Can you imagine knowing Hendrix?  And playing with someone like John Lee Hooker?  Richard LLoyd has done those things and will be playing at the Pub Station this Friday.  You've probably heard of his rock band Television. You can hear an interview with him on 'The Hawk' Thursday afternoon and we will start giving tickets to the show this afternoon on the air...

I grew up with a brother, no sisters and my father who owned a construction company, so there was always plenty of testosterone in the house.  Naturally I ended up being a tomboy but wouldn't have it any other way. In fact, it's made being in rock radio easier...

I'm taking it as a good sign.  One of the people I work with just informed me there is a Dillion, Mont. Never before I have moved to an area with the same name as mine.  Did a little research and found out there is also a Dillion, S...
