This page is an archive of photos and info related to Pop Music Survey. Current posts relating to our friends over the years are also included. Pop Music Survey was founded by my father, Bobby Poe, Sr. For the next 28 years, this small, industry "tip sheet" ended up on the desks of the most influential executives in the Top 40 record and radio industries. I'm Bobby Poe, Jr., and I joined the compa
ny in 1979. Bonnie Smith-Rollison, who worked as Music Director at several radio stations in the Washington, D.C. area, joined the company in 1987, remaining with us until August of 1996. Throughout the 1980's and into the 1990's Pop Music Survey became known for putting on the most exciting, fun and legendary Top 40 music conventions there ever were. In June of 1996, The Poe Kat retired after our gala 25th Anniversary Convention, and I decided that it was a good time to go out on a high note and therefore discontinue publication of the weekly Pop Music Survey magazine as well. Currently, I rely upon a large staff of social media experts, as well as getting invaluable assistance from Cortana, you can call me AI, Siri, Alexa, Data and C3PO. Special thanks to Yoda for invaluable guidance. In the 21st Century, our mission is to Survey Pop Music! "And how are you today Mr. Wilson?" - a quote from my favorite film "Harvey", where Wilson (Jesse White) is looking up the definition of Pooka in the encyclopedia and at the end of the definition reads the quote here. Wilson shakes the encyclopedia and says, "Who in the encyclopedia wants to know"? - I would substitute the name of anyone who stumbles on this for "Mr. Another Easter Egg for you! And I just remembered that the quote and the film are all about a big white rabbit...Harvey is that you? In my defense, yes, Harvey is a big white rabbit but that doesn't mean he's the Easter bunny!
