Title: When is the new playlist going to begin
Post by: TampaMillTWC88 on March 03, 2010, 10:41:59 AM
Does anyone have any idea when a new March playlist will begin? We are going into three months now with the same playlist. It is starting to get really tiring. I mean, the playlist is decent, certainly not great.  I like the daytime playlist, and some of the morning songs, but the primetime list is very mediocre (e.g. Sam Spence, the Olympic music, Jurrasic Park :o). The point is, the playlist is not that good to carry on for three months. I guess TWC is no longer carrying monthly playlists.  :hmm: It wouldn't shock me to see this playlist last till mid to late March, and it may not be that soon, either.

The playlists may not be monthly or have any regularity to them for awhile.

Which leads me to believe TWC will be doing more Bi-Tri monthly playlist like the good ol' days between the 80's and 90's

Which means *hopefully* another month of Clouds Of Heaven!  :happy:

I have zero problems with TWC playing three months of the same playlist.

I don't mind the bi or tri monthly playlists as long as it's a solid playlist being used. When they used to do that prior to 2000 the songs on the playlist were a very good mix, this one on the other hand is good, but the primetime part brings it down.

Daytime isn't good either. Hopefully my March list will take its place for now.

Yeah, but I think the primetime is worse.

The daytime is decent. I especially like What If, Spirit, and Nothing But Love. The primetime list sucks! :hammer:   Enough of that Sam Spence stuff! Football season is over! So is the Olympics! I really would like to see a new playlist soon.

Because the playlists have not been the typical types of songs we all are used to, I would rather have a monthly playlist. If things reverted back to the more typical music I would be happy with a bimonthly playlist.

When they play good music, no I do not. The only time I got tired of a playlist was when it seemed like the April 1993 playlist would never end.

I actually had a dream this morning that I heard Santana's Oye Como Va play on the Local on the 8's.

I would rather have a monthly list too. Ever since they canned most of the smooth jazz, the irregularity has occured :(

I'm with most users here in the sense that I usually only upload clips of local forecasts that have some significance to them (during a big snowstorm, an LF with a specific crawl or CC guess, etc). My problem with the length of these lists is that I end up having to upload multiple clips of the same song. There was nothing wrong with monthly lists... it's good to have change sometimes. I always liked hearing new songs each month. As long as I have a chance to catch clips of the songs I like, it's all good.

Awwww, was hoping for the list to last till the end of this weekend. It's odd, though, to see a new playlist to begin at the middle of the week.  :hmm:
