Sid must be rolling over in his grave.
Modern Rocker XTRA (91X) in San Diego has a new on-air ambassador for the station - John Lydon, a.k.a. “Johnny Rotten,” of the Sex Pistols
He will become the new voice of 91X and share “Rotten Moments,” with the audience. “I am pleased and pleasantly surprised that 91X -- which used to be a stunningly good radio station -- is now going to be a stunningly good radio station once again,” Rotten says. “I’ve had good bleedin’ memories with (91X) and I’m telling you, it just might have a chance to be as good as it once was.”
Rotten is another in a string of recent on air changes that have seen former market vet Marco Collins return as MD/afternoons, Kallao inserted into nights, the return of the long-running San Diego institution “Music Without Boundaries,” hosted by Kenny Weisberg, on Saturday mornings (7 a.m.-9 a.m.).
"These changes are designed to demonstrate that 91X is fully committed to becoming a great station for San Diego once again," said 91X VP/Programming Kevin Stapleford. "Since we are newly independent, we have the ability to really mix things up--and that's what we're going to do."
91X will kickstart the new year with a free 21-and-over concert on January 29 at Brick by Brick featuring up-and-coming U.K. artist Hard-Fi.
