"For your pleasure in our present state

Part false, part true, like anything

We present ourselves" 

*LAST is the final offering in the 20th year of RFW,

 with FIRST being the start of our 21st.

On September 30th, 2006,

I hatched a dream based on my belief that there were others out there like you:

Intelligent-Adventurous-Music Lovers

that understand that we know "the hits" because someone else picked them out for us

and others drove them into the ground playing them ad infinitem,
and it continues to this day.

Here, Hal and I steal them back and dress them with new line-partners.

My search was and continues to be for You.

Thanks for your ears - Let's Rock On!

As a storied presence on the radio (WBCN, WTBS/WMBR, WFNX), in the clubs of Boston (Spit/Metro), an avid listener and presenter of music, a Verger of the Trinity Episcopal Church of Cranford NJ, and a sponsor and aid provider to people in need.
 Most of all, Tony is a Very Good Man.

"and your infections can be cured by

cutting them out"

* We lost one Boston's favorite sons with the passing of Jeff "Monoman" Conolly.
He was rock & roll in it's purest form and a friend for over 50 years.
Let's sprinkle some sawdust on the studio floor,
play some DMZ and Lyres
and I'll use our energy to speed-up my recent surgical recovery
(all is good, thank you).

Be well - Rock on!
