Virgin Radio has snagged Chelsea from the afternoon drive on Cisn and I'm thoroughly enjoying…read morelistening to her on the morning show now. Located just off Stony Plain Road in the complex that also houses CTV (across the street from Walmart). The parking lot is a little stranger and basically behind the building and off to the side (West if you are standing on Stony Plain Road and looking at the building). They have an intercom buzzer system here to get in, so don't stand at the door confused like me; come to think of it, I think this is the only radio station in town where I had to be "buzzed" in. They do tons of giveaways on air and some pretty significant ones, too. Like the current Spring KaChing where they give away 5K 5 times a day to caller 30 - Yep, it's that simple! Now, all I have to do is actually get through on the phone.

I have long been a fan of CKUA radio. It is a great radio station with a wide variety of content,…read morefeaturing Alberta-focused content and all sorts of diverse shows. I came to this actual building for a tour of their music library as part of an Edmonton Public Library Learn Downtown event and was wowed about the purpose-built space. The music collection is lovely and there really is more space down here than I expected. This area isn't normally open to the public but it is essential for the DJs preparing their setlists. We also saw some really great old-fashioned media. I wish I could have stayed longer and seen more. I'm super happy to have been able to visit the music library and get an even greater appreciation for one of my all-time favourite radio stations.

I was in the CKUA building for Jesse and the Dandelions new record release. This was a fun space…read moreand the sound in there was perfect. They have a good vestibule area for people entering the building and for launch events this is filled with vendors. There was merch tables and drink options when we were there. No food but they had free snacks - hard pretzels and chocolate covered strawberries. Entrance Fee was $20 it's cash only. So don't spend your only money on a CD then head out to Jasper Ave to find a cash machine like me. Inside it's pretty and the twinkling fairy lights make the space really appealing. There is lots of room for high tables and audience seating, as well as standing area in front of the stage. A great space for about 80 people. Cool place to hang and watch live music.

Rob and Audie have their morning show and are veterans in the business. They should get rid of the Morning Mindbender though. They ask a question and have people calling in with their guess. With the internet, most people can just find the answer. I also liked Shane Michaels with the afternoon show. They have the Hall of Fame weekends and will play songs from featured artists. I became bored with the repeated songs, and found a new radio station that is now my main one. I will still listen to CapFM when nothing is good on the other station I tune into. They also have a great listener club that you can accumulate points and redeem for event tickets.

I was a mechanic for 10 years and we had K97 or Capital FM on the whole time in the shop,…read moreTerry/Bill/Steve show and Melissa Wright are what got me through working crappy 9+ hour days of work. K97 and Capital FM getting ownership from NewCap to Stingray in 2018 was a bust and canning Melissa Wright after so many years was a dirty move. Terry and Pete is an ad-filled snooze fest morning compared to Terry/Bill/Steve 10 years ago The worst part is the repetitiveness, every hour is the same garbage pop music by The Tragically Hip, The Beatles, and Queen. Every few hours you might hear something finally good off of Led Zeppelin IV or The Wall, then back to more repetitive pop music. It's not a rock station if you hear Stairway to Heaven, Comfortably Numb, etc once every 2-3 days yet hear Bohemian Rhapsody what seems like 4x daily. It's seriously a stretch to call "Here comes the Sun" by the Beatles, "Lucy in the sky with Diamonds", and half the whiny music the Tragically Hip play as rock music. You can clearly tell these guys are milking The Tragically Hip to hit CanCon minimums, 5 years ago they would play BTO twice an hour and now instead it's Tragically Hip twice an hour. Try playing Chilliwack, Streetheart, Prism, etc more to hit those CanCon minimums Only thing that makes K97 bearable anymore is Rock of the West at night when people request actual good music, otherwise I have Spotify on until 7pm

It is amazing to finally have another option for country radio in the area!! After the shananigans…read morethat the OTHER station pulled, it left the fans wondering what we would do. But low and behold... We have Sean and Mike back on the air! This is a true community station and they have been doing so much to boost the area! I don't even live in Leduc but they make me wan to drive out there for their events! Good job guys... keep it up. I look forward to listening to you for YEARS to come.

I am not sure how I feel about this radio station yet. It is the newest pop music channel in…read moreEdmonton. If you have heard the bounce, this is pretty much the same thing with the same music. They play the same songs at about the same time and it probably isn't a coincidence. Each station probably fears losing its listeners according to which song might be playing. When it first started HOT 107 played 10,000 songs commercial free which lasted a really long time and now it is just commercial free Monday's (also like the bounce). One thing I do enjoy about this station is that they are on the air with Ryan Seacrest 11am - 3pm, Monday to Friday. I get bored of hearing the same old Edmonton radio hosts so I welcome the change. You can pretty expect much of the same from this station as the bounce. I do like how they compete against each other and that gives me more options now. If one's playing crappy music I just tune in to the next one.

Some people complain about EZ Rock, but it's really not that bad…read more It's probably the only radio that you can play in an office building or store that you can be sure will play the same kind of music consistently. All of EZ Rock's music is appropriate for audiences of all ages (which is why it's played in malls and such, and so is the commentary. They play some good stuff - oldies and contemporary music - that is laid back. They don't have heavy metal or rap songs making you jump out of your car seat. They exist to be a family friendly station that is relaxing and low key. They accomplish this goal very well.

A lot of people would probably describe EZ Rock as "old people" music, but I often find it very…read morerelaxing. The music is usually older stuff, but if it is newer, it is slower and softer than any of the stuff on The Bounce or Sonic or anything. I enjoy listening to the comforting music when I am driving in the evening. People can call EZ Rock "old people music", but if you're looking for something soft and comforting EZ Rock is the way to go!

The bounce is a hit music station in Edmonton. They used to be the only option for pop rock, hip…read morehop and current top 40 hits, but now we also have Hot 107 as well. I don't mind the bounce but like other reviewers have written, it has gone mainstream. I think this was destined from the start, but ahh well. The music isn't bad, but there is a lot that they play that I hate. I do like the radio personalities they have on in the morning. Pepper & Dylan used to annoy me a lot, but now I like listening to them on my early morning drive. Truth is, I switch back and forth between this station and Hot 107, but I prefer this station to Hot 107 because it has local hosts, unlike Hot 107 that has Ryan Seacrest hosting from god knows where.

The bounce used to be good and then it got so mainstream and annoying. I don't understand why they…read moreplay so much bubble gum pop music it feels like no one likes it. Don't get me started on the commercials. I feel like you have to wait 10 minutes before you get to hear a single song. They had a new thing going that was commercial free Monday's but I have heard commercials on Monday's so I am guessing that dream is dead. I think Hot 107 plays a better selection of music and they change it up from pop to r&b to hip hop often so it keeps things fresh. They also have less commercials. I think the Bounce might be losing steam.

My Wife Lori and I have been listening to Shine F.M. since it began many years ago. We used to be a…read morecarpet cleaners many years ago. Then, we used to listen to 930 The Light when Doug Main (Former News Caster) first started the "The Light" approximately 20+ years ago, and now with 3 growing boys Matthew (12), Joseph (10), and Andrew (almost 9) we have 3-4 radios going in our house and van all day and night. No too loud at night though. We both just turned 50 in 150! We were both born 3 weeks apart! And I love her (and of course my 3 boys) dearly!!! And I would like to say Happy 26th Wedding Anniversary to my Wife Lori this Sept 28th, 2017 at exactly 3:00 P.M.!!! Listening to Johnny and Holly in the A.M. on the way to and from work often helped and still helps today lift our tired spirits, and I often listen to David James on the way home from work each day, which along with uplifting conversation from all it is a great alternative to all of the other radio stations out there! The music if one both listens to the words being sung and in turn applies them to their daily walk with the Lord can very much help us all as Christians to help other's around us all Shine! I remember listening to (and still do) the first Kid's Kottage fundraiser that Johnny and Holly did around Christmas time, and how excited, exhilarated, but exhausted they sounded at the end of 12 hours, But it inspired us to give! It is often a hard job sometimes motivating people, and especially for people who care it can take a lot out of a person when reaching out to others! Even us Christians. To Johnny Rocket, Holly Taylor, David James, Jeff Hansen, and Everyone else at both 105.9 Shine and 930 The Light. Thank you for giving of yourselves! There are many of us out here whom you may not think you are making a difference for, but you really do! Sometimes (many times) it was and often still is the right word from God's Word at the right time, or the right word of the right song at the right time, or the words of inspiration that you good folk pass along to us in general conversation, musings or sometimes even jovial bantering, that turned/turns many of our days around!!! May Jesus bless you all at both 105.9 Shine FM and 930The Light! Sincerely, James Lori Matthew Joseph and Andrew Thomas
