FIVE YEARS of STERBYROCKRADIO!


If you've been to a Storm Davis and/or PDP show in the past 2 years, you've no doubt noted the mysterious man downing Heinekens between scratch sessions onstage behind the crew. That there is STERBYROCK, officially a member of the Poorly Drawn for a shade over a year now, but most certainly down since day one.

Today he celebrates a big anniversary, and SD would be remiss to miss a chance to publicly note the event, and say thanks to the man that makes sure there's music to distract you from his constant droning.

So, thanks, Sterby. And congrats.

The 'official article', from poorlydrawnpeople.com:

Congrats & big ups to PDP's resident steelwheelworker, DJ STERBYROCK, who today celebrates FIVE YEARS of his Warped Wax Wednesdays/Afterschool Special radio show on 90.3 WRIU FM.

For those not in the know, Sterby and a roving cast of guest hosts (including Swerve One and Poorly Drawn's own Reason AKA Reason's Radio Personality) keep True School hip hop alive on a weekly basis with Rhode Island's highest rated and longest running underground hip hop show.

Sterby first hit the RIU airwaves alongside DJ Joeywonk (who has appeared on PDP releases like Gemini Slang, Kegstand Poetry, and Shoot For The Stars, Hit The Ceiling) in 2003 and soon took over for original Afterschool Special host Jaypee in the Wednesday slot. Past guests have included Akrobatik, K-Solo, Canibus, King Tech, and more local emcees and deejays than you can shake a Sterbystick(tm) at.

You can tune into the show from tha innanetz at www.wriu.org every Wednesday from 3-6pm EST.

Downloads of past mixshows are available in the links section of this page right here, so get to clicking.

CONGRATULATIONS STERBYROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
