WTIX: STILL A HORRIBLE STATION

The Bay City Rollers??? C'mon, there's a case of arrested development running that pitiful station.

Also the station in general, and the morning abortion in particular, are BOOOOOORING! Take away "What's happenin' " and midday soul Hot Rod wouldn't have anything to say.

And as far as the registered sex offender...that's another story just waiting to be told.
 
hes probably referring to the supposed gay actions of the owner? i like tix fm. only good station in new orleans. and i like the bay city rollers...and the osmonds and donny and marie ;D :eek:
 
The registered sex offender thing was referring to a recent news story heard on the radio.
 
I *loved* WTIX-FM. Always considered it a treat when I lived in Ocean Springs and conditions were good enough to hear it above the splatter from our local on 94.5.

Two reasons for my affection: 1) They didn't sound like every other "Good Times and Great Oldies" station on the dial.

2) They were locally owned and operated.

For a rimshot from Galliano, I think they did pretty well. As for the Bay City Rollers, don't forget they were a huge act for those 2 years between late 1975 and late 1977. "Saturday Night", "Money Honey", "I Only Wanna be with You", and "The Way I Feel Tonight" were bonafide hits.
