Any local stations that play almost all 1990s music?

Okay, I understand the "classic" and "old school" format. And maybe there has never been an all-eightes station. But I feel like the young Gen X and Echo generation are kinda getting the short end of the stick when it comes to, well, everything, but especially a chance at some real nineties nostalgia.

I am curious if there are any radio stations (I don't mean podcasts or satellite) in your local area that make a point of aiming at this demographic and giving us non-stop 90s hits.

Never heard of one. Eighties stations tend to fail too. Ours went from 80s to 80s rock and now it's uptempo current top 40.

I just don't get why the baby boomers are the only ones catered to.

Here in Philly we have Boom 107.9 that plays 90's Hip Hop & R&B along with some early 2000's cuts from that same genre.

It's one of my favorite stations because it caters to my junior high-high school-early 20's years, GREAT TIMES!! biggrin
