New radio station in town

[MissMillie]

WMKK or "Mike".

Their slogan is: We play everything.

Well, not EVERYTHING. They do tend to stay in the realm of pop/rock/R&B/disco. But you know, they do play a lot of stuff that you'd never hear anywhere else. Just last week I heard Rocky Burnette's "Tired of Towing the Line" which is a song I even forgot existed.

It's kind of fun to hear the Village People's "Macho Man" followed by Twisted Sister's "We're Not Going to Take It", followed by Big Country's "In a Big Country"

ANd Larry FM in Ontario.... they've been springing up across Canada for a few years... killing all the markets too.

3. Around here, we have a new one called "Jack". WJJK.

Same type of format. Are they by chance owned by Susquehanna Broadcasting?

[Rick Myers]

4. Hey, we just got "Jack" in Minneapolis

Same slugline, same format.

5. We have "Bob" in Austin

It was cool at first, but now the REALLY bad songs from the 70s and 80s are all they seem to play.

6. Baltimore's got JACK, too.

[supernova]

7. We've got The River

better known as Clear Channel.

At least there are not 13 year olds masquerading as DJs.

[MissMillie]

11. Our "The River" is Independent Radio

or so says their slogan. They're pretty good.
