I don’t typically post anything negative, but I am very angry right now.

“My daughter and her friend were at the park. A couple of kids shouted out a lot racist comments at my daughter. My daughter is one of the sweetest girls that you will ever meet. Racism is bred. So, I said that to say this. For those of you racist people in Freeburg, if you don’t know me, you will.”

Rolling Stones drummer Steve Jordan was part of the recording of Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll, the Keith Richards documentary filmed at the Fabulous Fox in honor of Chuck Berry. A KSHE 95 host calls the conversation "a really special one" and "an interview I'll remember forever". Roll over, Beethoven.
