This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio # 950

With this week's This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl, we've now completed a whompin', stompin' 950 of these things.

Man, what level of stubborn does it take for a couple of music fans to keep up a weekly radio show for 950 episodes? I dunno, but that's us! 950. Nine-hunnert-and-fifty! Please enjoy our gala celebration of whatever the hell it is we do, with old favorites, new favorites, and our ongoing embrace of The Joy Of Radio. Because whatever it is that we do, it's still The Best Three Hours Of Radio On The Whole Friggin' Planet. And if we've told you once, we've told you 950 times: this is what rock 'n' roll radio sounded like on a Sunday night in Syracuse this week.

This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl, Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse on The Spark WSPJ-LP 103.3 and 93.7 FM, and on the web at http://sparksyracuse.org/
