Winner of the Week

Kevin Weatherly and Lou Barlow beat out Pat Boone -- The winners and the banger

Winner of the Week 1: Kevin Weatherly —The KROQ-LA program director, who single-handedly broke such alterna-hitmakers as Bush and the Goo Goo Dolls, has temporarily moved East to overhaul former classic rock and sister station WXRK-NY.

Winner of the Week 2: Lou Barlow —The indie hero scores a Top 40 hit this week with ''Natural One,'' the first commercial single from side project Folk Implosion. Meanwhile, his day-job band, Sebadoh, has yet to crack the bottom 40.

Headbanger of the Week: Pat Boone — The squeaky-clean crooner plans to record Pat Boone in a Metal Mood, a set of heavy-metal classics including ''Stairway to Heaven.'' What's next? Debbie Boone Interprets the Songs of Hole?
