It's a phrase that has different meanings depending upon the inflection and/or attitude with which it's spoken. While 'what do YOU want' has often been lobbed at yours truly with a level of annoyance - [for instance, when i try to cop a feel from the Mrs.] - in this case it's an honest question about what YOU, the 96ROCKHEAD, wants.
Aside from 'More Pantera, Dude' - I'd love to know what you're looking for in a radio station. We all like to think we know - and the research companies that have cropped up over the past two decades love to charge us to tell us what the same few people each week tell them THEY want - but here it is...out in the open.....what DO you want? I'm curious... Do you give a shit about 10 in a row THIS or long blocks of THAT?
Hell, you don't even have to confine your comments to radio....You can feel free to let it all hang out and tell me what you want with regard to anything - unless you want someone to explain why Paula Abdul hasn't already been broken down and sold for parts; then, I'm afraid I can't help you.
So.....What do YOU want?....Hmmmm
Rock On....Fin

Re: What Do YOU Want.....
Please stop playing The Pretender so much!!!
Aside from that, I would love to hear a few hours or so devoted to blocks of bands as well as a DJ for the 6-? period after you leave. I've probably got a few other requests that don't come to mind right now, but when they do, I'll post 'em.
Thanks for helping produce the best rock station in Cincinnati (even better than 'EBN)!!!

Re: What Do YOU Want.....
I lost 3 of my favorite radio voices recently Tom Carnegie, Joe Nuxhall and, a particular morning DJ that has been put out to pasture. I was glad to find a new station that has potential to entertain me (I know that is everyone’s life dream to entertain me). The homophobe and the gay guy are great as well as Sister Karen (although I really don’t think she’s related or a nun). Fin you don’t suck near as bad you used to, keep it up and you could possibly be one of my top entertainers also. Maybe if you gave away midget porn and beer that might help the ratings.
Thanks again for keeping Cincinnati Rocking.
Sorry about eating your cheese burger at Hooters a few years back, I guess I owe you one.

Re: What Do YOU Want.....
More diversity in the music you play. Sure, it is good to hear different stuff like Cake, Atreyu, Stone sour and others but... I am sure they have more than one song. Play different songs by the same group. Also, throw in some older REAL HARD rock in there. I am not talking about the wuss rock like 92.5 plays but kick ass older stuff. Real classic rock became a classic because it is good. That is the only thing left that would burry the "other" station... well except throwing a hell of a fireworks bash! Let's see how bad they screw that up this year! I don't see how Queer Channel can continue to screw up and stay on the air! That would make the station MUCH better OK.. well, that and a job as a DJ... say from the 6-7PM period!

Re: What Do YOU Want.....
I totally agree with Rock Hound. I am a HUGE fan of the station as well as my friends. We were all discussing it this weekend and their are so many other great songs by the artists you already play. If I could give a suggestion... Arms of Sorrow and Fixation on the darkness by Killswitch Engage, maybe throw in some Underoath... not all the songs they play are too crazy and Atreyu's loose it... RoCk HaRd

Re: What Do YOU Want.....
The format so far is great! I love the morning show and the songs that are currently being played. My only suggestion is to play more 80's Hair Bands. You already have some vintage Motley Crue, keep it coming and add more from that genre. As always, Pantera is a good way to go and some old Metallica too. Keep up the good work and keep the rock coming!

Re: What Do YOU Want.....
I agree with Windycity about more Hair Bands...Love the Crue, but could use some Dokken, Ratt, Scorpions, Tesla, etc...Some bands for us older listeners..(I'm only 39!!) Plus, more talk about the bands, their history, latest CDs, tour plans...etc...Back in the day, radio and MTV were great places to get news about rock bands (Yes, youngsters MTV constantly played videos of Ratt, Motley Crue, Dokken, Warrant, Ozzy, etc...) More features about these bands would be great!!

Re: What Do YOU Want.....
Personally, I would rather not hear classic rock on 96ROCK. I think the whole Live Loud thing comes with new rock and I don't like having to switch radio stations whenever an older song comes on. I'm fine with the harder rocking classic bands, but please leave the Zeppelin, AC/DC, and Doors to that other station.

Re: What Do YOU Want.....
