I think Project is dead.

Different source says it is IN FACT dead.

Cumulus friend says that mandatory staff meeting tomorrow.

If this is true, I'm betting this is 99x moving to an actual signal and Rock 100.5's staff getting the axe.

Or 100.5's staff moving to 99x, and where does Reg. Guy's go? Fan?

"Cry Me a River", by Justin Timberlake is on now.

BTW, The bull has a new logo........is a move to 105.7 possible with Melissa Forest gone? Is Power a decoy for oldies/classic hits?

Last 8 songs, from first to last:

8. Linkin Park - Burn It Down
7. Offspring - Come Out And Play
6. Everclear - Santa Monica
5. Jimi Hendrix Experience - All Along The Watchtower
4. P.o.d. - Lost In Forever
3. Beastie Boys - Fight For Your Right
2. Pantera - Walk
1. Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird




Wasn't listening: did they do anything special, like a brief retrospective? Was there any mention of the change on air?

This ;D ;D ;D ;D

96.1 has been Atlanta’s rock destination since 1974. The Project Family is so proud to have carved out our own chapter in the rich legacy of WKLS. The radio dial will sound much different after today. We can never thank you enough for all your support and passion for Project 9-6-1 over the past 6 years and for 96rock the years before us. We consider ourselves among the luckiest each and every day we were allowed to enter this studio and create a radio station that made us proud. Thank you for inviting The Project into your cars, jobs and homes. Thank you for Living Loud and Playing Hard, please don’t stop. Most of all, thank you for being Part of the Project!

I don't see CC doing Oldies/Classic Hits on a 100kw signal in Atlanta. IMO, one of the 105's is more likely.

The Bull would lose any chance at competitiveness with Kicks if on 105.7.

Just remembered "POWER 99....." (Thanks Lance Venta)

"Ready Or Not" here I come, you can't hide... launching at 8 maybe? Or they just have a bad version.

ccinsider, you know more than we do. Why don't you tell us when it's launching?

105.7/96.7 is doing the new CHR while the new 96.1 is doing the old CHR music

Because by initials are C.C. not ClearChannel...Just a happy coincidence. Though, I know many insiders all over Atlanta. 8:05, if i could bet.

Rock1005 is in a Braves game. 99x on the other side tonight?

Another heritage rock station killed to support the bewildering addiction to CHuRban music. Crazy. Disgusting.

I highly doubt, this station will be a "CHurban" It will be a CHR/Top40.
