After appearing on 900AM WURD on Sunday, April 15th, Larry West has  decided to simply give himself airtime the only way he knows how;  Through his Heavy Metal Radio Station, Mark Skull Pirate Radio.

Though not an official "pirate radio" station (Larry pays Live365 to  host and play it non-stop), the station was started in June of 2005  with the single goal of trying to give heavy metal a real voice and  introduce listeners both young and old to bands that he enjoyed. This  relationship has also resulted in Larry, who goes by Mark Skull on the  air, a chance to discover artists as well since many listeners send him  tracks by their favorite bands.

On Saturday, April 21st at  7PM, Larry West will take to the airwaves for the first time in nearly  two months to talk about his campaign and play of his favorite heavy  metal and punk tracks. "I haven't had a chance to do a show for a  while, and this is as close as I can get right now," jokes Larry about  the move. "I was actually inspired by Dwight Evans and his Web Cam  chats. I can't do something that nice, but I started kicking myself  when I realized I could just use my station to do something similar."  Stating that he can not have people call into his show since he doesn't  have a way to get them on the air, instead he has opening the door to  questions, thoughts, and comments through both his web site and MySpace  account.

The show is expected to run from 7PM - 11PM, and  Larry has already hinted at the playlist. "I have an MP3 player I take  with me whenever I have to do interviews or events, and I always keep a  playlist of songs to pump me out. It's like they say, 'It's a long way  to the top if you wanna rock and roll!'"
