Tonight I go live on Rock 4 Rookies for the 15th time. I have traveled back and forth from my home in the center of Israel to the capital 15 times. I have fretted, worried, and sweated on my way to the Rusty Mike Radio studio. I have also laughed, smiled, and rocked on the road to the live show.
Now I don't want to polish my own statue but sometimes I feel like I'm running my own online radio empire at www.rock4rookies.com !! Keeping things running smoothly isn't easy, its like being in charge of the UN,but we don't hate Israel. Its like organizing different races with different religions but in this case, the religion is music, the race is simply being different people with our own lives. Its hard to keep the herd grazing smoothly and I had help obviously (Thank you Web Master D) but the herd have grown. Our trance/electro show the Electronic Voyage has been picked up by another web site hence bringing hundreds of more listeners. Country Love with Ilona is now being broadcast on www.rustymikeradio.com, the home of my live show. We also have the Indie Insurgence, slowly but surely gaining ground in its fight against the mainstream. Finally in the last few months we've picked up a new show, the bubble gum Pop Rox, playing the best in pop music.
All of this...this Online Radio Empire, began 80 weeks ago with my first Rock 4 Rookies show. Its funny but when I go back to listen to that first show in the archives, I shudder at how bad I was as a Dj but I still love my music choices, it was and still is my favorite playlist.
So what is Rock 4 Rookies to me right now? Its every thing I wish I had a few years ago, all the music I wish people had been introducing me to. Now its your chance.
Join me tonight at 8pm Israel time(1pm New York) by click here to listen to my live show.
