93-9 Kiss FM 12-26

"Very Smart"? Clear Channel Raleigh? This the first time those two thoughts have been linked since they bought the stations. They now have three format changes since Labor Day and the whole ad community thinks they are on crack.
 
Here we go again...
I am listening to the 93.9 stream, and they've gone from that crazy "chicken dance" stunt to the KISS stunt... this is WFMX all over again...
 
Well, what a turn of events! Just a few days ago on 100.7 the river's internet stream I heard promos for Sunny's Xmas music and just last night this happens! The suns out and Kiss is in! WKSL are the new calls. The first song is Prince's "Kiss" and the second song is C&C Music Factory's "Everybody Dance Now" Both good songs to kick off the Rhythmic AC Format in the Triangle. But, you gotta feel bad for the Soft AC folks. I have to ask, is there any other AC stations in Raleigh/Durham? If not, then a WJJZ (Smooth Jazz) situation could happen. Where the fans FLOOD the boards with angry messages. I bet CC/Raleighs phones are ringin' off the hook right about not. We'll see how this does against the other stations. This is a couple of days after another AC flip happened in CC/Atlanta. The AC Station down there "94.9 Lite FM" flipped to Country. But just a couple of days later it reappeared on 96.9, formerly a Spanish station with the Viva brand. Don't be suprised if another company flips one of their stations to the AC format to cater to the listeners. That is, unless the ratings were terrible for "Sunny", then AC is outta the picture. Okay, the third song is "Lets get it Started" by the Black Eyed Peas, another great Rhythmic AC format starter.
 
Number four, Michael Jackson's "Don't stop till you get enough" And, the bumpers, promos, and Top of hour IDs sound like the woman from the Movin' bumpers, promos, and IDS. And the saying of "Makes you feel good" in the stunting started getting thinking of this changing to Movin' but the Wake up with Whoopi promo turned that idea off. Number five, Marky Mark (Mark L. Wahlberg) and the Funky Bunch's "Good Vibration"
 
First 5 Songs of 93.9 Kiss FM

1. Prince "Kiss"
2. C&C Music Factory "Everbody Dance Now"
3. Black Eyed Peas "Lets get it Started
4. Michael Jackson "Don't Stop Till You Get Enough"
5. Marky Mark & The Funky Bunch "Good Vibration"

For Your Reference...

CC owns the name..yes. BUT 99% of the other stations out there with the 'KISS' name are CHR fm's!!!

i wonder who will do the voiceovers, legal's, etc ?


Maybe Chris Rollins from CC Greensboro? Or perhaps Harry Legg. Legg and Raleigh OM Shebel are pals having worked together in San Fran at Energy. Legg was Creative Director at WKTU, then KISSFM L.A., then went back to 'KTU. He was recently cut loose due to budgets.
