NewYorkNightTrain Wednesdays w/guest DJ Bill Whitten from Grand Mal September 12, 2007

Wednesday, September 12, New York Night Train's soul proprietor will be joined behind the booth by Mr Bill Whitten of Grand Mal fame. After recording a slew of indie and major label releases as the leader of St. Johnny, Whitten founded Grand Mal, which, five albums and dozens of tall tales down the line, has become an undeniable New York institution (go here to read a little more about Bill and here to read a lot more about Bill). You can expect him to play all the greats - particularly classic New York punk, British glam, and all the Stones and Stooges and Groovies as well. Got rock if you want it!
