Category Phoenix – KSLX – Classic Rock 100-7

Billy’s always fun. I’ve been very fortunate to have been able to do a lot of cool stuff with The Cult over the years. Including hosting a World Premiere broadcast, for their “Born Into This” album back in 2007.

Billy called the show the day of their double bill with Public Enemy. We talked about the legacy of the band, and how they’ve never really received the credit they deserve.

Joe Perry’s one of the more misunderstood icons of Rock. He’s not an extremely outgoing guy. But…once you get him going, he can really be a fun guy to sit and talk to. Thankfully, we get along well. He called in to the show recently, and talked openly about how Aerosmith works. Most telling? His uncertainty about the band’s future…and how they go about choosing setlists. Doesn’t sound like they spend a whole lot of time together offstage at all. Who cares? They bring it. Every time! Here’s Joe Perry!

One of the fun parts of working for a Classic Rock station for the first time in 15 years, is that I get to goof around with guys who get it. Kevin Cronin, is one of those. He called in to the show, and we decided to clown him a bit for one of his biggest hits. He “rolled with the shenanigans” with class, and humor. Good dude!

Been a while since I’ve been able to post new audio to the site. Got that handled today…We got a visit from the legendary Alice Cooper in-studio. And then, he went into another studio, and called us on the phone. He was in to promote the latest round of dates with Motley Crue. So, they had him set up to do press with radio stations all over America. He was teamed with Motley’s Tommy Lee, and they did tandem interviews. We…were the last show on the list. Thanks to Alice & Tommy, for being good sports!
