Hi again
This week I was standing in for Linda Sue’s 20H00 to 21H00 show, and I took the opportunity to invite Peter Hanmer of Off The Edge / Clint & Co fame into the studio so that he could talk to us about his current and future plans, and also so that we could hear some of the material from his up and coming new solo album, as well as some new Off The Edge material. He’s a pretty busy chap!
Check out brand new releases from Canada’s Lighthouse (cd / dvd combo – finally – some live in the studio material from this most amazing Canadian outfit!), as well as an awesome track from the new Blindside Blues Band (Mike Onesko) album, “World On Fire”, to be released in the next week.
I want to bring the Blindside Blues Band to South Africa as part of The Rockfest gigs. This is power blues / hard rock of the highest order. Anyone keen to get involved in terms of sponsorship, please get in touch with me (leon(at)rock.co.za).
Many people would love to see Ken Hensley perform here too, so c’mon – put your money where your mouth is!
Welcome back to one of the wayward Rockfest presenters! Greg Tucker will be joining The Rockfest ON 93.8FM on Tuesday nights, as from mid January.
Coming up next week: tracks from the new Kansas, new Foreigner, the amazing W.E.T album (no, not the WET WET WET one! We’re talking REAL music here!!), Black Widow, Stud (I’m gonna sue them for using my name!), Transatlantic (a very close contender for top prog album of the year), Magnum, and a whole bunch of other goodies.
The Rockfest on 93.8FM Midrand Stereo brings you the best music in the land, from 8pm til late, seven nights a week!
