Indie 103.1 in LA is GONE

this is worse that Richard Blade leaving KROQ in the 80's...

indie is the best station by far. I cant even stomache kroq. This really sucks

Go to sleep listening to coasttocoastam on 640

not cool. kroq sucks donkey dick. I've seen it.

So you have to deal with kRoq on the west coast too?

It sucks over here in New York area, but its the only game in town. Hearing Crazy Train by Ozzy should be a once every 5 years experience, not 3 times a fucking day.

They are the most musically narrow-minded bunch of assholes ever. Where's the Pixies? Where's the Liz Phair? How about some Metal other than Metallica? They have zero imagination.

They had a great format. Introduced a lot of new stuff that kicked ass. You didn't have to have a record company buy your air time. If you rocked, you rolled.

Satelite radio

and wake up with new and better conspiracy theories... I do believe but I don't think every idea is correct.

2012 yes.. only because I've been a believer since 1995 not because of the latest crap out on TV. Read the book, Fingerprints of the gods by Graham Hancock. It's a thick page turner that I had to read at least 5 times to understand and is a constant companion in my bathroom while I take my morning dump and prepare for my work day.

I believe there is a bit of truth in movies, novels, tv-shows ad infinitum as per acclimating society to upcoming changes or paradigm shifts to the way life in our way of lives are adhered to. The "New World Order" may or may not have been preparing us for Barack Obama by casting Morgan Freeman as GOD in the movie Bruce Almighty in 2003 as well as the United States of Americas President in the movie Deep Impact in 1998 but since I am not privy to such knowledge I can only conjecture that these happenstances as well as such things as Zues 'Tiny' Lester being President Lindberg in 1997's the Fifth Element have been part and parcel to circumstances that are beyond national control. The epic changes coming next week in the US of A next week do nothing to address the changes that are coming forward in the next few years if you were to take the litany of what is preached on CoastToCoast 640 AM to heart and allow yourself to run rampant with the ideas and fear that is preached by Art Bell and his Ilk.

NONE OF THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT THE BEST MUSIC STATION IN LOS ANGELES CALIFORNIA, VOTED BY ROLLING STONE MAGAZINE AS THE BEST RADIO STATION IN THE NATION OF 2008 HAS JUST GONE OFF THE RADIO RAVES BECAUSE THEY DON'T WANT TO SELL OUT AND NOW THERE IS NOT A DECENT REPLACEMENT FOR THEM.

There is no way that KROQ there is the same as KROQ here.... here it's pretty much Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sublime, etc....

Here is the best "Kroq music" of for the year...

I'd love to have a station in LA that plays Metallica, Liz Phair, all that... we don't even get to listen to that...

Indie 103.1 is just the latest of a long list of EPIC stations that have gone down the tubes due to being bought out by bigger "Communication" enterprises. KLOS, KNAC, etc...

Don't even let the playlist I listed above fool you, if it's good music, it was played on Indie 103.1 months before KROQ ever started playing it.

I remember KROQ in the 80's.. it was a good station, maybe even in the 90's but once it was bought out by the majors and sent all over the nation... CRAP.

Back in the 80's....

I used to listen to Rodney on the ROQ

The Poorman - who started loveline with Drew Pinsky

Wow, You are really making me flash BACK now.

Don't forget Jim Ladd on KMET

OH fuc yeah Jay... I totally forgot KMET.

Jay... but I don't forget your place at the Brewery.

I work there now, but when I started (3 years ago) I pulled in and remembered the kick ass place that first I met you. It was you, Chris, John S, Persian Kitty, Join4free, and it was about Sex.com...|

I'm glad to see your still around because you've always kicked ass in my book.

love your work,

Regards,

Just heard about it on the news, can't believe they're internet only.

I enjoy the music they play, but honestly... all that yap about 'indie' and 'revolution' and now 'The Man' is forcing them to 'play the corporate radio game' but they are resisting... I mean seriously, Indie 103 is clear channel. They are not Indie in any sense. The music is good, but all that BS astroturfing rhetoric always made their station hard for me to listen to,

C'mon... Pirate radio was the best on 103.1, at least in the LA area...

Hard to listen to regular radio anymore with satellite radio. Sirus FTW

they just went off the air to not conform to "the Man"

how much more "indie" do they have to be?

DG

Actually independent.

they just went off the air to not conform to "the Man"

how much more "indie" do they have to be?

DG

add pirate radio to the list of causalities

"Indie 103.1 in LA is GONE". HUH?! That leads me not to listen anymore to radio. Time to play my own playlist.

that works until your playlist is old and crusty....

I'm sure you will be happy listening to your playlist from now until YOU DIE!!!!

cursed with the same music over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over..... Just like as if you were listening to KROQ.....

LOL.... I'm going re-activate my satellite radio tomorrow...

DG

Indie Rock Radio Station? Is that?
