dmich said:Well, I've always "trolled" a bit, just looking at what people had to say from time to time. I just decided to finally say something. Now that we finally have our signal in Vegas, I can talk a bit more openly. Without a doubt though, of course I appreciate what the listeners have to say, always have. I also appreciate what others in the industry think, including all of you.
I've always been a believer of this format and the music. And I've always believed that if this format can be a success anywhere in the US, then Las Vegas is a city already primed for this. There have even been times when I have been shocked by the response of listeners/advertisers here, and I mean that in a good way. It's quite an intriguing situation honestly. For those on this forum that have said this format can't and won't work, and that advertisers will never truly buy into it, and that we have no chance of getting national placements - I/we can now prove you wrong on all accounts. It hasn't been easy, and I can understand their points of view, but I simply do not agree and will do everything I can to prove them all wrong.
Thanks to all of you for your comments, honesty and dedication to the dance format and music. Many voices together are always stronger than just one alone.
Standing O! Believe me, here in the Jersey Shore, I was also overwhelmed with listener support and local advertisers contacting me when I operated 967party.com, and the word got out on the streets thinking this was an actual commercial dance station. You will be amazed of how Vibe will grow even bigger now that it pulsating the streets of Vegas. Keep up the good work over there, much love from Jersey! 8)
