Have any of your local stations played Violet Hill?

Ebs757 · 01-05-2008, 12:15 AM

Ive been checking up on the recently played lists on some stations here in Chicago and they haven't been playing it at all. Im kind of surprised since it is way up there in the UK supposedly. Have you heard it on the radio?

winigwl · 01-05-2008, 12:15 AM

nope

IneedYou23 · 01-05-2008, 12:17 AM

I live in the San Francisco area an they have been playing it,which is very exciting.

rudy_o · 01-05-2008, 12:18 AM

No. Not until the middle of may.

TracieMorgan · 01-05-2008, 12:25 AM

Not yet. The rock station will probably preview it on their Sunday night new music show...I hope!

Lore · 01-05-2008, 12:27 AM

I don't really know.. I don't listen to local radios since most of the radios here play some really bad music

Carolyn Marie · 01-05-2008, 12:34 AM

I'm in Chicago and haven't heard it yet, either. I would imagine the first station it would be played on would be WXRT, though.

rudy_o · 01-05-2008, 12:35 AM

^ Agree!!!

yellowtalk · 01-05-2008, 12:40 AM

Yes. 92.9 from Perth downloaded it as soon as it got online, then the site crashed!

ApproximatelyInfinite · 01-05-2008, 12:42 AM

i don't listen to american radio unless i'm forced to, so i really don't know. however, i seem to recall some other american saying yesterday that it was played...i could be wrong though.

yellowtalk · 01-05-2008, 12:43 AM

hey mike, i know this diverts away from the thread, but what type of pilot are you? commercial?

Fixed · 01-05-2008, 12:44 AM

Stations in the North-West played it at 12:15 on Tuesday but I chose to listen to Radio 1. One station played Trouble to day which was a nice surprise, as I expected Violet Hill to get the Chasing Cars treatment!

yamfox · 01-05-2008, 12:53 AM

I recently heard it on a heavy metal station.... kinda sad that they think it fits in, lol

kittybitty · 01-05-2008, 01:03 AM

KROQ in Los Angeles played it yesterday, I was thrilled (of course, had already heard it). The DJ went on about how much he liked it.

Hmm yeah they are playing the Crows new single all the time, wouldn't doubt it. Maybe WTMX since they play Clocks at least once a day lately
