Series 2, Episode 2 is on the air! Join the conversation...

We won't be in the studio on Memorial Day, so be sure to remember to tune back in to Rock Show on Monday, June 6th. We might be inclined to play Elvis Presley's haunting rendition of "Blue Moon" and a lesser-known girl group tune that is simply insane.

Make your requests below!

On The Air: 5/6/2011 "Kid Rock" Episode!

This Friday will be our last Rock Show for the semester. Keep watching this spot (or the Facebook page) for schedule information for a possible Summer Session of Rock Show.

How do you turn your children, nieces, nephews, or the children of your friends into Rock Show fans? Start them out early with some fun, kid-friendly Classic Rock and Oldies tunes. Songs like this have had a proud history, even before The Beatles famously decreed that all toy submarines shall be yellow. (The penalty for breaking this rule is DEATH!) Maybe with enough requests, this block of "Kid Rock" could grow to take over the hour.

This is not what I meant! Do not ask us to play Kid Rock!
