Studio Walls

     Every week I send my Minutia Men Co-Host Dave Stern a list from our audio archives for this week's Studio Walls feature. These are the possibilities for this week. Which one will he choose?

*October 24, 1975, Roxy Music releases their album Siren. You may or may not realize that this was a controversial album for Roxy die-hards. Best selling author James Finn Garner has some very strong feelings about this, and got into an argument with me about it during his Minutia Men interview.

*October 25, 1995, Poi Dog Pondering released their first Chicago album Pomegranate. We had guitarist Dag Juhlin on the show to talk about his time in the band.

*October 25 is also Bobby Knight's birthday. Paul M. Banks appeared on our show to talk about his book, and he has a story about being bullied by Bobby Knight.

*October 27, 2018, there was a terrible shooting in a synagogue in Pittsburgh. We had Mark Cuban on the show shortly after that shooting, and he revealed that he had friends who perished in that shooting.

*October 28 is actor Adam Bitterman's birthday. We had him on our show a few years ago, and he revealed that he was in Hebrew School with Dave when they were young.

*October 29 would have been Quiet Riot lead singer Kevin DuBrow's birthday. We had Loverboy's Doug Johnson on the show, and he told some stories about the legendary partying of DuBrow.

*October 29 is Denny Laine's birthday. We interviewed Denny when we filled in on WLS Radio a few years ago. (photo: Mark Hudson and Neil Innes also in the photo)
