KQRS is “under construction”

 

https://radioinsight.com/headlines/297300/kqrs-goes-under-construction/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=jetpack_social&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0pkECT1dj44eU1uSk1zPEjhpYzMNMTYPceQWjC3e4svKluXvvaFE9jqLE_aem_iQ-IXqS0QJ6H5ivI1HhxAw

I hope they don't play "It's the end of the world as we know it" on loop as one station did back in the day when they changed format. I can't remember if it was WLOL or which one it was...

 

 

Pretty sure it was the Edge 93.7 that did that in the 90s.

 

KQ seemed to be playing Soul Asylum's "Somebody to Shove" on repeat this morning.  That is an odd choice if they are indeed copying what the Edge did.

 

(or is it an April Fools stunt?)

I thought it was WLOL 99.5 that did that when they flipped to classical or whatever they are.

It was when 93x was changed to The Edge in 1994

B1G refs... corrupt, or just incompetent?

Update on KQRS.  Still classic rock but moving into the 90s too.  New lineup of hosts too.

I still scratch my head at the idea of 1980's being considered "oldies".

To me the categories should be 

  • Oldies - 50's and 60's
  • Classic - mid/late 60's to early/mid 80's

Anything after that is just crap.

Like my dismay when my college age nephew was going on about Queen being “the oldies”! 
Definitely cool as Queen was having a resurgence with his age group, but still old.  Then he discovered I pretty much had every vinyl Queen album and wanted them.  Like an early inheritance 😆

 

Note: Due to inflation dirty deeds will no longer be done dirt cheap.

Yeah I don't think anyone refers to the 80's as "oldies" although my kids might. 🤣

I quit listening to KOOL 108 10+ years ago, when they started playing songs that were popular when I was in high school and college (80-86). At the time, they were still referring to themselves as an "oldies" station.

Decided… f it I’m home this weekend gonna pay $20’for the 2 Wild and Wolves games, all playoff implications. The Fan Duel app is garbage, even worse than I heard. How are professional teams allowing this to be one of their platforms. 💩

If it makes you feel any better the Fan Duel live restaurant in St. Louis is also underwhelming.

Now the app thinks cause I live in Hudson that I only get Bucks games and not the Wolves

I sent an email to the program director at Fox9 thanking them for carrying so many Gopher Hockey games this season. Figure it doesn't hurt to let them know we appreciated it. They thanked me for watching.
