BUMMER >>>
As a kid who grew up in Puyallup smoking weed out of Mountain Dew cans and requesting songs off Weezer's Pinkerton record (along with plenty of Murder City Devils and Supersuckers) on KGRG, 89.9FM - Green River Community College's radio station - this email pained me to receive today ...
After 22 years of playing Today's Rock and 36+ years on the air overall, 89.9 KGRG-FM, Auburn, will be shutting down its aging transmitter this afternoon, Thursday, April 7th, at 3pm PDT. On behalf of all the broadcasting students and our staff, we thank you and our audience for the support over the years.
Tune in 89.9FM (also streaming live audio at www.kgrg.com) at 3pm PDT today as we wrap up an historic chapter in college broadcasting. Long live Today's Rock!

Although KGRG-FM shut down its aging transmitter forever, KGRG-FM was only temporarily lost to its listeners. About two minutes later, the station signed back on as "The All New KGRG-FM, Today's Rock in Digital HD!" .... and began transmitting in their brand new Digital HD format! :-)
