definitely prefer Sean's college football work to his NHL work, but I've begun to warm up to his NHL work a bit.

Re: Detroit Tigers 2024

I will agree that there's a better chance this club ultimately wins 77 or 78 games than, say, 85 games.

It is an updated version of classic rock that includes a large classic alternative component.

Re: Classic Rock WLAV ties its all time record low AQH share in latest Nielsens

Here is one of the more interesting playlists among stations identifying as classic rock - 100.7 The Bay in Baltimore:

WZBA is an outlier within the format and is clearly drawing upon the popularity of 99.1 WHFS from the late 80s and 90s.

This is a .500 ball club as constructed. Those expecting this squad to be a playoff contender this year have excessively lofty expectations.

Re: Classic Rock WLAV ties its all time record low AQH share in latest Nielsens

The stations to which they've ceded share the most play 60s & 70s oldies (101.3) and heavily 80s classic hits (98.7). I think LAV's issue isn't median song age inasmuch as loss of beloved air talent and song selection taking on a mellower tone. There needs to be more AC/DC, Ozzy, Van Halen and hair ...

Re: B-93 Birthday Bash... Stick a fork in it?

I'd say it's a combination of 2, 4 and 5 and possibly 3. (I am unsure of last year's attendance). B93 is running on its brand name and little else at this point. To their credit, they do seem to be doing a better job keeping the audience interested than another heritage station in the market, WLAV. ...

Re: Classic Rock WLAV ties its all time record low AQH share in latest Nielsens

The GR cluster as a whole is profitable, I believe. They won't exit GR unless (a) they receive an attractive price and (b) they can unload the Muskegon stations concurrently. A somewhat more realistic scenario would be sale of a single "dog" station to a not-for-profit broadcaster. 107.3 WTNR fits t...
