Just today I took a peek into the kitchen of a local eatery and there were the two thirty-something cooks tuned like usual to an all sixties music channel with a strong leaning to R&B. Oldies don't just appeal to pensioners.
Great point. I'm in my thiries and I love the more oldies-focused, or at least "classic rock" (i.e., 60s, 70s and 80s) focus stations. If 103.9 The Juice in Kelowna had personality whose voice I
could actually listen to in mornings and at midday, that'd be my "go to" radio station for Kelowna.
Really, the Canadian content restrictions are less if a radio station airs '80s music (or earlier? Didn't know that.
