The Ides of March Rockin' on the FBY!

So it's raining like it won't stop.....but life is good...got a bunch going on for ya this next couple weeks.
First up, listen next week to win tickets to see Dave Mason April 2nd at the Metropolitan Theatre in Morgantown. He's the guy who wrote "Feelin' Alright" that Joe Cocker did. He also was the guitarist/vocalist in Traffic with Steve Winwood and he plays the famous acoustic guitar track on All Along the Watchtower for Jimi Hendrix. And Dave hit the charts himself in the 70's with his big hit "We Just Disagree" He's a great vocalist and a monster guitar player. This will be an awesome show.

Overheard on my show this week on the FBY:
The Hard Rock Park in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina has re-named one of their roller-coasters after an Eagles song. The "Midnight Rider" coaster, named after the Allman Brothers Band song, is now the "Eagles Life in the Fast Lane" coaster. The Eagles have re-recorded the song, turning it into a one-of-a-kind version exclusively for the new ride. The coaster, which takes two minutes to ride, features a double lift hill with lift heights of 39 feet and 46 feet. It features an on-board, high-fidelity digital audio system to further enhance the ride experience as you are zipped along at over 30-miles per hour while pulling two G-Forces. The Eagles will perform at the Park's Grand opening on June 2nd.

Alice Cooper has signed a record deal with German label Steamhammer/SPV. The shock rocker's upcoming album, tentatively titled Along Came a Spider, is due out this fall on the imprint. He began work on the disc in February with producers Greg Hampton and Danny Saber.


38 Special have beefed up the itinerary for their 2008 Loud & Proud Tour.
