Another Band Nervo and I played on the radio in the 70's-Look how stoned Deke is! 

My Pal Nervo

The pic below is of my longtime friend Gary Mollica aka Nervo-we used to hang out in Milford Connecticit in the early 70's and he would join me on my radio show "Syncopated Pandemonium" on WSHU-FM Fairfield CT-he would guest sometimes while I played Roxy Music, Hawkwind, Soft Machine, early Genesis, Pink Floyd, Pink Fairies, Big Star and many other early 70's legends.
He moved to Cleveland to WRUW and had his own show and was VERY active in the early CLE punk scene with bands like Pere Ubu, The Pagans DEVO and many others. This was while I was moving to Berkeley CA to work at Rather Ripped Records, Rasputins, and other record stores.
Later he moved out to Berkeley and joined the Jars and later The Art Faggots and much later Bo, and we ran Universal Records,and played music together till he moved to Pasadena and I moved to OR.
I have many stories of our adventures together and perhaps later I can remember some of them here.

Why I was Terminated at KALX in 1977

I had a pretty good radio show in Berkeley in 1977-I was the first to play Anarchy by the Sex Pistols, interview the Nuns, John Cale, The Ramones and other punk bands, and if you click on the playlist below you'll see that I played the Damned the Dead Boys, Iggy and the Dolls when practically no one else was playing them in the Bay Area. Actually this playlist is later on cuz I was doing my show at KALX from 1975-1977.
Then some smart ass program director decided I played too much punk rock-(see the notes scribbled after the word'Diversity'). They offereed me a 3 oclock in the morning shift so I told them to shove it.
My next radio job was here in Eugene on KWVA-88.1-FM in 2003-Thanks to all of you for supporting the Sunday Morning Hangover.

Sunday's Show

"The Sunday Morning Hangover" features "Bigshot: A Journey Through the Canyons of Vivian Stanshall's Mind, Part Two," 8am, KWVA 88.1 FM.

My Favorite Radio Station is Gone!!!

You may know that I DJ at KWVA-FM U of O radio but my fave station was one that I listened to while I worked-namely 910 AM KOTK Portland-Talk Radio for Guys. They had the Rick Emerson Show, kind of Portland's version of the Stern show;The Don and Mike show, a syndicated show of a coupla very funny guys from DC; and the Tom Leykis Show, a guy who many considered to be Howard Stern's succesor when he moves to Sirius.
Well today at 2 PM Max 910 went dead and was relaced by the most boring oldies radio format programmed and executed by Robots. No more live DJ's. Here's THEIR story:

"We wanted to let everyone know that at 2pm today 97.1 KISN FM was moved to its new home at 910 AM replacing MAX 910.
AM910 was actually KISN’s original dial position way back when, so it’s more like coming home for KISN. With the advent of high definition (digital) Radio on the horizon and a marked improvement in AM quality, music formats on the AM dial will become prevalent again. Unfortunately, we say goodbye to MAX910 and the many terrific talk radio talent that made it special: Don Imus, Rick Emerson, Don & Mike, Tom Leykis, Phil Hendrie and more. MAX910 has been a great ride and no doubt these very entertaining personalities will be back on the radio in Portland again soon."

This TOTALLY SUCKS and if this trend continues radio as we know it will DIE. I feel like I lost a friend. I called and complained but I know it does no good.
RIP MAX 910

Hey! Doesn't the new Pope look a LOT like bad-guy actor Robert Loggia? 

Robert Loggia ( Feech from the Sopranos and Mr. Eddy from Lost Highway) 

Just got a live DEVO show from SF in 1978-I was there! This cartoon sez it all.
