This NY radio station is playing all the songs from NLOTH every hour on the hour today.
Magnificent sounded just that on the radio!
Is this normal? Do local stations usually do this with albums (play the entire record) or do they stick with only the official single? Just trying to put it in context to understand if this means anything above and beyond business as usual.
BTW, I'm not a big radio listener
On album release day usually anticipated albums are played heavily on Edge 102.1 over here.
Spectrum - CH 45 on XM is playing White As Snow now.

I love southern Ontario radio. We get a ton of U2 played around here, even between albums. And Boots is huge here, getting a ton of airplay.

I'd love to have a city that actually gave a shit about U2.
I think I heard U2 on Detroit radio MAYBE twice?
I doubt I'll be hearing anything off the new album on my drive home.
only time we didn't have satellite radio on, heh.Damn my stations blow. I admit I am not religiously listening, but they played Boots today.
