The Friday Rock Show - 35 - Aul’ Skool

Get ready for a rollercoaster of emotions this week on the Friday Rock Show. Adrian and Tony spin classic tracks from bands like AC/DC and Metallica, but the real story is Boba Fenton's tragic tale of love found and lost at university. Through a series of letters, he chronicles his whirlwind romance with the enigmatic Yana, their painful breakup, and his endless yearning to rekindle their connection. From her brother's birthday party to her own alcohol-fueled celebration, Boba pursues his dream girl with reckless abandon. Yet their bathroom tryst only leaves him more confused.  Has he lost Yana forever? Boba's raw outpourings perfectly embody the euphoria and heartbreak of young love. His letters add intimate poignancy to Adrian and Tony's musical journey through the best of classic rock. Tune in for an emotional ride you won't soon forget. Aul’ Skool is a retro lovin’, halcyon, gimlet-eye view of successful rock artists being nearly creatively healthy in 1987 (when our Friday Rock Show was first spat out), only for said rockers to be haggard, stale and still hanging on decades later… Just like us to be fair.  Who said rock was for the young? They’re dead now! We go Aul’ Skool with AC/DC, Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Doro and Judas Priest! They play us their hollow, jaded updated versions of themselves. As artists they say they have grown. Grown what though? Grown rancid carbuncles! Bigger? Better? Bullshite! Listen what you think on The Friday Rock Show Aul’ Skool special…  There’s correspondence from Dick Roache, ignoble flaccid member of the Irish parliament, worrying about everyone being unemployable again, Orcun The Keskin worrying about everything else and DJ Grooverider being ‘banged up in the Arabs’ as he puts it, in his mockney twang. And then there’s Boba Fenton. Boba has had it hard with women. So Boba wrote to the Friday Rock Show to explain. Over 4 distraught emails! So we bring you an exciting love-lorn quadrilogy ‘What is it with Women Eh?’  But wait! Achtung baby! It’s Doro Pesch! Ich liebe dich für immer! There's nothing The Friday Rock Show likes more than to squeeze the stars into our tiny, dingy, slightly Limburger-smelling studio. And that's what we did with German Metal icon Doro Pesch many moons ago. And what a lovely lady our little Nackenbrecher was.  DJ Adgeen Byrne was agog at her radiating Germanliness and I could only gurn spasmodically, grab me root and kneel nervously ahind the mixing desk. Along the way we did manage to get a few words out of her and, lucky for youse, I taped it! From the FRS 35, Aul' Skool, this is real Warlock babaay. Ja for sure! And, yep, you eagle-eared eejits, Doro wasn't sure we understood the song title ‘Herzblut’. But we did, or at least I did. Adgeen couldn't stop staring. Herzblut is indeed 'Heartsblood' meaning, like: "My thousand daily lusts after young ones are like great chains of iron on my spirit, and my soul shrivels inside me as if weeping heart's-blood from a thousand cuts, as I realise I am too old to get me hole from them". Now yis understand? Knorke! A&M create original, scripted, character & plot-driven comedy dramas. We construct fully immersive HD audio adventures. More than just a podcast, something much stranger. #frs  #fridayrockshow #audiofilm  Promo video: https://youtu.be/n1uX0gJCR-I?si=QSBKpKCmf8Aovptv © Copyright A&M.
