So ... I have sent my Countdown and Rock Arena requests to rage since October with several emails and the months after since then, so they pay attention as I do every year.

They emailed me back twice but this was the latest one from one week and a half ago which was very good to get a response!

______________________________________________________________________________________

Hi Jason,


Just dropping you a line to let you know that we haven’t forgotten about your requests and hope to incorporate some of them into our schedules.



Enjoy the show!

Team Rage
______________________________________________________________________________________


And THESE below were all my requests. Yes, there are MANY but I like rage to have as many options on file as possible! ... I also included a few Countdown Revolutions because if they have to go outside of Countdown and Rock Arena, I prefer Revolution to Recovery!

Hasnt that last Countdown Rev been on already?

I'm a huge Siobhan Fahey fan and they have never played an episode with the interview with Shakespears Sister on rage.

Ok. Maybe they just played Poison as a stand alone as I'm sure I've seen it on rage in the last few years
