In saying that, the playlist restrictions Nova have in place means that it's going to change into another 2FM/Today FM clone before long. Ireland is crying out for something different from the norm. We have the pop happy stations, the local stations are there with pop, country and phone-in shyte. We have classical and Gaelic stations. But to get rock we have to listen to foreign stations again. It's going back to the way things were when all the pirates were on the go. Even John Clarke mentions it in a promo - "......Beatles, Stones, Sam Cooke.....and all that was being played in Ireland was Johnny Cash" (That was paraphrasing btw!!!) Brannigan is obviously trying to go national and fair play for that. But we don't need another "same shyte, different day" broadcaster, we need one that will play stuff that isn't played on the nationals. One that promotes Irish music (they do have that kinda covered already). One that caters to people that doesn't want to listen to the same crap that's on on every other channel. Why the hell can't Brannigan grow something between his legs and let the station play what the listeners want to hear? ARRGH!!!!!! Sorry Mikey for hijacking your post. Getting seriously F-offed at Nova lately. [ ........and breathe..........

Or was it a case of human error and they meant to play 'Back in Black'? From Nova's questionable music policy as of late, I'm guessing it's the former?
