you can sign the HFS petition

Should read
To: "The Man"

We, the 15 year old people of Rockville, Maryland, believe the change of 99.1 HFS, the greatest Linkin Park-centric Rock station in Maryland to 99.1 EL Zol, Siempre De Feista, meaning "always of celebration" (I learned that in Spanish 2 last week) playing spanish music. They can't even get the station in Spain, what gives?!?!?! HFS has provided the adolecent community with sounds and inane chatter regarding Slipknot, the well know "HFSestival-themed High School Drunkfest", and many other gatherings. Many people are disapointed about the change, and were surprised the station was still around since everyone stopped listening when they started playing 'Jane Says' on heavy rotation. The white people of Maryland believe a Spanish station will not do well in this area aside from every restaurant kitchen. We would like the owners of the station, please, revise your decision as soon as possible.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned Morons

Who knew that only Mexicans spoke Spanish…

oh, and it's not "always of celebrating"…it's "always celebrating". But don't listen to me, I'm not Mexican so hence I don't speak spanish…guess I speak Quisqueyan or some other dialect..

6382. Matt C. Como estan b i t c h e s… All spanish music sounds the same

Where are the parents?

whoever wrote that petition did a pretty poor job wording it.

"We, the people of Maryland, believe the change of 99.1 HFS, the greatest alternative Rock station in Maryland to 99.1 EL Zol, Siempre De Feista, meaning "always of celebration" playing spanish music."

he didn't even finish that sentence.

Speaking seriously for a second.

did Infinity perhaps just increase racial tension in the Baltimore/DC area by taking a large part of a lot of people's lives and giving it to a minority without warning?

I,sadly, have not read the petition. Is this petition to keep the old station OFF the air??? Is so…count me in!!

Only among 15 year olds. The remiander understand that if you're ranked in the bottom 25% of the market share, you are the minority.

The without warning part is common practice in radio turnover.

15 year olds now, 25 year olds in 10 years.

i mean some ppl may really take this seriously.

and its the younger ages that are more easily influenced on stuff like that.

of course there's a market for another spanish station, half of my neighbors are from el salvador. i rarely listen to the radio so i'm happy the hispanic/latino crowd is getting a station. besides, merengue is fun. i like me some elvis crespo every now and then.

I think we need to be vigilant and look out for the 15 year old white kids because they're probably quite vulnerable at this time to neo nazi recruiting. The rest of the people making the ignorant comments were already racially biased from the beginning. Now they finally get a forum to express themselves!

Have you listened to the new HFS? The new music almost sucks ass harder than the old music, if it were only possible.

So do you have any Spanish recommendations?

Pottery Barn CDs. There is no hope for you.

That's what my wife said, until she listened to the cd. Then she listened to it and applauded my purchase very loudly.

No, I haven't listened to the new HFS. I was commenting on what Ally White said, "Spanish music sux ass!"

If you want to toss genres and culture out the window and make it as generic as possible, then yes, the new HFS plays Spanish Music.

I might have to side with Rhett and his wife on this one. That's an excellent compilation of contemporary Latin Jazz.

As far as I could tell in my few listens a lot of the music sounds pretty different, the unifying thing being the language it was sung in…..
