Kane-O Hits 4-0 At WCMF
RAMP last celebrated Kane-O’s already impressive longevity back on Feb. 22, 2016, when he marked his 35th anniversary with the station. “I’ve always said that I am blessed to have found a job that I love to do in a place where I love to do it,” Kane said. “My longevity in Rochester is testament to the quality of life here, and certainly most of all, to the dedicated Rockers who have not only supported WCMF for over a half century, but who have fostered and sustained a vibrant Rock & Roll scene in Rochester for decades.”
Due to ongoing COVID protocols, Kane-O has been broadcasting his midday show from home since last March; however, he tells RAMP he will be back in the studio on Monday to mark this milestone — the only other time he returned to the station was after Eddie Van Halen‘s death last October.
• Kane-O By The Numbers: Years on the air: 40 (41 in the Rochester market); Program Directors: 11; Owners: 5; GMs: 7; Broadcast Facilities: 5; Regrets: “I’ve had a few.. (but not many!)” — Please take a moment and wish Kane-O a happy 40th at Dave.Kane@entercom.com. [Vintage photo courtesy of Dave Kane]
