 Who Is Eddie Trunk?              
Someone You Should Know If You Wanna Rock!
 
"Eddie Trunk is a 30 year music industry veteran who has built a reputation for being one of the most respected personalities in the world of Hard Rock and Heavy Metal.  Eddie has spent time as a record executive and has also worked in artist management, but has really found his calling as a broadcaster..." more...

Throw Backs
Is It Fall Yet?
              
It's about that time to start thinking about fantasy football!! If you are interested in playing in the Retro Active Fantasy Football League, email us at newsletter@shopretroactive.com. Priority will be given to returning players in good standing (i.e. you played thru the whole season and didn't just blow it off) then it will be first come, first serve. I'll have details about the draft next month.
