Keith & Kerry from "The Q" radio station
I'm not sure if anyone here listens to 92.1 and 100.1 "The Q", but it has been my radio station of choice since moving here. The "Keith and Kerry" morning show has kept me laughing on a daily basis, but yesterday when I tuned in, it was all Beatles music. I figured it was some sort of Beatles Tribute Day, until I did some further research and found out they have changed the format and Keith and Kerry have been fired! 
I just wanted to pass along the contact information for anyone like me who is unhappy with the change and wants to leave comments about the new format (Beatles 24/7...ugh! Not that there's anything wrong with the Beatles...but 24/7??).

I did notice a lot of Beatles when flipping through the stations yesterday...and the Q is on my presets in the car. 24/7 Beatles? I don't mind the Beatles, but I don't know how far an all-Beatles station will go... I liked the Q the way it was...not as heavy and negative as a 97.9X, but not as old-farty as a Magic 93.

Exactly! It had a nice balance of music. That's why i'm hoping they will reconsider if they receive a lot of complaints. There is no way this "Beatles Radio" will survive, so hopefully they will bring it back if enough people speak up. |

Do we really need another station for the geriatric crowd? It seems all the stations in this area cater to either people in their teens-to-early-twenties or older people. There's not much on the radio for people in their late-20's and 30's. The Q kind of bridged that gap with a lot of music from the 90's and had a little more rock than stations like Magic 93, without being as heavy as a 97.9X. |

I agree, being in my early 30's, The Q played just the right kind of music.
But, I guess the advertisers don't think we spend money like kids and seniors.
They are probably right, trying to raise a family these days is hard. IMO, kids and seniors have more disposable income |
