WFNX Boston Accents playlist 10.31.10 (Halloween songs & Billy Ruane tribute)


Last night's Boston Accents loval music show was divided into two parts: the first hour featuring Halloween-appropriate songs, and the last 60 minutes dedicated to the late Billy Ruane, playing an hour of his favorite New England-based performers past and present. Host Dave Duncan also took calls from Aly Spaltro (Lady Lamb The Beekeeper), Sean Slade (Fort Apache) and Mike Gill (Murder Mile & videographer), who shared their Ruane stories and memories live on air. Feel free to contact Mike Gill at mike@circumvision.net for more information about his in-progress documentary on Billy Ruane, and remember, Boston Accents runs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 p.m., 101.7 FM on the dial and streaming live at wfnx.net
