Actually heard on the river

Thanksgiving day the afternoon jock on the River who I think is also PD, said this after playing Rocky Mountain Way...

"I kinda like Joe Walsh but I don't know much about his solo work. But the more I hear the more I like." Later on he talked about a new Buffett live CD set and said he "didn't recognize all of the songs." Is this guy clueless, honest or both? True to the music....yeah. What a joke.
 
GOOD grits and gravy, that guy needs to shyutap!

"Joe Walsh...the more I hear it the more I like it!"

"Live Buffett CD set...you'll know most of the songs."

Make it a lot less about me/I/mine/my and the breaks get better and better.
 
*robot voice*
I have been programmed that my breaks are not about me, but the listener. The previous statment computes as...irrelevant. Must terminate break

:D I don't care if I don't even know how to pronounce the artist's name, I'm fakin like they're my favorite!
 
Tonight on the way home from Thanksgiving with the family, I heard The River play "Freebird" and I think this was one or two songs later, they played Soft Cell "Tainted Love."

I guess it would be hard to run that musical gamut all the way from Soft Cell to Joe Walsh and the new Eagles and Buffett CDs and sound knowledgeable and informed and interested in all that spread of music that's mostly played out. ;D
 
Hey Bigben, You'll sound great telling your listeners how much you love that guy Jethro Tull...and what about Leaonard Skynyrd? Don't you love him, too?? Great plan, 10 share!! ::) ::)
 
Ben was poking fun at the system he finds himself in, and you're both out of line...
 
I always chuckle when I see the "Nobody knows Fleetwood Mac like--1007 Thuh Rivvver!" and the Beatles and the other tv commercials they have.

Especially the one about the Mac, it makes me think...so what if you know everything about something, radio should be about communicating. Tell us what you know. Or at least it should be about backing up what you're claiming. If you're claiming to "know Fleetwood Mac" then the station should be more than just a jukebox playing their records by file numbers. The listeners already know how all their hits sound. Share some information sometimes. Tell us a story about when you met Fleetwood Mac. Maybe that's what they "know" about Fleetwood Mac, the file number, and it's a secretive thing, so no one else can "know" that fact as well as they do. Probably some weaselwording technical nuance to the statement that makes it 'true.' :eek:

Even the cardreader on there seems disembodied.

They should play some Bob Welch or some of the Fleetwood Mac solo stuff, even Mick Fleetwood's sometimes, just to spice it up erry now and then.
 
Come on Quad..you obviously haven't heard about their
Secret Decoder Headphones! Its the latest thing, just
like HD radio. Oh, that's a secret, too....sorry.
 
;D God, Surfdude! Whyda not go ahead and tell about the decoder rings and the whirly-bird hats too. I can't keep any secrets around here!... Mac Who? Linward Who?
NEW BIG APE!
 
Dern fellas, I had not even seen the decoder headphone thing before I got all mouthy there!
This headphone thing will revolutionize radio! I see a new future for Thuh Rivvver!
What a great idea it would be to tie it in with some kind of contest on the Neuse River, or even the New River, it's not that far away.
Lots of clues, make people answer their phones with "I'm waiting for the new Lennerd Skennerd solo joint to drop!"
That way, they could go either classic rocky, or add to the urban AC pile with Foxy when they change formats!

I hope they are HD headphones! I hear High Density is all the rage!
Double-sided and pre-formatted would also be great bonuses!
My TRS-80 keeps eating my Parsec copies! :)
