Jesus, I am so sick and tired of crap off of the usual "air" radio stations...... Thank you for the fresh new (old) music that I grew up listening to! rock rock till you drop.

A 40 year old fan,

Thanks for continuing to put together the best metal radio stream on the 'net!

I recently discovered Live365, and man, was I stoked to find your station! I listen all day at work, and the great tunes you play definitely help make the work day better. One request, though: you CAN'T call yourself an 80s metal station without a couple of songs on your playlist from the most famous metal band from the entire decade: SPINAL TAP!

Keep it up, dude!

Hello, I´m from Germany and I hear your great Music.
It´s wonderful to hear this Special sound.
Sorry for my English.

Stay Heavy,
Detlef ( a Metalmaniac from Germany )

SKID- Your playlist rocks! I was in high school when most of these bands were still small enough to go to house parties that I went to - Metallica, Judas Priest, Dokken etc. I had forgotten alot of these songs, but once I heard them, I remembered every word. This station was a great discovery on a night I had to stay late in the office when everyone else was gone. I would have been falling asleep and getting nothing done if I hadn’t stumbled across you guys. My keyboard isn’t too happy with all the pounding though. I’m gonna go drive 120 mph now - thanx!
p.s.-You need a channel on Sirius-the other metal one kind of sucks.;

Thank you,
Todd

Hello, You have Rockin' Station- Congratulations !!! Being the Zep fan that I have been for 35 Years, I know a good Zep song when I hear one. My email address shows "The Rover", of course ! I see that your Top 40, shows Zep's "Since I've Been Loving You". I have always thought that their live version of SIBLY, as seen and heard in their movie, THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME, is one of best versions of that song, -EVER- ! Can you play that live version on Skid Rowe Radio ? ? I think that would kick everybody's arse !!

Dude!
GREAT content and rotation!! Rock on!!

Russ

Too much Bruce Dickenson, I like Iron Maiden, but come on play something different. I seem to hear Bruce Dickenson singing a song every 15 minutes. I like RIOT you seem to play them alot, which is good, maybe more UFO and Michael Schenker. Thanks, Keep up the Metal!

Andy in Mattawan, Michigan

THANK YOU GREATLY for playing UFO, SCHENKER, SCORPIONS, early (!) MAIDEN, BLACK SABBATH, JUDAS PRIEST, ZEPPELIN, ACDC, BOC, the ever-so-awesome Pattison/Schenker Summit album, & Pat Travers too. Ok, the early Sammy Hagar is cool also. Play more Hagar-era Montrose, early Savatage (hey, what an idea!), early Metallica (yes, MORE), & more Robin Trower. What else... maybe more early Aerosmith & Ted Nugent as well please.
Right, I'll stop now. Thanks very much for the great tunes & keep up the good work.
Regards,
Ben

Dude, Of all of the stations on Live365 yours is the best!! Back in the late 70's and early 80's in the South Side of Chicago we banged our heads, now I can go back and headbang all over again listening to your station. Ok now for my request; Any Triumph, Anthrax (first LP only), Angel (fist LP only), and Any Thin Lizzy!! Keep us Metal Heads Rockin' !!!

Mark

Hi Skid, I recently started listening to your station, and I'm enjoying it so far, but I wanted to ask if there's any chance you can add some Loudness and Yngwie Malmsteen to your play list?
MetalBarb

Hi, thanks for creating some great music. You play a lot of songs that I love. I'm glad you added some Pat Travers. You even have me converted to UFO.
Thanks, John

I just wanted to drop you a quick message to let you know that I think your station ROCKS!! Being an 'old school' metal/hard rock fan, it is difficult to find stations like this. This music keeps the work day a little more bearable.
Keep up the great work.

Hello, just to say that SkidRoweRadio is great. We do like this stuff in France as well. Thanks for the good time !
Thierry

Excellent quality radio, and perhaps the best Classic-Metal Radio ever!
Marco

Hey, Just wanted to let you know I stumbled on to your Live365 station a few weeks ago and think you're doing an awesome job!!!! Thankfully my job allows me to listen to music while I'm working because the station has gotten me thru some long days. I'm an old school metal head myself and I'm frequently on trips down memory lane thanks to you. My first Metal show ever was Judas Priest and Iron Maiden on the Point of Entry/Killers tour when I was 14 back in 1981. The first Motorhead song I ever heard was White Line Fever around the same time and I've been a fan of all three ever since. I took a lot of crap back then for being into a lot of the NWOBHM stuff. Glad to see there are some fellow Riot, Y&T, Thin Lizzy, MSG and UFO fans out there and one representing as well as you do. Keep it up, you're doing a kick ass job.

Dude, I love your station! I keep it on all day at work. Can't hear this stuff on the radio anymore. Keep the good tunes coming and throw in a little TNT & Lillian Axe every now and then if you can. Rock on!!!!!!!!!!

And how did you break into my house and copy my entire cd collection??? Keep it up!!!!!

Just found the station and I am LOVIN' it! If you take requests... How about some GARY MOORE... !!

Thank you!
Patrick

Hi, thanks for providing such an excellent radio station. You've the right mix, the songs are also my favorite ones. I listen to your station almost every day. Btw., how to join the Hall of Fame? [you just did!]
Have a good time!

You kick ass! You play all the music I grew up with. You seem to know the right artists. Keep up the good work. Whatever you do, never go off the air. Keep Rockin'!

Your station ROCKS - I just marked it as my favorite on Live 365.

Hey man, you rock. Keep it up! We use to have a rebel station here called RPM - WVVX 103.1
REAL PRECIOUS METAL - YOUR STATION REMINDS ME SO MUCH OF IT.
Aaahhhhh, those were the days !!!!!! 1983 - 1993

Hey Man, I know this may sound strange, but I do believe there’s a good chance that we’re twins, separated at birth.  You play ALL the stuff I listen to and cut my metal teeth on, as it were, in San Antonio in the late 70s and all through the 80s. Take that MSG “Desert Song” you just played. It’s my fav song from that album. Dig the Saxon and Riot and Judas Priest (The Rage? No one plays that!). Love the early Maiden too. Thanx for rockin’ me out so excellently! Keep up the great work.

-Scott

I listened to both stations.... They were both excellent. I also dug listening to Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Thin Lizzy. I think it is amazing that most of these guys are still at it. Thanks for your efforts!

-Jim

My name is John and love your station, just e-mailing to say thanks for getting me through the college day, keep up the great work.

-John

Hey Skid, Just dropping you a line to let you know that I nominated you for best hard rock station and I hope others do the same!

-Leo - KBUZ-The Wolf

I really love your station. You have great variety, love the classic metal not the speed or that new stuff but old school heavy metal. The old BOC is great. I've been listening to it at work for the past 4 months all day long at my pc and it's great. Keep up the awesome work.

-John

You play the best tunes, much kudo's. ah! (I'm listening right now) I hear Biff Byford. I swear we must have the same music library. Thank's for playin Montrose too, that dude's sound is 1 of a kind. Have a good 1!

-Todd

Skidrowe Radio is awesome! All the classic metal stuff I love plus some Christian metal mixed in, too. I listen all the time. It's incredible how alike our music taste is (UFO, Gary Moore, Schenker, Iron M., Scorps, JP, Saxon, etc.).

All the best,
-Dan

Finally, a great music station , just want to say thanks!

-Paul

All I gotta say is it's pretty bizarre how we have the same taste in tune's. You play SO many of the same band's, album's & cut's I grew up with. I'm 37 & live in Pa & was & always will be a headbanger. From Traver's, to MSG & Dio Sabbath (my fave), to of course Maiden, I always's enjoy tuning in & hearing what kind of flashback I might get. I just wanted to say, good job & up the irons! Have a good 1,

-Todd

Yo skidrowe, I've been visiting Live365 radio, and got to your station... I really liked what you play there!

Thanks

I love this internet radio which fills the void left in broadcast radio. You have a great station and do a great job. I will continue to listen and spread the word with my 80's metal friends.

-Ken

I really like your choice of selections. Particularly the large amounts of Iron Maiden and Judas Priest, especially how they usually seem to be played immediately one after the other. Thanks,

-Shaun

Hey there.. just wanted to tell your station rocks. I listen to it when online playing rpg games.

-Ron

I just made your station my favorite. For every hour I hear at least 40% of the selections that are covers done by all the bands I've been in the past 25 yrs. The odd thing about that is, songs like "Road Racin'", people would come up after the gig & say" Was that one of your originals?"(Canadian radio leaves alot to be desired is an understatment) Keep surprising me.

-Ian

Hi, just to tell you that you've got a damn excellent station: my favorite. Keep up the good work. Kind regards.

-Didier

I just found your channel on live365 and I've got to say its the best hard rock/metal station I've come across. Sure, music is a matter of taste. But I'm glad there is someone out there who likes what I like. Keep up the good work.

-Adrian

Great job.... man after my own heart with the music... how about an all Maiden & Saxon station....

-John

I keep your station on all day at work, keep up the good work, nice hearing from you... Cheers,

-Roger

I happened upon your site via live 365. Never thought I'd find Bride, Whitecross, Iron Maiden, and Judas Priest all together. I like it. Are you a Christian that still likes good metal from time to time (that's me)? or do you just know some good fret work when you hear it, so you don't put out the Christian bands? In any case I love what I'm hearing, thanks.

-Tim

What can I say? Love the radio station but you've made me extremely lazy 'cause I don't even have to put a CD in now when I'm surfin'. Keep up the good work and thanks again.
