As far as I know, this is the last longform interview with Vladimir Konstatntinov before the limo accident on Friday June 13th, 1997. Many outside the Motor City are unfamiliar with or too young to remember the timeline, but the Detroit Red Wings had just ended a 42 year title drought by winning the Stanley Cup Finals vs. Philadelphia on Saturday June 7th. On Tuesday June 10th the city held a Stan...

Three bands have been added to the bill for the CD92.9 Holiday Show on December 9th at Kemba Live and here's the promo I did for it.

Fun fact: I've had more addresses in Akron than any other city. This Moody Blues parody track was written from a place of love while I was part of the Big Al & Scoop show in the early 90's on 97.5 WONE in Akron. A big story at the time was the noise ordinance in the city that would allow police to cite drivers with loud car stereos. That was the impetus for this performance and bit of satirical cr...

In 2004 Metallica flew radio station DJ's into Chicago from all over the country. Meltdown from WRIF was there(cool guy, great radio jock), and Metallica did two shows there on the Madly In Anger With The World Tour. I interviewed James Hetfield on press row at the event about the tour, the movie 'Some Kind Of Monster', listening to Radio Disney with his daughter and more. He sounds really happy....

Highlights of our broadcast live from Disney World on 97.5 WONE in Akron, Ohio. We visit Tomorrowland Speedway, the Delta Dream Flight, and the Mission To Mars which closed a few years after. Here's a peek behind the curtain. We were live from the MGM Studios at Disney but we were actually playacting along with sound effects that we recorded at the park to make it sound like we were actually on th...

This is what happened once when I played Guns N' Roses & sent it out to Sergei Fedorov on 102-7 The Bear in Detroit. He heard it and called me on the request line!

The late Ray Manzarek of The Doors talks about his book 'Light My Fire', the factual inaccuracies in The Doors movie and how he's not a fan of Oliver Stone's telling of the story, and a real bad gig they had playing the University of Michigan's Homecoming when Jim Morrison was drunk(and Iggy Pop was there). Ray also describes how the band got together and chose their name.

In 2014 I spoke with Joe Bonamassa about his album 'Different Shades Of Blue' on 96.9 WOUR in Utica , NY which is Joe's hometown. He discusses writing original music in Nashville, writing with Jonathan Cain of Journey, James Dewar & Robin Trower, B.B. King, & Johnny Winter who had passed away recently. I loved living in Utica and you can tell Joe loved growing up there and in nearby New Hartford.

Back in 1997 I talked to 'Ernie C' Cunnigan of Body Count about the 'Cop Killer' song controversy, racism, his guitar heroes, producing the Black Sabbath album 'Forbidden', singing on the Body Count album 'Violent Demise: The Last Days', and his time living in Detroit while going to elementary school. This interview aired on 102-7 The Bear on 'The Loud Guitar Show' 3.29.97.

Peter Steele did some of the best radio interviews ever. Some of his best were with Steve Black, now of WRIF. But on this occasion, I got the honor. It was a good day… Type O Negative played Harpos in Detroit that night and it must’ve been 100 degrees in there. At one point we watched the show from behind thru the back curtain. Sold out, overheated, alcohol-fueled insanity for 1800…a killer show....

During Grammy Week in 1996 I interviewed Ian Astbury at the Petersen Automotive Museum in LA for Detroit ZRock. The Cult had broken up in 1995 and Ian had started a new band called The Holy Barbarians. In May of '96 they released their only album 'Cream'. Ian talks about the sounds they were trying to create and cites The Beatles and Garbage as influences. Although work started on a second album,...
