Ahochaude, you mind if I ask what led to this? You don't strike me as a "beach boys" kinda' guy (The Man personally can't stand their music .)

I see, I see. That station has some pretty cool tunes, Jr. Walker's Shotgun. Ain't Too Proud To Beg . . . by, what? The Temptations? Hey, look, I"m not a time-traveller or The Highlander, OK?

[ahochaude]

Oh yeah, the Temptations are awesome! I also like the Rolling Stones. (favorite song- Paint It Black)

I burned my dad all kinds of oldies stuff for his enjoyment..... and mine.

A couple years back, I think. Late 90's when they were having that whole Rolling Stones revival tour and they were making big bucks with it, too. It was supposedly one of the highest grossing tours ever. Never underestimate the power of the middle-age folk! They can be a powerful and formidable age bracket. And 18-34 is supposed to be THE category that all advertisers and tv stations try to reach nowadays.

Oh, I was probably in high school at that time so no wonder it doesn't ring a bell.


Thanks for the information though. I didn't know about the marketing strategies that adverts and media really target.

Well, I've always classified them as "pop-ish alternative rock," but what do I know? Actually, I do know this: raisins suck!!

Listening to Joshua Radin - Winter.
