Fred “Snowball” Rivera the award winning author, the accomplished musician, the voice of 949 The Bridge, the friend, the father, the mentor. A many of many lives indeed. We know Fred as many things, but we are lucky enough to call him a friend.

Freddie is a big character and deserves a big guitar to match and the Memphis built 02 Gibson es335 seems to do the job just right!

Find out a little more about Snowball for our guest spotlight in this months shop updates and things happening email.

Welcome to Johnny’s nightmare!!

It’s not often we get this type of cinema gold from Johnny… 🤣

I’m not sure how many times we’ve watched this but all you can hear at the shop right now are a bunch of bleeps and a golly.

Pure comedy wrapped up in flannel and topped with a cowboy hat!

Welcome to the S*** Show! 🤣 25 seconds of what we now refer to as “The F***** Bloopers” and we wish they never ended!!!
