TACS is CANCELLED after this week, end of an era

Great... more crappy overplayed music you can't get away from. How awesome! This is just what Adam has discussed many times over the years about radio executives and people in radio. Fucking retards!

Seriously, all music radio stations suck. They play the same 20 songs over and over and over and over and over. Just tune in once a month for 3 hours and you've heard it all. The fact that TACS and all of 97.1 couldn't make it is a reflection of society as a whole. People are dumb. It's not the executives fault, they are doing what they have to do. I like listening to political talk radio but 97.1 FM talk was nice and much easier to podcast (you don't have to pay). I talk to some of my friends and ask them, "Hey, do you listen to so and so?" and I get "No, I listen to cd's". Really? You listen to the same cd you've heard 100 times? I honestly had a friend who didn't know when the election was and he went to a good school and has a good job. I talked to him the day of the election and he asked me what was going on and how it worked. Most people under 30 are just idiots and it gets worse the closer you get to 20. Our society is doomed. I am seeing "Idiocracy" forming before my eyes.

Oh no, don't let it be true. That will force me and the other Seattle folks right back into the evil clutches of the BJ Shea Morning Zoo (insert turkey gobble drop here).

I'd rather listen to commercials than have to hear top shelf's laugh just once.

Current KLSX Programming Director Jack Silver is leaving CBS, a company spokeswoman said.

It's a sad day, but I take some small consolation in this, and can't wait until Adam finally tells the full story, somewhere else.

Dont' take me for a hater..i love adam and his show. But i did have to pause back several months when he gloated a bit, taking credit for bulleting danny and its effect on boosting the ratings. Maybe it was a PR thing for him, but i remember thinking, 'Adam, karma's a bitch...be careful"

It's official Feb. 20th 5pm

L.A. Times article:

Beginning Friday at 5 p.m., boosters of urban-skewing artists such as Beyonce, Pink and Britney Spears will have another top 40/"CHR" (contemporary hit radio) station to sing along to in their cars, as L.A.'s only "all-talk" commercial FM station now appears to be all talked out.

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/music_blog...-going-top.html

When I read this headline, "FM talk radio format all talked out? KLSX-FM (97.1) going top 40 Friday"

I want to react like Nicolas Fehn, Fred Armisen's topical comic on SNL.

"Noooooooo.... NO! No!"

1780's Guy, will you lock this particular forum up at some point, after Friday, like you did the Dancing with the Stars forum?

The current plan is to leave this forum alive, since the ACS was a significant portion of Adam's time. I also believe that there will be a "what's Adam doing now?" sort of forum, depending on his future projects. DWTS was only a couple weeks, and he wasn't the star of the show or anything, which is why it was folded into the Lounge and later the TV Forum.

Pssst...

this is the worst news ive heard is so long!!!! acs is the one thing that i look forward to for the day. i'm going to be depressed now. i just started this message board thing since adam is leaving the air. i need to know where he is going or if he is going to be on am radio or not. i've been listening since 11/07 and have loved it since. i only have like 11 months of podcasts so hopefully that will keep me busy for awhile. i hope he does his own podcast at his house with bb, t and dawson. that would be soooooooooo sweet since 75% of his listening public podcasts. he would get the best ratings of all podcasts. has anyone heard from giavanni?????
