WOXY, You Will Be Missed

As I wrote a couple of weeks ago, one of the best radio stations anywhere, WOXY in Cincinnati, is going off the air on Sept. 15. I found these folks just a few months ago but quickly became a regular listener.

Why will I miss them? They play stuff no one else does. This afternoon they went back-to-back-to-back with:

1. Guillemots, "Go Away"
2. The Jam, "That's Entertainment"
3. The Walkmen, "The Rat"

It ain't every radio station in the world would play that particular set of songs in that particular order.

Update: And then about an hour later, they went B2B with:

1. Badly Drawn Boy, "Born in the UK"
   
2. The Police, "Born in the 50s."

Okay, yes, it's hokey. But cut them slack - it's their last day on air. And when was the last time you heard that Police song on the radio?
