Ecstasy Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Billed as The True Oldies Channel - 94.7 FMYou can reach them at WZZNFM.com, then click on Contact Us which will give you a list of station departments (they also have a concert schedule to consider!) This is the station that Gina has had so much success with and Eric did the interview around the holidays.Billed as The Greatest Hits of All Time - Y103.9 FMYou can reach them at y1039.com, then click on About Us for their list of departments (I did not see a concert schedule on their website, though.)Both of these stations are for the Chicago-metro area. I don't know about the second station, but the first one has a large listening audience to replace us losing Chicago's long-standing oldies station which turned into JACK FM. (I still haven't gotten over that one!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackhawkpat Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 97.1 FM (The Drive) in Chicago can be reached through www.wdrv.com Bob Stroud is a huge Raspberries fan who attended the Chicago show in 04 and usually announces each members birthday when it occurs and plays a Raspberries song or two. It's the only station I have ever heard "I'm A Rocker" on here and Stroud tries to play GATW, IWBWY, LP and OS every chance he gets. DEFINATELY get something into his hands for promotion.

Brian Michael Page Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 WWBB 101.5 - aka "B101" in Providence RI has played "Go All the Way" mainly, but every now and then they will play "Overnight Sensation" or "Let's Pretend" for a spell. I do remember maybe once hearing "I Wanna Be with You" on that station. http://www.b101.com A few years back, one of the B's finest (I forgot which one) played GATW, then played OS later on in his show that night to show "another side of Eric's writing".BMP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 The 60s on XM and The Loft on XM are fans. Phlash Phelps plays The Choir sometimes and Mike Marronne will periodically spin a certain Hit Record (which I think will be a hit all over again).

rubbersoul8939 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Sirius Radio has played "GATW" on their "Totally 70's" channel quite a few times. Also "Little Steven's Underground Garage" has played the Raspberries and "It's Cold Outside" by the Choir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Hi Al. Here in New Zealand the one station that often plays Eric's and Raspberries music is Solid Gold FM. Its a hits of the '60s & '70s mainly station. GATW, Overnight Sensation and Lets Pretend are the most common ones they play. Of course Hungry Eyes and the like get some airtime too.The breakfast time DJ is a guy called Kevin Black (Blackie) but others often play our boys music during their stint over the day. Here is the station info.StudioPhone: 0800 SOLID GOLD 0800 765 434Fax: 0800 GOLD FAX 0800 465 332email: studio@solidgoldfm.co.nzPostal AddressP.O Box 47 560PonsonbyAucklandNEW ZEALAND.This is the station we listen to most of the time during the day. It is a National station so they broadcast right across the country.Muzza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For anyone else that might listen to 105, keep your ears open for both ~ I always get so jazzed when I hear Eric's songs and the 'Berries on the radio! Of course I'm not overly fond of John Lanigan, lol...but that's another story! This is a cool thread, can't wait to see all the posts!

Muzza Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Hey Al..... just wondered if you were able to get anything through to Solid Gold FM here in New Zealand. Kiwi spoke to them today after they played "Go All the Way". The announcer, who name is also Muzza, knew a reasonable bit about the boys but has asked Kiwi to email more info. He was able to name all the members of the band which is something I guess. He also played "All By Myself" later in his show.Kiwi told him about the bands reunion and the release of the CD at the end of the month. She also pointed him towards both the Raspberries Online website and Eric's website. Maybe we'll get Raspberries music selling in New Zealand yet. All we need is a distributor of their music to follow our work up.Muzza and Kiwi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
