A piece of me would love to be the one to cue up Hank Jr.'s "Whiskey Bent and Hell Bound" as the send off. It does have an on air staff which includes market veteran Scott Sparks in mornings, and Corey Dillon in afternoon drive. Other than that, it's a jukebox.Is the station live and local? Is its playlist locally generated or does the station just do local segments amid a set playlist coming in from somewhere else? If the answer to these questions is negative, I wouldn't be surprised if the last song has no relevance and the on-air talent says nothing.
Personally, the biggest loss in all of this is that "Rowdy Yates" will be off the Houston dial once again.
