KCGL...wow...those were the days. I can still remember when they went off the air then reformed as KJQ. I still have my old pink and black checkerboard KJQ window sticker. lol

I think I've got one of those KJQ stickers somewhere too! I'm gonna have to look for it though.

On a sad note, I had a couple of KJQ stickers and a KCGL sticker taped to the inside my cars' back window. I didn't want to actually stick them to my window because I didn't want them ruined forever. One day I went to school and left my windows open, and they were stolen. [:(]

But I guess that shows how intrinsically awesome those stickers were to have been swiped so quickly! [:D]

I always stuck mine on the back window. I remember driving to the station in Bountiful to get them.

Interesting thing is I always drove a "gearhead/rocker" type of car. So it would suprise some people that I was how I was at the time.

I bet it has been at least 15 years since I heard Calling All the Heroes. Thanks!

As a big IT BITES fan I have to mention, that I've been listening to "Calling All The Heroes" many, many times in the last 15 years. [;)]

Did you know they have an official website (www.itbites.com) and two of the members are involved in a new project named KINO?

If anyone's interested in more IT BITES stuff - especially not from their regular albums - let me know! [8D]

I knew someone eventually was going to have to refer to KCGL and KJQ. I'm still bummed that KJQ 2.0 went off the air again last year, although it was only a shadow of its former self.
