Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

Here, the only thing I might drown out will be the vocal warm ups of the chorus class, whose open door is 75 feet behind me.
However, it is their own fault as they insist on leaving the door open to their chorus room.
