KMCH (Manchester IA) is airing the Dick Clark show.
KXMG (Clinton IA) aired the 4/28/79 show but I wasn't sure if it was three or four hours.

4/28/79 was played when? 4, 5 years ago? So I don't think this made a difference. Many (yes, not all) didn't listen to SXM back then. Golly. Of the two people I know who have XM, both told me they weren't interested in the 1979 program this weekend because they heard it already or taped it from XM when it originally aired. There are likely lots and lots of Premiere listeners that don't even know about this 4-hour info and not know about this board. Heck, I didn't even know about the shows and the board until 3 years after the rebroadcasts started. These are the ones that I think will make a difference. For example, I live in Southern California where there are 15 million people or so. And yet, I think there are no more than 10 of us from SoCal on this board. I'm sure more than 10 people listen to AT40 on KOLA. I e-mail KOLA all the time regarding recommendations but 10 people, let alone, a few of us, are not going to make a difference. But it doesn't hurt to try and recruit other listeners. Actually, we are the ones who will make the difference because as you said, no one else knows about it. It is the vocal minority that usually makes a difference. 10 emails in a week to KOLA is probably 10 more emails than they usually receive about AT40. And why would the emails to KOLA be limited to only the people from this site who listen to KOLA? Every person on this site should be writing KOLA. Now they receive 30 or 40 emails in a week about AT40 instead of the usual zero. I think that will wake them up. See how that works? Bottom line is, the people on this site will determine the success of radio stations changing to the 4 hour schedule.

^Many listeners don't have or listen to SXM, so this shouldn't matter. Plus, they butcher the shows anyway. We need support from ALL listeners, not many listeners. Also, I don't believe XM always butchered their shows. I haven't checked yet to see if the April '79 program that XM aired some time ago was complete or butchered. I now have the XM show and it was left totally intact.

Has anyone found the Premiere cue sheet for the Dick Clark show, or the 4 hour '79 show? Thanks! KKLZ (Las Vegas) is playing the DC show now. Brian, I'm pretty sure I saw it over on the "70s show this week" thread. I've just looked at the latest three or four pages there -- nope.

Ok then, fine, you guys win. They should have waited until 5/5/79. But that was on SXM. And so was 5/19 and many others. And so was 4/14 and 4/21 beforehand. If one wanted to get all of the shows, they would have already done so by trades, etc. Whether I have listened/recorded the show or not, I still want to hear 4 hours. I'm not going to use the excuse that "Oh, I already heard it, so I will skip it and not e-mail the program directors"
Other than saying that many of us haven't heard it, a program director's perspective (not mine) is that the average listener is what counts, not the die hard fans like us and what specific show they play, especially from 4 or 5 years ago on another station. I don't think the Premiere heads care what was played on SXM or not. And they shouldn't. But yes, I get your point. As always, you can have the last word. I really didn't want to make a big deal of this.

That's why I don't post much here anymore as much as I used to. I don't think our conversation has a win or lose element to it. All of us have the same goal in mind and that is for stations to air a complete program. So it is good to discuss what we can do to make that happen. We only lose if stations continue to edit the program. But I do understand your points as well because there is only so much we can do. But I would rather lose knowing we did all we could do than to lose and wonder if we could have made a difference.

If anyone recorded the 4/28/79 show today, did they mention anything about this being the first show with 4 hours or not? Also, how did they begin the show if only the last 3 hours were being broadcast, in other words, did they mention anything about it starting at #32, or wherever it started?

No they did not mention anything about it being the first 4 hour show in part because the previous 1979 show was actually the first such show. The second hour intro was just like the second hour intros for 80s show because they are acting like it is a 4 hour show.

I'm sorry Mike. I only looked at the thread referring to the 1979 show vs the dick clark 1972 show. Thank you jdelachjr2002 for putting the list together of shows carrying the 03/25/72 Dick Clark Show. It made it very easy to find a station very quickly. And thank you Mike for pasting it on the new thread. I actually wished Dick Clark would have subbed more, but as we all know he was very busy.

I have discovered the error made by the station KMCQ , airing twice the 1st hour.
The station has the 1st hour from the international version and also from the national version.
The 1st intro of the 1st hour presentation belongs to the international edit, without the sponsoring, and then the second time part 1st hour sounded, the intro of the show had the sponsor sounding, and that is the national edit.
So they download the whole show from the national and 1st hour from international.

Wow what a weekend of running from station to station to try and get these 70's shows. I think I'll give up on the 79 show until next saturday when WMGN runs the repeat.

It's 6:20 p.m. now and WORC (Worcester, MA) is still doing its regular format. I only hope they run the full four-hour show starting at 7:00!
