Rock n Roll Boston!

So the rumors have it. I could care less. I stopped listening to WBCN in the 90s. They may have at one point possessed a varied and interesting play list accompanied by cool and witty DJs, but not anymore. Metallica, Pearl Jam, and Sublime dominate their airwaves and after Howard Stern left, not one WBCN DJ has a funny bone in his or her body. Hopefully this will mean Boston alt rock station WFNX will gain WBCN’s listeners. I am sorry for those DJs who will lose their jobs and for the loss of WBCN’s Boston music show Boston Emissions. 

Apparently WBCN is moving to Mix 98.5′s spot and turning into an all-sports station. 98.5 is, in turn, replacing WBCN at 104.1. Who cares. Head on over to Emerson College’s station at WERS 88.9 or WFNX at 101.7 for some actually decent tunes.
