I guess it was last year that New York's modern rock station (B103?) went to
classic rock, and K-Rock (Still Howard Stern, but now a CBS affiliate) went from
classic rock to modern rock. Odd, isn't it? Philly's alternative rock station
(WDRE) went to R&B when there were like five stations in that format. There's a
good new alternative station, The Max. Any Philly area Connells fans out there?
Call The Max; I bet they'd play the Connells.
 
It's going to be so cool when people start seeing the Connells at shows again. I
bet there will be dozens of stories after each gig!
