Tim Daugherty
Tim Daugherty has played a variety of roles with WONE since the very first day it was on the air. A member of the original staff, he has been heard on every shift around the clock; morning, noon, and nights, even overnights!
These days, Tim is the guy to turn to for a rockin' ride in the evenings! Tune him in weekdays from 7pm - Midnight.
The Rock & Roll Authority as he's been called, (and not just because Daugherty and Authority rhyme so well), is known to drop in weird and little known factoids about almost everything rock-related under the sun. Tune in and see for yourself.

Two famous guitars that belonged to the late Eddie Van Halen will be auctioned off in December. The instruments are valued at between $40,000 and $80,000 but I'm sure some EVH fan, collector of hot item rock memorabilia will jump all over these, outbidding all the rest. The first axe is a…

John Lennon would have turned 80 last Friday but as we are painfully aware, he was murdered by Mark David Chapman outside the Dakota, the New York apartment he shared with Yoko Ono and young son, Sean. This senseless act came just hours after Lennon stopped to sign a copy…

I'd like to wish Bernie Taupin a happy belated birthday. The man who put the words in Elton John's mouth turned 70 last Friday. It's funny to think after my recent birthday how 70 doesn't seem that old. The part that's astounding to me is the two men have collaborated…
