Great news!! GLU on the radio once again (in another way)

Post by Fiveliter302 »

OK, I'm going to keep this as brief as possible, but I'm pretty thrilled right now.

Anyways, back in High School and past High School I was in a band called "Waste of Time" (yes, named after the GLU song). Our singer's name was Corey. The band broke up close to a decade ago. Corey went on to be in numerous other bands such as "Shock Cinema" and currently a Poison tribute band called "Toxin" (he's really into glam/hair music). I have been in contact with him but rather infrequently since our band broke up. I haven't really been in a band since, until mid-last year. Anyway, thats beside the point.

So, I put up the myspace page for our band http://www.myspace.com/straightjacketcivilians and put our cover of "Fool" up. Corey contacted me, loved the song, and wants to play our version of "Fool" on the radio (he is a DJ w/ pretty much the biggest rock radio station in the Cleveland/Akron area WMMS as a "Weekend Warrior" DJ) on "The Local Show" (he goes by "Corey Rotic").

I know its nothing huge, but it will be the first time I have a song on the radio, and it will be a GLU song!

I'm waiting for details from him when they will play it, and when the local show is on (its also available on their site as streaming radio). I also asked him if they are only going to play it once or all the time on the show or what. I will let you guys know more details if you want, when I know them, but he did say he would get it on there ASAP.

YAY!

haha, hardly, but it is cool to have something you worked on played on the radio.

I still haven't heard back from him yet about when it will be on.
