WHAT'S GOING ON (During Labor Day Weekend)

It's the last days of New Wave Summer on KJRW.  There were more streams launched in August than in July, but less time spent listening to the station.  Our rank among the rock stations on Live365.com climbed a few notches, but dropped a bit overall.

Your favorite New Wave Summer song was the Boomtown Rats' I Don't Like Mondays.  Your favorite songs at the end of August were:

1. Who Was In My Room Last Night? - Butthole Surfers
2. Prison Bound - Social Distortion
3. Pigs In Zen - Jane's Addiction
4. I Don't Like Mondays - The Boomtown Rats
5. The Impression That I Get - The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
6. Take Me To Your, Leader - The Pudz
7. Sliver - Nirvana
8. Phenomena - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
9. Pablo Picasso - The Modern Lovers
10. One Way Or Another - Blondie

People listened to KJRW the most in the United States, Canada, Colombia, Mexico, Indonesia, Australia, Spain, Brazil, New Zealand and Italy.
