First off, i am not a program director just someone who loves music. I have noticed as i listen to the internet radio stations they truly have started to blend certain styles of music together. I personally have become frustrated with the Christian Music stations locally... WCQR and WMIT and WHCB... All three play music and personally i find myself stopping on 106.9 WMIT the most. My concern is how boring christian music is today. I have read on other forums on the site and other internet sites how the christian radio stations are losing touch with their audience.

So here is an idea I would like to throw out there. Christian music always wants to pull in people they are supposedly not "saved" but the music seems to be very preachy. Don't get me wrong. There is a place for that but here is a possible hour play list. If i turn on the station at noon and hear Natasha Beingfield's Pocket Full of Sunshine followed by the new song by One Republic. Then drop the new Song by Firelight. Next play a upbeat song by the group Group 1 Crew "Can't Go On". Then play a song by Life house followed by Skillet. Next play a song by Casting Crowns. Then change it up with Jordin Sparks' Tatoo. After that play a song by Toby Mac. Round out the twelve songs with Jonas Brothers, Switchfoot, and Reliant K.

I just wonder if mixing some of the mainstream songs with the christian artists might make people more apt to listen in. Tell me what you all think... I will post this in another rom too...
 
When Todzilla was at Star 102.1, he would occasionally throw a Christian song on the "Star Wars" song competition. Nearly every time, not only would the song win, but it would get retired as a 5-time champ. Despite that, the songs were never played again after the 5 night run.
 
We are doing just this in my little boro.
The area loves it because within 15 to 20 minutes there is literally something for eveyone.
The office crowds really like the variety since no one can agree on one style of music!
