Manage episode 410324867 series 3550370
How do you recover as a rock station when the popular music at the time was Culture Club? Thompson Twins? Mr. Mister? The Bangles? It takes a musical upsurge and it came in 1986 with Permanent Vacation from Aerosmith. And another upstart in 1987...who shouldn't have been an upstart. WRDU-The Rolling Stone Magazine Rock Station of the year gets it in gear.
Relive the legendary 1984 station launch—complete with Ferrari fiascos and curb calamities—and get an insider's look at the shenanigans that defined our off-air antics. And while the early 80s tunes might’ve hit a few sour notes, by '87, rock music was soaring to new heights, and we were riding that wave, night after electrifying night. Prepare for a nostalgia-infused episode that's all about laughter, legendary tunes, and the undying spirit of the 80s.
Live from my home studio, it's me! Great to have you listen to these stories and recounts going back to the rock heyday and what it's like for me now being a regular Joe. Jump on with me and support my "no program director" show where I play and say what I want.
