They are the most musically narrow-minded bunch of assholes ever. Where's the Pixies? Where's the Liz Phair? How about some Metal other than Metallica? They have zero imagination.

There is no way that KROQ there is the same as KROQ here.... here it's pretty much Green Day, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Sublime, etc....
Here is the best "Kroq music" of for the year...

I'd love to have a station in LA that plays Metallica, Liz Phair, all that... we don't even get to listen to that...
Indie 103.1 is just the latest of a long list of EPIC stations that have gone down the tubes due to being bought out by bigger "Communication" enterprises. KLOS, KNAC, etc...
Don't even let the playlist I listed above fool you, if it's good music, it was played on Indie 103.1 months before KROQ ever started playing it.
I remember KROQ in the 80's.. it was a good station, maybe even in the 90's but once it was bought out by the majors and sent all over the nation... CRAP.
Back in the 80's....
I used to listen to Rodney on the ROQ
