[Jim Price]

Here is the recap of the July 6 edition of Q94's "Backyard Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on WBXQ 94.3 FM.

Short and sweet, it was a first for the "Backyard Rocker" this night, as for the first time in the program's over ten-year history, it did not air this Sunday night, due to technical problems beyond our control. Our sincerest apologies!

Since this night's show, with guests Blakkjak and The Grimm's Kent and Bob, was prerecorded anyway, and since there are no guests scheduled for next Sunday, July 13, this night's missing program will air in its entirety next Sunday instead.

The upcoming schedule beyond next Sunday:

JULY 27 - 61 South
AUG. 3 - Nitekast
AUG. 10 - Don Hughes (tentative)
AUG. 24 - Ron Carnevali (Johnstown Folkfest preview)
AUG. 31 - Fast Forward Special
SEPT. 7 - Larry Nath
SEPT. 14 - The Lampshades
OCT. 5 - Acoustic Jam Special
OCT. 26 - Halloween Special
NOV. 16 - Clint Carothers/The Front
