Seems Boston.com had most of the ex WFNX DJ's and is starting it's own streaming station:

WFNX, now Radio BDC is live: http://www.boston.com/ae/radio/player/

You can listen to FNX live too at wfnx.com.........the demise of FNX is really painful and has forced me to scan the dial in search of good music....found a station over the weekend that sounded very cool with a lot of alternative music and I was shocked to find out 88.3fm is WRPS (Rockland Public Schools) in Rockland, MA. Obviously it has a very weak signal but I gotta say the station rocks and is all we listen to at home.

Have you listened to WERS 88.9? The Emerson College radio station? They have a really strong signal ... can still get them when I'm all they way out near Wachusett. Good alternative, though a bit on the softer side and only good during the daytime. Weekends are all a Capella and show tunes, blech and nighttime is rap ...

I hadn't listened to WERS until you filled me in on it.....waaaaay coooool, waaaa-loaf!! Needed something to listen to during the workday with a decent signal and WERS seems to fit the bill. WRPS is similiar to WERS in that it depends on the time of the day and the dj for what you'll hear.
Thanks for the tip!

Used to listen to WERS when I lived down there. Definitely miss that station. I think it was Coffee House Rock during the morning commute and Reggae on the drive home. They had some good EDM stuff at night to. BC's station is pretty good, too. I've had some good nights in that station's studio and had a memorable tag team on BTQE2.

I just heard the audio samples from Puscifer's new album. Wow. I'm gonna have to buy that one. The samples from JMK's first Puscifer album were not great, boarding on terrible actually. Conditions of my Parole sounds incredible, I wish I had checked it out sooner instead of assuming more of the same. Through those samples, I also found Slow Motion Addict from Carina Round which also sounded epic. Those those two CDs should be in frequent rotation soon.

Pink Floyd Wish you were here.

Brand new- that's Britt Daniel from Spoon.

The new release from Rush, Clockwork Angels is freaking awesome! Cannot wait for the tour kickoff a week from this Friday in Manchester! And then Boston on October 24!

Just started listening to Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. I had heard of them, but never listened until last week. They are amazing. Also downloaded a couple of albums from The Pixies. Can't believe I never listened to them when I was in college.

I only started listening to them a couple of years ago. The loudQuietLoud movie is good. I wanted to catch them at the Hampton Ballroom last year but it sold out too fast.

They were my favorite band when they were around (and still love them). One of my favorite shows ever was Pixies at the Orpheum, Boston on Halloween 1989(ish). It's amazing how that movie makes them seem like such total dicks...while at the same time making you love the music even more. Joey Santigo is the only one who comes out looking good.

 

[ScottySkis]

They are playing in a few days in NYC.:razz:

New Soundgarden... wow! Wasn't expecting much, reunion bands never seem to recapture much of the original spark. I saw them on their reunion tour before the album and it was a great show. But the same happened with Alice in Chains and their new album was boring. The new Soundgarden album is fantastic. There isn't anything on here that is epic (perhaps my only criticism so far is only one song makes it to five minutes, barely). But it is just 100% solid, both individual performances all around and as a whole. It ain't no Badmotorfinger or Superunknown but nothing will ever be. So far, enjoying it more than DOTUS.

New Soundgarden... wow!

Going to give it a listen, thanks Steve!

Agreed plus the duets she does with Chesney are tantalizing to the ears as well.

Every listen grows on me more and more and I liked it pretty good from the first time!

Disappointed that they are doing a small venue tour, Orpheum sold out on the first day of ticket sales and online scappers (looking at you stubhub) are charging upwards of $120. I'm sure they'll come around again on a bigger venue tour.
