I listen to Mid and North West radio. Mainly for the death and funeral notices.

Just to make sure you're still alive?

Have to say though - some of those Dublin stations are gas - I'd stick them on the odd time when I'm in the capital.. banging out really terrible dance music with great dedications...

"Eeeeh, dis wan goes out te Macker n'all de bouuys in de flats in Pimlico - g'wan Macker ye mad thinnng!"

THUM, THUM, THUM, THUM...

I stream this whenever possible

Long time independent radio station that I grew up with. It was bought out by a corporate entity that actually realised that it was better just to leave it alone.

Corporate radio stations suck.

i105-107, good station... always something to make you leave the road with laughter, and all new music on it too....:D

Indeed - "blah bla blah bla blaa, now here's a song you don't like followed by some patronising ads with rambling disclaimers".

Only Phantom for music, Newstalk for the other shiz.

I don't understand why people listen to the radio - 2 idiots babbling back & forth in D4 accents trying to be witty, terrible annoying ads, followed by even worse music. Why do you need someone to tell you what to listen to? "Please tell me what's cool at the moment, Mr. Radio Presenter." Even the OP says he hates it, yet feels like it's compulsory! WTF? That makes no sense.

Any time my wife puts it on in the car, it's either one of those 3 Rihanna songs that sound the same, Black Eyed Peas, which have to be the worst band in the world, Lady Gaga or Lily Allen... or whatever other fad happens to be in at the time.

IMO, people who listen to the radio have no interest in music. They're the same people who say "I like a little bit of everything" when asked what music they like, when they actually have no clue what "everything" is because all they know is chart music - i.e. the same 20 songs played over & over. Just because you think Nickelback is "rock" & sing along to that wretched 'Rock Star' song like a knob, doesn't mean you like a little bit of everything.

LOL - rant over.

2fm are after stepping up their game at night. Actual good music, very surprised.

I just have spin on in the car all the time, 'cuz I'm young and 'hip'

Very odd radio station selection

No Today FM but a couple of Dublin stations that us rural folk can't pick up on our crystal sets.

Red_Marauder

I listen to RTE Radio 1 all day, bar the 2pm Whineline slot as per a thread on that topic recently.
I don't even use my ipod for music anymore. I literally listen to Radio 1 from Maxi first thing in the morning, to Late Date last thing at night. It's like a Radio Station I would have designed myself.

That probably makes me approx 180 years old.

All those artists you named are what I would call pretty talented. Well the black eyed peas don't exactly write amazing lyrics but truth be told Will.i.am is fairly talented as a producer.

I don't see why some people choose to hate chart music just because its on the charts. Sure you mightn't like their music and that's fine and everything but you can't pass them off as being terrible just because it's being played on the radio.

Most people who say they like a bit of everything though don't really "like a bit of everthing". Most of them would be the type who would call metal or classical music crap without even listening to it.

Personally, I like a bit of everything from pop to blues to funk to hip hop to soul to metal to rock to classical to jazz

Oh yeah, I listen to Spin 1038 or 2FM :P

admiralofthefleet

Boxfresh

Ray D'arcy in the morning and Matt Cooper in the evening, I can't stand Ray Foley at midday. It would probably be alright if I was 14 or 15 doing my Junior Cert.

Kelda09

I have a crappy car radio but am very lucky toget I102-104. Brilliant station. however, at home, I listen to whatever station I can get. Anything from lyric fm to today fm. Once theres music, Im happy.

Bajingo

I listen to the fm104 phoneshow..it's great stuff so it is..if im awake when that's over ill switch to newstalk and im asleep in no time..

Hank_Jones

No Today FM
No Phantom

Bit of an void thread/poll really.

It's as if you picked the radio stations that you listen to and then just put them in the poll.

You have FM104 but no 98FM, which is strange considering they are very similar stations.

Edit: Forgot to mention that the stations I listen to are Today FM, Phantom, BBC Radio 1 and 2fm sometimes.
I didn't vote in the poll as it didn't have Today FM, which is generally what I listen to.

alwaysadub

Yeah crap poll really!
I listen to Today Fm.
2fm when in work cos i've no choice. Spin SW
And when i can get it i102-104.

El Siglo

Would it be possible if we came up with Atari Jaguar FM? A boards radio station. AH could be on at the same time as the AK phone show on FM104.;)

Ah yes, the taste police. What's the punishment for having different taste again? I forgot.

Phantom & Dan Hegarty's 2FM show are the only things in any way tolerable on Irish radio.

The punishment as assigned and ratified by all UN nations is having to have the same username as the user with the most inappropriate name on boards in relation to thier opinoins and posts but being forced to include a 2 at the end. As you are well aware.
