Hello Everyone,
Here is the recap of the February 9 edition of 105.9 Qwik-Rock's weekly local music program, "The Homegrown Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on Lion Country's Rock Station, 105.9 Qwik-Rock. The show can also be streamed via Qwik's website, www.1059qwikrock.com.

Receiving their first spins were new tunes from Gelatinous Cube, Alyssa Hankey, Little Buddy, Black Cat Moan, Jelli, Afraid Of Human, Homicide Black and Suicide Puppets. Along the way, we updated "Local Music News," dug into the archive to pull out a 2004 number from Ever Since Yesterday for this week's "Local Music Flashback," and stepped "Across State Lines" to remember Baltimore bluesman Reggie Wayne Morris (who passed away on February 4).

In Local Music News...
A former area musician gets to play flute on Stone Temple Pilots’ new album. Aeb Byrne, who played keys and flute during the early years of State College band favorites The Nightcrawlers, is playing flute on two songs on Stone Temple Pilots new acoustic-geared album, Perdida, which was released on Friday. Aeb appears on the songs “I Didn’t Know the Time” and “She’s My Queen.”
In a surprise development, Johnstown heavy metal rockers Darkness On The Radio are closing out their musical journey. Frontman and guitarist Jason Straw announced this past week that the group was ending its run on area stages.
And a reminder that next Sunday, February 16, is the day for the “Heaviest Fundraiser Ever” benefit show for Jen Johnstonbaugh, which takes place at McGarvey’s in Altoona. The bands Donny Burns & the 3rd Degree, Black Sun, Maul, E.N.D., Paradigm and Roadkill will donate their talents during the show. The event will starts at 3 p.m. Proceeds from the concert will help Jen " the wife of area drummer Darl Johnstonbaugh " as she is being treated for marginal zone B cell lymphoma.
