This is a public service announcement warning any and ALL bands that happen to be playing in St. Louis (local and/or touring) to not believe a single word that BEATLE BOB tells you, or at least as it applies to him trying to scam free merchandise from you for “spins” on a radio show. Why? Well, despite what he might claim, Beatle Bob does not—nor has he ever—had anything to do with my radio show, The Wayback Machine (or any other show for that matter), on KDHX. And, as far as I know, he does not have a radio show, period. Does he write for any ‘zines (like he might still claim to do w/Jet Lag, which ceased publication in the mid-’90s) or any online publications like Night Times (also dead) or whatever else he may tell you? Nope! If you doubt me, check the source before giving him free merch. Get the address of the publication or radio station from them, and contact them directly before giving him anything or sending anything to him in the mail. Why am I on this crusade? Well, I have proof that he’s lying and cheating his way to scam records off of bands. Below is a quote from an email I received from David Rhan of the Carbonas, who played at the Creepy Crawl recently. I couldn’t make it to the show, but obviously Beatle Bob did:

I talked to that Beatle Bob guy, he said he knew you & helped run your radio show, and that if I gave him an LP he’d see that you’d get it. So I gave him 2 records, one for him and one for you.

Obviously, I’ve not received any LP from Beatle Bob. Never have, never will. I wonder how long he’s been saying this to bands! Furious, I contacted our station manager to see if there was anything else we could do about this. Here’s what she wrote:

We have already had a letter sent from our attorney telling him to cease and desist representing himself as part of this station. The problem is twofold. First, it will cost us money to go any further legally and second, whatever the hold is this guy has, it’s very real and our publicly putting him down makes us look bad. The best thing to do is let any bands you’re in touch with know that he has no affiliation to the station and if they want to give him free product just because he’s Beatle Bob, that’s up to them, but it’s not going to get them any airplay.

So there you have it. Be forewarned, that’s all I can say. If he tells you he has ANY affiliation w/KDHX, he’s lyin’ through his teeth. And like I stated above, this should be enough evidence for you to check out anything else he might tell you in order to get free records, CDs, t-shirts… whatever bands are willing to bestow onto this loser “because he’s Beatle Bob.”
