    Slightly O/T but... Your Opinion Wanted

    Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I wanted to get some ideas from the members of the forum. I currently have a internet radio station on Live365 and I'm thinking of launching a 'sister' station. I'm heavily leaning towards the second station being a disco station. I've been trying to think of an idea for a name for the station but so far have been drawing a bit of a blank - well... more that I've been coming up with typical disco-like names or cheesy ones, and was wondering if any of you had any suggestions for names for the station?

    I'll likely be playing music from around 1974-83 or so, featuring guest DJ mixes, special shows, etc. and playing the full 12 inch versions where available. I'll likely mix the well known material (eg. Chic, Village People etc) along with the more club related material (eg. TJM, Peter Jacques Band, etc.) Any suggestions on a name?

    Thanks for your input.

    Thanks Dr. Love & Stephen. Much appreciate the suggestions. One I came up with which was a take off of the old Danceteria club was Discoteria.

    Dizkowave?

    Channel54?

    Retro Club (instead of Groove)?

    Disco Loft?

    D'n'D Radio? (Disco & Dance)

    B&B (Beats and Boogie)?

    Hold on, I'm warming up, I'll be back.

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions. Some really great ones there. :icon_biggrin:

    If ever I were to start a station, no doubt I would call it:

    H.A.P.P.Y Radio

    Re: Slightly O/T but... Your Opinion Wanted

    Just a quick update, I decided to go with Discoteria after all. I've started work on the station which can be found at:www.live365.com/stations/cdnbob2
    Over the next few days I'll be doing some tests etc and hope to have the actual station in full working mode just before the new year.
