Hello all!

My first post here,I would like to introduce myself a little.

Im Shawn (aka Glam Dude) and I am a DJ on Xwaveradio.I am sure a few of you are familiar with our station.(I am DJing now,and I have a really great synth set going on)

I have a huge collection of 80's music and I am really looking forward to meeting others who have the same music interests.

I like many of you survived the 80's somehow and in some aspects I never really left.

Anyways,as a teen in the 80's I used to listen to 'The Quake' and I am kind of looking for other people that used to listen to this station many years ago.

Look forward to meeting you!

Yep, great station. I have lots of songs swimming through my head from that period.

Many of my mystery songs from that time have been discovered here. You came to a great place.

The morning Quake show with Alex Bennett(he's on Sirius now) and Joe Regalski was the only other morning show that I've liked other than Howard Stern.

Welcome GlamDude! [:D] My friend from Cal State Long Beach who DJ-ed at KNAC (105.5 FM), left for the Quake when they switched to heavy metal! [:(] I listed a total of like 5 or 6 times in the '80s, when I visited San Francisco.

I really enjoyed Live 105 back in the day.
I also enjoyed The Quake for the short time I got to listen. After Live 105 stopped being the radio staion I enjoyed back in the day, I gave up on radio all together to feed my music fix.

Yes!!The Quake ruled!!,
Wow I cant believe you guys remember the DJ's even!

I was not able to go to that DOTG though,but I do remember when it happened.

What clubs/venue's did you all go to in SF 'back in the day'?I was a regular at the Mab(Mabuhay Gardens),The Farm,Ruthies Inn (Berkley) and a dozen other hole in the wall joints.

I am going to be visiting S.F next month and I plan on going to the DNA Lounge to see 'New Wave City'(Nov.4th).Have any of you been there before?
