Today Santa Monica-based public radio station KCRW divulged the details of the latest addition to their DJ roster. Black Flag front man Henry Rollins, who completed his first radio work nearly twenty years ago at the aforementioned station, will commandeer local airwaves every Saturday from 6 to 8 PM. The big move, of course, comes on the heels of Indie 103's untimely demise in mid-January. It is uncertain what the exact driving force of the decision to sign on with KCRW was. However, it can be surmised that since Indie shuttered—subsequently regressing to an online-only broadcast—its demographic has been severely constrained. KCRW is poised to anoint Rollins during tomorrow's edition of Morning Becomes Eclectic with Jason Bentley.




there's an empty hole in my heart where indie103 used to be :'(
OH AND did Garth Trinidad's car get crushed by that scaffolding that fell in LB? cause during the pledge drive they were all like "Garth can't come in today because his car met with an unfortunate incident but luckily he was in it" and I read about that earlier in the day................. yeah...
wasn't in it****
I remember when Black Flag played a noontime concert at San Pedro High. They were way ahead of their time - a-holes threw apples at them.
And I'm still jonesing for Jonesy.
I can't stand KCRW, but Rollins give such good radio, that I'm gonna have to tune in. He always plays some sweet track by some new band that I just can't get enough of. He's one of the best DJ's out there, really.
Wow--this is awesome. I can't wait for Rollins' tweaky, adrenaline-fueled enthusiam to wake up KCRW's somnambulant weekend afternoons.
