Radio station Rocket 101 (WRKT) reached a milestone today by playing Joe Walsh’s “Rocky Mountain Way” for the 50,000th time since going on the air in 1989. “We play it four or five times a day, so it adds up over 26 years” said station spokesman Chris Murphy.  “It’s even better when we pair it with a George Thorogood song.”  Not to be outdone, Z102 (WQHZ) has announced that they are trimming their playlist to 50 songs. “Folks in Erie seem to like hearing the same songs over and over, so we need to give them what they want” said weekend DJ Wes LaChot. “Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got to go put on “Rocky Mountain Way.”
