SEPTEMBER 2024 It’s time to catch up! We have been adding rare stompers and rockers and sequencing and chip-chopping and we are still working at making Kicksville Radio everything you want it to be- chock full of the real deal sounds that can’t be purveyed round the clock by other outlets, mostly because they don’t have the records! Our goal is to have you listeners chime in with your own playlists for sharing. Send us a Get Your Kicks Six Pack of rarities or stompers or stormers or smoochers of whatever over-modulated mayhem your collection has to profer. So yes, we’ve been working, with the same goals for good times and great sounds, and we are ready to rumble!
SUMMER 2024 We kicked off this summer with a Kicks Books launch party for HALBSTARK BABY-BABY HALBSTARK at FROSCH&CO gallery. Watch for complete summer roundup coming Sept. 1.
Dateline NYC Sat 11/26 Hey, everyone! And so begins our first weekend in Kicksville! Today, along with our regular non-stop 24/7 all-the-time, never-ending, relentless, ceaseless array of no-count magnificence comes a couple of special scheduled time slots! Every Saturday we feature Crashing Classics, meaning episodes of Crashing The Party - we will air two shows back-to-back. Today for this holiday weekend, we will treat youse all to our very first show many years ago now - CTP #1 - wherein Marc and Miriam spin the rarities and scarcities of doowops, with an emphasis (as always) on the lesser know artists and labels, hoping to expand the vocal group scenery for Kicksters home and away. We follow it up with our Kicksville Klassic interview show with DION! This show is essential. We had Dion in at the klubhouse for the afternoon and he let it all hang out. Check this Doo-Wop Double Dose out starting at 5PM EST (that’s like 2 PM West Coast, 10PM London, etc. We will try to add a time zone calculator for you math flunkies!). You can definitely catch Kicksville around the world on two platforms - either the KICKSVILLE KLUBHOUSE or KICKSVILLE at TuneIn! Any problems write us a nasty letter here and we'll do our darndest to turn that frown upside down.
The new episodes of Crashing The Party will continue to roll up every Monday after school at 5PM EST with an early Klassic to follow, so catch double trouble with Crashing twice a week. Today and throughout the week, we are also going to shoot out a blast called THEE MIDNITE FEELING which will be readjusting your horizontal with sounds you have never heard, and answering some requests to hear what's hiding in the vaults here at Nortonville/Kicksville. Feel free to send your inquiries about recordings on Norton or stories in Kicks to us here KICKSVILLE KWESTIONS. THEE MIDNITE FEELING is due worldwide at midnight EST. Catch it! Tonite we will reveal unissued acetate glory from the enigmatic CASH HOLIDAY and other no-counts of considerable magnitude, as determined on the patented Kicksville raunch-o-meter. This show is a midnight snack that could go anywhere. And everywhere! Tonite it goes to snarly acetates from our zero-heroes! Come along, young wombats...
Join us at Kicksville Radio as we grow the station into the ultimate home for truly unruly music! Tune in or take off, children! Be in touch, dear beloved no-counts and nou-countesses!
FRIDAY OCT 27 4 PM • KICKSVILLE KALLING... TOMMY JAMES! Join us for our exclusive chat with Tommy James that is guaranteed to make you say, "I did not know that!" From his days as young Tommy Jackson in his record shop clerk in Niles, Michigan, selling records to Dion DiMucci to forming Tom and The Tornadoes to coveting the chart success of his local pals the Rivieras to his Bob Mack/ Mad Mike /Morris Levy "Hanky Panky" days to crossing paths with Bobby Fuller - we get the scoops, and then some as we engage in some hero worship with the legendary TJ - recording super star, solid gold songwriter, touring sensation, author, and radio jock (among other things)! Our TJ blast plays at 4 PM Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Join us with Tommy this weekend. Be prepared for some exclusive revelations from the cat whose rise to stardom is the wildest tale in chartdom and a record collector's delight - from the insanity of his snotty, bratty, unkillable Snap label garage basher Hanky Panky to chart busters including Draggin' The Line, Mony Mony, Crimson and Clover, Mirage, I Think We're Alone Now, Crystal Blue Persuasion and of course Judy and Long Ponytail (!) - Tommy has recorded over 240 of his own compositions and a ton more from the best writers in the biz (next to him, of course)! We love him and we're stoked to bring this Kicksville Konversation to you! Then prepare to blast off for our 1st Annual Kicksville Halloween Marathon which kicks off at midnight on Tuesday!!
