Jonesy gets competition....

Post by Gooch »

JOHN LYDON, the former SEX PISTOLS frontman also
known as JOHNNY ROTTEN, will host his own radio
show for the recently relaunched San Diego radio
station 91X. Dubbed "Rotten Moments," the show
debuts later this year. Estranged Pistol guitarist
STEVE JONES has been hosting his own radio show,
"Jonesy's Jukebox," for Los Angeles-area indie
rock radio station 103.1FM . . .

From Rotten's website:
John Lydon is pleased to lend his support to the relaunch of San Diego radio station 91X; “I am pleased and pleasantly surprised that 91X – which used to be a stunningly good radio station – is now going to be a stunningly good radio station once again… I’ve had good bleedin’ memories with 91X and I’m telling you, it just might have a chance to be as good as it once was.”

John will not be presenting a show for 91X but has already recorded various supportive voiceovers and quotes which the station will be using. Check out 91X on-line via their web site…

It says that he will NOT be presenting a show, just using his voice over.

RP lyrics

Have you Realised that Rock Stars
Always seem to lie so much?
John Lydon once said he cared
But he never really gave a fuck
Said he'd use the money he made
So that people would have somewhere to go
But now he lives in the USA
and Snorts Coke after the Show.

Why is it that Rock Stars
Always seem to lie so much?
JOE STRUMMER once said he cared,
but he never really gave a fuck
Said he'd use the money he made
To set up a radio station to make the
Airwaves full of something more than Shit
Have you noticed we're still Waiting?

You must realise that Rock Stars
Always seem to lie so much
Some will always tell you that they care,
But they don't really give a fuck,
Still you suckers don't ever learn
That rock stars deal in money not truth
It's good Buisiness to exploit you
Just look at Lydon or STRUMMER for Proof.

From the 91X website:
91X's Official Spokesperson
As we enter a new era, under the wings of a brand new, locally owned company (Finest City Broadcasting), we have enlisted the services of one of our old friends to serve as our official spokesperson-- Mr. John Lydon (known to some of you as Johnny Rotten). Whatever you call him, you can see what he's up to by clicking here and stay tuned for plenty of Rotten moments on 91X in 2006!

KBZT

Yeah, not only is John Lydon no Steve Jones, he's also no Halloran.

KBZT is still the best San Diego station.

91X is the station that our own TK used to work at, and that Halloran made into the powerhouse it used to be.

However, all of 91X's good jocks (other than TK, of course) are all at KBZT.

Listen to Halloran's podcasts, if you don't believe me. (I was just listening to his Robert Plant interview today...that man--Halloran, that is--is just an amazing interviewer.)

If 91X was really playing dirty, they'd put Lydon opposite Halloran (2-6 pm). Halloran would still win, though.

no worries

Post by MicheBel »

I don't think Jonesy should worry. It's not like Lydon's going to be on air.

Promos are a whole different thing.

All I'm concerned about is that Jonesy doesnt start becoming bored because he is doing this everyday for 50+ weeks a year. I hope he finds things to keep himself interested. He just has to be creative, like David Letterman or Conan O'Brien.

But then he can always fall back on just playing music. I wonder if Jonesy ever found the flock of biRds he was looking for.
