"Party Hits" - tweaking?

Lately they've seemed to be alternating between referring to the station as "Party 105-3" and "Party Hits Channel 105." The station has also been playing a recorded promo with Andre for various pubs and clubs across Long Island and seems to be using variations of the old station sweepers, some of which say "Party 105-3" and others which say "Party Hits." Jed Morey also isn't reading the sponsorship messages anymore either, and the station seems to be laying off some of the more sappy pop/emo ballads.

In the latest Riverhamptons book, WDRE was nowhere to be found...think this is a response?

Beat me to it, was just about to post the same thing. I have also noticed the Party 105 references. Aso in Andre's promos he says "back at Party 105" or something along those lines. I have also noticed they have been playing MUCH MORE dance over the last week than they were playing anytime since the switch to "Party Hits"<P ID="signature">______________

I think the damage is already done. Even going pure Dance, would take them several books to show up again,,,,And they have pretty much lost their Former listeners to Satelite, and internet radio, and the Hip Hoppers are hanging out over at Blaze 101.7......

there's still hope for them; they can add "Dance Floor" and then life(and ratings) will become more meaningful for them...

Its gonna take more than one song Jimmy...Although I dont see why U.S stations arent playing Dancefloor, just because its on a small label.

everyone who's heard it tells me it's a perfect ,top 40 record,and with the exception of jp and frank murray's excellent work at Robbins,it's not as if there's a wealth of radio friendly singles to choose from.We got played last night on the Hofstra "House Party" with B 9,they played it twice and the phones went wild; same with the feedback at Sirius,people luv the record.It's not a female performance record(although females LUV the record), and the delivery is more like Benny Benassi than the usual sung songs, but the man in the street luvs it,more than they do the conventional cookie cutter fare that's out there.<P ID="edit"><FONT class="small">Edited by lalumia on 12/17/05 08:12 PM.</FONT></P>
