As a radio DJ, I enjoy interacting with almost everyone (if you are an a-hole - then I don't enjoy it), but I want to be honest for a minute about request...
We here at radio can tell when a band informs their "street team" or fanbase when to hit up a station and request the crap out of a song... and I'll be honest, when this happens I start to refuse to play it. Not because it's a bad song or that "I don't want to give the people what they want"... I just know that when a load of request come in for some random song that is not being played on our station that the "street team" is on the move.
Please understand where I am coming from on this... it's nothing against the band, but it's annoying when everyone and their mother are "on point" making request because their new favorite band told them to...
