Not just the website, but the station has flipped, too, even playing Beyonce this morning.
My guess is it's not a joke.

They just had a liner ripping Kiss 108 and then a promo saying the new all hits Power 104 and they're now playing Love Lockdown by Kanye West.

Earlier they said something like "ripping the lips off Kiss."

"Single Ladies" by Beyonce into "My Life Would Suck without You" by Kelly Clarkson
Sounds like the real deal and not an April Fool's stunt but who knows. Remember WBRU "flipping" to Buddy FM a couple years back.

Have WBCN ever done any actual April Fools stunting before?
Were the Duane Glasscock bits ever April Fools?
I doubt today will be the big cume day. It will be TOMORROW when everyone will be listening. And THAT would be a truly great gag.

And aren't Thursdays usually when ratings books close? and changes made?
If this is a stunt, it was well-planned as far as placement within the week. Of course the calendar helped a little.

Make no mistake. It's a bit.
Show me any Rock station that kept its staff after flipping to Top 40?
Although...KROQ have moved some of their people over to AMP. So....

Paul I'm surprised you don't remeber the "Fools Parade's on Boylston Street. Where people would actually show up occasionally with lawn chairs to see the floats that didn't exist.

DAMN!...I actually stole that bit in New Orleans too. Apparently I'm old. The Old-timers must be setting in.

And now in the 9 o'clock hour "The Rock of Boston" is back.
I'll admit, it was a great joke.
And I didn't really think Hardy was going to have the Jonas Brothers, either. That would have been something.
