Rather than putting it on ebay, I would rather just get the $10 plus shipping ($4) and be done with it possibly here. Seems that this would be the best way.<br /><br />I sure miss those FM broadcasts back in the day from Gusman Hall and other venues. Was truly sad when both GTR and SHE went down the toilet.<br />Music from the 60's and 70's will always remain my faves.<br /><br />God Bless,<br />Steve (bidelmst@protonmail.com)flasteve1957https://www.blogger.com/profile/08784294832339550593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3428496999067068217.post-71810278733313994422023-03-22T12:03:29.887-07:002023-03-22T12:03:29.887-07:00OK folks!

Does any one remember a 97 GTR Guitar? I found it. It's 6 feet long and the station logo without the monkey. But it's a working guitar built into the logo. The headstock says Designed by Paragon Music inc. Its called the Nitro. I've got photos if anyone is intrested.Evan Turnau N.T.S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08856592523308435477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3428496999067068217.post-54439712834643149372022-08-15T12:37:00.918-07:002022-08-15T12:37:00.918-07:00Back on those days I was student at UM.

I moved to Fort...Hey Madman Mike...I remember you. I moved to Fort Lauderdale from New Orleans in 1988, and all I listened to was GTR. You guys were awesome !! Having just moved to FL, you and the morning crew made me feel at home. One of my fondest memories was with Patty Murray. GTR was doing some radio event and promoting something. I was there with some friends and Patty was the life of the party. I remember her wearing a candy necklace and if she liked you, she let you have a piece of candy from her necklace. Of course by the end of the night it was nothing but a string haha. That coming weekend I tuned in to GTR. The morning crew was crying on the radio talking about Patty Murray's memorial....I couldn't believe it, but it was true. Thank you and the morning crew and everyone at that station forgive me such a fond memory even today, years later. I came across your blog and I just wanted to reply. Fond memories...thanks bro !!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00841842463747396606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3428496999067068217.post-49460876884923498792014-07-06T15:20:49.616-07:002014-07-06T15:20:49.616-07:00I still have my CD.

Some of you may know me as 'Stinky' as Herman & McBean more commonly referred to me as. lol As King of the "Kong Krew" and the primary driver of the infamous 97GTR Ford Aerostar van, I attended the vast majority of station events.<br /><br />Certainly glad to be amongst fellow fans and friends of the station! Would love to hear some more stories of the good ol' days of GTR ..
