10 AM on 96.9, and...

lol this is awesome i guess Entercom gave them the ok!!
 
I love how many of you are getting your panties in a bunch over this. 24.4% of the population was offended? You really think a 1/4 of the population was listening to 96.9 for a day? They haven't even settled on a format and DOZENS of you are already dismissing the station as stale and boring. Very ignorant.

Enjoy it! I love epic stunts like this, shaking it up. Relax, dudes. This is radio, we're having fun.

I agree this is the most exciting week in Boston radio in many years!!
 
Yeah I don't know if Entercom had Mike and we play everything trademarked, but...
didn't the owners of 93.3 get asked NOT to call it Star so they called it Coast?

Funky Cold Medina
into
Still the One
and no I didn't rec the flip.
When do they do blues 96.9? Louis Jordan, Lucky Peterson, Dr John, Johnny Winter,
BB King, Roomful of Blues....

Said so well. Cadillac Jack is showing off that he can program any format and do a good job. Making Boston radio interesting.
 
By the way, Evergreen did something similar in '96 when 103.5 New York was flipping from Country to KTU: they simulcast a different sister station for a day for a week, leading up to the official format launch. Kiss 108 even got a day in the Big Apple.
 
Pretty interesting stunt. Making me actually listen to radio for once. Even the web page changes with each stunt. Active rock next?? I can dream right?
 
Also, I think the most telling thing from all these stunts is the Greater Media is going after Clear Channel, and wants that to be blatantly obvious. First, an actual urban unlike 94.5. Second, a dance station. Now, variety hits, which CC dropped for Evolution. Plus all the hires of old CC employees. The actual station GM launches will likely do the same: go after the same demos as CC's stations. This is hilarious.
