Not been a lot of notice for Clyde rocks and Fraser Thomson the ex xfm DJ is doing Drive on Clyde rocks was covering Drive on West fm on Monday and Im sure he was meant to be doing it all week
Oh joy top 10 at 10 day so it's neither 10 nor at 10. What a branding mess. Just like whoever was covering drive on city 2 the other day thinking he was on city talk.
With Juice FM gone i really want to like city but they have wasted a golden opportunity to be Liverpools number 1 station and it just aounds like a dogs dinner with poor jocks with bad accents and zero brand identity.

Hang on its always 10 songs in a hour on top 10@10 day. It would be better if it had a more neutral name without a time in the name.
That was Adam Catterall who said City Talk he is usually on that station.
Surprised stv viewer didn't pickup that Clyde 1 have opted out of the usual BC1 evening show this evening for "Sessions" with Duncan Leven - one of the programs from Clyde Rocks. A welcome change from the regular playlist…

Looks like it was a one off for the bank holiday weekend. Also on the topic of Clyde 1 next week they have an extra Superscoreboard on Sunday from 12-4 along with the Saturday show from 2-6.
The people of Dundee must be a little confused as all the DJ's are on air but are in different slots.
John Milne was on Network breakfast but is usual Tay Drive host, Webster who is Tay Breakfast DJ is on 10-2 across Scotland while Lynne Hoggan who is usually on 10-2 is doing the Tay home run which is the local slot from 2-6.

I listen to Just Great Songs most days, Nick still does his old Magic 'golden years' at 10am most weekdays. Ray is still showing his knowledge about music and things in general in the evenings. Other ex Magic presenters are also on during the day.
Good luck to Nick Wright who seems to have put all this together (I may be wrong but it's just the feeling I get), it's a pity Magic was scrapped for the farce that is now in its place on AM/DAB in northern England.

Bank Holidays.
On some threads everyone moans it is same old TV.
Radio station tries to offer a simple change, on a regular feature and we moan about the name.
Was (un)lucky to be working Monday. Our bland FM at 2pm was playing the usual songs over and over. Then at 6pm it was Disco feel good stuff (which I cannot stand) thank goodness the department manager football nut had a DAB to drown out the same old songs FM.
Done right I assume a 10@10 sounds like a countdown type show, meaning unless you skip songs outside station comfort zone your going to play different songs to the norm. The name may stick but it's the music that matters.

The top 10@10 is 10 songs from one year with clues given e.g tv shows and movies released in that year and listeners are encouraged to phone in and text in there guesses.
Some of the songs are played normally as top 10@10 anthems and some of them are different
I have had Clyde 1 on a lot the last few days and they are running a big competition called Bowie's Whats that noise but it seems that it is going around the stations as Forth and Radio City have all ran the competition over the last few weeks or so.
Will Bauer continue to put this out on all there city 1 stations
I moan simply because it sounds like a complete bag of crap, Sadly Bauer and EMAP before them have completely destroyed a once great Radio City, alas until recently I wasn't all that bothered as I simply stopped listening and moved to Real, cue Global destroying that by turning it into the crap that is Heart. Mo matter I simply retuned to Juice FM only for the suits at Global to strike again.
So it's effectively City or City 2 I am left with now and cannot beleive how much of a missed opportunity Bauer have made by not capitalising on Juices demise, Citys figures are certain to continue to drop with it's bland lack of identity. Ironically City 2 has a much greater ID with it's sung jingles referencing the station name and Rossie at breakfast is a much greater personality than the dross on City. I don't think it will be long before City 2 eclipses City in RAJAR.
All the talk of Bauer being interested in Free Radio, I feel sorry for the people in the midlands, from what I hear of Free when driving through, it's output is way ahead of anything that goes out on the City 1 network.

Fascinating.

Thats not nice Radiogram she is a good singer and has been very successful.
Ewen asked her for an exclusive but she doesnt have anything ready

Thank god you are here to keep us all right.
Radio is wallpaper. As long as the 'choonz' are being banged out, they won't care.
The people of Dundee have bigger problems to worry about. They live in Dundee for a start.
