Syndicated Alternative Shows

[XCountry285]

What Syndicated Alternative Shows are there? Is there a countdown show?

 

[wrsg915fm]

I also am looking for new syndicated alternative shows, as we recently lost one, and one has been on hiatus.

The only syndicated Alternative countdown show I know of is the Sixxth Sense with Nikki Sixx. It might only be available to Clear Channel though.

is "out of order" with jed the fish still going?

Yes. They are based on Kroq 106.7 in LA. Heard on Sat morning.

That was a great show! Rock 104 in Gainesville FL used to have it before they suddenly flipped to country about 3 years ago.

This sentence conveys precisely what is wrong with Alternative radio.

KROQ's Stryker will be the new host of "Out of Order" starting the weekend of August 3-4.

Nikki Six is ONLY used on the active and mainstream rock stations. I'm not aware of any Alternative stations using this show.

Jed the Fish will be your only bet.

^99x Cleveland and I'm assuming the rest of the Premium Choice Alternatives use it. The countdown show isn't bad, as the music is Alternative, but his weekday shows are god awful.

I hate Six Sense. Honestly just love when the stations play music. Thought since CHR's have AT40, that Alternatives would have a similar countdown.

"Out of Order" would be the closest equivalent as others mentioned before. I remember that K-Rock in NYC used to run it.

Does anybody remember Modern Rock Live? It aired Sunday nights and features interviews and listener call-ins to alternative artists, similar to Bob Coburn's Rockline. It aired in the mid to late 90s, I believe.

I think that alternative is one of the hardest formats to provide syndicated programming, as different alternative stations vary from one another. There is the CC Premium Choice stuff, and (oddly enough) Nikki Sixx.

Which chart is Out of Order using for its countdown? Or are they charting songs in-house?
