Liam’s List: Rock Book, Rock Music & Fleet Week – RADIO.COM
EVENT: FLEET WEEK
It’s one of the most popular events in the Bay Area’s event calendar – Fleet Week. The skies are usually booming with the buzz of the blue angels and SF streets jammed with sailors. Both are missing this year. 2020 fleet week is a virtual affair with highlights from past years. For more fly on over to the website.
BOOK: LENNY KRAVITZ
He rocked onto the musical map in 1989 and Lenny Kravitz would go on to win four Grammy Awards and to sell more than 40 million records. His new memoir, “Let Love Rule,” follows his childhood and early career up to the release of his breakout album. It’s an honest, warts and all look at the making of a rock star who rocks!

MUSIC: BON JOVI SINGS OF THE TIMES
“Do What You Can” from Bon Jovi’s 15th studio album “2020.” Jon Bon Jovi was inspired by the coronavirus pandemic and racial injustices that came together a head this year.

Place your order here.
