100.7 countdown

> the countdown is on. can the buzz be done?

My crystal ball says if 100.7 copys the Portland Entercom Wolf all of the BUZZ shows will be moved to ..... ....

HOT TALK 770 THE ALL NEW BUZZ OF SEATTLE!!!

Thus making room for IKNOWITALL's prediction that RUSH will MOVE TO 710!

Segal and Medved to get an unexpected Xmas gift, radio style.

So what is the motivation is with this move? Was the Buzz losing listenership, or didn't have the numbers?

The latest trend was pathetic. Aside from that, someone said they woke up to R&M. All I've heard is an automated countdown. Tried to stream and it's silence.

The consensus of the board seems to have it right. 100.7 goes Country, BJ goes to KISW am, but what about Leykis? How could they cut a cash cow like him?

It appears like it. Or the biggest radio hype of the year....

But I think it's strange that they would let the cat (or The Wolf) out of the bag with TV spots before the new format was even on the air-if they were actually going to change it.

Whatever the scenario, SOMEBODY at Entercom is having a LOT of fun watching people on this board tear their hair out over the impending change...

a conspiracist might ask you to recall about one of the conditions of robin's lawsuit. wasn't it something about the only path to peace was bj leaving? i put no credibility to this theory, but it is humorously coincidental, yes?

it sounds like the change will be at 12 noon (according to the voice).

this almost sounds like when KXRX changed to young country.
 
That is an interesting theory. Could her lawsuit really have been poised to flush the station down economically speaking?

That countdown was a straight up/down countdown to 2,000. This computerized countdown sounds exactly like the one they used at KNJY Spokane when they flipped from Z-Rock to 103.9 The Hawk in May of 1999 - complete with localized wisecracks...

VERY GOOD QUESTION! Leykis rules Seattle PM drive. They can't just let that disappear without a trace....

Here's the scoop

According to the memo sent to advertisers, here's a summary of the changes:

- BJ to mornings on KISW (shocker!)
- Ricker moves to middays
- The Men's Room moves to PM drive on KISW
- The Wolf signs on at noon on 100.7
- Scott Mahalick from Citadel takes over as Wolf PD

No word on the fate of Leykis, Robin and Maynard or anyone else effected by the changes on either station.
 
Re: Leykis

Country in the morning and night, Leykis could easily hold down the PM drive still.

BUZZKILL

That stupid digitized T-MINUS countdown would be the same one the JACK flips were preceded by would it not? Speculation? Stunt? Flip? I thought the BUZZ could not sink faster than with R&M on and Leykis chopped to smithereens, but now I will drop kick my radio clean thru the uprights. I could sense the stink of death on KQBZ the minute they dropped Tom Martino from weekends .... ;)
 
uhmm WTF kind of memo is that??

Do they just not think their advertisers are going to care what happens to `ahem' THE TOM LEYKIS SHOW??????

Yikes

Re: uhmm WTF kind of memo is that??

From a local music journalist:

Sounds like Entercom is once again making sure everyone knows how f-ed up they are. I am "old school," but with the web channel I listen to and Stern on satellite, radio is about obsolete, and it can just about kiss my ass.

In another 5-10 years, it would be interesting to see how viable the radio format will be, advertising wise. Satellite will be standard in every car. "The Wolf"...Entercom can't figure out that modern country is in a slump, and NW audiences are getting more sophisticated, not less...
