Are they getting a little lazy at KROQ? Fans of KROQ's morning DJs Kevin & Bean are still wondering what happened to the show's annual Christmas CD.
Released annually, with proceeds going to charity, the CD is a KROQ tradition. But the radio station decided to yank it this year. This blog said they talked to a "K&B" producer who said "they were burnt out on the insane amount of work they take. They'll probably be back next year, though."
Bean (real name: Gene Baxter) posted a comment to that blog, and had a different take:
just for the record, i never heard the story from lightning about the cd being too much work. i heard it was cancelled because it doesn't sell as well anymore as it used to and mr. weatherbee did not think we had enough time on the air to promote it properly this year because acoustic christmas is too big.
"Mr. Weatherbee" is actually program director Kevin Weatherly. KROQ also scrapped its annual calendar, another fundraiser.
