I began my professional radio career at WFNX, first as an intern in 1997 and as a DJ in 1998.  I stayed for nearly 7 years . During that time, I fell in love with so many Boston bands, saw awesome shows, did amazing things and met incredible people. This week’s  news has a lot of us all twisted up. This is for all of you who still think music matters.
