Re: Sounds Familiar
It reminds me somewhat of Arrow from back in the mid-90s, then there are shades of Eagle and even of the Point from Dayton. Was the Fox really failing that badly? IMO, the Fox was as good as it's ever been the past six to nine months in that it was closer to the good classic rock stations (i.e. WTUE and 98.5 from Cleveland) and not the watered down versions we've so often been fed in Columbus.
Also gonna miss Bob & Tom and its extra hour from 10-11.
