Head Bangin' Radio: Volume 1

By ThrashPie

Part autobiography, part diary and part memoir, Head Bangin' Radio recalls the adventures of a journeyman "Rock Jock" whose beginnings on a tiny 10-watt college radio station in Southside Virginia failed to foreshadow his eventual landing at an LA-based heavy metal upstart station in the 1980s. From the overnight weekend airshifts broadcasting to the "night people" of the deep South to standing on stage at the Los Angeles Coliseum in front of 80,000 screaming metal heads, Head Bangin' Radio is a fun and funny look into the real-life experiences of the man the Southern California rock radio audience knows as Thrashpie.If you ever wondered what it was like to be on the radio, or just what the heck those people were really doing "in there" as you listened, you'll find the answers in these pages. Written like a private conversation, with all the blemishesout front, Head Bangin' Radio plucks the heartstrings of those who loved the great era of FM rock radio, and for those who lived for the music and for KNAC-FM.
