One of my fondest childhood memories was listening to the Top-40 am station in Milwaukee- WOKY on a little transister radio when I was a wee lad of 7. Boy did I love that pop coming from the UK...early Beatles, Hollies, Herman's Hermits, how about Do the Freddy and Catch us if You Can by the Dave Clark 5. Musically, I came of age in the roaring early and mid-70's. Informed more by crunching hard rock than by the hippy days. I launched RADIO BASE CAMP in November '07 I've been hosting my RADIO BASE CAMP weekly on the greatest listener-supported radio station in the US of A: WPKN 89.5 FM in Bridgeport, CT and 88.7 WPKM in Montauk, NY.  I own a trade magazine that has nothing to do with music...in fact it's in the golf business. But I am passionate about music, like all of us out here with stations. Support live music! I lived in NYC for many years...caught loads of live acts and spent a lot on vinyl, cassettes and then CD's. My musical eyes and ears over the years have been great radio stations like WPKN in Bridgeport, CT (great!)_, WFUV in NYC, KCRW in Santa Monica and press like the NME...CMJ, Blender, Time Out and others.... I used to DJ in D.C. during college during the Punk/New Wave/Ska era. Had loads of fun doing it. Worked at The Bayou which was a great venue to see bands coming through DC. Have fond memories of early 9:30 Club gigs there as well. So many great clubs over the years in NYC...CBGB, The Pyramid Club, Arlene Grocery, Max's, Danceteria, Irving Plaza, SOB's and let's not forget Maxwells in Hoboken.
