107.9 IS an awful radio station. They repeat the same damn play list on an hourly basis...and an hour might be generous.
But yeah, I'm not much of a fan for any radio station these days. I get tired of hearing the same songs, and the same shitty car commericals.

I'm glad someone else noticed that. I don't listen to Fort Wayne stations of course, but stations around here do it too.

You're right --- they're not SINGING, so it must not be music, it's just rhythmic speaking.

So let's see, what all isn't music because it doesn't have any singing in it? All non-vocal classical music, including most stuff by Beethoven and Mozart. And all that African drum music -- we can just throw that stuff right out. Percussion ensembles must not be music either. There, is that better?
LOL

My statement was strictly a biased opinion. Is it music technically? Hell if I know? I don't like it. It sounds horrible. It takes no talent and is the main genre that, no matter what, can never sound good live. Have you ever heard a rapper live and it sound good? No. Why? Because they suck. It's 75% digital optimization.

Haha...but seriously, who cares? Everyone has their own opinion :) That's mine ^_^

yes atmosphere being backed by a jazz band was awful live :roll:

infact it was the worst-best show i've ever seen

or oso
or heiruspecs
or aesop rock
or brother ali
or the roots

all of which i've seen 3-4 times live with various groups/setups backing them up and have yet to be disappointed. just because the few shit mainstream people you listened to doesn't mean an entire genre sucks. for instance i can't stand punk music but you don't see me running around telling the world that the entire genre as a whole has 0 talent...which would be untrue considering what little i've listened to such as afi has progressed and evolved quite a lot as a band.

rap. seriously. i thought we were talking about rap.

how'd we sidetrack here?

again, biased opinion. can't you see that i'm arguing purposefully , and for the sole reason, because it provokes people? i find it amusing.

Hell, I listen to Eminem!

seriously, relax...move out of your parents house....w/e.

so how about that local sports team? ^_^

Sports are gay. They require zero talent, and always suck live.

Yeah, me too. What bugs me even more than the fact that they do it is that NOBODY NOTICES OR SAYS ANYTHING. Every person I've told that to is like "What? No they don't...". And you'd think at least their main competition (96.3) would eat em up for it. But they don't. Probably because they're too idiotic to notice (which I don't see how it's possible).
