The Rockfest on 93.8FM Midrand Stereo is just over a month old. It’s starting to gain momentum and the response has been fantastic! Once again, thanks to Steve Milo, Richard Jones and Hanz Stricker for making this happen.

For seven nights a week, from around 08pm to, in most cases, 02am, you can hear anything from classic rock to blues, from jazz/rock to 70’s disco, from progressive rock to alternative and metal. Most of the presenters’ shows include a fair amount of South African music, and a number of presenters have been conducting interviews on their shows too. Remember that 93.8FM Midrand Stereo also has a full daytime schedule, starting from 06am, incorporating news, weather and traffic reports, talk shows and, of course, great music, throughout the day.

Most of the playlists have been posted on the blog. If you’d like to subscribe to the blog, please visit http://rockfest.co.za and use the easy form on the right-hand side bar. Thanks to the “Mick Brockett” of The Rockfest, Brian Currin, for the work he’s put into the websites and blog (http://BrianCurrin.com)

If you would like to advertise on 93.8FM Midrand Stereo, please contact Richard Jones (citizenjones02@gmail.com) or Hanz Stricker (hanzstricker@polka.co.za). The rates are pretty good, and you will be helping to keep this great Community radio station on the air.

I was driving to Iowa this weekend and right on the Illinois/Iowa border on I-80 they used After All These Years at the end of a montage of songs sampling what the station plays. I was pretty shocked. It was 96.1 ("The Mix" I think.).

Are there still white people in South Africa, the murder rate there is atrocious. Along with the recent farm attacks, you'd have to be crazy to continue living there if you're not black.

Had a fucking blast, dude. Shooting all kinds of rifles was a lot of fun. I don't get to that here in the city unless someone uninvited comes in the house :lol: and Jim's son is one heck of a shot.

PS Folks, Jim can really get down when it comes to cooking. His brisket is unparalleled. My girlfriend got sort of mad when I told her Jim's was better than her mother's. :lol: :(

:lol: :lol: Thanks Dan, I'm glad you liked it. :wink: I think she's probably mad at me though because when you had her requesting songs for me to play... I was too drunk to play any of them without fucking them up BAD! :shock: :lol: :lol:
