FMQB congratulates Beasley Rock WMMR/Philadelphia’s legendary midday host Pierre Robert, who celebrates a milestone this month: 35 straight years broadcasting in Philadelphia at one station.
Imported from San Francisco in 1981, Pierre Robert has entertained Philadelphia daily with his iconic voice and passion for Everything That Rocks which resonate with a city that truly loves him.
During his illustrious career, Robert has covered every major event including Live Aid in 1985, Live 8 in 2005, Woodstock ‘94 and the Concert for Amnesty International, plus countless tours from The Rolling Stones, The Who, Pearl Jam and hundreds more. He has attended more concerts, shaken more hands and touched more lives with his on-going support of local charities and his continued community service than any other Philadelphian. His longevity and accomplishments truly make him one of a kind.
“Where’s Pierre?” is the most posed question in the city. The answer for 35 years has been 93.3 WMMR in Philadelphia.
