Quality Rock 93.3

[charles123]

The rumors became a reality at 5am this morning The Bone flips to "Quality Rock 93.3 FM" a format like their sister station WNNX in Atlanta.

Thank God, they brought back the AAA format.

Well Alexis is still there.

 

[sox fan matt]

I wonder how heavy this AAA will be..like an WXRT in Chicago, KGSR in Austin or Cities 97 in Minneapolis

I've missed The Zone & Merge... If only they could bring back Jeff K and Sub-Merge Sunday nights! Thank God that awful Bone is gone!!! Glad they kept Alexis... can't really see Kaden fitting in here though. And The Regular Guys were actually entertaining. I wish them luck! No, really... 8)

Jeff or can anyone else confirm that their live internet streaming is down? Im using linux and have everything installed and its a no go

 

[jeffdfw]

It was up but they just put up their new web page and it is back to the sample again. I'd try again in a few minutes... http://www.fm933qualityrock.com/

Just another reason for me to listen to Sirius/XM from now on.

As if that hasn't been said by a poster on this site after a format flip in the last five/six years.

 

[jeffdfw]

In the past few minutes...

Sneaker Pimps
Elvis Costello
Killers
Jesus Jones

Way cool! A spot on the FM dial in D/FW that doesn't suck! 8) 8) 8)

We've also got an interview up with Cumulus' Operations Manager Jeff Catlin, on our blog Unfair Park:

The Bone had "needed a face lift for some time," he syas. "It gets us out of KZPS's direct lane, for one thing, and lets us play things we don't think are being played in the market."

Come on, Jeff. A "Rock" station? With the exception of Gnarls, this is a list of wuss Top 40 tunes from the '90's.


Jesus Jones - Right Here, Right Now

Natalie Imbruglia - Torn

Gnarls Barkley - Crazy

10,000 Maniacs - Because The Night

Fastball - The Way

Counting Crows - Come Around

I can see playing songs that are not getting airplay elsewhere, but get the format right.

Any thoughts yet on Quality Rock's new syndicated morning show the Regular Guys out of Atlanta?

How about "Pump It Up" by Elvis Costello?? That song doesn't get airplay around here.

Aren't the Regular Guys fairly blue and VERY male oriented???? Doesn't seem to fit

Last I heard, TRG are in a more tame but conservative political direction. Which makes me wonder how that angle is going to play with the AAA format when AAA listeners are often more moderate to progressive voters.
