Live 100.5 Goes Silent
Birmingham's WWMM (Live 100.5) has gone off the air, in favor of simulcasted talk radio. On one hand, I understand the move, since the station was consistently pulling ratings under 2.0, which almost always is a precusor to a format change. On the other hand, they are pulling the plug in favor of a SIMULCAST of right wing talk radio, their excuse being they wanted a younger audience for their programs. Ick. I think a minor tweak of format might have worked better -- a little harder, a little more rootsy, more 80's, something. Instead, the geniuses in charge ignored a grass roots campaign to keep the format and burned a lot of good will for a dubious programming decision whose only virtue is saving a ton of money. I wish nothing but MASSIVE FAIL for this format change.
WRNR Top 104 of 2009
There are a handful of stations out there that, if they were duplicated throughout the country would cause sattelite radio to immediately go bankrupt. WRNR is one of them. It is programmed by Bob Waugh, who was previously involved in WLIR/WDRE back in the day, and he goes above and beyond the usual John Mayer/Norah Jones fare. Any radio station that displays the Flaming Lips and Wilco as featured artists is worth listening to.

Wanted to review Boise's Virus....
But I got nothing. Got bored of listening to it. The main differnce between it and KQXR is that the Seether/Godsmack/Mudvanye is broken up by the occasional Silversun Pickups or Kings of Leon song. So I guess that's the review. Hope it succeeds and I hope it gets better.
