I do. Thanks to HD Radio.

I listen to KJOE or whatever it is called from St. Joe.. Seems to me the least commercials out of any station..

Niven's got fired/laid off when they were cutting costs.. He is a DJ for thexfights.com now..

Anybody know what happened to Murphy, why she left the morning show?

got tired of Johnny's jokes? That's why I stopped listening to the show.

If you think kqrc has too many commercials, listen to 610, 810 or 980 AM on the way home.

She had some personal/family issues. She went home to Chanute, KS for a while and then moved on to Denver, I think.

I keep waiting for Bingo and the Baby to do their show in 98.9....then I might listen...:)

Dingo and the Baby. Tard

This makes it even more accurate. That show was horrible 15 years ago. I thank the good lord for Sirius every day.

lol you guys complaining bout 98.9 would be crying if you moved elsewhere. 98.9 is by far the best rock station ive ever heard. luckily colorado just got a new rock station that happens to be a lot like 98.9. Same voice over guy and everything. I really miss 98.9

Shes in Colorado now doing radio over here :)

She did a stint at 97.3 when that station was doing rock.

I've lived without that piece of shit just fine for three years now, thank you.

You dont get out much, I've lived on both coast and several places in between and "The Rock" aint in the top ten.

Agreed. There are so many more stations that are better.

97.3 wasn't bad when it was doing rock now they have some awful religious format, it completely sucks that they changed.

Does the DJ threaten to put the devil in a headlock and throw him in to the "Great Soda Machine In The Sky"? :D

Any 'KRP reference is a good thing, in MY book. :)

I'd like to know why they changed to that awful format.

Yep, I remember when network comedy was actually funny.

Yeah, it was a strange move on Union Broadcasting's part. I think KQRC can be given a challenge when it comes to rock programming if it's done right.

They went from trying to compete with 98.9 to a station similar to mix 93 and now they're religious it's like they just gave up.

Whether you know it or not, you just posted a great metaphor for religion in general.

While I miss living in KC, I don't miss the radio stations there. Just not much selection as I remember. Q104 in the late 80s early 90s was awesome. Then they switched to country. Living in NE Ohio I have Cleveland, Akron, and Canton stations to choose from. MUCH more choices. Canton has a kick-ass rock station. Its 106.9 for those visiting the HOF next month.

KC radio stations beat the DFW radio stations. That is some real corporate crap.

When 98.9 first came out it was 1000x's better than anything else in KC, but as with most things, they aged and become weak.

When I moved to Omaha in 1991 they shortly came out with 93.3 and that was sooooo much better than anything KC had at the time. But even it fell apart.

Oh god I hated 93 K-rock. They were alright at first, but went downhill quickly. My dickhead supervisor at the time insisted we listen to that station...they had two of the biggest flaming homos on in the morning...and they were the worst ever as far as repeating songs, I remember hearing "Are you gonna go my way" by Lenny Kravitz 2-3 times a day. Every day.

Yeah, but KC radio at the time was 102 or 101, which was either really old music or just plain old music. It was sooo painful that it hurt. By the time I left KC I was so sick of Zep, AC/DC, ZZ top, etc that I still can't listen to them in the car. Luckily I never listen to most radio stations to catch the repeats, but I do seem to remember that song getting a lot of play time up there. Morning shows really have nothing to do with the music in the station, you are lucky to ever hear a song on morning radio, but Todd and Tyler (?) had the better show up there. What cracked me up is when the alternitive music hit they started playing stuff nobody had heard of.

Every now and then I could pick up the rock station from Lincoln, hearing Megadeth, on an FM station in the morning was wonderful, lol.

Todd n Tyler were better at the time, but they got old too. It got to the point where their show was just about what they and their little group of friends did the night before, it got quite annoying. My last straw with them was when the ****ing arrogant bastards threatened to leave Omaha if the we didn't vote to build the Qwest Center. I have no idea how they are still on the air, everyone I know can't stand them. I know at one time they even got their show on in Springfield, MO. I have no idea if they're still on there though.

My iPod's shuffle mode >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> radio

This.

If I'm correct, I remember a ZZ99 (99.7) playing all the rock before 98.9 came on the scene. I missed that station when KYYS became KY99.7.

So is this actually pronounced K Crock?

Actually KQRC used to BE ZZ99. Back in the day, 99.7 (pre KY) was KMBR... Elevator Music.

Malicious Intent on KJHK 90.7 was as good as radio got around here in the day.

At least 102.1 the edge (I call it the butterknife) plays a different mix on Sunday nights where they play different types of music. It's only for a couple of hours. I don't remember KC having the same thing although things might have changed since I moved.

Sirius Liquid Metal/Boneyard/Faction (except when Jason Ellis is on)/and the occasional Lithium pwns any local radio.

I was tired of them long before I left in 2000, but they were okay I just wanted some darn music in the morning. Of course I did forget that KC did have the guys doing the lost leave it to beavers, those were pretty funny when I was a teenager.

Find new bands on the internet.... join a forum of elitist pricks (they usually know what they are talking about).... and put down corporate radio.

What about stations run by SMALL corporations?
:harumph:

Is that a real question?

Honestly I like the harddrive best with lou brudis or whatever his name is. That is played all over the country though.

I'll say it...

I miss Randy Miller.
