mikeydny Posted November 27 Report Share Posted November 27 Is quite possibly the only decent radio station down here, all I listen to is house music, hating hiphop/rap more and more by the day, but I also like zeta more and more everyday.Power 96 sucks monkey balls, they played that I'll Fly away with you song in July for the first time, and said it was exclusive, meanwhile I had it since March, horrible. Someone put this station out of its misery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beyondo Posted November 27 Report Share Posted November 27 You dont have to tell us about Power 96 its awful.........i blame them a lot for such an awful music scene here playing crap.and Zeta is cool its basically all we have but to tell you the truth for the Major Market Miami is the rock station in other cities ive been to is much better . i usually put on cd's of rock/ House on....or Catch Big 106 (105.9) thats a good station if you liek older rock.

meng Posted November 27 Report Share Posted November 27 The bad thing about Zeta is not it's fault...it's that all this new rock music sucks ass......you may be better off listening to BIG106 and catching Pink Floyd, Rush, or Led Zeppelin......but to hear the same Blink 182, Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, and Incubus tracks 5 times a day......fuck that.....this is a bad era for rock music in my opinion....the last time good bands started popping up was in the early nineties with bad-ass bands such as Alice in Chains, Primus, Rage Against The Machine(which almost every band is copying now by the way), Pearl Jam, Nirvana, etc......at least they made people stop listening to Skid Row and Poison that's for sure.

pod Posted November 28 Report Share Posted November 28 Zeta sucks due to the content of rock made after 1990. Rock died after Guns N Roses released Use Your Illusion I and II. 106 is decent. I'm not big into rock in general, but the older stuff is good and plus, it's the only thing my boss and I can agree on to listen to at work. Of course, when he takes a vacation, in goes Deep Dish, Robbie Rivera, or whatever I have on me ...Stern in the morning is a big plus. Screw Paul Castellano, he's just imitating the best. Oh, and Power 96 sucks too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beyondo Posted November 28 Report Share Posted November 28 Meng and Pod we ALMOST agree here .....creepy. Zeta is Ok ....could be better if you guys are in West Palm Put on the Buzz 103.1 thats what a complete rock station sounds liek they play the best of all rock new and old.i usually skim threw zeta and hardly ever stop anymore.Big 106 has better overall rock and Howard Stern in the morning ruules !! he is way ahead of that god awful Bo Griiffin on Power and wannabe Sterns on Zeta.

pod Posted November 28 Report Share Posted November 28 Did hell freeze over, beyondo? I can see you are a Stern-ite too...let's put it this way, when Hank passed on, I was at the local memorial at The Playwright that evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plasticity Posted November 29 Report Share Posted November 29 Rock died after GNR's albums? Dude, get your head out of your ass. There are so many bands after that compare or surpass GNR's music. Not to knock on GNR itself, but what u just said was totally ignorant. I can go on about rock music forever.. so bring it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phrankadelic Posted November 29 Report Share Posted November 29 power 96 blows. period. end of discussion on that. wvum is right behind it too. can't stand that weak-ass station.zeta's alright. usually when i hear some of the grunge stuff from the early 90's. can't stand the new stuff comin out. i mean...smooth criminal??? wtf is that?IF i listen to the radio...it's usually big 106. i'm a HUGE classic rock fan b/c of my older brother. the police, FLOYD, zepp....all that.

meng Posted November 29 Report Share Posted November 29 hey have you heard Oysterhead yet? They fucking jam!!!! I highly reccommend you get that CD.....It's Stewart Copeland on drums(The Police drummer), Les Claypool on bass and vocals(Primus), and Trey Anastasio on guitar and vocals(Phish)......this album and this band is probably the best thing to happen to rock music these days......

phrankadelic Posted November 29 Report Share Posted November 29 actually i have sean. VERY good to say the least. i haven't picked up their cd tho...but I'm looking to do so in the near future. i'm a VERY big fan of copeland. to me, he's the best drummer EVER. very close to neil pert from rush, but i still like him better. copeland's been doing scores for movies ever since the police broke up. glad to see he's in another band...with great talent surronding him. guess he needed the right mix. i mean anything other than the police would be a step down in my opinion.

meng Posted November 29 Report Share Posted November 29 Phrank, HBO has a series that's been played this past week with 3 or 4 songs live from Oysterhead along with some other bands....I forgot the name of the series though....They showcase live bands.........as far as best drummer ever.....Stewart is up there in my top 3.....Neil Peart used to be my top drummer....until I heard Carter Beuford from Dave Matthews band.....I don't think anyone is better than Carter....I've seen him live twice and also have the Dave Matthews Listener Supported DVD......Carter is in a league of his own.....whatever Neil and Stewart could do....Carter could do it playing right handed OR left handed......plus his licks are amazing....

mikeydny Posted November 29 Author Report Share Posted November 29 Howard Stern is great, so funny when he rips on baby booey, I love watching the show on E, I wish it was on HBO though or something so they didnt blur everything out.

patrickl Posted November 30 Report Share Posted November 30 Zeta is just your garden variety mainstream rock station - it's nothing special. I'd rather hear Big 106 myself, which in itself is a garden variety classic rock station........but it is a reflection of how much better rock was *then* as opposed to *now*..........I can listen to Floyd, Zep, Rush.......or Staind, Godsmack and Creed. This is not a tough decision. Yeah, Zeta still plays some Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and AIC which is cool.........HOWEVER they only seem to play the SAME tracks over and over again!! It's as if Pearl Jam has never released anything besides Jeremy, Even Flow, and Daughter. Hell, according to Zeta, the ONLY thing Nirvana ever released was smells like teen spirit because that's ALL they play of them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeacasta2 Posted November 30 Report Share Posted November 30 Led Zepplin is a group of gods that decided to come to earth and play muzik. I'm a HUGE Led Zepplin fan! I hate the played out songs they always play on the radio though. I'm also really fond of the doors, the stones and acdc. Back in Black is one of the best heavy metal albums ever made!

shroomy Posted November 30 Report Share Posted November 30 God, its good see you young punks appreciating the classics. Floyd, Zep. The Who etc!!!Lets add the Eagles, Stones, The Guess Who, Steve Miller, Joe Walsh, Santana, and the Dead (more for the scene than the music)As for Oysterhead. Yes Meng, yes they jam (was the pun intended?) I do miss Phish.. shitty albums but a great time at their shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meng Posted November 30 Report Share Posted November 30 You know I can't really listen to any of their albums, but I have heard that witnessing their live show is something not to be missed....especially if you're "Shroomied"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do miss Phish.. shitty albums but a great time at their shows. lol .. hell yeah, I actually grew up listening to the likes of Pink Floyd (my favorite all time band), Led Zep, The Police, Jimi Hendrix and whatnot. I love The Eagles and The Who, two of my all time favorites. We cant forget about Yes, Blue Oyster Cult, Creedence Clearwater Revival, David Bowie, ELO (Electric Light Orchestra), Jimmy Buffet, Alan Parson's Project, The Beatles, Foreigner, Genesis, The Pretenders, ect, ect ect which all came out with classic shit ...
