Fake THIS IS ROCK 'N' ROLL RADIO Playlist: Rock Acts So Nice I Saw 'Em Twice (or more!)

This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl is simply too large a concept to be neatly contained within a mere three-hour weekly time slot. Hence these occasional fake TIRnRR playlists, detailing shows we're never really going to do...but could.

Nice 'n' simple playlist fodder this time: Acts I saw in live performance at least twice. I'm counting them by the name used in their billing; for example, each of my three Herman's Hermits shows featured a different lead singer and varying line-ups, but I'm not listing Tom Tom Club here because one of the two times I saw them was as part of a Talking Heads concert.

Nonetheless: ENCORE!!!

This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio with Dana & Carl--y'know, the real one--airs Sunday nights from 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse at SPARK! WSPJ 103.3 and 93.7 FM, and on the web at westcottradio.org You can read all about this show's long and weird history here: Boppin' The Whole Friggin' Planet (The History Of THIS IS ROCK 'N' ROLL RADIO). TAX DEDUCTIBLE DONATIONS are always welcome.
