2055 - At tune-in, a parody/rockabilly song. Parody ad mentioning "over-the-shoulder-bolder-holders. "Radio Free East Coast" ID followed. Good signal with consistent, moderate noise. Good signal but moderate, consistent noise too.
2101 - Parody ad about "Tractor Pull Announcer Disease." "Sundays, Sunday's Sundays." "Thank you for listening to WREC." BRS address mentoned. Old program re-aired?
2110 - Alice in Chains - Rooster
2115 - WREC ID "Radio Free East Coast. This should be played at high volume in a residential area." Following song also sounds like Alice in Chains.
2121 - Parody ad, then Stone Temple Pilots (noise has slightly abated, but the strong signal is the biggest feature).
2127 - Sounds like Cheech & Chong.
2135 - Soundgarden song?
