Call it an Irish wake for a Syracuse punk, as we pay tribute to the legacy of guitarist PAUL ARMSTRONG, the single most rock 'n' roll person I ever knew. PA will be our Featured Performer AND our Featured Songwriter, so we'll hear him playin' loud 'n' proud with THE FLASHCUBES, THE MOST, 1.4.5., and THE RICHARDS, and we'll hear a bunch of songs Paul wrote or co-wrote, as executed by BALLZY TOMORROW, SORROWS, GRAHAM PARKER AND MIKE GENT, THE VERBS, THE PEPPERMINT KICKS, and ROB MOSS AND SKIN-TIGHT SKIN. We'll throw in some PA-approved treats by THE RAMONES, THE SEX PISTOLS, THE JAM, THE ROMANTICS, THE OUTLETS, THE NEW YORK DOLLS, THE HEARTBREAKERS, IGGY AND THE STOOGES, THE GEORGIA SATELLITES, TUFF DARTS, MOTT THE HOOPLE, THE YARDBIRDS, THE BUZZCOCKS, PAUL COLLINS BEAT, ACE FREHLEY, and SWEET, plus our usual palette of irresistibles by THE BEVIS FROND, THE RUBINOOS, NEW ORDER, JOY DIVISION, THE SHANGRI-LAS, VICKI PETERSON AND JOHN COWSILL, ANY TROUBLE, SHOES, THE MUFFS, MOON MARTIN, and more. It's all dedicated in memory of an amazing guy named PAUL ARMSTRONG. It...may get a little loud. Sunday night, 9 to Midnight Eastern, on the air in Syracuse at SPARK! WSPJ 103.3 and 93.7 FM, streaming via sparksyracuse.org, and as WESTCOTT RADIO on the Radio Garden app. The weekend stops HERE!
