Anyone here from HOUSTON TX who remembers KLOL 101 FM legendary DJ “CRASH”?
I just thought about him out of the blue for the first time in several years after remember ing those cool looking KLOL bumper stickers of the antique radio with feet looking like it was strolling along and the bold KLOL typeface in green!
I looked on the net about DJ Crash to no avail, but did learn that the former rock 101 fm KLOL now spins a whole different genre of music since 2004, pretty much killing off the old KLOL format.
I have not lived in the area for years, but do remember the very distinctive DJ Crash, a.k.a. "Crash in your dash".
I heard rumors about his wild lifestyle befitting a 70's era DJ, and then I seem to recall him getting canned over something related to excess living, and then he showed back up on the air for awhile circa 1986 or so, after that I lost track.
Anyone know what became of the legendary Crash of KLOL fame?
AS for the first guy who responded and claims that Crash is no longer with us, I have no proof and my gut feeling on that answer is he is either just being sarcastic or just spamming for a website. I'd like a link to a story if it is true...but I kinda doubt it as I would have found something myself.
he died. Sorry.
Crash? Not since the late 80s.
klol format is tejano because hispanic stations are leading the market… but outlaw dave and others moved to 103.7 fm. same format.
The worst part about the transition… no warning! You just woke up one day, turned on your favorite morning show, only to hear tejano! It was crazy!
I member him =)
I member Moby also
I do not know if he died but I do remember him.
KLOL has been reincarnated as KIOL at 103.7FM.
When Clear Channel Communications decided to change KLOL to a hispanic station, it caught most people by surprise.
The KLOL dj’s and management teamed up and got KIOL up and running, trying to use the KLOL format. They were doing okay for awhile but recently dropped the Walton and Johnson morning show, popular in many Gulf Coast markets, in favor of some guy who speaks with a spanish lilt in his voice.
They also have done remotes from the International House of Pancakes. So much for the party like a Rockstar stuff they had been known for. I wonder how long it will be before they are running ads for AARP.
