Archive for the Airchecks: Boston - WBCN - The Rock Of Boston! Category
This was the station that I grew up listening to. I'm proud to say I got to work for them. Two hours after being fired by WAAF, WBCN gave me a job! Born in 1968...one of the first Rock stations in America. The station is gone now. It is one of the tragedies of the radio business. I have friends that

WBCN Boston: Afternoon Fill-in Guy
In a legitimate attempt to answer the eternal question: "Who are the biggest geeks of all-time (Star Wars? KISS? Narnia? Harry Potter?) Here's an example of yours-truly, doing an afternoon shift on WBCN. It was always awkward to fill in on 'BCN. Because everyone there knew I needed a full-time job,

WBCN Boston: Generic Saturday Night
When I worked for WBCN, I wasn't really doing a show. I was their swing guy. I filled in everywhere, and they didn't have a full time slot for me. So, I'd show up at all times of the day.

WBCN Boston: Generic Saturday Afternoon
Here's me working a weekend shift on WBCN in Boston. This station is no longer there. But, at the time it was the Patriots flagship broadcast station. So...we made a big deal out of it. As a Raiders fan, this was acting at its best :) Click Radio To Listen
WBCN Boston: Generic Overnight Blabber
When I worked for WBCN, the Program Director actually asked me if I'd have a problem filling in on an overnight shift. I was like "HELL NO!" I get to screw off at night?...I'm in. So, here's what a typical 3rd shift on WBCN sounded like when I was there. Some nights were busier than others. This
