I just read your book. It is a magnificent read and remarkable story by a very intelligent man. It goes to show what one can accomplish when one follows goals. You can be very proud.😉
Not sure if you're still able to see comments on here but THANK YOU so much for sharing this! Richard, you were such a HUGE part of my teenage years growing up in high school when I first started listening to the famous K-ROQ in the mid 1980's. I attended Nogales High School in La Puente CA from Sept '85 until I graduated in June '89 and listened to the best station ever back then, even when I moved out to Fontana CA back in late 1987, sometimes I couldn't get KROQ's station too clearly but I didn't care I would still listen with static & what not, lol..I will always remember when you came out onstage at the Rosebowl for the 101 concert to tell us that we were all going to be a part of that night, DM's infamous 101 concert. I along with the rest of the sixty something thousand fans screamed their hearts out, went wild, jumped up and down and knew they were experiencing something that would go down in the books and would be something so special and something the band and the fans would forever hold close to their heart
Mr. Blade, this was exciting to see your studio room because I listen to you on First Wave every day, and my favorite band is of course Depeche. That was cool for you to show how you have so much Dm around you. :) That was really neat they gave those special albums to you. You deserve it. You are my favorite DJ! Take care. ~debbie
I'm.absolutely enthralled with your Book, Richard. You're like a cool piece of thread woven thru the fabric of the 80s. Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. Glad you didn't keep the name Richard Runner. Btw😅
