Tune in Thursday February 26 at 8:00 p.m. to WRCT’s Court’s in Session when long time Alice Cooper lead guitarist, and fan favorite, Ryan Roxie, joins the show.
Alice Cooper has a reputation for having top guitarists in his ensemble. Ryan has had the longest run as lead guitarist — and songwriter — in Alice Cooper’s band, joining in 1996.
With a brand new single “Fight Another Day” — and its music video — out, Ryan will join your Rocking Attorney, Eric Jackson Lurie, to talk about getting back into the studio, touring with Alice Cooper, and his special bond with fans here in Pittsburgh.
Tune in Thursday February 26 at 8:00 p.m. to catch the interview and new single. Right here on WRCT, 88.3 FM Pittsburgh and streaming online at wrct.org. Replay to air Sunday March 1 at 10:00 p.m. EST.
WRCT is going to be playing 60 straight hours of music from our favorite artists from noon on Friday 2/20 to midnight on Sunday 2/22. Every half hour we’re going to be featuring a different artist that we’re obsessed with! Tune in to hear musicians you already love, and to find new ones to listen to, all hand-picked by WRCT DJs. We will also have 5 live bands over the course of the weekend, co-presented by IMO (Independent Musicians Organization).
This week on Forbes Avenue, we aired part of a conversation with science fiction author John Scalzi. Scalzi is known for his humorous and approachable fiction that ranges from space operas (his Interdependency and Old Man’s War series) to near-future fiction (his Lock-In and Dispatcher series) to standalone novels that are both humorous and thought-provoking (e.g., Red Shirts, Kaiju Preservation Society, and Starter Villain).
In this portion of our 2022 conversation, John discusses some of his writing strategies, some of his non-fiction writing, and his thoughts about blogging — whatever.scalzi.com has been a going concern since 1998. You’ll enjoy John Scalzi’s engaging remarks!
