The Blitz -----> The Rock + Linkin Park
The Columbus rock radio station landscape has been kind of interesting lately. CD101, where I am semi-gainfully employed, seems to be doing pretty well, but it's not for lack of competition. Recently, 106.7 FM The (insert nickname here) launched, bringing a mix of the mainstream stuff that makes discerning listeners like me change the station. U2, Matchbox 20, 3 Doors Down, 311, and all those other numbered bands you just can't live without. (an interesting note: they got Vampire Weekend in-studio. Consider me slightly impressed)
Well, 99.7 The Blitz, known for playing bands like Linkin Park, Puddle of Mudd, and other nu-metal crap, just changed formats. They are now 99.7 The Rock. Expect to hear more much more watered-down, pallatable nu-metal, such as Nickelback. The Other paper ruefully commented last Thursday that this would mean the end of Linkin park for WBZX listeners.
But fear not. Today, while I was working out in the Otterbein gym, the ghetto blaster that is stuck on 99.7 was still playing Linkin Park.
