H! Everybody,

Our radio show airs on May 6^th 2017.  It’ll be my birthday show.

I’ll be playing early, early rock influences, songs that were important to me as a kid thru my teens.  Some Jazz, Blues, early Rock-n-Roll, up to my favorite Metal bands today.  The show may be a little bit longer than normal.

Check us out, we rock!

Stay safe, stay strong, forever and ever and ever.

H! Everyone,

Our Rock 50 Christmas show will air on 12/10/16, 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM Pacific Time.  The Christmas show at Rock 50 respectfully highlights songs that are heartfelt, and we recognize that the holidays can be stressful and depressing for many.   It’s not a “ho ho ho” show. We’ll play mostly softer rock songs with a Metal segue.  Paul McCartney, Foo Fighters, Joni Mitchell, David Bowie, Type O Negative, Yes, U2 and more great bands.  For this show, it’s melancholy, sad, uplifting, and I hope you’ll hear something you like.

We start back in January 2017 with our Metal shows.

Stay safe stay strong. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all.

Rock forever and ever,
Bill
