Fitz

The Fitz Mix Is Rock and Roll, Pop, But Mainly Bluegrass

About Me

I was born in Quincy, Mass. I was raised in Pembroke, Mass. Then we moved to Darien, CT for a couple of years and then (with much drama) we moved to Alexandria, VA in the fall 1968...yes right near DC, the heart of the roadblock of American life. This year, 2008 will make it 40 years in the DC area. I got into radio in the year 2000 and I've been doing my own radio show since 2002. I am (believe it or not) a conservative. By the way I'm a big Nationals fan. And my real name is Mike Fitzgerald.
