The Loop

The Loop’s Glossary Of Terms

LOOP LOGO

We here at the Loop feel that we have a very extensive vocabulary when it comes to rock and roll.  Please allow us to give you a very thorough synopsis on how to talk the Loop talk by identifying our comprehensible terminology:

  • Looper – someone who has pledged their undying love to the Loop and has maybe been listening since our inception in 1977
  • Two-fer Tuesday – Two songs by the same artist, back to back, every Tuesday
  • Hump day Triple Play – not to be outdone by Two-fer Tuesday, this is three songs by one artist every hour on Wednesday
  • 97@9:30 – 97 minutes of non-stop Loop rock every weekday at 9:30am
  • 97@Noon – when the clock strikes 12pm, you get yet another 97 minutes of non-stop rock
  • 97@4:20 – what’s this? ANOTHER 97 minutes of non-stop rock?  LIKE WE WOULD STOP!
  • Nice Pair Weekend – it’s Two-fer Tuesday, weekend style!
  • Pyke’s Picks – Every weeknight at 9pm Pyke takes you through 3 songs with a common theme. Tomorrow’s pick is rock N’ roll feuds (no lack of material there)
  • Loop Rock History – Every weekday, Tim Virgin delivers you a daily dose of rock wisdom from years past. Tomorrow’s history lesson is on Geezer Butler’s wild night in California just last year
  • Loop Lost Classics – songs that make you say, “Hey, I remember this song! Turn it up!”
  • Loop Led 4-Play – 4 songs in a row from the mighty Led Zeppelin
  • Loopfest – our annual concert bash. Last year Def Leppard tore the roof off the joint in front of 20,000+ people.  April Rose and Mancow arrive by helicopter.  Plenty more fun coming in 2016
  • Appetite for the 80’s Weekend – We pump out all your 80’s music favorites all weekend long!
  • Pour Some 80’s On Me Weekend – (see Weekend, Appetite For The 80’s)
  • Mancow’s Mystery Movie – Cow plays a movie clip. If you know what clip the movie is from, call 312-591-ROCK or ROLL and give him the answer.  Get it right and win all sorts of swag
  • A.D.D News – Mancow gives you the news fast, hard, and in under one minute

Feel like you have our vernacular down pat?  Head out into the world and bestow your newly attained wisdom upon the masses!
