When WBMX 102.7 had the original Saturday Night Live Ain't No Jive Dance Party, it too was only 4 hours on Saturday nights. However, the show and the Hot Mix 5 were so popular, they added a 3 hour Friday Night Jams mix show which featured one of the Hot Mix 5 mixers. A weekday noon mini mix, a six p.m. mini mix and even a eight p.m. mini mix was added.
When that WBMX flipped to V103 and B96 stepped in to fill the void. It started with a 4 hour Saturday night mix show with 3 hours mixed by Julian Jumping Perez and the last hour mixed by Brian Middleton. As that grew popular, B96 added Bad Boy Bill. Frankie Hollywood Rodriguez and Mike Hitman Wilson to the roster abd expanded to Friday nights. They also expanded the mix shows to 5 a.m on both nights and added a 10pm mix weeknights.
The point is that B96 will be looking at how the audience responds to the mix show. If it proves popular, they will extend the hours. With the right results, maybe Friday nights get added.. Remember this is a different audience.
