Thanks for that Jas... that person has it on the mark, I agree with a majority of those comments. I used to listen to JJJ all the time - you still had to wade through the crud to get to the 'decent' songs - but now... all crud. My time with them has come and gone. Once they were a beacon amongst the carrion of fetted radiostations - now they are the top of the trash heap. Pity that in Brisbane - there is/are no 'alternative' radio station(s) to turn to. Oh yeah - there is ZZZ but please, I want to listen to a clear broadcast and not be inundated by over-zealous overtly left wing political statements. I want music not politics. So having numerous times to 'embrace the zeds' I have given up. The rest are commercial through and through. Fuck I wish we could all run a radiostation. Radiostation/Cafe/Music store/Bookstore/artspace... ahhhh dreams. Anyway, yeah that person who wrote the article hit the nail(s) on the head. Oh and this shows how I haven't been listening to JJJ for a while THEY SACKED JASLYN HALL! YOU UTTER FUCKING BASTARDS. What is the World Music Queen with the coolest on-air voice doing now? Oh Bring back Helen&Mikey, Judith&Helen, Merrick&Rosso (yeah people hate them - but they made my drive home enjoyable. Martin/Molloy had just lost it after the first year. Angela Catterns Michael Tunn and others.

WHY did they do this? - What possible reason could they have to sake jaslyn hall?!?!?!?!?!? - her show was GREAT! - admittedly some weeks I just couldn't listen to it, but other weeks she had some amazing groups on that you never hear anywhere else. Who the hell have they replaced her with? or have they got rid of the world music show completely...?!? Idiots A> Oh Bring back Helen&Mikey, Judith&Helen, Merrick&Rosso (yeah people A> hate them - but they made my drive home enjoyable. Martin/Molloy A> had just lost it after the first year. Angela Catterns Michael Tunn A> and others. agreed. Helen&Mikey were genius. It was because of their duo on a weekday morning that made me make a J-Pole antenna just so i could pick up the station clear enough in my room to listen to. (despite the name, a j-pole antenna has nothing to do with JJJ, its just an antenna that looks like a 'j' and that you can tune to a certain frequency to specifically pick that frequency up). I fell in love with angela catterns, and followed her to abc national, is she still on?? - i haven't listened in a few years... and michael tunn rocked! - we were on first name basis (off air)... He rocked..
