    the only good music station in philly right now, and has been for a long time, is 88.5 and that is not nearly a debate. i can't believe how many people still listened to wysp and mmr. once mmr did away with the tenclub at 10, i was done with them.

    ipod.
    88.5
    sirius.

    that's all you need...when you're not getting a lil sports fix every now and then.

    this. also XPN 2, but if you want good alternative philly music go to y-not radio. It was founded by Josh T. Landow (formerly of y100, my fav philly station).

    http://ynotradio.net/

    Also as far as 104.5 this is just an updated version of y100. Play just the hit singles and a few "alternative" new stuff like Kings Of Leon (past two albums), Arcade Fire (The Suburbs), The Black Keys (Brothers), MGMT ( Kids and Time To Pretend).

    y100 was my fav station. then they went away in '04 and become a rap station. At first i was upset and pissed as were hundreds of others, but then they went online at y100rocks.com and then to xpn for a few years and not y-not radio for the past year. Now they get to play what they want and not what corporate radio tells them to play. hands down best station out there.

    For those that care they added Michael Barkann to 610's Lineup

    He'll be with Ike Reese...Mike and Ike

    yeah....y100 kind of took over the alt rock mantle for dre but i thought they got a bit too mainstream towards the end. i always enjoyed that station....i followed them online for a while but lost interest...

    where is y-not radio now? online?



    phantom--i've always liked barkann on comcast. think that's a good move. would have liked to have seen jodi mac though.

    I never got into WYSP, most of it seemed way too heavy for me. I did win 20 tickets to an eagles game, a party bus down and a free party at chickies before the game from WYSP while I was sitting at Liberties drinking my face off one Sunday afternoon keeping my girl company from WYSP and Orgilio Beverage.

    Ha, Origlio Beverage. I had that account when I sold security equipment. Those guys were awesome. Every time I went there for something they gave me a free case of beer...my choice.

    Thats awesome. Not a bad client to have. I thought someone was fucking with me, they called me a few weeks after that Sunday at Liberties and told me I won that shit. I didn't believe it for a second. Turned out to be true and a great day.

    sounds like a good time.

    I actually had the eagles as my account too. They were a pain in the ass, but I got to go on the field a bunch of times. Have pics standing in dawkins locker too. I hated that job though...that industry sucked ass

    this kickoff rule is fucking gay

    I wonder if 101.9 will do the same if their "news" format flops. I know Boston recently rolled an FM sports talk station and one exists in San Francisco.

    I'm with you on Jody Mac. He does some weekend stints on 1050 in New York. I remember when he was an early host on WFAN.
