50 Years Of Music At Pine Knob – Meltdown
I’m so glad things are back to normal. Concerts goers filling up Pine Knob weekly, it’s like the olden times….like 3 years ago!
I’ll be broadcasting live at the Kid Rock show tonight in the Tree Top lounge area, behind the hill. Swing by for some grub or a cocktail or six before the K.I.D. takes to the stage.
Before heading in, take a look at the picture montage on the wall near the west entrance. Such a rich history of all sorts of musical acts that have graced the Pine Knob stage. We truly are lucky, as most acts make our area a stop on their tours. As I’ve talked about before, bands love playing to midwest crowds, and they tell me all the time…and not just on the air during interviews.
See you at the show!
-Meltdown-
Meltdown started on the mighty WRIF on the evening of Halloween, 1995. Technically, his first on-air shift was the morning of November 1st. Moving to the Motor City from Buffalo, N.Y., he has built a career and family. Over his almost three-decade stint at RIFF, he's had the privilege to work with some of the biggest personalities in Detroit radio history. He boasts of being just the second-afternoon drive jock in the station's illustrious 53-year history.
Along with his love for rock music and attending concerts, he's also an avid Harley-Davidson enthusiast and hockey player. He plays year-round and manages to squeeze in a few charity games throughout the year. Meltdown writes about the Detroit Red Wings, rock music, and Detroit concert venues.
