September Rock 50 Preview
Posted on Sep.18, 2014 under Rock 50
H! Everyone,
Our Rock 50 show airs on Saturday, September 20.
We’ll be remembering the tragic assault on the Twin Towers on 9/11/2001, as well as the loss of Flight 93 and the attack on the Pentagon. We’ll play some songs for those who lost loved ones and remember those still suffering.
Also, we’ve got some great Metal for you – classic, current and brand new stuff. Our drum segue is going to be killer – we’re featuring Gene Hoglan “The Atomic Clock.” For you, the student who may not have heard Gene play, check this show out. As for Hoglan fans and all lovers of Metal, you know the show will kick ass.
Check us out.
Stay Safe. Stay Strong.

Hi Everybody.
It’s Bill here. First off, I want to thank you all for the support you’ve given me throughout the years. I love to play– whether it’s playing drums in Black Sabbath, making music with my own band or working with other musicians, period. Being able to do what I love for my whole life, pretty much, has been an honour and privilege.
When I started playing in Sabbath, there was an energy of truth about us. We believed in what we were saying, the music we were making and the lives we were living. As time has moved on, I’ve nurtured and tried to save a lot of what I learnt playing in Sabbath. During the more recent years at the Ozzfest concerts, I’ve found myself immersed in the musical rewards of playing in such a unique and devastatingly, powerfully effective Metal band. Sabbath have been, and are, my greatest teachers, and I am forever grateful for the musical journey so far.
Today, I love what’s happening in music. I’ve been given the rare opportunity to play bands I like – Classic and newer Metal – on our Rock 50 radio show. These bands energize me.
I am humbled to know many of you. Music lives and brings and maintains life. Music has always brought me through.
Stay strong, safe and live. Enjoy the site.
Long Live Metal.
--Bill Ward
