Sunday nights just wouldn't be the same without Today Fm's weekly offering of real music!!!
I think we should have more rock shows on the radio!
Does anyone miss Marty Miller?

I think the guy who hosts it is totally useless. Surely there must be someone better. Someone who actually knows what they're talking about!!!

Bring back John Kenny on the 2FM Metal Show

eric_the_head · 31-01-2003 9:01am

He's even worse, and he has admitted that himself !!

cournioni · 31-01-2003 9:48am

Well we need someone thats for sure... It's the only way to get kids into proper metal.

Someone like Dee Snider!

I loved Dad Rock! It was my sunday highlight.

Robbo · 31-01-2003 2:31pm

Doesn't Dee Snider host the largest syndicated rock radio show in the States now?

I got really embrassed lately when my brother mentioned Twisted Sister as one of his favorite bands when he was younger. TS were one of the worst metal bands ever. Always thought dee was bit of a tosser. He has his teeth filed to look like fangs. But i do believe he makes a better DJ then musician.

Dee Snider used to be on the radio station I listened to before I went to college... he's not anymore though, and I wonder why, cuz his program was very good and sometimes very funny.

At the time I was listening he was only on that radio station and one other... so I don't think he was the biggest in America by any stretch.

Oeneus · 31-01-2003 11:03pm

Oi! Twisted Sister are cool! And I think he used to host HeadBangers Ball before that Ricky Rackman (spelling?) guy aswell.

kingconor · 01-02-2003 9:36pm

Twisted sister are cool, one of the better hair metal bands!! How hard would it be for us to get some sort of petition to a radio station to play more rock?

superconor · 01-02-2003 10:08pm

yes i think marty miller should come back. i dont mind the guy but marty was better methinks.

it is a great show!

Perhaps we could get marty reinstated? Does anyone know what marty's doing at the moment?

Toatl Rock on digital can be cool. Channel 848 or 850 or somethin' like that.

its like mojo by numbers. he knows diddly sqwat and tries to bluff his was by on classiscs and standards. its a well worn path. so yeah i see how he can get away with calling it dad rock if your idea of a rockin da is one who has nothing but compilations in his record collection and who hums brit pop stuff as a token nod to contempory stuff. it's a crying shame that he's not utilising the resources, info or musical landscape open to him. bet he likes jeremy clarkson too.

Oeneus · 06-02-2003 8:03pm

I never heard him play AC/DC.

mike65 · 06-02-2003 11:09pm

Save us from mainstream radios token "Rock" shows, both those mentioned are ****e not because of the music choices so much as the hosts complete ignorance of both the music and how to play it, I could'nt listen as intros and epic climaxes
were constantly talked over by prats!

Mike.

eric_the_head · 07-02-2003 12:47am

Phantoms metal show on thursdays is fairly ok. At least he seems to know what he's talking about !!!

kingconor · 07-02-2003 8:45pm

Hey, snitch, at least its better than nothing!
