Picture this:
April 2011… A lonely, little pink-haired Firechild..sitting behind a radio station mixing board playing great tunes, telling jokes, giving concert dates for your favorite bands, you know, like ya do, when in walks Mr. Program Director and says to Firechild, “I want you to have your own show where you play what you want and do what you want.” Firechild ponders this and says “Hmmmmmmm…. lemme work on that.”
Flash forward a month…
Firechild, while on the air one balmy Monday night, has a few friends hangin’ ’round the studio chatting during music sets. The first? The Beatles-obsessed, quirky, “what’s-he-gonna-say-next,” Brother Dave Carr. Along with scaring the bajeebers out of Firechild with his bizarre stories, he’s a laugh a second. Another sitter-in was DJ Ear, who Firechild had met approximately a year earlier but didn’t care too much for… (but he knows that!)
Shortly after, Firechild dragged in a few additional mics and handed out headphones so the and listeners could hear what the three were discussing (as she though it was pretty DARN entertaining!)
From that point, the Monday Night Meltdown easily morphed into a weekly talk/entertainment/music show with these three characters and, after a few shows, the trio realized they had something good and the recording began.
A few weeks in, a shy, quiet guy popped by to watch the crew in action and, unbeknownst to him, would end up behind a mic. He proved to be yet another perfect piece to the Meltdown puzzle… yes, it’s Brad-O with the Face for Radio (the best intern EVER!) and he ain’t shy no mo!
Between the four, we span four DECADES of life and experiences we bring to the show which our fans, the Melties, partake in weekly.
There are a bajillion radio shows trying to spread out and gain the attention of the masses, but we feel we have something truly special to share. In order to do so, we need your help, and it’s as easy as 1, 2, 3… ok, and 4.
First, tune in live, every Monday night on OCRockRadio.com or via Live365 or TuneIn Radio. Second, “like” our Facebook page and follow us on Twitter. Third, be a part of the show! Call, email, Tweet, IM, etc. Let us know you’re out there… and Fourth, spread the love! We can’t do it without you.
