Yeah, we had Dicky Barrett. It was comforting to hear his Bahstin accent on the radio here in LA. Plus he had interesting guests, wasn't afraid to make mistakes, did a punk rock minute every hour and played good music (when they'd let him).
I don't think Steve Jones or Henry Rollins will last long on that radio station. I haven't heard much of Hank's show but he's . . . outspoken to say the least. Steve Jones (as in, Steve Jones, formerly of the Sex Pistols) has a silly sexual I'm-becoming-a-dirty-old-man sense of humor and plays reggae and 60's songs among other things.
Nina Blackwood also does a New wave show that airs on that station but it's syndicated so I don't have to listen to Indie 103.1 to hear it. I can get it on iTunes.

Sorry for the continued rant.
