Pierre's Interviews:

Thursday afternoon, I had the chance to speak with the lead vocalist of one of my favorite bands, RIVAL SONS. They just released their 3rd album in the USA (March 19th) called Head Down. It's an amazing record. Jay and I discussed many a topic in the hour we conversed. We talked about the new record, Rock N Roll, Snowboarding, Touring, and a whole lot more. I really enjoyed our conversation and I hope you do as well. Get more information about Rival Sons at Their Facebook Page, HERE. Or, go to their website, HERE. And, don't forget to follow Rival Sons on Twitter. Thank you so much for listening,

The ACS Bike A Thon is 4000 bikers riding from the Ben Franklin Bridge in Philly to Buena Vista, NJ. We are raising money to fight cancer. All moneys raised in the ACS Bike A Thon are used locally to fund cancer research. Information can be gotten on the ACS BIKEATHON Facebook Page, HERE. Also, you can sign up to ride with TEAM WMMR, here. All ACS bike info is HERE. Or, you can call 215.985.5300. Thanks so much for listening. Let's put an end to this awful disease.
