Living in Central Jersey now, I get to hear both NYC and Philly radio. WMMR was all over these two shows and it was really great tuning in on my drives to and from work lately.
However, the jock that was on at around 7:00/7:30 the past two nights really blew it. He said Monday night's show was really good and he gave it a B-minus. Hmmmm...OK, maybe he's "judging harshly" I thought.
THEN the truth comes out. The manager of the Wachovia Complex actually got on air and jokingly berated him for his grade, but really stood up for the band and questioned how he could find fault with them playing all the hits plus others like "Romeo Delight" and "Atomic Punk". Mind you, this is a suit, albeit a very cool one from the sounds of it.
The jock then goes on and says how he missed hearing songs like...I won't even mention the titles, but they were all Hagar-era shit. I immediately called the station and asked, "Who IS that sissy on the air right now? I'm just getting home from work now and after the day I had, I have to listen to this?" Whoever answered apologized and said they agreed with me.
Just having a little fun there.
However, and I don't know if this has been mentioned, but the guy who was praising VH said he was at soundcheck and they played "Outta Love Again" and "Hear About it Later"! Truth?
