Default Time for a 97.1 The Drive plug


(never mind that my handle on the Michigan Radio and TV Buzzboard has
been "971The DriveFan", though I devised it several years ago, and
while the romance has gone, I still enjoy The Drive, and especially
Bob Stroud's on-air moments--truly a classic on-air personality)

Well, apparently The Drive is doing an A-Z starting this weekend.

It's hardly a unique "stunt", but it's the first time I can recall
WDRV doing it since it went to its hybrid classic rock/classic
hits/oldies format (it's been kind of eliminating the 60's oldies from
its mix the last couple of years, alas).

Even still, it's a well conceived concept, even if the ad money goes
to the Mormons (via Bonneville Broadcasting).
