I see it being less about “Australian exceptionalism” and more that I want acts that I can actually see live. International acts often add Australia as a distant stop. The benefit of a healthy local industry is the chance to actually see artists live or interviewed on TV/radio. The past 2 winners of the Hottest 100 haven’t even done an audio message or phone call for the station.

The recent cancellations of music festivals shows how much the music industry currently relies on international acts to draw crowds right now.

Yumi, Jay & the Doctor all returning to Double J

Weekends are about to get a whole lot spicier on Double J. Not only is regular fill in Yumi Stynes (pictured below) taking up a permanent spot on breakfast, from 8am on Saturday and Sunday mornings, with Caz Tran now moving to afternoons, but Frenzal Rhomb incendiaries Jay and the Doctor (that’s Jason Whalley and Lindsay McDougall, main picture, Lindsay, the Doctor, is wearing the shirt that I covet that says Farnsy) are also back as February Artists in Residence. You can hear them at 3pm Sundays.

Jason Whalley was terrible on Triple J back in the day, the Jay and the Doctor breakfast show was atrocious compared to Adam and Will… and now he’ll return to Double J? I’m not excited.

Sounds like the keys to the studios have been given to underage presenters on a Friday night.

In Sydney, where the two stations currently go head to head, in the latest GFK ratings survey, triple j leads in the 18-24 demographic with a cumulative audience of 39,000, while CADA is nipping at their heels with 36,000.

Pretty dire for Triple J almost getting beaten by a glorified jukebox.

Noticed a new (I think new anyway) triple j ad around on YouTube, interesting ads start as 2Day goes younger

830

Seen it a few times over the last couple of weeks. Outdoor advertising has ramped up in Melbourne too.

Think it’s coincidental timing, but interesting that they’re getting back into the marketing game.

Captured the outage loop on Triple J this morning, recorded via @tvcl’s FM DX Webserver:

Other stations were down too.

832

Was’nt the outage only to do with the online radio streams?

833

Nope. Lots of regional transmitters had issues. See post here: Random Radio - #6521 by tvcl

Video of various transmitters being off-air here also:

You don’t understand how much i shutter when I hear that, given we have to check the back-up audio every annual maintenance for each AM or FM service on a site. So if the site has 4 ABC services we get to hear it 4 times at that site, one after the other
Here I was thinking hearing Paparazi by Lady Gaga on 4AK was bad enough, at least it was music :slight_smile:

Tickets on-sale today 2pm AWST / 5pm AEDT

Get ready to hit the road with triple j because One Night Stand is back and this year, we’re going West. On Saturday 24 May, triple j’s One Night Stand will touch down in Barnard Park, Busselton on Wardandi Boodja.

Set amongst the South West region of WA, Busselton is a charming coastal town, alive with the buzz of hosting some of the biggest names in Australian music in their own backyard. Less than a 3-hour drive from Perth, Barnard Park is surrounded by white sands and clear blue waters alongside the longest jetty you’ll ever see (in the Southern Hemisphere). With a proud tradition of supporting live music, Busselton joins the ranks of regional towns that have welcomed triple j’s iconic concert series, marking the event’s long-awaited return to WA after nearly a decade.

Just moments ago, triple j’s Ash McGregor went live from the famous Busselton Jetty to unveil this year’s One Night Stand location to our favourite Drive duo, Abby & Tyrone. Locals were already hot on the case, after spotting familiar local landmarks during triple j’s livestream yesterday and earlier today. The hype is already building, with on-ground ticket sales moving fast for locals who pieced all the clues together.

If you’re not in town right now, general on-sale for triple j’s One Night Stand begins today at 2pm AWST/5pm AEDT. Head here to purchase and for all ticketing information.

In 2025, all proceeds from One Night Stand ticket sales will be donated to the Australian music industry charity Support Act and Australian youth music charity, The Push (applications for their ONS All-Ages Events Team are open now, head here), alongside Undalup Association and Karri Karrak Aboriginal Corporation.

Stay tuned to find out more information, including all the details on triple j’s More Than A One Night Stand Sessions, coming soon.
