Sorry, but I couldn't post without my periodic swipe at all things rhythmic. Then again, I was NEVER known for my politically correct views/posts.

And some would say that place is at the bottom. Yeah, yeah...we've all heard it here before "New York isn't a rock town" blah blah blah. Q104 is eh at best and what they've done with K Rock is embarassing. I can't believe the people who run WYSP, a class rock station in Philly, are responsible for what occupies 92.3. NYC can't support even one rock station, let alone a classic rocker (Q104's numbers aren't setting the world on fire). Hence, NYC doesn't deserve one.

Two words: JAMMIN' OLDIES. Everyone hopped on that trend and it quickly went the way of the Dodo bird. Or even the leisure suit!!! See also: 70's, 80's, Modern AC. You'd sooner see a country station....not to knock country, but it seems the more ethnically diverse the format is, the more New York loves it. <P ID="signature">______________
