Dicky Barrett

I was watching Criss Angel: Mindfreak last night and Dicky Barrett from the Bosstones was on there. Apparently he hosts a morning radio show. Guess the Bosstones won't be coming back any time soon.

yah I heard that his show on the radio in Cali is really popular. I wish it was syndicated or something.

Hey would be a good radio guy.

XHonusWagnerX - 1-5-2006 at 08:02 PM

7:00-10:00am Monday- Friday

www.indie1031.fm says you can listen online, but I dont know if you can listen to ALL the shows.

There are a bunch of 'celebrity' DJs. Rob Zombie, Crystal Method, Steve Jones....

I used to listen to indie103 stream online all the time, but...
they have the shittist commercals, and they only have like 5 of them, and they play them over, and over....
to the point where yo uwill want to pull your ears off.
if they only played the radio shows and the the bs it would be pretty damn good...

Where or how do I get that? I want to check his show out.

Ive had it on for 1/2 hour now and all ive heard is music and a few comercials. Do they play the actual morning show or is it just streaming music? I wanna hear Dicky!

Bosstones are definitely missed, one of the greats who broke through to the mainstream and then kept playing good music until the break up. Now all those late nineties radio homos think of them as a one hit wonder. I would like to hear his show too.

We were at a Ska show a few moons back and were sitting at a table having a couple drinks and these two kids at the table behind us were bitching that the DJ (very traditional type ska guy) wouldn't play the Bosstones. And I quote "I don't know why the fuckin' DJ won't play The Bosstones, they're the ones who invented ska." I laughed and laughed.

that is pretty funny, but the Bosstones are one of the bands that got me into Ska and made me go back and learn about more traditional bands like the Toasters and then back to the Skatelits, Madness, Specials etc.

I noticed they had the dudes from ANGEL CITY OUTCASTS on about a month ago.

clevohardcore - 1-6-2006 at 09:58 AM

The website says 7am-10am Monday- Friday. Im assuming that they dont play the show online, only the songs. I listened for almost an hour and all I heard was songs too.

XHonusWagnerX - 1-6-2006 at 11:58 AM

Dicky is on now.

XHonusWagnerX - 1-6-2006 at 12:45 PM

AHHHHHHH I get it... Im an idiot! It is 7am to 10am... but its WEST COAST TIME! Thast why I didnt hear anything for the first hour I listented!

Dicky is pretty funny!

defstarsteve - 1-6-2006 at 01:00 PM

yeah he lives in LA now...
west coast time..

he is pretty funny...
if they got rid of the damn annoying commercials I might start listening again...

Steve Jones show is funny as hell....

XHonusWagnerX - 1-6-2006 at 01:01 PM

someone should call in and talk about how he drew the cover for the DYS Brotherhood lp and ask about Impact Unit and the Cheapskates!

clevohardcore - 1-6-2006 at 03:05 PM

I listened a little bit. I am going to try and tune in more. good show. Makes me want to move out west. the earthquake thing bothers me though. I WANT TO LIVE IN THAT WEATHER.
