The Fish + Dan Day on 104.5/104.9 theX were a great duo.

Brought lots of live music to the Varsity and Texas Club, even X-Fest at the River Center with The Killers, Jet, AFI…big names. Always has the bands in studio.

Brian Rushing was a great guy and good friend. Died way to young.

Yes Buddy Songy is on Tigers Roar with Jonathan Poche on Pelican TV. They are on youtube and pretty much do a show a week and its not a bad show. Mike Scarborough from TigerBait.com is usually a guest.

LINK Speaking of Buggs, Clarence has his show there too and at one point Kevin Gallagher and Bill Profita did. When 107.3 let them all go I quit listening.

Long live Scotty Drake.

Dan day moved out to miami. Dude sometimes posts on FB about hosting trivia night at this bar out there. Doing radio in Miami has to be an upgrade from radio in BR.

I really miss their ‘TigerTrax’ mash ups during the Carlos Carson


Was that where they did an "interview" and all the answers were song clips? Loves that stuff when I was a kid.

Rant Radio featuring Karma as the host with guest hosts Cocomo & Slow Flow Pro.


ETA: I once heard TD's very own Rouge on a radio show as well.

His brother was the part of 'Rag' who posted like a jackass and antagonized everyone. They shared the account.

What is your percentage of this being true?

Has anyone mentioned JR "Cajun Chow Hound", and also Chucker yet? Didn't life turn out bad for both?

Beat me to Ross & Wilson; they got started here but soon moved on the bigger markets. Wish I could remember some of their routines but they had some funny stuff.
