KGB FM 101 5 Radio

how can you rate a radio station you go to the desk sign for your prize and leave i wish they gave tours but since most of them are voice track there is no one there

Only like one in 20 songs played here is by a female artist. They could use the variety and spare us another play of van halen’s Jamie’s crying. That song sucks

Gets me through work, thanks!

«Meh» is a great way to describe this station. This review is based purely on the music selection. I didn’t listen to their morning show, so I have no opinion on that.
I love rock n roll and classic rock, but all the songs they play on this station I’ve already heard thousands of times before. Dream On. Takin’ Care of Business. Bad to the Bone. It seems that the music selection is so thin and shallow that you’re better off just buying one of those mix CD’s that have titles such as «Road America: Essential Classic Rock Hits!»
I’ve heard that maybe the late afternoon DJ plays different stuff. Admittedly my hours for listening to this station usually fall somewhere between 9 and 4, so maybe it gets better after that. I was once driving around 5 and heard AC/DC’s «If You Want Blood You’ve Got It» for the first time on commercial radio. It might have been this station but I’m really not sure. Any chance I would hear that when I’m normally tuned in? Nah. It’s nice to pick up classic rock and whatnot, but this station got really boring really fast. Meh.

I have been a listener of KGB since the early 80’s and I really like this radio station. The DJ’s are all real cool and the music is what I expect to hear from KGB. Too much «Boston» for my taste but the music seems to surprise me most the time.
I like the segment called Brain’s iPod because it pulls a song out of the hat that really takes me back to a time when Rock-​N-​Roll really stood for something, unlike today unfortunately.

Listening to this station really takes me back a lot of the time.
The only drawback is that it’s owned by Clear Channel, but they actually proved to have a positive place in this universe as I see it.
I wrote a review on Rain!, like the weather:
… the same day, I just happened to win tickets to The Beatles Rain Show through the «Brian’s iPod» segment…
Awesome!

well the dsc is gone… i figured they wanted more money and clear channel could not fork it over. so back to classic rock… if you like it there — its for you. i will still listen even though i love shelly dunn. but things happen

I will start listening to KGB again now that the lamest show in radio that used to get played 8 hours a day got the boot. So much of an improvement! It was like someone just picked the dog shit off the floor of your house… a breath of fresh air has just entered the nostrils of San Diego radio!

KGB 101 FM lost me as a listener. Until they bring back the Dave Shelly and Chainsaw show I am boycotting the station. BAD, VERY BAD DECISION to loose the show. I am seriously considering Satalite Radio from now. DSC, Emily, Ruth, and all the others, you will be missed a lot!

I have absolutely no reason to turn on FM radio, particularly KGB, now that the DSC is gone. Stupid, stupid…

now that DAVE, SHELLY and CHAINSAW are no longer on the station, i won’t be listening anymore. :(they were the only reason i listened. back to pandora radio in the morning.

KGB — Just lost most of their listener in the AM and PM with the lose of the DSC Show, a show that has been on the air for 20 years and since Clear Channel took over it has been dragging the station down. You turn on the station and you never know who will be on the air or what they will be playing theses days. It is pretty bad the way it went down for us fans, the show takes a break for the holiday and then Monday Jan 4^th no more show, no good bye. I know contracts can be otugh but to shut them down with a fair well is pretty S*^%$. KGB just lost me and if the DSC show comes back I will listen to the new station. I hope it is local.

All I can say is its about time, I quit listening to them years ago
because they were so lame, after 20 years they did the same olé bits over and over. but that is regular radio, I got Sirius radio and will never go back ! The only thing I am sad for is Chainsaw, he is so funny, he was the ONLY funny thing on that station. Bye Bye Dave and Shelly, don’t let the door hit you in the backside on the way out, also about KGB in general, how many times can you hear stairway to heaven in one day before you go crazy.
KGB has a limited play list and they pound those 100 song into you until you forget there is other music out there

Sad day for San Diego morning radio. The only morning show worth listening to has left the building. Clear Channel took over then ruined San Diego radio.
KGB plus all the other CC stations have been deleted from my presets. Hope the crew lands at another local station soon!

Call me easily amused, but I love the DSC. Its a morning ritual. Expand your horizons negative peeps and lighten the hell up! I’d like to see anyone of yous do a better job. These guys are pro’s, they’ve been doing this since before I was born. Perhaps that’s a slight exageration (excuse my spelling), but you get my point. They are NOT family friendly, if that’s what you want, listen to Jeff and Jer. Who is so egotistical that they can’t stand to listen to an opposing sides’ political views? It makes it interesting to disagree, I think. Besides, that’s not even the point of the show, so why take it so seriously. They’re not professional political commentators. However, all you haters are entitled to your opinions as well, and I respect that. As for the music, classic rock is, well… classic. ‘Nuf said.

Okay, I have to admit it. I love shitty talk radio.
Whenever I feel like I am going to fly off the handle and have road rage because no one understands that the FAST LANE IS FOR GOING OVER 65… I tune into shitty talk radio and numb my brain a little with, as Joe H put it… «Ignorance».
But hey. Ignorance is bliss. And a lot of times just plain funny. Dave Shelly and Chainsaw crack me up. A lot of times I’m laughing at them instead of with them… but hey I’m laughing and laughing increases my endorphins and endorphins keep me from ramming the putt putting Kia in front of me on the 8.
Oh. And Classic Rock rocks. So I gave most of the stars to the music.

101.5 was my first rock discovery in San Diego, so I started out liking. Then I grew up and moved past middle school. I will credit them for plugging my ears to the other popular shit that came out of my generation, but they don’t change it up enough.
There was definitely a point in time where I could guess the next track based on whatever track was playing. It got sad.
And I can’t stand the Dave, Shelly, and Chainsaw show anymore. 4 ignorant conservatives ranting about inane and absurd topics or ganging up on the only liberal on the show, who of course is delegated the News duties.
I can’t stand it anymore. Take it off the air. Just because you like car parts and racing doesn’t make you one of us.

Not really my top choice. I’m more of a 94.9, 91X, 105.3 kind of guy and this station plays stuff thats pretty different. Its still rock but not my kind of rock.
I do however tune in when my other stations are playing stuff that I dont like or its commercials all around.

I enjoy the DSC show in the morning. Some of the bits are kind of lame, such as the Wednesday sins confessions. Bromo is hard to listen too. Is he for real?
I don’t think I could name any of the other djs. But I enjoy the music they play.

Does anybody with a heartbeat listen to this station?
They get three stars for their five star morning show. And that looses a star for toning down after the Divine Miss Jackson bared booby on TV and continuing to this day it’s watered down. Dave Abromowitz? What’s with that guy? The dude is 45. Ruggee on XTRA is just a dumb young fuck. Yet, both are radio stunt monkeys.
The other DJs are shit. I didn’t like Mojo Nixon as a DJ. But, he’s in a dead milkmen’s song. They all belong in a turd bag left out for collection on trashday. Clear Channel still sucks big pole in an unkind manner. Even worse Clear Channel makes you feltch the santorum when you listen.
Don’t know? You’re better off that way.
