As a guy growing up in Bsoton in the 80's I've got to agree. Charles 
Laquedera (not his real name) was a great DJ. As were a bunch of the 
80s crew from BCN, FNX, CGY, ZLX, and a couple of the really obscure 
college stations.

Unfortunately Charles is a pedophile. He is currently on trial for 
molesting a 12 year old boy.

I used to know Jimmy Jay, Brooks Whelen, Maritn Fine, and a bunch of 
other Boston music scene producers, program directors dj's etc... A lot 
of really cool people used to work there. Not anymore. Eveyrones either 
out of the business, moved markets, or crushed by the effort of 
resisting the utter shit they have to play.

And radio in Boston has gone to complete shit. BCN and ZLX just dont 
exist anymore (as far as Im concerned), FNX changed formats, and CGY 
lost its funding (it was a college station with semi-private funding).

Radio in Ireland is, in a word, shite.

Utter shite

Perhaps, Camel Shite

But anyway some kind of vile, foul smelling shite
