THE CHANGE AT THE CASA

V

VERITAS DE VOCE

Guest
OK, fellow radioheads... this forum is for whatever happens at the end of the workday in DA CASA. What happens?

> Do they go top-40 Latino?
> Does CBS decide to buy another station and create computer-animated radio?
> Did KOAI make a come back?
> Has 990 AM got the stones (and plenty of plugola for the FCC) to change the CASA into the CAFE?
> Will the immigrants in Farmers Branch do more revolting, buy the frequency and have a job hotline 24/7?

Stay tuned for these details, and many more, after 5 p.m.

I'll go with the last one - but you need to put ILLEGAL in front of immigrants.

They announced a station sponsored concert for next month.
 
I don't believe, from experience, that a concert will do any good. Does anyone else agree? What is everyone's take on this subject? What do you think CASA should do? ???

Rebel against the Spanish ownership and flip to 80s Pop, or a Memories-type format, or maybe do a well-programmed Classic Rock or Edge-style format, or do Smooth Jazz. Lots of non-Spanish formats with potential out there.

Resista la tentación! Cambie al inglés! Mueva a gente blanca en su casa! Jazz y memorias lisos!
 
They should just change it to Cricket/1067. I know this building where crickets gather every night. They could simply roll tape and play that on the air.
This would be a hell of a lot more entertaining than what they're running right now.
 
Well remember KDL put on a huge concert its last night on the air and flipped to Casa the next day. I thought that was weird.

lol to the Cricket Radio, I have to agree.

Someone already posted an allaccess mention that it already shifted some to include more Spanish-language top 40 hits and lessen some of the amount of reggaeton and hip hop.

I believe someone pointed out a few months ago that KZZA was the highest billing station in its cluster and makes money. I would guess nothing will change. The rest of the FM stations in the cluster got new formats a couple of months ago when LBI closed on them from Entravision. LBI put on a new ranchero format on KZMP 1540 a couple of weeks ago. I would think nothing will change in the near term in the LBI cluster since most of them have just changed formats recently and they seem to be OK with KZZA's performance.
 
"CRICKET1067" excellent . new wave nature sounds. It's innovative that's for sure. Gordon is thinking:) A colleague suggested they call it the "Rio Grande swim club"
It deffinitely needs to be put of its misery. Sign it off so we can all enjoy KOOI 106.5 out of Tyler.
 
I find it funny that you all thought the idea was stupid, been done before, blah blah blah. You still felt the need to talk about it and listen. Most concerts are strictly done as a listener appreciation thing not a ratings thing. Casa is making good money and according to the Fall book that just came out the #1 station for Hispanics/english dominant, person's 18-34. Not bad for a "baby" radio station. We're just getting started. We'll compete with no signal, no budget, and being squeezed in every direction by competing stations all going for the "new" Hispanic audience. It is what it is, and Casa is here to stay......

YOU TELL 'EM DOMINO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Domino,
I meant no implication that CASA would not make it. I just said there are many formats out there that could be considered...meaning if it didn't. That's why I said we'll see what happens. There are many new stations that feel the heat when they first start out. Now, I am a retired broadcaster and I certainly know the business. I understand why concerts are held and so forth. I wish you luck with your new station and only time will tell with how it all pans out. Congratulations on being in the ratings already! That is quite a 'feat! :D

PS The Cricket idea is still a cute idea...
 
Casa in "da house" haters, and I am so glad. For all you haters, Bishop "Domino" Juan has spoken. Chuuuch on da move!..... And if you don't know what that mean, you don't need to know.
 
Many formats have exclaimed ' We are gonna stay" Remember "Wild","Hot"."Merge", Zone""Young Country"?....'nuff said
 
Who cares. I'm gonna ride as long as it's here.
