2fm Imaging Sounding Great... Shame About The Music.

    Have been listening to 2fm over the last couple of weeks and really liking their new imaging sound. Really gives the station a lift. But what I was wondering was if they can manage to turn around the imaging side of things, could there be any hope in relation to the music side of things or will it be trying to save a ship that has already sunk?

    2FM changing their station imaging and sod all else smacks of 'fur coat no knickers syndrome'! Take Friday for example, Larry Gogan's second last link, when he was unable to pronounce Shapeshifters!!?? It was embarrassing not purely because he hadn't a clue but because he was bigging up the fact that he was handing over to Rick O Shea at Electric Picnic. So you have a jock who is 5 years off his 80th birthday forward selling a music festival, EP, the demographic of which would still be older than 2fm's true target audience.

    Dan Healy for me has had ample time to set out his stall. In the brief time he has headed up the national disgrace that is 2fm all he has done is tweak the imaging, Big deal , dropped the 80's music, masterful inspiration, and in a stroke of breath taking genius he has put his faith in Lottie Ryan. WTF!!?

    I've said repeatedly 2fm needs to be 'The Youth Music Station' of choice, not an atm for want away Tubs, not a talking shop in the guise of the dreadful Colm hayes show and it most definitely should not be playing music from before the year 2000, never mind 1990.

    But in their infinite ignorance Montrose boffins hired a salesman and not a programmer, expect 2fm to further implode at our expense , expect Larry to blow out all 80 of his birthday candles live on air and expect 2fm to still have no knickers in 5 years time.
