BOB FM?

wtf? Retro 106.9 is now BOB-FM?

I guess they decided not to play Madonna every 30 minutes, I heard a Tom Petty song.

Re:BOB FM?

It's the latest format craze sweeping the country, it's like an I-pod on shuffle. Most of the stations are known as 'Jack' and has the tag line of 'we play what we want, when we want', or something along the line. There's a similar style station here in Des Moines, '106.3 The Bus' that's been on the air since April 1.

Oh, these style stations normally are 'jockless' and have limited commericals.

Re:BOB FM?

So do you call in your request, or submit via the web or something?

What if they don't have 'Come on Dad (Give me the car)?' by the Violent Femmes?

I don't know about other Jack style stations across the country, but The Bus here doesn't take requests.

Re:BOB FM?

oh... The Jack stations that I heard of had a bland list of songs, but people could sign up to be monthly members, and then submit song titles that they wanted to hear.

Soo.... Wasn't that what 106.9 was before Retro? 1069 The City? They played anything they wanted pretty much and didn't have a format persay.

When did that happen? I did not listen to Retro but I usually know when a station changes formats.

Re:BOB FM?

Well I have listened to the station off and on and I really don't care for the music played on it.
