Last week, we lost another fine human – KFJC disc jockey Pete Dixon<\/strong> aka Roy Ross<\/strong>.<\/p>\n As the KFJC 89.7 FM Facebook page<\/a> points out…<\/p>\n We are heartbroken by the passing of our dear friend Pete Dixon, who left us on Mayhem 1st. During three decades at KFJC, he left his mark in so many ways, both on the air hosting “Beyond Room 222” on Monday nights and behind the scenes as our Production Director. His creativity and wit are infused into so much of what we do at the station and it’s a much sadder place without him.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Any many of the regular readers are aware, KFJC Radio (Los Altos Hills, California) was ground zero for the LOUIE LOUIE documentary project. That was the place for the 63 hour “Maximum LOUIE LOUIE” marathon in Los Altos, California. A lot of things took place at this event as songwriter Richard Berry<\/strong> met original Kingsmen<\/strong> vocalist Jack Ely<\/strong> for the first time, over 800 unique versions of the song LOUIE LOUIE were played at this event, and the seeds were planted for a rather ambitious project. <\/p>\n Nine years ago at KFJC Radio<\/a> on International LOUIE LOUIE Day<\/a>, April 11, 2011, Pete Dixon was the host for a special 5 hour program entitled “The Return of the Invasion of MAXIMUM LOUIE LOUIE<\/a>,” which featured Jeff “Stretch” Riedle<\/strong> (instigator of the KFJC LOUIE marathons), Robyn “Nikki Teen” Braverman<\/strong>, and yours truly.<\/p>\n As was shared by Kat R. on the KFJC Alumni page…<\/p>\n \u201cWhen he shall die, We’re gonna miss this guy.

\nTake him and cut him out in little stars,
\nAnd he will make the face of heaven so fine
\nThat all the world will be in love with night
\nAnd pay no worship to the garish sun.\u201d
