He didn't know the details of Hallam's medical conditions but he said it's not encouraging. Dene is in his mid-50s, Moby said. I liked Hallam. He was a very well-respected country music PD in his day. He was fired from Kicks soon after Moby was let go in 2002 and part of it may have had to do with his comments to me about test groups thinking Moby sounded too hick for the suburbanites. That created an uproar among country fans and generated an Atlanta magazine cover story. Dene would never talk to me again, although there was never any dispute over the veracity of his statement. Bottom line: he was just being too honest. That's the reason the typical answer I get when people get fired is either the generic "we decided to go in a different direction" or "no comment."</div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom" class="smalltext" width="85%"> <table width="100%" border="0" style="table-layout: fixed;"><tr> <td colspan="2" class="smalltext" width="100%"> </td> </tr><tr> <td valign="bottom" class="smalltext" id="modified_1334894"> </td> <td align="right" valign="bottom" class="smalltext"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201im_/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/Themes/mustang/images/ip.gif" alt="" border="0"/> Logged </td> </tr></table> </td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> </td></tr> <tr><td style="padding: 1px 1px 0 1px;"> <a name="msg1334932"></a> <table width="100%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" border="0"> <tr><td class="windowbg2"> <table width="100%" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" style="table-layout: fixed;"> <tr> <td valign="top" width="16%" rowspan="2" style="overflow: hidden;"> <b><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/index.php?action=profile;u=11876" title="View the profile of RoddyFreeman">RoddyFreeman</a></b> <div class="smalltext"> rimember<br/> <br/> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201im_/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/Themes/mustang/images/useroff.gif" alt="Offline" border="0" style="margin-top: 2px;"/><span class="smalltext"> Offline</span><br/><br/> Posts: 1931<br/> <br/> <br/> </div> </td> <td valign="top" width="85%" height="100%"> <table width="100%" border="0"><tr> <td valign="middle"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/index.php/topic,157335.msg1334932.html#msg1334932"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201im_/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/Themes/mustang/images/post/xx.gif" alt="" border="0"/></a></td> <td valign="middle"> <div style="font-weight: bold;" id="subject_1334932"> <!-- mustang edit --> <a style="color: #00f; font-weight: bold;" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/index.php/topic,157335.msg1334932.html#msg1334932">Re: Former Kicks PD Dene Hallam ill</a> </div> <div class="smalltext">« <b>Reply #1 on:</b> November 20, 2009, 07:12:59 PM »</div></td> <td align="right" valign="bottom" height="20" style="font-size: smaller;"> </td> </tr></table> <hr width="100%" size="1" class="hrcolor"/> <div class="post postFontMustang">In the 1980's, Dene Hallam was one of the most renown and respected programmers in country radio.

He was very outspoken, He believed requests and listener feedback on songs was very important. He stayed away from what was called "turntable records"...the passive songs that climbed the charts despite no passion from the listeners. In Houston in particular I remember him playing songs few other stations were on and not playing songs just about every other country station played. In one article he criticized the "herd mentality" of country radio, how every station played the same exact songs in every market. In 2009 the herd mentality is as common as ever, there are no Dene Hallam's out there. I'm sorry to hear of his passing. </div> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="bottom" class="smalltext" width="85%"> <table width="100%" border="0" style="table-layout: fixed;"><tr> <td colspan="2" class="smalltext" width="100%"> </td> </tr><tr> <td valign="bottom" class="smalltext" id="modified_1335579"> </td> <td align="right" valign="bottom" class="smalltext"> <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201im_/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/Themes/mustang/images/ip.gif" alt="" border="0"/> Logged </td> </tr></table> </td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> </td></tr> <tr><td style="padding: 0 0 1px 0;"></td></tr> </table> <a name="lastPost"></a> <table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"> <tr> <td class="middletext"><span class="navThisPage">Pages:</span> <span class="navThisPage">[1]</span> <a class="navPageNums" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/index.php/topic,157335.10.html">2</a> <span class="navUpDown"><a href="#top">Go Up</a></span></td> <td align="right" style="padding-right: 1ex;"> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td class="maintab_first"> </td> <td class="maintab_back"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/index.php?action=printpage;topic=157335.0" target="_blank">Print</a></td> <td class="maintab_last"> </td> </tr> </table> </td> </tr> </table> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201js_/http://www.radio-info.com/smf/Themes/default/xml_topic.js"></script> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!-- // --><![CDATA[ quickReplyCollapsed = true; smf_topic = 157335; smf_start = 0; smf_show_modify = 1; // On quick modify, this is what the body will look like. var smf_template_body_edit = '<div id="error_box" style="padding: 4px; color: red;"></div><textarea class="editor" name="message" rows="12" style="width: 94%; margin-bottom: 10px;">%body%</textarea><br /><input type="hidden" name="sc" value="300703dd0577aef837e1b568f9db600e" /><input type="hidden" name="topic" value="157335" /><input type="hidden" name="msg" value="%msg_id%" /><div style="text-align: center;"><input type="submit" name="post" value="Save" onclick="return modify_save(\'300703dd0577aef837e1b568f9db600e\');" accesskey="s" /> <input type="submit" name="cancel" value="Cancel" onclick="return modify_cancel();" /></div>'; // And this is the replacement for the subject. var smf_template_subject_edit = '<input type="text" name="subject" value="%subject%" size="60" style="width: 99%;" maxlength="80" />'; // Restore the message to this after editing. var smf_template_body_normal = '%body%'; var smf_template_subject_normal = '<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/index.php/topic,157335.msg%msg_id%.html#msg%msg_id%">%subject%</a>'; var smf_template_top_subject = "Topic: %subject% (Read 807 times)" if (window.XMLHttpRequest) showModifyButtons(); // ]]></script> <table border="0" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="margin-bottom: 1ex;"> <tr> <td valign="top" align="right" class="nav"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/index.php/topic,157335.0/prev_next,prev.html#new">« previous</a> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/index.php/topic,157335.0/prev_next,next.html#new">next »</a></td> </tr> </table> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" style="margin-left: 1ex;"> <tr> <td> </td> </tr> </table> </form> <div class="tborder"><div class="titlebg2" style="padding: 4px;" align="right"> <form action="https://web.archive.org/web/20091122115201/http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/index.php" method="get" style="padding:0; margin: 0;"> <span class="smalltext">Jump to:</span> <select name="jumpto" id="jumpto" onchange="if (this.selectedIndex > 0 && this.options[this.selectedIndex].value) window.location.href = smf_scripturl + this.options[this.selectedIndex].value.substr(smf_scripturl.indexOf('?') == -1 || this.options[this.selectedIndex].value.substr(0, 1) != '?' ?
