May 2018 Rock 50 Preview
by Joe on May.30, 2018, under Rock 50
Hi Everyone!
Our final birthday show airs on Saturday, June 2, 2018, starting at 11:00 AM Pacific Time. It’ll be a variety of music spanning five decades, maybe more. Songs that I’ve loved all my life, and we’re packing in as much as possible for the third and final 70th Birthday Show. If you like Metal, Blues and all things in between, check us out.
Rock forever and ever and ever.

May Rock 50 Recap
by Joe on May.18, 2018, under Rock 50
Last weekend was the May edition of Rock 50. It was the second of three consecutive shows surrounding Bill’s 70th birthday. Here are some materials from the show:
First is the playlist – direct from the studio and Bill’s staff. You can download the entire playlist here.
Second is this video – which shows some highlights from the show.
Finally, you can check out the entire playlist on Spotify if you subscribe to that service. We have the playlist available as a playlist from Bill’s Spotify account. Save for one song, which Spotify does not have on their service (that song was “Christploitation” by Fear Factory).

Hi Everyone,
Rock 50 airs on Saturday, May 12, 2018. It’s the second birthday show in a series of three. This show comes after my 70th birthday on 5/5/18. We’re playing across-the-board music – songs that span my lifetime – so you will hear Rock ‘n’ Roll, Pop, Rock, Classic Rock, Metal, and all kinds of things in between: songs that have stayed with me since my childhood. I hope you can check us out.
Rock forever and ever,
Bill
