Faux alternative music.
I know people on the Toledo board used to complain about 100.7 The Zone. That station would be a godsend compared to the garbage 98.7 plays.

Re: AMP 98.7 flipping!
Hell, Fault 106.7, tiny playlist, Woody, and all, would be a godsend compared to this garbage. Very little alternative rock, except for 90s and (somehow) the new Cage the Elephant song. They play wayyyyy too many rappers and wannabe pop-punk singers to be even close to tolerable.
It’s a shame 107.1 doesn’t come in better. I like 8/10 songs that they play.

Re: AMP 98.7 flipping!
Not sure I'd go that far; Fault 106.7 was a rotten station in its own right. I will admit it wasn't quite as bad as 98.7.

Re: AMP 98.7 flipping!
The few times I've listened to 98.7, I at least didn't hear Imagine Dragons' "Thunder," which on Fault 106.7 seemed to be in a 4x/hour rotation. However, could not avoid Portugal.The Man's "Feel It Still," another 106.7 staple. SXM's alt offerings are far more varied.

Re: AMP 98.7 flipping!
At least today's Zone went back to more harder rock, instead of a few years where they mixed non-guitar pop with hard rock. The old playlist of the Zone could be a trainwreck at times.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Mon Mar 01, 2021 5:44 amFaux alternative music.

Re: AMP 98.7 flipping!
Caught these fuckers yapping for 5 minutes about Joe Biden, which, no matter how you feel, isn't the rule to not discuss politics unless you're a political show? This station is such a fucking frustrating train wreck!!!
I guess I had a different idea of what "alternative" was when I wanted it on 98.7...guess that's what I get for thinking

It’s time that Entercom blows up that station. A simulcast of WWJ 950 is long overdue.

The Church of whatever is the worst radio I've heard since Rover's Gloryhole nonsense.
Re: AMP 98.7 flipping!
Very true, I was able to catch 98.7 the other day and I think they made a big mistake, killing off The Breeze. This seems poised to fail as it did on 106.7.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Mon Mar 01, 2021 5:44 amFaux alternative music.

Who is the guy on 98.7 during the afternoon gabfest who sounds like an old geezer, trying to be "hip"? He has a grating, gravelly voice, and claims to "represent" Livonia, whatever the hell that means?
Unrelated, but along more authentic Alternative lines, whatever happened to Afentra? I know she lost her gig in KC. What is she doing now?

She would have been an excellent fit for alternative and she's from here so she gets the market.

The whole show is a joke. I have heard better water cooler talk when actually working.

They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

As soon as she was unceremoniously fired, her former station's ratings fell by about 50%.Doing a podcast last I heard.

Yet another in a long list of HORRIBLE programming moves by Entercom.
