Kevin McLaughlin & Charlie Ocean

Worx has always had a good working relationship with local radio.  In the 80's it was WAPI - I-95 in B'ham, AL.  The late Bernie Dittman (owner) gave Worx their first shot on the Mark & Brian Show.

After the bands' migration to Mobile, WAVH 106.5 The Pirate was a key player in the band's exposure in 2006 - 2009.

       Back in 1995, I moved back home for a while and was mowing the lawn for my dad.  I stopped for a second and heard the DJ on the radio say he was giving the 10th caller tickets to see the band Cinderella.  Yup, I got the 10th call and went up to the station to pick up the tickets.  When I got there, I ran into a friend from highschool, Will Thomas.  He informed me that the band was actually in the control room doing an on-air interview.  He told me to hang around and would let me meet the band. 

I also got to meet the P.R. girl for the band.  She gave me a promotional picture of the band and had the guys in the band sign it.  We all hung out at the station for about 15 minutes just talking about.....well, I can't remember.  But the point is that we had a good time and the show was a blast.  Between songs, the lead singer said, "You know why you don't see us on MTV anymore?  It's because they don't play (fn) rock and roll anymore!!!"
