Hot 96.9 And Magic 106.7

Just thinking out loud here, do you think that now Hot 96.9 is on the air that Magic 106.7 might be tweaked just a little bit as not to interfere with 96.9? Just thinking about demo's here. :D

I forgot the song, it was something like ??? "Wind of Change" by Scorpians?

More Early 90's...I also heard "How Do You Talk to an Angel" by the Heights (theme for the show from the same name). I don't think I've HEARD that song since 1992, heh.

I hope Magic goes lighter
Yeah yeah, that's what I'm saying. besides the stuff they play now. What Happened to stuff like "Baby Baby" "Every Heartbeat" , "I Will Remember You" by Amy Grant, "I Don't Have The Heart"-James Ingram, "Nothing's Broken But My Heart"-Celine Deon, "Do It To Me One More Time" Lionel Richie, what happened to good stuff like this? I can go on and on, I wish they would disregard the Hard Rock, they play
LOUD Rock & Roll music "Addictive To Love", Bon Jovie "Living On A Prayer" (That's not AC-Soft Rock)

Why is all rock and roll LOUD in your opinion? no offense but if you were such a good programmer you would have been hired correct?? All you do is complain and complain and make critiques. they do make ipods and such if you don't like music a station is playing. Try v103 in the ATL they play a good mix of music with your Quiet Storm that you love so much thanks.

And Candy O'Terry tells me I don't know about the AC Format. She need to take those harsh words back.

She's been harsh with me before too. Did you talk to her on the phone? I think she told me years ago that although Magic is primarily an AC station, they usually design their playlist to include songs that do well on the pop chart. All the songs mentioned above did fairly well on AC, but I don't think they did very well on the pop chart, though I could be wrong. I recall "Baby Baby" being fairly popular, but not so much the others.

Because, back in the day, they never played that hard stuff on Magic, if I want to hear that hard stuff, I would put on WZLX, or WROR.
But Magic?
They're supposed to be soft, not hard like that music.
I can see if they play ?? "Bed of Roses" by Bon Jovie, that's ok. It's better than "Living on A Prayer" Another good one they could get away with playing is the short version of "November Rain" by GNR. That's not too hard.
I'm not a Programmer, yet
I'm trying to get into Radio Program Management, and believe me, the music would be a lot better than what they play now.
They used to always play A lot of Celine Deon Music, Smokie Robinson, Luther Vandros, Bonnie Rait.
It's not for me, it's for the listenner.
The music I listen to the most 90% of my time I listen to "Mia 1430am"
The songs I mentioned above, is not for me, it's what they used to play that made their station shine.
Don't get me wrong, their stations is ok. it's just they shouldn't play those Hard music, not for their station

And judging from all your posts about music, your station would have no listeners.

I heard some differences in music on Magic 106.7 yesterday (June 8, 2013)

I'm sure you meant January. What exactly did you notice?
There's NO way that Magic flips!
They have GREAT ratings, people who want to listen to AC music in Boston know where to go, others have tried to gain a foothold
on Magic but no one's come close to them at all so why would you change?
