Greetings Citizens,

​

Dr David Jamie McDonald 77MD PPQ SIR, your musical chauffeur, here.

​

The Live Now Die Later radio show began life as the ProgZone, way back in early 2005/6. Over the years we changed name's of the show from Prog yes to Bad to the bone to Dr nightmare's to Metal at night till we found the name we have to day Live Now Die Later.

Over the years we changed we moved from the house to the road, but the mission was always the same: showcase the best in rock blues, blues-rock, roots music, R&B, soul, jazz, straight up rock… and all points in between.

​

We ran a music festival for a good few years across europe the World called Zombie Night's 

​

I put the spotlight on new releases from old favorites and newbies.  I played the crusty, the fresh, the seasoned, and the raw, featuring wide-ranging interviews with the musicians themselves, and many live in-house concerts, recorded exclusively for the Live Now Die Later radio show.

​

The show would not of had the style of rock metal and blues and the way it was broadcast with out the input of my 70s rock fan of my dad he's story's and tells made me bring you my story's and the story of my dad listening to bands like Queen, Black Sabbath and more.

​

The more Soul RNB and blues came from my Mum Pam who loved the sounds of Etta James, aretha Franklin and The beetles and also pop music from the early 80s. 

​

I now give thanks to the stations,  producers, managers, agents, and all those hard workers who put the “business” in show business, and bigger thanks to all the players and fans who keep the show going.  This series, alas, has gone as far as it can go. Our final broadcast will be 18 October 2020 at midnight.

​

There is a crossroads dead ahead. 15+ years is a long time without a turn. We may turn left, or right, but we will no longer go forward.  Time for a new direction, a new road.  For us, the end of this one.

​

This is not the end of Jamie or his family been in the spotlight or media eye.

​

And so we leave you to your journey.  Please tip a cold one for us before you continue on your way.  Watch our tail lights as we vanish in the distance, then get back to it.

​

Remember:  The blues never dies.  It will never run out of road.   That road goes on forever.

And thanks for riding along.

​

Yours,

The Live Now Die later Team.
