Cumulus Media's Rock WNNX-FM/Atlanta marks 30 years on-air on Wednesday, as WNNX launched as 99X on October 26, 1992. 99X would go on to become one of the most influential Alt-Grunge-Rock stations of the 90's and early 2000's. The iconic WNNX call letters are now the anchor for Rock 100.5 and the station carries on the legacy of bringing Atlantans the best new Rock, along with the Alt-Grunge and Rock that helped define its historic past.

To celebrate the station's 30th anniversary, Cumulus Atlanta has launched the 99X Interactive Museum at 99x.com, containing content from the early days of 99X -- including photos from the early 90's and streams of the legendary LiveX performances from Chris Cornell, Dave Matthews, R.E.M., Lenny Kravitz, Smashing Pumpkins and more.

WNNX-FM Program Director and afternoon host Axel Lowe said, "30 years later, Atlantans still talk about the music, live events and on-air memories that 99X brought them during the 90's. The 99X digital museum is a great way to relive some of those memorable moments."
