Someone's going to have to bite the bullet on these guys at some point. The Doghouse is building its army and knows how to handle the FCC and CBS censorship rules without compromising their show. These guys are hungry. O and A are fat cat millionaires. I dont even think they could put on a decent PM show at this point. The clock is ticking.....

What crack are you smoking? O&A's ratings are lower because of the crap they are putting out. JV/Elvis should go back to the Castro where they belong.

Current morning show has no problems in that category, thanks.

You know "starscream", if you're so against the idea why are you posting on this thread? It's very obvios you're a fan of O&A and there's nothing wrong with that. If you're going to advocate the advantages of a failing morning show, why not post it on your very own O&A thread? This is a JV and Elvis thread...and while we can appreciate constuctive criticism, it's very obvious where your loyalty lies. If you don't like Jv and Elvis why do you feel the need to make it so known on this thread?
Here's an idea, head over to Wackbag.com and make your feeling known there. Like I said, there's no problem with constructive criticism but you're attitude toward the show is getting old. You must be lisetening to the show if you have so much to say. And if you're not listening, then drop it, because you have nothing meaningful to say.

I'd just like to show that a typical JV and Elvis fan tops a thread by responding to a post from six months ago.
Bravo, sir. Bravo.
Especially since I had been keeping a relatively low profile in this thread for the last few months.
And yes, I am an O&A fan. Never hid that. But you want the constructive criticism? Here goes. There is no "loyalty" when it comes to radio. You like what you like and you listen to what you like. I think it is possible to be both a Stern and O&A fan. I think it's possible to be an O&A and Doghouse fan.
I think O&A are better suited to be an afternoon show. But with the current set up the way it is, you can't have O&A on in the afternoons.
I have listened to JV and Elvis when O&A were in best of, and I'm not the type of person who will listen to whatever O&A tells me sucks. I am a fan of programs that O&A have derided on the air multiple times. So I listened with an open mind and have never been motivated to listen longer than 10-15 minutes at a clip. The show just annoys me.
Here's another question for you. O&A and Ron and Fez managed to pack the Hard Rock Cafe to the gills. JV and Elvis had an appearance at VIP. Did they pack the place? What happened? I'm curious.
Don't be overly shocked if your boys are moved to a nighttime slot now that Penn's gone.
Yes The Dog House packed VIP and it was a really great night. You are wrong about O & A and Ron And Fez, because only Anthony showed up for the Ron and Fez gig at Hard Rock.
Maybe we should get into the comedy tour that O & A had last year when they only sold half the tickets to all shows. And the fact that it was the Dog House that came up with the idea....Oh, that's right the Dog House had a MAJOR Comedy tour in SF that SOLD OUT EVERY NIGHT.
You are right, it's everyones view about a show.....So if you like O & A, that's great, if you like the Dog House that's great.....
Put one thing you nailed for sure.....O & A are an afternoon show for sure.. They should be afternoon drive at WFNY. You said it not me.
Starscream said:Tony,
Stop harping on the comedy tour idea. If you want to compare apples to apples, O&A's stops on the virus at PNC and Tweeter did extremely well. If it was such a failure for O&A, why has the number of stops for the tour nearly doubled in size?
Secondly, my reference to "O&A packing the hard rock to the gills" was in reference to the Halloween show, not the past Ron and Fez event. It was a Ron and Fez event and was sold out, and Anthony showing up was an added attraction. O&A didn't even promote the event and it sold out.
Are you kidding........ PNC sold 13,000 and 17,500 cap...... When the Dog House did it's tour in SF they sold out 35K...Oh really Tweeter.... 11,000 it has a cap of 25,000....Nice try....
You said the O & A and Ron and Fez event.....it was the O & A event at the Hard Rock and it was a different event at the Hard Rock for Ron and Fez.
You said it before....if you like O & A that's cool....so why post on the thread....post something on the Anybody see O and A's "ratings"? thread. Here is the link http://www.radio-info.com/smf/index.php/topic,60028.0.html. Maybe you can explain the ratings to the O & A fans......
