A sunny spring-like morning in Mid-Michigan. Left: 10 minutes south of my home today 10:30am.OMG. Bob Stroud (WDRV) is playing 10cc's "Rubber Bullets". One of many good tunes this morning on Rock & Roll Roots. When Bob goes off, its a quick switch to Steve Palec (WKLH). Great radio with great coffee. Plenty of sunshine this morning. All an excellent start to the day. Save The Streams.
Hispanics and Classic Rock. Edison Media Research released a study at this year's Country Radio Seminar on the appeal of country music and radio to the Hispanic audience. The study is recommended reading. Meanwhile, researcher Steve Casey got curious and reviewed some rock radio music tests and came up with the Top Testing Songs That Lean Hispanic.
I just discovered Steve's blog in the past several days. Check out his site and blog archives. Well worth the read. Added: Fred Jacobs on Hispanics and rock this past Friday here.
Promotions. Lots of classic rock stations jumping onto the new Genesis tour as well as The Police. Think on-air ticket giveaways, bus trips or listener fly-aways. It should be a great summer for concerts - even without Van Halen.
Fred Winston. One of the greatest - with an awesome set of pipes and a one-of-a-kind on-air persona. A new interview today on Rick Kaempfer's Chicago Radio Spotlight.Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Roll tape or TiVo the induction ceremonies. Monday 8:30pm ET on VH-1 Classic.
If its spring-like today where you live, relax and enjoy.
