OK, I have up on the hub (until I need the bandwidth again) the complete top KROQ countdown from 1980-1988.
Only missing one song and everybody by now knows what that one is.

You've done a great thing Jimbo. "Hi Dad, I'm in Jail"...LOL, forgot about that one!

So is having as good as wanting?

Thanks Blir!
Wanting is cool for a while, but having is where it's at. [8D]
I see that a lot of people out there like what I have up on the hub and that makes me feel good to share what I got with them. I just wish I had a faster way of getting this stu

Wozgo sets some new type of data transfer record through the hub. [;)]
That's cool, I'm glad you are liking what you find. [^]

You guys!!! [:I]

Seriously, I am forever in debt to most of the Hubsters - I have DLed some amazing tunes from everyone. For some reason, my DL speed is through the roof lately (over 140Kbs at times [:0])

A BIG thanks goes out to Jimbo for the KROQ

Sorry, but I had to take the KROQ songs off-line for now.
Some of (at least one of) you might be downloading the same songs more than once.
Please do not go in there and just cue up the entire decade, and then sit back and watch the magic happen. That w

To help alleviate the load on Jimbo, people who have successfully downloaded the tracks should re-share them.

BTW, Boy Waiting, Girl Waiting was a joke.

Here's a snippet from Freddie Snakekin about it:

That is so anticlimactic it hurts! Jimbo spent a lot of time looking for that song!

<H3>Boo KROQ!!! BOOOOOOOOOOO!</H3>

"..."Boy Waiting" was a crappy band consisting of some friends of XXXXXX aka XXXX (who I guess also served as the band's manager, although they never went anywhere or did anything)."

" KROQ never played the song in rotation, it only popped up on the air occasionally as a jock's choice (mainly played by you-know-who). Interestingly, for about 4 months near the end of the year he was made "interim" program director -- and guess whose
