Would that be 2/4 or 1/28, what's so hard about posting an actual date since this weekend is the first weekend in February?! Another reason it's unlikely to be 2/4/78 is because that's the exact show that Premiere is playing next weekend. How many times have Premiere and SXM played the exact same show on the same weekend? Has that ever happened? I wonder if they ever check with each other to make sure they don't play the same show as each other on the same weekend.

I'm going to guess SXM would play 1/28/78...however, it won't surprise me if they make a mid-week change like they sometimes do. As far as the last time the same year was aired by both PRN and SXM (not counting B shows) in the same weekend was the weekend of October 20th last fall, when SXM aired 10/17/70 and PRN aired 10/24/70.

But I'd be curious to know if there ever was a weekend where they aired the same exact show (and not just the same year a week apart).

But they haven't both played the exact same countdown at the same time since summer 2010 (after doing so four times in two months).

I posed my question over 4 hours before we all knew that February 4th, 1978 was Premiere's choice!

But they haven't both played the exact same countdown at the same time since summer 2010 (after doing so four times in two months). mkarns, I think the last show on that list should actually be 7/29/78 on the weekend of 7/31/10. To my knowledge, it was that show that was the last one to be aired simultaneously on both networks.

To my knowledge, it was that show that was the last one to be aired simultaneously on both networks. I rechecked and corrected it; that was one of two times (the other in fall 2009) when both Premiere and SXM played the same shows two weeks in a row. The fact that this hasn't happened in the two and a half years since suggests that someone at SXM is monitoring what Premiere does and trying to avoid duplicates; if they change this week's show as hinted above than it would further indicate that.

Maybe year change to 1974 in process, stay tuned. If this happens, then no doubt it would be 2/02/74. Yup, stay tuned.

I was on a plane today that had SXM and happened to listen to the '70s channel when they happened to mention the AT40 countdown this coming weekend. They're still saying 1978, as of today, Tuesday. So if they do change the year, they haven't decided to yet.

The good thing is they are playing 1/28/78.

I recorded it too--great show! My XM radio display also stuck on last song before countdown. XM and radio station web players and even itunes often seem to have problems displaying even the name of any block programming like AT40. Perhaps it's because each segment contains multiple songs... though why couldn't it just display "AT 40 - The 70s" with, perhaps, the date of the countdown?

It will list the date of the show and each individual song.

I wonder what SXM will select for next week's show? 1974 seems to be out considering the hint on the 70s board...
