97.7 The Rocket is no more

[mitzi]

Tell that to Keith Richards.

Exactly. This was the best music made, everyone stood out, was original. I do admit even the songs I loved I was very sick of hearing on 97.7. I don't think the new format is bad. It's all older stuff yea, but it's a nice mix of songs I haven't heard in years.

 

[DoWhat]

Now this is a classic.
Enjoy.

One of my favorite Jrs song.

Nothing wrong with country, just don't need 5 of 6 radio stations being country.

Bad lip syncing..

Starting to think the demise of The Rocket was because their music was too 'modern' for SOMD.

 

[Budster46]

Please bring back the Rocket or at least bring back classic rock. I dont care what you call the station. 977 The Bay Sucks.

 

[Budster46]

There sure seems to be a lot of negative comments about 977 The Bay, why is that crap still on the radio. Go find Ripley n bring back classic rock or just bring back classic rock. At least I like country too n can listen to WKIK until someone screws up n changes that format too.

I'm enjoying the hell out of the new 97.7. Last night was the first time I've heard Pat Benaar on the radio in ages.

A lot of it I don't really like. It's a good mix I think. But now and again something will be played I haven't heard in ages and it sounds pretty good.

Unfortunately they are doing the same thing that most stations do play the same 100 tunes ad naseum...

At least it's better than the same 20 songs The Rocket played.

 

[spr1975wshs]

I've been listening to the Big 100 instead.

I've pretty much given up on any radio. Broadcast options are pretty thin down here, and even Pandora starts playing the same songs over and over after a while.

Gotta switch channels sometimes.
