Fest For Beatles Fans, 2016: Ken Dashow of WAXQ-FM
The 2016 New York-area Fest For Beatles Fans convened at the Westchester Hilton for the second consecutive year. Having hosted it in 2015 when a freak accident at the hotel in the New Jersey Meadowlands rendered it unusable that year, the Westchester Hilton proved to be so popular with the fans that the Lapidos family, which runs the Fest, decided to hold it here again for 2016 - which meant another one-hundred-mile round trip for me.
No matter, I still made it up there and had a good time. And disc jockey Ken Dashow of WAXQ-FM, New York's last commercial classic-rock station (actually, it's New York's only commercial rock station of any sort, thanks to hip-hop!) appeared once again to play host and master of ceremonies in the hotel ballroom, despite having had an accident that injured his left leg (you can see the brace here).
