Our classic rock stations play a lot of Beatles. It's usually the typical songs, but they surprise you every now and then. They also play My Sweet Lord a lot for some reason! The moden rock station KROQ (k-rock) won't play them, yet they occasionaly play older stuff like the Ramones, the Clash, the Stooges, even the Kinks but no Beatles. I guess they're too mainstream for that kind of station. I haven't noticed the Indie station play them either and I think they could definitely find obscure Beatles tracks that would fit in to their format. They just don't want to try!

Beatles can be heard on the radio here, although only their very famous songs such as Hey Jude, Yesterday, Let it be, Hard days night. I heard Hello Goodbye also. There was a Beatles weekend not a long ago when they played Lucy in the sky, Back in the USSR, Octopus' garden, etc
i know what you guys mean, i listen to a classic rock station but they rarely play the beatles everytime they play one i get so pumped. hehe but thats why i just use my ipod, or cd.
For my 20th birthday, I called my local "oldies" station that plays the beatles sometimes and asked them to play Hey Jude for me, an they said sure and made a little small talk with me, was suprised I was a beatles freak and only 20, and then like an hour and a half later they got to it. I was so mad. I have now discovered the local "rock n roll" station that plays the beatles twice as much!! I should have called them!!
Looking through the bent backed tulips to see how the other half lives.
I live in Sacramento, Ca. We finally got an oldies station ( we had a good one years back and then it disappeared). And I usually listen to it throughout the day and I am happy to say that they play alot of Beatles. And not just the same ones over and over but they really mix it up. From Please Please Me to Revolution, they even played Paperback Writer.
I don't know who here has satellite radio (siruis) but they have a 60's station that throws in alot of Beatle songs and also a station call Classic Vinyl that plays them alot too.
