Get ready for sports on the FM dial as “The Rock Of Boston”, the legendary WBCN, fizzles and fades. The once proud station was a pioneering, innovative rock radio oasis that became the cornerstone of a corporate behemoth. To see the devastation, the lack of name and/or talented on-air personalities finally sinking the old ship, is truly sad. The joke in town used to be “Name a band that played last year’s WBCN Rock & Roll Rumble?” with a follow-up - “Name any band that played the WBCN Rock & Roll Rumble??” More recently that joke (which, admittedly, this writer originated) got even more twisted…and telling…as someone asked me to “Name any jock currently on WBCN - 104.1 FM?”
