I appreciate that you are airing ads for the upcoming hip hop concert at the forum. I’ve griped in the past when hip hop shows that I want to see and buy tickets for get canceled because they don’t sell enough tickets due to poor promotion. If you’re going to promote someone’s concert though, don’t deny my request to play their new hit single during the request hour. Matter of fact, you should play the song without any asking you if you’re going to promote the guy’s concert. The problem isn’t you, I guess I would love for Halifax to have an actual hip hop/urban crossover station. These “new” stations came on the airwaves a couple years ago and all they do is play the same shit the other stations play all day. It’s really annoying and I go so far as to pay for satellite radio rather than listen the same regurgitated bubblegum crap on our airwaves. If you’re going to promote hip hop shows, and take the money from the promoter for the ad slot, play hip hop, especially when your audience requests it. And don’t get me started on these people who call in to request a song that they already play 100 times a day. —Not a Top 40 Fan

Bitcher – do not post here. It is a den of cruel perverts.
The site is run purely to provide them the opportunity to be perverted, cruel sadists.
That is a racist remark and libelist statement simply because PK is a white girl!
My station is playing far too much ABBA lately. Talk about perverted, cruel sadists
The only radio station i get clearly in my room is a “bouncey” one and OMFG. I must’ve been a real shit in a past life to have to endure this torture.
They play exactly the SAME FOUR SONGS OVER AND OVER AND OVER. Only station I can get streaming at work and I shit you not: they played this lame ass enrique song at like 1:30 and THE SAME ONE AGAIN AT 2:15.
WHAT the shit?
They play: that too school for cool pink song, that taio cruze song, katy perry’s latest piece of junk and sometimes they’ll throw a little biggie in there. BUT! If they play a biggie song — they’ll play THE SAME BIGGIE SONG 2 hours later. FUCK.
Seriously their playlist contains a grand total of 4 maybe 5 songs TOPS.
PK- if you can stream from work, you could try Jango? I use it at work and it’s nice because you can make a new station for whatever mood you’re in.
I like Grooveshark for streaming at work – build your own station.
Or if you’re too lazy for that, Iceberg Radio is pretty good too.
OH I LOVE YOU GUYS.
I’m baking both of you guys a batch of cupcakes!!!
oh joy, another shot at a bunch of idiots, screaming and yelling shit, that no one, but a deaf retarded leper can understand. give it the fuck up, for the suckster, the number one act in the world. thank ya, thank ya verymuch, and now, i have left the building.
lol there are alternatives PK, I almost want to remove the radio antenna from my car because I think the car would look cooler without it and I NEVER listen to the radio and would love an excuse not to. Only reason i’m keeping it on there is in case of an emergency where I would need local radio like traffic, weather n stuff. Down with z103/c100/the bounce, might as well have one station and leave the rest of the airwaves open for some real music.
+1 on the extreme redundancy of playlists, it’s just fucking unbearable (and why I gave up on commercial radio entirely). Both major “rock” radio stations are like this and share the same shitty playlist that has almost nothing recorded post 1989. A cubicle near mine has a radio tuned to a certain FM station with a name that begins with H and I swear they played Journey’s “Don’t stop believing” 3 times in the span of 5 hours. I strongly believe no one deserves to be subjected to Kim Mitchell’s “Patio Lanterns” as much as once a week (which seems to be the accepted standard between H and Q).
Sometimes I fantasize about spray painting an additional “S” on the ads the “bouncey” radio station has on the side of the metro transit buses to finally make their “#1 Hit Radio Station” statement accurate.
Ohhhh, Grooveshark. My friends used that and I liked it better, but when I tried it on my computer I got a virus almost right away. Do you find it reliable/ no virus problems?
OP, request that screeching banshee … what’s her name….you know, that female one, with the small tits.
none here…
you were infected to begin with….
and I SWEAR I hear that fucking ‘how do I get you alone” god damn song EVERY time the radio is on…. STOP PLAYING IT…. IT’S TIRED, OVERPLAYED, AND SUCKED TO BEGIN WITH.
That song is a mockery to all that Heart was and is.
I mean, sure, 80s rock, but those bitches could belt out a tune. That fucking bitch who sings that song… she needs a kick in the box.
I’m not much for Lady Gaga’s music, but her clothing is so INVENTIVE and FABULOUS!!!
She makes me wish my car was an EGG!!
MissKitty!
I LOVELOVELOVE cupcakes!!!
May I please have some too???

That dog is ADORABLE!!!
LMAO – I wrote a love about that song Z…..that was when I heard it twice. Now that I hear it twice an hour my opinion has changed. Also I love Kim Mitchell…I can’t help myself 🙂
And I agree fully Miss PK…the second I hear the words “to school for cool” I immediately change the station. I used to like Pink until I heard that song.
Now I switch back from the bounce to Q to 92 Lite. I’m all over the place I know.
i remember that post mamab. i don’t listen to local radio except sometimes the cbc…how you feeling? http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_d44ES0N62WI/TCJE…
I still have hope someone will come up with a Gregorian chant station. Otherwise the radio knobs stay off.
I love that pic! I came to visit and I’m seriously never going to figure it out Miss Pain – Unless you and the Bears shop is the GY. I bought a new car on Kempt and had an hour to kill waiting for it to be ready.
I’m feeling good – 30 lbs in – 6 weeks to go – he’s sideways so I’m feeling every little movement and in a bit of pain – but no reason to complain.
Really excited for a 4 day weekend (and 2-4 day work weeks).
I like CBC but it’s hard for me not to call in 🙂 (and probably sound as silly as most of the callers do)
sorry sweetie, only a few people know. if you have a safe email i can contact you, we can be all clandestine^^http://ronthecat.webs.com/funny-pictures-c…
Last time I made up a fake email Z found me in 3 seconds because I’m very blond. I’ll see you at the next summit. 🙂
you’re taking to a laggard mamab http://strumpette.com/uploads/august06/off…
ROFL “it’s the promoter’s fault”. It has NOTHING to do with them being fuckin shit groups or shit copy-cats, shite that was all designed on computer, and then running a voice through that machine… that comment made my day. If they are on a “hit” radio station, how come they can’t fill Beazley Field let alone a music venue? Could it be that it isn’t music???
OB, are the lyrics for the song you requestd rated “family” or “restricted” ?
Satellite radio is te way to go, CD audio quality & a lot less nauz.

haha, you remembered her gregorian chant request^^interesting avatar sir hugo. hope you like my song choice, obviously not directed at you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQcE2dq3YD0
Thanks for that, Hugo – man, you got me grooving to Kyrie Eleison after many moons – think I’ll do a search for my ‘Mass in F Minor’ album – masterfully done by the Electric Prunes back in the 60s. Might even make Hub-Unit pull out the leopard skin banana hammock tonight.
