Re: Re: My Approach to Making Requests

(Michael pages in... haven't had a chance to keep up with the message boards recently. I have too many hobbies, I tell you!)

Anyway, our shows tend to co-incide to your morning/afternoon hours. When a show is running, everything gets pushed back. Tuesdays, from 8am to noon your time are when we do the Gagliarchives replay. Four hours right there. And the requests back up fairly heavily during those times.
Yep, I've noticed that. I tend not to make requests during shows for those reasons.

(In fact, there's a song on the playlist which was getting played seemingly every morning for a while which I simply could not stand, and I'm happy if it means we'll be hearing less of it!)

Which one? If you could give me a name, I'll see if it's being overrequested and yank it if necessary. Who knows, you might even get a round of applause from the regulars!
Heh. I was reluctant to mention it since I didn't want several people to say, "But... but... that's one of my favorite songs!" (Or, for all I know, the artists lurk here.) But since you ask, the song was "Oceans Deep" by Strangefish.

As I think I noted, though, it hasn't been played much recently. About 3 months ago it seemed to be getting played every morning.
