“the future of rock and roll”

I meant to post this a while ago, but kept forgetting… for those of you who are or were in Cincinnati or Oxford, 97X is going “internet only”. It will be a bit of a bummer when travelling north and not being able to listen, but I “tune in” mostly on the ‘net anyway cuz I can’t get decent reception here. They’ve posted more details on the whys and whats. Maybe they’ll go to XM or Sirius - then I’ll spring for satelite radio for sure!

For those who don’t know, 97X (aka WOXY) is and has been the best radio station ever since 1983. I think I started listening on occasion back in ‘85 when I became a fan of Depeche Mode and they also used to have Doctor Demento on Sunday nights back then.

And yes, it is the station Dustin Hoffman quotes in the movie “Rainman”.

    hey, Pat–you mention WOXY. Do you ever get on the messageboards there? A few of us have started our own website in preparation if the WOXY boards go offline as well.

    We just went live Friday (4-30)–if you’re on the boards, you already know about it.

    I like your blog–I’m trying to decide whether I want to leave the Xanga community. lata!
