Welcome brave WebSurfer or Webonaut or WebWeenie or whatever it is you're calling it this week! We really weren't prepared for you to drop by, what with the pet badger being sick and doing that nasty business over there in the corner of the broadcast studio. On top of that, the late night DJ had some sort of party or coven meeting or traffic accident in the server room. I was hoping to have the wreckage cleared away before anyone came by. Not to worry. That's why we have Slappy the Intern on duty to clean up our messes and take the blame. Good old Slappy! Hmmmm...where do I start? Radio Roadkill is another one of those "internet radio" thingies that keep popping up all over the place. We're not certain why but here we are, doing that internet radio thingie. Go figure! Well, it couldn't be avoided, so we decided that as long we were required to do this thing, we might as well do Classic Rock from that dark and scary era known as the 60's, 70's and 80's. You know...the era when the earth was ruled by Evil Dudes in Leisure Suits and women were forced (by law) to wear their hair in bizarre styles mandated by committees of fashion designers and used car salesmen. No small wonder the ozone layer decided to get the hell out of here! But the music! That was a different matter... Strange herds of creatures known as "Rock Bands" roamed the countryside, playing all manner of exotic musical instruments and making exceedingly beautiful noises. Those beautiful noises are what Radio Roadkill intends to play, relentlessly, over the internet. We will play them until we either become rich and powerful media moguls or someone comes and throws us out of the building, into the gutter where we belong. That's where the Roadkill comes into play. Throughout the history of broadcasting, both terrestrial and web-based, there has always been roadkill. Inevitably, some guy from the "head office" shows up to throw the entire staff under the bus. It is to all those victims of Radio Roadkill that we dedicate this doomed enterprise.

Should you decide this Internet Radio thing is something you would like to hear on a regular basis, you may want to sign up for Live365's "Preferred" membership. What this buys you is NO pop-up ads, NO interruptions by commercial messages and the opportunity to support this station (we get a cut of the action, so to speak!). Sign up for VIP Membership and poor little Slappy The Intern may be able to afford that Slim Whitman boxed set she has had her heart set on. |
The radio business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side. --Hunter S. Thompson |
Radio Dude is a truly LIVE broadcast (unlike most), thanks to the fine people at
