Re: The Breeze

"When you go from a power-gold song into a newer, wailing, sad snowflake hipster tune, it's a major tune-out factor." Hate to tell you, if you are male, and/or over the age of 45, they dont care. The station. The people making the decisions. The people they are trying to reach. Dont Care. They are ...

On radio or TV? My guesses someone on WWJ or Fox2?
You would be wrong.
I heard the 'Bide-All' and 'Mon-Roe' fiascos on (redacted) sad and funny indeed.

In 96.3's case, it's a mostly voicetracked station in the wrong format.

They only track nights.
They're also sounding more like a hot ac again. The Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox 20, Alanis type '90's songs seem to be back. Reaction to losings some P2's to The Breeze maybe?

Never realized their office was in Royal Oak. The only station I have vivid memories being in that city was WEXL.
They were in the building next to Royal Oak music theater. Really cool facility actually.

WDVD has played Kesha and Nelly for over a year.
Ashlee Simpson? Are you sure? What song she sucks.

Unpopular opinion: Basement dweller ratings aside, outside of that awful morning show, I think Nash sounds better than it has in a while.

Re: URBAN ONE is selling Urban AC WDMK

Interesting indeed. I too thought a Beasley/Cumulus deal made sense.
I could see Entercom grabbing DRQ or DVD at some point.
What they'd flip DRQ to if they get it I have no idea.

I actually tuned in 97.1 yesterday. I got burned out on sports radio a couple of years ago and haven't listened, but never got the Valenti hate. He has an act he's great at: Pushes your button and makes you call. I made it all of 5 minutes through some rant about can the Lions win a super bowl befor...

Not to mention, the average Schmuck may not be music nerds or radio nerds like us. Agree or not, and I hate the comparison, but when you go to McDonald's, you want a burger, fries and a coke. If McDonald's started serving lasagna instead of burgers, people would stop coming.
