WBCN's Last Day

[Laurence Glavin]

I have a great idea for WBCN's last day: do what the original WBCN did once-a-year...run the entire four-opera Ring Cycle by Richard Wagner from first note to last! A true "Goetterdammerung".

I'm all for it if they drop Duane Glasscock saying "hello Rangoon" in every few minutes.

CBS has to bring Charles back for one last farewell for old time BCN listensers.

"Duane" was talking by phone with Sam Kopper on his WATD show last night.

Knowing your favorite station will change formats soon is bad. Not being able to do anything about it (donate money to the station to save it) is worse.

Bring in "the best of Billy West" That mans comedy was a hoot! all the old spoof spots, "Dick Mcgiver toll taker for the turnpike, Fred University. Bank of Fred who could forget "Rosie from Rahveeah? and all the other great bits that kept us all rolling on the floor...

It's out of season, but Billy West's "Christmas in Kenmore Square" was a good one.

Definitely the time has come for everyone to return for a day or weekend.

T&R said that they will be off the air for a few days before the switch when WBCN does a farewell and they said that Laquidara might be in studio.

Now that's it's getting closer and closer to BCN's demise, it is kinda sad, a part of me will miss them.

Hopefully they spice it up on the last day and get creative, and get some famous people to "blow up" BCN out of 104.1

Real day, I have many memories of WBCN during it's hey day. Bring back D.I.G.

What time will "the flip" happen?

Donate personal money to save a failing major-market commercial CBS-owned white elephant of a station???

With the expenses of your average major-market full-power commercial station, that would take a lot of continuous big-money donations to keep it going on listener support. This isn't the one-man operation automated WJIB!
