Eclipse Posted January 6, 2006 Report Posted January 6, 2006 Well, for the people who live in the TriState Area and stuff..uhhh...I JUST REALIZED that 92.3 KRock has COMPLETELY stopped playing music, and is a talk show during the week, and then plays music on the weekends. WHY? What happened? Did Howard's leaving KILL the station?
Masked Man of Mystery Posted January 6, 2006 Report Posted January 6, 2006 I don't know the whole story, but I remember turning on Howard Stern one day and he had found out that they were switching formats and....yeah, apparently Infinity decided to kill a bunch of rock stations and make them either Jack stations or talk stations
kkktookmybabyaway Posted January 6, 2006 Report Posted January 6, 2006 A couple years ago, some hippie urban station switched to a RIGHT-WING RADIO format, which was great. Rush left the station he was on (KDKA) and went there, which meant no more having his show cut off when the Shittsburgh Pirates had an afternoon game during the summer months.
Eclipse Posted January 6, 2006 Author Report Posted January 6, 2006 It's not like it's the end of the world for me, but I used to listen to the station. I heard they only play music on the weekends now. Sucks for the rock genre, because now there isn't a station that will play mainstream rock music like they did. There are some colleges in NJ that have their own rock stations, but they play underground stuff, like Seton Hall Pirate Radio does.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted January 6, 2006 Report Posted January 6, 2006 (edited) Wait...people listen to Pirates' games? You gotta admit it's better than actually watching them. It was funny back in the summer of '04 because Rush had Arlen Specter (PA Senator) on his show to answer questions about some pseudo-scandal that was going on at the time (I can't remember what it was), and of course the segment took place during a Pirates game, so nobody from the Shittsburgh area got to hear it. The next day local callers complained that they didn't hear the segment because the Pirates were getting crushed 10-0 or something like that by the Brewers.
