I'll miss WLHS's dogged pursuit of playing new, interesting music bookended by apathetic teenagers showing the absolute maximum level of ennui and the absolute minimum level of connection with their audience. Sure, the resolute denial of anything that could date their show got old sometimes as did their gallows humor at playing another exciting PSA, but I'll miss the music.
Give a listen while they're still around - and hopefully when they get their new internet-only station up and running in the fall.

Another one bites the dust, and like those long ago WOXY t-shirts, corporate radio still sucks.
So says the guy who worked for his high school station for 2 years, of course I was there 3 years.
As much as I loved played basketball and tennis, I'd have to say that the time working the radio station was as much fun as I had in high school. And if I wasn't working, having it flipped on to listen to you and Wayne.
Katydid - It's sad to see this one drift away, but I at least know it's not corporate radio taking it over. And there's the fact that they'll continue to exist online makes things a little better even if I can't listen to that in the car...yet.
Ame - Yeah, you were, indeed. I was the station music director my senior year. Top that.
Sully - The radio station was absolutely wonderful for lots of us.
