We’re back once again to the Top 3 video for Nov. 10, 2018!
First up today is a band who claims they come from the EU(?) Their name is Jagger Holly. Their bio claims: “Jagger Holly has come to this country to restore to Rock and Roll what has been missing for far too long!! You have all heard of the British invasion, some of you may remember that sad period of music known as disco, perhaps you can recall metal before it was killed. Jagger Holly is bringing a musical revolution that will be rivaled by none the above, this is going to be something new and unmatchable. Be prepared, or at least try to be.”
Yes siree! They’ve got a Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jaggerhollyrocks/

At #2 is Moler. Moler’s bio writes: “Moler will reform in November 2018 for their 25th Anniversary Project. In doing so, songwriters Helen Cattanach & Julien Poulson and David Peacock plan to take the time to write, rehearse, record and release a 2018 update to uniquely Australian pop/punk sounds.”

About Mike in Tokyo Rogers: Mike has been a professional music/TV/radio/anime-related program producer in Japan since the eighties. He began in the music business in 1977 as lead vocalist with the legendary Los Angeles Punk Band, “The Rotters” (Sit on My Face Stevie Nix.). As a university student, he was assistant to the legendary Rodney Bingenheimer (Rodney on the ROQ – KROQ Los Angeles from 1980 ~ 1981.) Mike was the first and only foreigner in Japanese history to become the General Manager of a major Japanese broadcasting station (TV Tokyo owned InterFM).

A recent hit Internet TV program was “The TV Show” (Set Program with “Ninja Slayer”) which, between April – Oct. 2015, garnered over 10 million viewers. He is currently producing and hosting “The Mike Rogers Show” every Sunday live on InterFM 89.7 in Tokyo and Radio Neo in Nagoya 79.5 and nationally broadcast on Radiko.jp (Internet radio).
