Prank or serious?

So, hopefully serious.

dcrtv.org doesn't know whether it's a prank or actual format flip.
DC101 Gets Hard - 9/19 - Ever since the end of Elliot Segal's show this morning, Clear Channel's DC101 has swung into a heavy metal, hard rockish mode. A stunt? A new midday feature? A format flip? The station's website at dc101.com now features an on-air playlist featuring Warrant, Jackyl, Poison, Whitesnake, Scorpions, Dokken, and Tesla. Hmmm. DC101 normally leans in an alternative rock direction.....
-
God I hope so. Their previous format of ten minutes of ads, Metallica, Three Days Grace, Fall Out Boy, ten minutes of ads, Guns N Roses, Nickleback, Trapt, rinse, repeat was terrible.
-
Wow...what does it say that people are actually excited about hair metal again? I remember when all of that stuff was played to death and we were waiting for the day that people stopped caring about Poison or Warrant. Now if they start playing Judas Priest, I might have to tune in...but I can't even remember the last time I listened to the radio.
-
Most of what DC101 was playing was all of the dumb of hair metal but none of the fun.
This is awesome.
-
hee hee.
dokken.
i wonder how george lynch aged....to the google-mobile!
-
Apparently the fall ratings period (the radio version of sweeps) starts tomorrow. Not sure if this is a segue to a new format or a publicity stunt to get rubberneck listeners for sweeps.
-
and the answer is pretty well.

Gotta be a stunt. No commercial station could survive on such a narrowly dated and styled format.
Here we are, talking about it. Ah, the power of stunts....
-
Actually, that Night Ranger song does kick some serious ass, as does "Foolin'" by Def Leppard.

Please please please let this be permanent.

Death to false metal.

This is all Prom Metal. Where's the Motorhead? The Master of Puppets-era Metallica? Hell, even a little Priest would make me happy.
And finally, and above all else, where's the fucking Maiden?
-
It's standard, by the book hair metal. Pretty much what you'd expect from a Clear Channel station playing 80's rock.
-
ps the globe > this shit

I heard "Still Loving You" by the Scorpions

HAHA! classic!
:)
-
i was wondering what was happening, i thought maybe someone died b/c i didnt even hear a dj
-
A couple of weeks ago I was surprised to hear House of Pain's "Jump Around." But just to assure listeners they were still boring, they quickly followed it with the Chili Peppers "Give it Away Now."
-
I thought I was going crazy on Wed night around 6:30 when I heard
Ozzy and Lita "Close My Eyes"
followed up by Warrent's "Where the Down Boys Go"
Came home about 2 hours later and had:
Motley Crue - "Girls Girls Girls" into
Scorpions - "Rock You Like A Hurricane"
