I never met Unkle Roger, but
my son Aaron Christiano ( Manaia ) did and had a
great deal of respect and admiration for the
man. On behalf of my late son,and my self, I am
greatful to a man and his mission to promote
local talent and to give these kids a forum to
express themselves. Thanks Unkle Roger. See you
on the other side.

I remember Rog fondly. Mostly
from my childhood. Suzanne (formerly Sidmore)
Farley used to work @ Leighton Ave and date
Walter, another CMF jock, was a tenant of my
parents. Later on I met him at a Northern Star
show at Art Stock's Playpen North (he was there
w/Janet {from another planet}. . . He always
took the time to talk and listen to what us club
hoppers had to say.

WOOOHOOO...Finally the BIG
weekend is here. I want to thank everyone that
has helped me get to here. There are way to many
to name on here. I know our Unk is proud. I am
still amazed at the support I have gotten from
everyone, from bands to sponsors! Jeff...I can't
tell you what you mean to me. We make a good
team, don't ya think!
Anxiously waiting to see everyone over the next
few days. I can't help but think...Life goes by
too fast, if only we had thought to have done
this before Rog was so suddenly taken, but then
again, he was so humble, he probably wouldn't
have let us.
If you can feel my heart Rog...then you know
that this is so bittersweet for me. I love and
miss you more now than ever. I know you will be
right there with us all this weekend as we honor
you. I know your heart is at peace. Meet me on
the other side my friend.
XOXOXO

I've been trying to come up
with the right words to say about a man who was
a pioneer in the Rochester music seen. An
individual that essentially created a format for
local musicians to achieve airplay and speak
about the music they created. I'm not sure how
it works in other cities but, what Roger was
able to accomplish in his many years at CMF was
amazing. The homegrown albums, the homegrown
show itself!!, the live club appearances and who
can forget "The all night Rock n' Roll caf'e" ?
Unk touched so many, many of our lives. He had
that special quality that really made you feel
great about yourself & the music. He will
forever remain the backbone of our local music
seen. I know, I can speak for my fellow band
mates when I say-we have been really looking
forward to playing this tribute show in Unk's
memory for months. And now the time has finally
arrived. Let us celebrate his life & do him
proud by putting on our best for him and his
family.

Lisa you are a very good
person and I am proud to have you as my friend.
The story on Rnews was great and it just showed
how much people cared for Rog. It's going to be
a great weekend. Seeing great bands that we
haven't seen in awhile and most important
keeping the memory of Unk going :)
See everyone on Friday!!!!!
