Hello Everyone,

Here is the recap of the September 14 edition of Q94's weekly local music program, "The Backyard Rocker," which airs every Sunday night from 8 to 10 PM on WBRX 94.3 and WBXQ 94.7.

Occasionally, when we book a band as a guest several months in advance, situations change and some bands don't make it to their scheduled appearance. Since booking them several months back, The Keystone All Stars have gone on hiatus, and elected to bypass their scheduled appearance on the "Backyard Rocker" this week.

So instead, we used this week's show to showcase a lot of new music we've received recently, and get caught up on various happenings on the area music scene. Along the way, we debuted new songs from Halestorm, Tempered Edge, Three Broken Dolls, Velveeta, Mike Dugan & the Blues Mission, Aixelsyd and No Refill. We also dug into the local music archives for a 1988 recording from Paragon.

This week's playlist:

HOUR ONE:

ROADKILL - "I Wanna Be An Ex-Boyfriend of Alanis Morisette"
HALESTORM - "I Bleed"
