Well, that's a preset on my car radio that needs to be changed. Of course, the only other stations on the FM dial I ever listen to are 93.7, 106.9, 107.5 and occasionally 94.5. So there's really no reason to change it when I have 12 FM settings available.

It's getting to be pretty slim pickings out there. And as my wife would surely attest, harder to find a station playing music when others are talking or in a commercial break.

And if you think Walton and Johnson are crapmeisters, you obviously never heard Lamont and Tonelli on Bay Area radio.

Dear God, this is sad. I've been listening to KLOL for 25 years. It stopped being my primary radio station when it got bought out by Clear Channel, but the KLOL has always been the Rock station in Houston.

I remember having KLOL on my walkman when I was running one day in 1990, and Dana Steele came on to tell Houstonians that SRV had been killed.

I tried to E-Mail the gawds to try and start a petition against the CC bastards to get OUR station back!!!!!!!! ROCK 101 RULED!? PETITION....PETITION!!!!! been a loyal listner for 34 years...those CC bastards....

KLOL's morning program was sexist, homophobic, Republican, and just crap. I wish I was sad about them changing formats and how they were treated, but why should their workplace be any better than anyone else laboring in Houston?

Republican Rock? How wrong is that?

Clear Channel is crap, too. I cannot bear radio in Houston anymore. Even KHOU has some low rent jock spinning classical now. Sad, very sad.

No one up here (Pocatello, Idaho) believes me when I tell them that the radio up here is better than it is down in Houston. That's just pathetic.

I may just have to give it all up and become a hardcore rap fanatic...

Is this the end? Is life as a rock radio listener not worth living any more...?

:: cries ::

Wow, just read about this on Burnt Orange. I grew up on KLOL even when I didn't listen to it (my mom did). I remember Jolly and Jay from the 70's and the reports of the "Big Bird" in Conroe! Scary!

Well I am down in Corpus now and there is nothing to choose from here. I recommend satellite radio, its worth the 10 bucks a month if you get a portable or semi portable jobby like the Roadys.

uncastrated classic rock on KPFT (90.1 fm).
monday afternoons.

the best rock music you've never heard
random intervals on KTRU (91.7fm)

Now I have nothing to listen to in my truck. I'm 26, Born and raised in Houston, and I'm hispanic. Rock is my music. Thanks for nothng CC. I don't no what to listen to in the mornings either...Walton & Johnson rule.

So what happens to all of the other dj's like Wendy or Outlaw Dave. I cannot believe that they would take away such an awesome rock station and an institution that is a part of Houstons history.

That's just not right! Have you people gone insane? Walton & Johnson are a Houston staple, and where are we suppose to hear Metalica? It is my hope that W & J will be back on the air and reguardless of where that is, your listeners will be sure to follow.

THATS IT!!! I HAVE HAD IT WITH HOUSTON RADIO. SOMEONE NEEDS TO SAVE HOUSTONS AIRWAVES!!! WE AS CITIZENS OF THIS CITY NEED TO PUT TOGETHER A RALLY, CONCERT / FUNDRAISER TO START A NEW ROCK STATION, AND BRING BACK OUTLAW DAVE... WALTON AND JOHNSON , AND THE REST OF THE KLOL STAFF. HOW COULD CC DO THIS?? FLIP THROUGH THE DIAL AND COUNT HOW MANY LATINO STATIONS WE HAVE. THIS IS REDICULOUS. WE ALL NEED TO WORK TOGETHER AND GET SOMETHING GOING!!!

i want to fight!! i want our rock station back!! who will play the ozz man? or ac/dc all the good stuff. this is america! i know we have a lot of hispanic but does that meen we have no stations for all of us other english speaking nation!!!!!!
clear channel you suck! i think your upper managment are discriminating against us.
REMEMBER THE ALAMO BITCH!!!!

Wow! I moved to Georgia from Houston back in March. I was shocked when a friend from Houston told me last night that KLOL was gone. How sad is that? KLOL was the soundtrack of my life for 15 years. I was intoduced to so much music by KLOL, including Rush, SRV and much more. It feels like an old friend has died. I guess the 5 Spanish FM stations werent enough for Houston. I have a feeling KKRW will change its format to play more Ozzy and Metallica now. That seems to be the trend now...1 Rock station that will give you everything from the Stones to Nickelback. It is definitely the end of a great era!

how many people actually listen to that Latino crap anyway? They try to hard to please the minorities instead of the majority. I was driving in the morning and I thought my radio had broken or something and couldnt figure it out until I saw the newspaper, and it pissed me off.

Walton and Johnson were just a couple of talking heads, so I'm not that sorry to have THEM go, but they're leaving us with totally slim pickings around here (drive time morning radio has been horrendous around here since KLOL canned Blake and Charley, but that's a different debate) I never cared for the second-hand humor and wish they'd just run the music and talk less.

We've long needed another good rock station that played deep cuts and real rock (attn KKRW: American Pie-and indeed ANYTHING Don McLean ever did-is NOT rock!!)

When I heard about this yesterday I was shocked, and thought "I wonder if XM radio paid CC to do this?" then I found out that CC owns a large interest in XM Radio--could it be that the demographics of the rock audience is more likely to run out and buy a satellite radio setup? I feel so used and manipulated!! I guess I'm going to have to take a serious look at both XM and Serius now

Thank You Shelley, W&J are a Houston staple. KLOL off the air? And for what...some minority latino bullsh*t? What is this? Its sad, really sad.

KLOL, the only real rock station in Houston, well it is really cold here in Hell. The only thing, and I mean ONLY thing Mexican music is good for is videos, without being able to see the women, it is completly useless. The ICON has been with us through all of the hard times: the death of SRV, the second by second updates of the World Trade Centers coming down, Metallica's fire incident, the holiday blood drives, supporting benefits for fallen firefighters, injured children, fallen motorcyclists, and fallen police officers. Thanks to CC, [ the evil empire], all of that is history and we are on our own. Ineed my Outlaw Dave fix, Ineed my Wendy Miller fix, I need my 4:20 break. I say let's flood their e-mail with complaints, hard and heavy, so many that we shut down their server. Come on Houston, I know we have it in us, they want war, we can give them war.

I can't even begin to understand it. Going around Houston literally hearing random conversations about Tejano music instead of Black Sabbath's "War Pigs" on 101 makes you realize how important of a staple this frequency has become to Houston. Bring it back!!!! Damn Clear Channel

God, please smite Clear Channel - they already suck, so your smite on them should be pleasurable.

i cant believe klol is gone its all i have listened to literally all my life, radio is dead and so is rock n roll. with so many hispanic channels on the radio i dont know why they couldnt leave one rock station. i will miss hearing metallica, ozzy, kiss, guns n roses, the best groups ever. this sucks!!!!!!!!!!! i hate clear channel.

Let it be known that even the hispanics in houston are sayin', "What the F**k?!" I was born and raised in H-town and grew up on 101. Everybody I know: white, black, hispanic, long-hair, shaved head...EVERYBODY'S pissed about this! My brothers and sisters, we CANNOT let this go unchallenged. We have GOT to make a statement to people who think they can take "Mandatory Metallica", the Queen of the Midday world and Outlaw Dave away from us. They do not know who they're f**kin' with.

"Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

i am a Hispanic but i enjoy the rock 101 station it is true there are lots of of other spanish station the only thing left to listen to is 93.7 94.5
what can we do to fight this injustic is there a email we could write to complane
im going to miss the station

Email cc and let them know how you feel.s and p got old w and j I never did quite get into them.But there music rocked .I met Wendy Miller and she is a hottie plus she from my hood .cc is nothing but corporate greed

It is a terrible day in Houston radio. 101 is gone. What a tragedy, as many of us grew up listening to KLOL. My heart is heavy today as we continue to see Houston radio narrowed for caucausian listeners. No offense to the latino rockers out there who will no doubt miss KLOL too, however, there is little doubt this is a station that had as the majority of its listeners
white males. I am sickened by this change as I have been listening since about 1975. Although it hasnt been my main station in the last couple years, I listened at some time during the day, every day. Everyone needs to contact Clear Channel and express our outrage. If they do not respond a boycott should be considered for as a dedicated rock fan, there are not many options left for me in the city of Houston. It is time to step up fellow rock fans and try to stop this lunacy.

If you got to www.clear channel.com, scroll to the bottom of the page and follow the contacts link, click on the Our Executives link and it will take you to a page with the names of the top execs.or you can just cut and paste these names and flood them wih e-mails.

I just moved here a year ago from Victoria and I think ALL HOUSTON ROCK RADIO SUCKS-HAS FOR YEARS. Walton and johnson were racist neo-conservative pricks deserving of thier fate. I mean come on, all those stereotyped characters from 2 people. I think they (and thier kind)were mocked by SNL last year. Now were all "LIVIN LA VIDA LOCA!!!" from-Young Hispanic male-

What can I say? This is something that Clear Channel is notorious for. KLOL used to kick major ass back in the 80's and early 90's. How many of you remember when Linda Silk was the only DJ that would play Metallica, Maiden, or Priest on Saturday nights. Before there was Outlaw Dave there was Grego, the head outlaw that started Outlaw Radio in the first place. Radio was actually fun to listen to from 7 to midnight every day. Then years later CC bought them out and the station went to total crap. KLOL would only play the same three songs from the same handful of bands and that was it. This is just the final nail in the coffin that was to be the death of KLOL. I would recommend spending the time to fight Clear Channel to change back but is it really worth it? We'll all be better off if another company would invest in the Houston rock market. Whether we're stuck with satellite radio or listening to CDs, life will go on. Sad as it is, it will be without KLOL but we're all better off without Clear Channel. But for all those that would like to fight back, e-mail this guy at Clear Channel: omarvthompson@clearchannel.com and tell him what you think.

KLOL sucked most of the time, heck, a true 10-percenter would change the dial right after hearing "Eat It, everyday".

Except, what about Loch Siebehausen? Man, that guys needs a job. Please someone hire him, he's a great guy and we dont need him roaming the streets, so please help Loch.

I didnt care for the music much, I prefer 91.7 Rice radio, those college kids help keep me feeling younger with the interesting mix, but best of all, no commercials. KPFT 90.1 has some good music shows, and some of those wacked-out lefties are entertaining in very small doses, but they actually do do commercials in their own way.

Walton & Johnson are none of the aforementioned, neither sexist, homophobic, nor republican. Any true fan would tell you that. They are no more sexist or homophobic as any letter writer or reader on this site. And they are definetely not republicans, that's laughable. Just two very good decent people, pseudo-celebrities, who are very talented and informative. Ok, Steve has maybe a little more natural talent, but both are pretty quick on their feet. If they were to go away, I would be a little sad, but we did have some good times together.

Dean & Rog are ok, but again I can't deal with the music. Like KLOL, I've heard most of those songs a million times. I'll never get satellite radio, if you have a cd player and/or cassette, why do you need it? I like my choice of music the best, not some playlist some other goober picked out.

It does suck. I understand the history of KLOL, and I know and like all the people who have had a part with it, and sakes alive we got way more than plenty Mexican music stations. Fer crying out loud, what the hell are them management folks thinking? What a bunch of prime a-holes. They just pissed on thousands of fans. Ha-ha, see 'ya! Screw you "Mr. Doesn't speak Spanish". Up yours "Ms. No Habla".

Gone is a tradition, in the wind like yesterdays toenails.

I know KLOL had a huge audience, so why? It's shocking, aggravating, irritating, and disturbing.

I guess in the end, the "LOL" did stand for "lots of laughs", because you just have to laugh at the supreme idiocy of the jake-legs who made that decision.

And Chris Baker is not funny.

THIS SUCKS!!! WALTON & JOHNSON RULE!!! AND ENOUGH WITH YOU LIBERAL PANSIES WHO DID NOT LIKE THEM, I'M SORRY THEY DONT AGREE WITH YOU, BUT DOES THAT MEAN THEY SHOULD BE DONE AWAY WITH?? NO, BRING THEM BACK!!

Mandatory metallica, out to lunch show, the 420 break, walton and johnson, wendy miller, outlaw dave, locke stebenhousen, uncle nasty, the pitt, 40 min rock block, the rock and roll up your sleeve blood drives, and countless other local event promotions, ALL GONE!!! Just like that???!!!!

I am still in a total state of shock.. It's not like there are countless other latino stations out there to satatisfy the pallet of even the most discriminating listener, why do we need a latino top 40? I am hispanic, and like most other hispanic out there who grew up in houston I listened to KLOL. We did fine though out the years before Clear Channel would be doing better without them. I don’t appreciate them trying to accommodate us force feeding crap down our throats. KLOL is a monument, it is part of Houston. Just because it is not an actual building or structure does not make it any less important. CC needs to understand their actions are just as damaging as if they tore down a famous historical landmark like the astrodome. I feel like I have been slapped in the face. I am tired of pencil pushers This is corporate america playing big brother by telling us they know what is best. This cannot be the end of KLOL, I refuse to believe it.

If anybody has any plans of opposing CC's reign and trying to bring back what is rightfully ours, I am interested in helping the cause.

Sorry, I cannot just eat this one Mr. Walton.

What the Hell??????????????????????????????? We are ENGLISH speaking and want to hear ROCK N ROLL - not no MEXICAN CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the H***??????????????????????????????? We are ENGLISH speaking and want to hear ROCK N ROLL - not no MEXICAN CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I cannot not believe those f***ing coporate bastards took away an institution of a radio station. Its bad enough that we hardly have any rock to listen to at all, and now to replace a rock station with a 6th mexican station??? How many stations you damn mexicans need? Everyone on here wants to take out there aggression and write e-mails to the corporate pigs at CC, but I have a better idea. The best way to hurt CC is to invest your money in satellite radio, and since CC has a stake in XM radio already I HIGHLY suggest to invest money in Sirius, I have had it for 3 months and have NOT listened to the radio at all!!!!! DEFINATELY WORTH IT!!!!!!!! So to truly stick it to CC, just go out and buy Sirius!!!

Were are having a hard enough time trying to
fight illegal immigration, This is Texas which still is part of the United States THIS IS NOT
MEXICO. Maybe Clear Channel needs remember this.

This is bullshit. I was listening to KLOL yesterday morning while running errands and I thought it was strange they were playing "I'm Free." I had to run into a store really quick, so I didn't hear the end of the song. When I got back and turned the car on, I thought something was wrong with my radio. Then, I later learned "I'm Free" was the first song our KLOL played and the last. I couldn't help but cry. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS TO THE DJ'S. IF ANY OF YOU GUYS FROM 101 READ THIS, WE LOVE YOU GUYS AND MISS YOU. WENDY, YOU'RE THE BEST. THANK YOU AND TAKE CARE.

Walton And Johnson keep your chin up.

Big Mistake, Clear Channel.

WTF!!!! May Alah bring down those evil CC fucks... What in the hell were these bastards thinking? I mean shit, I'm hispanic... I DON'T KNOW SPANISH ASSHOLES!!! PUT SOME ENGLISH MUSIC ON! FUCKS!!!!!

WWJD...

I have started up a petition to bring back rock101.. I am not sure what good it will do but atleast it will bring about some organization...

So go and sign it at www.rock101.info

it is a shame that a city the size of houston cannot support a rock radio station anymore. klol was a institution around houston. they just needed to adjust the format a little and drop the stupid morning show potty humour.bring back z-rock!!!!that was better! i will not listen to any clear channel stations anymore!

Well, it looks like it is time for me to buy satellite radio. Long live the music and not the commercials.....

What a load of CRAP!! No Rock 101? No Walton & Johnson?....Latino rap. Give me a break!! Did someone take everyone hostage at CC's corporate headquarters? It's the only possible explanation. Whatever the ransom demand is, I'll be happy to pitch in and write a check. CC must have stock in XM satelite, which I will have installed next week!.

This is definitely a bunch of bullshit. I grew up listening to KLOL. How could they just suddenly take it off the air? I'm with everyone else on here about flooding their e-mails. We need KLOL back.

I don't live in Houston or Texas, but my friend Dave does. He is so pissed off that some Hispanic station came into Houston and fucked his favorite station over.

He says that he knows what happened. He did a little research and Mega101 is some big radio station from Miami. They came into Houston and bought out Rock101 and screwed Texas over in the same instant.

My suggestion: start a mass riot and kill Mega101 for playing 10101 Latino songs in a row.

Complain to CC! Ues e-mail regular mail voice mail, hell even air mail, but COMPLAIN.
Demand a list of their advetisers and DO NOT SUPPORT THEM, even if it means sacrificing that new car you want.
Remember, they are more likely to listen if you dont call them stupid fucks (even though they are) or other names.
Keep the faith we can get OUR station back!

This sucks. I really don't like Walton and Johnson, but I like Rock and Roll. There is just some stuff they play that you don't here on The Buzz (which is a CC station as well) or The Arrow (also CC).

While KLOL isn't my "main station" any longer, I stil listened to them at least once day. There is certainly an opening for an all-rock station to take KLOL's place.

www.batman-on-film.com

GAH!!!! Enough.....bring back Rock 101. We can't give up so easily. I think we should boycott protest.....dare I say it Riot. This isn't fair. Not every hispanic wants to listen to spanish top 40. I'm hispanic. I love rock and roll. And I listened to Rock 101. 93.7 and 107.5. I don't really like the buzz. But I loved Rock 101. Mandatory metallica people. Rush, Ac/dc, Zeppelin, sabbath, nirvana, stevie ray vauhgn, megadeth, hendrix, floyd. This is a nighmare, I hope it is. Tomorrow is Mondayy, since this is a nightmare I hope to wake up, get ready for school and on my way there, hear Walton & Johnson.

Damn!!!! I moved back from Dallas 3 months ago and was soo happy to have my Rock 101 back, because Dallas radio sucks. I loved the whole station, but especially Outlaw Dave and the 420 show. I have to have my my daily fix of it and I am dying. Can't this be a bad dream and I wake up tom. and they will be on right?? Didn't they have enough lationo stations already??

Just think if Clear Channel bought out NASA
wich is another one of Houstons decades old institutions, they could probably sellout again to a latino radio station and replace NASA's rocket logo with a big taco because what we really care about is money, and we dont really care about preserving our heritage. just Remember everybody there is a certain Chevy Dealership that rhymes with LAND SHARK that to advertise with sellouts.

correction, likes to advertise with sellouts

WTF...I cannot believe the crap mess clear channel has stirred-up again! Walton & Johnson has been off the airwave since Friday and we the people demand explanations. What are this cooporate bastards looking for? Were they afraid of how liberal and expressive these DJ'S (RADIO PERSONALITIES) really are! We as citizens have the right to pick and choose what radio stations we want to listen to and if we propgrammed KLOL in our cars it's for the reason that we liked what we heard! I'm latino but don't like that crappy bullshit music that's taken it's place. Therefore, I would like and demand answers and plaination as to why KLOL was taken off the air. IT should be want the people want not what those Idiots corporate bastards think "will work"!

Maybe Clear Channel could team up with the U.N.
and France and really do some damage and sell them some more
radio stations, and erase some more of our instutions, since their on a roll, I mean why stop here?

What kind of moron gets rid of one of the first FM stations of Houston!?

My heart is broken over this....I am a native Houstonian, and have been listening to KLOL since I could turn on a radio. A Houston landmark has been destroyed. I hate Clear Channel Communications with all of my soul.

I've only been living in Houston for 3 years but I have come to love KLOL so much. No other station has captivated me so much and they literally felt like family. I was lucky enough to meet Outlaw Dave and Loch at a promotion and those guys are great and not worthy of this travesty.Please come back KLOL!

My friends and I are in total shock that our favorite station is now gone. I will turn the radio off in the mornings before I listen to the other morning shows that truly can not compare to Walton and Johnson. I think we should boycott Clearchannel and try not to listen to any of there stations.

Clear Channel's management is obviously made up of morons! How can they ignore the THOUSANDS of KLOL fans who need to hear pure rock music every day? And what's happened to the DJs and personalities we all came to know & love? It just makes me sick - the best way to hurt CC is to boycott their advertisers. Money is the only language they understand - certainly it's not loyalty!

I was shocked Friday. I, like so many others here, grew up on 101. And like so many others have become a loyal 10 %er over the last 3 years. Clear channel, are you f**k-n kid'n me! Even if you don't like Walton and Johnson, what about all the rock from the last 30 years? Was there no frequency to use? You had to take one of the oldest radio institutions in H-town in flush it. Thanks for nothing. Way to make us all hate corporate radio even more. You are all the reason XM and ipods are taking over. I hope you are all happy with what you are doing to radio. Ya'll will stangle all the life out of what radio once held. Thanks ASSHOLE's!

I couldn't believe it when I turned on my radio fri afternoon and heard a spanish commercial on Rock 101. I wish it had been! This is a nightmare!!!! So many good memories....Stevens and Pruet Holliday Ball, the walking Juke Box, The Steel face with the Lightning Bolt. This is like Deja Vu 93Q. I'll never forget the morning I switched on the Q Zoo and instead of John Lanern it was country....that was a nightmare and so is this!!!!!

if you are missing your Walton and Johnson, might I suggest switching to 650AM - Howard Stern - where W&J got all their material

I suggest calling the Pat Gray morning show on 950am (clear channel station) and discussing your issues. I'm sure the executives will be listening.

Then, call the Chris Baker show (2:00pm - 6:00pm) on 740am (clear channel station) and discussing your issues.

They may not let you in, but if enough people call in to complain, you can tie up the lines for any other topic they wish to talk about.

Just so you know, Hispanics are the majority in Houston, not the minority.

I believe this is a marketing ploy similar to Coke. Soon, we will have "Classic" Rock101 and everyone will want to listen to it...

if you are missing your Walton and Johnson, might I suggest switching to 650AM - Howard Stern - where W&J got all their material

You so have it backwards son.

I had an 80 mile commute (one way) into Houston every day for two years when W&J started on 101. They saved my mornings from the garbage spewed by Dan and Reg (missp on purpose) along with their endless stream of commercials and that pop crap on the other stations. Now we only get Sweet Home Alabama on 93.7 six times a day, bubble gum on 107.5, and 106.9: all REO Speedwagon all the time! Good thing Baker is still on the air. S&P were good in their day. There is simply no good radio in Houston.

Here is the petition.
I hope every one will sign it! Found it on another site.
http://www.petitiononline.com/KLOL/

I can't believe this either it's a travesty 101 not in Houston give me a break. I'm Hispanic and I won't listen to this ridiculous format whatever it is, give us 101 back. Houston needs a rock station like we had,what are we supposed to listen to now?

no rock stations in houston

we need to start a riot at the mega101 offices
with guns and roses blairing. pelt them with
tortillas. and we are trying to discourage immigration??? what a fucking joke.

no rock stations in houston

no rock stations in houston

what a disapointment, a disgrace. how dare they. surely public opinion does not matter to CC.

WHAT HAPPENED? Are you all nuts..I can't make the day without my morning guys W & J. BRING THEM BACK!!!!!!!!!! Not fair. We have enough stations that play Tejano music...I don't need to hear another..We want our REAL 101 back!!!!!!!!NOW !!!

Ok folks..W&J did suck...they were no where near being Radio Gods as Stevens & Pruett with Boner. Let's no forget about Tubby who is on 97.1 now. This does suck, I have listened to KLOL for 30 years now...I grew with it like most Houstonians, it was passed on from brother to sister and on down the family chain. In my opion KLOL had the best lineup at one time..S&P with Boner, Wendy, OD then Fixx. LOng live KLOL

This is what happens when somebody senior at Clear Channel goes down on Colin's kid. Of ocurse we get the face shot.

Go to petitiononline.com and click on the two KLOL petitions and sign them. May or may not help.

The Stern comparisons are a waste of time. It's like Chevy/Ford. If you like one better, good for you. W&J didn't get all their material from Howard. Com'on, thats absurd. I like W&J because they are from where I'm from, Texas and Louisiana, and they talk about our area. You will never hear Howard talk about the Saints, or bar-be-cue places, or the Astros, or New Orleans politicians, or all the local news going on. Howard has a funny show, but it's just different from W&J, not better or worse.

I'm afraid KLOL is gone forever, like when they changed KIKK from country to whatever it is now, what, some jazz-Kenny G stuff? I remember listening to it when I was a wee lad. Even though I didnt care for the music, when they changed it, I thought it was sad and pitiful. Just like all the bubbas and bubbettes who got pissed, well, now it's our turn.

At fmqb.com, it said Wendy Miller will do middays on the Buzz now, and Steve Fixx afternoons on KKRW the Arrow.

Ask Dan Patrick and those KSEV AM-700 guys what they think of CC. When CC took over 950 KPRC, they booted all of them out too. He was able to buy 700 though, so they live on, and are doing quite well for an independent station. They get to choose the programming, not some over-bloated evil corporation which only cares about the dollar bill.

Same thing happened in San Jose, they changed a great rock station to Mexican music, so dont feel like the Lone Ranger here.

I woke up at 5:30 this morning, stared at my radio, which I always turn on to hear Stevie Ray doing "Little Wing", to have a little enjoyment to begin my workday week, to hear Johnsons smooth voice, to kick-start my day, to get a good feeling that there is at least two guys that "get it", to get a laugh, to hear about the idiot Hollywood types, to hear the Saints lost again, to get a Britney Spears update for a joke, but she is hot, and W-J helped carry me through my morning in a comforting way. I always knew they were going to say something I wanted to hear. I feel like I've lost two friends, like they moved away and left no new address or telephone number.

I stared for a minute, scratched my belly, then sat in silence and had a cup of joe. Didnt even turn the radio on this morning.

That sucks.

I am having withdrawls from W&J. What am I supposed to do, listen to 104 KRBE in the morning? Or am 700? If I listen to any of the other stations, I'm just sending my business to another Clear Channel station. It is a sad time for radio!

I am truly saddened to hear of the loss of a true Houston audio landmark. I have listed to this station almost daily for many years. I came to the Houston area is 1967, and like many, many others felt that this was a wonderful, colorful, local musical icon. A great mistake was made by a faceless corporation.

Myself and many others are very upset about the loss of Walton and Johnson and the rest of the Rock 101 D.J.'s.. I have been listening to rock 101 since I was a kid.. I am not 22 years old.. I listen to W & J from the time i wake up to the time they say, "Bye, bye Billy Ed." Then as the day progressed, my desk radio would play KLOL until 6:00 p.m. when i was getting off work.. Then i usually listened to it on my way home or a c.d.. Not only was I a true 10%er to W & j, but also to KLOL itself.. Right now I am listening to the arrow, its ok, but i would rather be listening to W & J for my morning antics.. Thanks for ruining my mornings and my work days..

I too am in total shock. I was a die-hard 10%er, and have gotten all my kids, brother, sister, boss, and friends to laugh with the antics in the morning. I knew I could make it through another day if I could laught with W & J in the morning, and my drive home and evening were always better with a VARIETY of rock music to listen to, not toned down or played out over and over again!! What the hell is CC thinking? We now have 6 latino radio stations, not to mention a newly formated newspaper (with spanish advertising, and sports pages in spanish), announcements at the Wal-Mart are even in spanish. When will it end!!!!
I will email the corporate idiots at CC, and sign every petition I can get my hands on. I am all for boycotting the CC advertisors and other stations (which really aren't worth a crap anyway. Time to spend some money on CD's, I won't go the XM route and put more money into CC's pockets. If someone would like some help organizing a demonstration - feel free to email me for LOTS of help. Also, where can we get a list of all of the companies spending money to advertise on CC?

This new channel is an embarrasment to everyone that is from Houston. I do not understand why everything American is bad... I think that this is also an embarrasment to the Hispanics... Once again the establishment is trying to divide us....

Rock 101 KLOL was always my station as soon as they went on the air in 1970. When I bought a car it was always my preset button 1. It is a dirty rotten shame that Clear Channel Communications is in the position of being able to turn their backs on a very devout and loyal bunch of employees and listeners......

Like we don't already have enough Latino crap on our radio band!! Where's the great American rock? Where's my Mandatory Metallica??!? Who came up with this brilliant idea?

SHOCK, DEPRESSION AND PURE DISGUST ...........that's how I feel about losing 101. 101 was staple for many of us long term listeners. I was bred, born and raised in Houston, Texas some 48 years ago. No other station compared. I know I'm going to get slammed for this but I wonder if I move to a Latino country, will THEY change their format for me? Doubtful. I'm beginning to feel like a third class citizen. Clear Channel... DON'T EVEN think about mailing me any advertisements about your new format - especially in a language that is FOREIGN to me. I waste enough time trying to find ENGLISH on labels and papers as it is. Last time I checked, I still lived in the gool ol' U S OF A. Time for me to turn off the radio completely. It's a sad day indeed. Wonder what Ozzie would think?

What the HELL is the problem? Aren't there ENOUGH LATINO stations on the air, you guys had to drop one of the best formats in Houston... Where do we go now for the real stuff? Who the hell made this decision? Obviously it was far from informed. There are listeners who jam only to 101 KLOL for the rock, and the old stuff, because it was real! This format SUCKS!

We need a solid rock station not hip-hop!

Put Klol back, I am sixteen and love everything from AC/DC to Green Day. This was my dad's favorite station and was mine also. Now I don't know what I am going to listen to. Maybe the buzz but they don't play any old stuff and they just started playing Metallica now that KLOL is off the air THIS SUX we miss you KLOL

It's absolutely ridiculous that KLOL switched formats to become a Spanglish Station. But...

A few things. KLOL's morning show sucked, plain and simple. A couple rednecks trying to be funny, but failing.

As a business person who buys radio, I've known for a long time that KLOL's ratings were bad. Buzzfest sells out, or comes close consistently. When 101 tried to do their own version, they had maybe 4k attendees at the woodlands. The station has been in trouble for years. That said, they didn't need to switch to Spanglish. Hire a new music director, switch things up a bit, and improve ratings w/o a drastic format change. One thing they had going for them was that they reach a primarily over 21 audience, which is great for many advertisers, especially alchohol. The station could have been saved, w/the right Music Director, and tweaking.

As much as everyone's mad at Clear Channel, the only place to hear Rock is on 94.5, 93.7, or 96.5 (rarely)....make that switch to Satellite radio as soon as you can!

KLOL is total crap but it's (was) one of the better pieces of crap on the radio here. I still can't believe that here in the 4th largest city in Amerika we have such lame radio.

Remember Folks...It all boils down to money! After some research this morning I find that Houston has not 6 but 16!! Hispanic radio stations and they have more combined income from advertisers than any other format. Apparently that is the demographics spending money in Houston??? It is time to boycott those advertisers! We know that Rock KLOL may not have had the largest pull/audience, but you would think that in the 4th largest city there would be room for several different styles of radio programs so everyone could be happy. This could work if one company (Clear Channel) didn't own them all. In other large cities like Chicago you find hundred of stations that cater to several small-medium niches. This variety wasn't just about the mighty dollar but offering something to everyone in the city that keeps them in the money. Lets not give up the fight to bring back music and Walton & Johnson for us 10%'s!!!

I have emailed Clear Channel about this mess and I plan to keep emailing them until I get my Outlaw Dave back. If anyone has anything to add to my protest you can send a comment for them the email I set up for this is Rock101Forever@hotmail.com.

Clear Channel- I hope you implode. Greedy bastards. I will truly miss Walton and Johnson. There is no one else like them.

Put that shit back on AM!!!! Viva my ASS!!!

I want my klol back. What has become of Houston when we remove icons in the middle of the night?

Oh, my God, I am so sad right now, I've been pissy all weekend. No more Uncle Nasty? No more Mandatory Metallica? 101 is my favorite station. What do we have for rock now? Not a goddamn thing, that's what. W&J were not homophobic, I'm a lesbian, and they were my favorite morning show. I loved Billy Ed, he cracked me up.
I'm not old either, I'm 23, 101 was listened to by like every demographic there is, even my dad, and my little sister listen to it. What the f**k...Everyone I've talked to is pissed about this. We do not need any more crap latino stations. Even if Hispanics are the majority in this city, a fact which I find questionable, there is no call for this, there's already like a hundred and twenty-seven spanish stations. I hate everybody right now. Man, I want to kick somebody in the freakin face.

I heard Wendy Miller is now on the Buzz from 10-3. Any news on where Outlaw Dave will land?

I actually like the new station. I am 30 yrs old and i have a son. I think this will teach my son how to speak some spanish and teach how to dance. the music has been pretty good. it's upbeat and i dont really have to listen to any dj's, which can get really tiring to listen to after a while. sorry for those of you who do not like the change. THAT SOUNDS LIKE A PERSONAL PROBLEM!!!!

Check it out, everyone is pitching a fit because of a damn radio station . I mean all you loyal listeners act like you aren't ever going to hear the music again. You were loyal listeners right? Go out and buy the music support out artist now and damn with Station. ROCK WILL NEVER DIE RIGHT!! Yeah, Rock 101 was the Shit !!
Get over it and move on to the next best. There was obviously a opportunity for Clear Channel Mega 101 and they took it dont be hatin' Your, Latina

It's not about the ROCK. It's about the institution.....KLOL has been that institution. All the blood drives. All the charitable things that were done by the personalities,That were actualy from HOUSTON. I cannot believe this has happenend. Thanks CC you greedy bastards. And don't think I'm going out to get XM. The radio is now OFF!!!!!!!

Two quick things:

For all of those who want to get back at Clear Channel by switching to XM, please do your research. Clear Channel is a major investor in XM. Sirius is backed by Ford and Daimler Chyrsler, BTW.

Secondly, Chuck, have you ever had 100 comments before? If not, you do now.

I need my rock and roll!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS IS WHY I AM NOW ON SIRIUS SATTELITE!

This is an outrage! I couldn't believe my ears when I woke up this morning. I spent probably 10 minutes adjusting the dial on my clock radio trying to tune in Walton & Johnson before I accepted what had happened. Fourteen Latino stations weren't enough? Where is the logic in destroying the only bastion of comprehensive rock music in this great city? Rock 101 has been a staple of the Houston airwaves with a proud 34 year tradition. I've grown up listening to 101. Nearly every new rock song I've heard on the radio has come from that station. There is a sudden and unexpected void in my life now that is comparable to the death of a loved one. Where now will I turn for my music? There is nowhere that can compare. Meanwhile Latinos now have fifteen choices instead of fourteen. This is clearly a racist move. I have nothing against Latinos, and my anger is not directed towards them. If Clear Channel wanted to try to get a bigger piece of the pie of Hispanic listeners, why would it dismantle the only station in the city like Rock 101, forsaking it's many listeners and employees. They could have destroyed any number of lesser stations to accoplish this. No this is, without a doubt, a response by the liberal media (Clear Channel being a member) to the increase in the conservative Hispanic vote. Squelching conservative voices like Walton & Johnson is a cheap ploy to accomplish that end and it will not work. The way this was done, without warning, lacks any semblance of class. Shame on Clear channel.

Their format was like a confortable chair, maybe a little ratty looking but part of the house anyway. Clear Channel will never bring them back. I imagin they will reflect when executives at CC are replaced with automated executives or offshore concepts. After 25 years of listening I have outgrown the content but not the FREEDOM to say what they did as local Houstonians. I guess the content for the new program will come from mexico after all it is cheaper that way.

I agree with all of you except Latina. Surprise, suprise... sombody calling herself "Latina" has no problem with the change. She obviously has a larger bank account than most hard workong Houstonians who can't fit satalite radio into there budget or as she suggests: buying all the CDs from all the various artist who we heard on 101. I hate that crappy music Hispanics listen to and now I hate Clear Channel. If I decide to spring for satalite, you can rest assured it will NOT be XM.

KLOL was the longest running runnning rock station in History. I am unbelievably pissed the F&%$ off that the a$$holes at CC, changed the format to tejano.
I am not a racist and I have latino friends, but there are enough latino, tejano, chicano, or whatever stations in houston and there are not enough rock stations. Hell they all play the same music anyway.
Did everyone know that the a$$hole cc executive who made the decision to change the format was a latino. Coincidence? If the tables were turned and if it had been a white guy who changed to a rock station from a latino station, he would be called a racist.
Everyone loved rock 101, white, black, hispanic, chinese, indian, and I am sure that there are some hispanics that were pissed off about the change too.
I hate this I really do. I feel so sorry for Dave, Wendy, Locke, Nasty, Fix, walton, johnson and all the other great personalities who made our days a little better with good humored fun, and ball bustin rock.
If any of you out there plan a riot, or a rally to take back the rock,let me know, I will be there with bells on.

LONG LIVE KLOL AND LONG LIVE ROCK

I was SO HAPPY to hear Wendy Miller's voice on the radio this morning - she's now on 94.5 The Buzz from 10 am to 3 pm! Apparently 94.5 is changing their play list a bit to include some of the KLOL stuff. I listened today and it wasn't too bad. Wendy said they're also going to do Mandatory Metallica on week nights! But I really miss Outlaw Dave and Loch - any word on what they're doing now?

Bring Rock 101.1 Back! Screw the latino crap.

The Houston area has 16 different Latino stations, if Clear Channel wanted to create another one, fine, but they had no reason to eliminate a rock and roll icon from the air ways. KLOL had a large and loyal fan base and was evidently doing well finacially (thats all the bean counters at Clear Channel care about anyway). Any way you look at it this shows contempt for our city and our demographic so we (KLOL listeners) should hit them where it hurts by complaining to or boycotting the sponsors of CLEAR Channel stations in the Houston area

I am amazed at how stupid a company can be. I work in the industry in Houston and have grown up on the solid Rock of Houston formerly known as KLOL. I was amazed when they fired Pruett, Grego and the Boner. But remember when they did that they were real shady, they just took them off the air just like they did our rock-n-roll. Now dont get me wrong, I hated the new morning show with a passion, they were really a bunch of self rightous idiots, but I loved that station and think that Clear Channel upper management needs to step in and see how much the middle management guys screwed up this time... By the way,middle management is who got rid of the old morning show and almost got sued so they hired them back in Dallas and then screwed them again by pulling the plug on the format they were on there.

What screwed the people of Houston out of good radio was the FCC allowing these huge companys to own multiple stations in one demographic, now they have a monopoly on the market and 'We' the people, eventhough we own the air waves cant do anything about it!

Clown Shoes

Listen everybody! I'm sorry for those who feel abandoned with the absence of Rock 101. I appreciate 80s metal, but that station was in the tank when they started to play Creed and Alice In Chains. They might as well have added Matchbox 20.....never mind that is reserved for Mix 96.5 Anyway I am glad that Mega 101 has taken over. Orbita 100.7 was a recent casualty at the expense of Univision Radio and now Mega 101 took over at the best possible time. Like I said earlier, I am sorry for the Rock 101 fans, but don't make borderline racist comments to defend the situation. I am Cuban not Mexican or Central American, so I appreciate a fresh station that plays Caribbean-influenced hip-hop, salsa remixes and Spanish club music without the Spanish love songs, Tejano, Norteño, bachata and 80s style Spanish rock. Yes there are a half dozen Spanish language F. M. stations, but they each serve different segments of the Hispanic community. Did African-Americans have to settle for Majic and the Boxx - no, that's why Power 97.5 and Party 104.9 emerged. So, once again, I hope another station emerges to absorb the loss of Rock 101, but don't blame the Latino MAJORITY for the loss! Salsa and Spanish Hip-Hop does not equal Tejano/Norteño/Cumbia.....all Latinos do not share the same musical tastes, just like all Anglos, African-Americans and Asians don't!!!!!

Screw Walton & Johnson!!! They are Republican Crap Rock. Have you traitors forgotten Stevens and Pruett? They are the real Houston Radio Gawds!! Nevertheless, the Runaway Radio was the real staple in Houston. 34 years down the drain.

I moved to Houston 15 yrs ago and 101 was like a new friend. It was a good rock station and played some fine rock tunes most of the time. The morning show was never good after Stevens and Pruitt but i was always thinking they could do much better for a replacment. So its the old 18-34 demo they want. But we have more money and spend it more wisely.......screw Clear Channel.......we will see.........Rock on !

I cannot believe that we really need another Hispanic station in Houston. Is this still America, or Tijuana? I grew up listening to KLOL, and am very saddened to see it go. I want to know what the listeners can do to get our Rock 101 back!

I hated 101 klol. Grew up with it, now hate it!
The damn djs reminded me of white redneck hippies with long dirty hair, tatoos, and fast cars that they work on in thier yard daily. They also remind me of people who love waylon jennings and jethro tull and are truly of the stoner age and need to be laid to rest. I dont agree with the format as I really miss the old 107.5 krqt the rocket. but hey good things never last.
so good riidance 101 and all you redneck, confederate flag wearing, bandana, hat on backwards, white bred, marijuana smoking hippies!
Whoo Hooo!
Change is good!!!!!!!!!

No more KLOL??!!! Jesus F***** Christ!!!!! We should all move now!! Clear Channel can kiss my ass!! To leave the KLOL staff, especially Outlaw Dave(Dave Andrews),jobless right before the holidays is chicken shit corporate politics!! As if we needed more tejano crap on the airwaves. Did I fall asleep and suddenly wake up in Tijuana?? I thought this was Houston, home of Houston's Rock 101, apparently not. As a native Houstonian and listener for 15 years I am enraged!!!! The station was as old as me. What a sad time for us listeners and fans, but especially our beloved Rock Jocks!! Outlaw Dave we wish you well and we all know that no matter where you end up, you will still be the coolest you have always been!!! To me you are a ROCKSTAR!!!!

For the last time.....the new format is not Tejano. I don't listen to Tejano, part of which I like this new station. Nothing against Tejano, but it's not my music. I now hope another station emerges so I can avoid reading the hypocrisy, racism and stereotypical comments. I listen to all formats, I wish I could go see Metallica tomorrow, but I'm also glad to hear Celia Cruz and El Gran Combo during the week instead of just on Friday and Saturday nights. By the way they are Salsa not Tejano!
Here is a chart - please follow along:
93.3 Norteño (Univision Radio)
102.9 Tejano (Univision Radio)
104.9 Black and some Hispanic Hip-Hop (Univision Radio)
106.5 Spanish Love songs with some Pop and Rock (Univision Radio)
107.9 Spanish Rock, Pop, Love songs (Liberman Broadcasting)
and now
101.1 Spanish hip-hop, reggae, salsa and merengue remixes, pop and some Spanish rock.
Now tell me it's Tejano - I don't think so!
Rest in Peace Rock 101, Bienvenidos Mega 101!!!!!

I just have one simple quote.

"Rock 'an roll aint noise pollution... rock and roll aint gonna die..."

All you loyal listeners, this is our time. This is our time to stand up and fight for what we want and what we believe. If you wanna stand up to CC find their studio, get some poster boards, something to hold those signs up high and dont stop. Encourage your friends to do so. EVERYONE needs to get in on this, this isn't just some stupid rock station they flipped over, this is us, this will always be us, this will never change. Not one of us who has listend to KLOL will ever forget the joy that this radio station has given us. They aren't just DJ's, they're our family. They're the ones that make our trips home bearable, what make our parties.. parties. So I say to you Houstonians. Fight them. Fight them hard, fight them long, fight them till they cant fight no more. Keep up the fight, for if you don't you're letting them win. Don't buy a damn thing they try to sell you, don't buy XM radio, email Clear Chanel, call clear channel, tell your friends, tell them to tell theirs. We CAN fight this we WILL fight this and I don't care if I'm the only one out there, I will personally protest this alone if I have to. I will find out where the studio is and post my cell phone number later if you want to get ahold of me and come on over. Keep up the fight guys, it might do some good. But if it doesn't, at least we're trying.

I find it ironic that last "Steve" guy exposes his own ignorance by making sweeping generalizations and overtly racist stereotypes about all rock listeners. Why is it okay for non-white people to express intolerance of others. I've listened to 101 my whole life and I don't fit a single one of your descriptions of rock listeners. We are not the haters, but you are.

Its a sad day in Houston when they take away our only Rock station and change it to yet another Latino station. What were they thinking. I am furious and agree with Lindsey we need to do something and let them know how we feel

Amanda - I hate Clearchannel

god damn what the hell is this. I had no idea of a change until friday and i thought my radio was broken or something. I mean mandatory metallica, 420 rock block, zeppelin, and all that. The Kurt Cobain memorial. WHat the hell is CC thinking? There is no more good stations in houston except for 93.7 or so. This also will bring down CC's ratings considering there are enuf latino shit around without killing a great rock station.

What several of you are saying about contacting Clear Channel is a reat idea. I was just at the corporate website (http://www.clearchannel.com) and noted they had email address for general and the radio P.R. Dude (Omar Thompson omarthompson@clearchannel.com). I was going to call him in the morning, but decided against using his direct line. Think I'll use the corporate H.Q. direct line there in San Antonio (210-822-2828)I will assume that the new Klol does not have it's sponsors lined up yet, or else they are just waiting on the furor to die down (10,000 songs??? Give me a break!!!) Over 5,000 of you have signed the local petition electronically, if you are over 18 years of age, please take a few minutes to contact (call would be best Clear Channel Corporate tomorrow. They have already discarded us as listeners and could care less about how we 5,000 feel. Hopefully 5,000 phone calls over the next few days will let them know. By the way, the other Clear Channel FM stations in this market are KHMX 96.5, KKRW 93.7, KODA 99.1, KTBZ 94.5, I just removed all of them from my radio presets, and will definately tuning into the new Klol in a few weeks to find out who the new sponsors are so i can call them with my opinions on what stations they sponsor as well.
Good luck to our friends Walton, Johnson, Outlaw Dave, & Wendy, we'll miss you. LONG LIVE ROCK AND ROLL!!!!!!!! 'Stingray'

WHAT THE FUCK cc MY BIRTHDAY WAS THE 13th
EVERYDAY I WAKE UP & THERE IS NO KLOL!!!
I HATE LATINO!!!!!!!!!
94.5 JUST TURNED ON "SAD BUT TRUE" SO FOR NOW IM LEVING IN PEACE
FUCK YOU cc

I have been listen to KLOL since the 70's.
I remember Jack Smack stacking wax. The morming
show was terrible. Please bring KLOL back.
Mike B.

I think that this is a big pile of crap too. There is enough mexicans and as well mexican stations in this town we beat Santa Anna and we can beat them again so they need to put you guys back on the air cause this just aint right thanks hope this helps guys.

SCREW CLEAR CHANNEL. THEY SUCK HARD. BRING BACK THE ONLY REAL HOUSTON ROCK STATION ROCK 101. THERE ARE ALREADY TOO MANY LATIO STATIONS ON THE AIR

I can't believe this crap, oh great another mexican station. Get that crap off the air and bring back the radio gods PLEASE.

I WANT CLEAR CHANNEL TO KNOW THAT THERE IS ALOT OF PISSED OFF PEOPLE IN HOUSTON.HOW COULD YOU TAKE THEM OFF THE AIR.THE STATION WAS ON THE AIR FOR 34 YEARS PLUS AND YOU PECKERHEADS TAKE THEM OFF THE AIR THATS BULL.WHAT ABOUT OUTLAW DAVE THAT WAS THERE OVER 10 YEARS AND THE REST OF THE CREW,BRING THE CREW BACK OR CLEAR CHANNEL HAS JUST LOST ALOT OF LISTENERS!

Does it seem funny to anyone else that Clear Channel is based in San Antonio and they keep changing formats to mexican music? What a drag. I just turned 40 and I remember 101 from the times of hanging out with my big sister. Been a loyal listener ever since I can remember. If there is something we can do, than we really should be doing it. Their taking over the air waves and it sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! E.H.

Got news for you W&J got their start from S&P. So what if they were Republican. They were better morning show than the laughing goof-balls on the buzz or any other station. People like JAYE need to wake up and take their heads out from between their legs; she is the kind of person that makes Houston traffic suck also! Kind of hard to see with your head up there, especially while driving. All thats left now is bubble-gum on the rest of the stations.

I am a 21 year old college student. i learned to drive while listening to 101. i worked out in football to 101. i bonded with my dad to 101. if there is anything i can do to get 101 back on the air, i will be there. good music was hard to find in houston to begin with. i only wish the people who made this decision had the balls to step up and not sneak around and take it from us in the middle of the night. f-ing pussys

THE ROOF THE ROOF THE ROOF IS ON FIRE ... WE DONT NEED NO WATER LET THE MUTHAFUCKER BURN ...BURN MUTHAFUCKER ...BURN!!!

101 still ROCKS!!!! lol

just a little info. i emailed one of the dj's at the buzz and asked if they knew what was happening with any of the klol djs. she said that wendy miller was taking the mid days on 94.5. i would imagine outlaw dave will probably pop up on the arrow or the buzz soon also.

HAPPY TRAILS MUCHACHOS
I PERSONALLY LISTEN TO ROCK THE MOST BUT SOME OF THE PROGRAMS ON 101 WERE SO FULL OF GAR-BARGE I'AM SURPRIZRD YOU MADE IT THIS LONG. IF THERE HAD BEEN MORE MUSIC AND LESS BULL-CACA Y'ALL WOULD MORE THAN LIGHTLY STILL BE THERE.MAYBE IF WE THOUGHT A LITTLE MORE OF OUR FELLOW MAN OR WOMAN, INSTEAD OF JUST OUR SELFS WE ALL WOULD BE BETTER OFF.ANYWAYS ON TO SATELLITE MUSIC

I am pissed.I have been listening to KLOL for over 30 years.I will call clearchannel communications and let them know what bullshit I think this is.I only wish that I could do more. This is an outrage and cowardly thing to do and the fight is not over yet!

If you have stock in clear channnel communicatons dump it! If you have mutal funds that own clear channel dump it.

I can not believe it. Here, I am swithing radio stations looking for KLOL - instead I hear some mexican junk in it's place? What the hell were they thinking? This was the best station in all the FM dials. KLOL was it, what are you suppose to listen to now - truthfully I didn't care much for the radio shows - I loved the music. Best Rock on FM

Rock ON - Samantha

THIS SUDDEN CHANGE IS COMPLETE BULLSHIT
I WANT WALTON AND JOHNSON BACK

I HAVE SWITCHED ALL MY RADIOS TO OTHER CHANNELS
UNTIL IT'S BACK TO NORMAL....PERIOD

I'VE BEEN TUNED TO 101 SINCE MOBY & MATHEWS

I'LL BE DAMNED IF ILL LISTEN TO THIS CRAP.....!

BESIDES WE SPEAK ENGLISH IN THE UNITED STATES

NOT LATINO...MEXICAN...MEXICAN...OR MEXICAN

I PROTEST THIS CHANGE, THE PEOPLE WHO OR PERSON WHOM INITIATED IT MUST BE LATINO OR FUCKING 'MEXICAN'....WHO EVER....FUCK YOU.

Bring back KLOL...I need it back!!

Hey for the guy who moved from Houston to Georgia, I just moved to Houston from Georgia one year ago. Atlanta's 96 ROCK is going to be next - -and Atlanta's rock choices are already limited. If Clear Channel owns everything in Houston, why should they compete with themselves?

IF YOU BUNCH OF FUCKED-UP PEOPLE DON'T PULL YOUR HEADS OUT OF YOUR ASSES...YOU'LL SOON BE HOLDING YOUR DICK IN HAND I PROMISE YOU THAT.
I HATE YOU FUCKING PRICKS.

Keep the fight up!
For Rock and America!

I'll be 43 years old in 2 days. Rock 101 was the number 1 preset on all my radios. I've listen to it for at least 22 years, long before I even moved to Houston. It may not have always been the best, but it was always there to turn too when you needed it. I agree the suits at Clear Channel are idiots and have no idea what they're doing. I'll be finding all the petition web sites I can and signing in.

You see? That's why schools teach you how to not on;y speak english, but to also type it. Had you spent more time learning instead of getting 14 year old girls pregnant with your welfare babies, you might have not sounded like an idiot.

BTW, I AM Hispanic, so don't call me a fucking racist.

I can't believe that 101 klol has been turned into a tejano station. That was the only rock station I have ever listened to. 27 Years. I guess it's all cd's and satellite radio now. You Clear Channel morons need to change it back. You don't realise how many people you have royally pissed off. FIX IT!!!

It appears now that The Buzz has Manditory Metallica at Ten PM weeknights.

Two words SATELLITE RADIO!!!! All kinds of rock, commercial free. It's the wave of the future! You can't beat it.

Dear Mark M.
Why do you think i'm a beaner, you coconut

I listened to 101 as much for the music as the little breaks were the dj's spoke. Does SR have dj's? If not, it's automated, and that seems quite static. If I wanted no dj's, I listen to a cd.

"Dear Mark M.
Why do you think i'm a beaner, you coconut"

Oh look......pathetic racial slurs. How original. Oh wait....being a beaner is cool. Why? Because you speak like an uneducated Mexican. And?

Brilliant move CC...when I think of good music I think of one thing - tejano. Nothing like taking out the driving guitar riffs and bringing in more accordian. Somehow I think that bands like Metallica, AIC, and Led Zep will mean more to music than Ricky Martin and Los del Rio (Macarena). It is not that I disagree with market demands, just why 101...why not something else that has yet to establish itself. A sad day for us all.

I just read that comment, "I am a hispanic so don't call me a racist.."

That is so ignorant...hispanics cannot be racist?

Yes, they can. But speaking about ones own ethnic group because of how another member of the same said group looks like an idiot IS NOT being a racist.

I thought that would be how it was taken. Sorry for the confusion.

I cannot beleive they took off Walton and Johnson to replace them with some mexican station. 101 klol rocked the houston area, and now it is gonna be a low rated station now. We need klol back.

PROTEST!!!!!!! WE NEED EVERYONE THAT IS PISSED OFF BY CLEAR CHANNEL'S STUPIDITY TO RALLY AT THEIR STUDIOS. PEACEFUL PROTEST DURING RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC IN THE GALLERIA SHOULD HELP US GET OUR POINT ACROSS. WE NEED TO COME TOGETHER AS A COMMUNITY AND SHOW THEM THAT WE WON'T TAKE THIS LYING DOWN. THE ADDRESS IS 2000 WEST LOOP SOUTH, HOUSTON, TX. BRING SIGNS, T-SHIRTS, AND MOST OF ALL AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 2004 FROM 3:00PM TIL WE GET OUR POINT ACROSS.

LET THE MEDIA KNOW ABOUT IT. WE WANT COVERAGE. IF ANYONE HAS SPONSORS THAT COULD HELP OUT WITH FOOD AND DRINKS THAT WOULD BE GREAT TOO. EXCELLENT EXPOSURE FOR THEM AS WELL.

Direct quotations from earlier posts:

THE PEOPLE WHO OR PERSON WHOM INITIATED IT MUST BE LATINO OR FUCKING 'MEXICAN'....WHO EVER....FUCK YOU......
There is enough mexicans and as well mexican stations in this town we beat Santa Anna and we can beat them again.....
Hell they all play the same music anyway.....
We do not need any more crap latino stations.....
Put that shit back on AM!!!! Viva my ASS!!!.....
how many people actually listen to that Latino crap anyway?.....

I agree one has freedom of speech to post these comments, but that does not excuse the blatant racism of it. This is a forum to vent dissapointment at the loss of Rock 101, not to dump on the Hispanic population, of which Mexicans are but one ingredient. I'm Cuban and we are a minority among Houston Hispanics, but Colombians and Guatemalans are two common nationalities in Houston, and they generally appreciate Salsa-Merengue and don't appreciate Tejano-Norteño too often. That's not even accounting for Panamanians, Nicaraguans, Hondurans, Venezuelans and other nationalities which help make this city diverse.
So maybe some of you will realize that not all Hispanics/Latinos are Mexicans. Mexicans have a rich and historic heritage, but they're not the only Spanish-speaking members of the greater Houston area!

There is a Pakistani station on AM 1560 which I believe deserves an FM station with their significant population and awesome music. The Vietnamese deserve one too.
90.1 K.P.F.T. leads the way with respect to inclusive music formats.

So feel free to share your dissatisfaction with Clear Channel Communications or even the new Mega 101 itself, but do not use the Hispanic/Latino population as the scapegoat.....blame the mediocrity of Alice In Chains and Pearl Jam for sagging ratings.

Wendy Miller is a sell out. Yea we all need to look out for A#1,but come on Wendy. Just two months ago before lunch time she was saying how she is living the Rosk-n-roll dream by working for KLOL. Saying that she grew up listening to KLOL and knowing that she would love to work for the station some day. Now she's candy coating the fact that she's at the BUZZ. Wendy you are a smart woman,you could have done alot better. And FIXX going to the ARROW. Come on you damn SELL OUTS...
I would'nt given those greedy BASTARDS an ounce of my talent just to keep my job.
CLEAR CHANNEL...I wish your company was in the towers instead of all those innocent people.
YOU SUCK CC

You can count me in for the protest. I'll be the one with the confederate flag in one hand,and a sign saying "CLEAR CHANNEL COMMUNICATIONS SUCKS" in the other. I'll be wearing the oldest KLOL t-shirt in my collection. LET"S ROCK........

This is so SAD. I've been in Houston since KLOL started. Remember the Radio with the Ball and Chain? Well, I can't believe that the company decided to change to Latino Music. Aren't there enought Latino stations here already? WHAT WERE YOU THINKING????!!!

Clear Channel was only looking out for Clear Channel. KLOL was a part of Houston for 34 fuckin' years!!! COME ON!!!!!!!!! As for Outlaw Dave?? He was the best Rock Jock on the air ever!!!! He is talented, funny, kind and that voice.........whoo hoo.....not to mention the best looking radio jock EVER!!!! How sad to do this to him and the other KLOL staffers as well as us loyal listeners and fans!! I will keep on SCREAMING OUT LOUD,"I WANT MY KLOL AND OUTLAW DAVE BACK!!!!" He was rockin' us for many years from the time he started on the 10pm-2am shift. Ahhhh, DAVE WE LOVE YOU!!!!

I dont know wahat the F*** ya'll are talking about? Mega 101 is the best thing that has happened to H-town. Ya'll need to F***ing realize that Mexicans are taking over and thats that. Your KLOL is out and MEGA 101 is in. Deal with it!!!

you have other stations to listen to, mega 101 can suck on my left one. metallica started on the zakk united show for mandatory metallica at 9pm on weekdays on 94.5 the buzz, but its not the same without uncle nasty. im going to metallica at the toyota center tonight, and by god im bringing a sign that says bring back the real 101!

Great idea Bob F. about the protest!! I'll definitely be there!!! We need to say it over and over that we don't want or need another latino station playing disgusting music!!! WE WANT OUR KLOL AND OUTLAW DAVE!!! And to Jackie J. with her or his smart ass comment about mexicans taking over, screw you and your no doubt fat ass!!! MOVE TO MEXICO THEN!!! Spreadin' like cockroaches gettin' your free shit from us taxpayers!!!

People! KLOL is gone!!! Signing the petition is going to do absolutely nothing! Go ahead and sign it if it will make you feel better, but realize that a year from now KLOL will still be off the air!! As someone else pointed out. . another rock station will come to Houston. . just be patient. Also, more than likely it will completely outdo what KLOL did. . . just hang on people, but don’t fool yourself in thinking that you can bring back KLOL. . you will not succeed!!!

To Mr. Reality, if we want to show our support by signing this petition, then keep your negativity to yourself!! Maybe it will help and maybe not, but we all are showing how much we love KLOL and OUTLAW DAVE!! So let me fool myself if I will, I LOVE OUTLAW DAVE & KLOL and I ALWAYS WILL!!!!!!!!!! OD you will always ROCK MY WORLD!!!

YEAH!! HOORAYY!! I just found out about this new station and i am HAPPY for it. I'm Latin and it was about time we got another source to listen to out music like Reggaeton and so on. Too bad for yall, but theres other stations out there to take ya'lls pain away! Ok se ya!!!

Luckly, my car has XM, in-dash CD and a 12 disk CD changer. 101 played great music but I have to admit that their morning show sucked. My kids liked the music, but were not allowed to listen to the station on their way to school in the mornings. 94.5's morning show is much better, and they actually play some music as well.

When I first realized that this thing had changed to a foreign language station, I thought my radio was broken and receiving a broadcast from the twilight zone or something. Maybe one of the perferred mexican channels will someday change to German or Japanese or something else that they can't understand and see how they feel about that. This program on my radio will be perminantly changed no matter what the bozo's that did this think just out of dis-respect for their employees, listeners and the general population that enjoys the language we call "national".

I loved rock101 klol i was so mad when it came off when i hard about on the news now no more good rock songs of the 80s and 90s lets get klol back on the air.

As a AmericanMexican (tejano)in Houston i can't believe they took off KLOL. I'm a rocker who happens to listen to spanish from time to time, do we really need so many stations that play the same crap.

To Michele T. lets do our best to get the BEST ROCK STATION back . KLOL RULES!!!!

D.J. TRIPLE.G great point.

Hey American-Mexican, rock on friend!!!! I just wrote SAVE DAVE across my t-shirt and I am going for a walk down Heights Blvd. Honk if anyone sees me to show your support for OUTLAW DAVE and KLOL!!We need our Rock Station Back!!!! Stop the Insanity!!!!!!

Come On! What's next? Put it back!

Walton and johnson morning show can not be beat by anyone or any other station.101 as being latino now!!!!! Big mistake for clear channel..
I feel like moving somewhere else now.Why remove something that people like and listen to every morning.This message is only to the person who made this decision.......YOU FUCKED UP!!!!!!!!!
The ride to work will never be the same but it sure as hell wont be on 101(latino)anymore.......

IT'S LIKE THE SONG SAID..THE DAY THE MUSIC DIED.
I'VE BEEN A PART OF THE KLOL FAMILY FOR TWENTY
YEARS.FOR ME IT'S LIKE LOSEING MY BEST FRIEND,THERE IS A HOLE THERE THAT CAN ONLY BE FILLED BY "ROCK"101.1KLOL.I HAVE NOT HAD MY RADIO
ON IN MY TRUCK,I WILL NOT GIVE CLEAR CHANNEL ANY
OF MY RATEINGS.I HATE THEM,I HOPE THEY CRASH AND
BURN.THERE WILL BE A SPECIAL PLACE IN HELL FOR
THEM.

chuntaro, burn in hell. KLOL, the real one, will have more loyalty, and more prestige than your mega-gay 101 will EVER have, bottom line. i like listening to dean & rog make fun of the new 101 in the morning, its great.

I'm with ya Caleb!!!! Those assholes that talk shit need to go some place else to do it!! This is to show support for KLOL and OUTLAW DAVE!!!!!

well im pumped tho, im going to metallica tonight at the toyota center, im making a sign that says bring back the REAL 101

I grew up listening to KLOL, but eventually the station turned into a bunch of crap especially in the am, so I am not hurt because it is gone. And for you all racist out there bashing the new station; it is not the Hispanic's faults that klol was replaced. It was CC's fault. They could careless about what you all want; they care more about what sells. So, stop complaining and do something about it....bunch of cry babies.

Maybe I'll see ya there Caleb. I will be wearing my SAVE DAVE t-shirt!! As for MV that's talking trash, go to hell!! We can complain all we fucking want to!! Why are you even posting if you aren't a KLOL listener/fan!? You need to get a life!!

maybe so, ill make a save dave t-shirt myself, look for my big white poster board tho, it will say

BRING BACK THE REAL 101!

on both sides in black spraypaint. ill be on the floor, wheres ur seats at?

THIS IS FUCKING BULLSHIT! FIRST OFF I REMEMBER WHEN Z-ROCK 106.9 WENT OFF AIR, NOW THIS. ROCK 101 WAS GREAT. WALTON&JOHNSON,OUTLAW DAVE AND FOR THOSE WHO REMEMBER, STEVENS AND PRUITT.
SECONDLY, FOR THOSE OF YOU INSULTING HISPANICS, FUCK YOU! TRUE THERE ARE ENOUGH LATIN STATIONS, BUT LAY OFF THE LATINOS. WE'RE JUST AS PISSED AS THE REST.

MV, it is your fault, if you guys wouldnt have swam over here there wouldnt be latino stations to begin with.

Attention: Saturday, December 4, at HUSH on the Katy Freeway, there will be a FAREWELL KLOL BASH with many of the jocks in attendance. Please come out and show your support for the only Real Rock Station Houston ever had. As more details become available I will post it. Rock on OUTLAW DAVE!!! KLOL will always be the best station ever!!
Caleb, I'll be on the floor too!

Everyone can go to the following and do something about it:

Gather your anger and join the masses in protest. We will defeat the CORPORATE HOARS!!

Cleveland Steamers, Come Smoke With Me! One hour to 4:20.

man i cant believe they got rid of klol that was the best rock station ever. i am hispanic but i am tired of all these spanish stations taking over the air waves i'm tired of all the damn mojo music i called and left tons of phone messages on the stations voice mail i hate clear channel !!!!!

ROCK ON JOSE!!!!!! KEEP SHOWING YOUR SUPPORT!!! WE ALL WANT OUR KLOL AND OUTLAW DAVE BACK!!!!! WE LOVE YOU OUTLAW!!!!!!AND YOU ALWAYS WILL BE OUTLAW NO MATTER WHAT!!!! I'LL SAY IT AGAIN AND AGAIN-YOU ARE A REAL ROCKSTAR!!!!!!!!

Anyone the disliked W&J is either to dumb to get it or had no sense of humor.

101 WILL be missed by me deeply along with allit's jocks.

I can at least hear Wendy on 94.5 and Steve FIxx on 93.7.....I still wanna hear Dave and Locke

Dont worry rock 101 will return the idiot dj they got incharge of this station is curse the idiots name is bo corona every station he has been on has always had to change format or just not broadcast any more . Rock 101 forever fuck spanish music that damn reggetone crap can go to hell mandatory metallica till the troops come home lives 420 uncle nasty and dave outlaw forever they will return .

Well, I'm not surprised. KLOL has sucked for years. I abandoned radio when the only real rock station - ZROCK 106.9 went off the air. Clear Channel is run by hispanics, so they could care less. You got what they listen to and they own the airwaves.Get smart. Make MP3's of all your favorite tunes and burn them to CD, get a decent MP3 player, put the CD in and set it to random play. Superior "radio", no talk, no ads. Also, how about we get together and put up a network of low power radio stations on the same freq. and linked with one feed? Won't cost much and commercial radio can't compete.

Sad but true. And, it royally sucks!! I want the Outlaw back!! I can listen to Wendy on 94.5 but I don't really care for the station.
I say we all protest at the studio. Picket signs in hand & DARE them to cross the line! Just like the union strikers do!!!! I will be bugging the shit out of clear channel. How dare they!!!!!!

If you are pissed about this decision by CC and decide to go satellite, please buy SIRIUS. XM satellite is the bastard child of CC, stay away from it. Tell car dealers you won't buy thier car if they have XM satellite installed. Insist on SIRIUS. Since CC has no soul, hitting them in the pocketbook is the only place where it might hurt them.

well hell........BRING BACK 97 ROCK
TO HELL WITH TEJANO MUSIC

someone plz post cc's website or email addy so we can overwelm them with emails regarding this delicate situation......god damn bastards

If we bring any station back, bring ZROCK back! Real metal, no censorship (honestly, when did you last hear Pantera's Fucking Hostile or Slayer's Payback on KLOL!?) Hell, does anyone here remember the free concerts at Milby Park that were sponsored by the original KLOL? Years later they wimped out...the KLOL that went off the air had given up on rock even before CC bought them, but I think we should hunt down the worthless dirtbags that sold various stations to CC and kick their asses but GOOD! Then take all of CC's station off the air simultaneously.

Any tech types out there that understand the term "phase conjugation" will know what we need.

This is the most idiotic move I've ever heard of.
Why would we need another latino station in Houston, english is already practically a second language here. You people are un-American.
This has to be a joke. It is the worst business decision I have ever heard of and I have seen some stupid ones in my nearly sixty years.
I can see AM radio making a hugh come back. My poor husband has not been to work since Walton and Johnson were taken off the air because he can't drive there without their show. We will soon be bankrupt and starving. I hope you pinko communists are happy!

I just can't believe it!! I moved to Houston 15 years ago and remember Stevens & Pruitt. They were the best. That changed to Pruitt, Boner and Greggo. AND then cc changed it all again. NOW this???? There isn't much left for those of us who like rock music from the then and now. A great mix of music. I'm sorry, why change a good thing? There is a saying " If it ain't broke, don't fix it!"

I can't believe this happened, I was out of town and when i got in my car this morning I thought something was wrong with my radio. They were playing some kind of spanish rap!!! I'm so pissed, KLOL was the ONLY great rock station in houston. I miss my walton and johnson!!! This really sucks. But I did hear Wendy on 94.5

Fuck clear channel and their bullshit. Tearing away rock 101 is the dumbest idea I've ever heard of. And who the hell is going to play Metallica? 94.5? No! Fuck clear channel! And Fuck the mexican shit!

If you have not already, please go to www.bringbackklol.com and sign the petition. We are going to deliver this not only online but by email and courier. I may even hand deliver this if I can get enough signatures.

PLEASE GO SIGN!

I know there are many other floating around but with this one I can print it in a format for physical delivery.

I love Walton and Johnson!! It seemed as though they were the last free speech we had on the air waves. What happened? We have sooo many tejano stations its sad. What happened to good old fashioned rock? I have only been a morning listner for about a year and fell in love with Walton and Johnson immediately. I don't understand what happened. Isn't free speech part of the constitution? I feel if you don't want to listen or be a part of free speech than you have the freedom and choice to change the friggin' channel. People have become to politically correct and I think, get over it!! KLOL is an awesome station and I personally don't know what I will do without it. I got married on Saturday, NOv 13th and was really stressed. The only thing I looked forward to was getting up and running my bridal errands listening to the only station that relaxes me and lets me look forward to dealing with all the idiots that the world has reproduced. What is going to happen now? I loved waking up in the morning and getting dressed listening to Walton and Johnson. They made me laugh and made my morning a whole lot better knowing that people were still aloud to speak their mind and it was alright!!! I would rather listen to KLOL anytime of the day than any other station. Please let us have back our Walton and Johnson in the morningand Windy Miller at lunch and Outlaw Dave in the afternoon and Uncle Nasty at night playing Metallica till our troops come home. I don't know what this country has come to but CC sucks the fun out of FREEDOM and FREE SPEECH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I sure hope they hear me and realize I am a devoted fan and listener and my husband as well.
thank you i hope we can bring back KLOL!!
P.S. Thanks for the notice.

I may only be 18 years old, but that makes me a life long listener to KLOL. I was a head banger at mere six months. When my parents divorced, KLOL was possibly the only constant in my life. It has been five days since I turned on the radio and spend fifteen minutes trying to figure out if the cloud cover was screwing up my reception or if hell had truly frozen over. I am still in a state of shock and disbelief over this travesty. Personally, I think violence would solve this problem nicely. A wonderful orgy of violence at Clear Channel headquarters followed by razing it to the ground with the executives still inside. That is just what I would like to do. I am told that I am not a very forgiving person, especially when I feel I have lost a lifelong companion. Farewell KLOL, I hope you come back soon.

And you asses at Clear Channel? Satan has a sleigh ride ready for you in Hell.

well what a concert, everybody who went knew who i was, thats for damn sure. i ran around on the floor, holding my sign up to the stands that said BRING BACK THE REAL 101, jeff bagwell endorsed it. i got at least 5,000 to cheer for me, got a hammett guitar pick too!

well i guess this is a good place to cosider as a petition.... all I know is that Walton and Johnson is the greateast radio program in the world. I now have no reason to wake up before 10am. THEY were the reason I woke up and went to work or school. I'm sure they'll pop up somewhere soon, but in the meantime I seriously am depressed about it all.

Well, regardless of what anyone thinks of Walton and Johnson (I am a fan by the way), the way Clear Channel Communications has handled this is very poor. Clear Channel Communications have completely lost their mind and feel the real waste is their organization.

94.5 has picked up the slack a bit and have started a mandatory Metallica at 10pm and have started playing some rock that it never has before.

Wish we could put together a F**k Off letter to send to Clear Channel.

Unbeliveable, after thirty years, they just drop R&R!!! Boycott Clear Channel, I for one am going to remove all Clear Channel stations. Tune into 89.7 fm, Alvin Community College. They play good kick-ass rock and roll. If possible, also try to receive 106.1, Big Dog, out of Beaumont. They play hard rock, kinda like the old z-rock. Those Bastards at Clear Channel, do not give in to their total domination of the airwaves. Support kuhf, 88.7 and 90.1 kpft. NO more Clear Channel concerts either!!

BRING BACK THE PIT!!! Now we will never here Pantera or metal music on the radio in Houston again thanks a bunch cc. Its sure cold in hell today.

Thanks to freakin' Clear Channel I am almost out of my pain pills!!! To sit here and suffer in silence........
I will NOT turn my radio back on!! Unless of course I find out OUTLAW DAVE is back on!!! Damn if he has to move to get back on the air I am packing my bags!!! He got me through many bad days!! I MISS YOU OUTLAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

aparently clear channels actions speak for them selves. we dont matter to them!!! they took the cowards way out by not announcing their decision, not to mention that is just damned inconsiderate.
I supose that they must not need the support of the former 101.1 listeners well the are never going to get mine!!! i will never listen to a cc radio station again especially 101.1 mexican radion. i hope everyone else does the same. to hell with clear channel!!!!!!!!!

Does any one of yall have a life.

Who are the idiots that thought we needed another latino station in houston? I'll miss Walton and Johnson in the AM it made the commute to work tolerable.
I would like to know where they went.
And for those who didn't like W & J then why did you listen to them?

C.C. You " SUCK " One of the best Rock Staion in the country and you ALL YOU F*&*(&^% IT BAD !!!
I'am 100% Mexican, but I do not lisen to hispanic

WHAT THE HELL??? I JUST HEARD THAT THE KLOL BASH ON DECEMBER 4 AT HUSH HAS BEEN CANCELLED. THAT REALLY SUCKS!!!!

Caleb,
for your information, I am a fourth generation texan and we Mexicans have been here way before Anglo-Americans begin to settle in Texas. Please know your history, you ignorant bastard.

it was a joke, i really didnt mean to be serious with that one, i meant to include that in that post. i apologize. i dont have any disrespect toward any race, i work with hispanics and im hearing from them they wish the real 101 was back and that the new station is stupid. i just wanna shoot myself when they say LATINO & PROUD on the air, makes you wanna go punch him in the teeth.

Hey everyone, if you really want to help get Walton & Johnson back on the air, write or email Cox Radio of Houston and Infinity Radio of Houston and let them know that you would like to see them carry the Walton & Johnson show. Take some action...and boycott Clear Channel radio stations while you're at it!

The truth of the Matter is that hard rock and heavy metal are a dying breed. I am both hispanic and been a rocker all my life and agree with those who are really pissed and dissapointed... But don't take it out on immigration/mi
