Todays set list ‘MAGIC SANDS” Was born at sunset on the beach at Mountain. As I sat there listening to my music, watching the Sun Set over the Catalina V’s…  I saw this train of 100 Pelicans glide across the horizon… It was a spectacular event to witness – and I felt this huge wave of gratitude wash over me… I felt so blessed to have the opportunity to share the music that inspires me with my listeners... So I hope you enjoy this special set list of tunes crafted from the heart, on the sand at the beach...

Cheers

So… the way this show came together >> is a story on its own… I was planning on doing a Japan Punk Show for this episode  - inspired by our Japan trip last week. So, I put together my set list of Japan Punk songs… Everything was set to go, then Lex here at the station reminded me that this is “KX DJ TAKEOVER WEEK” where the hosts hand over the mic to a guest DJ. So… I figured that Kathe (My wife) would be perfect to take over this episode and My Show ALIVE WE RIDE – right here on KXFM Radio 104.7 – especially since we just spent 15 days in Japan Together   So, I asked Kathe if she wanted to do it – Thankfully she agreed.

It's personally one of my all-time favorite Episodes...

Enjoy.

For this episode of Alive WE Ride EP28, I am brodcasting a Live... Pre-recorded show from my hotel room in Tokyo, Japan. Like I said before in the description for EP27... I will not allow a generic programmed set-list of songs that do not fit the vibe of ALIVE WE RIDE... Ever! 

So thank you sticking with while I'm out of the counrtry... 

Enjoy!

This set list should to hold us over while out of town, Surfing the Wave Park in Seoul South Korea... My VO's are live from my hotel room in Seoul, so I hope ya'll apprecite the fact that we avoided the boring preset music for shows that do not proved a set list. I would be beating myself up if I did not do that.

I hope you enjoy it.

Peace

For this episode, we are Celebrating The B-52’s & DEVO... The entire show is dedicated to these Legendary 80’s Artists.

For the first half we are dancing with The B-52’s, Then we DEVOLVE into SPUDS gettin' weird with The Worlds Greatest Art Band... DEVO.

Enjoy

For today’s show – we are going on a Global journey, ISLAND HOPING and TIME TRAVELING through the WORLD of PUNK MUSIC. Every song and every band in this set list for the show, was born on an Island… Think The British Isles, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, and Hawaii… 

The Time Machine is set in 1970 to present day, raging with legendary Punk Bands like THE CLASH, SEX PISTOLS and STIFF LITTLE FINGERS.  

The biggest discovery I made for this episode is a band from Okinawa Japan... JIGOKUGURUMA

If you like powerful metal punk with a headbangin beat - JIGOKUGURUMA will light your fire!

There are many more underground Punk Bands featured in this Episode I'm calling "Island Punkers"

Enjoy the Ride...

Punk Island Style.

For today’s show – we are going back to the source… Back to Punk Music. Ever since The Davey Jones Punk show (EP21) I new that I had to throw down another Punk Mix.

Since then, I have discovered that there are more punks out there than I thought – so this show is for All you SHREDDERS and FROTHERS out there… The WEATHER is here wish you WERE nice…

Thanks for listening and enjoy the show.

Episode 23 is a very special show  – one that is close to my heart… Joining me in studio, is my favorite Son Dante Madrigal aka Happy Mad. After two days of heckling and announcing at the 58th Brooks Street Surf Contest - we’re back together again - with Microphones in our faces.

On this show - I put Dante in charge of the music. Whenever we travel together – especially on Road Trips - I have Dante to handle the tunes.  it’s always an interesting mix and there’s no doubt that his father taught him well… And like all of our Road Trips, I asked Dante to handle the music for this show.

The sound track Dante created is deeply personal - highlighting the bands have influenced his life From day one to now.

This Dantes third appearance on ALIVE WE RIDE  but his first solo act as the co-host…
And like any good host, he ame prepared and knocked it out of the park!

Enjoy!

Are you willing to break your back, trekking for miles-  lugging a 50lb backpack – up and down rugged mountains, alongside rocky  riverbanks in a land ruled by mountain lions and bears ?   Have you ever wanted to truly unplug from society, disappear in the wilderness and lock into mother nature?   How bout just wanting to challenge yourself and share a new experience with your bros.   The Big Question is… Are you willing to risk life and limb just to catch a fish?   Well, I am, and we just did – our Final Destination - The Legendary KERN RIVER.  

Our mission – To come together as BAND OF BROTHERS – searching for that Sublime feeling of A WILD RAINBOW tugging  your line.

On Episode 22_Kern River Pirates, we relive our epic adventure in search of the native Kern River Rainbow.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Cheers

Finally... The Punk Show is Here! 

After months of preparation, Dags joins forces with special guest "Davey Jones." 

Davey Jones has a long history - rolling with the sickest punk bands from the 80's.

We talk story about his experiences growning up as a punker in Bakersfield and eventually moshing his way into Laguna.

I'm super proud of the show and the set list of songs we play might be the best ones ever aired on KXFM...

So...
If you like high energy, fast paced, full-throttle music, then this show is for you!

Enjoy.
