silverthorneThe Eagle is back!
Back in 2004, Clearchannel (the bastards) had taken over 97.1 The Eagle and replaced it with 'Sunny'...which, for those of you who were around can recall, pissed me off. Not because I don't like things like Elton John and Christopher Cross (I do, actually), but because it was yet another station like that, in an area where a good rock and roll (nevermind metal) station is hard to find.
Well, when the soft rock/elevator music didn't do it for them, they replaced that with a spanish station (no problem there, except that there are already six other spanish stations that, quite frankly, do it better. And yes, I know this for a fact too, because I have two on my own radio after months of listening to all of them to find the ones I liked). So, finally, as of yesterday, they're back to their old format that the Eagle, and 97.1, had been known for for years. Dallas area metalheads and hard rockers rejoice! We have our station back!
