Hello Everyone,
Here is the recap of the May 29 edition of "The Homegrown Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on Q94 Classic Rock!
This week, we presented the 2022 edition of the annual Memorial Day Special! We did our annual trek down "Local Music Memory Lane" and remembered past bands and artists from the area music scene, including a few area bands dating back to the 70s, and some curios and tunes never before played on the air! We also remembered some of the fallen area musicians who are no longer with us . (For those who missed the program, a four-part podcast of this show is available for listening or download from Q94's website, www.q94classicrock.com. Click on "The Professor's Classroom," and then scroll down to "Homegrown Rocker Podcast" and look for the four show segments marked with the date, 052922.)
