DC/Md/Va/WV/PA/DE people: Your turn!
Please request AWM on Mediabase for HAC and CHR under "New Releases" column http://bit.ly/aZxcrV (Replace last 4 digits w/ ur stations call letters) for whatever stations you can receive in your area.
Edited to add: Apparently if you add "-FM" to the call letters you get the list of songs they will actually play. I'm sad to see AWM is not on that list for DC stations. But keep at it anyway and write in Alright With Me at bottom of form if you need to.
I'm going to work on a larger list & contact info, but for now, here are some call letters. I realize some of these are longer shots than others, just want to give us a list to start with. Thanks!
DC
WRQX (HAC)
WIHT (CHR)
VA
WBQB (Fredericksburg)
WVHT (Norfolk)
WPTE (Norfolk)
WRVQ (Richmond)
WXLK (Roanoke)

Hey guys, I think it would be great if we got on board with an action that some other Kris Allen fans are working on. Even though I (obviously) already have a copy of Alright With Me, I'll be buying it again on its own this Friday along with everyone else. After all, it's only a dollar and some change. The bump in sales will be a showing of fan support in a way that Kris' label and management can understand.
#AlrightWithMe buying spree this Friday 11/5 supported by @ArtistSupporter.
RT Artistsupporter: Ok, how is Friday for everyone for an AWM buying spree @KrisAllen fans? One copy for each follower, & if you truly can't afford, will gift.
RT Artistsupporter: Hey @JiveMusic! We're having a groundswell here 4 @KrisAllen's Alright W Me. We're buying en masse 11/5. It'd be nice 4U 2 have a single but we'll buy off CD if we have 2!

One more homework assignment for the DC area - I have joined the listener clubs for Hot 99.5 and Mix 107.3 -ugh but I did just get this handy music survey from Mix 107.3
http://www.mix1073fm.com/goout.asp?u=http://radiofeedback.com/music...
Feel free to take it if you live in the DC area (it does ask for zip). You'll notice they want your opinion of the Truth and actually a bunch of songs they should have played this past summer and failed to add. Give TT a good rating, but also in a subsequent question where you can give written feedback, nicely tell them that you'd rather hear Kris' latest single Alright With Me.

I think it might be a good idea to forward the Kris video to various radio DJ twitters in your area - just a friendly - hey check out this video of Kris, might be good for your idol blog. Yes?
For DC - @tkradio (Toby Knapp at Hot 99.5) and yes, @JackDiamond at Mix 107.3. Maybe even the country station since Keith is mentioned so much? @WMZQ for that.
I would wait until tomorrow to send - looking at Toby's twitter, he's all distracted with the election.
Use this link so it goes to KAO, not You Tube: http://bit.ly/dg2a3S
Sound good? If in PA/Baltimore/Wilmington/ Other places, just sub in your favorite local DJ who gets into Idol.

Hello Purple team! I am Susie and I live in Boyds, Maryland which is a DC burb. Ok I feel like a loser for being so behind on here. Can I say how I am so impressed with you all for stepping up? Especially Dorothy and Rana - you guys rock.
I fall under dy77's area (MD/VA/DC) and have really followed her lead. I was consistently tweeting Tommy Mcfly mainly b/c he does the "New at Nine on Mix". They did play the heck out of LLWD and seemed to give TT a try. TT was on his page survey forever always winning so I don't know why the didn't play it, especially since they seem to have a love affair with Pat M. anyhow, Tommy was sick a couple weeks ago and not actually on air, so I took the opportunity to put a bug in his ear that it was time to update his survey b/c AWM was actually Kris' latest single, not TT. I would like to think I made an impact b/c he actually updated the page, but unfortunately didn't include AWM on his new survey. But again, I would like to think that he was listening. I did call one night and speak with him and I asked him to play AWM. He said basically he didn't know if he had it and those "New at Nine" songs are not his call. He is just the pretty face (HA). He said he can make suggestions and would. We chatted for a bit and he even put me on hold and came back to talk to me some more. I asked what was the best way for AWM to get some attention and he suggested contacting Carole Parker the PD via email. So I did that.
As far as Hot 99.5, I kind of feel like Toby is a great guy and really does like Kris. We spoke a little after the Hard Rock Idol Gives Back in DC and he really did seem to genuinely like Kris and his music. I follow Toby (@tkradio) on Twitter and he did follow back. Toby and I occasionally chat football, so Itook the opportunity to DM him the other day asking him to look into playing AWM. If I am correct, I think Toby is the assistant PD. So I figured what could it hurt. Didn't hear anything in response.
I also try to watch @replies to Mix 107.3 and Hot 99.5 to look for KA fans requesting AWM. Especially the ones who I don't seem to know. I try to get a follow and then DM them about Little Pawns and all the info here.
So that's what I've done. Not a ton, but I do feel like every little piece of info and every little effort helps. #babysteps

I have been tweeting to various PLJ and Z100 Twitters the link to Kris' hilarious video from yesterday. Also tweeted it Fresh 102.7, WBLI and WPST twitters. Anything to get the word out and this video really promotes Alright With Me really well too.
We should all keep requesting Alright With Me on that mediabase link for all our usual stations as well.
I also have been tweeting the hilarious video to all the blogs and entertainment shows I follow. I feel like it doesn't hurt. You never know.

Rana, Both WPLJ and WPST have on line request forms on their site. Have you used those? That's how I usually request. Just click the music link and scroll down.

The chitchat Susie's got going with Tommy and Toby is a great thing - we've gotten some good info out of them. If you are from DC area and haven't shot an email to Carol Parker yet, please do so.
Today I tweeted the KAO video to Toby since he does the Idol blog, and also to WMZQ. A little shy on Jack. :)

Two new things for the Purple Team:
1) Everybody - in the main radio promo folder is a suggestion to start requesting AWM from Open House Party. Please do this. Here's how to request..
Go to their site: http://bit.ly/aHbEF8 click Music Request at the top & fill out the quick form!
You can also contact them by twitter @OpenHouseParty & let them know u'd like to hear Kris' new single!!
2) For the mid-Atlantic people: DE, PA, NJ, MD, VA - anyone who could (conceivably) hear a DE station -
@BCU79 alerted us all to a challenge going on at WSTW out of Wilmington (I think). Apparently a bunch of new songs have been duking it out for text votes, including AWM. They spin the new songs in the evening and then you send in your text vote. AWM and/or Willow Smith's Whip My Hair (o_O) knocked off Bruno Mars last night and they are the two finalists in this thing. So tonight be ready to vote in this. You only get one vote. http://www.wstw.com/ & click on listen live link (or just watch twitter tonight around 9-10 pm).

One more way to request for Northern VA, western MD and upper WV:
WINC does an all-request show at Noon. Text your request to 95462. Of course that request should be for Alright With Me! They also have a form to fill out - I have been filling it out - it's linked in my first post in this folder. I think texting may be more effective - we shall see.
