Do either CSX or Wheels even play Alice Cooper at all?
I think they at least play "School's Out".
Around Halloween you might get Welcome To My Nightmare. I think WLLZ might spin No More Mr. Nice Guy on a rare occasion.

I checked last few days of history. WLLZ plays No More Mr. Nice Guy daily.
Music is my life.

Thanks. I knew I'd heard it, but it goes to show how often I bother listening anymore.

WRIF does not play any new rock that the overlords don't tell them to. That's somewhere close to the majority of new rock out there. Does it suck? yeah. There's simply not an audience.

Makes me miss K-Rock and Buzz 106.5.

Hey I'd bet WQON Grayling has played it. Whoever programs that station does a damn good job in my opinion, just wish they had better audio quality.

I just listened to a Sammy Hagar interview from 1997 last night. And even back then, he was complaining about the segregation of rock radio because he was having trouble getting airplay of his new album. He said that there are numerous stations, one will play old Sammy Hagar but not new. Or it might play Nirvana but not Sammy Hagar. Or it plays Sammy Hagar but not Nirvana. And this was 25 years ago. Some legacy artists made some great music post 1995. And now on rock radio, you have Foo Fighters and the flavor of the week. There has to be a middle ground.
