Triple M Network

Did anyone else in the network do the Lockdown 400 Countdown? If not, they must’ve got it sorted pretty damn quickly. Lockdown was only announced at 12:30pm Sunday…

What’s the bet it’s just their regular playlist with a few sweeps thrown in.

Wouldn’t had taken too long. So long as the production was ready.

Didn’t Melbourne do a similar countdown when they were in their 2nd wave?

They probably just ran that playlist.

They could have localised it by removing one song and adding an Eskimo Joe song in.

Matty O on in the afternoon on Brisbane’s Triple M. Must be filling the role of a network floater?

The Marty Sheargold Show is growing on me. Sounds more polished every day as it finds it’s groove.

The national highlights show at 3pm sounds a bit under done though. I guess like most of these edited highlight shows they just sound too fast paced and fake. The slower organic nature of the actual live breakfast show is far superior.

92.9 lockdown no 1 in the lockdown 400 was the The police ‘don’t stand so close to me’.

92.9 have opted to stay with local this afternoon instead of the networked shows with the countdown ending at 4.30.

Australian music quota, anyone?

92.9 used to run OzMade at 10pm weeknights years ago when they were a Triple M/Today hybrid then Today only from 2005. Sort of feels like that era again.

That is good news, there are lots of Australian rock bands currently signed to major and mini-major labels who draw healthy crowds at gigs but have been ignored by Triple M in favour of more Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pearl Jam, Nirvana et al from the 90s. Let’s hope this will mean more air time for local bands. EON FM (as well as MMM Sydney, FM104 Brisbane and 96FM Perth) in the 80s played a very good amount of Australian music.

The Triple M summer session (NRL show) with Maroon & James Hooper must be pre recorded with the boys in the podcast one studios today.

That doesn’t surprise me, less likely to be breaking football news at this time of year.
