As you may recall, Stretch Riedle was the DJ at KFJC Radio whose LOUIE LOUIE shows inspired the big Maximum LOUIE LOUIE marathon […] I am deeply saddened to report the passing of our dear friend Martin G. Cameron. Three days after my mother’s ashes were laid to rest, Martin died peacefully in his sleep. I learned about his death from his Facebook page. Martin aka “Bucky” was a truly a kindred spirit at LOUIE project. We all […] I lost my mother almost two weeks ago. She was an exceptional being on so many different levels.

Denis Diken shared the news on his Facebook page on Tuesday night. Today we mourn the loss of our friend, brother and bandmate Pat DiNizio. Pat had the magic touch. He channeled the essence of joy and heartbreak into hook-laden three minute pop […] The website appears to be hacked by some outside forces, and I’m not quite sure how to fix the problem, but I was able to get it working again with a different WordPress theme. Stand by as I try to figure this stuff out… One week ago, my good friend Jeff Riedle (aka “Stretch“), who’s been a major advisor to the LOUIE project, suffered a cardiac arrest on Saturday night, and has been in the hospital ever since.
