B98.5 becoming an Everything Jack Show on weekends.

It seems like all formats are being thrown out on the weekends on B98.5.

Tonight I heard on B98.5 Usher's Yeah, followed by Cher's Half Breed and a few minutes later Janis Joplin's Me and Bobby Mcgee.

You have to be one hip 55 year old to enjoy the sound block.

Really? What was the "theme" of this weekend? "Songs that very few people even like, don't test well and are polarizing"?
 
It was any song that hit #1 on the chart from the late 60's until 2007.
They seemed to jump around in years and format quite radically.

Unless you enjoy a block of The Captain and Tennille, Milli Vanilli and Guns and Roses.
 
Can't say I like all the songs/groups mentioned in this thread so far, but I have no problem with radically different songs being played back to back. I usually set my Mp3 player on random for the whole list of songs. I could go from the Ramones to a Motown song to Enya to Fugazi to New Order, etc. I must be weird :p

Anyway, the only time I hard a Jack station I actually liked it.

OK--so if I had been aware there was a THEME... honestly, those tunes would NOT have bothered me. At all.
