Changes coming to Phoenix, AZ Rocker, 93.3 KDKB. KDKB mornings will soon be covered in Sludge, actually, covered by Sludge, a.k.a. Brian Haddad, coming from Cox Radio/Richmond. Previous to Richmond, Sludge had a successful 10 years in Chicago radio, before he was run out of town by Rod Blagojevich’s mom.

KDKB Station Manager, Bob Weaver says “KDKB has had a history of great morning shows dating back to 1971. As we prepare for our 40th year (in a row) of serving up the best Rock, we wanted someone like Sludge who could help carry the torch as well as the 7 tank tops left over from our 20th….that we’ll be giving away to celebrate.”

And just what kind of show does Sludge say he’s preparing for Phoenix? “Since there’s not much going on right now in Arizona, it will be difficult to find things to talk about, so I’ll probably just read all the TMZ updates. That should work fine.”

I’ve listened to KDKB since it was KCAC back in the day – about 1969-1970…no wonder it’s in the Rock Hall of Fame it was innovative to say the least! Bill Compton, Dwight, Toad Hall and company…Great! Stayed that way for a long time (who could forget Tim and Mark)…but now – it’s just another KUPD/KSLX = what happened? get that mix of new and old going, a ‘behind the music’ scenario, bring in some new listeners with bands like ’slither’ & ‘rehab’ & ‘nickelback’. focus on Phoenix/Arizona stories – concerts.

. the morning show is like a electronic remote control from another city – not focused on the music or this town.

I’ll tell you what KDKB’s problem is. You go to their website and you see pictures of Guns N Roses, Motley Crue, Ozzy, ACDC and Metallica flashing around and then you turn on the radio and hear Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Counting Crows, U2, etc etc. They are promoting one format and playing 2 or 3 completely different ones and its pissing the people they are marketing to off.

even after being completely neutered by that drunk bob weaver king scraped up what litttle integrity he had left and is heading into obscurity..whether he knows it or not.

any radio station that looks at the crap music he plays and that ten dollar an hour fat skank stoner chick he hired will realize how clueless and out of touch he is about today’s audience. kdkb need not worry about any good talent willing to work with that idiot bob weaver…everyone knows what a complete jackass he is. if your a talentless moran,don’t worry, bob will hire you.

any loser who allows someone to neuter them is a weak, non talented idiot. clearly only a desperate loser would stay on and follow the leaders into a black hole of bad radio. steve is just as responsible for being a lame bystander collecting his check and sucking on his way down…

wouldn’t it be nice to know what king stands for…don’t defend that weak minded talentless zero. is kdkb really worth losing all your integrity? just so you can say hey im a pd at a rock station in phoenix… woo hoo. if he had any spine or depth, he’d move forward and find another gig.

KDKB’s higher managament is the issue and from what I know, the PD has been neutered by an old Mr. Burn impersonator and his Smithers lacky. The 2 of them have taken every idea that was given to him by the PD (King) and given it back to the PD the exact opposite of what was the PD wanted. From what I have heard, the PD didn’t want to fire JR and Mary and Hammer, he didn’t want to do be on the air, much less do mornings. Mr. Burns is trying to kill KDKB. And Smithers is along for the ride. Sacrifce another one for the sake of keeping KDKB down and letting KSLX and KUPD reep the benefits. They have been doing this for the past 10 years with the music, then the morning shows and then the PDs. The PD(s) isn’t the problem, it is higher ups the food chain. Long Paul said it best on his Facebook page.

Been listening to KDKB on and off for 93.3 years… okay, actually only about 35 years… but the point is they have gone thru so many changes over the years. They’ve had excellent line-ups, and some really sucky ones. The loss of Alice Cooper’s Nights and J.R., Mary and the Watson in the mornings puts KDKB into “listening off” mode again.
Alice Cooper gone? Really?
Replace J.R. and Mary with Steve? I don’t think so.
Guess I’ll have to find somewhere else to listen until management comes back to their senses.
Adios, rump rangers!
