KQRC: Kansas City – Shinedown @ Rockfest

Category: Kansas City - KQRC - 98-9 The Rock!

This band is so well-loved. It’s really great to see how much they’ve grown over the years. In Kansas City, where this interview was done, they’re almost god-like. Hard to believe it’s been almost ten years already. A band that works as hard as they do, deserves success. I’m not a huge fan of their tunes. I am a huge fan of them. Enjoy.

KQRC: Kansas City – Unedited w/ Motorhead @ Freaker’s Ball

Category: Kansas City - KQRC - 98-9 The Rock!

tat1When I started doing this in 1986, I got a chance to interview Motorhead. They were my first. You never forget your first. In fact the picture to the left is my left leg. I did it to pay proper tribute. This was the only American show the band did in 2007. Coincidentally, they were also the last band I introduced prior to taking the gaffe in Kansas City in 2009. Yet another example of why we employ the beloved dump button. The English love their potty mouth.

KQRC: Kansas City – Hanging @ Rockfest w/ Rev Theory

Category: Kansas City - KQRC - 98-9 The Rock!

These guys are just road pigs. Always out. Always ready to bring it. And they came and hung in KC for four days around this show. And they pull grade-A tail! Again…I am the good looking girl’s best friend. Fun Fact: Rev Theory’s music, was used as the opening theme for the cool show “Blue Mountain State.” Loved that show. Hope they got paid!

KQRC: Kansas City @ Family Values w/ Stone Sour Unedited

Category: Kansas City - KQRC - 98-9 The Rock!

At the Family Values show in Kansas City, we renew our friendship. I usually get flak when I say this…but, I find Stone Sour *vastly* superior to Slipknot. Always have. They can be as heavy as the ‘knot, and as mellow as you’d ever want. Truly and unlimited band. Always enjoy when they release new music. On this day, Sean & Corey do the hang. And of course, it’s the pre-delay feed!

KQRC: Kansas City – @ Rockfest w/ Theory Of A Deadman

Category: Kansas City - KQRC - 98-9 The Rock!

Talk about a band having a great couple of years. I like to joke about them being “Canada’s other Nickelback.” But, that’s really unfair. They’re completely laid back, and can hang. I first met these guys at the friggin’ Mall Of America. We went shopping, and I bought my very own copy of “Everyone Poops.” They, bought cowboy hats…in Minneapolis…in Winter. Then again, they’re from Canada. So, they laugh at Minneapolis Winters. A great bunch. I’m very happy for their success.
