Kilroy the Ninja Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 (edited) Clear Channel changed the format of my favorite radio station here today. It was a rock station, now it's latino. I'm latino, and I want my rock back. Now, I must fix my cd player as there is no other real rock station in Houston. But I have no money to fix the player. I am sad. I've tried listening to the Catholic AM station, but it doesn't come in well enough to actually hear it. I am sad. I offer up my sadness and suffering for the poor souls in purgatory. But I am still sad. ****sigh**** Edited November 13, 2004 by Kilroy the Ninja
musturde Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 "rock klol"? My friend said his moms saw on the news that it was just changed to a diff station. (I'm from h-town also)
Tony Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 Clear channel is horrible.. they make all their gazillion stations sound like the next one they own... I cant stand any of their "Kiss FM"s
Tony Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 I got quite a few choices.. non profit/college type radio stations, shortwave, music choice on digitial cable, internet webcasts
inDEED Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 I miss stayin' the night @ Kilroy's casa... How you, the husband, and the little one doin Kilroy?
Kilroy the Ninja Posted November 13, 2004 Author Posted November 13, 2004 everybody here is cool... the little guy is talking a bit now... which is neat and sometimes annoying at the same time. "MAMA" is his answer to everything. Quite a responsibility! I can't afford satellite radio. And yes, it was KLOL.
voiciblanche Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 Argh, Clear Channel. They changed our only rock station to "Sunny 97.1" with hits from the seventies not too long ago... Well, maybe they'll change another station sometime soon, and you'll like that one. Who knows, with them changing their stations all the time.
Kilroy the Ninja Posted November 13, 2004 Author Posted November 13, 2004 yeah I thought about that, but I don't know that I can listen to anything Clear Channel without supporting them somehow...
Tony Posted November 13, 2004 Posted November 13, 2004 I am still angry at clear channel when they took away a conemporary Christian station I used to listen to and changed it to Kiss FM this was like 5 years ago too There was no announcement thatthis would happen either. One moment its WZLE, next moment everyone is fired and the format flip. I remember reading an atricle of someone turning on their radio monday morning, kids in the van, expecting to hear the wholesome sounds of WZLE, but got Prince instead.
BLAZEr Posted November 14, 2004 Posted November 14, 2004 I hear you Kilroy. I go to Houston three or four times a week and on Friday I was driving in and switched it to 101 . . . and all of a sudden it was a 50 Cent song with some like cumbia beat . . . way wierd. I was sad . . . so I went to 96.5 . . . but that's not really a solution . . . it's just not the same . . . I miss my 101!
foundsheep Posted November 14, 2004 Posted November 14, 2004 I say you bust out your accordian, boots and side burns and come back home.
Kilroy the Ninja Posted November 14, 2004 Author Posted November 14, 2004 My mom's got the accordian, and I don't think I'd be very attractive with sideburns. *sigh*
LiL Kat Said Posted November 14, 2004 Posted November 14, 2004 I know! i was shocked when i turned on the radio! *sigh* oh well.... Have you ever listened to 89.3 KSBJ? it's a good chritian station
Kilroy the Ninja Posted November 15, 2004 Author Posted November 15, 2004 With the exceptions of the Phatmass cd and classical music, I don't mix my music with my faith. It just seems weird to me. Always has, probably always will. I don't want to have to think or cry when I listen to music. I avoid Christian music stations like the plague.
Mary's Knight, La Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 i have to ask what's the catholic AM station by you kilroy?
Kilroy the Ninja Posted November 15, 2004 Author Posted November 15, 2004 1540 AM It just started this year and I'm afraid their signal isn't very strong. But, Father Barker - one of my parish priests - has a show that airs on there. It's also EWTN driven. I've found it interesting when I can get the signal. But no "Christian music" on there. Which is fine by me.
Tony Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 (edited) get a load of their new website.. , they claim they play 10,101 songs in a row. this HAS to be false advertising. All Clear Channel does is play the same things over and over again and run huge blocks of commercials klol.com Edited November 15, 2004 by Tony
Tony Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 say with call letters like "KLOL" they aught to turn the radio station into a comedy station
Kilroy the Ninja Posted November 16, 2004 Author Posted November 16, 2004 They are having KLOL Wake parties here. There's supposedly a petition to bring it back.... sniff...
