For those of you who remember, or if you're just curious, Rockin' in Quad has updates on two KQIV 106.7 pioneers. Dick Jenkins recalls the very first days, and we have a current photo of Steve Shannon.

More Rockin' in Quad

Submitted by J. R. Miller on Mon, 02/27/2006 - 2:27pm.

Hey, if you'd like to take a little break from today's topics and controversies, head over to the Rockin' in Quad Blog and check-out some new stuff from the good ol' days!

Find out how KQIV decided on its call letters. What exactly was the Ivy Club? We said we were "Rockin' in Quad" but some called it "Rockin' in Fraud." Why were they so mean? And, was there really a "curse of the black roses"?

Enjoy!
