I hate the format change as well.  My wife and I loved listening to the AT 40's on the weekends.  Took us both back to our youth.  I listened to Kevan Seal every morning and Kool 106.1 all day at my desk at work. 
I sent an email a several days ago to the new program director Don Christi, per the website.  I know he read the email because I got the read receipt back, but there was no response. 
Shows how much they care about the listeners. 
I found an email address for Kevan.  I sent one to him too.  I hope he reads it.  He is missed!!! 

Yes, we still listen to radio.  Not everyone is owns mp3, etc.  LONG LIVE RADIO!!!

Clear Channel has registered genxtulsa.com. Apparently a clone of the gen-x station in Louisville - genxlouisville.com. No local presence, pre-programmed garbage. No surprise. KQLL still sucks.

That was to usher in their new 90's format.
They kicked it off with a song by Kurt Cobain, the artist who blew his brains out.
Im sure there's nothing prophetically ironic there...

How can "alternative" music be alternative if it's become so mainstream with multiple stations in each market?

Just a label that stuck.  There are a lot of other words that have meanings totally different than when I last bought a dictionary.

Well Im done then.
Possibly the worst decade of music ever. I know that Im sounding like my Father, but the 80s at least had bands with talent.
Music I could listen to without having to turn down the sound.
Screaming to two chords and unable to understand the lyrics is not talent to me. Not even drunk or high.
Changing opinions one mistake at a time.

I listened this morning and what I heard was this:

Tone Loc - Funky Cold Medina
Some generic female ballad whose name I forgot
Bon Jovi - Livin on a Prayer
Alanis Morrisette - You gotta know

Ads were mainly national canned stuff but they did have local ads from River Spirit Casino and Mark Miller Pontiac?/GMC and no DJ but a canned traffic report that was done locally.

I'm glad to be able to hear '90s music again. I missed the fun and silliness of power-pop and Euro-dance, and I gladly welcome it back. Some of the other '90s music (Backstreet Boys, Aerosmith, and so on...) I could do without.

You just put Backstreet Boys and Aerosmith in the same bucket.

That kind of statement generally not good for your own wellbeing..

You didn't know he was the original keyboardist for Flock of Seagulls?

He was, but then he ran. He ran so far away.
