REMEMBERING OFFSHORE PIRATE RADIO IN THE UK In the mid 1960s  it was difficult for the youth to actually listen to Rock and Roll in the UK.  The BBC actually ran only a few hours a weekend to provide the young Brits with this outlet.  At night during the week they ventured to even tune into Radio Luxembourg to get there fill, that broadcast rock and pop around the clock.  To fill this void some venture capitalists decided to bring in commercial radio aboard refitted radio ships.  And anchor themselves just  off into International waters off the English coast.  Radio Caroline (named after Caroline Kennedy the U.S. President's daughter at the time) and  Radio London being the most famous.  Rock-it Radio  has a website dedicated to their ventures  and also have actual radio broadcasts available of these offshore pirates.  We invite you to check them out our webpage at: http://www.rockitradio.net/pirate.html

FINDING ROCK-IT RADIO ON THE 'TUNE IN RADIO' CELL PHONE APP. We have had a few requests from listeners that they couldn't find us on the popular 'Tune in Radio' App. on Android and PC and iphones.  Running a search of 'Rock-it Radio' will actually list 100s of Rock stations.  So, the best way to find us on this very thorough and extensive app. that I love using myself is - run a search on 'rockabilly' - there you will easily find Rock-it Radio listed.

Rockabilly bands looking for airplay If you or know someone that would like airplay on Rock-it Radio we invite you to submit your press kits to Rock-it Radio.  Our website for further information is: http://www.rockitradio.net/airplay.html ============================================ Come tune into  the World on your computer! 1000s of stations around the world now broadcast online.  We have a link to some of the internet top directories to help you find these stations. http://www.rockitradio.net/internetradio.html ============================================ Rock-it Radio Program Webpage Reminder Remember, if the show that you want to hear is getting close to the bottom   of the list of radio shows, you should tune in as soon as you can. These shows to have a high audio quality require a lot of internet bandwidth and memory.   And currently we can only afford the 30 latest shows online here at Rock-it Radio.  So, when a new show is put online it knocks the oldest one off the Rock-it Radio   archives page.  Usually a show will at least last 16 to 20 days, once it is placed in   the archives. ============================================ OUR SISTER STATION FIRST NATIONS BROADCASTING. We invite you to also check out our sister station -- First Nations Broadcasting. And tune into the rather Cool North of the Yukon and Alaska   with our very own Debbie Snowdove! http://www.rockitradio.net/upnorth.html  ============================================  Well that is just about it for this newsletter and playlists of our latest shows. We hope that you enjoy them. We will do our best to keep these shows on for at least 14 days and hopefully 21 days. All the best always, Bennie Dingo Rock-it Radio e mail:  rockitradio@netzero.net website: http://www.rockitradio.net facebook:  http://www.facebook.com/bennie.dingo
