Daybreak's Summer Madness is back
Daybreak will hold a two-day concert in Seoul on July 5-6, said agency Mystic Story on Thursday. This year's show, titled 'Blue,' will be the 11th edition of its annual Summer Madness shows, which began in 2013. The 17-year-old band is hosting "Blue" about six months after its 'Semicolon' concert in December last year. After the two-day performance, Daybreak participated in a series of music festivals and teamed up with the band Lucy in March for their joint show, 'The Player Season 1.' The bands collaborated in 2022 when they dropped singles 'The Answer' and 'Oh-eh.' Last month, the Daybreak released a cover of 'Reminiscence,' the 80s hit song from Sanullim, as part of a project celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Korean rock band.

From many Ben Johnsons to Minecraft and Mario Kart: How NFL teams revealed their schedules on social media
From Minecraft to Mario Kart, plenty of NFL teams had younger fans in mind while revealing schedules in the growing tradition of videos on the social platform X. The Los Angeles Chargers and Indianapolis Colts had Minecraft themes, and both poked fun at a fight in a Starbucks between NFL reporters Ian Rapoport and Jordan Schultz that went viral during the NFL combine this year. should we REALLY make our schedule release video in minecraft? yes yes yesyesyesyes yes yes yesyes yes yes yes yesyes yesyes yes yesyes yesye yes yesyes yes yesyes — Los Angeles Chargers (@chargers) May 15, 2025The winner for comedic effect Wednesday night was the Chicago Bears playing off the common name of new coach Ben Johnson, featuring Emmy Award-winning actor and comedian Lamorne Morris.

Morris pretends to know how to send the email but ends up sending 'the entire schedule to every Ben Johnson on the Chicago Bears marketing list.' The rest of the video is Morris and Bears players, including quarterback Caleb Williams, trying to track down all the Ben Johnsons and destroying computers and cellphones along the way.

KBIQ bids farewell to Southern Colorado listeners
(COLORADO SPRINGS) — A beloved contemporary Christian music station in Southern Colorado, 102.7 KBIQ is signing off after nearly 30 years on the air. In a heartfelt message shared on social media this week, the station expressed its gratitude to listeners for their decades of support. As KBIQ comes to an end, contemporary Christian music fans can take comfort in knowing the station's legacy will continue. This Friday, Jan. 31, will be KBIQ's last day on air, but starting next month, a new Christian music station will take over. 'As of Saturday, you'll tune into 102.7 and it will be K-LOVE, not KBIQ,' said Christopher Gould, General Manager, and Senior Vice President for Salem Media Group. As listeners get ready to say goodbye to their favorite hosts, Gould told FOX21 News the switch was not an easy decision: 'KBIQ has been in the Christian music format since its inception, that's about 30 years ago.' The change comes as Salem Media Group moves forward with three major sales aimed at reducing the company's debt. 'Back in the late 1990s and early 2000, we went to the capital markets to borrow a bunch of money to buy radio stations and we've acquired over 100 radio stations nationwide and that's when we bought KBIQ, KGFT, and KZNT here in our community,' Gould explained. Salem Media Group has sold seven contemporary Christian music stations to the Educational Media Foundation or EMF. 'Not just here in Colorado Springs, but in Dallas, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Cleveland, Portland, and Sacramento,' Gould said. Starting next month, EMF will take the reins bringing K-LOVE's Christian music programming to Southern Colorado listeners. 'That was a very intentional decision that we made in selling these stations across America to EMF,' Gould explained. 'They're very good programmers of Christian music and so you'll still have great Christian music flowing through 102.7 after we made the sale, which is very important to us.' For nearly 30 years, KBIQ fans have supported the station through many events like the Walk For Life at Memorial Park, raising money for non-profits in the region. Of course, the station's mascot, Marty the Moose, was at every event. 'That work of partnering with local Christian organizations has been all the joy of our lives and that will continue with the other radio stations that we have,' Gould said. While KBIQ is signing off, its sister stations will continue to serve Southern Colorado. KGFT 100.7 will keep broadcasting faith-based programs like 'Focus on the Family' with Jim Daly, and KZNT 'The Answer' will remain on the air. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
