Meet The Pick Family
From the dawn of time Shaggy had always been interested in classic rock music. Being inspired from a young age by the music his Father blasted while driving in his truck, Shaggy knew his journey was far from over. The power of rock flowed through Shaggy’s fingers as he taught himself to play guitar, bass, drums, etc, even playing in rock bands over the years. Shaggy only found it natural to become a radio DJ. Feel free to challenge him to a rousing game of classic rock trivia! He’ll win.

Such fond memories of school, The Cruise, concerts at the Mini-Dome, working at The Record Bar in the Grand Teton Mall…perusing other record stores, like Budget Tapes and Records, and The Brass Ear…ahhhhhh, MEMORIES!!!
