I love Michigan and have been on-air & programming radio stations all over our beloved state including Flint, Saginaw, Detroit, Grand Rapids and now Kalamazoo. I constantly crave a good round of golf and a good local Michigan brewed IPA. I also enjoy Kayaking, Biking, Fantasy Football and many home improvement projects that keep me busy when not on the radio. I Love being back in West Michigan and back on a morning show in particular. This is going to be fun listeners of WRKR – please feel free to contact me about anything and everything RKR if ever you have a question, comment, or complaint – I’m here for you and thank you allowing us to be a part of your lives!

Wingstock 2012 Spotlight – Dokken [VIDEO]
At last we arrive at one of our most unusual picks of the Wingstock 2012 line up - Dokken.
But there is a reason. Sit down and settle in kiddies as former Late 80's hairband expert JT schools ya on what the hipsters and music snobs just don't get about us members of "Hair Nation". You see there was a time in America when unemployment was low, jobs were a plenty and gas prices weren't
Dead Sara – A WGRD Studio “LIVE” Performance [VIDEO]
The band Dead Sara came to visit me and perform a couple of songs from their debut album. I had already grown attached to the band by listening to their Single "Weatherman" over and over but once I watched them perform "Test On My Patience" & "Face To Face" in our studios I was floored.

The Darkness – “Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us” – Does It Rock Or Not
Looks like The Darkness are back! The Darkness have always been a fun band that has never taken themselves too seriously as witnessed by any live performance or vid for that matter. Band has always been full of glitz and glam and lots of overdone showmanship and with all the Foxy Shazam recent buzz - why the hell not.

New Vid From Lostprophets – Does It Rock Or Not [VIDEO]
Multi-Platinum Act Lostprophets return with their 5th studio release, Weapons, and lead off with the heavy hitting single “Bring ‘Em Down”. Now, one could argue the Lostprophets sound has changed a lot since their debut album "The fake Sound Of Progress" in 2000, but many continue to argue the Lostprophets sound has conformed to modern day antics.

The guys in My Darkest Days took some time when they were in town recently to give our listeners an intimate acoustic performance at the BOB.

Does It Rock Or Not – RUSH “Headlong Flight” [VIDEO]
Have to admit I had some reservations when the "New Rush" file arrived on my computer. It's been a long time since I've heard from em and I had my doubts the old men still had it em in enough to impress me. But impress me they did! To quote one poster:
