I first discovered my love of alternative pop-rock and related sounds while fiddling with the home radio and picking up WHTG 106.3 and hearing Matt Pinfield all those years ago.

About me: I'm following my childhood dreams by creating a weekly freeform radio program. Alongside this I'm currently handling booking with some medium/major venues in NYC and cross-promoting both. I have a great p/t job on Park Avenue, seeking a 2nd p/t job. I have a sense and taste for the weird, the unexplainable, the left field foul line of the spectrum of knowledge. Yes, I picked up just enough traditionalism to get by but I never, and will never, sell out. Aquarian, Scorpio Moon, Leo Rising. Ability to melt down layers of nonsense in one sentence...... If you are interested in being booked for a live music venue...please check out my work with NYC Gigs www.myspace.com/nycgigs for more info

Putting the "sick" back into Classic since mid- to late-2007.

Hey Dan, glad you found yourself and got back where you wanted to be the other night LOL! I think I messed you up w/some bad info on my website! And by the way WUSB is the SUNY Stony Brook station.
Hope all is well w/ you and RCB. Wanted to share w/ you a live performance of a song slated for my upcoming CD. The song is called All That Runnin. Will get you a disc once I finish up in the studio.
Thank you so much for your hard work Dan- The recording came out great, and the interview you prepared broke waaaay through the surface- the keepsakes of the gran finale of our uber month are all thanks to you.
