Dear Folks, First of all , it seems like many of you have biases on what stations you like to talk about, and which ones you like to rip apart. I find, and this is just me, a station that does not shove theirselves down your throat. Call me Old Skool or whatever, but I think radio should concentarte on the music, not some dj's ego. Let me apologise also If I went on a rant,but if it's ok for Casey to tell of his opinion of another jock, why can't I express my opinions, It's a free board, correct. I did not curse, I just told like I hear it.
Sorry, yes, Mr. Casey did do the first attack, and he should have included some reason for the way he felt the way he did at the time.
Hopefully, that would have helped a bit.
Sometimes things go on behind the scenes that the listener isn't made aware of.
Perhaps the two didn't get along off air, even though on air performance may have been fine. (for both parties)
As for concentrating on the music, that's fine, but not to the "Jack" point.
Radio owners keeps saying "how can we make it tighter...tighter....tighter" to the point where they eventually say "ok fine, maybe we don't need dj's."
That's where Apple may as well own the station.
I don't want the kind of radio that runs non stop ads for ipods that remind the listener that if you don't like jockless radio that plays what it wants, there's always an Ipod.
Do you?
Sure, too much talk is bad for a music format, but not enough is just discusting. My Hydro is extra where I live.
A pc costs alot to run 24/7.
I would much rather hear the dj tell me the name of the song and who it is by instead of having to waste hydro finding out.
