Gotta Two Pack Habit And A Motel Tan

About Me


Dick York basically sums up who I am.

I was a DJ at WRAS Album 88, GSU's student-run college radio station. Album 88 is 100,000 watts yet the last place I lived at can't even pick 88.5 up, and their two hours away from us. Go figure. I use to host Bizarro 88, Nitrate 88, Music for the Prepubescent and Soul Kitchen.
