I Don't Listen To Lite Rock Because My Ears Are Not On A Diet!

S

Scooter Lesley

Guest
Hot AC, Red Hot AC, Standard AC, Soft AC, Alternative(to what?)AC, Really Soft & Fluffy AC,
AC/DC...AC with Country-crossovers: Adult Contempoary/Duh Contem'pry. How can anyone listen to this crap for more than 2-songs? Background music for a dentist office to help soooooooth the pain.
It's more painful to listen to this crap than to have a four-alarm, pus fountain root cannal. Does anyone in a management wheely chair ever ask themselves: "Gee, I wonder why my AC never gains in the ratings?". It's not that you have a stable of Sap-Happy Ass air talent, it's the Awww-ful playlist alone doing all the damage. Some pencilneck Consutlant prissing down the hall, with both his el-skin brief case, and hand truck in tow...rolling a two box(tree kill) printed results of an Auditorium Music test held in Bute, Montanna. "Oh, this data will spearhead your next book!".
How many times have you hear that horse manure? If it's not some worthless(label serving) Country-crossover, it's an older Pop song that's too pooped to pop! No, I'm not the only one that feels this way, but as I've said before, I re-charge my ipod each night...outta self defense!
 
These songs are DEAD! These songs are killing any chance that MAGIC has to float, in the midst of all this radio mud. It is not the Announcer's falt. What Boob is making these bad dee-cisions?
-Red, Red Wine
-We Are Family
-Margaritaville
-Le Freak
-Your Smiling Face
-Upside Down
Wake Up MAGIC,....it doesn't matter what the Consultant is telling you...
THESES SONGS ARE DEAD!
 
FWIW, I get to play hot currents each weeknight and interact with a growing base. That, no matter the dial position, is gold for a jock.

Oh, and, Burl Ives is warmin' up the pipes as we speak.
 
I haven't listened to "lite rock" in ages. Same boring, burned out tracks over and over. 97.7 and 102.5 are much better alternatives for that type of music.

Hey, wait a minute, those are all good songs. My station even plays a couple of them.
 
Yes, but Scooter is tired of them. Don't you realize, nothing else matters?

People who post here are a thousand times more engaged with local radio than the average listener. So, all this posturing about this song and that song amounts to exactly nothing.

I know the feeling.

Scooter should try WMUU. After a few hours of that he'd never complain about anything else.
 
Well,...well,...well,...Marv, skip the whip, but hand me the "Cat of Nine Shares". I do believe that I have some Floggin' to do! Oh,...and it just pains me to do so!
Think Tank members,...again MarkSC has chimed-in with (again!)his usual 3-to-4 sentences of pointless drivel. Expected, Predictable, and as always,...Drastically Underwhelming!
However,...we had prematurely awarded smarts to "vchimpanzee", inwhich-id we will now strip away, due to his recent posted Boobisms. As for the handle of "vchimpanzee", Think Tank members insert your lower primate/monkey jokes whereever you deem nessessary. Apparently, Cheeta here is allegedly in radio, yet does not understand what Dead/Burnt/Roasted/Toasted/Wort-tout records are, and the damage that they can cause. Entering a mersey plea, we see him as snuggled 'neth the winged tutleage of a Consultant or possibly a Consultant,...(do we dare say it?)masquerading as a PD. To disclose this sure-rade he must ask the token question. As he pilots his desk, as him about the station's TSL. If he is truely a Closet Consultant, then there will be a pause,...then you might notice beads of sweat on his forehead. Now, note, the sweat is typical...this always occurs when they are attempting..."thought". You might not even get a response, but whatever is said, write it down, in detail, date it, and file it away, as you will need it later. As you continue in this Biz, you will learn, but make notes. You may not understand now, but you will later, and let's all, collectively, hope that you did learn something today.

I don't work in radio. I just come here to rant.

Like most liberals, I want things to be a certain way but have to admit what I want won't work financially.

But one station I like has no listeners yet they just keep going.
 
(The machine at) MAGIC ran a Lite Rock jingle, and then slammed into the rather high calorie "Separate Ways" by Journey.
Well, Scooter...He/She/It didn't know. Yep, for some reason, as they both spastically struggle to be hip, MY & MAGIC are into these Chick-rock bands. Fist pumpin' anthems, as they try to sing along, getting their fannys wet to Bon Jovi & Aerosmith(or is it just those leather seats?). Even MR. BIG is getting dosed with airplay for "Just To Be With You"....as the Consultant read, It Tested Well! Please don't test anything else, it's makin' us all sick, as it is! They just don't get it...
...the logic of a Thick, Correct playlist. Each book, they pull peanut ratings, and continue to pay the Boob in charge.
