Original Entry 10/30: A format change appears to be imminent at Clear Channel Urban “100.3 The Beat” KATZ-FM ST. Louis. A number of newly registered domains are all pointing to the now bare-bones KATZ website hinting at the short-term and long-term futures for the station: Halloween1003.com, STLHalloween.com, Christmas1003.com, STLChristmas.com, and ChristmasSTL.com tease holiday music in the near future, with a permanent flip to Rock on the horizon via Rock1003.com, Rock1003STL.com, and STLRock1003.com. A flip to Rock of any sort will put the station into battle with Emmis’ Classic Rock 94.7 KSHE and Modern Rock “105.7 The Point” KPNT.
please bring back the Sound. Gen X radio is horrible 🙁
I agree!!! Please bring back the Sound! I’ve had to go back to Pandora and satellite radio so I can hear great music like Florence + the Machine. Why the change?
I loved the sound please please please bring it BACK!!!!!!!
I agree. I had 100.3 the sound on my radio at all times, i was glad to FINALLY find a good station. Now i can not even stand to turn 100.3 on. I would almost rather have the beat back.
Agree–Genx sucks! I won’t listen to it anymore. The Sound was a really good station and now it is ruined! And there aren’t many stations to listen to at all. All of my friends spread the word and listened. I thought it was doing well. As one of the on air personalities would say in his feature ‘WTF’ this is now crap.
