Rock N Roll Manifesto 162

September 19, 2013 03:57

September 05, 2013 04:06

With all that’s been going on stateside lately, I thought it was a perfect opportunity to throw together a show focused upon anti-war songs and social and political protest songs. I asked the Manifesto listeners for some suggestions, and then … Continue reading →

Rock N Roll Manifesto 159

August 29, 2013 04:04

Rock N Roll Manifesto 158: A Musical Journey

August 22, 2013 03:59

Rock N Roll Manifesto 149: Celebrate Diversity

June 20, 2013 04:05

June 13, 2013 04:03

I started out tonight’s show with a 10 song tribute to the memory of Torr Skoog, singer for the Kings of Nuthin’ who recently decided to check out of this world way too early. Really fucking sad. After that, it … Continue reading →

April 11, 2013 03:38

Rock N Roll Manifesto 137 (Sort of)

March 29, 2013 04:04

Rock N Roll Manifesto 128: Cover Your Ass!

January 24, 2013 05:26
