Jarman to The Max??

Hell, I don't know. It's what I was told by a "reasonably" reliable sorce. It's logical and I could see where it would be an attractive offer to Chris. Your thoughts, please.

ALL TALENT LEAVES CLEAR CHANNEL. That's all you need to know. All reasonably talented people find an outlet for their talent, don't they? If their talent is stifled, they rebel. It's been true throughout all human history. Think about it.
Look at the list of highly talented/respected people that have left CC voluntarily or otherwise. Rick Dees comes to mind. CC loves to fire people who demand a living wage and replace them with manufactured stars who used to be nobodies and will work for peanuts in a voicetracking sweatshop. Rush Limbaugh may be the only exception, and you can bet his day is coming.

OK, Spencer, your turn.

I think it'd be neat to see Wal*Mart merge with CC. Then if I was the 100th nationwide caller to the 1-800 contest line manned by $1 an hour Sri Lankan teenagers I could pick up my Backstreet Boy's tickets, buy their new CD and get my gas, bacon, milk, shotgun shells, night crawlers and school supplies all at the same convenient location. If we could get Fox, AOL, and GM to join the coalition, heck......think of possibilities. One stop baby. That's what I'm talkin' about!<P ID="signature">______________

Wouldn't he be subject to the non-compete situation D&Z faced? And where would they put THE JAR? Drop Alice Cooper or Drumm & Burk? I can't see him doing the overnight thing

Personally, I don't see it. He's on the heritage classic rocker. He does a great show. He worked many hard and long years to get a full-time shift there, so why rock the boat and jump to a new station that may or may not prove to be competition for Rock 103?

I just have my doubts on this one. Just my $.02, which won't even buy Ramen Noodles anymore.

I can't think of one reason why I'd jump to 98 if I were Jarman. 98 is of yet unproven. He's with a major comapny and they seem to be letting him do his thing without too many restrictions. He's come a long way, but this is his first show. I'd stay put and get better for another year or so, then look around.
