BLINDSIDED!

I was pleasantly blindsided by how great The GREG ROLLIE Band was at Rockin on the RiverFront. He's an original member of both Santana and Journey and it was definitely early Santana time. He concentrated on the stuff he was originally on and he kept true to the original arrangements which made it big fun.  His guitarist had the Carlos phasing down to a tee and he had a great, and relentless, rhythm section. He really got the crowd going, and kept em going. It was like Woodstock..without the mud.

Summertime Fun

It's always busy and fun around this time of year for WCSX and you. Our Workforce Lunchtime concerts at Campus Martius are going well. They start at 11:30 and run until 1:00pm. Rockin on the RiverFront has BOC and Solid State this Friday July 27th and Greg Rollie and Salem Witchcraft, there's a classic name from yesteryear, next week. Save Friday the 13th of Aug for our big final Riverfront show. Bring your earplugs because, I'll be joining the Eddie Leighton Project, opening for the motorcity's own Romantics. Wally Palmer, the Romo's lead singer was in Windsor last Friday as part of Ringo's All-Star Band. It must have been cool to have Ringo playin drums on "What I Like About You".  I really liked it when Ringo said hi from onstage to "Wally's Mum" , who was in the crowd. How cool for both Wally and "mum."  Make this Friday ...

Gee, I can't wait for the suspense to be over regarding Lebron James. I'll spoil some it right now. The big question??  What kind of jewelry will he wear? What bling?  I know of ONE RING he won't be wearing..yep an NBA Championship ring! You know, like Ken Calvert has? (true)  This despite the fact he's never been called for...1) Traveling, (steps) 2) Turning the ball over (palming), or 3) Charging.  I'll take "Le James Brown" anytime.

Coming Soon
