Looks like the "ZIPPIES" went back to the old classic top 40. Remember the first change to the "NEW KZPS" not really any change, but they were doing a format something like this:

"THE NEW KZPS, THE CLASSIC ROCK STATION"

"THE NEW KZPS, THE CLASSIC ROCK STATION"

"THE NEW KZPS, THE CLASSIC ROCK STATION"

"THE NEW KZPS, THE CLASSIC ROCK STATION"

"THE NEW KZPS, THE CLASSIC ROCK STATION"

REPEAT, REPEAT

This crap is still on the air. They are playing as many commercials now as any other station. Some car commercial ended and now a Kmart commercial is running.

As least Bo and Jim talk about stuff that other stations featured a week or two ago. They are the cutting edge of last week.

Well, so much for no commercials. They play the red neck Rodeo Ford commercial. What-a-burger commercials every 5 minutes and all the crap they have the on-air no-talent read.

Was back home in Dallas about a month ago and tuned in to what I thought was the old classic rock KZPS and low and behold I heard Jason Isbell, Son Volt, Drive by Truckers, Willie, Pat Green, etc. I was amazed. I never turned it to anything else. I live in the Muscle Shoals area of Alabama, where Jason and the DBT's hail from and I couldn't believe what I was hearing. They don't hardly play em here at home. Keep up the good work!

I am 25 yrs old and I really enjoyed listening to the old classic rock music. I like listening to country as well but there are more than enough country stations out there. Why would they decide to take away one of the few classic rock stations? It's ridiculous!

It's great, I live in Pittsburgh and was in Ft. Worth last week for work. I found 92.5 and never changed the station the whole time I was there. Now that I'm back home its'streaming on the computer where ever I'm at. Also found the Stockyards.... great place.

This new station format is a joke,cornball redneck country is not real music, Rock and Roll lives forever,too bad KZPS 92.5 sold out to the Jerry Springer trailer trash listeners.

This could be a life changing event.
Listening to *MUSIC* on fm again without having to drive 120 miles in any givin' direction.. goodby NPR, I'll still check in from time to time.
Mornings with Fox and friends, the volume down and the radio on... still get the squirrel shots.
Evenings on the back porch with a cold beer and the radio, in anticipation of what might come next.... Beats hell outa flippin' between IFC and the hitory channel tryin for a fix.

Gonna have to enjoy it while it lasts.. corporate will fuck this up

Dont change a thing. If the old 92.5 fans dont like the new format they can always get BONEd.

Another flashback? Didn't think too much of it (the format change) at first but I've always loved the "hill country" music - can't stand the eastern version of country. And still playin' Clapton, Charlie Daniels, SRV, Skynard - dang - I'm going to have to start checking the ashtray for roaches again!

This station went from one of the BEST to the SUCKIEST bunch of sucks that ever sucked.

WTF is up with the "format"?!?!? I have to sit through a dozen or so completely obscure pieces of CRAP in order to hear one halfway decent tune now.

This is the epitome of corporate MORONS thinking they know what is best. Well, at least there's still 93.3 THE BONE. If Walton and Johnson would just kill off that tranny sounding character on their morning show, they'd be the perfect station.

Finally a local station playing music I Haven't known all the words to for the past 40 years. I own 3,000 plus albums and enjoy variety. I find it refreshing to hear seldom played music. Yes they are a bit redundant but give 'em time and any successful business will listen to CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. Give them a chance,
Rome wasn't built in a day. What's up with trashing Hank Jr.??? More importantly doesen't anybody know enough words to say something more profound than "It sucks"!! Is everyone stuck in a rut. I guess many local listeners would prefer to hear Led Zepplen, Aerosmith, ZZ Top, Floyd etc. over and over again and then think the new format is repetative. If classic rock and roll is what they truly want then what happend to Robin Troyer, Pat Travers, Moxy, and others like Frank Moreno and Mahogany Rush. They rarely if ever played any of them. As for me a little John Mayall never hurt anybody considering I'm sick of Iron Butterfly.

Way too late comming to Dallas. I used to surf around trying to find something good to listen to. My station hasnt changed since you changed format.

Not crazy about the change. Miss the classic rock!!!! I'm searching for a new station!

It's about time this made it's up to the metro-mess. Nothing new about the format. It's been a staple down in the hill country where some semblance of independent radio still lives.

Best radio station I've heard in TX. Hell, best radio station I've heard ever.. and it kills me to support Clear Channel, but at least they are finally putting out something worth listening to.

I have SIRIUS in my car and it's been off for almost a week.

PS.

Classic rock is dead, get a life you stinking boomers and johnsers.

I miss Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones (recent stuff)Foreigner but I like JD being on during the day and at lunch. I can certainly do without Hank Williams, Jr. I would like to hear Poco, Souther-Hillman-Fury and some of the other mid 70's stuff. I can't decide for sure if I like it yet, but I'm giving it a shot. I have listened to JD since 1972 or 73...even back to KFAD!
