The New Golden Voice of the Hawkeye Marching Band - Bob Shomper

It's Homecoming week! John & Tim are honored to talk to the new Golden Voice of the Hawkeye Marching Band, 1970's HMB alum, Mr. Bob Shomper! Bob marched in the early 70s under Dr. Tom Davis and has an extensive career in radio!

Let Bob tell you about it! Bob, a fellow Quad City-ian connects with John over their shared roots and stories of the radio world. Bob talks about his time in the HMB, the football not being quite on par with the music put out by Dr. Tom Davis! Some favorite shows included Bye Bye Beatles and Get It On. Bob talks about the audition and tryout process for becoming the new Golden Voice, and all his admiration for Lou Crist.
