Robert Derhak is so anxious to start making music again after overcoming cancer that he is taking to the airwaves as a DJ later this afternoon. Following his (thankfully) successful treatment for nasopharyngeal cancer and his imminent return to the stage, the moe. bassist is dusting off his musical cobwebs with a special guest DJ set on Portland, Maine’s 98.9 WCLZ today at 1pm est. The station has a rock focus, although some bluegrass and other affiliated genres get a fair amount of play as well. Here’s hoping Derhak slips in some moe. magic as well as some of his inspirations–like the mind-boggling mayhem of Frank Zappa–into his set.

If you aren’t close enough to tune in on your radio dial, you can follow along on with 98.9 WCLZ‘s online live stream via their website here. The online platform also includes information about the songs played, so you can follow along with what records rob. has spun so far, and learn the details behind the songs as they’re played.

Check out Rob Derhak’s 98.9 WCLZ guest DJ spot today at 1pm, and don’t miss moe.’s triumphant return to the road throughout this year as both the band and its fans celebrate the recovery and return of their brother on the bass!
