If you tuned into Mix 97.3 last weekend, it was all Huey Lewis for hours and hours and hours on end. Sure, we like The News as much as anybody, but what gives?
Looks like they decided to bring back a staple of the Siouxland 80s FM dial: KKRC 97.3. They’re now playing the greatest hits of the 80s, with a few of those 70s and 90s songs that sat on the cusp of the decade thrown in for good measure.
How will this shake out? Time will tell. Local radio will always deliver something you can’t find on a satellite mix, let a lone Spotify, so we’re glad to see them keeping the local vibes alive.
But as anyone who live through the 80s knows, it was half awesome and half awful. Will they be playing the fun stuff, or the drek? Will it be more Karma Chameleon or more Kokomo?
We’ll be spinning the dial to find out!
