Alternative Milestones

Alternative Milestones Episode 93 – RIP Bill Lupoletti

Thu, Nov 6, 2025

I’ll begin today’s show with a tribute for WRIR’s late co-founder and Global Music champion Bill Lupoletti, who passed on Halloween.  A legend in Richmond and beyond who will be forever missed.

Also today I’ll be joined by DJ Boy Lichtenstein as he finishes off his training rotation.  We’ll talk about his vision for what he wants to do with his show.

As for Milestone tunes this week – got some!

Birthdays will be celebrated with tracks from Florence + The Machine, Death Cab for Cutie, Story of the Year and Static-X.  I’ll have an in Memoriam track from Bayside.

One interesting observation from this week’s playlist – every milestone track comes from one of the artist’s first 3 albums…
