Favoriting November 6, 2024: THE METAL DISTRICT III, with Evan "Snake" Davies

Listen to this show: Pop-up listen Pop-up player!

The return of THE METAL DISTRICT, hosted by Evan "Snake" Davies!

My hair-metal and hard-rock loving cousin returns for the third installment of THE METAL DISTRICT! These shows are inspired by:

1. Z-ROCK, the nationally syndicated hard-rock radio network based in Texas and heard on 1480 AM in NYC in the late '80s and early '90s (iirc).
2. WAPP radio's commercial-free summer in 1982. 3. The U68 Power Hour, which showed hair metal and hard rock music videos at 11m on Channel 68 in the NJ/NYC area
4. The very early days of Q104.3 in NYC, before they became a classic rock station.

Honestly I woke up this morning feeling like not doing anything at all today, especially a show like this that feels so upbeat and fun to me. But maybe that's exactly the reason to go ahead as planned. If you need a distraction for a few hours... well, here it is. And if this music isn't your thing there are alternate streams and archived shows that you can check out.

Be nice to each other.

Keep up with all the latest EFD show news and more!

Hey Snake. Check out hard rockin' band Junkyard. Formed in the late 80's, it featured Brian Baker (Dag Nasty/Bad Religion), Chris Gates (Big Boys), Todd Muscat (Decry).

Hmmm am I sure about anything right now?
I remember subsequent openings all around with locations added (L'amour East). That whole area was old garages and warehouses that all look the same.
2001 was on 64th Street but I was too young to go there and wasn't interested.
L'amour (La Morz as the locals referred to it) opened right when I started going to shows.
Short answer? You are probably right, there wasn't much else going on up there and L'amour in fact was originally conceived as a disco it eventually changed formats.
Saw Biohazard there later in high school.

There are even a few clips from that movie interspersed and Penelope Spheeris is one of the interviewees.

Maybe for the next Metal District, make it Nu Metal District? Lots of Korn, Slipknot, Limp Bizkit, and Linkin Park. I think the WFMU listeners would respond really positively to that.
