    He was the best. Already missing Pierre. So many rock stars have paid tribute to him.  Ed Roland broke down talking about his friendship with Pierre. The concert sold out in 5 minutes. I thought about trying for tickets but think it’s gonna be kind of depressing.

    Matt Cord coming back to WMMR to take over Pierre's shift.  Perfect choice.

    Cool. I hardly ever listen - don't really want to be subjected to commercials or that band the people like to tell me sounds like Led Zeppelin (seriously, fuck off with that shit).

    I listen to Preston and Steve then always liked Pierre with the blocks especially.

    that's a good choice. Thought they might go with Pierre's intern, Ryan (or maybe Pancake).

    Only in the Trump era does it "make any sense" to fire basically the only woman on the show. Or maybe Marissa was enough to be the token. Fuck corporate radio.

    Pretty sad - Marra's is closed. My family used to go all the time. I think the quality decreased or maybe I got snobbish, or maybe both. There wasn't much else on East Passyunk back when, except stores for jeans and first communion outfits.

    Yeah, this is a bummer. Such a great design on the building too.  I haven't eaten in at Marra's in years, but it's my go to for italian takeout when we're feeling lazy but want to fancy it up a bit.

    so WMMR had a tribute concert last night for Pierre Robert and are recapping on the Preston and Steve show and they said Pearl Jam donated $15,000 in Pierre's name to  his favorite charity MANNA.  Pretty cool.
