Waaf link

the link needs to be fixed 2601:18C:9280:B1B0:4427:2D10:EBB1:F19F (talk) 16:45, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not material anymore. Had to delete the sentence because I was unable to find any sourcing that confirmed the statement that part of the funds from the CD's sales were/are donated to the Leary Firefighters Foundation.

But, anyway... Radio station WKVB used to be known as WAAF before its changeover from rock music to Christian contemporary etc. The call signal change finally took place in March 2020. See WKVB (FM)#Sale to EMF. By the way, the album "Survive This! included songs by the Foo Fighters, Stone Temple Pilots, and Godsmack among others. The Foo Fighters' contribution was a remix of "My Hero", done as a tribute to the Worcester Six, fire fighters who died in the Worcester Cold Storage and Warehouse Co. fire. - Shearonink (talk) 18:14, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Marriage year.

RS indicates clearly Leary married in 1989. Recent edit changing to 1983 was made based on an interview Leary gave with Drew Barrimore, during which he did NOT clearly state he had been "married 42 years." There are plenty of RS stating clearly the year was 1989. I think it's quite clear in the context of the interview with DB he was talking about how long he's actually been with his wife, not how long he was legally married. He never said, "1983."73.114.195.192 (talk) 12:37, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone more experienced add the following citation verifying 1989 as the correct year? [1]https://people.com/denis-leary-wife-ann-reveals-secret-decades-long-marriage-8674942 73.114.195.192 (talk) 12:47, 29 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
