Format adjustment at 97.3 Joe FM?

Post by MWmetalhead » Sun Jan 03, 2021 8:29 am

Music seems to be heavily 80's based now. So far - sounds decent.

Haven't heard anything more recent than the early 90's in my listening so far.

A few months ago Joe FM played......
Maroon 5, Michael Jackson and Walk this way by Aerosmith every day. Sometimes twice a day.

The advantage of WMJO is its ability to penetrate buildings in Bay City.

Was in a business yesterday that had it on and heard 3 straight decent 80’s rock songs in a row

Tuned in tonight in the car for a longer listen. New slogan is “Your at work 80’s and more station”. Heard a Hootie and the Blowfish song, along with “Rock and Roll all nite” by Kiss, but everything else was 80’s. Not bad sounding but I turned them off a couple of times when a couple of wussy songs (Missing you by John Waite and Forever Young by Rod Stewart) came on

I heard hip-hop music on Joe FM today for the first time. Don't we already have enough stations playing that already? I really miss the format the WHNN had when the called themselves Classic 96 and played mostly 60's, 70,s, and 80's music.

I don't know. I'm not a fan of hip hop so I changed the station.

Just wondering if it was Walk this way by Run DMC / Aerosmith or Ice Ice Baby by Vanilla Ice
