Open Letter To 4ZZZ

An open letter demanding more local airplay from 4ZZZ and IndigiBriz, with his own count of how few local bands actually got played.

I applaud the work you have done with IndigiBriz and how you're trying to reform it to be more youth centred.

What we don't like is hearing the Flangipanis or Dead Kennedy's for the 100th time in a day. Play bands that actually need the attention. Play small local bands that work hard to promote their stuff.

@ calculated the percent of local bands they played in the punk shows last five shows and they averaged only 27% local bands with the highest show showing having 46% percent which is horrible for a community radio.

You need to pay 4ZZZ money if you want them to even have an ear by becoming a subscriber. That shouldn't be a thing for a radio station that's supposed to support the local scene.
