Listen up folks, some rumors are worth the spreadin’!
Especially this tasty morsel about the iconic music club CBGB reopening, which closed on October 15, 2006 after lengthy disputes over back rent between owner Hilly Kristal and the Bowery Residents’ Committee.
Hear the show again Mondays at 7pm and Thursdays at 8pm on WBCN.
If you are a New England band, I do want your music. I also want your videos.
Thank you for listening.
It’s good to be back again. Lots going on around town despite the now-seasonable New England temps. Being from outside of Boston proper isn’t a bad thing, not to me. Tonight we took a bit of a road trip
around New England – Boston, Plymouth, Amherst, Northampton,Portsmouth, Portland and Providence and Burlington, VT were all represented.
For more than 20 years, Boston Emissions aired Sunday nights on 104.1fm. In 2009, the show moved to CBS Radio’s sister station, 100.7fm WZLX.
The mission of Boston Emissions is to expose and support independent bands and artists of varying rock styles from Boston and New England.

Patti Smith was all set to take the stage for a private performance at the Hotel Chelsea last night, much to the distaste of many of its residents. Many believed she would be “selling out” and taking the side of the building’s new owner, who is evicting over thirty tenants.
But after hearing of their objections, the “Godmother of Punk” decided it would be best to cancel the show.
Good tidings from the BE team – Anngelle Wood,
Richard Bouchard, John Robinson – and the tiny hats!.
Thank you for supporting Boston Emissions this year.
Show returns Sunday, Jan 1, 2012
with some exciting news and the 20 of 2011.
Favorites poll is up.
Show reairs Monday at 7pm and Thursday at 8pm
on WBCN!
The early days of Damone (L-R: Vazquez, Noelle, Dustin, Dave)
Dustin Hengst of Damone passed away on Thursday at the age of 39. He was loved by many and leaves a lot of friends and fans behind. One of those friends – and bandmate – Bleu posted about the paypal established to assist his family. One never gets used to doing shows such as this nor dealing with such heavy subject matter. The best we can do is be heartfelt and real about it. It sucks.Open Hearts and Open Earholes for Boston Rock Music

Like ‘em or not, the Foo Fighters just know how to put on a great rock and roll show. And part of that is appreciation for the classics and those who came before you.Watch the Foo Fighters cover Pink Floyd
The legendary WBCN was known for its anything-goes spirit. Rock, blues, jazz, politics... WBCN didn't have rules. The "Free Form" nature of the station is back as WBCN's first rock Program Director Sam Kopper brings the spirit of the original WBCN into 2011.
"The NEW Rock Revolution" lives on. If you were a BCN fan from the Howard years on, WBCN: The Rock of Boston is your channel. From Nine Inch Nails to Nirvana, Green Day to Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots to Led Zeppelin. |
