I first hear Dave Rabbit in 1985 while in boarding school. No one who listened was ever sure if it was for real. Could this really be an underground radio show taped in a brothel during the Vietnam War? The tape had been duped so many times that the sound quality assured its authenticity. Now, through the joys of the internet, I know it really did happen and wasn't just some stoner in his basement as many suspected.
It seems that Dave recently discovered that others had heard those same tapes and he had a fan base out there on the www. Dave has now blown the dust of his old act and re-purposed the material for a new generation and war. More power to him.
Sure it all sounds sophomoric now but when your 16 and you love classic rock like I did it was pure genius.
You can get the full background here with tons of downloads from the original and newer shows.
