If you didn't get the message yet, I, Metalhead Ned am leaving WGRD! It's crazy to think I have been here for 7 years! So in my last week, I want to share some of my most favorite memories of working at this great radio station.

Yes my friends, this is no joke. I am officially leaving my beloved rock station known at 97.9 WGRD.

If you read my blog, listen to me on air, or know me, you'll know that I have a massive up-session with video games. Even the majority of my blog at WGRD.com is about 95% about video games! Heck, I even make a video series on video games! So why didn't I get into a career focusing on video games?

As a huge fan of the band Mushroomhead, this was some crushing news that I heard this morning. According to the man himself, Waylon Reavis, he is no longer associated with industrial metal band Mushroomhead.

It's been a long time coming, but with the latest game consoles coming out and the last gen consoles on their way out, it's times to do a Top 5 games for my most used game console from the last generation. I have always considered myself a classic gamer, but the Xbox 360 was the first game console I started getting hardcore on, and now, the console is making it's way out.

Time for a brand new Game of the Month from The Gaming Warehouse! This month, we take a look at a game series that I love from the bottom of my heart. The first game in this series is one of the greatest games of all time, but man, this one is great, but one hell of a difficult game.

Godsmack and Breaking Benjamin hit the Kellogg Arena on September 24, which is next week! Have you purchased your tickets to the show yet? Godsmack released their first ever album in 1998, which was one of the first rock albums that I ever listened too! To promote the upcoming tour, Godsmack drummer Shannon Larkin called into WGRD.

At 12:01am on Friday morning, Meijer released all of the new Star Wars merchandise to the masses with Star Wars Force Friday! Tons of new toys, drones, shirts, and even coffee creamer was released and WGRD was there to kick off the party!

We all knew that this day was going to come. Where I was going to have to take on the Football/Hockey player of Shao Kahn, but this time, we're gonna take him on in another game where he was first featured. Mortal Kombat 2.

Five Finger Death Punch's newest album 'Got Your Six' releases this Friday! A couple days later, they will play a sold out show at Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort in Mt. Pleasant! Guitarist Jason Hook checks in with WGRD to talk about the latest from Five Finger Death Punch!

I own a 2000 Jeep Cherokee, and I love that thing. I have had it for I think 5 years and it has treated me very well over those years. Very little maintenance and drives quite well. Then my car hit 180,000 miles and it seems like everything is starting to go south.

Bowling, Beers, stuff, and fun! Sounds like another year of the WGRD Bad Bowlers league am I right? It's gonna start getting cold outside again, so it's time to start looking into rocking the bowling league again with Metalhead Ned!
