Heck, I'd rather listen to CJAY if it weren't for Gerry Forbes and Nickelback.
It's funny, when X929 first started they had that no Nickelback guarantee, and at the time people loved it. Everyone was like "awesome, it's all really cool alternative music, they're playing all the stuff that isn't jock rock enough for Cjay, they've really nailed a missing link in Calgary radio".

Now a days though, I'd actually prefer nickelback to a lot of their pop and weak ass coffee shop indie songs.
