Apparently it's caused a online massdebate

Triple M are ******* lame.

So they'll have a countdown which will include Cold Chisel, INXS, Midnight Oil, Easybeats, AC/DC, etc, just like they do every other day of the ******* year.

 

[Bridges]

Well they know their target audience if nothing else.

The rest of Australia will most likely be to embarrassed to tune in...

 

[DU99]

JJJ is funded by us the taxpayers..MMM run by sponsors and the public

 

[Bridges]

Betoota as usual sums it up...

Can anyone help me find the "Cashed up bogan" thread please? I left it lying around somewhere, and I just can't find it.
Maybe I left it behind the "I love VB and Jim Bean & Coke" thread? I'll go look there... Thanks anyway...

Amen

Wait tripple j canceled the hottest 100?! Why? I'm a West Aussie but come over to Sydney for Chrissy hols the meet the missus folks so haven't heard of this till just now what's the go fellow home brewers? Don't tell me it's some political correctness ********?

 

[koshari]

There is a perception that its disrespectful to indigenous australians.

I can't say I've heard triple M play any Australian music that was released this year, or even decade. If they actually supported local music maybe they'd get some converts.

 

[garage_life]

This is good for a larf also.

Not cancelled just moved to the last Saturday in January (even though this will clash in 2019 with Australia day). Then Sunday will be the hottest 200.

This way it's always on a weekend with Sunday to recover.

The idea for the poll came from Triple J producer Lawrie Zion in late 1988.[5] During this time, he conceived the idea of running a listener poll to determine their 100 favourite songs of all time.[1] The idea was allegedly stolen from Brisbane community radio station 4zzz, which developed the original Hot 100 in 1976.

Maybe you guys should try 4 zzz then
