Re: Pat Caputo laid off from Oakland press

You only need to listen to Caputo for one shift to recognize his verbal crutches. During any four hour shift he is likely to say all of the following multiple times:
-This that and the other
-All these other things
-okay?
-This and that

Re: Bogey out at 97.1

He was all over the place. He could bring it when he wanted to with solid opinions and solid broadcasting skills but then he'd ruin it with dumb jokes, sexual inuendos or laughing when nothing funny was said or implied. I actually think he was capable of a lot more if he couldve reigned in those sho...

Re: 106.7 WLLZ: Detroit's Wheels (Classic Rock) is here

I try not to go TOO deep; I get that it's a familiarity game. So I'm not trying to pull random album tracks out of my ass, you know? I'm trying to stick to tunes most people would know and remember. It just bugs me because I'm so happy to have WLLZ back, but it could be so much more. Yes, that is i...

Re: 106.7 WLLZ: Detroit's Wheels (Classic Rock) is here

Such a limited play list for trying to have such a wide range of music. Every band is boiled down to about 3 or 4 songs for big names, and 1 or 2 songs for everyone else. Even the deep cuts seem to repeat a lot. WLLZ is flat. Its a joke. They're trying to keep everyone happy and thats just not gonn...

Re: 106.7 WLLZ: Detroit's Wheels (Classic Rock) is here

It blows. Too many overplayed safe songs. Tries to be all things to everybody. Sorry, but I dont want to hear The Doors followed by the one Soundgarden song they play. Its a mess. Granted, I took them off my preset a few weeks ago but I imagine its still exactly like that. They could own this city w...

Checked out channel four news at noon today just for the heck of it. Yeah, its bad news central. Play up the bad news and barely mention the very real positives that are happening.

Re: Why Did Channel 4 Stop Reporting Coronavirus Exposure Locations????

Media won't be reporting specific exposure locations anymore. The county health departments have stopped doing it, and that was the source of the info. There is community spread everywhere now, i.e. it's being transmitted person-to-person basically everywhere. It's not containable anymore. They're ...

Re: February's Nielsen Audio survey - demo rankings for A25-54, A18-34 and A18-49

80s and 90s rock should not be mixed together in equal proportion. Those eras sound too different. 106.7 tries to do that. They get killed by 101.1, 94.7, and 97.1 in the ratings. No, not in any consistent way. They insist on having half of their playlist be overplayed safe songs from the 70's. The...

Re: February's Nielsen Audio survey - demo rankings for A25-54, A18-34 and A18-49

You mean if a station plays music people want to hear the ratings will be better? I wonder what would happen if a station focused on great rock songs from the 80's and 90's? Man, I bet that would be a winner. Too bad no station around here does that.

Re: The WLLZ Fix List.

Open letter to the Pinheads running WLLZ: Dear Pinheads, Did you know Ratt and Tesla have sold over 18 and 14 million records respectively and have more than 1 good song each? Did you know Van Halen still made good music into the early 90's? And that their catalog of solid recordings didnt end with...

Re: Marc Fellhauer is a Dope

I waffle with Marc, but overall I think he is very important to the show. He remembers a ton of stuff from the D and M days and I think he keeps up well on pop culture. I think the show would be less with just Drew. The one I'm not so sure about is Trudi. To me she is more of a DJ or newsreader typ...

Re: FOX2 Mornings hit with the Lue Flu

I’ve noticed Josh Landon not being the best of speakers too. I guess that’s putting it mildly. I wanted to like Marielle Lue but I dont. I’m so sick of her “I’m like Beyoncé! I’m a queen be too!” bullshit. It’s obnoxious and her shit attitude ooze through the tv. I’m sick of Ryan Ermani screaming a...
