i'm told (via text message) that they're playing all Pixies today. i don't have a radio near me so i don't know. |

Not true; they're playing their usual songs, at least today.
Indie 103.1 is a great radio station- I especially love 'Jone's Jukebox', which is an hour show where Steve Jones (of sex pistols fame) plays 'dj' for an hour at noon. They stream over the internet, at http://indie1031.fm/main.html .
They usually play at least one pixies song a day, it seems.. they sound like what KROQ wishes they were. |

it was interesting in the beginning, when there were no commercials. but now it's basically just as bad as KROQ, only with better music.
i can't stand listening to commercials.
hey pinkashtray, didn't you say you worked at Starbuck's in North Hollywood? i'm working over there now. want to give me free mochas? |

kroq used to be in pasadena (you're dating yourself) about ten-fifteen years ago ... they moved to burbank and then moved to south LA ... the license is still listed as pasadena/los angeles so they have to say that at the top of the hour but the studios and offices are long gone from pasadena ...
and Indie 103.1 is partly run by Clear Channel ... Clear Channel handles all the advertising and pays a royalty to the stations owners |

I'll date myself. I went there in 1980 when it was on Los Robles between Green and Cordova. I think it's a dental office now. |

i'm sorry to hear that. if it makes you feel any better, i got fired from a coffee shop job once too. for eating a muffin.
see, we have so much in common. i don't know if i'd go as far as to say we're soulmates.. but almost. |

It's about time some one started an Indie 103.1 thread. Did anyone catch the Indie 103.1 plan at Coachella? With the banner that read "Indie 103.1 We Were Never Here." And yes, Indie is the best radio station I've ever heard in all my years living in the LA county. It's either them or Kroq and you have to be damn near retarded to listen to Kroq. The only station that plans The Pixies and Frank Black. No Catholics yet, but I keep requesting it to see if maybe they will. You guys should start ambushing them with request for The Catholics so they can finally get some air play.
We say we care, but look away. |

Good Idea, darkoutsider. Perhaps we should request one specific Catholics song from Indie? I'm obsessive on most things.. might as well put it to use by calling them continually! |
