Arrow 93.1 dead?

Ghoulish Delight · 03-18-2005, 02:05 PM

I was just reading at MP that it seems Arrow has gone off the air and is currently replced by a station that's calling itself "Jack" and playing random assortment of music.

I for one won't miss Arrow. I had all but stopped listening to it. Over the past few years, their definition of both the word "classic" and the word "rock" had become SERIOUSLY skewed. Nevermind that somehow they simultaneously expanded the genres they covered while seemingly shortening their play list. So not only were they playing crappier and crappier music, they were playing it more often!

Awwww you mean Ashlee Simpson isn't "classic rock"? ??

I don't know whether to vomit or cry...

FM Radio?

How quaint.

Sincerely,

I listened to Jack radio a bit today out of curiosity.

"Pour some sugar on me"
"I just wanna fly"
"Legs"

Yeah, that was enough for me.

They may play "whatever they want" but what they want to play does not interest me in the slightest.

Well, you all may find some comfort in knowing that Arrow 93 is in Heaven now ... and, uh, ... Yeh.

(Yawn.)

So how is everybody doing to-night?

Good?

Another Friday night out on the town, perhaps?

Good times?

Huh?

Well, that sounds fantastic!

(Yawn.)

Whelp, I am getting tired.

Hmmm?

You know, sleepy-like. Restful. It's time to hit the hay and then, I don't know, I guess I'll go to bed. Sorry to hear about Arrow 93. I've got about thirty of their bumper stickers plastered on my car, i don't know what I am going to do now. I feel dumb. I just put them all on yesterday, too. That's bad timing! I need to find a new favorite station that has some cool bumper stickers and quick.

Anyway, here I am rattling on and I need to get to bed! My sweet precious bed.

I had them programmed for whenever we traveled south of the Grapevine. It was nice because we have a station here that is also at 93.1, so I never had to change the radio, it would just change somewhere before Piramid Lake.

I went & checked it out. Can't believe it's gone & can't believe the new station is SO bad. They played Journey then an REO Speedwagon song. Sad.

Hmmm...We have a station here that has taken to calling itself 'Bob' within the last few days, and it's playing the same sort of 'classic' bilge. I suspect that it's all part of the same pre-recorded, corporate crap that is starting to take over the airwaves. I think we now have only two FM stations* that are live broadcasts, and one of them is only live part of the time. (For their morning show- the rest of the day is pre-recorded).

(*These are rock formatted shows- I wouldn't know about country or easy listening, as I try to deny their existence anyway.)

Which is why I'm getting satellite radio.
