Anyone notice any changes?

There was a time in a galaxy far far away when if a new PD came in you heard changes pretty quickly. Maybe not major changes but slight music ones,liners,etc. Anyone notice anything at Coast or B101 since Rick Everett has taken over. Granted the role of the PD has changed & the competitive edge in this market has dulled but new people used to at least like to put their stamp on things for the sake of doing it. Not that I think anyone is closely monitoring either station,but any takers or comments?
 
Yea, They have been playing The Eurythmics "Sweet dreams are made of this".B101 current playlist12:00 noonBilly JoelElton JohnRod StewartEagles1:00 pmRod StewartElton JohnEaglesBilly Joel"Every breath you take" by the Police2;00Billy JoelEaglesRod StewartOK we'll give you a break from Elton John and play Eddie Money instead.Oh and we have 2.00 minutes to fill so we'll play The Supremes too.3:00Eaglesetc.......etc.....B101 has become somewhat BORING 101.I hope some changes are on the way.
 
Kenny... we seem to go over this everytime B101 comes up. But what do you expect to hear on B101?And I don't think it's quite as tight as you perceive it to be.I listened at noon today and heard "Always Something There to Remind Me", "Mustang Sally", "Bohemian Rhapsody", "Lovin' Touchin' Squeezin'". Seems like there's some variety there to me.You're going to have to face the fact that B101 isn't the same as it was when you board-oped for Cruisin' Bruce ten years ago. Get over it, or listen to something else.
 
I've noticed HJY does the "hey here's what you'll hear on the news in a 1/2 hr" and that ridiculous traffic sponsor sounder "ba ba ba ba brought to you by......commercial".Why does Al always try to talk over everyone? Is he from NY or something?

Kenny I was thinking more in terms of recently heard changes as opposed to changes that started long ago.
 
Al isn't the only one who talks over everybody. Charles does the same thing, sometimes worse than Al does. I am able to listen to Charles alot more than Paul & Al (since I'm not awake during morning drive usually) and Charles constantly interrups traffic reports...and it takes Big Jim forever to get through a traffic report that should only take 60 seconds.
