Are those 10 artists the only people your station plays? lol I used to live in the middle of the Adirondacks and that is the exact same playlist the one non-country station followed. I think they had ten greatest hits albums and every once in a while they played some Rush. You could set your watch to when they played AC/DC.

OK. I've got to step back in here.

First of all you folks have seriously derailed Mr. Braun's thread.

Secondly, Kiss was simply the bridge between Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson and I wouldn't be surprised if they collect a royalty for every time their name appears in print on the internet.

And lastly, I'm a DJ for the number one rock station in Bangor, Maine (where?) and have been playing all of the bands that have been mentioned since 1981 (with the exception of Vanilla Ice). When I was hired they assigned me the radio name of Fred Zeppelin. I didn't want the name but it was either that or Dink Floyd and I wanted the gig, so be it. I start each show with a Led Zeppelin song. The ten most requested bands on my show in order over that time span are:

1. Led Zeppelin
2. Van Halen
3. AC/DC
4. Pink Floyd
5. Aerosmith
6. Rolling Stones
7. ZZ Top
8. Stevie Ray Vaughan
9. Jimi Hendrix
10. Bob Seger

Kiss (another royalty fee) is number 44. The station is in Bangor, Maine but we stream on the web so I take requests from all over the country. We are owned by Stephen King and his wife Tabitha.

Yeah, Zeppelin gets played a lot but that's because they are legendary. Rock on!
