WCSB DJ Tops Several 2011 “Year in Review” Lists

Tuesday, December 20th, 2011

Congratulations to “This is Metal” (Thursdays 5-7pm) host Bob Delchin, guitarist for “Alternate Reality”, whose “The King That Never Was” has been named by several national news outlets as the “Worst Video of 2011″. Yahoo elected it as NUMBER 1, topping Rebecca Black, George Michael and various horrible European rappers.

Over the years, WCSB DJs have been in many terrible garage bands but never has one of them gained national attention for being the worst of the year (and according to one site – “perhaps of all time”). Move over Spinal Tap, behold WCSB’s own Metal Bob in “the legend of King Arthur and his quest for the Kingdom of Metal.”
