Cody Goes to NYC (Blog 1)

Hello. It’s me, Cody. Let me start this by saying that I am the last person you would expect to see living in New York City. Born in Texas, I spent my teenage years on a farm in Pawnee, Oklahoma. I own cattle. Shoutouts to anyone from a big city that has never seen a cow. Out of a class of roughly 50 students, I graduated high school and went to college at Rogers State University, where I joined the 91.3 FM family and earned a degree in Communications. Over the past couple…continue reading →

Emily & Turbo: Rocklahoma in Review

Emily- If I had to describe my experience at Rocklahoma 2012 in just one word it would simply be AWESOME. The lineup for the whole weekend was great, but there were two performances that really stood out to me – SLASH and ROB ZOMBIE.

Accompanied by Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators, he performed songs from his solo album, Guns n’ Roses, and Velvet Revolver. It was a great…continue reading →
