Bye-bye B94


Even though my generation is drifting away from the radio, many people I know are sad to see B94 go...again. B94 left us once before in 2004 and returned in 2007 saying they were back for good, unfortunately the station is leaving us seemingly for good. The station is merging with 100.7 and a few of the DJs will be moving over also. Bubba will be joining JR and Shelley in the mornings and Melanie Taylor will be on the air mid-day.

B94 first went on the air in April of 1981 and the first song played was Billy Joel's "You May be Right." The station went off the air in 2004 and was replaced by a Rock station. B94 made it's triumphant return in 2007 with Justin Timberlake's "Sexy Back." The station leaves us once again being replaced by a sports station titled The Fan. The change takes place at 5:30am on February 15th. The last full day to listen will be February 14th.

Who knows, maybe The Fan will have the same fate as the last station and B94 will return to us once again. Will you try out 100.7 or switch to 96.1 or another station?
