The Drive is 10

I remember the debut of the radio format "The Drive" (ten years ago next week) very well. I was working on the competition at the time (Oldies 104.3), and we weren't too concerned.

Boy were we wrong.

Our station is now dead and buried, and they're a rock and roll powerhouse.

Robert Feder has the details on what The Drive is doing for the 10th anniversary next Friday. It's a 17-hour special about the history of rock and roll, and it's locally written, hosted and produced.

With people like Steve Downes, Bob Stroud, Bobby Skafish, Matt Bisbee, and Greg Solk contributing, it is guaranteed to be excellent.

I know I'll be tuning in.
