Radio Nova 100FM On Air Now

ghosttown

Does this mean the Boogie Bus will be back to bring us to Club Nova up in Rathfarnham ? Had my debs there in '83 !!!

Btr

Given those involved imaging is really poor. Heard them plugging launch party finite . Isn't that a private gig. Obviously my invite lost - thanks guys !

Cheap Thrills!

lol ah I just remember the the jingle! I took what I could get cassette tape wise!

Well at least they've managed to pick one of the few U2 tracks worth a damn! When Love Comes to Town should be the next one then nothing ever again

Did they say there'll be a '7 after 7' -they're gonna play a full album with no ad's by an Australian band....

It'll be AC/DC I'd say....wonder what album....what if there are more than 7 tracks on the album !!!?

There's a 7 at 7 (7 tracks in a row uninterrupted) but the album is at 11pm - the "Classic Album at 11". http://nova.ie/show/nova-nights/

any thoughts from Alinton?

_feedback_

Was a bit disappointed with the "launch". Only caught the first few minutes, but from what I can gather, there wasn't much else! After all the hype and all. . .

ThisRegard

Ah c'mon, Jump, continuing with the cheesiness !

mike65

Can Heat of the Moment and Baker Street be far away?

dr.bollocko

Leyla after Jump and Stairway. Hehehe. Well lets hope they're just getting em outta the way early. But most likely they won't. I listen to Planet Rock a fair bit and they're often guilty of blasting out the old safe ones all the time. Though that said they also have Rick Wakeman doing a good show.

Cheap Thrills!

The test transmission was waaaaay better but I'd say the first day has to be a slight bit 'dumbed down' ....well at least that's what I'm hoping! :cool:

Bard

Really dunno what ye were expecting from a classic rock station on launch day other than playing it safe with some (cheesy) Dad rock that everybody knows (and, presumably, loves)!

Does exactly what it says on the tin, if you ask me...

Cheap Thrills!

Ah yeh, don't get me wrong I'm not complaining!!!! Far from it!!! :pac:

I didn't hear Sabbath! Pink Floyd was played after I posted!

It's just that the test transmission was better. I'm giving it a chance though don't worry. It's still way better than anything on the airwaves though.

It is irritating though to hear some of my very pet hates played though like Coldplay, the Killers and all that MOR 'current' stuff. I would put both bands mentioned there as pop rather than rock. If they need to play modern they just played White Stripes, that's fine. The Classic stuff is not my problem at all.

B0X

The Killers and the Kaiser Chiefs? BAH HUMBUG!

dolittle

still cant listen on line

Cheap Thrills!

7 after 7 = The Who

Edit: not 7 Who Ah well......... Joan Jett!!! :pac:

mike65

I have been listening on and off all afternoon, not as good as the test but still a dam sight better than the other drivel on most stations.

Just wondering is that the same Enda Murphy on now who used to do bits and peices on 2fm, filling in for presenters when they were away etc.

Yeh, I suppose it was never gonna be like the test.

Yes, it's still a damn sight better than the rest of the offerings available.

But why play the shytest, most commercial song by the Cure live (Friday I'm in love) when they played one of the best on the test, 'A Forest' ....

People are sick of the lowest common denominator and that's what I thought this station would steer clear of? I mean people are sick of that muck on normal radio. I thought this station would be the antithesis of the spoonfed fare on other stations. I mean Phantom is supposed to be 'alternative' but it's almost more unlistenable than the rest.

We don't want another Phantom, I'm sickening myself moaning because I had such high hopes for these guys.

I'm gonna stick with it though. It's just a pity they dont give the listeners a bit more credit though. There's a market for the much more fearless approach they had during the test transmission.
