I began spinning the new wave sounds when they were NEW wave sounds , working in various underground clubs in Philadelphia during the gritty era of 1981-1990. From off-radar spots like The Love Club to commanding nights at Philly's premier alternative hotspots The Kennel Club, Omni's and a few special nights at Danceteria in NYC, the Rock of the 80s became my passion. Since 2003, I've helped shape Philly's nightlife scene by introducing the genre to a whole new generation of ears with my monthly Sex Dwarf party every first Friday at Fluid to hosting Land Of The Lost; a monthly 4-hour block of the Rock of the 80s on WXPN-FM in Philadelphia, to bringing authentic 80s bands back to the city for live concerts... it's all about the music! |
