KROQ 106.7 FM

Postby Jimbo » Thu Apr 03, 2003 7:12 pm

I am amassing a top 106.7 countdown collection from over the years and I can not find the song "Girl Waiting" by the band "Boy Waiting".

Does anybody know this might be found?

Thanks!

BTW, If anybody needs any 80's music that is considered new-wave, please let me know. I will help.

Jimbo,

I will try to enlist the help of my KROQ-knowledgeable friends Spaz and Eno on this board. I know nothing about this song/band <img src=icon_smile_question.gif border=0 align=middle>

Thank you Mike!

I appreciate the help!

I have been visiting the NW Outpost for about the last 18 months or so.

I am glad to see you have a Board up.

Great job!

I starting listening to KROQ in 1980 (Shadow Stevens, Phast Phreddie, Dusty Street) when I was in 6th grade. I know a little so if you have any questions about songs or bands I'll do my best to help. I stopped listening to it in 1987 so if it's after that

Shameless self-bump!

It's a year later and this song still eludes me.

Hi Jimbo,

I've been doing the same thing for my KROQClassics.com webcast. I'm 238 songs away from completing the chart. The majority of these are not hard to find. I've been purchasing the CDs a chunk at a time.

I did purchase the Boy Waiting 12"

I've been doing the same thing. I am about 100 songs away from having the list completed. I had the same question you did, Jimbo.

And to the person who was looking for the Martini Ranch, I have the entire album on MP3 and would be more than happy to ge

if you can, get yourself on the hub asap. I think I've seen some folks there with that song. There's TONS of great obsucre 80's mp3's that folks have ther, especially stuff that was on KROQ and nowhere else that I know of

Thanks JimmyVee.
I'm on it now and not seeing it. Some with similar names, but not that exact song.

Maybe someday! [;)]

it's an odd name for a label and even odder for two separate labels to share that name. google searching the executive producer of that single may also help you as well. they may still be producing
