This is a great ad. Way to tap into the funny way we interact with rock music, obviously this radio stations “brand”.

You wanna rock? Rock with us… the underlying message says with a grin.

Robert,

Yeah, I think this would definitely catch my eye if I were walking down the street in SLC. How many of us have played air guitar when no one was looking?

I need to pick it up more. Chip suggested I get a stand so it doesn’t sit packed away, so I did but I still haven’t gotten to really learning it.

Should be a new year’s resolution. I also pulled my harmonica out — gonna give Blue’s Traveler a run for their money!
