A Season in Hell #35: Rock Fight, Take 2
It's On!!!!
Tonight on A Season in Hell, with John Hell:
ROCK FIGHT #2!!!!
I "welcome" back the one and thankfully, only Rotten
Ronnie Donovan, from Firehouse Kustom Posters. Last
December 24th, I kicked the holy hell out of Ron's
already blasphemous ass, in almost six full hours of a
one-on-one live music show down.
It didn't matter what Ron brought, yours truly put him
to rock and roll shame.
Take a look here for the play list from last December.
From 8-midnight tonight, on Pirate Cat Radio, listen
while John Hell and Ron Donovan assault the airwaves
with some of the best live music you have never heard
before. All you favorite groups will be there.
See the Firehouse website here, featuring Chuck
Sperry's work.
See Ron's page here.
Pirate Cat Radio is live and loud on 87.9FM in SF &
LA, 104.8FM in Berlin; online at
http://piratecatradio.com
See you on the radio.

A Season In Hell #34: Let's Go Bowling
Download the show here.
Tonight on the show, I welcomed Jackie Nelson, from local SF Bay Area bowling alleys. She came in to talk about the summer kids bowling program: Say No To Drugs, Say Yes To Bowling. We had so much fun. She is hilarious, and she knows a terrific amount about bowling.
You can check out the website here for more summer info. If you have kids, you will want to check out there summer offers, including the summer bowling keytag. You get a free game a day until September 1st.
During her stay in Hell, Jackie and I began planning "Pirates and Pins", a Pirate Cat Radio fund raiser. We have to come up with a date, but it will be on either a Friday or Saturday night, in July or August, 5:30-11pm. We'll DJ live, get one or two bands, have drink specials (one named for me!!!), raffle ticket give-aways, and much, much more.
Take a look at the bowling alley websites by going here.

A Season in Hell #33: Addi is Unpopable
Click here to download this great show!!!! Seriously, I had so much fun interview the Balloonatic, Addi. I've know Addi for 20 years. We did radio at KFJC, when he was Andy Cadavar, and I was the Reverend Dah Wave. So many great stories.
Assi and his friend Charlie traveled the world together, placing extravagant baloon hats on people's heads and taking pictures to prove it. Amazing is all I can say. Addy is an interesting, interested, talented, and creative individual. I could have interviewed him the entire four hours, but there was too much good music to play tonight. Included in the good music, is Addi's own band, Unpopable. It features Henry Bermudez on guitar, and Addi on the Balloon Bass. You read correctly.
Take a look at their website here.
Take a look at their myspace here.
Take a look at Addi's youtube site here.
Addi also played live balloon bass solo in the studio this evening.
