First things first! This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio congratulates our pals at The Wax Museum With Ronnie Dark over on WVOA on the occasion of their Seventh Anniversary show tonight, Awright! Ronnie Dark, John "The Commander" Walsh, and Mike "The Night Owl" Adams are the real deal, true believers who believe in playing records, and who further believe that playing great records results in great radio. If you listen to their show, you'll believe, too. The Wax Museum airs Sunday nights from 7 to 10 pm Eastern on 87.7 WVOA, and on-line at

Radio is feast or famine. I spin the dial all week long, looking for radio I can believe in; I always wind up giving up, and switching to guaranteed cool music on my iPod. But Sunday nights in Syracuse present an embarrassment of radio riches: Everyone's Invited with Mark Hughson, from 7 to 9 pm on www.westcottradio.org; The Wax Museum with Ronnie Dark from 7 to 10 pm on WVOA; the local music showcase Soundcheck with the legendary Dave Frisina from 9 to 10 pm on 105.9 The Rebel; and our own never-humble mutant shindig This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio from 9 to Midnight on Westcott Radio. Four great radio shows, overlapping and competing, all at the same time. Crazy. Just crazy, You folks are gonna need three radios, blastin' simultaneously. Believe it.
For TIRnRR's part tonight, howzabout a Featured Act? In fact, we'll feature one of the biggest acts in power pop history, an act you'll be stunned to learn has never before been a Featured Act on TIRnRR. Time to surrender, and stop this game. An inexpensive subterfuge? A bargain-priced misdirection? No. CHEAP TRICK! I want you to want us, Sunday night 9 to Midnight Eastern, www.westcottradio.org
