I'm Randy Katen and my show is GENERATION X

I was born and razed in Sacramento California. My love of music started out when I was 10 or so with Janis, Jimmy and all the 70 greats. However, I never played along with the masses and thought that popular was good in any aspect. I was the upstart, the rebel, the Skateboarder, the Snowboarder so when this ( X ) generation of bored teenagers took flight I was part of the flock. Being a professional skateboarder and skating in San Francisco and the Bay area almost all the time from 79-84 put in me the western hub of the new wave, punk, alternative music seen, and I was lucky enough to see a lot of bands on their (sometimes) one and only U.S. tour. I will fill you in on some History of Bands and you will here some Interviews with some of the greats of the music. Listen to my show and hear music that is fast and energizing! Be careful. If you play it in your car you will get a speeding ticket!  .
