Transcript of the Show
[INTRO]
Welcome to the 2021 Hard, Heavy & Hair Summer Cruisin’ Show! For the next two hours, it’s “Nothin’ But a Good Time.” Here’s Poison.
—————————————-
Poison – Nothin’ but a Good Time
—————————————-
It don’t get better than this! Two hours of hot Hard Rock, mood-lifting Metal, and good-times Hair Bands. This is the annual Hard, Heavy & Hair Summertime Special. Well, it’s ALMOST annual. I skipped the 2020 Summertime Special because we were all on lockdown all summer, and it seemed cruel to play songs made for backyard bar-b-queing, beach days and bonfire nights, and cruisin’ around with friends. But this Summer, we’re making up for the loss of last Summer by cramming as much music as possible into the show, AND by giving you another surprise I’ll tell you about in a few minutes.
In the meantime, I’m going to limit my talking this show. There’s no Cover Song of the Week, no Triple-Shot, not even a Female Fronted, though you will hear some killer female fronted Metal and Hard Rock. It’s all just music and minimal talk from me to maximize the music time.
My name, by the way, is Pariah Burke, and I’m your hard talking, heavy drinking, hairball of a horny hedonist host, and I love me some “California Girls.”
—————————————-
David Lee Roth – California Girls
Aldo Nova – Long Hot Summer

We have to break for just a moment for station identification, but when we come back, we’re gonna “Rock and Roll All Nite” with Kiss, Baton Rouge, and Hardbone. Stick around.
Crank it for Kiss and Greta Van Fleet, ’cause we’re gonna “Rock and Roll All Nite.”

I’ll tell you about that surprise I promised right after a brand new song from Robin McAuley, but first, this next one was the biggest song in the summer of 1970, but not by the artist about perform it. Covering the Guess Who’s “American Woman,” this is Lenny Kravitz.

New from MSG and Raiding the Rock Vault vocalist Robin McAuley, the song he wrote to embody summer time for his 2021 album, Standing on the Edge. You can watch my full interview with Robin on PariahRocks.com slash Interviews.
Also at PariahRocks.com, right now, is that surprise I was telling you about.
Because we all spent the summer of 2020 in lockdown, we didn’t do a Hard, Heavy & Hair 2020 Summertime Special. To make up for that, I’ve got ANOTHER 2 hours of all different feel-good Hard Rock, beach-blasting Heavy Metal, and cruisin’ around Hair Metal ready to stream right now, on-demand, as often as you want all summer. Combined with this show, which is up on June 25th for on-demand streaming to any Internet-connected device and bluetooth capable speaker or car stereo, that’s four full hours to soundtrack your summer fun. Oh, and that extra two hours? No talk at all; just music. Play them both as often as you like, all summer long.
Just hit PariahRocks.com and look for the 2021 Summertime Special. Both this show and the Extra 2 Summer Hours special are available for streaming from there. And, if you’re a Hard, Heavy & Hair Hero, you also get access to THIS show without any talk–just song after song of music. It’s pure “Paradise City.”

Are you feeling hot? You look hot. Mmm. You look damn, girl. Let’s turn down the lights and see how hot we can make it in here while everyone else listens to Cheap Trick, Downplay, and Slaughter. You won’t need those clothes, “The Summer Looks Good On You.”
